E. G. Fowler the Druggist will give You Your Money Back if MI.O-NA Does Not Cure Dyspepsia.
IS THIS A SQUARE. DEAL?

E. c. Fowler makes this square deal or fer because he is authorized to do SD bv the makers of Mi-o-na tablets ana he Is willing to have this statenisn. appear in The Advertiser because he knows the offer Is genuine.
 And while it may be that there are about eight cases In 10 that are too iar gone for Mi-o-na to cure. we are Will ing and ready to take all the chances and if Mi-o-na does not cure, any dys- peptic can have his money back.
 Even with this liberal offer. E' S' Fowler will not have to rerund put very small percentage, because the o incurable dyspeptics will find so much relief in Ml-o-na that they will once again look upon the sunny side or hte' and will continue to use Mi-o-na.
 Now, reader. you may say how can the makers of Mi-o-na make such an offer? How do they know that s2 per cent of the users will be cured. and that the other per cent, or the incurables' will be relieved?
 Why. it's all very simple. We've made this same offer in l,OOO towns be- fore we made 1t here. and we have fig ured out the percentages. so that when we make the statement we know 1t To be absolutely true.

EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY.

Girl Drugs Official Passenger On a
 Train.
 Berlin, Oct, 10-A young official Of the Ministry of the Interior has been the victim of an extraordinary rob bery while travelling from Dresden 10 Berlin.
 At Roederau, an important junction a young lady entered bis compartment. where he was seated alone. She was elegantly, but quietly dressed. The nolite official speedily got into conver" sation with the lady. who sat opposite him. and it occurred to him afterwards that she bent towards him in a re- markable manner. smiling in a some- what unusual way.
 The official states that two stations after Roederau he felt remarkably sleepy. He struggled against the tn- clination to sleep, but must have fallen into A profound slumber, for he did not awaken until the train had arrived in Berlin and the guard had opened the door of his carriage. His lady com nauion. and the guard noticed at once that a peculiar ojor prevailed the com partment, -
 Happening to put his hand In his breast pocket. the official found to his dismay that his pocket-hook, contain. ing HOO marks was gone. and that his valuable rings, which he had also placed in his pocket book had disap. peared, as well as his loose cash and several other valuables, including a gold watch and chain.
 All he could say about his travelling compa on was that she was a young lady of prepossessing appearance, with fair hair and brown eyes, speaking German with an English accent.

MODERN EDUCATIcN.

It Benefits Only . Small Fraction Of
 the Children of the Nation.
 For all the educational system seems to be aware. every boy who no graduate. spend four. years in high school, pass on to college. and event ually become a professional or busi- ness man. says Rheta Childe Dorr, in the November Delineator: The schools do not seem to know that any wo- men outside the teaching profession earn their living. That thousands upon thousands of children. girls as well as boys, are obliged by the hard conditions of life to go to work with seems to be utterly unknown.
 The best proof that the educational system has Jagged behind is the fact that 1t is impossible to induce the great majority, of children to remain in school q day longer than the law oblires them to. They flee from the school room at fourteen, most of them 20 to work and the rest of them to learn work. They want to learn 10 live. and they are not taught that lesson in the school room.
 At the time the public school sys- tenn was placed on national basin all the educators were agreed on one com mon ideal which was that the schools must be democratic. Courses of stu1y absolute equality of all American citfEsns. Therefore. the curriculum was arranged as a series of ladders, leading from the primary school to the grammar school; from the gram mar school to the high school; from the high school to college, and from college to the White House.
 This was intended to be demo- cratic program. It was. in fact, en- tireIy aristocratic. since it redounded to the advantage of the children of the prosperous and the intellectual
 Fully o5 per cent of school children never advance beyond the grammar grades, and less than two per cent of high school pupils pass on to col- lege. public school administration would lge these facts for its main basis. Since an overwhelmir ' majority of children will never receive any more education than they get In elementary school, the proper elementary school would b, not a link In a chain, but a complete thing in itself; a complets education of very practical nature. its object would be to educate chtl- dren for a world of industrial pur- suitS,

The Kentucky campaign and its pre- lininaries marked the beginning of wheeler's career with cavalry and We may as well return to the considera- tion of his performances in these events. His rank in the army until Bragg escaped from Kentucky. back to Knoxville, was Colonel of Infantry and his assigned command was the 18th Alabama. Bragg selected him for the command of the cavalry. However. when at Pensacola, in the early months of the war, as First Lieutenant of Artillery, he received the commission of Colonel of Infantry.

