Jt is of sufficient im- portance to the News’ readers to report it to them fully. 1t was so important then that it attracted considerable attention at the time. The following is the paragraph in question: 4:6. B.

When asl out it Mr. Northrop ] verified the statement, and not ‘ so, but be bad taken pains to nf any. one who was. suffering ina lar manner when he heard of any such ease. Mr. Northrop was enthusiastic at theresuit in his own case of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. It was a remedy that he had heard of after he had tried everything he could hope to give him relief. He had been in the care of the best physicians who did all they could to alleviate this terrible malady, but without any avail, He had given up : when a friend in Lockport, N, Y., “rote him of the case of a person there who . had been cured in similar circumstancss by Pr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. The person cured at port had “obtained his information respecting Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills from an article in. the - Hamilton, Ont, Times. was called ‘The Hamilton Miracle” and told the story.of-aman in that city who, “after almost incredible suffering, was pro- * mounced by the most eminent physicians to be incurable and permanently disabled. He had spent hundreds of dollars in all sorts of treatment and appliances only to be told in the end that there was no hope for him, and that cure was impossible. = The person al- luded to (Mr. John Marshall, of 25 Little William 8t., Hamilton, Ont.,) was a mem- er of the Royal Templars of Temperance, and after having been pronounced perma- mently disabled and incurable by the physi- clans, was Joe the §1000 disability insuranca provided the order for its members in such cases. For years Nr. Marshall had been utterly helpless, and was barely able to drag himeeif around his house with the aid of crutches, His agonies were almost unbear- able and life was a burden to him, when at last relief came. Some months after he had been pail the disability claim he heard of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and was induced to try them. The result was miraculous; almost from the outset an improvement was noticed, and in a few months the man whom medical experts bad said was incurable, twas going about the city healthier and stronger than before. Mr. Marshall was so well known in Hamilton ~_ that all the city newsp, wonderful recovery if detail, and it was thus, as before stated, that Mr. Northrop came into ion of the information that Jed to his equally. marvelous recovery. One © could scarcely conceive a case more hopeless than that of Mr. Northrop. His injury came about in this way: ne day, nearly rs wrote up his “four yearsago, he stumbled and fell the complete length of a steep flight of stairs which were at the rear of his store, His head and spine were severely injured. He was picked up and taken to his home. Creep- ing paralysis very soon developed. itself, and in spite of the most strenuous efforts p and ng the ter. iction. sclf upon him, early two. he was perfectly gs. He could nothing to sup- his strength in the least effort. He had be wheeled about in an invalid’s chair. He was weak, pale and fast sinking when his timely inf ation cams that veritably snatched his life from the jaws of death. ‘Those who at thgt time saw a feeble old man . wheeled into his store on an invalid’s chair would not recognize the man now, so great is the change that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have wrought. When Mr. Northrop learned of the remedy that had cured Mr. "Marshall in Hamilton, and the person in Lockport, he rocured a supply of Dr. Williams’ Pink ills through Messrs. Bassett & IHomme- dieu, 95 Woodward aveuue, and from the outset found an improvement. He faithlully adhered to the use of the remedy until now . he is completely restored. Mr, Northrop declares that there can be no doubt as to Pink Pills heilE the cause of his restoration to health, as all other remedies and medical treatment left him in h condition rapidly go- ing from bad to worse, until at last it was “declared there was no hope for him and he was pronounced incurable, He was in this terrible condition when he began to use Dr. William¢' Pink Pills, and they have restored ~him to health. . Mr. Northrop was asked what was claimed for this wonderful remedy,and replied that Te understood that the proprietors claim 16 to be a blood builder and nerve restorer; supplying in a condensed form all the ele ments necessary to enrich the blood, restore shattered nerves and drive out disease. It is claimed by the proprietors that Pink Pills will cure paralysis, rheumatism, sciatic ~ palpitation of the heart, headache, and all diseases peculiar to females, loss of appetite, dizziness, sleaplessness, 1083 of memory, and all diseases arising from overwork, mental worry, loss of vital force, etc. $I want to say,” said Mr. Northrop, “that ¥ don't have much faith in patent medicines, but I cannot say too. much in favor of Dr. ‘Williams’ Pink Pills. ‘The proprietors, how- ever, claim that they are nota patent med- cine in the sense in which that term is used, but a highly scientific preparation, the re- sult of years of careful study and exp eri. ment on the part of the proprietors, and the pills were successfully. used in privdte ctice for years before being placad . or general sale, ~~ Mr. Northrop declares that he is a living ex- ample that there is nothing: to equal these pills as a cure for nerve diseases. On inquiry e writer fouud that these pills were man- ufactured by Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., and Brockville, Ont., and the pills are sold in boxes (never in bulk J by the hundred), at 50 cents a box; and may be had of all druggists or direct: by mail trom Dr. Williamg’ above addredses. | The price at which these pills ave sold makes a coutse of treatment. with fhem comparatively inexpensive as comparet with dther reniedies or medical Lon ament. ‘This case is one of the most re- marikable on record, ani as it is one right bere in Detroit, and not a thousand miles away, it can be easily verified. Mr. North. rup is very well known to the le of Detroit. and he says he is only too glad to tastify of the marvelous good wrought in his * pase. Hesays he considers it his duty to “help all who are similarly afflicted by any word he can say in behalf of the wonderful slficacy of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Potash.

