CANCER CURED.
No diseases have so thoroughly battled
the skill of tbe medical profession as
cancerous affections and as they have al
ways been considered incurable, It has
been thought disreputable to adopt their
treatment as a specialty ; and hence physi
cians have neglected their proper study.
But of late years new and important dis
coveries have brought forth a course that
now proves successlul in any of ita forms,
with certainty, without the use of the
knife or caustic plasters. We have a
treatment that fa comparatively mild. It
is not poisonous, docs not interfere with
the healthy flesh, can be applied to any
part of the body, even the tongue. We
take nothing for cur servlcos until the
ninier is cured. Address

ARRIVAL or TUB REMAINS or LT. OILOXU
AND COBK ADRM.
New York, February 20. The steam
ship Friniu, from Hamburg, with (he
borlie* of Lieut. Belong and comrades
on hoard, arrived af the dock Lit in after
noon. There Were no deputized delega
tion* to receive (he bodie*, hut there
was a considerable number of relations
and friend* of the deceased oir tho
dock o( the steamship company. Tho
remain* were in ateelhound package*
on the dock on cither side of the sa
loon k>lights- All the bodie* are not
in a Htalo of preservation, ami will not
he exposed to public view. Lieutenant
Ward, of tho Uuite I State* S tvy, repre
•enting Cooirnondoro I'pshen, met tho
Fri*ia at quarantine and came on it to
the dock at Ifohoken and transferred
the case containing the taidie* to un
dertukers, who will remove the bodies
to the pier and gu ird them until
Friday morning, wlin they will he
taken to the pier 1 of North liver and
put into ten hearseaand • mi ted to the

and hoyd, seaman, to Virginia. The
bodies of lie Long and six m< n will I>P
taken to tbeC'burch of tho Holy Trinity,
Forty second street and M idinon avenue
'where religious services will tie held.
Lieutenant William Scbuetx, who,
with Lieulensrit ILirber, left New York
I February 11, l£S2, to find the Jeanette*
dead, gave an interesting account of
: his seirch for the bodie*. He told of
hi* efforts about I*ena river, bow ho
' and hi* comrades built a schooner fifty
j one feet long by nine feet beam, cal
led the "Search" and how the officers
and men took their four hours watch at
pulling the vessel like canal host mule*
on a stony shoro that wore out t'neir
boot*. Lieutenant SchurU related how
they travelled by dog and reindeer
tied* some 3,ott mile*: sometimes, he
•aid, the dog sleds could iu*ke over 100
mile* a day. The reindeer* had to he
driven compartively moderately. The
Lieutenant and his comrades, after they
found the bodie* within ten miles of
the mouth of the river Lena, drove
night and day, slopping for nothing
except to eat until they reached Irkutsk-
At that place the people welcomed
them.

