Tie Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, March 19,1S02. [Written for the Dispatch.] THS MARCH 'WIND. EY VICTOR CAELYLE. The wind comes roncd the corner, Singing the same old tune That it sung to me long years ago, When ycuth was full of bloom. "Boreas' chords are iust the same, That he struck long years ago, For the same great Master tuned the strings And He's tuned them o'er and o'er. My heart always supplied the wo-ds. To his chord so weird and wild, And I waited Lis coming every year, Since I was a thoughtless child. Bat tonight the words that my heart dictates, Are sad. yea full of teais. For sorrow has found me many times, In ail these weary years. The birdlings that brightened and cheered my life, Have chosen their mates and tlown. And the nest was destroyed by a ruthless band. And I a wanderer am left to mourn. Augusta, u-a. Danger of Colds and La Grippe. The greatest danger from colds and la grippe is their resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all danger will ; be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these diseases, we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventive of that dangerous malady. It will cure a cold or an attack of la | grippe in less time than any other j treatment. It is pleasant and safe j to take. For sale by J. E. Kaufmann. Peaca May Be In Sight. LondoD, March 14 ?It was officially announced today that Field Marshal Yvolseley, accompanied by Major Thornscroft, will sail from Soutfcamton tomorrow for Capetown. The announcement has caused a pecsation, and scores of reasons are advanced as the motive. Those who know stated positively that General Wclseley goes to South Africa as an envoy of King Edward to make an investigation cf conditions and report to the king. It is generally believed that the mission means that the confidence which the king and cabinet had in the war's alleged progress has been shaken. It is understood that Wolseley will act independent of Kitchener and other generals in South Africa. It is believed King Edward seeks to briDg the war to an end before his coronation, as was recently declared would be done, and that he relies largely on "Wolseley's mission to bring about that result. For The Complexion. The complexion always suffer from biliousness or constipation. Unless the bowels are kept open the impuri ties irom tne ooay appear in me j form of unsightly eruptions. DeWitt's Little Early Risers keep the liver and bowels in healthy condition and remove the cause of such troubles. C. E. Hooper, Albany, Ga, says: "I took DeWitt's Little Early Risers for biliousness. They were just what I needed. I am feeling better now than in years." Never gripe or distress. Safe, thorough and gentie. The very best pills. J. E. Kaufmann. 2s It "Warren's Body? Special to the Columbia State. Branchville, March 14?The body of a man?supposed to be that of Bartow "Warren?was found floating in the Edisto river this morning about a quarter of a mile below where the expresa safe was thrown into the j river some time ago. The body is badly decomposed j and up to this time has not been j positively identified. There were a shell belt and two i pistols buckled around the body. There were express envelopes in the man's pockets but they have not been examined yet. The Coroner of Col leton county has been notified and will probably hold the inquest tomorrow morning. One eye and a half of the side of j the face are gone. The body meas- j ures 5 feet 8 inches: the shoe is num. ber six, the hand resembles that of a woman. There is a gold filling in ,nv.1 M-ii Ttrrea.uin wujjwmmtTrrarT:wT=.w?4.'mg,'m,ji one tooth. A belt around the body contains two 38-calibre, G-inch barrel | pistols and he wore one cheap watch, j showing time 8 45. Blue coat and vest and dark check pants are the j | attire. ! On account of the decomposition | of the body it could not be positive- | ly indentihed, but from what parties ! say it is almost certain that it is the j body of Bartow Warren. If not Warren it is almost certiin that it is the body of one of the men connected witu the express robbery near I Fifty-eight on the night of January . , ! 27th. Tha inquest has not been > held and a guard will be left with j the body until the coroner arrives. There were several express envelopes found on the body containing some money but the amount is not known. The most reasonable theory advanced is that in crossing the river after dumping the safe, the robber, weighted by the heavy pistols and cartridges was drowned. C La Grippe Quickly Cured. "In the winter of 1898 and 1899 I F( was taken down with a severe attack of what is called La Grippe," says ^ PI F. L. Hewett, a prominent druggist of Winfield, III. "The only medicine I used was two bottles of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. w It broke up the cold and stopped the coughing like magic, and I have never ^ since been troubled with Grippe." ^ Chamberlain's Cough Remedy can . ! always bo depended upon to break up a severe cold and ward cff any 0 threatened attack of pneumonia. It - . . * . 1 ni is pleasant to taue, too, which makes fr it the most popular preparations in use for these ailments. For sale by j 1 CC J. E. Kaufcnann. ? African vs. American Cotton. ; E i w Berlin, March 13 ?The negroes of ^ the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial ^ institute who were engaged the latter part of 1000 by the German government to teach the natives of Togohnd, German West Africa, how to grow 111 ft] cotton have, according to the report of the colonial committee, succeded in producing cotton which is graded ** on the Bremen exchange above American middling. The Tuskegee ^ negroes have demonstrated that the ^ land in Togoland is suitable for cot- ja ton of which there is great abund- ^ ance. The only obstacle to the _ . ai commercial utilization of this product is transportation and especially get- ^ ting the bales to the coast. The colonial committee has sent an expe- j ?c dition of engineers to survey for a j . railroad from the coast town of Lome \ i H to Palime, in the interior. ; bi Governor Altgeld Dead. j ^ Former Governor Altgeld, of Iili- w nois, received a stroke cf paralysis j tc just as he concluded his speech at a ; pi pro-Boer meeting at Joilet last week, j q< from the effectB of which he died the j di same night. The conclusion of his j m speech in behalf of the Boers, im- j d] mediately after which he was stricken, j was as follows: "I am not discouraged. ThiDgs j L will right themselves.

Evnapp, chairman of the Inter-State commerce commission, delivered a lecture to-night in Cooper Union on 'Transportation'' in which he advocated the Government ownership of ill railroads. In part Mr. Knapp ! said: "As I view this matter the State aas as much right to farm out the au9inees of collecting its revenues or preserving the peace and allow the parties entrusted with these duties n varv the rate of taxation, accord ng to their own interests or to sell personal protection to the highest oidaer, as it has to permit the great ! 'unciion of public carriage to be j nade the subject of special bargains j )r secret dicker, to be made by fa- j roritism or oppression by extortion."
