A Big Family
TALK about big families! here's a
record that beats any thing in the
mountain and valley districts of our
own dear, prolific Centre :
The grandfather of a Canadian half:
breed Indian peddler in Rutland, Vt.,
named Macomber, died a few days ago
aged 103 years, at his reservation in
Canada, leaving considerable property.
He had been married three times, and
was the father of 36 children. By his
first wife he had six children, and
each of the others bore him 15,
His grandchildren, great-grandehil-
dren and great-great-grandechildren
number over 1000. Of the 36 children,
28 are living, as are most of the grand-
children, great-grandchildren and
great-great-grandchildren.

mont territory known as the Misais-

Senator Gorman has decided not to
be a delegate to the National conven-
tion and to give up his place upon the
Democratic National Committee, In
short, to give up for a time all partici-
pation in National polities. He says
his sole reason for this is thes ue may
during the next two years devote his
entire attention to getting Maryland
back into the Democratic party, where
she naturally belongs, and that after
he has succeeded in that task he may
resume active connection with the Na-
tional affairs of the party.

The Discovery Saved His Life.
Mr. G. Caillouette, Druggist, Bea-
versville Ill, says: “To Dr. King's
New Discovery I owe my life. Was
taken with La Grippe and tried all the
physicians for miles about, but of no
avail and was given up and told I
could not live. Having Dr. King's
New Discovery in my store I sent for
a bottle and began its use and from
the first dose began to get better, and
after using three bottles was up and
about again. It is worth its weight in
gold. We won't keep store or house
without it.” Get a free trial at J. D.
Murray's Drug Store.
Porirican affairs, as regards the
coming municipal election, are decid-
edly mixed in Philadelphia. The of-
ficizl ballot will have tickets on it la-
beled with such cognomens as “Re.
publican,” “Democratic,” “Municipal
League,” “Anti-Combine,” “Citizens,”
“Independent,” “People’s,” “Prohibi-
tian,” “Anti-Traction,” “City Rail-
road Purchase,” “Business Men's"
“Quay Reform.” Evidently there is
something wrong with Philadelphia
politics, with so many marks it must
have smallpox or chicken pox.
