FRIDAY, APK1I. 14, 1893.
The Legislature has agreed upon
May 11, as the day for final adjour
nient. A bill has passed the Senate finally
rendering women eligible to the office
01 notary moiic.
The publication of the mercantile
appraiser s list win soon be abolished,
The bill has passed the Senate finally.
Now is time for farmers to plant
trees. An Act of the Legislature pro
vides that for every four trees planted
alone the roadside the farmer shall be
allowed a rebate of one dollar on his
road tax. The rebate will be suffi
cient to pay the expense of the tree
planting, and the farmer will have the
entire profit arising from the growth
of the trees.
At Trenton, N. J. a novel plan is to
be used to settle the question of who
shall be named as postmaster. There
are two factions of democrats in the
city, and the Congressman being a re
publican the settlement of the contest
was given into the hands of Senator
McPnerson (dem.) The Senator was
thrown into a great quandary by this.
Although he is serving his third term
in the Senate he wants another, and is
anxious to make as few enemies as
possible to throw obstacles in his way.
So after thinking the matter over he
concluded to let the people decide it,
and said that he would submit the
question to the Democratic voters of
the city, and abide by their decision.
Judge Porter, of Pittsburg, has de
cided that free lunches, when furnished
in liquor saloons, are illegal, basing
his view upon the fact that numbers
of wives of mill workers have com
plained to him "that their husbands
did not come home regulirly to their
meals, and that one of the reasons
why they did not was because of the
attractions held out to them by saloon
keepers in the form of free lunches.
If thtse inducements keep husbands
from home, the inducement must be
abolished." If this be law what is to
become of the fn e lunch fiends, so
many of whom have been enjoying the
luxuries provided by saloon keepers ?
Their occupation will be gone. Ex.
A vessel has just arrived from Hani
burg, with nearly 500 immigrants. It
will be remembered that Hamburg
was the centre of the cholera plague
last summer. Prolessor Virchon, an
able authoritity on the subject of
cholera says that America may be able
to repel the germs of cholera this year,
but that it will return in Europe with
greater severity. The people over the
water fearing the disease are hastily
departing for this country, and we can
expect many cases during the summer,
although it may not this year reach a
very severe epidemic, the germs will be
sown for another season. It is nere.,-
ij sary that every precaution should be
' taken before the disease fastens it-
1 1 self upon us. Cleanliness is the great-
I I est harrier to its nrnirrM.

WASHINGTON LETTEB
Washington, April to, 1893.
President Cleveland has a remarka
ble capacity for standing long hours
of hard work, and it has been put to a
severe test since his inauguration, as
it has been the exception rather than
the rule when he has been able to re
tire before 2 o'clock in the morning,
and he is always at his desk again be
fore 8 o'clock. Feeling the need of a
little undisturbed rest, he, in company
with Secretary Gresham, left Washing
ton Saturday afternoon and they will
not return until to morrow. Ilia des
tination was not made public for fear
mat ne might be followed by some of
the importunate office seekers, anxious
to personally present their claims.
They went to see Ambassador Bayard
at his home in Wilmington, Delaware.
The investigation of the Weather
Bureau, now being publicly conducted
after office hours at the Department
of Agriculture, is a vcrv nastv mess as
far as it has gone, and it promises to
grow even nastier. The property of
me Dureau nas, according to the testi
mony, been stolen and sold to junk
dealers whenever certain of the minor
officials needed a little extra w'uiskey
money, and the stealing was done in
broad daylight, the employees of the
bureau being used to load it upon
wagons. About everything seems to
have been included in the thefts, up
on one occasion a stone step being
taken from the building itself. The
principal men implicated thus far are
the foreman of the press room and
the Captain of the watch, but others
higher up are said to have received a
portion of the money, and it is expect
ed that the avidence will nrnve it
Secretary Morton is determined to get

that every uuiltv man is nunishert. re
gardless of who he may be or who
may oe bis mends.
Major General Schofield and Major
General Miles have had a squabble at
long range over the trouble in Indian
Territory. The quarrel is understood
to have occurred over the can-vino- out
of an order for the detail of an army
omcer to investigate the trouble. No
United States troops will be sent there
unless the Secretary of the Interior re
quests it.
President Cleveland said he intend.
ed to get the very best man in the
country, wno was available, to be
Commissioner of Pensions, and the
general approbation of the nomination
01 juage vm. Lochren, of Minnesota
to the position indicates that he sue
ceeded. Judge Lochren was not an
applicant tor tne position, indeed, he
at first declined to accept it, but with
drew his objections when his nartv du
ty and loyalty were appealed to by the
rresiuent. 1 lis war record is of the
bravest, and although he is nnt .1
member of the G. A. R., no member
of that organization has so far as
known had a Aord to sav acainst his
special fitness for the position. He
was born in V ermont, but has resided
in Minnesota since 187. with the ex-
J
rtption of the time he served in the
army, ne win take charge ot the
Pension Bureau about May first.