After some further un- impdrtant business the Senate adjourned. In the House, after routine business, Mr. Brookshire of Indiana, from the committee on postoffices and postroads, reported back adversely a memorial asking for an investi- - gation relative to pneumatic postal service in Philadelphia. Laid on the table. House then adjourned. ESDAY-—IN spite of the super-heated at- mosphere in the senate chamber to-day the opening debate in the presidential campaign took place. Mr: Aldrich opened it with a declaration that the tariff question was to me by common consent the leading is- sue of that campaign. Mr. Vest took up the auntlet and announced it is the determina- ion of the Democratic party to make that the issue in every hui oh in the land. The debate was also participated in by Senators Allison, Hale and Palmer, It lasted be- tween four and five hours, and at its close The the resolution on which it was based was: laid on the table, to be taken up again when Mr. Carlisle shall be ready to @#newer Mr. Aldrich on the points made by him. The anti-option bill was taken up, but, as the time for adjournment was close at hand, the bill was laid over till to-morrow. The anti-option bill was laid before the senate as and it went over till to-morrow. . . The general deficiency bill passed the house to-day. A bill passed to reserve from ‘entry one section in each township in Okla- homa so as to have in reserve a body of land which may be sold after Oklahama is admitted as a state. The house a'so passed a bill providing that no railroad in Okla- homa or in the Indian territory shall charge more than three cents per mile for passen- gers. Also, a bill to enable the people of tah to arrange for participation in the World's fair.

The commission is to ‘be created for the purpose of a general: in- uiry into the condition of = highways hroughout the United States and the means for their improvement, especially as to the best method of securing a proper exhibit at the World's Columbian exposition or im- proved appliances for roadmaking. Thesen- ate bill to facilitate the enforcement of the immigration and contract labor laws of the United States was taken up on motion of Mr. Chandler and after explanation: and some verbal amendments was passed. In the House all the Senate amendments to the sundry civil spprobiation bill were agreed to to-day except the World's Fair ap- RispHation of $5,000,000. Holman led the libustering against this until adjournment. A motion to cut the amount to $5 was lost by 79to 141. A final adjournment resolu- tion will be brought in to-morrow and the fair matter will be brought to a test thereby. TravurspAy—The anti-options bill was pass- ed to-day in the Senate. The Senate also passed an eight-hour law as to public works of the United States and, of the district of Columbia. The Committee on Contingent Expenses reported a resolution for a com- mittee of seven to inquire into the Home- stead trouble, including the Pinkerton ques- tion; also the mining trouble in Idaho. Mr. Quay objected to the present consideration of the resolution, and it was laid over until to-morrow. Adjourned. The proceedings in the House to-day were intensely stupid, and filibustering motions on the World's Fair appropriation prevailed all day. The only motions now in order until the deadlock is broken are for ad- journment and a call of the House. These dilatory tactics were pursued until 4 o'clock, when the House adjourned until to- morrow. : : FripAy.—In the Senate to-day, after some difficulty in obtaining a quorim and a brief silver speech by Mr. Stewart, Mr. Carlisle addressed the Senate on Mr. Hale's resola- tion as to the relative merits of ‘protection’ and a ‘“‘taritf for revenue only,” and in re- sponse to the speeches of Messrs. Hale and Aldrich. After a short speech by Mr, Al- lison in defense ‘of the McKinley bill Mr. Hawley obtained the floor. The Hale reso- lution “went over till to-morrow and the anti-option bill" was laid before the Senate as the “unfinished business.” Tt was laid aside informally, and the President's mes- sage vetoing the McGarrahan claim bili was read and postponed until the second Tues- day in December next. Adjourned. n the House Representative Hatch, from the committee on agriculture snbmitted to the House a report prepared by the commit- tee on the effect of the present tariff law upon agriculture, The World's Fair bill was then taken up and filibust< *ing continu- ed until adjournment. SATURDAY.—In the Senate, Mr. Quay called up the resolution adopted by the house an- nouncing the death of Representative Craig. At 2:20 it adjourned. The chair appointed Messrs. Cameron, Carr and Gorman to re- present tha senate at Mr. Craig’s funeral.

