Col. Dick Ilalton.
The Jufterson City correspondent
of the lioouville Advertiser tells the
following story:
"I met lion. Dick Da'ton," said
one of Lis friends recently to me,
'last f-uuiuier in the circuit clerk's
office iti the court Louse at Monom
er City. I w as strangely impress
ed while listening to him narrate a
binguiar experience he had. Said
he: 'Do vou see this little package
I hold in my hand.' You notice that
the paper is yellow from age and it
is covered with dust. I want to tell
you a strange but true story in
connection with it. It was neatly
thirtv years aso I was a poor bov
living in Knox county, this state.
A sweet-spirited and kind hearted
lady manifested an interest in me
and took me to live with her upon
her little farm. One day while plow
ing, my horse became unruly and
gave me a tearlul kick on my lett
eg, just below the knee. My suf
fering was fearful. I was unable to
continue the work and attempted to
eturn alone to the house, one-half
mile distant. The good lady attract
ed by my screams came to me and
assisted me home. The wound was
carefully dressed by her, but fever
set in and I grew worse aud worse.
Doctors were summoned. They
pronounced the case a serious one
After a day or two of consultation it
was thought best, iu order to save
my life, to remove all pieces of
broken bones. This was done and
within a mouth or two I bean to
recover. Alter becoming auout re
stored, with the exception of a little
lamtness, I was attracted to another
part of the state, and I bade my
good friend an affectionate farewell
I had never seen that good lady who
had nursed me during that spell o
sickness until "Wednesday. I had
an appointment to speak near her
old home. After my speech, when
I thought every one who was inter
ested in me had come and shaken
hands with me, she modestly came
forward and introduced herself. Got"
bless hei! IIow happy I was to
meet her ajjain. She handed me
this package. In doing so she said
'When the doctor took those bones
out of your leg I saved them and
buried them under the window near
the old room where you lav sick so
long. I thought you might like to
have them returned to vou. Here
they are as I buried them thirty
years ago.' Mr. Dalton then stoo
up and showed us the wounded leg
with the long, deep, angry scars
made by the kick of the vicious
horse and the surgeon's knife. As
he talked and thought of his strug
gles in early life, how he suffered in
the little farm house in Knox coun
ty, as he lay upon his pallet, and as
he recalled the tender ministration
of the kind-hearted old lady, his
Irish heart melted and tears filled
his eyes."
Wrecked by Dynamite-.
Muscatine, Io., May 11 Three
houses were simultaneously wrecked
iu this city by dynamite at two
o'clock this morning. Thej
were owned and occupied by John
Mahin, editor of the Journal; E. M.
Kissinger, treasurer and active man
in the Muscatine County Temper
ance Alliance, and N- Kowenberger,
local attorney of the alliance.
An attempt to enforce prohibition
has greatly aroused the saloonkeep
ers. Four saloons were enjoined
Wednesday, and certain saloon men
it is claimed, by the victims, are
guilty of dynamiting. Kessinger's
house was stripped of floors, plas
ter and furniture, and its walls were
sprung. The Mahin and Rowen
berger houses were completely
wrecked. Koweuberger fell into the
cellar and was covered in debris and
a woman was blown out of an up
per window.
Miss Mahin was pinned beneath
furniture and was hurt by falling
between floor timbers. The three
houses contained 20 people, but
none of the others were hurt. The
loss aggregates $15,000. W. S.
Richie, a prominent witness in sa
loon cases, was warned by a friend
that he was on the list, and two men
were driven away from his place. A
large citizens' mass meeting was
held to-night, in which the deed
was denounced and action taken
towards the arrest of the criminals.
Rewards are to be offered.
Worried Over the Star GanR.
Coffeyviile, Kan., May 11. The
Starr gang of eight men was seen
two miles east of Caney yesterday
evening and fearing an attack on the
Denver, Memphis and Atlantic
train, a strong guard was taken on
i at Sedan. .No attack, however, was
i made. Starr and two of his men
were at Nowata Tuesday getting
horses shod and the leader said they
would have to make another haul as
they were running short of money.
It is thought here that the outlaws
were supplied with amuuition from
ere yesterday eveniug,as cartridges
ere sold bvr one of the hardware
stores. The brother of Starr s
weet heart was in town this week
and says there are nity-six men in
rang, but this is considered mere
boasting.
Dromedary and Bicycle to Hace.
Chicago, May 11. Abars Sahrs,
one of the Bedouin chiefs of the so
ciety Hamidie that is to give exhibi
tions of life in the desert at the
World's fair this summer, received
a challenge yesterday for a race be
tween his pet dromedary aud a Chi
cago byciclist. He said that his
fleetest auimal would go a mile in a
trifle under three minutes and re
ceived a severe pride wound by be
ing told that his pet would have to
be given a handicap of fifty yards
The prospect of winning, however,
got the better of him and he signed
articles for a mile race by electric
light some evening in July.
ltioting in Mexico
Durango, Mex., May 11. At
holiday celebration here a desperate
affray occurred between a mob of in
toxicated Mexicans aud the police,
which resulted iu the killing of four
of the mob and one policeman. A
large number of the. lower class o
Mexicans were parading the streets,
committing depredations of a serious
nature, when the police attempted
to suppress the lawlessness. The
mob fired upon the officers killing
Frederico Gerralvo and wouudiDg
two others. The police returnee
the fire killing four leaders of the
outlaws. The others were captured
and will receive the severest punish
ment for their oflense.