 were safely sunk after the crossing was completed.
 This excursion of Forrest surpassed in continuous exertion any achievement of his on record. It displayed a high CT military genius than any achieve ment of his. His pursuit of Streight few months later, required endurance and fixedness of purpose and the re- suit was superb. but the west Tennes- see campaign occupying the latter half of the month of December, discover ed in the leader genius for aggres- sive warfare. the counterpart to which is hard indeed to find. He re-crossed the Tennessee on his two flat boats in the first days of January, 1883. having been engaged in open field with sev- erai times his numbers covering an area the depth of the state of Tennes- see for nearly two weeks. It was . marvellous success.
 The army that Bragg brought back from Kentucky was distributed early In December. 1882. along the beautiful and fertile valley on either side of Murphreesboro about fifteen miles. The infantry was given rest, but the cavalry were extremely active. For rest we have accounted for. John H. Morgan was sent on raid into Ken lucky, both of these expeditions with the purpose Tn GOfIitnuHg tO ulSCOuCcEt and delay the enemy. General Wheeler was kept always busy between Mur- bhreesboro and Nashville. The enemy averred they could not get an ear of corn in the valley because of the enter prise of Wheeler's men. A most in- teresting and suggestive incident of the work here of Wheeler's cavalry was the interest manifested by the young daughters of the farmers of the coun- try andJtheir brave espousal of the Con- federate cause. At least one volun- teered to go into Nashville and bring out drawings of the Notifications about the city and other valuable informa- ton. The arrangement was that on a day named a certain hollow stump In the vicinity would contain the draw ings, where Wheeler,s scouts would find them. The agreement was executed to the fullest in all details. Miss Polk mounted her horse to visit a neighbor few miles away Hav- ing dismounted at her destination the family were surprised to discover In the distance some cavairymen in blue approaching. Miss Polk immediately sprang into her saddle and rode at full speed across the fields and fences to warn some of wheeler's men whom she had left at her home of their peril. Her warning was in time, but at great rick

CHANDLERPARD0NED
CASE OF PECULIAR INTEREST FROM
 CLEBURNE.
Smith Was Intfmidatlng the Chandler Brothers With a Pistol When He Was Killed in
 ScuMIe.

With a little delay after he had read the facts presented to him, Gov. ernor Conner yesterday gave pardon to Will Chandler, white convict of Cieburne County, who was found guilty of manslaughter only last September 23. There was every effort made to hurry the proceedings in behalf of Chandler. as 1t was believed an injus- tice was being done him for every hour he spent in the penitentiary.
 The Circuit Court jury before whom the case against Chandler was tried returned a verdict little more than two weeks ago against the defendant. The jury under the instructions or the court, who was also bound by .technicality, had to return verdict of guilt. The sentence was for ono wear. which was the limit of the law rninirnum of the statute for manslaugh- ter.
 The circumstances of Chandier's al- fered Killing are still fresh in the minds of those familiar with the par ties Last summer Chandler was en- gagged in a diflculty with another white man named W. A. Smith In Cle- burne County. Smith ts alleged 70 have jerked out his pistol and level. ing 1t at his antagonist commanded htr, n droo on his knees and remain thus hurnilated for a few minutes A brother of Chandler arrived on eae scere. 1t is said, and pleaded with smith to desist from further humilia- tion of his brother, whersupon on,sn s,an switched the gun from Will Chandier ta bIs hrother. whom he commanded 10 keep his mouth out of the trouble or words to that effect .S

In spite of all that General Buckner could do. the, Kentuctians turned a cold shoulder to the invaders. It was determined to begin the retreat on two parallel roads, both bad. and neither passing through a territory prepared to feed a large body of men,. These two roads ran nearly parallel, several miles apart. but converged in the southern part of Kentucky upon the main highway to Cumb erland Gap, Tenn. Bragg's objective in retreat Smiths army took the eastward road and Bragg's' column thes other, pass ing through Crab Orchard.
 Bragg sent for Colonel Wheeler and instructed him to protect, at all haz-. ards. the retreating column on the two roads. Buell. would follow in great force. no doubt. and 1t was known that his cavalry alone was about dou-. ble' Bragg's force.

 Don't think this Is approved by all ! Union men. Thousands of them are citizens of the best quality but they are In bad company and are most arbi- trarily ruled by the managers in power. These peaceable members look forward to the time when the boy cott, strike. plcketing. fighting. spoil Ing machinery, cutting harness, stop ping funerals, blowing up workmen and homes, hate of the most intense kind slugging and murder will stop and the present managers who lie about their peaceful" intentions while winking at and supporting the crimes will be replaced by honest working men in an. honest and lawful manner not prejudicial to the rights of the common people. When labor contracts will be made like other contracts with out coercion, threats or violence. when a builder can safely agree upon the price of brick, lumber. glass, iron and labor in his building and the manufac- turer can safely, agree to sell his ma chimes or other products in this or for elgn countries based upon certain and given cost for material and labor without danger of ruin by violence and destruction of his plant. and when communities of citizens can depend upon the steady running of the Indus trial establishments upon which such communities depend for daily living Then. and only then. will this labor warfare" cease and the tremendous cost and harm to the common nnn be done away with.
