Am! this applies generally. Looking
down on the city the change is more
apparent tb in it b from any one place
in tin* streets. Rising out of tin* vast
beds of debris like mushrooms are
hundreds of low buildings of brick,
frame or cement, with here and then*
a loft.v structure of "< lass A.”
Seemingly almost underneath is the
new Chinatown. 'Hie picturesque and
mysterious old frame shacks, long so
alluring to tourists, were licked up by
the Hemes of April is. RHjd, which left
behind deep foundation holes and un
derground passages choked with d *
bris. Now conventional two and tlm*.
story brick or cement buildings are
rising on the ..1.1 sites, and the sons of
the orient are preparing to move hack
into structures which suggest sumo
staid country village more than thev
do pagodas, pigtails, girl slaves and
opium dens.
The clock on the ferry building,
which so long by its motionless hands
bore mute evidence that a calamitv
had struck a great city at sixteen min
utes after b o’clock, again keeps track
of tin* hour in a tower which lias been
rehabilitated from a sorrowful state of
semi ruin, and the pole of the time hall,
once I tent, is again erect.

nearly ready for occupancy and sonic
towers of steel in various stages of

pioneers who conquered the wilderness

“I Lave fired the walking-stick I’ve
carried over 40 years, on account of
a sore that resisted every kind of
treatment, until I tried Bucklen’s
Arnica Salve; that has healed the
sore and made me a happy man,”
writes John Garrett, of North Mills,

This wonderful endurance of 'in* Ala

able when it is considered that In* vva>
feeble in earlv life ami his disai.iiilies
were a great trial to him during his
army career.

In tin* a '-a 'ination of Lincoln, says
th.* Washington post.
< tf course Senator Morgan was not
only innocent, but actually did no:
bear of Lincoln's death until n week
after it had -eiirred. He was then a
farmer in Dallas county, his practice
of law having been prohibited by the
federa! auili >riti<*s, and be was plow

‘■For what am I indebted for tbi
visit?”
"I have eonie to l.e Kent t<» Wasb-
Ington," remarked Morgan. "I under
stand you have an order to send ni<*
there.”
Dener.ai M*-\rtliur expressed surprise
to learn that tlie existence of the order
was known ami smiled when Den.*rai
Morgan told him that ex-Confederate-
bad not lost tin ir habit of acquiring io
formation. Then be remarked that the
order would not be obeyed—or at least
not until there bad been a reasonable
delay. This did not suit Morgan, vv h *
wauled to g,, to Washington to present
soim* . laitiis for destroyed cotton an i
was quite willing to travel at govern
m.'iit expense.
"I want to make one request of yon,"
said Morgan. "When I went into the
war I had mto in gold in a bank in
Selma. When 1 eann* back from tin*
war I found that my gold had given
place to Kir,. I in Confederate money.
With that .Sir,,!mi.i I bought half a box
of tobacco. With some of tie* tobacco '
I secured coffee and sugar and shoes
for ni.v family, and the rest of it went
for seventeen stioats. I kept those
shoals until they were fat enough t<>
kill, ami now I !•'ve mots* meat than
| any other man in !(alias county. When
I go to Washington, general, I want ;
j you to put a guard around my smoke
