ASSOISCEME5TS. SCHOOL AND CHURCH. THE GUESTS DIDN'T COME. DAILY REPUBLICAN. OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY.

Tbe United States flagship Chicago, now playing a complimentary visit to Ireland, has been enthusiastically received by the people. At Queenstown the impulsive Irish captured officers and crew, took them everywhere, feted them and feasted them, and the mayor of the ci sang "The Star Spangled Banner." A Tremendous Shaking Up. This is what every system afflicted with chilis and fever, bilious remittent, or any other form of malarial disease, undergoes periodically. Not only is malaria terrible in itself it is the breeder of an infinity of bodily ailments. Specifics used for its prevention and removal prove, in the vast majority of cases, useless for every other pun ose than to mitigate the di.

ease and stave off its attacks, i bey are sure, with the average treatment, to return after awhile. The sufferer may change his location to a healthier one, but the complaint, which is in his blood, is not thus lightly got rid of, and returns after tbe wonted interval. Organie affections of the nerves, heart trouble, general debility the system, are the oil spring of malaria. Cure the originating cause and avert future physical injury wth Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, etflcac ous also in liver complaint, inactivity of the kidneys, rheumatism and indigestion. All the meteorites found are catalogued.

Most of them are composed of iron, with a little nickel and cobalt, and sometimes copper and tin. These meteorites are usually sawed into slabs, then polished and sometimes etched in order to show the cryBtaline structure. Mr. Thomas Batte, editor of the Graphic, Texarkana, Arkansas, has found what he believes to be the best remedy in existence for the flux. His experience ia well worth remembering.

He sajs: "Last summer I had a very severe attack of flux. I tried almost every known remedy, none giving relief. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhce i Remedy was recommended to me. I purchased a bottle and received almost immediate relief. I continued to use the medicine and was entirely cured.

I take pleasure in recommending this remedy to any person suffering with such a disease, as in my FAMOUS LONG RIDES. Soldiers and Scouts Who Rode on Imperative Orders. The recent cowboy race from Chad-ron, to Chicago, and the excellent condition of the horses used by the riders at the conclusion of the trip, which goes to prove the stamina and enduring qualities of the western bred horse, and was one of the marvels of the race, calling forth as it did, the admiration of rough riders everywhere and securing from the agents of the humane society a certificate that, with few exceptions, the horses were in good health when they reached this city, brings to mind some famous longdistance rides by scouts, soldiers and dispatch carriers on the western plains. These riders performed feats with their horses that brought forth encomiums from generals in the army, and in the light of recent events are well worth the relating. All these trips were in the face of dangers not met with on the Chadron race every man was riding in the performance of duty, and pluck and endurance were displayed by both men and horses.

From the nature of things there have been few long races under conditions similar to those of the cowboy contest, but there have been many splendid examples of endurance on the part of American soldiers and plainsmen riding American horses. A story is current in the southwest that a frontiersman named F. X. Aubrey years ago galloped from Santa Fe to Independence, in a few hours less than seven days. The distance was eight hundred and forty miles, and he had four changes of horses.

He won a wager of one thousand dollars, but was so exhausted that he had to be lifted from his horse at the end of his journey. Gen. Phil Sheridan has left a record in his autobigraphy of a ride by CoL W. F. Cody while carrying dispatches in Kansas in 186S, then an unsettled country with hostile Indians.

It was in the winter, but "Buffalo Bill" rode three hundred and fifty miles in less than sixty hours. He had several changes of horses." While a pony express rider, Col. Cody covered his own division and that of another rider, who had been killed the night before by Indians. The round trip of three hundred and twenty-four miles was made without a stop except for meals and to change horses, and Buell's "History of the Plains," which contains the record, says the riders were scheduled to average fifteen miles per hour. On June I860, James A.

Moore received an important government dispatch at Midway station, in Western Nebraska. He carried it to Julesburg, a distance of one hundred and forty miles, and met another government message coming east. The rider who should have carried it had been killed by Indians the day before, and Moore started on the return trip after resting only seven minutes. He made the round trip of two hundred and eighty miles in fourteen hours and forty-six minutes, perhaps the most remarkable speed ever made. The west-bound dispatch, which relieved Johnston from the command of the army on the coast, was carried from St.

