FORHER RESIDENTS
HEARD FROM
The following letter from James W.
Bogart and eon i Elmei W. Bogart),
former attaches of Castle Urove
farms, who now reside near Ashland,
Ya . will be read with interest by
their acquaintances in this locality:
Ashland, Va , June 7, 1908.
Anienican: We have |a
bcaatifal farm here situated six miles
from Ashland on the K. F. route.
Chnrch and school house are only half
a mile distant.
Crops of all kinds this year are very
backward. The ground was literally
soaked with rain during the winter
amt up to about the lath of April.
From that on we did not have a drop
of rain until the 27th of May. Farm
«rs about here have only a portion of
their corn planted. Corn here can he
planted until about the fiist of July.
Early cherries were a failure, but
thero will be plenty of early apples,
although rather small iu el/.f. The
early potatoes nearly all rotted 111 the
ground, but the June crop will he a
big one by the appearance of things
now.
We will plant late potatoes aud
sweet potatoes about the 15th of this
month. Winter oats are a fair crop ;
wheat is nearly ready to cut here.
Hay Is very short and will be high in
price next winter
Corn is 70 cents per bushel, oats M)
cents. Hay brings f'JO per ton.
It is a paradise here for hunters.
Ijuail are as thick as sparrows, with
plenty of rabbits, wild turkeys, foxes,
coons and deer.
Yonrs truly,
James W. Bogart & Sou.

Natioual Guard for Berwick.
It is probable that in thu near future
a company of the Ninth Regiment may
be located 111 Berwick. There is a
movement on foot among the officers
audit is expected that the matter will
soon be taken up with local persons.
Uno of the oompanies 111 Parsons was
recently disbauded and transferred to
Wilkesbarre which is the sixth to be
located there. It is difficult to keep
the rauks tilled because of tho number
ol military organizations iu tho city
apart trom the Ninth Kegimeut Com
panics so that one company from
Wilkesbarre may be disbanded and
transferred to another town. The
colonel and statf officers have been
aonsidcring the matter and on account
of the patriotio spirit iu Berwick have
picked this town as a desirable one in
which to locate a company. This
may not be until after the summer
camping but that it will come is not
doubted by those in close touch with
the question aud with the large uuni
bet of men in Betwick and no military
organizations the forming of a tir?-1
class company could readily he effect
ed.—Bloouisburg Press.
Startling Evidence.
Fresh testimony iu great quantity
is constantly coining in, declaring Di
King's New Discovery for Consump

McFarlaud Bentorville, Va., serves as
example. He writes : "I had Bion

the time without beiiiK benefitted.
Then I began taking Dr. King's New

THIRTY DROWN
IN FLOOD
ST. LOUIS, Jutie 10. The impend
ing break in the Illinois Central dyke
came at l'J::5(l o'clock morning.
It is conservatively estimated that
thirty persons have drowned. Anoth
er estimate places the number of lives
lost at seventy five
In tivo minutes after tie' break a
mighty torrent was tearing through a
large residence section of East St.
Louis.
One-half of East St. Louis is buried
iu the flood. Ten thousand persons
are homeless and at the mercy of the
raging waters. Families are penned
up prisoners 111 garrets of their homes
or on roofs. They are without food
and are crying for help. Two thous
and people who sought refuge in the
Washington school, the Franklin
school and St. Mary's church and the
plant of the St. Louis Syrup Refining
company, are all prisoners and are
suffering greatly.
The city appealed to St. Louis for
small boats. In the section in tin
eastern part of the city people by the
thousands were sleeping and felt
certain the city was safe. But the\
were warned by the blowing ol the
sand train whistles, by lii of riot
gntis and the cries of those who had
been working on the embankment in
an effort to save it. Tho property
losses cannot he estimated.
Kindly take notice that Ely's Liquid
Cream Balm is of a great benefit to suf
ferers from nasal catarrh who can not
inhale freely through the nose.but must
treat themselves by spraying. Liqnid
Cream Balm differs in form, but not
medicinally from the Creaui Balm that
has stood for years at the head of rem
edies for catarrh. It may lie used in
any nasal atomizer. The price, includ
ing a spraying tube, is 7"i cts. Sold by
druggists and mailed by Ely Brothel's,

