A ROYAL WELCOME

Is Accorded to the Brave Boys

Co. Happy Reunions.

Amid cheers, toars, tho screaming of whistles and jan?le of bells Company was received home last Saturday. In the morniuR about 9 o'clock a telegram was received which stated the company would be home on the l:ir train and in .lees than an hour the news had scattered over the city.

The scene at the traiu was a most imposing one. Thousands ot people had congregated and when the boys, bronzed and sunburned, tumbled out of the cars they were greeted with haud-clap-ding and waving of flags and handkerchiefs. Many mothers had crowded their way to the platform and received their clear boys with open arms, fairly deluging th.iin with tears of joy- The sight was one never to be forgotten.

The parade was at once formed with W. W. Goltra, \Y. T. Wbittington and Capt. Talbot in the lead. Following theiii came thu band, then the veterans of the civil war, Patriarchs Militant, P. O. *5. of A. Commandery, K. of P. Commandery and the Knights of St. Jobd. Co. was last and thoy were cheered lustily all along the line of march which was west on College to Washington, north on Washington to Market, east on Market to Water, south on Water to Main ami west on Main to the court house where the boys were drawn up in line and listened to addresses of welcome by Mayor Elmore, Dr. Burroughs and Gen. Wallace. Then the boys were escorted to the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium where the ladies of the city had prepared a feast tit for the gods. The waiters wore aprons of the national colors, while the napkins were of the same pattern. After stacking their guns in the center of the room the boys fell on their palatable foe and disposed of him in short order. At the table was a vacant chair covered with a flag. This was in memory of their dead comrade, Frank Britton, and cast a tinge of sadness over the happy occasion. An informal reception followed the repast after which the mothers, wives and sweethearts captured the boys and carried them away to their individual homes. To describe the reunions in many households is beyond the power pf pen and can best be left to your imagination.

NOTES.

Capt. Wert reds in front of Co. M. Howard Cox and Ton-. Murray are still at Kaoxville having volunteered with the hospital corps there.

About 150 school children, in charge of Supt. Keneston, carried flowers and flags and occupied the steps in front of the court house.

Neil and Dan McCallum, Harry Mitchell and Walter Keliy were

Bink in

the hospital at Indianapolis and unable to accompany the boys home.

Charles Wray, Charles Gilkey, Sam Dean, Howard 1 atton and Bernie Prida were left in camp a"t Indianapolis as guard. Thoy wili be relieved shortly and come hi in 3.

The sick men who rode in the parade iu a cab were Perry Seering, Will Richmond and Si Rogers, while Henry Shoemaker, the first man who was discharged on account of ill health, carried the flag.

An effort is being made to have the reassembling of the 158th regiment take place in this city when the furloughs expire on Oct. 18. The committee in charge has guaranteed the government and Gov. Mount the free use of the fair grounds, buildings and water privileges and will bear the expense of removing the camp oquipir cnts here from Cam Mount. This id the first day of the big peace jubilee and street fair and would be a bijr feature. Ttie regimental officers are in favor the project tnd have signed a petition favoring the movemen!".

A Female Alinstrel Show.

An effort is being made by a Lumber of ladies of this city to put, a minsfr-l show on th boards at Mueie Hall in the near future. The entertainment is to l.e under the.auspices of the new Library Association. An expert has been engaged to coach the fair ones in the mysterious art of burnt cork, and a hot. show is anticipated.

Nearly Completed.

Most of the cement walks on south Washington end Wa er streets,

com

pleted. It is probable that as the eea-

Bonof

frosts and colder weather are nearly at hand, there will be but little more of this work done this year.

Death of Katherine Slattery.

Miss Katherine Slattery, daughter of Thomas Slattery, died last Saturday morning, of lung trouble, at the age of 21 years. The funeral occurred from St. Bernard's church Monday morning at 9 o'clock.

The State Fair Association Is About

That Amount in the Hole.

