OUR COUNTRY : First, Last and Forevfer A Sim loud of American mules litis been embarked for Muiiilii. That s-attlesit. .Where tho tinny mule lifth up its voice in morning Honjr the tongue of the antl expansionist will be dumb through necessity. Thk intelligence that Spain ia tor turing Onrlists to make thelu confess to their offenses, and then killing them after they confess, muy be taken asevidence that the recently licked kingdom has recovered its normal condition, and is starting in where it left oT before the war. Thk American navy is good for anything. The Oregon, which made a name for itself by sailing round Capa Horn last spring, has sailed baok again, and the Iowa sailed along. The two ships are far up the Pacific coast, and scarcely anybody has given them a thought except the officers and the folks at Washington. Simultaneously with the coming of the cold wave, the anthracite com panies have advanced the price of coal 25 cents a ton, and, that there may be no temptation to cut' prices in order to dispose of a plethora of stock, have decided to run their col lieries only three da sin each week. This "will be hard on the poor people, who depend on anthracite for warmth in winter, and doubly hard on the miners, whose wages are far from good when they make full time. It isjio be hoped that it is true as reported that the various Republican factions in the Indiana Legislature have decided to settle the question of the United States Senutorship by unanimously supporting fex-President Benjamin Harrison. The latter has vtfry'r)roperly declined to make a can vass, for the position, and it is not kjjo,w;j even that he desires it. The people of the Nation generally, how ever, would gladlv see this eminent statesman, soldier, lawyer and patriot again take his place as a National lawmaker, and his election would re flect the highest credit upon the Re publicans oj Indiana. Thk people, of Porto Rico already have a conspicuous example of the change for the better in their condi tion in the budget of Gen. Guy V. Henry, the military governor, which cuts down the amount from 4,000,000 PMoavhich it was under the Spanish reglmetb 1,700,000, a saving of over cprceht. In addition to this the American governor proposes to take a 'part of the customs receipts for the making and repair of public roads. The people of Porto Rico were as a rule glad to see us, but they will be all the more gratified and pleased at onr coming as they see from time to tinie such evidences as this of what wo intend to do for them, and observe the lightening of the burdens of gov eminent, while at the same time t lie .government gives them largerreturns than ever. WlJATtlVKlt may be the interest of the public in the general discussion of the army investigating board, when it comes to a question of the fitness of army beef for food a general awakening follows. The beef rations cam tffiva the same source that sup plies the private consumer. The in ference Is that if the army whs fed had beef, the beef that is offered the general consumer is worthy of in vestigation. If ohemioals are used to make army beaf keep, why not suspect chemicals in beef that is of fered the private consumer 1 Fortu Tately for the buyer of meat, the ,'JU8iness is in the hands of a few frins of suoh reputation and with Euan abundant capital that an attack Rn the eondition of their produat can- lot be allowed to pass without refuta- ! on. And that brings the whole jlpusinosfl into the fierce light of public W lotice. BETTER IN EVERY WAY Was Always Troubled With Nervous ness Now Cured. MAHANOY CITY, PA.

An order has been received from Havana which, If enforced, will mean, In the Judgment of the commercial classes here, Berlous Injury to the province. This Is a di rection to transmit the entire customs receipts each week to Havana. Com pliance with such instructions would Involve the abandonment of many necessary Improvements, especially. In the matter of roads and water works. Since the American occupation began these funds have been used for such purposes, and have been the principal means of meeting the necessary ex penditures. The Ile'raldo says that to carry out this order would rob 10,000 Cubans of employment, most of whom would probably take to the hills and become bandits, having no other re course. Itobert T. Mason, British con sul at Santiago, says It was Spain's practice of monetary centralization which caused most of her troubles In Cuba. General "Wood, United States military governor of the department, on being aBked to express an opinion respecting the order declined to be Interviewed, but It is renorted that, without riffer. lng any criticism of the policy which dictates the order, he has shown his annoyance at the possibility of a stop being put to the good work being done In the province The local taxation fund is barely sufficient to meet the expenses of th city. Popular excite ment over the order Is growing among all classes.

