The "Wanamakor papers are kept busy explaining the cause of the postponement of the Quay trial, es pecially so since the defense were anxious to proceed with the trial. The present Congress expires by limitation at noon on Saturday, and tlie Schuylkill statesman, among others, will wend his way home to return to the scenes of his joy no more. Under the stimulus of active busi ness all over the country tlie stock of paper currency in the Federal Treasury has been gradually reduced until the government has now $227,-' 000,000 in gold and only $23,000,000 in paper. uol. uitiAJN uas neiu a nuuioer oi informal conferences with the Demo crats of prominence'in Congress, and so far as can be ascertained he is still the choice of the Democratic masses in the "West and South for the nomin ation next year.

In commenting upon an editorial in these columns, favoring the Losoh bill abolishing the office of Director of the Poor, the Hazleton Standard says : "What kind of u bunco game is the Herald trying to foist on Schuylkill countains anyway? The Herald knows full well that the measure will not eliminate polities from our charitable institutions, but will throw more power into the bunds of the Governor and keep the un chine in power." Our contemporary is unnecessarily disturbed. No one will deny that the administration of the almshouse has not been what it should be, and the plan as proposed under the Loach bill cannot be a step backward. The administration of In stitutions similar to the Miners' hog- pltal, where the trustees are ap pointive and serve without ooiupenga tlon, is sufllclent guarantee that the county's poor will meet with the same due consideration under a similar ad ministration. Tlie appointments will bo Jointly In tlie hands of the Court and the County Commissioners, whloh et present in this county are Demo cratic Jn complexion. If Senator Losch'g motives were of a polltio'il nature he would have insisted upon the appointment of the Trustees of the Institution being delegated to the Governor. That such is not tlie re qulremente of the act, Is eyidenee that the object is solely in the inter est of the poor Inmates.

Ask Mrs. Pinkham's Advlce-A Woman Best Understands a Woman's Ills i THE CORNER' LOAFER. A Contemporary dives a True Picture of the Slielinndnali Species. From Hazleton Sentinel. The coruor loafer nuisance uinkcs its up penranco regularly with tlio coming of every spring and it is always met with- precisely the same mode of treatment. Citizens make their complaints to the newspapers and to the police and both find themselves powerless to accomplish a reform. The newspapers may fill columns with the most violent abuse of the corner loafer; ho does not read it, and if ho does by clianco read those assaults upon him as an institution, he is only pleased to know that he is of suilicient importance to bo assailed. Tho zealous patrolman may movohim from the corner but it will only he to tho next. When the zealous patrolman finally becomes woary of endeavoring to keep his post clour of this objectionable species and gives him a littlo colloquial shake up the institution de clares that he is waiting for work. And that's right he is waiting for work, but he only wants about ten cents worth at a time. His system is too greatly onervated for in dustry in allopathic doses. But he is looking for work when tlie patrolman disturbs him and what can the disgusted patrolman do but allow him to contfnuo his look for work and incidentally take in tho sights of the streets. The foregoing applies to that class of citi zens whoso chief occupation in tho spring is to assist in the removal of furniture; in the summer whatever turns up, in tho fall the same and in tho winter gatting in coal. There are plenty of honest industiious men who are out of work and who are earnestly looking for it. Thoy seldom stand on the corner waiting for work to coma to them, though they do occasionally stand on the corner to whilo away a weary hour. These persons the policeman ure reluctant to disturb. The bauo of their existence is tlie unkempt, tobaoco-spitting corner loafer as an institution. Regardless Of Age. The kidneys are responsible for more sick ness, suffering, and deaths than any other organs of the body. A majority of the ills afflicting people to day, is traceable to kidney trouble. It prevades all classes of society, in all climates, regard less of age, sex or condition. The symptoms of kidney trouble.are unmis takable, such as rheumatism, neuralgia, sleep lessness, pain or dull ache in the back, a desire to urinate often day or night, profuse or seanty supply. Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing poisoned and germ-filled blood. Sometimes the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wasting of tlie kidneys) are found in the urine, which if neglected will result in Wright's Disease, tlie most dangerous form of kidney trouble. All these symptoms and conditions are promptly removed under the influence of Dr, Kilmer's Swamp-Root. It has a world wide reputation for its wonderful cure of the most distressing cases.

