ings or mar the pleasures of the day.
Perhaps the most remarkable Tea
ture of the day was the great num-
Der of republicans who gathered TO
partake of the Inequalities of the DEM
ocratic hosts, to listen to democratic
doctrines and to mingle with the hap
DIV throng. Many men who have never
heretofore voted anything except
republican ticket Joined in the festiv-
tiles of the occasion; were loud In their
applause of the speakers, and hearty
in congratulations to those who mad
the management of the affair in hand.
All in all it was a glad day for the
local democracy; 1T was the opening
Of the county campaign and under such
circumstances as warrants the predic-
ton that at the November election Chill
ton county will write herself as one OF
the counties in the state which has re-
pudiated republicanism and swung
back to it's ancient mornings.
So enthused were the younger gen
Grafton with the proceedings of the
day that they arranged to carry 1t into
the night They engaged the services
of a local band and to its strains they
tripped the light fantastic and at the
sa me time poured into the ears of their
fair partners the principles of democ-
racy as expounded by the orators of the
day

Sheriff of Chiffon county, j. S. Cats, has
confined in the jail at Cianton a man who
goes by the name of Ed c. Phipps, and
seems to be 80 years of age and weighs

days ago accompanied by a little while
girl who appears to be or 8 years OF
age. She is an exceedingly smart child
and is a pronounced blond. Her clothing
is extremely neat and her conversation Is
above that of the average child. The
man claims that he is dope fiend and
that he was run away from his home
by his wife and when leaving took his
little daughter with him. The child does
not act as the daughter of the man and
the sheriff of Chiffon county thinks that
he has imprisoned a kidnaper, as the
man seemed DESTROYS before his impris-
onment, to give the child away.
This information is sent out in order
that any one who has lost a child of
the above description may get a trace of
her whereabouts. A photograph of the
man or child can be secured at a nominal
cost by application to the sheriff. There
is no doubt whatever, 1t is alleged. but
that the child has been kidnapped. and.
that this information will be gratefully
received by some broken-hearted mother.

CATARRH OF BLADDER and KIDNEYS
A Frequent AND DREADED DISEASE
Pres. NeWIs0f Promptly
Relieved BY Pe-ru-na.


c. b. Newhof, 10 Delaware street,
Albany, N. Y, President Montefiore
Club, writes:
"since my advanced age 1 find that
have been frequently troubled with
urinary ailments.
1.-THE bladder seemed irritated. and
my physician said that 1t was catarrh
caused by a protracted cold which
would be difficult to overcome on ac-
count of my advanced years.
81 took Peruna. hardly daring to be-
iieve that 1 would be helped. but l
found to my relief that I soon began to
mend.
"The irritation gradually subsidized
and the urinary difficulties passed
away.
II have enjoyed excellent health now
Sor the past seven months.
81 enjoy my meals. sleep soundly,
and am as we'll as I was twenty years
ago. I give all praise to Peruna."
Liver and Kidney Trouble
Mr.. George Forester, 2747 Mascher
street, Philadelphia, Pa, writes: I'VE
have great faith in Peruna.
my wife's condition was such that
abe thought she would die, as the doc
tors could not help her dyspepsia and
catarrh of the stomach. Now she can
eat anything. We keep Peruna in the
house all the time, but it is only once
In a while that she needs to use 1t.
II was subject to liver and kidney
trouble, which resulted in rheumatic
pains, but 1 have not had pain since
! took Peruna, and very little liver
trouble, as Peruna keeps the digestive
organs in good working order, and
that is the main thing"
