WASHINGTON NOTES. Thursday afternoon of last week the Senate voted in favor of the Panama canal route-67 to 6 -and voted ten mil lions to complete negotiations and begin work, if a good title can be secured to the old canal. The canal is lo be built for $130,000,000, to be raised by two per cent, gold bonds. On Monday the Senate refused to con sider the motion made by Senator Quay to take up the bill admitting New Mex ico, Arizona and Oklahoma as states. Senator Quay got no opportunity in the Senate Tuesday to press his motion to take tbe bill to admit Oklahoma. Arizona and New Mexico as States away from the Committee on Territo ries. He said he had been unable to get his motion under consideration on ac count of the "obstr active tactics" em ployed against it. He. therefore, would let it go over until next day. ne gave notice that after that evening he would object to any further business being transacted by unanimous consent until his motion was disposed of, and that he would call up his motion next day. POLITICAL. At Erie, yesterday, tbe Democratic- State Convention nominated Robert E. Pattison for Governor; G<K>rge W. Guthrie of Allegheny county for Lieutenant Governor, and James Nolan c f Berks county for Secretary of Internal Affaire. Philadelphia county was allowed but 29 delegates. The Democrats polled 3,880 votes for Judge, which with the 7,374 cast for the Republican candidates for same office makes 11.200 votes cast for candidates for that office. Grover Cleveland was the central figure at the Democratic Unity gather ing in New York last Thursday; and his speech waa an appeal to Democrats to discard the issues on which they had been defeated. Bryan is coining East to make a Fourth of July speech at Boston, to ral ly his scattered legions in behalf of free silver and populism. He hoots at Hill and Cleveland and will answer them in ringing terma. "One of the political events of last week was the denunciation by the Cheater County Republican Convention of one of the Cheater delegates who, after pledging himself to Elkin both in writing and verbally, and having been instructed hy resolution, gave his proxy to an opponent. That man will be held up to acorn for all time, as will, indeed, all delegates who disregarded their in structions, no matter what those in fractions were. The Chester conven tion declared for Senator Snyder for United States Senator."—Ex. Corrupt methods could not be resort ed to with success at a State Convention if weak and unprincipled men were not elected delegates. A man should be glad of the opportunity to resist the temptation to be bribed, jnst to show himself that he is not really at heart a rascal. Men of approved integrity should always be placed In positions of trust. There are a great many semi respected citizens who are not murderers and thieves simply because they object to being hanged or sent to prison.— Punx'y Spirit. "The endorsement of Senator W. P. Snyder, President Pro Tem. of the Senate of Pennsylvania, by the Chester county convention for election to the United States Senate, gives the friends of Senator Penrose much concern. They believe now what they pooh-poohed at the time of the State convention, name ly, tbat the Elkin people intend fighting the Senator for re-election. The endorse ment of Senator Snyder, it is conceded, will be followed by similar action in every convention controlled by the Elkin people. Each county will endorse a favorite son. They will follow the fashion set by Senator Quay when he had favorite sons brought out in many of the counties to preyent endorsement of Elkin."—Says a dipatch from Wash ington. Guilty of 31 MurderH. Jane Toppan, murderess and degener ate, committed to Tannton Insane hospital Boston, Monday as the outcome of a trial, wherein she was found not guilty of murder by reason of insanity in poisoning Mrs. Mary D. Gribbs. of Catumet, has killed at least 80 other persons, according to her own confes sion. A nurse by profession, enjoying the confidence of an unlimited acquaint anceship, of seeming livable disposition, skilled in the uses of medicines, especial ly of narcotics, she was at heart a maniac, whose delight was to see her patients writhing in death's agony. And her work did not stop there t< >r, having baffled medical skill so that the attending physician would assign a natural cause of death, she would seem to recover her normal mental poise and sorrow with the living for the loss of a loved one. Jane Toppan's crimes were revolting beyond all description, but the details perhaps will never be known, for tbe lips of her connsel are sealed. Her con fession was not made as a story of wholesale murder, but has been drawn out little by little when hor counsel has talked with her in Barnstable jail. Fairvlew Facta. Mrs. Wammock moved from the Kilchner house to that of Mrs Martha McCoy, and John Carpenter expects to move into the house vacated by Mrs. Wammock. John Hawk is on the sick list. Misses Margaret Campbell and Carrie McClure took in the Pipe Line picnic nt Connenut, Tuesday. E. W. Byers and Miss May Wilson went to Grove City to attend the coin mancement A. F. Osmun and D. W. McClure sold 13 Singer sewing machines in tbe last 30 days. Rev. J. A. C. McQuistion is at Har risville assisting at communion in the Harmony -church. Jos. Clark is the first man to rig up his mowing maching and put it in nse, this season. Miss B. Pearl Adams returned from Butler, yesterday, where she had been for a few days Chas. McClure is on the sick list. The Referendum Wins in Oregon To many who are interested in the progress of democratic ideas the most significant result of the recent election in Oregon is not the success of the per sonally popular Democratic candidate for Governor, while at the same time the Republican Congressmen won by increased majorities, but the adoption by the people ot a constitutional amend ment putting into effect iu H practical form the principle of the Initiative and Referendum. Upon petition of five per cent, of the legal voters any act passed by the legislature mast be submitted to a pop ular vote. Upon petition of eight per cent, of the voters any measure, even if voted down by the legislature, must be so