tliloUKliont the country nivei. !!03 for
expansion and lO.'l Multilist it. Kvery
section of the country is for it except
the South, and thut is nenrly a tie in
newspaper sentiment.
Still the news comes of industrial
activity. The Southern l'licillo Knil
roud hits jiibt placed orders tii,'fre;iit
Ing two million dollars, for rolling
stock, with Eastern manufacturers.
""The order consis-ts of ilfty largest

Thk town of Until, Eiifrland, is suf
ferinir from an epidemic which is not
quite so contagious as the fjrip. The
epidemic in question is that of twins,
no less than six pairs having recently
been contributed by the wives of
miners at one colliery, and two others
adding triplets to the record.
OnovKK Clhvklanu is throwing
his whole weight against the doctrine
of expansion. Since he got stuck in
the mud a few days ago he has made
up his mind that the United States
ought to stay at home and fix the
local roads rather than to be yearning
for foreign turnpikes that wo know
not of.
TimHaldwin Locomotive Works, at
Philadelphia, have "rush" orders for
ilfty-six locomotives, hixteen of which
are for China, the t-econd order from
that far-ofT land. Ordinarily at this
season it hus been found necessary to
reduce the working force, but in
order to get their work out on eon
tract time the force has recently been
increased to over 5,000 men. The
capacity of the works is 1,000 locomo
tives per annum.
Thk passing of the general pension
bill in the House, carrying an appro
priation of SMS.OOO.OOO. without any
opposition from the Democrats, South
or North, is significant. It means
that tho sectional line lias dropped
out. Allen, of Mississippi, remarked
that when he entered the House four
teen yeSrs ago pension hills always
precipitated a bloody-shirt discussion.
There was nothing of that sort in the
House in this case, however, and
there will not be in the Senate.
Tint demoralization of the market
for anthracite coal last summer and
fall was attributed to the action of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern railroad In cutting rates, tihortly
afterward it was announced that this
action mlelit result in a change in
the management of thut corporation
Noiv tile rumors of the resignation of
President Sam. Slouit ami Vice Presi
dent Holdeii. who is in immediate
charge of coal trallic, are revived in
such a manner that considerable
credence is given them by men in
the trade.
Now that the grip is again epidemic
it behooves every one to keep the
body warm and especially the feet.
While the present attack is reported
not us virulent as that of eight years
ago, it leaves tho system notably sus
ceptible to pneumonia. Its most pro
nounced symptom is said to be ex
treme weakness, and physicians ad
vise against lighting it oil but to stay
at home and get under treatment as
quickly us possible. It Is so wide
spread that its advent here may be
looked for at any time. The Health
Board of New York has ordered the
street cars all to bo thorougly cleaned
and fumigated at once and the street
department is putting forth extra
efforts to clean the streets thoroughly

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glasss with your
water and let it stand twenty-foAir hours :
n sediment or settling indicates an unheal
thy condition of the kidneys ; if it stains
your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble j
too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the
back is also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO IX).
l'licie is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Knot, the great kidney remedy lulldls every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the
miliary passages. It corrects inability to hold
water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or beer,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
being compelled to go often during the day,
and to get up many times during the night.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Koot is soon realized. It stands the
highest for its wonderful cures of the most
listressing cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. At druggists fifty cents
or one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle nr.il n book
that tells more about il, both sent absolutely
free by mail, if you send your address to Dr.

New York. Dec. 23. Colonel Roose
velt talked to m aily 100 little Italian
children ycstrduy In the Children's
Aid society's school In Sullivan street,
where he went by special Invitation,
In compMiy with Jacob A. Illls. Only
nine of the :i7o children In this school
were bom In America, but they all
know about Colonel Roosevelt, nnd
wanted to see him. So one of the little
boys wrote the colonel a letter and
asked him to come to the school. No
name was signed to the letter, but
Colonel Uooscvelt accepted t once.
The children sang for Colonel Roose
velt and went through the ling drill,
and then the colonel told them about
his regiment. The bugler, he said, was
an Italian, and was so brave that after
he hud the llnsers of his hand shot
away, so that he could not bugle nny
more, he had spent the rest of the day
carrying the wounded from the field.
The brave, Colonel Roosevelt said,
were always good and tender. In con
clusion the colonel exhorted them to
be good, clean nnd ready to fight If
need be; to be able to give a good ac
count of themselves; to be tender and
kind to their mothers and sisters, and
some day he might take them Into his
regiment.
The children gave the colonel three
rousing cheers when he ceased talking,
and a crowd of boys followed him down
to the elevated station, cheering all the
way.
