A Deserved Tribut.-. !
The readers of this paper, ift 'least
the majority of them, are aciualnted
with Capt. Jack Crawford, the noted
goverment scout and poet, and a
former resident of this town. In the
course of a recent lectin e he ttid a
deserved tribute to "the iinuels of
the battlefield" during the civil war,
which is worthy of production in
these cohmis.
"On all of God's green and beatTti
ful earth," says the poet-scout,"
"there are no purer, no nobler, no
more kind-leurtedand self-sacrificing
women than those who wear the
sombre garb of the Catholic Sisters.
During the war I had many oppor
tunities for observing their noble and
heroic work, not only in the camp
and the hospital, but in the death
swept field of battle. Right in the
fiery front of dreadful war, where
bullets hissed in maddening glee, and
shot and shell flew wildly by with
demoniac shrieks", where dead and
mangled forms lay With pale, blood
fleeked faces, yet wearing the scowl
of battle, I haye seen the black robed
sisters moving over the Held, their
solicitous faces wet with the tears of
sympathy, administering to the wants
of the wounded, and whispering
words of comfort into the ears soon
to be deafened by the cold implacable
hand of death.
"Now kneeling on the blood-be-spatted
sod to moisten with water the
bloodless lips on which the icy kiss of
the death angel had left its pale im
print; now breathing words of hope
Of air imnjrtality bevond the grave
into the ear of some mangled hero,
whoso last shots In our glorious caui-e
had been fired but a moment before;
now holding the cruoiflx to receive
the last kiss from somebody's durling
boy from whose breast the life blood
was splashing, and who had olTored
his life as a willing sacrifice on the
altar of his country; now with tender
touch and tear-dimmed eyes binding
gaping wounds from which most
-women would have shrunk in horror;
now scraping together a pillow of
forest leaves upon which some pain
racked head might rest until the
spirit took its flight toother realms
brave, fearless of danger, trusting
Implicity in the Master whose over,
shadowing eye was noting their every
movement; standing hs shielding,
prayerful svgvls .between the dying
soldier and the horrors of death.
Their only recompense, the sweet,
soul-soothing consoiouunoss that thoy
were doing their duty; their only
hope of reward, that peace and
eternal happiness which awaited
them beyond the stur emblazoned
battlements above. Ah, my friends,
It was a noble work.
"How many a veteran of the war,
who wore the blue or ifray, can yet
recall the soothing touch of a Sister's
hand, as he lay upon the paln-tosed
couch or a Hospital. Uwn we oyer
forget their sympathetic eyes, their
low, soft spoken words of eneoiirage
tnent and cheer when the result of
the struggle between life and death
yet hung in the balance? Oh, how
often have I followed the form of that
good Sister Valencia with my sunken
eyes as she moved away from my cot
to the cot of another sufferer, and
have breathed from the most sacred
depts of my faintly beating heart the
fervent prayer, 'God bless her ! God
bless her I'
"My friends, I am not a Catholic,
but I stand ready at any and all times
to defend those noble women, even
with my life, for I owe thut life to
them."

Washlngto;i, Jan. 9. The reports
from Representative Dlngley's bedside
are a trifle more encouraging, and his
family believe there is still a chance
for him to rally. Extreme weakness
and the poison In his system, as a re
sult of his sickness, are the principal
symptoms which the physicians now
have to combat, which in a man of Mr.
Dlngley's age make the outcome un
certain. The nervousness and delirium
have paitlally subsided, and the per
iods of consciousness are much more
frequent. Mr. Dlngley's two sons have
arrived from Kalamazoo, Mich., bur
have not yet been permitted to see him.

the stranger Ferris was horrified to see
that the man had no head. It having
been burned off completely. He had
evidently wandered to the kiln to get

