The Lincoln exercises given by the Salisbury schools, last Friday, were at- tended by a great many of the patrons of the schools, and the universal ver- dict is that the program was a rare treat, reflecting great credit on pupils and teachers alike. The exercises were to take place a week earlier, but were deferred on account of the funeral of Sergeant Mark A. Prynn, of the State Police. It is indeed appropriate to fittingly celebrate the birth of Abrabam Lin- coln, one of the greatest and grandest men that the world has ever known. His greatness and goodness are more and more appreciated as the years roll by, and even the people who fought for the Bouthern Confederacy and taught their posterity that the cause of Seces- sion was right, are at last beginning to realize’ that Lincoln was their best friend, and that:it was well to abolish slavery. Therefore, it is not strange that the Lincoln birthday anniversa- ries are beginning to be appropriately observed in many places in the South. Following we reproduce Lincoln's favorite poem, by William Knox, which is one of the most beautiful literary gems that ever was penned, a poem in every way expressive and indicative of the mind and heart of the great, gentle man who so much admired it, the im- mortal Lincoln. Read it, fathers, mothers, sons and daughters, yea, read ‘and memorize it. Here it is: WHY SHOULD THE SPIRIT OF MORTAL BE PrOUD? Oh! why should the spirit of mortal be proud? Like a swift, fleeting meteor, a fast-flying cloud, A flash of the lightning, a break of the wave, He passeth from life to his rest in the grave. The leaves of the oak and the willow shall fade, Be scattered around and Yossi: be laid; And the young and the old, and the low and the high, Shall moulder to dust and together shall - He. The infant and mother attended and loved; The mother that infant’s affaction who proved; The husband that mother and infant who blessed— Each, all, are away to their dwellings of rest. The maid on whose cheek, on whose brow, in whose ‘eye, Shone beauty and pleasure—her triumphs are by; And the memory of those that beloved her and praised, Are alike from the minds of the living erased. The hand of the king that the scepter hath "borne; The brow of the priest that the miter hath worn; The eye of the sage and the heart of the brave, Are hidden and lost in the depths of the grave. The peasant, whose lot was to sow and to reap; The herdsmsn, Who climbed with his goats up the steep, The beggar, who wandered in search of his bread, Have faded away like the grass that we tread. The saint that enjoyed the communion of heaven; The sinner that dared to remain unfor- give The on and the foolish, just, Have quietly mingled their bones in the dust. the guilty and So the multitude goes, like the flower or the weed, That withers away to let others succeed; So the multitude comes, even those we be- hold, To repeat every tale that has often been told. For we are the same as our fathers have been; We see the same sights that our fathers have seen; Wedrink the same stream and view the same sun, And run the same course our fathers have run. The thoughts we are thinking our fathers “ would think; From the death we are shrinking our fa- thers would shrink; To the life we are clinging they also would cling; But it speeds for us all, like a bird on the wing. They loved, but the story we cannot une fold: They scorned, but the heart of the haughty is cold; They grieved, but no wail from the slumber will come; They joyed, but the tongue of their glad- ness is dumb. They died—ay! they died. We things that are now, That walk'on the turf that lies over their brow, And make in their dwellings a transient _ abode, Meet the things that they met on their pil- grimage road. Yea! hope and despondency, pleasure and pain, ‘We mingle together in sunshine and rain; And the smile and the tear, the] song and the dirge, Still follow each other, like surge upon surge. 'Tis the wink of an eye, ’tis the draught of a breath, From the blossom of health to the paleness of death, From the gilded saloon to the bier and the shroud. Oh! why should the spirit of mortal be proud? —eel- REVOLTS AT COLD STEEL. “Your only hope,” said three d-tors to Mrs. M. E.

All Distress from Stomach and In- digestion Vanishes in Five Minutes. Take your sour stomach—or may be you call it Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas- tritis or Catarrh of Stomaeh ; it doesn’t matter—take your stomach trouble right with you to your Pharmacist and ask him to open a b50-cent case of Pape’s Diapepsin and let you eat one 22-grain Triangule and see if within five minutes there is left any trace of your stomach misery. The correct name for your trouble is Food Fermentation—food souring; tke Digestive organs become weak, there is lack of gastric juice; your food ix only half digested, and you become af- fected with loss of appetite, pressure and fullness after eating, vomiting, nausea, heartburn, griping in bowels, tenderness in the pit of stomach, bed taste in mouth, constipation, pain in limbs, sleeplessness, belching of gas, biliousness, sick headache, nervous:- ness, dizziness and many other similar symptoms. If your appetite is fickle, and notk. ing tempts you, or you belch gas, or if you feel bloated after eating, or your food lies like a lump of lead on your stomach, you can make up your mind that at the bottom of all this there is but one cause—fermentation of undi. gested food. Prove to yourself, after your next meal, that your stomach is as good as any; that there is nothing really wrong. Stop that fermentation and begin eating what you want without fear of discomfort or misery. Almost instant relief is waiting for you. It is merely a matter of how soon you take a little Diapepsin. Meyersdale Business Men to Ban- quet in Salisbury. The business men of Meyersdale have arranged for a swell banquet to be held in this city, tonight. It will take place at both hotels, and the indications are that it will be the swellest event pulled off in Salisbury in a long while. The menu will be the best that the markets afford, and that the banquet will be greatly enjoyed by all the par- ticipants, is a forgone conclusion. THE STAR was called by telephone, yesterday, for the purpose of inform- ing the editor that the Meyersdale business men extend him a cordial in- vitation to be their guest at the ban- quet, and, furthermore, expected ta eat at both hotels. Thank you, gentlemen, we’ll try to be on hand ; but if we’re to eat at both hotels, who will edit our paper nex: week? Our associate editor is sick abed now, and considering our great take-in for good eatables, there’s dan- ger of the editor in chief being laid up, too, for a week or more. — HEXAMETHYLENETRAMINE, The above is the name of a German chemical, which is one of the many valuable ingredients of Foley’s Kidney Remedy. Hexamethylenetetramine is recognized by medical text books and authorities as a uric acid solvent acd antiseptic for the urine. Take Foley's Kidney Remedy as soon as you notice any irregularities, and avoid a sericu- malady. Elk Lick Pharmacy E, 7! Miller, Proprietor. 3-1 —a Policeman Walker Found Guilty of Assault and Battery. Geo. B. Walker, Salisbury’s police- man, was arraigned before Judge Kooser, this week, on a charge of as- sault and battery, and was found guilty in manner and form as indicted. The prosecutor was Fred Wahl, a min«+ son of Perry M. Wahl. At the time of writing this item, sentence had not been pronounced, but it will likely be the payment of a small fine and ths costs of prosecution, which will foot up to a snug sum. Walker has often been accused jv going beyond his authority in trivia! matters with boys, and of being to: lax with men able and willing to d battle with him, and those constanti seeking trouble. The outcome of hi trial with young Wahl would seem 1« indicate that the assertions so freel: made as to his utter unfitness to polic this town are all too true. We ma- give full particulars of the Walker Wahl case in our next issue.