Description of the Greatest and Fastest Vessel Afloat. The new United Statescommerce destroy- er Columbia, officially rated as Cruiser No. 12, but nicknamed “The Pirate.” was suc- cessfu'ly launched at 3:30 o'clock a few afternoons ago in Cramp's shipyard, Phila- deiphia. The young lady who was selected to christen thas beautiful craft was Miss Edith Morton, the daughter of Vice-Presi- dent Morton, 3 Tr THE COLUMBIA, x When all was ready she broke a bottle of champagne, gaily decorated with a haud- painted picture of the cruiser and red, white and blue silk streamers, upon the cruiser’s prow, and the new mem- ber of the navy gracefully slid from the ways an beautifully settled in the water. As the stern struck the river every whistle in the vicinity began shriek- ing, "ani the pandemonium continued for some minutes. The Columbia's anchor was cast when the middle of the river was reached. Among the christening party who mounted the flag-covered stand at the bow of the vessel were Secretary of the Navy Tracy, Vice-President Morton and Mrs. and Miss Helen Morton. The ladies carried large . bou quets of roses, and H. Cramp, of the ship- building firm, stood at the side of the fair christener as Jrompte, There were also several hundred persons from Washington, New York and elsewhere on tne platform. While no invitations were issued by the firm of William Cramp & Sons, the yarc was early thrown open to the public and all were made welcome. From Washington came asmall but distinguished party ol officials, including Commodore Norman H, Farquhar, Chief of the Bureau of Yard and cks; Commodore George De vey, of the Bureau of uipment: Commodore Francis 8. Ramsay, Bureau of Navigation; Commodore William M. Fol ger, Bureau of Ordnance; Chief Construc tor Theodore D. Wilson, of the Bureau o Construction and Repairs; Paymaster-Gen eral Edwin Stewart and Captain John A Howell, President of the Steel Board. Fifty thousand people watched the launch. ing from the yard aud neighboring docks, and, in fact, from every vantage point. The Columbja is named in honor of th capital of South Carolina. Shs is of a clas: that takes the name of a city. In viewo the near approach of the Columbus Centen: nial, Secretary Tracy thought that the name might have a double significance. Description of the Vessel. Crusier No. 12, when completed, will no only be a triumph of shipbuilding, but wil embody all the essantials of propulsion offensiveness and defensiveness which have long been recognized as combining the fac tors necessary to a maximum efficiency i naval architecture. She is termed ‘‘the 7000-ton, three-screw commerce destroyer” in the Congressional Appropriation bill. She is prmarily designed for spsed, for her chief function will be to sweep an enemy’s commerce from the seas. Todo thi she must. be abl: to overhaul in an oceay race the swiftest passenger steamships. Ths trans-Atlantic record being five days, nine teen hours and five minutes, she must breal it down to five days and a fraction of an hour. A combination of perfected ma chinery such as has never befars been de: signed will accomplish this end. The cruiser is full of intricate mechan. fsm and has ten boilers, six of which are double ended, 1514 feet in diameter by 21 feet long. Two others are 111¢ feet in di ameter by 18% feet long, an the remaining two, which are single ended, are ten feet in diameter by eight feet long. The boilers are made of steel and carry a pressure of 160 pounds. Eight of the largest are built in air and water-tight compart- | ments, into which is forced a draught of 216- 500 cubic feet of air per minute when run. ning at full spe The engines are three in number, consist- ing of vertical, triple-expansion cylinders, each of which develops 7000 horses power and drives a separate screw. Under full pressure, each of the three screws should turn at the rate of 128 revolutions per min- ute. Ninety revolutions was the maximum of the City of Paris. The cruiser’s shafts are made of forged sicel 16.5 inches in di. ameter. The vital portions of the vessel are pro- tected by an armored deck 4 inches thick on the slopes and 214 inches on the flat. The gun deck will be minutely subdivided by coal bunkers and store rooms. The bunkers not, used for coal will be filled with a patent substance of such solidity as to form a wall 5 feet thick, and having all the advantages of an inner and supplemental armor. In the event of an emergency this patent substance, the nature of which is kept secret, can be used for fuel. Forward and abaft ot the coal bunkers the cofferdam will be filled with a water-excluding substance similar to woodite. In the wake of the eight four-inch and machine guns the ship's sides will be ar- mored with four and two inch plating. The six-inch guns, which are four in number, will be mounted on the open deck and pro- tected by heavy shields attached, as in the new ships, to the gun-carriages. % The coal capacity of the cruiser is 2000 tons. At ten knots speed per hour this will give her an endurance of 109 days, a radius of action of 26,240 knots, and she will be able to steam around the world in 109 days without recoaling, thus breaking all records for speed, economy and capacity. ° The batteries