Italy's Crop Ruined.
Rome, May 11. Reports to th
government from the prefects of the
various districts throughout Italy
show that the drouth has caused
such damage to the grain crop tha
Italy will be compelled to import
this year 113i million bushels of
grain iu excess of the ordinary im
ports. The duty is five lire per
quintal; the receipts on this account
will probably cover the deficit in the
Italian budget.
The entire wheat crop of Italy
averages only 122 million bushels
and her normal imports are about
22 million bushels. The normal
corn crop is 80 million bushels; im
ports three millions; oat crop 17 mil
lions, imports 1J millions. It would
appear, therefore, from these figures
that Italy's grain crops are almost
entirely ruined.
"Can any one,' asked David Pierce
who is at the Lindell, "explain why
it is that America exports some of
the best cheese in the world and
imports some of the worst to take
its place? That it does so every
man that has traveled knows, and
he probably regrets it a3 well. In
the opinion of many the best cheese
that can be got in Europe is Ameri
can and the prices charged for it in
London and Paris are absolutely
normal, and not more than a third
or fourth the charges in this coun
try. As au economic proposition
one would imagine that the best
would go to the highest priced mar
ket, but for some reason or other it
does not appear so, and much of the
cheese sold in America would be
practically unsalable in Europe. Of
course, the frequenter of first-class
hotels can get what he wants prav
tically anywhere by paying for it,
but the peculiarity I have mention
ed makes itself very apparent when
one has to go to a hotel iu a small
citv or to take meals in a boarding
house or private
funily." Globe-

A Cr.ni!i Twite at the Wliitt Hue.
Washington. May 11. Hamilton
S. Saunders, a colored man from
Sumter, S. C, who declared that he
wanted the appointment of minster
to Mexico, arrived here Tuesday
evening and called at the White

day he showed up for a second time
and was placed under arrest. He
was identified as the insane man
with whom the police had a similar
experience about six weeks a.o.
I Am So Tired"
s a common exclamation at this sea-
sou, mere is a certain bracing el
fect in cold air which is lost when
the weather grows warmer; and
when nature is renewing her youth,
her admirers feel dull, sluggish and
tired. This condition is owing
mainly to the impure condition of
the blood, and its failure to supply
healthy tissue to the various organs
of.the body. It is remarkable how
susceptible the system is to the help
to be derived from a good medicine
at this season. Possessing just those
purifying, building-up qualities
which the body craves, Hood s bar-
8aparilla soon overcomes that tired
feeling, restores the appetite, puri
fies the blood aud in short imparts
vigorous health. Its thousands of
friends as with one voice declare
"It makes the weak strong."'
A girl in this city recently found
a lot of love letters written by her
father to her mother many years be
fore they were married. This daugh
ter read them to her mother, pre
tending they were of recent date,
and substituted her own name for
that of her mother's and the name
of a young man, well known to both
of them, for her father's. The
mother was very much disgusted
and has forbidden her daughter to
have anything to do with a young
man that will write "such nonsense
and sickening stuff.'' Osborne,Kau.,