submitted. Many advocates of the Referendum believe that in practice few measures will be brought to the actual test of a popular vote, holding that the main effect will be to deter the legislature from passing laws likely to meet the disapproval of the people It is claimed also that when th 6 people have the right to demand submission of any measure to a popular vote, the motives for bribery will be largely eliminated. The idea seems to be fin ing in favor as the years go on. —Ex. WHILE the Chinese cruiser Kai-Cbi was lying in the Yang-Tse river, last Sunday, she exploded and sank im mediately all the crew, excepting two, being killed or drowned. Postponement of the Coronation. With the empire en fete,with myriads of flags flying as in gaudy mockery from end to end of the city, and on the very eve of his coronation, King Edward VII has with dramatic suddenness been stricken down Tuesday night. li> Buck ingham Palace, where he was born, he lies near to death. The royal families have been summoned The chief physicians of the empire are at hand, noting minute by minute the condition of the royal patient. All the preparations for the corona tion festivities are at an end. The army of carpenters engaged on the huge structures along the line of march stopped their work. The holiday crowds along the streets melted away, and in the clubs and public resorts there was no topic of con versation except the King's nght with death. The news fell upon London with the force and suddenness of a lightning stroke. Nothing in the history of th-s empire ever equaled the dramatic force of it. Monday everybody with a flag flung it out from a window or doorway. Tuesday everybody was praying tbat the life of the King may be spared. There was no further talk of festivi ties. All programmes were abandoned. The Democratic Primary. The Democratic primaries were held last Saturday afternoon and the County Committee met in Butler, Monday. John R. Henninger was elected County Chairman and Ed.

As "his honor" sat on the bench from which even bunded justice vr:is dis pensed in the town of Lavilla, which flourished way down in Florida before the days of Greater Jacksonville, h<- was amazed to note anions the prison ers at the bar a "paleface." Casting the eagle eye of the law over the room, he was agitated still more to observe a "biled" shirt and standing collar and that these were worn by an other white man. The marshal, being called on, explain ed that one white gentleman was ar rested by him for running a "flying jinny" without a license, and the other was his lawyer. To a man cast in a heroic mold than the mayor such complete smashing of all records and invading of precedent would have been a Waterloo. A white man arre&ted in Lavilla and a lawyer appearing to plead in its court! To what are we coming? Repressing all signs of such a strain 011 his judicial composure, the mayor announced that to fittingly mark so great an occasion he would disregard the calendar and take up the white man's case first. The lawyer demanded the immediate discharge of the prisoner on the ground that there was no ordinance requiring "flying jinny" to pay a license and threw the court on its "beam ends" by asking for a copy of the ordinance book. No one had seen it in years. Many doubted if there had ever been one. A whispered consultation was held be tween the mayor and the marshal and a se.ll Mi instituted which revealed the book, with a brick on top of it, supply ing the place of a missing leg of tbe stove. After looking vainly through the book for law on "flying jinnies" his h ,:ior delivered judgment as follows: "Ordinance No. 11 requires all keep ers of livery stables to pay a license of $lO and imposes a fine of twice the amount for running without a license. The defendant must pay both the fine and the license." "But." objected the lawyer, "this mnn don't run a livery stable; he runs a 'flying jinny.' " "lie keeps horses for hire, doesn't he?" "Yes, but they are wooden horses, and he charges a nickel for one ride." "The ordinance makes 110 fine distinc tion. It says livery stables require a license. A livery stable Is a place where horses are kept for hire. It makes no difference whether they are wooden horses or 'meat' horses. Next case, Mr. Marshal."—New York Mail and Ex press. Stone Throwing. A propensity to throw stones regard less of consequences has been one of the earliest signs of natural depravity among luen since time began and, we fear, must continue that way until the millennium ushers in the era when bad boys are 110 more and stones are con fined to their proper and legitimate uses. Anyway, the mischief wrought by this vicious and execrable habit looms up into serious proportions when the figures are given out by plate glass in surance men showing that it costs not less than $250,000 a year to make good tiii' losses thus caused by reckless boys in this country alone. With stoii:' throwing costing S2SO,(H)D a year, carelessness in setting fires cost ing hundreds of millions more and heedless accidents causing immense sacrifice of property, the good people have many bills to foot which ought not to be theirs.—Leslie's Weekly. The Coffee Heart. The largest part of the coffee grown In the world is consumed in the United States, and some of our life Insurance societies are beginning to realize how Its excessive use ir.i .eases the risks of life. Its effect is in shortening the long beat of the heart, and medical e.\- aiulnors for insurance companies have added the term "coffee heart" to. tc.eir regular classification of the functional derangements of that organ. These physicians advise that the use of cof fee be limited to not more than two ■cups a day. Coffee topers, they say, are plentiful and are as much tied to their cups as the whisky toper. The effect of : iie coffee upon the heart is more lasting and consequently worse than that of liquor.—Detroit Free Press. Advance Prayer*. A Gerinaxitown mother in put ting her five-year-old son to bed no tied that he clambered under the cov en: without saying his prayers. She grew reproachful. "Why, Warren, mollier never knew you to forget your prayers before." "Indeed, mother," was the reply, "1 didn't forget.

