JIAV YET GET ON THE TICKET Democratic Township OfRoars Not to Bo Denied Any Right ? . AIDITOR MATTHtWS WILLING TO LET 'EM IN \ iKlf t f \oinlnatliip : Convention May lit * Itrnilcri-il Im-flri-llvi ; If AllI.run I \ VnjIK Dnoncil to the Auditor , The two democratic township candidates will not be left off the otndal ballot If there can ho discovered any means to prevent It. The offices are minor ones , but Mr , Swearcn- gen , candidate for justice of the peace , saya he Is determined to be Just as persistent as If his nomination was for the office of gov ernor of the state. Paul Aylesworth , nom inee for township trustee , nn olllco that pays about $7.50 a year , announces with equal vigor that It IB the principle of the thing that Is compelling him to make a fight. They do not think they should * uTcr ( on account of a slight oversight on the part of the con vention officers In falling to certify their nomination to the county auditor within the tlmo prescribed by law. Yesterday they ap plied to the district court for n writ of man damus to compel County Auditor Matthews to place their namcn on the ballots. The writ Is made returnable on Thursday and the attorneys for the candidates resort that un ices there arc objections filed with the clerk of the courts before that time they will bo entitled to the writ prayed for. The only P rsou authorized to make these objections Is County Attorney Saunders. and he had no official notification of the application up to last evening. The democrats assert that the republican auditor refused to file the certificates of the two candidates when they were presented on Tuesday , but this Is a mistake. The cer tificates wcro filed but there was a positive refusal to place them on the nlllclal ballot , for the reason that the law says the certifi cates "shall be filed not sooner than sixty days nor lets than twenty days prior to the election. " On the face of It this appears to bo mandatory , but there Is some doubt In ( lie mind of Auditor Matthews. He Is Inclined to glvo the candidates the benefit of the doubt and will place their names on the ticket If ho Is convinced tint ho Is not abso lutely forbidden to do so , and for this reason luIs anxious to have the matter Judicially determined before the copy for the tickets Is sent to the printer. There Is some reason for believing that the law Is directory rather than mandatory. The Rcctl' n of the new code providing for the ill- Ing of certificates of tax levies Is couched In identically the same language , but the supreme court has held In the case of Taylor against McFadden , 8-lth Iowa , page 262 , that this Is not mandatory , and that the auditor must receive- the tax levies If presented al'icr the period named In the law. U may ho held that this case will apply to the one under consideration when the court comes to hear the arguments. The admission of the names will not delay the printing of the tickets erIn In any manner discommode the auditor , and for this reason he Is very anxious to comply with the wishes of the canJIdates. The attorneys for the candidates say there ore several other ways to secure the printIng - Ing of the names on the ballots , and they will be resorted to If the mandamus proceed ings fall. One Is for the candidates to re sign and create vacancies on the ticket. The now law provides that In that case it shall be the duty of the party committee to select and certify the names to the auditor , and that he shall have them printed on the tickets. The law even permits , If the vacan cies occur by death or otherwise , within eight days before the election , the auditor to destroy all of the printed ballots and print a new set , with the names of the new candi dates upon them. Investigation yesterday showed that there were several townships In the county where the tame oversight has been made , MRS. SMITH I.KAVKS 111311 IIOMK. Wife of R l.aliorrr DlMapiicarM for Xo Apparent HUIINOII. Mrs. H. R. Smith , about 25 years of age , Is missing from her homo on Twenty-fourth etrcet and Avenue G , since last Saturday noon , an.l her hus band and friends have become greatly alarmed. Smith Is a laborer , and as far as cun be learned , lias lived very happily with his wife. He has steady employment all summer and has provided well for his home. On Frlduy afternoon he gave his wife a small amount of money for the ordinary household expenses. On Saturday forenoon she epcnt a portion of It and when she returned at noon from her Saturday's shopping she still had about ? 2.fiO. After dinner her husband came up town leaving Iris wife busy about her work. When he returned at supper time the house was closed. Nothing was thought of It until the hours passed along Into evening and Smith began to make In quiries among the neighbors. He then learned that she was seen leaving the cot tage shortly after noon , carrying a vallso and going cist on Broadway. Investigation disclosed tha fact that all of her best cloth ing was gone. The only trace that Smith or her f i lends could discover was obtained ut a Droadway restaurant In the vicinity of the Northwestern city depot , where she stopped and purchased a pie SHuyJay evening. Smith and his friends say that.there Is no roison for the woman going away In the manner she did. They fear she has become suddenly unbalanced mentally and has wan dered away. The police of both Council Bluffs and Omaha were asked yesterday to assist In locating her. The couple has no children. HllNlllfNH Mrll'N AhHIK-llltloil.

