Anticipating a second call for l.'nltcd
States volunteofs, stopn were recently
taken towurd bplng ptepared for this
emergency, and after considerable so
licitation on the part of many ex-members
of Company F, National Guard of
Pennsylvania, John II. Lewis, of South
Lincoln avenue, lias agreed to under
take the tank ot organizing a company
on this side. Mr. Lewis was tho iirst
captain of Company F, and served
several years, lie also drilled the now
tletunet uniformed rank Knights of
Pythias, unco tho crack company of
this city.
Last evening tho work of forming
the company wns begun In St. David's
hall, In Company F'r) quarteis, tho use
of which was secured for this purpose.
About fifteen names were tnken in low
than tin hour. There were probably
four times Hint tunny applicants but
Mr. Lewis Is using chip In selecting
In order to avoid any heavy falling orf
when physical examinations nie made.
To those who arc deslious of Join
ing such a movement or mmpnny and
yet are not posted as to Its Intent, the
tallowing Information can bo rolled up
on to put them right: it Is Intended
to form a company of at least 100 men,
who will stand a fair chance of pussing
the necessary examination. St. David's
hail will lie secured and drilling com
menced as quickly as practicable. When
Hip company line; been formed and tho
necossnry olllcers chosen, the services
of tho company will bo tenderpd to
the United Statps. If a second call
for volunteers is made the company
will go Into service.
First, last and all the time, ex-Captain
Lewis desires to have It under
stood that the company will not bo
connected In any manner with tho Na
tional Guard movement nnd that the
company goes Into service only nt the
call of the government, whenever the
next call is made. Of course, no uni
forms, guns, etc., will be used nt pres
ent, but the intention in fee simple
Is "to lie ready and awaiting."
Any and all young men (single be
ing mcvt desirable) nnd over 21 years
of ago. of good moral, mental and
physical lltness are requested to pres
ent themselves as volunteois In this
company. To facilitate matters any
persons desiring to join can leave their
names, etc., nt Jenkins" pharmacy, on
South Main avenue, whore a list will
be loft for tilling in, and by applying
to Albert Davis at Clarke Hrothers,
on North Main avenue further infor
mation can bo given. Mr. Davis has
served eleven years in tlie National
Guard and had risen to the grado of
sergeant major. First battalion, but
tho new formation of the Thirteenth
cut his rank out.
All imnlicnnta should conform rm
I nearly as possible to tho rules which
goern icgular enlistments, and thus
avoid useless effort for themselves. The
average Mtandard is HO pounds weight,
.1 feet. GLj Inches In height, 21 to 40
years of age, and with no physical or
mental ailment. Feet, hands, lingers
or toes .diould lip all right.

Tlio Progress of tho Pllgtlme attract
ed to the armory last evening a. larger
crowd than was over before seen there.
They ciiino from all parts of tlio city.
To say they were pleased, Is putting
it mildly. Never before were tho peo
ple of North Scrnnton afforded such
u treat as was presented last evening.
Across tho entire hall weie thickly
dotted tho nation enibleirri of nil the
great countries of the globe, Spain ex
cepted. The stngo had received Its
share of attention anil presented a
beautiful appearance. Considerable
llooi space was occupied with booths
representing the various stoics In the
central city. They were resplendent
with bunting of brilliant colors. On
the Inside were arranged tabled of neat
designs.
The wigwam In tho western portion
of the hall received Its sharo of ntton-
! Hon. About one hundred grown peo
ple and children wore costumes rep
resenting the modest early pilgrim, In
dians nnd sailors of tlio United States
navy and executed a dilllcult march
preceding thu programme.
The first number on the programme
was a tableau, "Landing of tho Pll
giliriV this number was uproariously
applauded. Miss Lena Clarke recited
In her UEual fascinating way. Other
numbers were: "Keseuo of John
Smith," "Marriage of Pocohontas,"
drill, llttlo girls: vocal duct, "Come
lieloved," Misses Margaret nnd Mag
gie' Davis: selection, quartette; banjo
solo, Stanley Swnrtz; tableau, "Dewey's

repeated thl evening.

and "Tonics" an
Fashioned Idea.
Old
Pure blood, strong nerves nnd mus
cles, linn, healthy llesh, can only come
from nliolesoino food well digested.
"Wood purifiers" and "nerve tonto" do
not reach tlio causo of the mischief. Tha
stomach Is the point to bo looked af
ter. The safest and surest way to euro
any form of Indigestion is to take after
each meal some harmless preparation
othls kind composed of vcgetnolc es
sences, pure pepsin, golden seat and
fruit salts, sold by druggists under
nnme of Stuart's Dyspepsia tablets,
and these tablets taken after meals
assist digestion wonderfully because
they will digest the food promptly be
fore It has time lo ferment ami bout,
and the weak stomach relieved and
assisted In this way soon become strong
and vigorous again.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets aro su
perior to any secret patent medicines
because you know what you nre taking
Into your stomach.
They are sold by druggists every
where at COc. per package. Write F. A.

Suits and Coats for May
Thu garments we oiler below are the acme of perfection in every
thing that can make Ladies' Suits or Coats desirable. In materials they
represent tlie leading fabrics of the season. In stvlethey are irreproach
able: in trimmings and linings they are as good and correct as they
could be if you had had personal supervision over them, while as re
gards tailoring skilled labor has reached its highest limit in their manu
facture. As to perfect titting we'll guarantee that in every case.
In face of these indisputable facts, it would seem as if there was no
valid teason why prices should be broken so early in the season, and, to

a vengeance, whipping women and men
of ill-repute and warning many to

James Smith was e.no of the first they
visited, nnd lie was severely punished.

JAMES BURNS.
Hx-Collcctor ol the Port ot Kansas City.
Of the men who have occupied positions ot public trust In Kansas City,
either by gift of the people or by appointment, none has n more enviable
reputation for ability, honesty and efficiency than James Hums, Collector of
tlio Port of Kansas City under a rover Cleveland. He lived to the letter the
maxim, "a public otiice is n public trust," and when he retired he carried
with him the respect of everyone in tho community Democrats and Republi
cans alike.
James Hums has used Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and he does not hesi
tate to say they have accomplished wonders.
"I suffered with dyspepsia for twenty years," said Mr. Hums yesterday.
"Never knew what It was to enjoy llfo in fact living seemed a burden, as It
does to all who suffer severely with dyspepsia. A few months ago I began
taking Stuart's Dyspopsln Tablet?. From tho first I felt relief, and now, al
though 1 am still taking them. I feel entirely cured. For the first time in
twenty years 1 can oat anything I want nnd suffer no 111 effects from It. You
can't imagine tho pleasure of this unless you have been a dyspepsia sufferer.
"I never gave a testimonial for any medicine before, hut I feel us if every
body ought to know of tills remedy, and while it is personally distasteful to
no to appear in print in this connee tion. I feel as If I had no right to
shirk the opportunity to, perhaps help some other sufferers from dyspepsia.
1 have been recommending the Tablets to all my friends. Only recently I
took James H. I. lilts, the father of Father Lillls, down to get some, and I
understand ho also Is being wonderfully beneilttcd. I can't recommend it
too highly."
