There is IL request from hospitals for
scrapbooks made to interest the con
valescent soldiers when time hangs
heavy on hands forced to be idle. Ger
tainly here is n simple and easy task
waiting for those who are anxious to
serve the needs of our soldiers In
some way, but with little time or mon
ey to spare. And convalescents in the
hospital are not the only ones who
will find the scrapbook something to
enjoy and pass along. So, If you are
casting about for something to send
to the Sammies for Christmas, con-
slider the many virtues of u clever
scrapbook.
These books are to be filled with pic
lures, cartoons, very short stories, good
and new jokes Especially those orlgl-

Fake SaIvarsan.

The New York city department Of
health has unearthed a sensational
fraud In the manufacture of fake sal
varsan. The imitation, which was put
up In New York and sold widely
throughout this country, as well as in
Canada, Mexico, and Central America,
consists of ordinary table salt col
ored with a little apiline dye. The
package, circular, ampoul and every
visible detail of the original article
are cunningly initiated. It is believed
that at least $4,000 doses OF the fake
article have been sold.

accused each other Of everything and made it clear that from henceforth
until the day they roll into their mausonums they will SUE each other in

ANOTHER VETERAN FALLS
ASLEEP IN DEATHS ARMS

Shortly after seven O'Clock last
wednesday evening taps were sound
ed for another veteran of the Civil
War. when Steve a. Staley fell peace
fully into that sleep from which
there is no awakening. Death came
after months OF suffering with trouble
and complications incident thereto.
Although he realized that the end
was near. he was always cheerful. He
took q deep interest in the great Eu
ropean war. and up until "Wednesday
he was eager to read the daily &C
counts of the conflict.
Mr. Staley was born at Miamisherg.
Ohio, on April 90. IS$S. He was
Just Is years OF age when President
Lincoln issued his call for 100000
volunteers. In response to the call.
Mr.. Staley, three brothers and their
| father enlisted In Company b, Second
Ohio regiment Of volunteers, the faith
or being appointed chaplain OF the
regiment This regiment was In the
| first battle OF Bull Kun. and MIR Sta
/ ley had a close call from death when
retreating with tho thousands of 9th
or union soldiers. In attempting 10
crawl through an old fashioned stake
and rider rail fence his eanteen stap
caught on q rail- and while trying 10
get IL loose . Confederate cavalryman
rode up and was about to strike him
with a sabre when a union comradc
stopped from his retreat long enough
to take a shot az the rebel cavalry
man, and the bullet sent him Keeling
from his horse. The father and four
sons served until the close Of the war,
and all escaped being wounded ex-
cept one son. who had q fnger shot
of.
Shortly after being mustered out OF
service Mr.. Staley came to Omaha.
where he learned the mRchinista'
trade in the Union Pacific shops. AZ
ter completing the trade he Aired an
engine In the Omaha yards for sew
eral years. In 1875 he began run
ming an engine. and worked out OF
Tan the divisions on the u. p. from

ferred TO the Oregon Short Line soon
after the construction OF the road
began out OF Granger. and was engtn-
eer on the construction train as the

He remained with the Short Line
as engineer until about 1900, when
his health forced him TO retire. He
then had charge OF the pump house
here until about eight years ago
when he retired from the service Of
the company on a pension and with
an honorable record.
For several years Mr.. Staley served
