IT HAD NO BELL ON IT.
This Explains Why Congressman Tars-
ney's Frlond Did tho MiNsourinn.
From the Chicago Herald.
Congressman John C. Tarsncy, of
Missouri, Is now on the bosom of the
broad JUlantio. Before sailing he reg
istered kick against shooting galler
ies in Washington, where momentum
may carry it into the next congress.
"Walking along Pennsylvania avenue
on rainy day last week with a friend,
he passed a shooting gallery. Just then
there was a midden downpour of rain
and they went in out of the wet. "Are
you much of a shot?" said the congress
; man to his friend. "A better one than
you," was the:reply, and they went at
ft without asking the .price. In ten
minutes Tarsney had the white tar
get looking like a badly punched meal
ticket. AH this time his friends was
Shooting too.
' It had been agreed that the first bell
Should decide the contest. After fifteen
minutes the other man rang the bell.
"Well, I've lost," said Tarsney. How
much is It?" The proprietor began an
elaborate example In mathematics and
presently Bald: "We'll call It $3,40."
After he recovered from the ' shock
Tarsney said: "How much will It be
If I take just one shot at you?" Telling
the story afterward Mr. Tarsney said:
"If my friend hadn't rung the bell just
when he did should have had to give
tip my trip to Europe. My target didn't
have any bell in it."

IXDISTRIAL TOPICS.
The coal tonnage of the Reading last
month, according to the company's
statements, Indicates a total of 1,062,471
tons, an Increase compared with May,
1894. of 181,542 tons. It is known that
the company's percentage of the total
coal produced last month Is nearer 22
than 21 per' cent.
The Lehigh Valley Coal company has
decided to pay its miners for the last
half of May and the first half of June,
In the Schuylkill region, a rate of wages
which will bo but 10 per cent, below the
$2.50 basis,' notwithstanding the fact
that the committee from the Schuylkill
Coal exchange -have determined the
rate at 15 per cent, below. Like the
Philadelphia and Heading Coal and
Iron company, they refused the addi
tional 6 per cent., leaving the rate the
same as It was last month.
It seems almost Impossible, Bays the
Philadelphia Press, to get all the coal
carrying companies to enme to unani
mous agreement. At tho last anthra
cite coal sales agents' meeting the vari
ous companies outside of Reading were
willing to make the output for June 10
per cent, less than It was In May, but
nothing was done. Later the Reading
company signified Its willingness to
agree to a 10 per cent, reduction and
now the. Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western refuses to assent. It taking the
stand that there was no need for the
additional restriction and even If there
were, It could not be enforced.
Philadelphia Press: The Reading
company, as a corporation, wfcs never
In a worse situation than It Is today.
It has an honest management, but the
company Is not earning. any returns on
$150,000,000 worth of securities. The por
tent of this statement. Is not likely to
be fully conceived at once. Think of It!
What can be done under such circum
stances? It is evident that something
must be done. The company is now in
the third year of Its third receivership.
Some $20,000,000 to $25,000,000 are needed
to relieve It, and pending that relief
obligation Is piling up. to the detriment
not only of the Junior securities, but to
the holders of those oblivions 'Which
have something left back of them. For
a year it has been evident that the
general mortgage could not be saved
Intact, and during that period it has
also been apparent that some strong
power was preparing to make an effort
to save as much of the wreck as possi
ble. Former reorganizations have been
farces. The next one is likely to be a
tragedy,

There is no organ In the female body
that has received the same amount of
medical attention as the womb and Us
appendages, and there Is no organ in
the body that has been so tortured
and abused. When a lady consults the
av&rage physician she Is told her dif
ficulties arise from womb troubles, that
there is a displacement, an Inflamma
tion, an enlargement, or an ulceration
that Is at the bottom of all her bad
feelings, and he begins to operate as
follows: If there are any lacerations
they must be operated on, or If the
neck is a little out of line there must
be an incision made in It. After the
organ Is In Its proper position a pessary
must be inserted to hold It In Its proper
position. This Instrument of torture
Is worn until the poor victim cun en
dure It no longer, and she goes through
a course of cauterization until her
health Is nearly ruined. The cauteri
zation Is usually followed by cotton
tampons, which are removed as often
as once in twenty-four hours in order
that two or three gallons of hot water
may be used to allay congestion and
.Inflammation, and a patient will go
through this abominable sort of treat
ment until she becomes a confirmed
Invalid, as cauterization of the womb
causes induration with enlargement of
the womb, while the excessive use of
hot . water will cause a thickening of
the mucous membrane that comes in
contact with It. It Is all right to use
hot water but too much is worse than
none at all. If the average doctor
would stop the abominable act of cau
terization, and give nature a chance,
there would not be one sick woman
where there are ten today. Ladles, If
you are sick stop this kind of torture
and If you or any of your friends are
suffering from any form of tumor,
superfluous hair or birth marks, go to
Dr. Smith and Staff, at 312 Wyoming
avenue, and be cured without the knife,
pain or detention from business.
Consult Dr. F. B. Smith nt S12 Wyo
ming avenue. Ofllce hours, 9 a. m. to
9 p. m. dally. Consultations free.
