SIXTH FIELD BATTERY ENTERS

ing Swollen Streams,
Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 13. A spe
cial dispatch from Fort Sam Bcxrsoon,
Texas, sari:
, The Sixth Field Battery of the
United States Artillery, commanded
by Cantata Q. W. GeAcfcefj, entered
Pdrt Sain Houston yesrterdJS atasd the
cheers of the local garrison. The bat
tery broke the world's record for long
distance practice march of artttlory,
bavins covered the estimated 1.100
miles from Fort Riler, Kotv, to Fort
San Houston, In fiftyflve days'. The
battery was compelled to moke sev
eral detours in order to avoid bad
roads and unusually rough country.
This .made the distance which St actu
ally covered considerably longer than
the railway.
Longest Practice March.
It Is asserted by army men here
that it Is br far the longest practice
march ever made by attrDery tn time
of peace, and that no forced march
ra time of war, with the exception of
Nopoteon's retreat from Moscow,
compares with it In distance.
The artillerymen of the Sixth Bat
tery were a sorrry appearing set of
men when they arrived here. Their
clothing was In -tatters and covered
with mud and dirt. The men are hag
gard and lean. Many of them were
scarcely able to travel. The horses
resembled moving skeletons.
Lost One Man.
The battery encountered severe
rains In Indian Territory and north
Texas. They had a hard time ford
ing some stream, . . owing to thoir
swollen condition. A blizzard swept
down upon the battery last Monday
morning. Just after it left Austin. It
continual during nearly all of the re
mainder of the march to San Antonio,
about ninety miles. The men walked
nearly the-whole dlstonoe In order to
keep warm.
The battery lost one man, Private
Arthur Hall, during the march. He
died In the hospital at Austin from
malaria, due, according to the state
ment of physicians who attended
him, to the exposure and hardships
encountered on the march.

Berkeley, Jan. 13. George D. Pren

prove that the unfortunate man com

tice, Boyd, who was a victim of con
sumption, killed himself rather than
run the risk of imparting the dread
disease to the young wifo.
The dead man had made Prentice
a confidant to an extent sufficient to
make him believe that Boyd died un
der the circumstance stated.
A careful analysis of the contents
of the dead man's stomach by the
city chemist of Oakland, Dr. C. H.

nide of potassium, which was doubt

ending bis life. '

WHO SHE WAS
SKETCH OF THE LIFE
And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound
Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of f73" Caused
it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores.
This romarkiible woman, whose
maiden name was Kstea, was born in
Lynn, Mass., Fobruary 0th, 1810, com
ing from a good old Quaker family.
For some years she taught sohool, and
became known as a woman of an alert
and investigating1 mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaao Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
nrosnerltv and hanninesa, Thev had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days It
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remedies
calling in a physician only In specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex
perience many of them gained a won
dorful knowledge of tho ourativo prop
erties of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a -great interest
In the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides In tho harvest
fields and orohards vegetablo foods of
all kinds; so, If we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there aro remedies ex-
fressly designed to cure tho various
Us and weaknesses of the body, and
it was ner pioasure tosearon these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a raro combina
tion of the oholcest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for tho
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu
liar to tho female sex, and Lydia Iu, Piulc
ham's friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
uicm. ,
All this so far was done f reelv. with-
out money and without price, as a
laoor ot love.
' But in 1873 the finanolal crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for tho largo real estate interests
of tho Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fcarfnl depression, so when tho Centen
nial year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source

argued that the medicine which waa
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for tha
women of the whole world.
Tho Plnkhoms had no monev. and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were steeped on the stove,
gradually filling a gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
It away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off soma pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi

Vegetable Compound, and these wero
distributed by the Pinkham sons in

The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a exeat extent.

recommended it to others, and the de
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
ily had saved enough money to com
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time tne growth and success of
the enterprise were assured, until to
day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege
table Compound have become house
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu
ally in its manufacture.
Lydla E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work, She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till Bhe had provided
moans for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre
serve a record of every case that came to
her attention. Tho case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands received
careful study, and the dotails, includ
ing Bymptoins, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made slnco, are
available to Bick women the world '
over, and represent a vast collabora
tion of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the 1
world, '
With Lydla E. Pinkham worked her
daughter-in-law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She wasoarofully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the

five years Bhe haB continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped . her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now tho mother of a largo family, took '
It up. With women assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work, and