Romance From the Dust.
Representative C*ady, of Nevada,'
recite* the following interesting romance
which was dug out of the du*!y files of
j the Pension office : A short time ago
Mr. C(isady received a communication
from Kli Johnson, of l.uning, Funeral-is
I county, Nevada, making application for
ajension and arrearages. The letter;
1 stated that he was a private in Company
|C, First California Cavalry. Upon in j
' quiry at the Pension office Kli Johnson
wa# reported dead, *nd his widow until t
recently ha* drawn his pension. Further
inquiry showed that Mrs. Johnson,
believing her huuband dead, had mar
ried again and wa* living in Flonna.
Henry county, Ohio, m Mrs. (Jill. A
careful investigation wa* tuade, which
proved that Kit Johnson waa wounded
during the war, sent to the hospital and
afterward* reported dead. His wife
came Kaat, thinking herself a widow,
made application nnd was granted a
pension, which she continued to draw
until she married Mr. (Jill. Jn the
meantime her first husband, believing
bis wife dead, wont to Kurop® and re
mained several years. Returning tc
America, be discovered that be was en
titled to a pension and immediately
made application for it through Mr,
Cassady. F.vents havo shown that the
marriage of Mr. (Jill was illegal, and the
prospects are that Mr. and Mrs. Kb
Johnson will be returned after being
separated orcr fifteen yc&r*.
Land Grant Legislation
The policy declared by the iL-mo
Aratic House of Representative, in its
recent largo vote of the Holman re.
solution.and since shown inaction by
declaring grants to tho amount of
many million >f acres forfeited, looks
to the restoration to the public domain
of a largo b<ly of lands now claimed by
rnilrond* and other corporation, and to
the restriction hereafter of the power of
acquiring agricultural lands to actual
settlers under tho homestead laws. A*
the urea of farming land to be bought
back into the possession of the Govern
| mcnt is about 100,000,000 acres, it will
,be seen that the Holman resolution,
j as the precursor of long-needed legi*.
li'ion on this subject,is one of the most
i important considered by Congress in
1 many year*.
According to data before the House
Coiiimi tee on Public Lands, tbeutnount
of land granted to fifteen corporation*
foot* up in round number* 121,000,00
acre*, of which o:.iy 21.000,000 hav<-
, been earned by compiling with the
j conditions of the grants, leaving lot,-
000,000 acres forfeitable—an area a
large a* the States of New York, P- tin
sylvania, New Jersey, He!aw ire, Marv.
Imd and Y.rginia with their thirti n
millions of population.
It is possible that -otne of the cor
porations have an equitable claim fur a
portion of their land grant* liable to
forfeiture, by reason that they have
' completed their road* in good faith,
j The Northern Pacific seem* to be one
|of these exceptions. It has earned
! 10.000,000 acres, but has 37,000,000 for
| feitablc under tho conditions of it*
I grant.
t'f scarcely less importance than the
proposed action of tho House in r
gard to the forfeiture of unearned
iiiud* ir, ihe bill introduced by Mr. K1
mund* in the Sena'e. to secure to the
United State* the indebtedness of tho
*ub*idi/e.| Pacific Railroad*. These
road* owed the Government on June
30, I*3, 1102.37f1.312, for which large
■ mount it has no fixed obligation*, but
only a genTal lien created by the term
of their charters. Payment l.a* *o f*r
been made by a running 1-ook account.
The Tburman act require* the applica
tion nf'J'i jx-r cent, of the net earning"
! of the roads to tho payment, at the
' maturity of the bond* given by the
I'nited sState* to eight of the railroal*.
will leave the rosd still indebted to the
Government in the sum of about f7">,
000,OQ0; and this, too after the deduc
tion ol the soma to their credit in the
• inking fund and on account of trans
|x>rtation services. Should, the com
panies default in the pavmcnt of inter
I
esL or principal at (In- maturity of their
bonded indebtedness, the United
States, to save its interest . would have
to beor.m a purchaser of the rod*. It
i* the purpose, therefore of the Kd
mund* hit! "to charge the in-'. hod o:
book account payment into bond* of
fixed obligation f.->r definite amounts,
payable at fixed periods."
It i considered questionable whether

