TllK minor of Grfiitor New York
1ms very tmtl milliners, if the reports
of his reception of the captain of
tho Spanish ship now in our waters
lire true.
TllK manner in whioh Captain
Sifrsbee conduct hiim-olf in tho try
ing ordeal lie is passing through ex
cites tho admiration of naval oflieers
of Christendom and adds lut-trp to
the name of the American seaman.
TllK evidence for tho defence in
the case of Sheriff Martin, now on
trial, puts a different aspect on
matters around Lattimer on the ill-
fated day in September last to what
the evidence of tho prosecution pre
sented. War has not yet been declared
against Spain, but Congressman
Brumm is still declaring war against
the Civil Service law. Ho lias a
bigger job on hand than Samson had
when he killed so many Philistines
with a similar weapon.
NoTWiTiiSTANDlXO our friend
David Graham's statement to the
olTeot that he has tho Mahanoy City
postofflce in his grasp, wo are st'Al of
the belief that he will never lick
stamps for Uncle Sam. When the
appointment is made, however, he
will bo just as anxious to lick both his
journalistic partner and Urunim.
Thk steamship companies and
their agents are agitating against the
passage of the Immigration act. It
would mean a great loss to these
companies if the bill bocame law,
but a great gain lo tho workingmeii
of this country. Congressman
Brumm is receiving hundreds of
petitions in favor of the enactment
of more stringent laws than now
koxist.
It has become so common a prac
tice for political organizations to
leave a balance due tho publishers at
the close of every campaign, that a
kick is seldom heard. Publishers
have become so use to tho practice
that they expect it. Hut a Now York
publisher has entered suit for a claim
of tltls nature. There are a very few
publishers with sufficient nerve to
push a suit of this kind, although it
0 is strictly a business transaction.
Thomas V. Uoopkh, of Media, is
out as a candidate for Governor and
has cut loobo from all relations with
tho Quay forces. He has announced
this in a telegram just sent Senator
Quay, as follows: "I havo burnt all
my bridges behind mo. I am out to
make new friends. You need not
dook for my assistance any more. I
am my own candidate for governor
and have no boss." Cooper has here
tofore been a strong Quay supporter
It is amusing, In theso times of pro
gressive journalism, to rear'i the self
laudatory comments of some county
newspapers over what they term
"special industrial editions." The
fact of the matter is, they are com
piled and printed in a Philadelphia
newspaper oillco as an advertising
scheme, and those enterprising (?)
county papers receive a $5 bill for
their "distribution." Fortunately
there was but one newspaper in this
county that was so badly in need of
the small stipend.
Beautiful Tribute.
The following beautiful tribute to
tjie gallant sailors of the ill-fated
Maine was delivered by the Ilev.
Father Woods, at a Requiem Mass
celebrated in the Church of the
Holy Cross, Platbush, Now York, on
Washington's birthday :
"No true American has ever gone
to his grave unwept and unsung.
His bones may rest on a foreign
shore, but hie memory and tho glory
of his achievements live and become
the Beeds which keep our country
tilled with heroes and patriots who
are Inspired with the spirit of '70.
We have never been precipitated in
trouble with other nations Bave when
justice and right have been violated
or endangered. Tho brave men
whose loss wo mourn to-day started a
few weeks ago on the ill-fated Maine
simply to protect our countrymen in
Cuba. They lost their lives in saving
those who sought shelter beneath
the Stars and Stripes. We add now
lustre to tho crown of Washington
i by doing honor to the memory of tho
Idead horoes,"
These are sentiments which rouse
echoing Anion in tho breast of
kevery patriotic citizen

