Thkuk's an opportunity at Harris burg for a man who will insure the brick houses of legislators ugainst bribery investigations. If the beef investigators will stop with the beef packers long enough, they will be convinced that Chicago embalmed beef is the only fit thing for a king to eat. The electric method of thawing water pipes could not have had a better season than this to demon strate its utility and convince the country of its staying qualities. The wages of the iron workers at the great plants throughout this and other states are being advanced 10 per cent, and in some instances more. The tide of national prosperity has set in everywhere. It Is now said thut the reported iiu inense coal combination will not be a formal combine, on account of legal complications which would arise if papers were to be signed and u single corporation formed. There is to be, however, an understanding among all the corporations concerned, which it is expected will be as effective as a formal combine. This the law cannot touch. It is delightful to observe that when the Marine Band serenaded the British Guards Band it first played "God Have the Queen" and then "America." The visitors somehow or other knew which was which, and they stood at salute while the Eng lish hymn was in progress and broke into cheers for the President when the tune well, say changed, though so far as laymen know the two are just alike. The professional ear is very keen, however, and perhaps the programmes helped. They often do 1 Bishop Potter and Saloons. Bishop Potter, of New York, has written a letter to Dr. Lyman Abbott about saloons which has attracted much attention. The Bishop is a liberal-minded person, and usually strikes from the shoulder. In the course of his talk he says "it is the old situation as old a the religion of Jesus Christ with the Scribes and Pharisees on the one hand, the Sad ducees on the other, and, over against them, the Truth." He then proceeds to read the prohibitionists a severe lecture, charging them with "hold ing one meagre fragment of the truth to their eyes, and denying great and fundamental facts in human nature, in their foolish and futile endeavor to remedy the perversion of human in stincts by extirpating them ; true children of the mediaeval systems of monastic asceticism, which they would fain substitute for the freedom of regenerated manhood. The gro tesque hypocrisy of the prohibition system, from Maine to Kansas, is a sufficient commentary upon their theories." Continuing the learned Bishop says "the endeavors of wiser men and women to better the condition the homes, the domestic life, the recrea tions of their less favored brethren go untouched of these fit successors to the Pharisees." He acknowledges, however, that men of wealth who have dismissed the "saloon" question as hopeless and insoluable, have in recent years grappled with the lurger problems of the housing and better ing of wage-earners in all the various aspects in which these problems pre' sent themselves, and have done noble and generous things along the line of a wiser and more brotherly considers tlon for their fellow men. "In the larger aspect of a vast question," concludes the Bishop, "the saloon is a mere inoident. Its causes, its phases, its relation to the home life as well as the individual life of communities, the evils that feed It, the miseries that support it; a whole host of questions such as these wait for a consideration whioli as yet they have hardly had. "Meantime it may be well to relieve the minds of fanatical and hysterical people by saying that there is no one cure for so vast a mischief as the .saloon stands for; and, generally, that, in dealing with humanity and Its perverted instincts and appetites, the Dlvinest Teaoher that the world has had would geeni to have taught us a law of transformation, as that for the regeneration, whether of society or of the evil instincts of individuals - not extirpation, " , JERSEY GLASS WORKERS. o roughly Organ 1 7.d,Tlioy will Demand tlio Viilim Mould. riillailMpliln.

The hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip colored complexion indicates it. A physician would ask if you had rheuma tism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate often, or a burning or scalding in passing it ; f after passing there is an unsatisfied feeling as if it must be at once repeated, or if the urine has a brick dust deposit or strong odor. When these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in removing the cause. Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments, or may run into Bright' s Disease, the most dangerous stage of kidney trouble. I,. icitmel a ' -i a J:- covery of the eminent kidney and bladdei specialist, is a positive remedy for such dis eases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is so easy to gel at any drug store that no one need suffer any length of time for want of it. However, if you prefer to first test its wonderful merits, mention Evening Herald and write lo Dr. Kilmer & Co.. Binghainton, N.

