Wirie llic Portuguese Church of St.
John the Baptist in Boston was undergo
ing repairs last September, the workmen
found a spring of pure water beneath the
building. A well was dug, above it a
shrine was erected, and the water was
consecrated. The pastor oi the church
assured his people that there was no mi
raculous power or even medical \iituc in
the water, and that If any cures had been
effected they were simply the tvsulc of
faith in God. But the people would not
accept the explanation, and the stories
of the remarkable virtues ol the water
spread rapidly. Soon there was a per
fect rush of people to the church and
it was found necessary to establish re
strictions in regard to supplying the cov
eted fluid. Applicants are now required
to repeat prayers for the souls in purga
tory and drop a cent into the contribu
tion-box, and are supplied with the water
in bottles.
The Tribune: The fact published in
The Tribune the other day about the
frauds in the last Mississippi election are
not disputed by anybody. The Demo
cratic editors unanimously ignore them,
which is a more discreet and holiest
course than their former one of denounc
ing all such revelations as " Radical lies.'
The Memphis Avalanche , an Independent
Democratic paper, which keeps a close
eye on Mississippi politics, says : •' There
never was a more fraudulent election
than the Mississippi election, and the
State is idled and ruled by oltlce-stealers,
and everybody knows it. Such a thing
as a fair election is unknown in that
State." This is a notorious fact. Yet
Senator Lamar expects to be reelected to
the Senate by these "olliec-steulers." and
will steal for him. AVe should like ex
tremely well to see him give a high-toned
explanation of his motives in prollting by
this infamous theft.
lii a truly rural district of Arkansas an
old man was accused of stealing a pig.
It was a clear case, but to the astonish
ment of everybody the jury brought in a
verdict of not guilty, in exact opposi
tion to the evidence and the Judge's
charge. When the court adjourned the
Judge approached the counsel for the de
fence and remarked; "Look here, my
friend, 1 never heard of such a verdict.
1 cannot, as an impartial disseminator
of justice, allow so flagrant an outrage to
be perpetrated on this community. That
man is as guilty as Judas, but if you will
tell me the secret of the acquittal I'll al
low the verdict to pass." "You see,
Judge, some of the jurymen was rather
young and some rather older." " Yes,
but what does that signify?" " It signi
fies that I run in the old man's twelve
sons on the jury."
Congressman Charles N. Brumm of
Schuylkill county, introduced a bill Fri
day of last week, authorizing; the Secre
tary of the Treasury to audit the claim
of the county of Schuylkill. This claim
is against the National Government and
is for nearly 810,000. During the war,
when that couutv was crowded with sol
diers the county furnished allotments to
the amount of something like 8-00,000.
Over 8100,000 of this money was refund
ed. The remainder it is stated remains
unpaid.
- The will of Col. Forney instructs
his executors to cudevor to secore re
payment fcom the Government of 849-,
000, paid by Forney while Secretary of
the Snnate on account of the defalcation
of a subordinate.

and composition. This is one of the wonders of the
world. This Syrup, I claim, is better and more
effective than any other ever offered to the ople of
America or any other country, and what 1 say of
this 1 can prove, This Syrup, like the Tills, is
harmless and safe. It contains no opium or other
narcotic poison, like the most Syrup, and is not dis
agreeable to take. Any child will take it. And it
will cure any and all inflammations arising from
Cold. It is superior to all others in dVery respect
and especially for the following reasons:
"Ist. It will cure Croup every time.