Commenting on the State fair, last week, the Indianapolis .Sentinel says:

"Treasurer Rnbinson says the fair was :i bi^ success in the wu." of exhibits, but was a heavy failure financially. Tho small attendance and the condition of the track, which prevented racing, is, of course, attributed to the weather. The receipts from all sources for the entire week were S2J,77J.8:i. About 821,000 was taken in at the gates and the amphitheater at night. Following were the receipts from paid admissions each day: Tuesday,§287.57 Wednesday, 86,0G2 Thursday, SS.73J.50 Friday, 5,754,75. Last year Fiiday was the big day of tho week. On that day nearly as much money was taken iu at the gates as was received during the entire week this year. Treas. Robinson says the big racir.g events ot last year made the fair. The people attended because of the famous flyers advertised and not because they desired to see the fair. This year, according to the treasurer, the the pe' pie were "ripe" for the fair and had tho weather been favorable the institution would have enjoyed the biggest week in its history. '•It is the opinion of some members of the board that ihe fair will be managed exclusively by the State after this. At the meeting of the board of agriculture last January the question of turning the

State lair over to the State was discussed and it wss so favorably received that a committee was appointed to carry a proposition to the next legislature. There is a feeling that the next fair will be given under the direct supervision of the State. It is suggested that the exhibit will probably be managed by a board consisting of the governor, attorney general, auditor and possibly the secretary of State. '•Treasurer Robinson thinks the deficit on account of this year's financial failure will be between 85,000 and 88,000."

naggie Miles's Meanness.: George Miles, of New Market, has filed suit in the circuit court for a divorce from bis wife, Maggy Idiles. In hii complaint George alleges all sorts of wicked tbinge, but begins by setting forth his own virtues. He says that during his two years of wedded life with Migeie, he has conducted h'ms-ilf a^ only a loyal, virtuous husband should, tii.it he has at all times provided abundantly for her wants, ami his borne her s.'offs and scorns and contumelious taunts with christian fortitude. He pictures Maggie as a regular virago, that at one ti-re she attempted his life by shooting1, and that it is through no fault of hers that he is not now running a ferry bo it on the river Jordan. He further alleges that she drove his children by a former wife away from home, and would often amuse herself by chasing him around the house with A cliib. Maggie's oth^r besetting

the complaint alleges, is laziness, and goes on to recite that she would often refuse to cook his meals, causing him.to go elsewhere tor them. That he was frqueotly forced to button his shirt with a ten-penny nail because she would not sew buttons on the garment. If Maggie is half as bad as George paints her, we dori't blame him for" the step he has taken.

Dr. Wallace Tharpe, the new pastor of the Christian church, has removed to this city. He occupied his pulpit last Sunday morning and evening and was well received.

Restrained From Using the Fayer-

weather rioney.

A New York dippatch sayt: "Judge Liconibe has signed an order restraining the trustees of Amherst, Boudoin, Dartmouth, Hamilton, Williams, Adelbert, Park, Lafayette, Marysville, Marietta, Wabash, Vale, Columbia, the University of Rochester, Union Theological Seminary, the University of Virginia, Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institution and Wesleyan University from disposing of any money paid to tb.ern from the '-alleged secret trust in, or concerning the residuary estate of" Dan. iel B. Fayerwea'her until the final hearing of the suit brought ag&ist them, and the executors of the will, ttmma S.'Fay erweather and Mary W. Achter. The colleges received 6120,000 each from the estate. The action is brought to obtain posse-eion of one-half of the estate of 86,000,000. Judge Lacjmbe's order ties up 82,995,000."

A Smashup.

Slumber, a home that started in the free-for-all pace at the fair here, ran away on the track at Covington last week. The scare was the result of a collision in which his driver was thrown fron: the sulkey, and the animal ran two miles around the track betore he could be stopped. Tho driver escaped without injury.