KENNEY N0WTIIE ONLY SENATOR Thrco DomoerntH Arouso Indignation liy Votliin; l'or Aililleks, mnl Aro Roundly I Unwed Tlio Next Legisla ture Wilt Uleot Two Senntors. Dover, Del., March 14, After one of the most exciting scenes that has ever been witnessed 111 the general assembly of the stnte, the session of 1809 ended nt U.00 o'clock yesterday afternoon with out electing a United Stales senator to succeed lion. George Gray. It Is the first time In the history of the stnte that there is an unquestioned senatorial va cancy, nnd owing to the established pre cedent of the upper house of congress In refusing to scat guhernationlal ap pointees utter the legislature of u state has had nn opportunity to elect, the scat of Mr, Grny will remain vncant until the general assembly of lbOl shall choose his successor. At the same time the term of ltichnril It. Keiiney will also expire, and it will therefore devolve upon the next legislature to elect two senators The fiuul ballot, the 14th of the day, and the lKtth during the session, wns ns follows; John Edward Addlcks (Union ltcpubllcnn), 21; Colonel Henry A. Dupont (Republican), 0; John Hlggs (Democrat), 0; ex-Congressman L. Irv ing llniuly (Democrat), 5; ex-Senator George Gray (Democrat), 4; Wlllard Saulsbury (Democrat), li! ex-Senator Anthony Illggius (Ucpublicnu), 'i. The time decided upon for adjourn ment sine die wns 3 p. m., and when the 14th ballot wns completed It lacked 18 minutes of that hour by the hoiico clock, which was six minutes slow. Tho Democrats then uilpoted filibustering tnctlcs In earnest, although they pro longed the balloting during the nfternoon by moving, after each ballot', that the houses separate, nnd upon which mo tions aye and nay votes were always necessary. The filibustering was led by Representative D. C. Hose, a Demo crat, and it hnd for its purpose the con sumption of time In order to prevent an election. The scheme was successful, and with Itose on the floor making an nddress on the disorder iu the room and on other pretended themes, the presiding olllccr. President Pro Teni. Charles II. Salmon, Democrat, of the senute brought down his gavel with resounding whacks ns the clock pointed to the hour of 3. The chamber was In a uproar In nn In stant, and It was some time before quiet was restored. Democratic members nnd regular Republican members who are op posed to Addlcks cheered loudly, many of the legislators jumping on their desks and waving their hats while cheering. The scene will long be remembered by those who saw it. The final session was productive of surprises, intense excitement ami 1111 other elements that go to make up a gathering of such Importance. The sur prises were the action of benator b. 11. F. Farlow and Representatives .1. u. Clark nnd W. V. King, Democrats, in going over to Addlcks. Farlow and King, who were looked upon as steadfast Democrats, bolted 011 the first ballot yesterday and Clark fol lowed on the next one. Pressure wns brought to bear by ex-Congressman Ilandv and other lending Democrats upon the three bolters, but they were ob durate nnd would not "return to the fold." This made Addlck's vote 21, or w 1,ort of uloction. tho lolnt conven tion Iielllg Llmiiiuocu u. ot iuciiilM.. These Democrats were hissed by the spectators every time they voted for Addlcks. but the protest had no effect upon them. It was feared Addlcks' vote would 1 1 increased by the desertion of several regular Republicans, reports to this effect huving been current for sev eral days, hut nothing of the kind oc curred, and the 21 votes were his maxi mum strength. At no time during tlio 14 ballots was there any prospect of an election. AVhcn President Pro Tern. Salmon an nounced the general assembly adjourned sine die nt 3.0li o'clock, and amid the wild disorder that followed, Farlow, Clark and King, the deserting Demo crats, made their way from tne cham ber, with crowds of indignnnt persons nt their heels. Threats of vnrigus kinds were made against the bolters, who found a refuge iu the senate chamber. where they remained for two hours or more. The feeling gradually subsided, although the men were jeered as they left the capitol. The trio offered sev- oral excuses for their action, but to thei'1 former Democratic colleagues the ex planutions availed nothing. The balloting for senator began on Jon. 17, and It has continued dally since then, with the exception of Sundays. At no time was the vote of any candidate over 21. The defeat of Addlcks at the session jr. st ended mnrks his second unsuccessful effort to reach the senatorship in this state. In ls'JO, after failing In an election, four of his followers held out to the Inst, and thus prevented the ab solute election of Colonel Henry A. Da pont, who was subsequently refused ad' mission by the United States senate. Tho Dixie oh n Transport. Washington, March 14.

My nerves are stronger and more steady thatl ever before in my life, and my backache and all those terrible pains are gone Before taking your medicine I woighed less than one hun dred and thirty pounds. I now weigh one hundred and fifty-five pounds. My friends say I look better than they ever saw me, and I know that I feel better than I have for a good many years.

My husband wanted me to see a doctor, but I could not consent to that. He then wanted me try your medicine, and this I agreed to do. I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound, also used the Sanative Wash, and am to-day a changed woman. I am free from my misery, and can go to bed and sleep like a baby. I can work with comfort, and it does not tire me as it did to walk. Vour remedies have done wonders for me, and cannot be praised enough. I would not be without them.