What Shall We Do.
A serious and dangerous disease prevails
in this country, dangerous because so decep
tive. It cqmes on so slowly yet surely that it
is often firmly seated before we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may be
divided into three distinct stages is, First,
Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back,
rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to
urinate often with a burning sensation, the
flow oF urine being copious or scant with
strong octor
If allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy
pain in the abdomen low down between the
navel and the water passage, increasing de
sire to urinate, with scalding sensation in
pasjing, fmall quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it
with instruments. If uric acid or gravel has
formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected.
The Third stape is Bright's Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that Dr.
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder.
specialist, has discovered n Remedy famous
for its marvelous cures of the most distressing
cases and known as Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-

AIDED BY UKS. PINKIIAM,
Mrs. W. E. Paxton, Yotingtown,
North Dakota, writes about her strug
gle to regain health after tho birth of
her'llttle fjlrl:
" IllCAlt JlhS. PlNKIIAJt: It- is with
plcnsuro that I add my testimony to
yodr list, hoping' that it may induce
others to avail themselves of your val
uable medicine.
"After the .birth of mj HttJo girl,
threo yonrs ago, my health was very
poor. I )ind lcucorrhma badly, and a
terriblo bearing-down pain which
gradually grow worse, until I could do
no work. Also had hcadncho nearly
all the timo, and dizzy feelings. Men
struallons wore very profuso, appear
ing every two weeks.
" I took medicine from n good doctor,
but it, somncd to do no good. I was
becoming alarmed over my condition,
when I read your advertisement in, a
paper. I sent nt onco for a bottle'of
Lydia E. l'lnkham's Vegetable Com
pound, nnd after taking two-thirds of
tho bottlo I folt so much better that I'
send for two more. After using three
bottles I folt as strong and well as any
one.
" I think it is the best medlcino for
femnlo weakness ever advertised, and
recommend it to every lady I moot suf
fering from this trouble."
Maternity is a wonderful experience
nnd many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
Tho advice of Mrs. I'inkham Is freely
offered to all expectant mothers, and
her advico is beyond question the most
valuable to bo obtained. If Mrs. Pax
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkham be
fore confinement Bho would have been
saved much suffering. Mrs. Pinkham's

FATAL HOTEL FIRE,
Wiroc lie-.1 mid Five llndly Injured
In (i i-tlMhui'K ('otiflimi-nltoii.
I' tlslniig, Jun. 0. A fire broke out III
the Hotel Richelieu at 3: IB yesterday
morning nnd resulted In a property 1
loss of only about MB.000. but three
lives were snrrltleed and five people
badly hurt. The dead are: Amos S.
Lnndls. Grapevine, Pa.; George A. Wal
ters, Camden, N. J.; Mrs. Katherlne
Boyle, Pittsburg. The three victims
were guests of the hotel nnd all were i
suffocated by the dense smoke. I
Tho Injured are: Dr. Jtobert Blacks-
ley. of Plymouth, Pa., fracture of verte
brae, caused by falling from third lloor
window, will probably die; Henry
Painter, Grapevllle, Pa,, small blood
vessels of lungs ruptured by Inhaling
smoke, may recover; John L. Mills,
proprietor of the hotel, face nnd body
badly burned; Miss Mills, his daughter,
cut by glass while breaking through
window to escape; William Garretson,
Clearfield, Pa., delegnte to miners' na
tional convention, painfully burned
About the back and hips.
The fire originated on the second floor
from an explosion of gas, nmr within
a few monments tho building was a
mass of flames and blinding smoke.
The noise of the explosion awakened
most of the guests, about 20 In number,
and n frnntlc fight for life ensued.
Itobert N. Thompson, of Kalaska,
Mich., wns the means of saving at least
six lives. In the first moments after
the explosion he rushed Into the hall
way of the second floor and stumbled
over the unconscious form of a woman,
whom he dragged Into the reception
room. Five others, three men and two
women, who had been turned back
from the stalrwny by the flames, were
shrieking and fighting for some exit.
Thompson forced them all Into the big
room and locked the door. Knowing
that It meant death to go Into the hall
he fought the desperate men back until
the arrival ot the firemen, when all
were rescued
