mines and Johannesburg, Kimberly,
Cape Town and many other places are
represented in the collection, together
with natives and their kraals.—Drift
wood Gazette Mr. Gleason will be
pleased to exhibit his collection to his

Cuba After a Year of Peace.
The Cuban Industrial Relief Fund,
of 75 Tribune Building, New York
City, has issued for frae distribution
an illustrated booklet entitled "Cuba a
Year After Peace." The illustrations
are direct reproductions of photographs
taken by William Howard, General
Manager of the Fund, during the
months of August and September, 1839.
They show that there is still in Cuba a
vast amount of sickness, suffering and
starvation. Not one of Mr. Howard's
pictures was taken in a hospital. All
represent the condition of the Cuban
poor as they are after the island has
been at peace for more than a year; as
they are after the American flag has
floated over them for ten months.
The survivors of the reconcentrados
still live in the wretched huts into
which they were crowded at the time
of the infamous Weyler concentration
order. Utterly without work-oxen,
farming tools, or seeds, with which to
resume the cultivation of their devas
tated farms, they have remained in the
towns and cities without means of sup
port and without hope for the future.
Our own Government has done
nothing to restore these impoverished
Cuban farmers to their former homes.
It has not provided so much as one
farmer with oxen or tools or seeds.
The Cuban Industrial Relief Fund
has in successful operation at Ceiba
Mocha, twelve miles west of Matanzas,
two relief farms, on which employment
is given to the poor. Nearly 800 per
sons are supported by the work done
on these two farms. The managers of
the Fund earnestly desire to extend
the good work to other parts of Cuba.
Contributions of money to enable
them to do so should be sent to the
Continental Trust Company, 30 Broad
street, New York City.
Card of Thanks.
We wish to express, in this public
manner, our heartfelt thanks to the
many friends for the respect shown to
our departed son and brother, JAMES
CAVANAUGH, but more especially to the
Emporium Fire Department, Ancient
Order of Hibernians, and Messrs. C. B.
Howard & Co.

Robbed <he Grave.
A .startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the I
subject, is narrated by him as fellows: "I j
was in a most dreadful condition. My j
skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually in back j
and sides, no appetite—gradually grow- |
ing weaker day by day. Three physi- j
eians had; given me up. Fortunately, a j
friend advised trying 'Electric Hitters,'
and to my great joy and surprise, the first 1
bottle made a decided improvement. I j
continued their use for three weeks, and I
am now a well man. I know they saved j
my life, and robbed the grave of another i
victim." No one should fail to try them. :
Only fiOets., guaranteed, at L. Taggart's

Cooler weather the last week.
Rev. Readett's child, Ruth, is quite
sick at this writing.
The greatly welcomed rain struck this
county last Saturday and stopped the
fires.
John P. Lewis thinks a daughter is all
right to keep house, but is not "Sis"' just
the same.
How is Mr. Swope? Why he's all
right and will soon be presiding over the
jail as Sheriff.
Frank J. Lewis, the middle ward con
tractor and builder, is this week reparing
E. W. Taylor's house and building a
new porch.
A. C. Goodwin and wife, and son
Mark, were cailed to Westfield on ac
count of the sudden death of their son,
who lived at that place.
Our warning against fire in the woods
was not heeded. In some places the
fire done much damage. Many logs at
T. J. Dixon's camp, owned by C. 15.
Howard & Company, were burned last j
Friday.
We noticed in an Elk county paper j
an advertisement for five hundred men i
to work in the woods. This is surely !
enough to teach the people how to vote
on Nov. 7th. Yes the Republican ticket 1
is good enough for us.

Pain halm, with good results, for a lame 1
shoulder that has pained her continually |

A Thousand Tongues.
Could not express the rapture of
Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard st.
Philadelphia, Pa., when she found that,
Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump

iug cough that for many yaars had made
life a burden. All other remedies and
doctors could give her no help, but she
says of this Royal Cure—"it soon re
moved the pain in my chest and 1 can
now sleep soundly, something I can
scarcely remember doing before. I feel
like sounding its praises throughout the
Universe." So will every one who tries
Dr. King's New Discovery for any trouble

of Chamberlain's Cough I'emedy, to
know that people everywhere take pleas
ure in relating their experience in the
use of' that splendid medicine and in
telling of the benefit they have received
from it, of bad colds it has cured, of
threatened attacks of pneumonia it has
averted and of the children it iias saved
