CHAPTER XVI.

I was the first of May, and the
annual reunion of the Confederate
veterans was being held in At
lanta. 1t was the gala week of the
year. Every town and city in the
south sent its official representatives
and it's maids of honor. The hotels
were crowded and the streets thronged
with an homogeneous multitude wear
ing badges of ribbon. Southern gen.
erals and their wives and daughters
were holding gay receptions. Every
body was welcome; hands were ex-
tended to people from the north as well
as from the south. Shouts filled the
air when the carriage of an ex-Con-
federate officer passed through the
streets. The bands played Dixie"
Men, SCARED and manned, stood on the
street corners and in the bars and
hotels and told war stories and sang the
praises of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall
Jackson. All was mirth and good feel
ing. From the public buildings, the
clubs, hotels and carriages fioated the
American flag. 1t hung everywhere.
but it was never %applauded and yet
never Kissed. 1t was beautiful to look
upon and stood for peace, patriotism
and prosperity. The southerners would

ginia family who lived in one of the
best houses in Peachtree street. George.
Buckley was in the city, but he had
gone only to attend to the work of in
specting the books of a broker who
handled considerable grain and cotton
for the barley house.
The broker, Mr.. Harry Stone. was a
young man of high social standing in
Atlanta, n he had formed a strong
friendship for George and extended the
hospitality of the best club in the place
to him and offered to introduce him
to his friends. blu George ~refrained
from accepting. He was too fine a
man to feel at ease in general, society
so early after his fathers disgrace. and
Stone understood thisa and did not press
those things upon him.

On the several rivers that trav-

of 26,274 acre feet, fifty per cent.
of which is completed; the La
Jara reservoir on the La Jara
river, l4,05I acre feet completed /;
the Union reservoir the Elk Creek

Los Pinos and San Antonio rivers,
which hold 10000 acre feet.
Some of these are already com
pleted insuring the investor in

No Damages for Meyer.

The U. S. supreme court Tues

suit for damages from ex-governor
Peabody. Meyer was imprisoned
in the city Jail at Telluride by the
state militia during the miners
strike several years ago.
Among other things the
court says: "The governor had a
right under the state constitution
and laws to call out troops. The
constitution is supplemented by
an act providing that when an in
vasion of or insurrection in the
state is made or threatened, the
governor shall order the national
guard to repel or suppress the same.
That means that he may make the
ordinary use of the soldiers to that
end; that he may kill persons who
resist and of course, that he may
use the milder methods of seizing
bodies of those whom he considers
to stand in the way of restoration
of peace. The governor is the

food souring; the digestive organs
become weak, there is lack of gas

digested, and you become affected

the stomach, bad taste in mouth,
constipation, pain in limbs, sleep
lessness, belching of gas, bilious
ness, sick headache. nervousness,
dizziness, and many other similar
symptoms.
If your appetite is tickle, and
nothing tempts you, or you belch
gas or if you feel bloated after
eating, or your food lies like a
lump of lead on your stomach, you
can make up your mind that at the
bottom of all this there is but one