Saving Lives.
Doctors declare that cancerous growtht
cannot be cured. Surgeons say they can cut
them out, but that it only postpones the in
evitable. The old
trouble comes
back. The poison
it in the blood.
You can't cure
it from the out
side. Make the blood
pure and rich, then the
disease can't thrive.
That is exactly what Dr. David Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy is good for.
Rev. I. W. Hill, pastor of tho M. E.
Church at West Almond, N. Y. ,some years ago
suffered with a cancer of long standing on
the lip and concluded to have it removed.
About three weeks before the operation ho
purchased Dr. David Kennedy's Favor
ite Remedy, and continued taking it for
some time after the cancer was removed.
Ten long years have passed since then, and
no trace of the ugly thing has returned.
This wonderful medicine acts as a nerve
and blood food. It makes permanent cures of
Nervous Debility, Sleeplessness, Dyspepsia,
Rheumatism and all Women's Weaknesses.
It restores the disordered liver to a health
condition and cures constipation.

BLADDER TROUBLES.
The bladder was created for one purpose,
namely, a receptacle for tile urine, nnd as
such it is not liable lo any form of disease
except by one or two ways. The first way is
from imperfect action of the kidney?. The
second way is from careless local treatment of
other diseases.
SAMl'I.H SUNT l'KKH.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is
the chief cause of bladder troubles. It is
comforting to know that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root fulfills every wish in quickly curing
bladder and urinary troubles. It corrects ina
bility to hold urine nnd scalding or stinging
pain in passing it, or bad effects following use
of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get
up many times during the night to urinate.
The mild and extraordinary effect of Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It
stands the highest for its wonderful cures of
the most distressing cases. If you need a
medicine you should have the best. At drug
gists fifty cents and one dollar. You may have
a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free
by mail upon receipt of three two-cent stamps
to cover postage on the bottle. Mention

Little Hock, Ark., Feb. 21. A bloody
tragedy was enacted here yesterday, the
principals being Dr. J. II. Hartsell, a
physician, and William Klliott. The
tragedy grew out of family nrl'alrs In
which Mrs. Hartsell was Involved, and
which, it Is alleged, led to that lady's
suicide about a month ago. Dr. Hart
sell fired three shots at Elliott, two of
which took effect. Klliott wrested the
revolver from the physician's hand,
turned it upon him and fired two shots.
Physicians pronounce both men mor
tally wounded, it is said that Elliott
made improper advances to Mrs. Hart
sell during tho doctor's absence some
time ago. The Hartsells filially sepa

IS IT CURABLE.
A Question Often Asksd by Thost Afflicted
With Piles.
Is a stralued jolut curablo? Is local in
flammation curable? Of course, if properly
trsated. So is piles.
People often become aflllctcd with pllos
and ask som old "chronic" who has ulwayr;
persistod in tlio wrong treatment and natuV
ally he discourages them by telling them
that their caso is hopeless.
They in turn discourage others, and thus a
dlseaso that can in every easo bo cured by
careful and skillful handling is allowed to
sap the energy of thousands whomght free
themselves of tho trouble in a fey days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most ag
gravated case of hemorrhoids n an astonish
ingly short time. It relieves'' the cougested
parts, reduces the tumors instantly no mut

stops the aching r itchlnc at one,
Thousands who had resorted to expensive
surgical treatment have been cured by tho
Pyramid Pile Cure in i uumberof instances
persons who had spent (nontlis in a hospital
under a pile specialist. -
It is a remedy that none need fear to apply
even to the most acciavated, swollen and
inflamed hemmorrhoidal tumors.
If you are afllicted with this stubborn dis
ease you cau master it aud master it quickly.
This remedy is no louger au oxperimeut,

Mr. Ed. O. Ebsen, compositor on tho Contra
Costa Ifcwi, Martinez, Cab, writes! "I havo
used Dr. Miles' Restorative Ncrvlno andro
colvcd much benoflt from It. I was troubled
with norveusncss, dizzy spelU nnd sleepless
ness, caused by tho uso of tobacco and stim
ulants. 1 took Dr. Miles' Kerrlno with raar
rclously good results, allaying tho dizziness,
quieting tho nerves, and enabling mo to
sleep and rest, proving lu my caso a very
beneficial remedy." Dr. Miles' Bostot-atlvo