Jfrs. Jtmry Speakmtm
Of Phlladalphla,

Borefulm for Seven Tears Cured
by Hood' Sartaparllla.
"A week devoted to writing would not be iuf
Solent to tell ol the good Hood's Sarsaparilla has
done me. Seven years ago a running sore ap
peared on my ankle, which grew worse until it
entirely covered my foot and the bones came out
ui my ions, men ine sores appeared on my
other foot, rlKht arm and hand. Holes were
eaten In my lower limbs, my linn was one great
sore from the shoulder dowu, and the bones
camo out of two of my fingers. Words
Cannot Tell My Sufferings.
I could not sleep and bad no appetite. About
three years alter the first appearance of the dis
ease my husband read of what Hood's Sarsapa
rilla had done for others, and urged me to try
It. I was confined to the bed ut Uie time, bad
given up all hope. However, I oommenced
taking the medicine, and beforo I had finished
the bottle, could sleep, and not only eat, but
enjoy my food. Mow thu
Sores are All Healed Up
with the exception of one spot on my limb. I
thank God for having directed my husband's at
tention to Hood's Hanaparllla, otherwise I
should hare been In my grave. I can now move
about with the aid of crutches, and will always
need their assistance, but anyone who bad seen
my ooudiUou when I commenced to take
Hood's Sarsaparilla
would marvel that I ara now alive to move at

tural department who were not rend
ering services in anything like a fair
proportion to the salaries they receive,
but a whole division of employes who
have been practically paid for doing
nothing for more than a year. This was
the quarantine division of the Bureau
of Animal Industry, which Secretary
Morton has just abolished. Quite a
howl has been raised by the republi
cans because tr.e chief ol the abolished
division happened to be the late Mr.
Blaine's brother, although it is difficult
to understand why that should have
made the slightest difference. Surely
tney did not expect that a democratic
administration would feel called unon
to take care of the poor members of
me waine lamiiy.
Secretary Lamont hasn't been doing
much talking he never doesbut
that he has been doing some investi
gating and thinking is shown by his
statement mat no more army officers
win be detailed for ornamental pur
poses. This may be a little rough on
the army officers who have been cal
culating to spend the summer at the
World's Fair and the various summer
resorts, but no one can deny that it is
just to the people who pay these men
their salaries, and doubly just to the
officers without "pull" who have to
perform, in addition to their own, the
duties ot the butterflies of the piofes
sion.
Postmaster General Bissell has de
cided that no fourth class postmasters
shall be removed, except for cause,
until iney snail have served all or
nearly all of a four year term. This
is a new rule, as these omciais Lave
never been considered to have a fixed
term, but were removable at the pleas
ure of the department. The change
is understood to have been made by
the direction of the President, and
after all it will make no difference in
the end, because there are so manv
who have served four veara or more
that by the time they are removed

Pennsylvania People Benefitted.
MRS. CARRIE BOUTON GAINED IN FLESH
68 LBS. TO III 1-3 LBS. BY THE
USE OF A SIMPLE REMEDV.
MEN AND WOMEN INTERESTED.
"It is astonishing," said one of our
physicians the other evening, "how
many of the ordinary diseases people
suffer from come from the one cause
excess of uric acid in the blood.
To discover a medicine that would
dissolve this acid has puzzled thous
ands of the best men of the medical
profession, until Dr. David Kennedy,
of Rondout, N. Y., produced what is
known the world over as Dr. Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy. The great value
we place in Favorite Remedy comes
from the fact that it is the only medi
cine that will effectually dissolve this
acid thus curing rheumatism, dyspep
sia, kidney, livei and urinary troubles
and the sicknesses women suffer from
These and many moie troubles a!l
come from the one cause, as I said
before, this death dealing uric acid."
Perhaps there has been no one per
son in Wyoming Co., Pa., that lias
suffered more than Mrs. Carrie Bott
ton, formerly of Schottville, but now
of Harvey's Lake, Luzerne Co. Mrs.
Bouton, in relating her restoration to
health, said : "From a growing girl
I suffered from female trouble or weak
ness peculiar to my sex. Several phy
sicians prescribed for me but I found
no relief. I was reduced in flesh down
to 68 pounds. By accident I heard
of Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
and determined to try it, and to my
great joy I began to realize that I had
found a medicine that was doing me
good. I think I had used five bottles
when I found that. I weighed iaij
pounds and was better in health than
I ever was before.
Inquiry among Mrs. Bouton's neigh
bors shows that she states nothing but
the facts in regard to her case. Many
other instances of the kind are widely
talked of in Scottsville, Tunkhannock,
Wilkesbarre and other places where
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy has
effected many cures after physicians
had given up hope.
"But," says one of our prominent
druggists, Favorite Remedy is equally
efficacious in other diseases, as talks
with people I have sold Favorite Re
medy to affirm. To my knowledge
right in our town Favorite Remedy
has cured people suffering from rheu
matism, dyspepsia, kidney, liver and
urinary troubles."
Since the publication in one of the
New York medical journals of the
case of Mr, E. P. Tayer, of East Nas
sau, N. Y., Dr. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy has been increasing in sale.
Mr. Tayer had suffered for fifteen
years with inflammatory rheumatism.
His case was practically abandoned
by his physicians. Favorite Remedy
was brought to his notice and in less
than three months after its use he was
a well man.
In commenting on this case Dr. V.
II. Morse, of New York City, says :
The great good in Favorite Remedy
lies in its power to dissolve this dead
ly uric acid. In cases of dyspepsia,
eczema, scrofula or any urinary di
seases I have never known it to fail,
when taken according to directions.
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is not
only used by physicians now but can
be found on sale by every medicine
dealer. WWcea-Jiarre (Ja.) Times.