Yesterday was the anniversary of the bat tle of Winchester , the fight that gave Gen eral Sheridan the chance to make his fa mous ride from Winchester to the battlefield at Cedar creek , twenty miles away. Major W. H. Spera of this city Is one of the few survivors of Sheridan's staff and mute the famous darh from Winchester with the gen eral. Yesterday he was the center of an ani mated group of old soldiers and spent sev eral hours In detailing his personal experi ences on the battlefield on that October day thirty-three years go. Every Incident con nected with the day was vividly fresh In his mind , and ho entertained his audience In a highly satisfactory manner. Mr. Spera was major of the Seventeenth Pennsylvania cavalry and commanded Sherldin's escort. In his narrative of the ride and the great victory that marked Its close he shatters several of the cherished superstitions that have become classic In war literature , espe cially the one that describes the gallant cav alry commander stopping the hordes of routed soldiers who were ficelng from Early's victorious army and shouting , "Face the other way , boys ! Face the other way ! " It was all that Sheridan and hU escort could dote to make their way along the pike In the face of the advancing columns of the re treating federal troops , but he says Sheri dan did rise In his stirrups several times tnd use some vigorous EnglMi In telling the boys not to get too far In the rear'when the battle was being fought. He Is In clined to sustain Thomas Duchanan Reed's poetical description of Sheridan's horse , the famous black charger , "Ulonza , " which he dcsclbcs as a big , ugly , vicious brute that nobody but Sheridan could ride. "Sheridan was notoriously profane , " said Major Spera yesterday , "and I never saw so much real good come from a genuine up and down orthodox cussing IR came from his appeals to the men to form line nnd wall until he got hie promised 'twist' on the enemy. He didn't spare his cuss words , but poured them out right and left. They had an electrical effect upon the crowd. " As a coincidence Major Spera received yesterday copies of an eastern publication contaViIng a lengthy account of his per sonal experiences In the battle and on the rise. Ho prepared the account some tlmo ago and offered It for publication. The re ceipt of the copies was the first Intimation he had received that It was considered avail able by the eastern editor. Hi-puty Sheriff llakor Hi-torn * . Deputy Sheriff liaker returned yesterday from Anamosa , where he went to assist the warden In returning""Doe" Hutlcr , the Grls- weld bank robber , to the penitentiary after he had given bin testimony In the McIIugh ease. Haker was somewhat surprised to find a couple of Council Bluffs men doing time In the prison. They were WlllHm Mackaben , commonly known hero as Shustcr , and a young man named Sorrenson. They had been tramping In the eastern part of the state and had been convicted for breaking Into a building. They were serving three- year sentences for burglary. While waiting for the "train at Marion the officers had to stay all night , and when they went to the county jail to deposit their prisoner for fiafe keeping Uaker found a young man In JaJl there named Dungan , who was well known In Council lilufts a year or two ago. He was awaiting trial on a charge of burglary. While hero young Dungan was connected with a hardware store. Tore IIIH Koot Off , Charles Green , a young farmer living on Keg creelc seven miles from the city , lost a foot yesterday by the accidental discharge j of a shotgun. The weapon was loaded and ! was hanging on the wall In the house , muz- I zlo downward. A large hawk came In the I vicinity of the house and young Green made i a quick movement to get the gun. In taking 1 It from the nail It was discharged. The load | of shot grazed his knee cap and struck squarely In the top of his foot , tearing it to pieces. The young man had a narrow es cape from bleeding to death before a phy sician could be secured. i .

The glasses were going round , relates the Louisville Courier-Journal , when the man who had been in the navy spoke : "Walt a minute , boys. We've hid several. Let me give you a tip that I learned when I was on the China station. You are pretty good drink ers , you Kentucky bojs. and you can hold your own with anybody east , west or north who tries to put you under the table. Hut unless you carry out my plan don't you ever etack yourselves up against an Englishman , and especially an army or navy officer.