Chief fJuatico Waite'a Dllcmmn.
BRIM. a mint T MOM T IT* TINDS IT IT ARUTO
CRT nts cnaca CASHED.
• hicf Justice Wane, of the supreme
court, liad a funny experience theotlier
( day, and a* be has related it to any
i numl>er of friend*, the story has had
a wide circulation in society. Several
week* ago he had an im)>erative en
gagementin Baltimore. Like all great
men he is proverbially abaeut minded.
He went up to the court and a few
moments session adjourned the couit
and came down icitutely to the Haiti
, more and Ohio depot, which is only a
short distance from the capitol. As be
, got out of the atreet car he fouud he
had ten minute* in which to purchase
a ticket and got a seat cn fbe train
A* he went up to the ticket office he
discovered, to his surprise, that he hsd
only a few pennies in his pocket. He
had neglected to provide himself with
"scrip for his journey." He looked
around the wailing room but saw no
; one heknew. What was to l>e done I
1 must be done quickiy ; his engagement
was an important one. Ho be filed up
in the fine to the ticket office, and
when he reached the window the chief
justice smiled an awful smile across the
full width of his ample mouth and
asked the ticket agent ifbe new him.
"No, I don't" snarled the agent, ' and !
what is more I don't want to ? What
do you want f"
"1 want a ticket to Baltimore and re i
turn. I am the chief justice of the
supreme court ana. 1 have no money
with me it is purely aooidental. ! can
give you my personal check,''
"Ob, I know you. I know all the
bloods, but that dodge won't work on
me. 1 have just had two members of!
the cabinet try to 'bilk' me out of the
tickets and co cLiaf jtuUoe dodge get* ;
me. Take your ug'y mug out of the
window and get out of the way of
people who have money.
1 The chief justice glared. He could
not fine the young man for contempt of
court. He felt cheaper and worse than
ifbe bad been a roal fraud, lie blushed
' and perspired so that the agent had
' hi* firm belief strengthened. The
chief justice dashed out of the station
' jto see tf he could not find some one to
, indentify him. He bad only fire
minutes left. It w. too shoet a time
to run to the capitol. He saw no one.
Across the slr-<-t ih--r- wa* a saloon and
•-ating house. Ibe cuief justice made a
rush across th- roi I, but he stopped at
the door. \\ hat if ho should he seen
going into a common gin mill? What
would people say, and i- was a hare
1 chsnce if any one in tbee should know
him 7 Spying a pnvate entrance he
rushed in arid acc>*.<d the pioprietor
with the frantic mqu ry of "J>o you
know rue?"
"1 <■*, bet ycr h-4(i, I do, <r Honor."
said the shoit haired, treokli-d fee rutin
behind tho bar. "Yean* tin- * a
the shuprame coort. 1 > sy.j ivi / d*y
going by here on the cat-.*'
"Will you cash my check ? I iivi- no
lime to explain." Hero the ,i* i
grabbed apiece of paper u,- i. i . .
nearby and began to write.' .. ~
"Sbure I will. I've seen oul l h. . .!
on a t-ir before get out u n. •■ >
TruiLt me, soar. It is a twenty j want
iII ro it it. Will yc have a drop bt - i,
• | ye run J"
But before any further explanation
could be made the chief justice bad
grabbed the money and ran aero#* the
street. In some way the ticket agent
had h-arned of hi.* blunder during the
judge's absence, and waa all |K>liteness
when he saw the money. Mr. Waito
'barely made the train, but he has not
li .d tucb a shock to hi* dignity .
s ncc he went uj-on the bench of the
supreme tourl,
A Bad Place for Chinamen
Strange to-ay there has been a Chi
nsman in I,radarille for some time,
nd nobody ha* objecte'l to his presense. ,
He lias expressed the intention of e.
l abli*h ng a novelty store, which w.ll
doubt!® have for an adjunct the open
•ng of an opium den. For the purpose
of purrliaing the nece*ary equipmen
and ware* he will depart for S.,n Fran

ever, that his entire outfit will be con
fi*cted when be return*, t'hinsmcn
have never been tolerated here and bis
ecpe fr<itn formal notice to quit the
country can be explained by Ihp fact
that only a few confirmed opium fiends
knew he was intliecity.
There i a grim tradition connected
w th the early hitorv of the camp,
which tell* of the mi in..hi murder of a
t 'eleatial. who refused to leave when in

engendered in l>7 v , when Steven* A

several millions.
THE newspaper# are making great
fun of Victoria's anxiety, tu told in
her book, concerning John Hrown's
legs. It certainly is an odd subject to
so greatly exercise the mind of an
empress, and then, so many ladies arc
shocked to think tlißt she didn't speak
of them as limbs.
