FAMOUS BOY HEROES. BARES G DEEDS OF YOUTH OS THE BATTLEFIELD. i Pittsburg Dispatch. History tolls of more than one stur . dy youngster who, long before man hood was reached, was inured to the hardships of camp and the hazard of hattie. Many of these boy warriors with years and experience developed into great generals. Some did not, and their story is very sad* and brief indeed. Almost 2,000 years ago, when a monster named Maximin was Emperor of Borne, there dwelt in the imperial city a famous family called the Gor dian. The head of the Gordian had been ? appointed pro-consul of Africa, and his soldiers, becoming disgusted with the wrongs and brutalities committed byMaximiu. compelled him tc raise the banner of revolt and assume the purple.- At the time the pro-consul was an old man of 80, who for years thad left the administration of his of fice to his son, he would have been very glad to have ended his days in peaee and quiet had not his legions decreed it otherwise. Maximin, hearing of the revolt of the African troops, promptly dispatch ed an army against Carthage, where the Gordians .had established their court. The two Gordians perished, Hhe son in battle, and the father by his own hand'when inform eel of his son's death. Maximin's triumph was brief, how ever; he was soon afterward murdered by his own soldiers, who then took the last of the Gordians, a lad of 13, and carrying him through the camps, proclaimed him emperor-an honor as dangerous as it was exalted, for five emperors had fallen in less than a year, some in battle, some by poison and some by the knife of the assassin. As might have been expected, the reign of the boy was of short dura tion, j The great Roman world, made up of many different peoples and held together by force of arms alone, rose to throw off the yoke. Five years af ter he was made emperor, young Gor dian took the field with his army and hurried into Asia to repel the Per sians, who had assailed thc frontier. He had fought one or two unimpor tant battles, when he was poisoned at the -instigation of one of his generals, who aspired to the purple. Some centuries later, still another boy, a German prince, Conr?din by name, was struggling for that parc bf the Roman world known as the king dom of Naples, which his father had won from the degenerate Italians. He led his army in triumph over the Alps and through northern and central Italy. It was doubtless all like a gor geous pageant to the young prince, his ^ soldiers in their brilliant uniforms and polished armor, with waving silk en flags and pealing bands of music. Thus attended, Conradin swept down upon the borders of the kingdom he had come to claim, and his success seemed certain, when he suddenly found himself pitted against men cf experience. He was outgeneraled by the veteran Charles of Anjou. His troops were cut to pieces, while he himself was taken prisoner. His ex ecution was decided upon by Charles and infamously carried out. As he took his place, upon the scaffold, bravely ?nd unfalteringly, as became a prince, and bared his neck for the sword, he cried. "Oh, my mother, dreadful will be the grief that awaits you for my fate!" In the year 1200, in the city of Pal mero, there lived a sad enough little prince by the name of Frederick Ho fenstaufen, heir ?o the two kingdoms of Sicily and Germany. He was an orphan, and in Germany his uncles, Philip and Otho, of Brunswick, dis puted the crown, while Sicily, where he was recognized as king, was torn by strife and discord-Saracen, French and German strove for first place. In 'the turmoil ci these warring factions Frederick was well nigh forgotten. He was saved from absolute want by thc citizens of Palmero, who had a kindly feeling for the lonely child in his great empty palace. When 14 Frederick was declared of age. Several years later, at the head of ,a band of soldiers, he set out for Germany to take the crown. Otho was warned of his purpose, and endeav ored to intercept him before he cross ed the Alps, but by dint of hard rid ing the prince and his retinue reached and threw themselves behind the gates of Constance, just as Otho's men at ar m s closed down upon them. Prin ces and nobles flocked around the standard of the boyish leader. Otho was forced to retire