for over thirty-five years, has been
treating catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.
1t is not spray. douche. salve. cream
or inhaler. but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these.
1t cleans out the head. nose. throat and
lungs so that you can again breathe
freely and sleep without that stopped
up feeling that all catarrh sufferers
have 1t heals the diseased mucous
membranes and arrests the foul dis
charge. so that you will not be con-
stantly blowing your nose and splitting.
and at the same time it does not poison
the system and ruin the stomach. as
internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment
without cost. send your address to DR..
j. W. BIoSser. 800 Walton street. All

Near Deep Bottom, Va, Nov. 20,
1864:
Brother John: 1t takes

can Flag. particularly those who have
been confined in Southern prisons. I
have seen those who have been eX-
changed coming down the James River
on rebel flag of truce boat who were
in sight of the old flag. cheer as loud
as their emaciated bodies would permit,
and shed tears of joy at the sight of our
starry emblem of freedom. after looking
SO long on the Southern mongrel cross
and bars. The Southern papers affect
TO be pleased with the election of Lin
coin, and say it will now be united
South against a divided North But
we put no confidence in what the rebel
papers say, as they are all under mill
.tary rule, and do not represent the sem
timents of the Southern people. And
this war when it does end will extin-
guish all the bitter feelings which have
existed between us, and even now you
would be surprised to see the fraternal
feeling which is shown by both sides of
the rank and file of the two armies

ing tobacco and pipes for our coffee

Civil and Military Pensions.

Editor National Tribune: For pur-
poses of either comparison or contrast
Will send an item of recent work of our
Fire Commissioners, to wit, acting as a
Pension Board: Chief Harry Horn was
retired on pension of S112.50 per
month. Mrs. Z. K. Roberts, $50, her
husband having died from injuries re-
ceived while driver of Engine 10. John
Mitchell, $50, retired on account of in
juries while acting as engineer of Co.
80. John Riemers, $50, for 25 years
service with Engine IS Alfred Flor
ence, $50, and Edward McConicIe $50,
both injured while in the service with
Engine 32. This is but a sample of
what is going on in every large city in
the United States. How it ought to put
to shame those who growl at soldiers
pensions heartily approve of it; but
look at the difference in allowances to
the civilians as compared to the SOL
dlers pension. / am aware that a ma
jority of the people of the North and
a portion OF the South favor the Ma
uonal policy; but there Is a large mi
nority that continually find fault be-
cause We voluntarily took the risk, ="
and got only what we expected. Fault
hnding is not confined to those who
were not active participants. Several
eX-soldiers have expressed their diSap-
proval of what is known as the volun-
t'ei oiiiIeiS hoIoE Foll, DecduSe IL pro-
poses to retire officers on a pension to
some extent commensurate with their
rank, as If the private soldier would
thereby be harmed. Has not the like
been done in favor of the eX-officers of
all our previous wars? OF course, those
wars were with foreign Nations; but
the principle and policy should be the
same, the dutieS and risks being equal

into West Virginia, the objective point
being the King Salt Works. Saltville,
Va. We left at Mount Sterling, KY,
all our camp equipage and about 500
men and horses that were not fit for
forced march. After proceeding some
three or four days were were informed
that Gen. John Morgan, with his COM
mand of mounted infantry and cavalry,
had left the Salt Works and was near
Mount Sterling, so a retrograde move
ment was ordered
Gen. HobsOn was ordered to Cincin-
natl to command force that would

the General down the Big Sandy River
to where he could take passage on a
steamboat for Cincinnati. 1t was
shortly after dusk when we saw him
safely aboard the steamboat, and as 1t
was raining we concluded to camp for
the night, so took shelter in school
house near by.
We lighted a few candles, and began
to feel pretty comfortable in our dry,
cosy quarters. | went to the teachers

an old McGuffey's Fourth Reader. and
proceeded to entertain my audience.
The first thing L saw in the book was
THE Horrors of War" Just as 1 was
getting warmed up reading it the door
opened, and in walked a young school
ma'am. with face flushed with rage,
making straight for me. She snatched
the book from my hand, raised the lid
of the desk, slammed it down and went
out of the door with a bang. 1 was
paralyzed with amaZement. Then the
loud applause from my audience helped
TO restore me to my normal condition.

The National tribune., 1910-09-29

along the line of march this Wisconsin
regiment attracted the attention of
everyone. The Southerners did not take
a liking to the war eagle of the WiSccn-
sin company, for they jeeringly called
him crow" goose" and turkey buzz
zard." The jeers of a crowd in st. Louis
greatly tormented old Abe" and he
broke the cord which held him, sffew
over the heads of his tormenters,
tapped off several caps with his wings"
and in other ways displayed his great
displeasure. From st. Louis Old Abe s
regiment marched away to do four
years of hard service for the Union.
During that time Abe took part in Sc
battles and skirmishes by cheering the
men with his war screams. Wherever
the Sth Wis. went he went. He loved
the soldiers and the camp quite as dear
" as other eagles love the craggy
cliffs and their companions.
The ConfederateS knew that Old Abe
cheered the men in battle, and they
were anxious to capture him. In fact,
they would have preferred to get him
to taking a whole regiment without
him. They knew our men would fight
harder with Old Abe flying from his
perch than without him. officers gave
orders to kill or catch the buzzard'
but all attempts We're in vain, altho the
eagles perch was always in the very
thick of the fight.
After the close of the war in 1863
the Wisconsin boys returned, but not
without the soldier bird. Abe was, by
common consent formally presented to
the State of Wisconsin, and given the
sole use of large room in the Capitol
on pleasant days he was kept fastened
TO perch in the Capitol Park. In the
years following the war he was carried
to many patriotic gatherings in the
country. Men tried to purchase the
soldier bird. and offered fabulous prices
for him. 2. 7. Barnum, it is said, bid
$40, 600 for him. but Old Abe was not
for sale at any price, no matter how
large.
Abe lived on happily for number of
years, surrounded by his old friends
and host of new ones, until N the
Winter of 1881 he was injured by the
burning of lot of paints and oils in
room adjacent to his. The escaping
gases were too much for the veteran
bird that had been accustomed to the
pure air OF the outdoors. We are told
"he was never well after that. All the
eagle had gone out of him. On March
26, 1881, he died in the arms of George
Giilies, his keeper. Those who saw him
feebly flap his once strong wings as he
breathed his last felt very sad, and I
suspect that some tears of manly grief
stole down their faces, for brave
spirit had taken its departure"
