LINCOLN EXERCISES.
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?

CURES INDIGESTION.
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-

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.