to Brunswick, and Frederick at the head of a great army, set out for Frankfort, where the bar ons and electors of Germany were waiting to welcome him as their em peror. This boy from Sicily,'as he was call ed, developed into a great soldier and statesman, and in course of time came to be known as the "wonder of the world." It was a fair-faced English boy of 16, "The Black Prince," so-called because of the color of his armor, wh > led the English soldiers to victory ai Crecy. His father, King Edward III, water, ed the battle from a distance. Th French army far outnumbered the Enj lish, and the prince was hard presse and in danger of capture. Once h was so surrounded by his foes that th Earl of Warwiok sent a messenger i haste to the king, asking that assist ance be given the prince. "Is my son killed ?" asked the kin, as the messenger rode up. "No, air." The king heaved a sig] of relief. "Is lie wounded ?" "No, sir." v *"'Is he thrown to the ground ?" "No, but he is hard pressed ant needs your aid." "Then, if it is only that, I shal give him no help. I have set my hear on his proving himself a brave knight and I am resolved that the victorj shall be due to his own valor." Ten years later, in a subsequent campaign in Normandy, this same Black Prince achieved another splen did triumph at the battle of Ploiters, where he defeated and captured thc French monarch, John, and his son. Philip, a lad of 14. King John had with him his four sons, Charles, Louis, John and Philip. The three eldei boys were posted at different parts oi the field, Tvhile Philip, the youngest, followed his father, who plunged into the thickest of the fight, where he was soon in great danger of being taken. The little prince fought at his side, endeavoring to ward off the blows that were aimed at his father, while above the din of battle he could be heard calling on him to guard right or left, as his quick eye saw from what quarter he was threatened, ?fohn was finally forced to yield, though not un til he was abandoned by every one but Philip. There is no more romantic figure in history than that of Marquis de La fayette, who gave his sword and cour age to the cause of American liberty. The French king had endeavored in vain to keep the young soldier at home, his friends and relatives had tried to restrain him, but all to no avail, for he purchased a shi p in which to escape from France, his king and his ever-solicitous friends and family. He was an exceedingly rash youth from all accounts, for he did not hesi tate to freely express his sympathy for the American people while dining at the British ambassador's as well as his determination to aid them, if pos sible, in their struggle for liberty. 1 The British ambassador was so im pressed by the young enthusiast and j the use he might be to the enemies of his country that he demanded his ar rest of the French government and the seizure of his ship, which lay at an chor Tn the harbor at Bordeaux. Lafayette avoided arrest, reaching Bordeaux ahead of the royal warrant detaining his ship, and put to sea. When he landed in America he was coolly met. Congress was in great need of money, and there were many native officers who desired the rank the gay young Frenchman had come so far to claim. Lafayette had not crossed the At lantic for nothing, however; money I and rank were secondary consider ations with him. He declared his willingness to serve as a volunteer, in any capacity and without pay. Con gress was so much impressed by this that on July 31, 1777, a resolution was passed accepting his tender of services, and General Washington, who had been greatly attracted by his ardor, made him a member of his "military family." The battle of Brandywine afforded Lafayette the longed-for opportunity to distinguish himself, which he did to such g )od purpose that congress* ^gave him the command of a division. So that before he was 20 he was ac tually a general. But the day of the boy soldier did not cease with the age of chivalry and ro mance. Many of our generals who are leading our armies in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines began their careers fit the time of the civil war as boy sol diers, too, and were doubtless quite as brave and gallant as any?of their predecessors.

