HIS LAST MARCH OVER.

BURIAL OF GENERAL W. T. SHERMAN. <> An Proceaalonjßiwul lijlte Warrior to His Last Camping Ground—One Hundred Thousand People Do Homage U> His Memory. x-av Mtn low; low, ’FeatA the ejovhr Ogthe snow; ■Wllab.tares, hg?

Perhap thempstJmpres^ye.feature of the grand' display was of the remfiant 'td the/ battle-scarred legions who in their prime and vigor “inarched to Vie sea.” To-day they are old and gray, but the old spirit prevailed. Some walked a9MeeecVßs' the day they,deft Atlanta, many were stooped by the weight of years, others hobbled- .on crutches or limped painfully, along-behind the bier of their beloved comm adder. The old guard mourned but never faltered. Other ;j trains hid krtived loaded to their utmost capacity, and about the Union Depot there waa a great crush.

while between that point and Washington avenue the sidewalks were utterly inadequate to accommodate the crowd, which spread into the streets and left only sufficient room for the movements of the troops. The gathering was, however, Very dissimilar to those on the festive occasions. Nearly all present wore badges commemorative of the dead hero, a deep stillness prevailed and all were impressed with the solemnity of the occasion. The division upon which most interest centered was the first, composed of the famous Seventh Cavalry, under Colonel Forsythe, and the artillery and infantry of the regular army. The flutter of the gay red and white swallow-tailed guidons and the flash of the swords and yellow capes of the troopers as they wheeled into Pine street-in double columns of companies,every horse keeping alignment and proper distance, would have called forth thundering applause on an occasion less solemn. But the crowd never for an instant forgot the occasion that had caused it to gather. The grim cannon, with their large, fine horses and their perfectly equipped artillerymen, excited scarcely less interest than the cavalry. The recent Indian troubles in the Northwest had sharpened public interest, and the troops who had seen service shone resplendent in the eyes of the spectators. The bugle corps of the Seventh Cavalry led the procession, being preceded by a platoon of police, who cleared the way. General Merritt, grand marshal of the procession, and his aides, some twenty officers of the regular army, rode at the head of Custer’s cavalry. . They wore side arms, heavily bound in black. The thinned ranks of companies B and K of the cavalry showed the havoc at Wounded Knee, but the six troops showed 400 men in line. The artillery and infantry passed quickly in view, and then came the caisson on which rested the body of General Sherman. The second division, though lees martial in appearance, presented a picture

no less impressive. The , .Loyal legion was in the van, fol I owed by the Society of , the Army, of the Tennessee. 'The third division consisted of Grand Army posts, Sons of Veterans and allied orders. The old warriors turned out strong, fully 3,000 being in line, They came from 1111-

nols, lowa, Kansas and over half from Missouri. Behind the Grand Army was a small body of men that attracted universal attion. In the center was a banner with the words: “Southern Historical Society.” It-was. Society of St. Louis. The members, prominent citizens of that city, marched with bowed heads behind the. man who, of all others, did most to overthrow the cause for which they fought and lost. The fourth division was under command of Governor Francis and was made up entirely of militia. .<1 The imposing cortege reached the cemetery. The bottom of the newly dug grave was covered with evergreen and mosses. The American flags lined the sides —flags that had a history. The floral offerings were most magnificent They came from all parts of the country. The soldiers formed in line east of the grave, while the family and friends of the General immediately surrounded it The eight sergeants transferred the casket from the caisson to the bank of the grave. In the shelter of an adjacent tomb Father >■ Sherman, the dead soldier’s favorite son, hurriedly donned his priestly vestments and prayer book Ip hand, returned to the head of the grave. When the bearers placed the casket on the supports above the grave the buglds blew a call and the band played the first few bars of Pleyel’s Hymn. As the sound

died away Father Sherman removed his hat, and, opening his prayer book, began the impressive prayers for the repose of the soul of the deMd. When the service began the battalion of infantry stood at present arms facing the little group about the grave. In the midst of the services a hoarse, low voice gave the command “Carry arms—order arms” in quick succession, and the sharp click of the musket .barrel and the ring of the butt as it struck the ground gave singu l larly impressive accentuation to the

FROM THE CAISSON TO THE GRAVE.

solemn words of the young priest. Father Sherman concluded with the invocation: “May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace. Amen! In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Ho.y Ghost. Amen!” Then, in quick succession, three volleys rang out over the grave and echoed from the surrounding hills. Three salvos from the, artillery, which was stationed outside the cemetery, followed,

and the f uneral ceremonies of the last of the great Union ca'ptains was over. An Atchison man is soon to marry the woman who stood sponsor for him when he was baptized as a baby.

A Chance Friend Made His Fortune.