Their lilrroroucnH Prevent tlid Ad viiticcmontof Itlthnrltcnr Admiral. Washington, March 1. Another unsuc cessful effort was made in 'lie executive session of Ihe senate to coiiliiiu the nom inations advancing Adiinrils Kiinipson and Schley niid other olllcois who partic ipated in the SantiniJo rnmpnigu. This result was duo to the objei Hons of Sen ators llutlOr, Pottlgrew ntid Stewart, who talked through the executive session, thus preventing the taking of 11 vote. Senator Uutler linsed his objection to the advancement of Mr. Sampson upon the revelations of tliQ published record of the two ollleor, referring with es pecial euiphnsis to the fact that Admiral .Sampson had liltnsOlf been responsible for Admiral Schley's remaining nt Cien fuegos. The presentation of tills point led to a controversy its to whether Sampson hud ever issued the order. Senator For nker appeared especially anxious to se cure confirmation or denial of tills accu sation, indicating Ills opimsitlon if it was baVil upon correct Information. He wanted to know why, If such 1111 order hud been Issued, It hud not lieen Included in the record of the two olllcers sent to the senate by the secretary of the navy. To tliis the friends of Admiral Sampson replied thnt it wns to be presumed that it would hno been If such nn order had ever-been issued. Senator Pettlgrew. quoted tho closing paragraph of Admiral Schley's state ment. "No one win get around that logic." said Mr. Pettlgrpw. "Tills mat ter Is of record If the other is not, and enough is known to show the unfairness of Sampson." Senators Gorman and Wellington made nn nppcnl for action. Mr. Gorman said that lie agreed with those who claimed that there had been unfair dis crimination against Srlile.v. lint he said thnt he wnnted him confirmed, and lie saw no menus of protecting Schley wlth 3ut advancing Snmpson. A suggestion to confirm Schley and leave Sampson nniuted upon wns not accepted, and the executive session closed without action. A Narrow Escape. Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada E.

Heart troubles, at lout among tho inorl- uiins, uru certainly increasing anil whilo this may be largely-due -to the excitement and worry of American business life, it Is more often tho result of weak stomachs, of poor digestion. Real org.mls disease is incurable; but not ono caio in a hundred of huart troublo Is or ganic. Tho closo relation between heart troublo and poor digestion is because both organs aro controlled by the nunc great nerves, tho Sympathetic and Pneumogastrlc. In another way, also the heart is affected by the form of poor digestion, which causes gas and fermentation frctn half digested food ; There is n fccllhg of oppression and heaviness in tho chest caURcd by pressure of tho distended stomach on the heart and lungs, interfering with their artiuu ; hence arises palpitation ami short breath. Poor digestion alio poisons tho blood, making it thin and watery, which irritates ami weakens the heart. Tho most sensible treatment for heart trou blo is to improvo tho digestion and to insuro tho prompt asslinllatlou of food. This cm ho done by tho regular use after meals of somo safe, pleasant and effective dlgestlvo preparation, Uko Stuart's Dyspcp si.t Tablets, which may ho found at most drug stores and which contain valuable, harmless digestive elements in a pleasant, convenient lorm. It is safn to say that tho regular porsistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tuhlots at meal tlmo will euro any form of stomach trouble oxcept cancer of tho stomach.

The over due steamer Moravln, Captain Fergusen, which sailed from Hamburg for Boston Jan. IS, was wrecked on the northeasr bar of Sablo Islaud about Feb. 12. The vessel was first seen on tho bar about eight miles from the Northeast light. She was broken in two. Tho vessel wns making her last trip for the Ilnmburg American line, having been recently sold to the Sloman line, of New York. The dominion government steamer Aberdeen, which it is proposed to send to Sable Island to the relief of the Mo ravia, will not bo able to leave Halifax for two days. There is no other means of communication with Sable Island than by boat, as no electric cable has been found able to stand in the shifting sands. Xhe captain of the Gloucester schooner Nannie O. ltohlln said that when tho schooner Arbitrator reported the wreck tho latter's captain snid thnt through the haze he could see a steamer's hull high upon tho sandbar, with one mast gotie and down at tlie head, as if she were hogged. Tlie location of the wreck is the worst on this dreaded island, The northeast bar extends to sea for 12 miles, and a large part of the time is discon nected witli tlie main islands. It is prob ably impossible at this time of year to reuch the wreck from the life saving sta tions except in lifeboats. Tho captain of the Bohlln says that wheu he went to the locality where tho Sloravia had been seen the wreck hud disappeared, probably Biink. As 15 days have now elapsed since tlie steamer was seen on tho island, no particular hurry Is needed. Mechanics arc working day aud uight repairing the Aberdeen to go to the scene.
