The Economy of Rubbers.
Rubbers are prodigious money
savers—in two ways: they save shoe
“leather and doctors’ bills. The best
shoes in the world soon crack and go
to pieces if you wear them in the rain
and snow and slush. A pair of $8
shoes with rubbers will outwear a pair
of $12 shoes without rubbers. And
as for doctors’ bills, a 50-cent pair of
rubbers would have saved many a
hundred dollar doector’s bill, to say
nothing of the discomfort of being sick
and the danger of pneumocnia or con-
sumption or grip.
Debts of Cities.
Among the cities of the United States
San Francisco has the least and Phila-
delphia has the greatest debt. Tha
debt of San Francisco is $133,917.01,
and of Philadelphia 56,872,795.22. In
the bonded debt per capita Boston is
the highest, with $97.33, while San
Francisco is the lowest, being 38 cents.
Rheumatism
Is caused by acid in the blood. Hood’s
Sarsaparilla neutralizes this acid and cures
the aches and pains. Do not suffer any
longer when a remedy is at hand. Take
the great medicine which has cured so many
others, and you may confidently expect it

Patronizing a I’et Grocer.
One day Mistress MacPhairson was
trotting home from her grocer’s with
some spiritual comfort tucked wunder
her apron, when she ran up against
ner friend, Mistress Macleod, and felt
called upon to explain. “I waur just
beyont at Muster MacTavish’s store.
He keeps th’ very best ham in a’ th’
land. Our John loves a bit oo’ guid
ham, ve ken, and is ay yammerin’
aboot th’ ham at ither shops bein’
ower fat and saut.”” ‘Oor Tam th’
game,” said Mistress Macleod, “and so
I'll gang and gie MacTavish a trial
now.” Five minutes after that Mrs.
Macleod went to the obliging grocer
and asked for “a pund of ham.” “What
kind o ham?’ inquired Muster Mac-
Tabish. “Oh, gie me the same kind
that Mistress MacPhairson always gets
here.” “A richt,” returned the grocer,
with a cunning leer. And then, bend-
ing over the counter, he said in a high-
iy significant whisper. “Whaur’s yer
bottle ?”’— Weekly Telegraph.

Worrell
Spain has been the scene of many
revolutions, and the parties op-
posed to tke present Government
are preparing for another, which
they will spring as soon as they
feel themselves to be strong enough.
Don Carlos, who regards Alfonso as a
usurper and believes himself the true
King of Spain, recently issued from
his retreat in Switzerland a manifesto
to his supporters. In this he ar-
raigns the Government, seeks to inflame
the excited Spanish populace against

isters, declaring that they have per-
mitted the Spanish standard to be
dragged in the mud.
It is learned, from Spanish sources,
that Don Carlos has succeeded in pro
curring two large loans, aggregating

ister of War,
others Immediately following this
new negotiations were entered into
whereby a syndicate of Paris bankers
accepted and furnished 50,000,000
francs toward the completion of the
loan
Recently the Madrid authorities
have learned that Don Carlos has been
giving promise of high positions to
ranking officers in the Spanish army
and navy, and that he has made other
large promises since the completion
of arrangements for the loan.
The police have found that in the
palace of the Archbishop of Madrid
there is an office where thé Carlists
have their headquarters, and that
Senor Alcolea, the secretary of the
Bishop of Madrid, could reveal some
starling information, if he should see
fit to do so.
Senor Sagasta, who has hitherto
been sceptical on the point, now ad-
( mits that Carlism is the greatest ex-
isting danger to Spain. The authori-
ties are seriously alarmed at the indi-
| cations of an imminent rising. The
Carlist plans have been elaborately de-
vised, even to the extent of appoint-

The Pope has been so much im- |
| pressed by the alarm expressed by the
francs, or about $30,000,000, in Lon-
don and Paris.
Don Carlos has been endeavoring
for some time to obtain money for the
advancement of his interests in ob-
taining the Spanish throne, and to
pave the way with gold to the hearts
of the people of Spain. Don Carlos is
himself a wealthy man and his wife
has many landed estates and a large
income, but in order to carry out his
gigantic scheme of seizing the Span-
ish throne, after the treaty of peace
has been arranged and signed at
Paris by the American and Spanish
Commissioners, and finally ratified by
the two Governments, and to equip
his army and subsidize those who
would oppose him, it has become
necessary for him to borrow money.
He first began his operations to
procure a loan in Paris, but was
“turned down,” and his scheme
would have fallen through had it not
been that London bankers came to
his rescue and engineered the plan by
which the loan has been completed
and the larger part of the money, prov-
ably 100,000,000 francs, will be drawn
from English instead of French capi-
talists.
It was Sir Roger Lorelit, a London
banker, who opened up to the Pre-
tender a way in which he could pro-
cure a loan from London capitalists.
After becoming convinced that the
London banker meant business, Don
Cerralgo and one or two other trusted '
lieutenants, went to London to ar-
range matters. They traveled incog- |
nito and remained unknown, taking |
up their abode while in London in a
small hotel in Towerhamlet, where all
the conferences were held secretly.