A pleasant story is told about the son of a very prominent man. When he was a student at Harvard he took a trip West on one of his vacations. He was greatly interested in railroad affairs, and happened to fall into conversation with an elderly man who also happened to know a little about this subject On the way to Chicago they talked about railroads a good -deal and. the young man acquitted himself very creditably. His new friend had introduced himself simply as Mr. Smith, let us say. Mr. Smith and the young college man exchanged personal cards before the trip was ended. Shortly before he was graduated the young man received a flattering offer from a big railroad company, through its President, the same Mr. Smith, call him again. That was several years ago. That young man to day is a rising railroad man, who has already climbed many rounds of the railroad ladder.

The Parent of Insomnia.

The parent of imomnia lor wakefulness is io nine cases out of ten a dyspeptic stomach. Good digestion gives sound sleep, indigestion interferes with it. The brain and stomach sympathize. One of the prominent symptoms of a weak state of the gastric organs is a disturbance of the great nerve entrepot, the brain. Invigorate the stomach, and you restore equilibrium to the groat center. A most reliable medicine for the purpose is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which is far preferable to mineral sedatives and powerful narcotics whicn, though they may for a time exert'a soporific influence upon the brain, soon cease to act, and invariably injure the tone of the stomach. The Bitters, on the contrary, restore activity to the operations of that all important organ, and their beneficent influence is reflected in sound sleep and a tranquil state of the nervous system. A wholesome impetus is likewise given to the action of the liver and bowels by its use.

Points in Minor Things.

The girls have grown very sanitive in these days of progressive culture. Things that the world of women used to do freely are now pronounced very nasty. When a woman shampoos her head, instead of putting up her hair in a semidamp condition, she allows it to become dry and fluffy, letting it hang loosely about the head for hours; no hasty drying in front of a grate is good enough for her. A few women have even gone to the length of buying gas stoves, with heating apparatus attached in a flat sheet of metal, upon which they can spread out their Jocks.to dry Mid invigorate. And so if she has a cut, a bit of rag will not do for it as of yore; there must ’be a bit of absorbent cotton to bind upon the wound. This absorbent cotton is obtainable at all dispensaries and drug stores. It is cheap, light, antiseptic, non-heating, and a little of it goes a great way.

H e Will Not Ride.

A Pennsylvania farmer who has lived in Susquehanna County all his life, has never yet set his foot upon a railroad car, though the Erie tracks run through his farm. When the road was built he declared that the locomotive was the invention of Satan, and he wanted to die before one whistled through his meadows. AU Attempts to induce him,to take a ride upon a train have thus far'proved futile? Great inventions have been made this nineteenth century, but none more great or needed than Dr. Bull’s Vegetable Worm Destroyers. Mothers know this. By mail, 25 cents. John D. Park, Cincinnati, Onio.

Sitting Bull’s Wives.

Sitting Bull had three wives, two of whom survived him. The name of one of them is The-One-That-Had-Four-Robes. The other seems to have distinguished herself by doing more than a wife’s share toward keeping the name of the Bull family upon the Sioux census roll, and is called The-One-That-Had-Twlns-Twice. The entire book Is ably written, and gives trusty information for everyone growing fruit of any sort or kind. Sent free by Stark Bros., Louisiana, Mo.— Orangd Judd Farmer.

The Mummy Cats of Beni Hassan.

A curious consignment of goods was received at London a few weeks ago,' consisting of no less than 180,000 mummy cats from Egypt. These cats have lain in their sacred burial place at Beni Hassan for 3,000 years or more, and having fulfilled for so many years the destiny intended for them, have at last, under the impulse of nineteenth century progress, been sacrificed upon the altar of “utility”—that modern all-devouring ogre. These mummies are now about to fill their final function of fertilizing English farm land, and at the future resurrection poor pussy will have a sorry time trying to gather together her'scattered bones.

Deafness Can’t Ba Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one -way. to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the. Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you haven rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it* normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever; , nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

“German Syrup’’ G. Gloger, Druggist, Watertown, Wis. This is the opinion of a man who keeps a drug store, sells all medicines, comes in direct contact with the patients and their families, and knows better than anyone else how remedies sell, and what true merit they have. He hears of< all the failures and successes, and can therefore judge: “I know of no medicine for Coughs, Sore Throat, or Hoarseness that had done such effective work in my Coughs, family as Boschee’s Sore Throat, Hoarseness, at tny store, who was suffering from a very severe cold. She could hardly talk, and I told her about German Syrup and that a few doses would give relief; but she had no confidence in patent medicines. I told her to take a bottle, and if the results were not satisfactory I would make no charge for it. A few days after she called and paid for it, saying that she would never be without it in future as a few doses had given her relief. ‘ * & Ksw « IS'irt W. L.