Letter From W. W. Ewing. FORT APACHE ARIZONA, Sept., 16, 1898. En. RENIEW:—

The excitement of war having subsided, perhaps a letter from the Civil service will be of some interest. Fort Apache is situated at the confluence of the north and east forks of White river, which is a tributary of Salt river, one of the principal branches of the Gila, (fey the way, if any of the boys of old Montgomery have occasion for a voyage on Salt river, we will kindly consent to have berths ready). The Indiau school is four miles from the Fort, on north fork of White river, about five thousand and five hundred feet above sea level. Agent Chas. D. Ivey6 says this year has been a record breaker, in the fact that the childreu were all in and ready to begin work Sept. 1, time of beginning ordered by the department at

Washington. One of the teachers has failed to report. The pupils have entered the year's work very earnestly. There are six buildings at'present with the promise of another. An estimate has been made for water works. At present water is hauled from the river in a large iron tank. The Indians are Apaches and the puils are bright for the opportunities they have enjoyed. Tne parents live in camps consisting of circular tents made of poles and brush. Occasionally some of thuin secure canvas with which to cover their tents. The change from camp life to that of the school has caused some sickness.

As the school has been in progress two weeks the health is improving. There are two schools on the Apache reservation, Sac Carlos and this place, and yet there are many childron that should be in school who are not for lack of room to take care of them. It requires much more to teach the l-idian than it does the white child from t'ae fact oi' having to teach the Englieh language, domestic and industrial habits. The government boarda and clothes the students while in school.

As to Arizona, it is a land of high plains and rich valleys, extinct volcanos, lava bedd, deserts, mesas and buttes. In altitute it ranges from below sea level in the south to 13,000 feet above. Mining constitutes the chief industry, although agriculture and fruit raising are coming to the front. Ihe greatest agricultural development haH teen in the southern portion. Tho river valleys at low altitude are almost tropical in climate. There hits been a larj^e ou'.lay in constructing irrigating canals.

Tho monuments of an ancient and mysterious people here would indicate that possibly the Cliff Dwellers are ar.te dated by ruins of a semi-civiliza-tion which waned many centuries ago. The ruins of irrigating canals, found in the southern part, is evidence that this country was densly populated at one time. The canals were scientifically constructed, and utilized for the maintaicance of thousands of hnman beings. While there are manyjruinsof the Cliff Dwellers here, the largest are to the mth ot us. Oi these ruins I wdl speak more fully later.

Frank Barnhill, who accompanied me here, has been employed as issue clerk for several months.

W7ith the best wishesjfor the success ot the schools of Montgomery county,

close. W. W. EWING.

Remember tho street fair on October 18, 19, 20, and 21, and encourage it with(' your mouth ifyou cannot with yourS money. 1

The proprietors of the three saloons butside the corporation, one of which is at the Junction, and the other two in the Valley on the Lafayetto road, have been notified by the city authorities that they must pay the regular city license or go out of business. It is probable that two at loast of the three will stop business while one may remain by paying the amount demanded, $250.

The Money Raised.

The finance com ni it tee for the peace jubilee and street lair has succeeded in rai-inar 82.500 in cash, which insures the bifigi'Gt street fair ever held iu this part of the country. Got ready for it.

Out on the water in the moonlight. A more beautiful or romantic situation for young man to tell the story of his love an-1 ask the young'woman of his choice to'shar^ his life cannot be imagined.

The courtship of a young couple may b'ever so romantic and their married life b-_ very unhappy. There are common sens considerations outside of love that have: world to do with the making of married happiness. One of the most important o*. these considerations is the good health o.both parties to the sacred tie. The younrr man who is in the incipient stages of cotsumption commits a crime if he marric before he is restored to health. He cordenins his wife to the life of a nurse anil his children to early death, or lives of sick ne-js and suffering. Dr. Pierce's Goldea Medical Discovery cures 98 per cent, of aii'1 cases of consumption if taken in its earlier: stages. This is its record established duj ing the past thirty years. It is the grei.'-. blood-maker, flesli-builder, nerve-tonic an..:: general restorative.

The young woman who suffers from weal:ness and disease of the delicate and important organs that make wifehood an motherhood possible has no right to answ( "Yes" to a young man's proposal until sixis thoroughly restored to health in a won anly way. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrir tion prepares a woman for wifehood an motherhood. It makes her strong, health and vigorous where a woman most neec health, strength and vigor. Thousands women have testified to its merits.

My daughter," writes Mrs. N. A. Thomas, Little Rock, Ark., "had been under a doctor care for four years. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pi scription, which cured me, also cured Ucr."
