President 1ms never given the
Butcher any cause to praise Win.
A Kaxsas iukii proioses a lav
against railroad snorera. Thift may
be l'opulistic legislation, ut after i II
it t the kind none of us will object to.
Sisdk prUe-flftliting eeeins to have
become actually dangerous, it need
surprise no one to witness the with
drawal of several able orators from
to
the profession.
Poht-offick robberies are becom
ing some what frequent. Possibly the
burglar have become infected with
the holiday spirit, and in order to oh
tain the means for its gratification re
sort to this unmannerly method of
obtaining what money they lack.
AK iiistrtui!nt by means of which
impurity of the air may be detected,
has been invented. There has been
a contrivance of some kind in use
from the earliest stage of creation.
Old fashioned people call it the nose.
We don't know what appellation this
new f&ngled invention will receive.
Would thiit the ilftieth anniversary
of (Jirard College could be celebrated
Itl such n manner that wealthy philan
thropists would be induced to endow
ii few more institutions of the kind.
The careerof Girnrd College hits been
one of unviable usefulness, mill the
work it has accomplished for Immun
ity cannot be expressed in (Igures.
Tka drinkers will be glad to hear
thiit thoy may reasonably oxpect a
purer quality of the article in the
future. Tho new tea law, which
went into effect May 1, is most ef
fective in excluding tho objection
able brands. Accordingto the- report
of tho appraiser at Now York, the
number of cases of tea rejected under
the old law in 1890 was only 750,
while for the same period in 1897
they numbered 18,259.
TimrtK may be much significance
In the remark of the rector of the
Berlin University that "inall Germnn
lands tho feeling prevails that we
are reaching a decisive turning point
in the history of Germany." In other
lands, also, tho feeling prevails that
Germany is turning to an aggressive
policy, and if the rector's speech is a
truthful indication that the people of
Germany are prepared to support the
ambitious projects of their Emperor,
that country is likely to make a good
deal of trouble for the rest of the
world in tho near future.
TllK different elements represented
In what is known as the Austrian
Government are at serious war with
one another, and if the outcome
should be the dismemberment of the
empire, it need surprise no one.
Should this be the case, Francis
Joseph would probably retain the
German portion of his empire, while
the fourteen other types would,
sooner or later, be gobbled up by
Russia and other powers. For the
iionor which is said to exist among
thieves, is absent from the potentates
who embrace and slobber whenever
tliey meet.
Dlt. J. C. Hiddlk, of the Miners'
Hospital, is to bo commended for the
establishment of the training school
for nurses which graduated its first
class -oft Tuesday last. The occupa
tion is one for which the delicate and
sympathetic touch of woman is es
pecially suited, and the establish
jneftpt thru school place the advan
fagetj to be obtained within reaoh of
the) young women of the region, close
to their homes. We are pleased to
note that the dootor's efforts are ap
preolatod, and feel satisfied that
under his supervision the pupils will
reeelve a training equal to that of
any of the schools of'the eities.

IT IS EASY TO TELL.
People who fail to look after their health
are like the carpenter who neglects to sharpen
his tools. People are not apt to get anxious
about their heallh soon enough. If you are
not quite well" or "half sick" have you
ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of .your sickness ?
It is easy to tell by setting aside your urine
for twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is
evidence of kidney trcublc. Too frequent
desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull
ache in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder arc out of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, ful
fills cvciy wish in reli"ving weak or diseased
kidneys and all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp-Uoot give
new life and activity to the kidneys the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts
as a tonic for the entire constitution. If you
need a medicine take Swamp-Hoot it cures.

FATALITIES AT A PARTY.
Three Dead mid Two Injtirort by Pro
miscuous Sliootlmr.
Jeffersonvllle, Qa., Dec. 1C The oitl
lens of this place were startled Tues
day night by a fusillade of pistol shots
at the. residence ot II. L. Callft, where
n i,ni,.o iinftv w am In nmcress. The
screaming of women aroused the town, I
and the whole population gatnereu
about the scene of the shooting, when
It was discovered that three men were
lying dead on the parlor floor and a
woman and a girl fatally shot.
The parlor was a scene of gaiety,
young folks dancing and singing al
ternately, and amusement was at Us
height when Shaw Qilirin, a young
mnn under the Influence of llnuor, be
came too offensive in his manner to
ward the young ladies. Mr. uaim
remonstrated with him and advised him
tn on Vim-no Tlilu ptirnered flrlflln. and
he drew a pistol and began to rave
and make threats against his host.
CallfT, knowing driflin to be a dan
gerous man, prepared himself nnd or
dered the offender to leave the house.
This pieclpltated a fight, In which
Htun ai.nta wrtrp exchanged. Both
principals dropped dead, and Clarence
Jones, a young man, was nlso killed,
the three men faKlng within a radius
nf a fnw ffet.
As soon as the first shot rang out
the young ladles began to flee for their
lives, and before tne room was cieareu
ttrn nf tliam IfPrP fntllllV WOUnded.
Callff fired three shots, all three taking
effect one striking nrlllln in tne ngni
temple and two In the breast. Griffin
Hied four times. One shot entered
lillllnir him Instantly.
Another struck Clarence Jones in tho
head, and death ensued an hour later.
Mrs. Callff was shot in the abdomen,
and her 7-year-old daughter in the
npnlf.
When tho fiehtlnir commenced the
people began to flee from danger, many
of them getting into uuggies anu unv
ing away.