The lonia,
Papal Nuncio at Madrid at the possi-
bility of civil war that, with the .con-
sent of the Queen Regent and with a
view of avoiding blcodshed, he has
opened negotiations with Don Carlos,
proposing that Don Jaime, the Pre-
tender’s sox, should marry Princess
Mary of Asturias, the sister of the
King of Spain.
» Don Carlos claims the throne of
Spain, under the well-known Salic
and Alfonso XI1I., eldest son of ex-
Queen Isabella, ascended the throne,
the Carlists renewed the struggle with
such stubbornness that they were not
scattered till the fall of Tolosain 1876,
when Don Carlos escaped to French
territory and has not attempted to cut
much of a figure in Spanish politics
during the present regency, though
his claims are warmly asserted by a
large portion of the Spanish people,
especially in the northern provinces.
His wife, who may, on some tidal
wave eof insurrection, become Queen
of Spain, was Margaret de Bourbon,
Princess of Parma, daughter of the
late Duke Ferdinand Charles ITI. and
sister of the late Comte de Chambord.
They were married in 1867, and,
through her large slice of the Bour-
bon fortunes, Don Carlos was kept
supplied with the sinews of war. They
have five children, the Infanta Blanca,
the Infante Jaime, Prince of the As-
turias; the Infanta Elvira, the In-
fanta Beatrix and the Infanta Alix—
dour daughters and one son—the
youngest born in 1876. The Princess
is still strikingly handsome and regal
and popular among the higher classes
of Spain.
The position occupied in Spanish
affairs by Don Carlos is similar to that
occupied by Prince Charles Edward
toward the throne of Great Britain
during the last century.
has been dispossessed for about the
same length of time and he has made
a fight just as romantic, but with more
brilliant prospects, and at the head of
the heroic highlanders, dwellers in
the Basque mountains. His followers
ave the flower of Spain, the most
aristocratic families in the kingdom,
willing to risk all in his support, set-
ting property and life itself as worth
naught compared with their honor.
There is no doubt that Don Car
los’s popularity is greater than that of
the little King... The Queen is re-
garded as a foreigner and the King is
too young to awaken any admiration
in spite of the fact that every oppor-
tunity is taken to make him do so.
That the present dynasty will en-

dure when all of the evils from which
Spain suffers are considered seems
hard to believe. Unless a miracle
happens or the powers bolster up the
throne of the little King the people
are likely to turn to Don Carlos for
relief. Don Carlos seems nearer the
throne than he has been at any time
during his career,

WHAT THE LAW DECIDES.
Game killed on an Indian reservation
by a tribal Indian and transported by
wagon to the nearest railway station
off the reservation and there delivered
to a carrier to be shipped out of the
state is held, in Selkirk vs. Stevens
(Minn.), 40 L. R. A. 759, to be subject
to the game laws of the state.
On a second trial in an ejectment
suit taken by the defeated party as a
matter of right under the terms of a
statute allowing it, it is held in Slau-
son vs. Goodrich Transportation com-
pany (Wis.), 40 L. R. A,, 825, that rul-
ings upon-the admissibility of evidence
made on the former trial have no bind-
ing force. With this case are collect-
ed the authorities on the effect of a
prior decision on statutory new trial in
a real action.
A promoter who transfers to a cor-
poration land purchased by him before
the corporation was formed is held, in
Milwaukee Cold Storage company vs.
Dexter (Wis.), 40 L. R. A. 837, to be
not subject to any liability to the cor-
poration for the amount received by
him in excess of what he paid, if he
made no misrepresentations or false
atements about the matter, and all
t subscribers had opportunity to as-
certain the conditions and value of
the land and know the price charged,
although he did not disclose to them
the amount which he paid.
The doctrine that the placing of elec-
tric wires known to be dangerous at
a place where others are lawfully enti-
tled to be constitutes negligence, is ap-
plied in Perham vs. Portland General
Electric company (Ore.), 40 ‘L. R. A.
799, to wires . strung over a bridge
where workmen in repairing the bridge
come in contact with them, and it is
also held that the apparent perfect in-
sulation of the wires amounted to an
invitation to risk contact with them,
when the wires are placed where per-
sons in performing their duties may
come in contact with them.