In the fights they indulged in it was give and take, and as a rule the best man won. But there was one foe who ever haunted the damp aad draughty castles of the Knights, one ot whom they stood in aWect fear, and that foe was rheumatism. Rheumatism in the shoulder and no more swinging of the sword. Rheumatism in the legs and no more striding of the war charger. Un happy were the servants of the Knight who was kept at home by stiffened limb* and aching bones when great thing* were toward. Every friend became hi* enemy as he looked at the good sword on the wall and vainly tried to raise the impotent arm. Word# it hat been said are foesil his tory. The Roman naturalists christened the* leopard leofiardus because they sup posed the spotted creature was the joint offspring of lion and tiger. So the name leopard, embalms ancient ignorance and i preserves it like a fly in amber. It is the same with the word rheuma tism. Its name implies that it was sup posed to be a sort of rheum, a catarrhal affection, such as results from a cold. And while the treatment for rheumatism was based on that theory it was small wonder that cures were infrequent. To day we locate the cause of rheumatism in the blood and we drive it out scien tifically by the use of Doctor Pierc*'a Golden Medical Discovery. THE MODERN TREATMENT. « Quite a number of years ago, v hen I was a girl at home, my father was pros trated upon a bed of sickness," wntes Mrs P. M. Wheeler, of No. 2 Ann Place, Bradford, Penna. "He had rheumatism and a complication of troubles which baffled the skill of three of our best physicians. All through the winter months he lay upon his bed, suffering severely at times with rheumatism in his limbs. While in this condition a pam phlet containing a description of Dr. Pierce'* remedies fell Into his hand*. I remember of hia sitting up in bed and reading it through and then exclaiming, •That medicine is just what I need!' Just then a neighbor came along who was going to town and we sent for a bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. We laid aside the doctor's medicines and commenced giving my father the ' Golden Medical Discovery,' according to directions. The first three days he felt worse, as is often the case. After that he commenced to gain. His ghysician was surprised at the change in is condition and candidly admitted that the 'Golden Medical Discovery' was doing more for him than he had been able to do.

He continued taking the medicine and in c short time was well, and ever afterward was loud in his praises of Dr. Pierce'i Golden Medical Discovery as he told of the wonderful cure it performed in his case." When the cause of rheumatism ii located in the blood it is at once evident that the one thing to do is to purge the blood of the acids and poisons which breed and feed the disease. In all com mon forms of blood disease, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery mar be used with absolute confidence in the result It cures scrofula, salt-rheum, tetter, eczema, pimples, boils, ulcers, sores and eruptions of all kinds which are caused by the corrupt condition of the blood. It is the BXST BESOM FOR THE BLOOD because it absolutely drives out and eliminates the poisons which cause disease. "In the fall of 1893 my ankle began to pain me," writes Mrs. C. t. fcriggs, of Tunnel City, Monroe Co., Wis. "Not a steady pain, but it grew worse fast and soon became a * running sore. It made me very lame. When I sat down had to rest it on a stool, as I could not endure the pain when it was on the floor. The doctor gave me something to heal it, but it would break out worse than ever in a short time. That was the way I suffered for five years. I was so nerv ous hardly knew what I was doing sometimes. Got so I could not do the work for myself and husband. In the fall of 1898 I commenced to take ' Doctor Pierce's Golden I Medical Discovery and ' Pleasant Pellets. My ankle soon healed and my nerves grew strong. I have not had auy return of the trouble since, and now I often walk over a mile and feel no bad effects. I am very thankful for my recovery.