During the last two or three winters of our war. or rather spriDgs, our men would by a kind of mutual necessity go and serenade our general, the la mented Samuel McGowan, the man ef large brain, large heart and large en thusiasm-the man who could, in a half hour's speech, generate enough faith and enthusiasm in the brigade to do them all summer. At one of these serenades in 1864, on the line of the Rapidan, but a few days before the campaign opened, he i made us another enthusiastic speech; he enumerated all the West Pointers who had gone down in defeat and lost their official heads before our army. And as a severer resort they have im ported from the West one, Lieut. Gen. Grant, to whip us out, and now, men, when the campaign opens I want you to whip them and drive them from Dan to Beersheba. We ' knew very well where the Dan was, for we were encamped along its heights and had bathed and sported in its limpid wa ters, but where Beersheba was was somewhat indefinite, but we soon found out it was Richmond and Peters burg. Again in 1865 wc serenaded Gen. McGowan and got enthused again, and in conclusion he said: "Now. men, last spring I told you I wanted you to drive the enemy from Dan to Beer sheba; that you have gallantly and nobly done, and now, when the cam paign opens, I want you to drive them Sack to the Dan." This, comrades, we did do until we got to Appomattox, and there they refused to be driven any further, and when Gen. McGowan led his division (he commanded a di vision then) back to bevouac and came riding around our brigade the great tears were running down his cheeks because they had refused to be driven any more.-P. M. Blakely, in Clinton News. _ Policy of Government as to the Phil ippines. ? LONG BRANCH, N. J., Aug. 25.-Pres ident and Mrs. McKinley with Vice President and Mrs. Hobart, Garrett A. Hobart, Jr., Attorney General Griggs, Dr. and Mrs. Rixey, Private Secretary Cortelyou and Mrs. Barnett, arrived here at 7:45 this morning from Platts burg, N. Y. They were driven at once, to Vice President Hobart's cottage, Normanhurst. Soou after that the party was formally welcomed to Nor manhurst by the local reception com mittee. The committee tendered the president a public reception at the Hollywood hotel at night but Mr. Mc Kinley was compelled to decline. President McKinley addressed 12,000 people in the auditorium here this af ternoon . He was introduced by Bishop Fitzgerald. The president said: "I believe that there is more love for our country and that more people love the flag than ever before. Wherever that flag is raised it stands, not for despot ism and oppression but for liberty, op portunity and humanity, and what that flag has done for us we want ii to do for aU people and aU lands which by the fortunes of war have come within its jurisdiction. That flag does not mean one thing in the United States and another in Puerto Rico and the Philippines. .There has been doubt in some quarters respecting the policy of the government in the Philippines. I see no harm in stating it in this pres ence. Peace first, then with charity for all, establishing the government of law and order, protecting life and property, and occupation for the well being of the people who wiU partici pate in it, under the Stars and Stripes." The president will leave Long Branch on a special train at 7:45 to-morrow morning for Pittsburg. Tillman's Latest Outburst. The genuine Prohibitionists of South Carolina are neither hypocrites or cowards. No more so than is Sen ator Tillman. They have not been and are not as inconsistent as is Sena tor Tillman. They do not harbor the least hostility toward Senator Till man, and they would no more think of combining with the so-called local option liquor men, than they would of voting outright for the reinstatement of the saloon, grog-shop or brothel. But Senator Tillman need never ask the Prohibitionists of South Carolina to co-operate with him in developing the State's liquor business through the dispensaries or in any other way. They will do nothing of the kind. If, however, he will return to his original declaration of restriction and curtail ment, looking to the eventual aboli tion of the liquor business in South Carolina, he will find in these same Prohibitionists, whom 'he is now dis posed to abuse, themjst powerful and enthusiastic supporters that he has ever had in the State.-YorknUe En quirer. -nm ? tm A Negro Regiment? WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-Great pres sure has been brought to bear on the administration to organize a colored regiment for service in the Philippines. The matter is still under consideration by Secretary Root. It is reported that William P. Duval], captain First artillery (regulars) and lieutenant colonel of the Twenty-Sixth volunteers, will be made colonel of the regiment if it is decided to raise thc organization. It is also said that the lieutenant eolonel and other field oft - cers will be taken from thc regular army, but that the company officers would all be colored men. - More than 40,000 Americans have gone to Europe 6ince the 1st of Consumption of Quinine. More than 125,000,000 grains of ([uitnoe have been consumed by Amer ican soldiers during the past year. En some cases men who were in the hos pitals in Cuba and Porto Rico used as much as 300 grains a week, and hardly any have failed to use the drug at some period of their service. It is stated'that the people of this