Joseph to Sacramento, over nineteen hundred miles, in eight days, nine hours and forty minutes. On the pony express there were riders at intervals of seventy-five to one hun-hundred and fifty miles, and they changed horses every fifteen or twenty-five miles. The distance from St. Joseph to San Francisco was nineteen hundred and ninety-six miles. The first trip was made in ten days, the second in" fourteen, and the third and many others in nine days.

The trip from St. Joseph to Denver, a distance of six hundred and twenty-five miles, was once made in two days and twenty-one hours. During the late Indian war near Pine Ridge Agency, Col. Guy Henry's colored command rode one hundred and two miles and fought two skirmishes in thirty and one-half hours. The actual time in the saddle was twenty-two hours.

These cavalrymen carried extra ammunition, and blankets weighing twenty-five pounds. During the Indian troubles of 1879 that resulted in the Meeker massacre, Sergeant Murphy rode one hundred and seventy miles ie a little less than twenty-four hours to secure relief for Colonel Thornburg's command, which had been surrounded by Indians. The record is not explicit, but the presumption is that Murphy could not break through the Indian line with more than one horse. At any rate, considering the mountainous country, poor roads, and the night riding, it was a phenomenal performance. During the Indian troubles of 1876 Colonel Stanton rode with important dispatches from Fort Laramie in Wyoming to Fort Robinson in Nebraska a distanca of one thousand miles, in the twelve hours between noon and midnight.

He used but one horse. In 1870 four men of Company First Cavalry, rode with dispatches from Fort Harney to Fort Warner, one hundred and forty miles, the last twenty in sand, in twenty-two hours. The actual marching time was eighteen and one-half hours. General Miles has a record of one hundred and fifty miles in thirteen hours, stopping only long enough to change horses. This was made in New Mexico in 1885.

In 1877 Captain Ezra B. Fuller made a scout after Chief Joseph in the mountainous country of Montana, and covered three hundred and fifty miles in five days. A part of his command continued the scout, and rode six hundred miles in twelve days. In 1882 Lieutenant BelL of the Sev- 1 enth cavalry, rode one hundred and five miles in North Dakota in twelve hours with one change of horses. A scout attached to Colonal Lawton's command once traveled "four hundred and fifty miles in the Sierra Madre mountains on one horse in seven days and nights.

Alexander, Citv Clerk. Lower Fare to World's Fair, The Santa Fe route has lowered the World's fair rate.

It Wai Their First Dinner Party and the Cook Was Cross. They had only been married a month andjt was their first dinner party, consequently they were both a little flurried when the time came for the guests to arrive. She had superintended the arrang--ing of the table herself and now stood surveying its obviously new silver, glass and linen, with housewifely pride. "Do you really think everything will go well, Edward?" she asked for the twentieth time. And for the twentieth time he answered: "Of course it will all go welL I only pity the poor fellows who no little wife and no home of their own." Edward, how nice!" she gurgled, "and how I do pity the poor girls who have no nice, kind husbands.

There is Edith. She is such a sweet girl, she really ought to know how nice it is to be married." "Yes, indeed; and then there is George. He has no idea of what happiness he is missing." She walked into the parlor, and standing before the mirror, rearranged the rose in her hair. "Do you like it so?" she asked. "It is lovely.

Poor George, how he must envy me?" "And, Edward, I do feel sorry for Edith. IJark, is that a carriage?" They both fell into easy attitudes of expectancy, but the carriage rolled on. He took out his watch and looked at it; it was just 7T dear," she moaned, "I'm afraid they will not be prompt, and my notes said 7 sharp." "Perhaps my watch is fast," he said, soothingly. She moved her lace pin a replaced it, regarding herself in the glass with a critical air. He walked up and down with his hands in his pockets.

dear," she wailed, "they are late already, and the cook will be so cross; 6he looks perfectly colossal when she is cross, Edward." "And the women will have to chatter half an hour in the dressing-room after they do come," he groaned. "Why, Edward, how unkind as if the'men did not like to stay just as long with their horrid cigars!" "Listen, here they come!" They fell again into position, but the wheels passed on. "It is odd," she said; "people never kept mamma waiting in this way; they were always anxious to come to her house." "Perhaps they have gone there now?" "Why, Edward! But I do wish they would come. I'm afraid the dinner is ruined. I don't dare to go to see.

