Si-iNWH newspapers praising tbc President of tha United State fur his valuable assist ance iu the snppres.ion of the i ub.ui struggle for liberty is a reproach to the Am- rican people. Let us hope hii seccessor will act differently. A Mi BDEit of a young woman in the com partment of a railway car within tha limit of the city of London has stirred up the British public nearly as much as the Cretan difficulty, and the clamor for the abolish meat of compartments is almost frenzied. An Irishman whan asked why he always Miked to himself, replied: "In the first place, because I like to talk to an intelligent man ; in the second placo, because I always like to hear nu intelligent man talk." The leading husinesa men of Shenandoah have the same ri-nions for using the columns of the Herald they talk business to the intelligent readers of Shenandoah, and receive a large patronage in return. Admiral Bunck has stirred up a hornet. nust among the bureaucrats of the uavy de partment by his criticisms of the vessel ol t';e new n:ivy wbioh composed his blockading iiqnadron before Charleston, and the heads of bureaus are all preparing to smash his conclusions to pieces with all kinds of theories. The admiral found the equipment of ouc ship defective, the turrets of another n it properly placed1 and the guns of a third t in heavy for the siee of the vessel, lie has stirrud up a" veritable hornet's nest and for s one time to come the newspaper represents t v.s at Washington will be aalled upon to K've publicity U the views of the bureau chiefs. Meantime the Admiral has stated, f.ifts as he found them during a storm and seems to have the best end of it. A I, itt I. p. flattei-y jiays in business.

The Texan was careless enough to throw his coat in the pocket of which was a wallet contain ins 450 in bills, on tho ground in a field where a yearling calf wsb grazing. The call caught a glimpse of the green on the bills protruding out of the wallet and promptly proceeded to chew them up. The Texan cauzht him in the act and rescued a lot of the lulls, but the calf had swallowed $210. There was nothing to do hot promptly kill the calf, which the angry Texan was not slow in (lo ins;, when he found a solid lump of paper in the stomach, which was boxed up aud sent to the Treasury at Washington. The experts iu that office found upon unravelling the lump that the claim was correct aud $210 in crisp new bills was sent him to replace the calf 's dinner. He will be more careful with Ins coat hereafter, when lie has money in i at leant. Ex PKEsrnKKT Harrison lias written of "A Day With the President at His Desk," for the liarch Ladies' Home Journal. The article is said to be singularly interesting in the detail with which it describes the weari some routine of the President. It issaid that (icueral Harrison, in this article, has de livered himself with great directness and vigor, relative to the annoyances that are visited upon a Chief Executive by persistent office-seekers, aud he suggests a unique plan, by which the President's bunlmis in that direetion could be greatly lightened, and he be enabled to devote more attention to more important matters. A feature of the article that will have a timely interest to those am bitions to serve the country under the in coming administration, describes very fully how the President makes appointments to office. "A Day with the President at His Desk" is unique in being the first time that the daily life of the Pissident has been de scribed by one who has filled the exalted office. Articles upon the social and domestic life of the President by General Harrison will follow in successive issue of the Journal THE OBNOXIOUS TRUSTS. Were it possible to get at all the fact con nected with the history of soma of the lead iug trust of the country, and ware the method adopted truthfully reported, and the amounts realized by the trust gambler correctly stated, there would be a wide open ing of eyes on the fart of the great majority of the people, and the wonder would be ex pressed how, in a country like oars, such things can be.

The naval ap propriation bill for the next flcal year has been practically completed by th. house committee on naval affalis, and may be reported to the house by Chairman Boutelle today. The b 1 carries a total of about S33,000,00u, which Ib, about $2,000,000 more than the appropriation for the current year. The committee decided yesterday to put In the bill the new battleship of the first class recommended by the sub-committee.

Anil fixed among tho impor tant principles of hygiene and health is tho acknowledged necessity of a good Spring Medicine. Just as firmly ostahlisliod by tho ex periences of millions of people, is the positive fact that Hood's Sarsnparillu is "far and away" tho best blood puri flor and spring medicine ever produced. The necessity is found in the ini puro condition of the blood at thib season, owing to the close confine ment and breathing vitiated air in of ilee, store, shop, houe, schoolroom or factory ; excessive outing and drink ing too rich and hearty food; late hours and social indulgences. With the blood thus thick aud impure, the machinery of life grinds hard. Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies, vital izes and enriches the blood, builds up aud strengthens the nerves and tonus the stomach. It oils up the machinery of the whole body; the liver takes up its work anew, the kidneys resume activity, the ache goes out of the back, tho bowels are regulated, the apitetite restored, the food is relished and as similated. Don't wait till yon are thoroughly sick before you begin to take a Spring ilodiclne. Lock tlio door before tho horse is stolon. Take Hood's Sarsaparilla now as a lirt'ventive aud it will jtay yon a tliou sand fold in heal th and strength thrc ugh the oomiug summer. M Hood arsapan Sold by all druggies. 1, six for 85.

The " Favorite Pre scrlptioti" acts directly upon the organs that make wifehood and motherhood possi ble. It makes them strong and healthy. It allays inflammation and soothes pain. It relieves the strain upon the nerves. It pre pares for motherhood and Insures the health of the child. All medicine dealers sell it.

A statement of the financial condition of the state treasury of Nebraska shows that ex State Treasurer J. S. Bartley, Repub lican, has a deficit staring him In the face ot over $500,000. Coupled with this is a little item of $27,000 which ox State Auditor Eugene Moore, also Re publican, needs to account for In or der to balance his books.

A Michigan Man Offers to Send His Dis covery Free, Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened Mankind, There Is always more or less suspicion attached to anything that Is offered free but sometimes a man so overflows with generosity that he cannot rest until his discovery is known to the world, in order that his fellow men may profit by what he lias discovered. It is upon this principal that a resident of Kalamasoo, Mich., desire to send flee to mankind a prescription which will cure them of any form of nervous debility ; relieve them of all the doubt aud uncertainty which such men are peculiarly liable to and restores the organs to natural siae and vigor. As it, costs nothing to try the experiment it would seem that any man, suffering with tbe nervous troubles that usually attack men who never stopped to realise what might be tbe final result, ought to be deeply interested iu a remedy which will restore thorn to health, strength aud vigor, without which they continue to live an existence of untold misery. A the remedy In question was the result of many years research as to what combination would be peculiarly effective in restoring to meu me sirengwi uiey neeu, u would seem that all men suffering with unv form of nervous weakness ought to write for such a remedy at once. A request to II. ('. Olds, Dox 1712, Kalamasoo, Mich., staling that you are not sending for the prescription out of idle curiosity, but that you wish to make use of the medicine by giving it a trial, will be answered promptly and without evidence a to where information came from. Tha piescriptiou is sent free and although some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to give away bis discovery, there is no doubt about tlio oiler being genuine.
