D. A. G. Outz is making som<
ugly revelations in dispensar
affairs. But is it not a litth
strange that Mr. Outz waited til
he was discharged from his jol
to make these damaging reve
r lations ?.
The first race between the Co
lumbia and Shamrock came of
Monday and resulted in a decidec
victory for the Columbia. Sh<
bounded across the finish lim
fully a mile and a half ahead o
the challenger, defeating her bj
10 minutes and S seconds.
We note with regret that wai
has been commenced betweei
England and the Boers of tin
Transvaal in central Southeri
Africa. Our sympathies are witl
the Boers. They are fighting t<
retain their homes and their government.
England, like the t'ni
ted States against the Phillipinef
is fighting to bring the Boer
under their dominion. With thi
unlimited resources that Knglatv
has the conflict must result ii
their favor, hence we regret t
see it begun.

New York, Oct. 14.?At 12 3
this (Saturday) morning the fir
again broke out in the building
of the Rush independent stores
which were partially destroye
by fire yesterday afternoon. Th
fire this morning apparently stai
ted in building No. 2, which wa
~ separated from No. 3 by a briel
wall two feet in thickness. Build
ing No. 3 was totally destroye
yesterday and it is thought at thi
hour, 2 30 A. M., that buddin
No. 2 will also prove a total lost
The fire boats, which had not lei
the scene, were at once broiurh
into use and a series of fire alarm
called hack the engines and com
panies which had been employe
until a late hour in putting on
the flumes on (he first fire. Build
ing No. 2 contained about 10.00
bales of cotton, valued at $250,
000 to $300,000. Three fireme
were overcome by the smoke an
the fire is not vet under centre
The officials of the Bush indepen
dent stores estimate that the to
tal loss in consequence of the fir
in both ware houses will certain
]y exceed $500,000. Ware hous

During the winter of 1H!?7 Mi
James Heed, one of the leading oiti
zens and merchants * of Clay (Jo
W. Va., struck his leg against a cak
of ice in such a manner as to bruise i
severely. It became very much swolle
and pained him so badly that be ooul
not walk without the aid of crotchet
He was treated by physicians, als
used several kinds of liniment an
two and a half gallons of whiskey i
bathing if, but nothing gave any re
lief until he began using Chamber
Iain's Pain Halm. This brought alums
a complete cure in a week's time am
he bplieves that had he not used thl
remedy his leg would have had to b
amputated. Pain Balm is unequalpi
for sprains, bruises and rheumatism

f IN MEMORY OF C. A. BECKHAM.
y :
Tribute of lie spec t from Cedar
J Camp, No. 79, W. O. W.
The reaper death has already
invaded the fair forest of Cedar
J Canap, No. 70, and one of its most
beautiful trees has been laid low.
C. A. Beckham was the incar
nation of the principles which
constitute a gentleman. Hand
? some in person, graceful in move
0 ment, with that bearing which at
v once commended him to the best
0 feelings of strangers, and with
1 that constancy ot heart and nature
3 which endeared him more and
" more to his friends, gentle and
winning in manner, his loss is a
loss which is felt, which is feltdeeply,
which is felt with in
^ creasing and painful force.
* It is hard to realize that C. A.
Beckham is no more; harder still
i to reconcile oneself to the vacant
r
place at the camp (ire of No. 79.
But though we deplore the loss
of our brother, and the foliage of
our forest is wet with the dews of
griel, yet we recognize, and re1
joice in, the fact that he does not
lie a lifeless tree, but has only
1 been transplanted to that forest
1 whose saps flow on forever, whose
1 roots are deep bedded in celestial
soil, and whose leaves shall never
fade nor fall.
^ Brother Beckham was born
8 .June 27th 18<>7, was married in
e November 1897, to Mrs. Fannie
rl Cureton Beckham, and passed
n from our mortal sight, no more
on earth t<> greet us, Sept. loth,
1899.
Farewell, dear brother, farewell
1 Let memorv's flowers of
V A - r ' '
- sweeiesi irii?rance not Jorpret to
bloom within our hearts until we
too, fadeless and pure, shall be
11 ourselves transplanted to the
1- eternal forest. There we will
meet thee a^ain, friend, brother,
beyond the river mid the peace
ful repose of the home of the soul.
