Garrett N. Walrod Found Guilty

Garrett M. Walrod was fined SIS
and costs in criminal court yesterday
afternoon by Judge James A. Pritch-
ard, who found him guilty OF criminal
ly libeIing James A. Everitt, former
president of the American Society of
Equity of North America.
Everitt filed the affidavit against
Walrod. o. d. Pauley and G. M. Bar
nett, charging them with addressing a
letter to the agricultural press of the
United States" which falsely accused
Everitt OF crooked practices. 1t was
averred by Everitt that this letter was
mailed to number of people in va
rious parts of the country and that it
stated slanderous, defamatory and ma
licious accusations. Pauley and Barnett
have not been tried yet. as they asked
for separate trials. The filming OF Wal
rod was an unusual proceeding, as few
persons have been found guilty in
criminal court of criminal libel. Evil
dence in the case was heard several
weeks ago. The trouble between
Everitt and the defendants grew out
of disagreement among the officers
and leaders of the American Society
of Equity of North Anne RIGA. Indian

Great Corn Year.

In the season just ended American
farmers produ ed 2.767, 600, 600 bushels
of corn, worth 81. 720. 600, 900. Consld-
ering quantity. quality and price, this
is the prOudest record of the American
corn farm.
To have raised the best one ear of
corn out of the tremendous crop is a
distinction of no small magnitude.
The honor belongs to Fred Palm, a
farmer of Newton, Ind. 10 signify his
splendid achievement the National
Corn Exposition at Omaha, Neb :,
awarded him the $1,000 trophy. The
$1,000 ear, each kernel of which is
worth 81, is the pride of the possessor.
The exposition awarded another
$1,000 trophy for the best ten ears.
This fell to j. r. Oberstreet, of
Franklin, Ind.
Palm said: 81 put in seven years
growing that ear of corn. My parent
stock consisted of Reeds Yellow Dent
as the male plant. and the Alexander
Gold Standard as the other plant.
The Standard was detasseled the first
two years. This cross produced the
seed from which the worlds best ear
came.
The ear came from among those
selected for seed. My wife picked out
the winning ear, and think that the
credit belongs to her.

Stop Arguing Politics in Church.

Colonel Jack Chinn who was in Lex
ington Monday for the meeting of the
State Racing Commission discussed at
some length recent criticisms of the
saloon element that churches and other
houses of worship were being used
from time to time to propagate the
political fight at present being waged
to make Kentucky a '.dry" State.
Colonel Chinn notes the criticism with
earnest purposes and argees with the
contention that no church should be
used as a place for political propaganda
by either side. as the advocates OF
saloons or against them. He regards
the matter purely political and to this
end he will introduce bill in the next
General Assembly making it mis-
demeanor even to discuss politics in a
house of cubic worship
Colonel Chinn also believes that pub-
lie school houses, when actually not IN
use for class work should be rendered
available by statutory enactment for
debates and public discussions of all
kinds by leaders of thought in the
various committees He believes in
the old-fashion debating society and
his prospective measure Is meant in
no little sense TO stimulate revival
of that interesting custom IN Ken

Champion Kentucky Rooster.

The winner of the double grand prize
at the poultry show in the coliseum,
at St. Louis, Mo-. is a white Wyandote
cockerel, owned by w. E. Johnson &
Son, of Lexington. Ky. One of the
two prizes won by the Lexington
rooster is a silver cup offered for the
whitest bird in the show, the other
being a gold cup offered for the best
male bird in the show.
The importance of the Blue Grass
ROSTERS victory cannot be realized
without bearing in mind that the total
number of fowls entered the show was
more thsn 5000. Johnson left st.
Louis before the awards were made.
Another exhibitor announced the in
tention of offering Johnson 81. 600 for
this prize winning bird. The bird
weighs eight and one-half pounds and
By this offer would be worth SIT 4
pound.