I wonder if I might call down the tube?" "Of course," was the airy response. "I say, this is an awful bore. I envy George, nobody expects him to give dinner parties." "And I envy Edith, she has no one to talk unkindly to her." The clock chimed the half-hour. "You are sure you said 7 sharp?" "Of course I am. I am not quite an imbecile yet if I have married you." "Who is talking unkindly now?" I never thought you would treat me so when you begged me to marry you." "I only asked you once and you said yes quick enough." "I never thought vou would be a brute." "And I never thought you would be a virago." "Nobody will accept my invitations now, just because I have married you mamma said I was making a mistake." "People were always glad enough to accept my invitations before I was married." "Verv well, if you want to be free I will go home." "If you want to go, pray don't allow me to detain The clock chimed out eight strokes, carriages kept rolling- by, but none of them stopped.

She swept into the bedroom and began opening drawers and boxes and taking out their contents, which she could not see for her tears. He tried to hum "After the Ball," watching her movements furtively tnrough the open door. Would she really leave him? And what would the boys say if she did? She tumbled the costly things about in a careless fashion. What did their beauty matter now when she was going home with a broken heart to die! "But why did everybody stay he muttered between his teeth. "Haven't we a friend in the world?" she asked herself.

Then she g-ave a cry. Her eye had fallen on a white heap in the corner of a drawer. "Edwardl" she cried, in tragic tones, "here are all my invitations now I had forgotten to mail them!" They looked at each other a moment those two who were about to part forever; then a smile curled the corners' of her mouth; in an instant she was clasped in his arms. Then a shrill whistle sounded from the tube and an offended voice called: "Would yez be havin' any dinner Edward!" she whispered, how shall I ever tell the cook?" Chicago Tribune.

"I'd be ever so much obleeged, ma'am" began the grimy wanderer on the back porch, in a plaintive voice, "for a little jag cold victuals.

The last large reception given by ex-Postmaster General and Mrs. Wanamaker, it will be remembered, was to the employes of the post office department, without regard to age, sex or previous condition of servitude. In speaking of the approaching entertainment one of the guests of the house, thinking to please the dignitary of the kitchen by remarking on the great number of acceptances received, said: "We shall have a great crowd here to-night; we have 1,033 acceptances." "Yes," responded the chef, loftily ignoring a respect of persons in his reply, "and they will bring 1,033 empty stomachs with them." No Hope for Him.

It was a remarkable bit of newspaper reporting and the young man is well entitled to the thanks of the club, as well as the congratulations of his friends, of whom he has many in Kansas. AMERICA FOR AMERICANS. To maintain an Independent monetary sys-torn for this country the tariff should be reformed, not in the direction of free trade, but adjusted on a higher scale than that laid down in the McKinley bill.

In other words, make the tariff so high as to practically prohibit the importation of foreign goods, and thus prevent the drain of gold and silver from this country to pay foreign balances. The free list, embracing only the necessaries of life, can possibly be increased and a tariff so hign be placed on luxuries as to materially lessen tbeir importation, at least, to a revenue basis. A policy of this kind would certainly make the United States independent of England.

It is not generally known that In the mountains of eastern Tennessee there lives a class of peculiar-looking people whose origin is wrapped in mystery and who are called by the whites Melun-geons.

The legend of their history, which they carefully preserve, Is this: A great many years ago these mountains were settled by a society of Portuguese adventurers, men and women, who came from the shore of Virginia, that they might be freed from the restraints and drawbacks imposed upon them by any form of government. They made them-Belvea friendly with the Indians, and, freed, as they were, from every kind of social government, they uprooted all 'conventional forms of society and lived In a kind of delightful Utopia of their own creation, trampling upon the marriage relation, despising all forms of religion and subsisting upon corn the only possible produot of the soli and the game of the great forests. They intermixed with the Indians and subsequently with the negroes, and thus formed the present race of Melungeons. They are tall, straight, well-formed people, of a dark copper color, but with Circassian features. They were privileged voters in the old slave days and accredited citizens.

They are brave but quarrelsome, and are hospitable to strangers. They have no preachers among them and are almost without any knowledge of a Supreme Being. They marry by established forms, but husband and wife can separate at pleasure without meeting with any reproach or disgrace from their friends. They have but little association with their neighbors, and are ia every respect, save that they are under the jurisdiction of the state government, a separate and distinct people. for Infants" Castor! a is so well adapted toohildren that I recommend it as superior to any prescription known to me."