Dover, Del., Jan. 3. The Delawate legislature convened nt noon today, and among the most Important mat ters that will be taken up by that body will be the selection of a United States senator to succeed Senator George Gray. The legislature Is Republican, and it is believed that the next senator will be of that political faith, ptovtded the existing bitter factional feeling in the ranks of the party can be healed. J. Edward Addlcks, the leader of one faction", known ns the Union Repub licans, has announced his candidacy for the position, and is being bitterly opposed by the "regulars," or antl Addlcks wing of the party. An effort was made last night to bring the fac tions together In caucus for the organi zation of both bodies. This, however, was Ineffectual, the "regulats" of the house refusing absolutely to go Into caucus, owing to the absence of Repre sentatives Pilllngand Conaway, who are sick, and because the call was not signed by a majority of the Republican members of the house. Both factions held separate conferences and the Ad dlcks faction decided to favor. Repre sentative Tharp for speaker and the "regulars" will support Representative Clark The refusal to go Into caucuJ throws .the contest Into the house. With Representative Conaway absent each faction has 15 followers. .What Shall We Do. A serious and dangerous disease prevails in this country, dangerous because so decep tive. It comes on so slowly yet surely that it is often firmly seated before we are aware of it. The name of this disease which may be divided into three distinct stages is, First, Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back, rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to urinate often with a burning sensation, the flow of urine beipg copious or scant with strong odor. If allowed to advance, this reaches the Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy pain in the abdomen low down between the navel and the water passage, increasing de sire to urinate, with scalding sensation in passing, small quantities being passed with difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it with instruments. If uric acid or gravel lias formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected. The Third stapc is hright's Disease. There is comfort in knowing that Dr. Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder specialist, has discovered a Remedy famous for its marvelous cures of the most distressing cases and known as Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root. It is sold by all druggists. As a proof of the wonderful virtues of this great discovery, Swamp-Root, a sample bottle and hook of valuable mformation will be sent absolutely free by mail on application to Dr. Kilmer &.

' Consumption Cured. BROUGHT BACK FROM Till', GRAVE. Last November Mr. Joseph James, fiainter, of 325 W. Pearl St., Iudianapo is, Ind., was at death'3 door with quick consumption. Wasted to a .skeleton; his lungs a mass of ulceration; his death was hourly awaited hy his tloctpp and family. He was kept in a constant stupor with opium. A friend, thinking to relieve his terrible cough, gave him a bottle of Brazilian Halm. Seeing its wonderful effect, the doctor advised its continued use. Mr. James soou after dismissed his doctor, and depended on the Balm alone. His recovery was rapid and complete, and in February he returned to work. His lungs are sound, and his weight greater thau at any time in his life. His recovery is regarded as almost a miracle. COMMA bacillus. In consumption beware of cough mix tures and prescriptions that contain opium. Opium paralizes the nerves, and gives the comma bacillus a good chance to destroy the lungs. It is always fatal. Brazilian Balm does not contain a trace of any opiate, but stimu lates the nerves with new life and power, destroys the microbe, and restores all that is left of the diseased lungs to a sound and healthy state which no other remedy has ever been .known to accom plish.

Ono of their number found a blue ground wasp dragging along the- ground u (load swamp spider ono-quurtor thu size of a full grown tarantula. Whether tho wasp killed tho spider or found it dead is a question beyond solution. Ho wns having n hard tlmo drugging his proy along, nnd presently left It to go prospecting for his abode. The discoverer of the wasp milled Ids com panions, and ono of tliuiii coming stepped upon tlio wasp's ground hole, crushing down soino blades of dried grass across it. This cauhed no little trouble to the insect, who, upon locating tlio nolo, nipped away nt tho obstructing stalks with his strong mandibles until he hud cleared a passage. Then be went baqk and, sized up tho spider, walking around the big body and surveying It from all fiidus. ''He's reckoning that tho holo Isn't big enough," said ono of the engineers. ' "That's nil right, Ho'll fix It," said another us tho Itihect wont bnok nnd com moneed vigorously widening tho entrance to his domicilii. Again ho returned to tho spider, seized It and dragged it to within a foot of tho orilco. To thu spectators It was evident Unit more work would have to bo done bo foro tho spider could be dragged In. This struck tho wasp, too, for again hu ran a ro imd the body, examining It oarefully, nnd returned to tho holo to take measure ments, Ho wont to digging a second time. Having dug for two minutes, ho brought his prey up to tho edgu of the hole, nipped out 11 plcco of dirt here, out away a grass stem there, nnd after ID minutes of hard and skillful labor disap peared underground, dtagglng tho spider after him.