A Constipation
Remedy Free

There is no action of your daily
life of greater importance than to see
that your bowels move They should
move at least once day naturally,
and by that is meant without any help.
If they do not move at least once a
day you can consider yourself con-
stipated and it is time you did some
thing about it.
You will be glad to know there
is a way out Of the difficulty Lem
uel Landerdale, an old soldier at Quincy,
ILL.,, Elmer Mcmillan, Of Speed, Mo-, Mrs
Monahan, of Stonewall, Miss, and many
others were as you are now. But one
day they awoke to the fact that DR..
CaldwelPS Syrup Pepsin was curing their
friends, so they bought it too and it
cured them Today they are loud in
praise of it
What DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin did
for them it should do for you. Surely your
constipation is no worse than theirs one
of whom had it since 81. 1t only remains
temporary good, and what you want is
permanent cure, that purgative tablets
cathartic pills and such violent things
make a great show Of doing something
but do nothing that is lasting. Dr. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin is a scientific prepa-
ration, laxative-tonic. a mild syrupy
liquid that contains ingredients that not
only cure the constipation, but tone the
intestinal muscles so that they learn
again to work without help. A bottle can
be bought of any druggist for the small
price of so cents, and there is a dollar
size for families who have already found
out its wonderful value in stomach. liver.

Der. Gen. Early surprised the Eighth
and Nineteenth Corps at a very early
hour in the morning. Some of the boys
in our battery were still in bed. I was
messing with Serg't Mclaughlin. We

boys from the front came dashing thru
our battery. While drinking his coffee
the Sergeant was hit in the groin, from

men of Louisville. who wanted to serve
the cause. in camps across the river at
Jeffersonville.
The first to violate this neutrality
was the Confederate General Polk,
who advanced to Columbus. Ky. to
threaten Cairo, ILL.,, and to begin q
movement to capture Paducah and
Smithland. at the mouths OF the Ten
nessee and Cumberland Rivers. At
Cairo was the alers u. S. Grant. who
seized Paducah and Smithland ahead
of the Bishop. Then Kentucky neutral
ity ceased. the United States troops en-
tered the State to expel the invaders.
and Kentucky cast her lot definitely
with the loyal States. Gen. w. T. Sher-
man was appointed to succeed Gen
Anderson, but owing to one of his un-
fortunate moods. about which there has
been no end of dispute. was finally re-
lieved by Don Carlos Buell., soldier OF

himself up in the mantle of official
dignity, and rigid martinez in military
matters, so that from the first he got
along very badly with those whom he
commanded and the Union men of Ken

Who Remembers the Boy Nurse?

Editor National Tribune: During
many years of careful reading of your
most interesting publication so many
old acqua .ntances have been brought
together thru its columns that l cannot
resist the temptation to forward this
communication. Altho just too young
to be accepted in the service during our
ci-'il war. l was old enough to entertain
very decided views as to the duty of
the American citizen, followed the cam
paigns very closely and did all within
my power for our sailors and soldiers,
and still retain my interest in these
matters. Immediately after the battle
of Fair Oaks (being then about 3 years
of age), lived at New Haven, Conn,
and saw hundreds. or, perhaps, thou
sands, of our wounded men brought to
the Knight General Hospital in that
city, and encouraged by my people, be-
came a boy nurse in the hospital tents.
Some of the names, faces and wounds
of these soldiers still remain clearly
within my recollection. and II is just
possible that thru The National Tribune
may hear something from them or
from their friends. From Minnesota
there was BILLY" Sargent. a boy about
16 years Of age, with both arms ampu-
tated close to the shoulder and with q
wound across the bridge of his nose.
all wounds being from the same ball,
which struck him when throwing his
arms and musket over his head in an
attempt to balance himself on stone
wall From Rhode Island, Richmond,
| a large, light-complexioned, white
| skinned, handsome man, with leg am
putated half way between the knee and
hip. From Ohio, Farren. wounded in
| wrist, ankle and knee. From Indiana,
Olmstead, shot directly thru the bowels,
and. of course, fatally injured. altho
Capt. Bradstreet, of Maine. who was
shot precisely in the same maner, re-
covered, to the astonishment and de-
light of the Surgeons. These instances,
of course, are only few among many
but no man or boy who saw these things
will ever forget them. and possibly
these lines may interest some of the
men still living.-L. X. Gould. Bridge
port. Conn.