of the cruiser will consist of four six-inch breech-loading rifles, twelve six-pounders, rapid firinz; two machine guns, cne field gun and six torpedo tubes. She will have two signal masts. : ‘ The new cruiser is eminently superior to any other war ship in the world. e Blake, the finest ship in the British navy, is the nearest approach to Cruiser No. 12. It was stipulated in the contract with the Cramps’ that the vessel, in all its parts, should be of domestic manufacture. A sister ship, Cruiser No. 18, is construct-/ ing by the Cramps. Her contract was awarded August 11, 1891, the Cramps's bid being $2,745,000, less $55,000, which they threw off. Both vessels will be identical in character, except that No, 18 will carry a heavier battery. KILLED BY THE WEATHER. The Heat Death Roll Augmented. ; The large death roll due to the heat dur- ing the past week was considerably aug- mented Friday, as the following dispatches show: New York—There have. been 42 deaths from the heat in the last 24 hours. CnicAco—The actual number of deaths reported during the five days of extreme heat reached 87, and the prostrations 215. PurrapenpaiA—Thirteen deaths from the heat were reported to the coroner. The prostrations were about 50. Considerably “ton, CNciNNATI—About 15 cases of prostration "A BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY. The Gorgeous Exhibit of Flowers at the Columbian Exposition. The display of flowers and fruits at the World’s Fair will be beautiful be- yond description and will surpass all previous ones. “If will play a most im- -portant part in the adormment of the grounds, and will be attractive to all classes—to the scientific visitor on ac- count of its educational value, and fo the ordinary observer owing to its or- namental features. This exhibit is to be seen in almost all parts of the grounds, but the most beautiful and valuable plants and fruits will be found in the Horticultural Building, which is to be 998 feet in length, with an ex- treme width of 250 feet. Ite plan is a central pavilion with two end pavilions, each connected with it by front and rear curtains, forming two interior courts, each 88 by 270 feet. Surmounting the central pavilion is a beautifully propor- tioned dome, 187 feet in diameter and 113 feet high. i In the south pavilion will be an ex- hibit of wines, the finest the world has ever seen. Already thirty-three for- eign countries have applied for space in this department. In the rear part of the building will be the finest exhibit, embracing specimens of every known species in the world. These will be, as far as possible, natural fruits in prime condition. © Where this. is impossible perfect wax representations will be sub- stituted. ; 5 The floricuitural exhibit will be very targe. For this very extensive prepara- tions have already ‘been made. The flowering. plants have to be brought to the grounds in season to have all of the ill-effects of transplantation and trans- portation overcome before the exhibit is opened to the public. More than 500,000 shrubs and plants are already growing in the grounds. One entire island, embracing between fifteen and sixteen acres, will be devoted to horti- cultural displays, and will be the most attractive spot of any connected with the exposition. 2 John Brown’s Old Home. Kate Field tells, in her Washing: about her first visit to John Brown's old home, up in the North Woods, some time ago, and her scheme for buying it when she héard it was for sale. Hurrying to Boston, she mentioned the case to Wendell Phillips and Ralph Waldo Emerson, who sent her nice, sympathetic notes, but neither money nor advice. A male friend then volunteered to rush out on the street and colleet it among his friends, but he failed. Only one person, a lady up there, ‘1 actually contributed any cash, that is, aside from Kate Field’s own $100. But within forty-eight hours after she had stated the case to a New York gentleman he had picked up eighteen subscriptions, each of that amount. ‘With this $2,000 the farm was bought and a good tenant secured, who still remains. “When I revisited the Adi- .rondacks recently,” says Miss Field, “1 found our property worth three times what we had paid for it, the house in good repair, and John Brown’s grave the mecca of all tourists.” + The Art of Not Hearing. A kind of discreet deafness saves one from many insults and much ing should be learned by all. It is quite as important to domestic hap- piness as a cultivated ear, for which so much money and time is expend: ed. There are so many things which it is painful to hear, many which we ought not to hear, very many which, if heard, would disturb the temper, corrupt simplicity and modesty, de- tract from contentment and happi- ness, that every one should be edu- cated to take in or shut out sounds according to his pleasure. If a hot | and restless friend begins to inflame our feelings, we should consider what mischief these flery sparks may do in our magazine below, where our tem- per is kept, and instantly close the door. It has been remarked that if all the petty things said of one by heedless or ill-natured idlers were tc be brought home to him, he would become a mere walking pincushion stuck full of sharp remarks.
