Thehr will lie some new faces and tome old one In tbe next Senate. Hut the usual article of Senatorial cheek will be on dis play. Tub large army of hungry politicians who have been hovering about llarrlsburg, look ing for political appointments, have wended their ways homeward, nine out of every ten of them sadly disappointed. Schuylkill, however, fared very well at the hands of the d Ispeusers. 0ck agaiu the "autl-trcatlng" hill make its appearance in the Legislature of this state This time It is fathered by Represent tr e W, McElliany, of Allsgheny.anditsprovisionsare said to he very stringent, making it unlaw ful for any person to ask others to "take a driuk" at his expense in a public place. If it becauiea n law many people will be without a favorite occupation. Wxarein receiptor a communication,!!! fact several of them.conilemiiig in strong language the publication of the obscene literature that is spread among the children of the town, and highly complimenting the course of the IIkbai.ii ami the reverend gentlemeu who have condemned its publication. One communication from a mother is especially severe ncaiust those who are so devoid of all honor and respect for the youth of tho town, as to stoop to such base tactics. Wo cannot, however, give space to these communications because the writers thereof Imvo failed to furnish their names, as an evidence of good faith. The Health Hoard of New York city has decided that consumption is an Infectious disease and hereafter will treat it "in the same way that the milder contagious diseases are treated." This moans the physicians must report to the sanitary bureau all cases coming under their observation. It has taken tho medical fraternity a long time to make up its mind that the disease which destroys moiu human lives than any other is infectious aad not hereditary. Having arrived at this point perhaps medical science may now be expected to find a cure for this scourge of humanity. The selection of Mr. W. It. Andrews, who is at prosont secretary of the Republican State Committee, to bo private secretary of United States Senator Penrose, is an eridenco that tho latter believes in rewarding cues friends. Mr. Andrews has a wide acquaint auce nmong the Republican leaders of the state, and ho has plainly shown that he is well equipped for so exacting a position by tho manner in which he has performed the duties of his piesent position. Mr. Penrose is certainly to be congratulated upon securing the sorvices of one so thoroughly equipped. TJio-ifERALD cxteudi its congratulations to the present secretary of the Republican State Committee How do tho restrictive clauses of tho State Constitution trip up the heels of the careless legislator and conserve the psaco and older of society ! Tho decision of Judge Homphill, pulling the string out of tho tail of the Pure Food law, is not based upon any denial of legislative authority to deal with food adul terators as they deserve, but upon tho fact that the statue was defective in its title. The law was so drawn as to punish persons guilty of selling adulterated foods without reference to whether they had or had not guilty know ledge of tho spurious character of tho goods. It allowed the makers of such food to escape; but not the vendors. The design of tho Jaw was good ; but its construction was so faulty as to mako it a matter of gratification that the author of the bill, the legislators who passed it and the Exccutivo who approved It did not discover the technical blunders of their lawmakers. Tho people pay vory dearly for tho blunders of their Uwmakors, but it somttimes happens, as in this instance, that a blunder turns out to be a benefit. THAT CANTON VISIT. There has been much speculation as to the object and result of the visit of Senators Quay aud Penrose to Canton, but as neither of the two gentlemen named nor Major lie Kinley will talk for publication tho public has no definite information. It will be re- tnembared, howevor, that what might prop erlr be termed the first official announce- rnent that Senator Quay would support Mr, Penrose for the succession to Don Cameron in the Senate, in prefsreuoe to the many other candidates, came from Major Carson in his Washington despatches to the Philadelphia Ledger. That was on or about the first uf December, In view of this faot Major Carson's version of tbe recent visit of Senators Quay and Penrose to Canton may be accepted as the uearest to correct of the many that have ap peared iu tho newspapers. Mr. Carson in his careful way says : "Quay and Penrose went to Canton on their own motion, but were none the less welcome. It is currently re ported that the primary purpose of tho visit - wets to urge the name of Governor Hastings for a Cabinet place, and the two Senators, while declining to talk with any dennlteness about their Interview with the President elest, give out strong intimations that tho object of the visit was to place the name of Governor Hasting on tho eligible list for a Cabinet place. "There is reason for the belief, however, that Messrs. Quay aid Penrose went to Can ton more for the purpose of keeping out a oertain gentleman, whose name has. "been prominently mentioned iu this connection, I than with an expectation of putting a man in the Cabinet. Mr. Charles Kmory Smith, of Philadelphia, has been named by the Presidentelect as one who was more likely to be placed on the list of Cabinet Ministers than many of those whose names hare been paraded with frequency and conspicuous, news in tbe newspapers. The two Pennsyl vania Senators may have said nothing against tbe selection of Mr. Smith as the repre sentative from Pennsylvania, but they un doubtedly named Oov. Hastings ip the ex pectation that this would be accepted as a protest against the selsetion of that gentlo-Miaa." THE BENIN MASSACRE. Thn reneefnl Briton Were Into Am busli nnd Slain. liOnow.

No ono can toll what tho end will be. Pneumonia, catarrh, chronic bronchitis, if not consumption, invariably result from a neglected cold. It is surprising too, that bad colds arc so often neglected when one remembers how easily and nt what littlo expense they may be cured. Cham berlain's Cough Itcmcdy is always prompt and effectual, and costs but n trifle; 25 or 50 cents is a trifle as compared with the disas trous cUerts of a neglected cold. Jlr. Aimer Mercer, of Dilworthtown, Chester County, Pa., in speaking of this remody, said ; "Somo timo ago I had a bad cold and cough. I tried almost ovorythiug. Finally Mr. Hunt, tho druggist, recommended Chamberlain's Cough Itomedy, aud one 50 cent bottlo of it cured mo entirely." For sale by Gruhler liros., druggists. Three-Day Tour to Washington.

Neittier is ill health for it is one of Death's weapons and the most effective.