country consume one-third of the quinine of the world, the drug being used in the preparation of many patent medicines, tonics, bitters, cold cures, etc., as well as in pills and in bulk, and a con siderable quantity is consumed in the manufacture of hair tonics. The official figures in the treasury bureau of statistics show that there were imported last year into the Uni ted States .1,539,056,750 grains of quinine, and as there was practically no export of this article, this means that the consumption of quinine was about twenty grains for each inhabi tant. As is well known, qui Dine, Perovian bark and calisaya bark arc the products of the cinchona tree, which is a native of Western South America, more particularly of Peru and Ecuador. Now, however, but a small part of the supply comes from that region. At present two-thirds of the quinine consumed is produced in Java from cultivated trees. For many years the Dutch G-overment was urged to undertake thc cultivation of this plant from Peru. Finally this was accomplished and a large number of speciments of different varieties were obtained by botanists, who took them to Java in 1852. The English government also started cinchona plan tations in India which now produce large quantities of quinine.-Scientif ic American. - A Hoboken boy wanted some pigeons that belonged to a neighbor, but the owner kept such a" close eye on the birds that it was almost im possible to-get a chance at them. The man missed several of his pigeons, and l'or same days could not under stand how it was minaged. Then he kept stricter watch than ever, and ac last caught the Hoboken boy. He saw the urchin throw aquanity of corn upon the roof of his own woodshed next door then hide himself. The pigeons flew down to the corn and soon ate up most of it. Then the man was awe-stricken to observe that the pigeons did not fly'away, but dropped upon their sides, leering at him feebly, uttering inarticulate cackles. As soon as they were all laid out comfortably on t.ie woodshed roof that wicked Ho boken boy picked them up, hid them under his jacket and disappeared. The man climbed to the woodshed, ex amined the corn that was left and found it saturated with whiskey. The wicked Hoboken boy is in a police station to-night. - The Chicago Daily News says: "Old memories of the South before the war must have been aroused in the minds of many men who yesterday read of the journey which a Chicagoan, I once a slaveholder, has undertaken to ? save the life of his one-time slave. The ex-slave, living in Maryland, has been doomed to die upon the gallows; the master, hundreds of miles away, believes his former chattel innocent, and hurries to the rescue. Not even the smoke of war, the vicissitudes of fortune, or the passing of nearly forty years has made the white man forget the colored, or the master lose his in terest in the faithful servant of the past. There have been many such ro mances of old slave and old slavehold er since the war, and the hurried ride of the Chicagoan to the aid of 'His an tsbellum servant is one of the most touching stories of them all." - Northampton county is the birth place of one of the most remarkable men ever known in this State, one Miles Darden, who was born in 1799. He moved to Tennessee in 1829, and died near Lexington, Tenn., in 1857. He was seven feet six inches high, and weighed over 1,000 pounds. In 1839 his coat was buttoned around three men who weighed 200 pounds each, and they? walked across the public square at Lexington in it. In 1850 it reouired thirteen and a half yards of goods to make him a coat. His coffin was 8 feet long, 35 inches deep, 32 across the breast, 18 across the head, and 14 across the foot. It took twenty-four yards of black velvet to cover it. His hat was twenty-seven inches around the crown, and it is now in possession of the State Historical society, at Nashville, Tenn. Mr. Dar den was a mason, and a member of the First Baptist church. It is said that North Carolina will probably try to procure the ha; for the State museum.

AN L?NF?ILING SIGN THAT NATURE IS APPEALING "When Nature is overtaxed, she has her own way of giving notice that assist ance is needed. She does not ask for help until it is impossible to get along without it. Boils and pimples are an indication that the system is accumulating impurities which .CAD UCI P must be gotten rid of ; they are an urgent appeal for assistance rUn nCLFi -a warning that can not safely be ignored. To neglect to purify the blood at this time means more thanthe annoyance of painful boils and Unsightly pimples. If these impurities are allowed to remain, the system succumbs to any ordinary illness, and is unable to withstand the many ailments which are so prevalent during spring and summer. Mrs. L. Gentile, 20?4 Second Avenue, Seattle, Wash., says : " I wis afflicted for a long time with pimples, which were very annoying, as they disfigured my face fearfully. After using many other remedies in vain, S. S. S. promptly and thoroughly cleansed my blood, and now I rejoice in a rood complexion, which I never had before." Cant. W. H. Dunlap, of the A. G. S. R. ?., Chattanooga. Tenn., -writes: " Several boils and carbuncles broke out upon me, causing great pain and annoyance. My blood seemed to be in a riotous condition, and nothing I took seemed to do any good. Six bottles of S. S. S. cured me completely and'my blood has been perfectly pure ever since." 8. 8. 8.
