PARTICULARS OF ONE OF THE MOST REMARK-
ABLE CURES ON: RECORD DESCRIB -D RY
THE DETROIT NEWS—A STORY WORTH"
A CAREFUL PERUSAL.
* (Detroit News.)
~The following paragraph, which ativeared
in the News a short time ago, furnished the
* ‘basis of this information—a cass that was
80 wonderfully remarkable that it demanded
- further explanation. 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. Northrop. for 28 years one of the

mye, who was supposed to be dying last

ralysis, bas secured a new lease of life and

grave

Since that time Mr. Northrop has steadily
proved, not only in looks, but in condition,
#ill be has regai his old-time strength.
It bad been Rinted to the writer of this
: le, who was acquainted with Mr,
, that this miraculous ge had

] 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

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.

declares that he is a living ex-

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.

FIFTY-SECOND CONGRESS.
Moxpay.—In the Senate to-day, Mr. Petti-
grew introduced a joint resolution, which
- referred to the committee on the Quadro-
centennial, authorizing foreign = exhibitors
to the World's Columbian: exposition to
bring to this country foreign laborers, for
the purpose of preparing for and making
their exhibits. ‘Mr. Cullom offered a con-
current resolution which was agreed to
granting the ladies of Washington per-
mission to give a reception in the capitol on
the 19th of September 1892, to the Grand
Army of the Republic and to the Woman's
Relief Corps. 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. Adjourned.
- WEDNESDAY. —1n the Senate to-day, on
motion of Mr. Cullom, the senate bill to
create a national highway commission and
to prescribe its duties was taken from the
calendar and passed. 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.
In the House the World's Fair Appropria-
tion bill was again under consideration, and
no action was reached when the house ad-
journed on account of the death of Con-
gressman Craig.
CONGRESSMAN CRAIG DEAD,

(Pa.) District Passed Away
Friday Night.
Alexander D. Craig, a member of Con-
gress from the Twenty-fourth (Pa.) district.

several weeks.
Congressman Craig was a native of Wash-
ington county. During all his life he was
an active Democrat, but was little known
outside of his own count

drew Stewart two years ago. Mr. Craig has
served in Congress since february. He was
about 60 years old and but recently announ-
ced himself as a candidate for re-election. He
was an earnest, conscientious member of
gongress. and he was held in high esteem
by all who know him. He was especially
popular in his own county. He leaves a

Loxvox, July 26.—A terrible tragedy is re
ported from the village of Guheen, in Bally.

woman of the village, having become in-
sane, seized her three children one after the
other and held them head downward in &

Halifax’s Destitute Thousand.
The condition of the people in the un

Columbia, Our Commerce De-
stroyer, Launched.
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.

"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.