Murder at Oentralia.
Ceutralia presented the peaceable
citizens of the town with auother
shock 011 Sunday when it was an
nounced that another stabbing affray
had resulted in death of one.
The latest alleged murderer in Col
umbia county is John Set shottz who
was arrested on Sunday hv Constable
Langdou charged with the murder of
John Swatski, both of whom are from
the shanties 011 the road from At isles
to Centralia.
From the story as told by the Justice
and gathered at the hospital,Seeshnltz
aud Swatski, were both at a boarding
house when some altercations arose
and Seesholtz is alleged to have stall
bed Swatski, once over the right kid
ney ami once over the left. Tho latter
wound was not severe being merely a
flesh wound but the former penetrated
the kidney. He was taken to the Min
ers hospital at Ashland where an op
eration was performed by Di Biddlo
who was however unable to save bis
life and ho died at eleven o'clock Fri
day night.
It is stated that before lie died
Swatski made a statement saying that
Seesholtz was his assailant.
Another is said to be implicated
who together with Seesholtz skipped.
The authorities were soon after them,
however, and Constable Langdon marie
the arrest Sunday.
Seesholtz's was taken hofoie Justice
Black at Centralia, and given a ln-ar
ing, three witnesses testifying against
him. None of theni, however, saw
the crime committed, all testifying to
Seesholtz's having been 111 the room
with Swatski and of his having had
the knife.
After hearing the evidence Justice
Black remanded him to jail without
bail, where lie will remain until the
September term of court.

Indigestion Cause#
Catarrh of the
Stomach.
For many years It has been supposed thai
Catarrh of the Stomach caused Indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly thtt
apposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re
peated attacks of Indigestion Inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
r.xposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus
'ng the glands to secrete mucin Instead of
the Juices of natural digestion. This Is
railed Catarrh of the Stomach.

The Courrier des Etats L'idß say*
thnt on Jun. i t, 1858, the late Frances
co Crispl, the great Italian statesman,
then a political refugee in l'aris, re
celved from an Italian friend connect
ed with the l'aris opera two gallery
tickets for the performance of that
evening, which the emperor and cm
bress were expected to attend, Crispl
end his wife were on the point of stin t
ing for the theater when the latter ex
claimed, "Francesco, where shall we
get a candleV"
They were In such destitution that
they had neither candles nor matches
nor yet the wherewithal to buy them.
Going to the opera would involve grop
ing for their room at midnight and go
ing to bod In total darkness. Too proud
to confess their condition nml to bor
row a few sons, they regretfully denied
themselves the promised treat, remain
ed In their room and retired la-l'ore th«
twilight had failed.
On the following morning they learn
ed of Orsini's attack on the emperor,
the police raids and the arrest of all
Italian revolutionists found in or near
the theater. If t'rispl had been in the
house, he would certainly have been
among the first arrested, for he was
known as an ardent disciple of Maz'/.ini.
Jnvonlle Financier*.
Two Wall street financiers were dls
cussing the importance of early im
pressing upon children the value of
motley. "A penny saved," said the
banker, "is the fundamental principle
In fortune making. I give my young
sters a prize every month for saving
the pin money 1 enable theiu to earn
by various services that my father
would have relegated to the servants.
1 think I am on the right track, for the
other day I found myself short of car
fare, and it was with reluctance that
the youngest of the brood would lend
me five pennies, while the oldest came
to the rescue only whou 1 offered se
curity."
"It's well to have children early
trained fo keep account of what they
spend," saitl the banker's companion,
with a twinkle In his shrewd eye. "My
boy is six. On Ills birthday I bought
hint a little desk, a ledger and all the
paraphernalia of bookkeeping, and
showed him how to make entries and
balance accounts. The other nlglit,
when he had gone (o bed. 1 thought I
would see how he was coming on. The
first page read: 'Had 4 cents; spent 4
•ents; haven't a darn cent left!"— New

for two years to mention lib name in

"Olliccr." said the police court Judge,
"what made you think the prisoner .was
drunk?"
"Well, your honor, as he was going
along the sidewalk he ran plump into a
street lamppost. He backed away, re
placed his hat on his head and tirmly
started forward again, but once inorc
ran into the post. Four times he tried
to got by the post, but each time hi»
uncertain steps took him plump into
the Iron pole. After the fourth attempt
and failure to pass the post he backed
off, fell to the pavement and, clutching
his head in his hands, murmured as
one lost to nil hope: 'Lost! Lost in an
impenetrable forest!'"