It started In the old days when the British olllccrs always had the pleasure of mislaying their American guests or hosts whenever two ships met on foreign stations. Then that little yellow devil came along with h's ' trick and the ITiigllslimaii has never since come out better than second In any drinking bout. The secret ? Olive oil. One wlncglassful bcforo the fun beglnn , and If possible another later on , and you can keep your wit and legs throughout the dampcot evening. I suppose ono of two things happens. Either the oil coats the stomach and keeps the alcohol from being absorbed by the system or elao It floats on top and keeps the fumen from rising to the brain. Hut you'll have to ask the medlclno men about that. All I know Is Its practical result , and that has enabled us Yankee Doodles to go homo cheerful and clear-headed many an evening when our foreign cousins were speechless.

Packard writes In the Journal of the American Medical association that the first medical degree granted in New England was an honorary one. bestowed on Daniel Turner of Connecticut by Yale col lege in 3720.

"The crowning exccllpnce of Major Glnter'o character , " says the Ilaltlmore Sun , "that which gave It at onto Its strength and beauty , was the absolute supremacy of the moral sentiments. One of his oldest friends re marked the other day' that he never heard him utter a profarie or an unchaste wort. Another trnlt , whlch-nftne who knew.'him can ever forget , was an Inexorable sense'of duty , which allowed no concession to Indolence or st-lf-lndulgccce , no discrimination between onn class of duties and another , which knew no grades In obligations. It did not spend It self ; in occasional' acts -conspicuous heroism to duties -with which even , com mon nature may be inspired , but It was evidenced equally In an unvaried attention to the dry routine exactions of dally life. " Alexander Ramsay of St. Paul , now 82 years of age , who was appointed by President Zachary Taylor first governor of Minnesota , is still prominent in all great public move ments , and speaks with nearly as much energy anil forceas he did in his younger days. It is related of him that when he first vlilted the territory In Ills ofllclal capacity he refused to allow the military commandant there to fire a salute In his honor. "Very well , " said the commandant , "but let me call out the guard to receive you. " "Don't do It , " replied Ramsay ; "I don't want arjy fuss made about my being here. " "As you wish , governor , " said the ccm- inandant. "but I want to do something to show a proper respect to the chief executive of this territory. Is there anything that you would suggest or desire ?

There are four cities In Massachusetts which , under a recent law , are entitled to an appropriation of $23,000 each for the cotab- llshment of textile schools on condition of a like sum to bo raised by those interested. The tea from Dr. Shepard's farm , at Sum- inervllle , S. C. , sells for $1 per pound is of a high quality , and It Is believed that his success established the fact that tea can be grown In thin country so as to be commer cially successful. A JOYFUL HQTHEll OF CEELD11EN. Mrs. Pinkham Declares that In the Light of Mod ern Science no Woman Need Despair. There arc many curable causes for stcril- ity in women. One of the most common is general debility , accompanied by a peculiar condition of the blood. Care and tonic treatment of the fe- iale organs relieve more cases of sup posed incurable barrenness thttn any other known method. This is why i Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound - pound has effected so many cures ; its tonic properties are directed es pecially to the nerves which supply the uterine system. Among other causes for sterility or barrenness are displacements of the womb. These displacements ure caused by lack of strength in the ligaments supporting the womb and the ovaries ; restore - ' store these , and thu diilictilty ceases , ' Here , again , the Vegetable Compound works won ders. Sec Mrs , Lytle's letter , which follows . in this column. Go to the root of the matter , restore the strength of the nerves and the tone of the parts , and nature will do the rest. Nature has no better ally than this Compound , made of her own healing nnd restoring herbs. Write freely aufl fully to Mrs. Pinkham. Her address is Iiynn , Mass. She will tell you , free pf charge , the cause of your trouble and what course to take. Uelieve me , uuderoright conditions , you have a fair chance to become the joy ful mother of'children. The woman whose letter is here published certainly thinks so : , "I am more than proud of Lydia T3. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound , and cannot find wtmltxto express the good it has done me , J was troubled very badly with the' Iducorrhuiii and hevere womb pains. From the time J wa's married , in li | ' -iintil , , ' last year , I was under the doctor's caro. We had no children. I have b'ad nearly every doctor in Jersey City , and have been to Ilelvin Hospital , but allto no avail. I saw Mrs. Pinkham's advertisement 5n the paper , and havti ! ied five bottles of her medicine. It has done more for mo than all the do'C0'rs I ever had. It has stopped my pains and lias brought mo a. line little girl I have been well ever since my baby was born. I heartily recommend Mrs. Pinkham's medicine to till women suffering from sterility.
