"Wk nre in receipt of n copy of tho twonty-flrst annunl report of the Presbyterian Eye, Ear and Throat Charity Hospital, of Baltimore, Md. A former resident of tills town, Charles U. Shoemaker, son of Coun cilman M. L. Shoemaker, is one of the assistant surgeons at tho institu tion. It will be a somewhat difllcult undertaking for the free trade press to Bhow that a "trust" is any more of a Republican co-operation than a trust is a Democratic union. Twist the shares of stock which way you will ; hold them up to the light of the sun or candle, and in vain will you look for a party label or finger mark. ALTnouau Wallace C. Andrews the New York millionaire, by a will, dated in 1894, left ail his fortune, without restriction, to his wife if she survived him, his millions will now go to his blood heirs. It cannot be de termined which perished first in the fire last Friday morning, but the pre sumption in law is that when a hus band and wife are menaced with death at the same time the woman, being the weaker, succumbs first. All right, title and interest in the prop erty, therefore, remains in the hus band's family. Facts Against Bryan. The "late Mr. Bryan" is still harp ing on the silver issue. In his letter to Perry Belmont he says : "Jefferson favored the double standard as against the single gold standard and during his administration our nation had the freo and unlimited coinage of gold and stiver at the lefral ratio of 15 to 1. The ratio was changed to IS to 1 during Jackson's administration." The man who helped to write the Declaration of Independence, who started the movement that swept away the restrictions upon suffrage who put the ballot and the right to hold office at the disposal of the plain people, and who on the occasion of his first inauguration hitciied his horse to a post and then proceeded to take the oath of office, was one of tho first men of his time. On the money question he believed in the double standard, ns Mr. Bryan states, but with this provisio he in sisted that the ratio between the two metals should be based upon their value in the markets of the chief commercial nations. He was born in 1743 and during his life (he died in 1820) the fluctuation of the value of the two metals was very slight. About 14, 15 or 10 ounces of silver were al ways worth an ounce of gold. Bi metallism of tlits substantial charac ter might well be characterized as solid as the gold standard. But since his death there have been times when when 35 ounces of silver would not buy an ounce of gold. Now, does Mr. B. pretend to eay that JelTerson would haye been a silver man, a 10 to 1 disciple, if he had lived to see the white metal dug out of the ground like coal ? If so, he presumes upon the people's ignorance. Mr. Bryan has said, too, that JelTer son was opposed to expansion. This assertion is also susceptible of argu ment. If he had lived to see his country destroy mediaeval tyranny in Cuba and the Philippines, would lie have advised it to quit, right away afterwards, and thus permit savage anarchy to take the place of Spanish Impotence? Well, hardly. Being a wise man and a good man, he would have said to those fond of sitting, in the gray twilight : "Have done with your cant, rouse yourselves, and do your duty, that the echoes of glory heard on the Pacific and Caribbean waters shall not have been awakened In vain." He would not have advised his country to cut and rua after the victory in Manila Bay. He would have said, like every other patriot. "We are in for it and let us see the thing through.'' GERMANY NOTBELLIQGRENT. Government DlKcoui'aneHltndlenlTallc Acnlnat America and Kiitflnnd Berlin, April 13. An offlolal dis patch from Apia, dated April 5, says: "The British have been bombarding a Samoan village dally and the ad herents of both Tanu and Mataafa are plundering foreign property. On April 1 an Anglo-American landing party of. 70 men fell Into an ambuscade near Apia. Three officers were killed and two light guns were captured. The warships afterwards renewed the bom bardment." The officials hero point out that the engagement appears to have occurred .at the same place that a landing party .from tho German warships Olga, Eber .and Adler bad an encounter with the natives in 1888. Sir Frank Lascelles, the British am bassador, contorred with Baron Vnn lviotott, tli6 Gorman forolRn minister', until a late hour last ovonlng. Tho result of tho conference has not yet developed definitely, but It is said that au agreement was reached rospocling the commission. Evidently the Gorman government Is doing Its utmost to avoid Irritating Groat Urltaln and tho Unltod States.

This appears to confirm tho report that tho visit of Sir Frank Lascollos has had a deflnlto roaiilt. since, until last night, llaron Von Uuolow had declined to consent to in terpellations. it Is understood that if a German should prove to have boon responsible) ror tho treachery the govornmunt will acknowledge his liability to punlsh mont.

The outbreak in Samoa just when the powers had agreed upon the appointment of a commission to settle the difficulties there has caused great annoyance and disappointment at the foreign office here, where it Is regarded as making the already serious complications still graver. While they have difficulty in expressing a definite opinion upon the fresh developments, It is acknowledged that the foreign office officials think It has been manifested that there has been hasty and aggressive action upon the part of Herr Rose, the German con sul, although he maji have many technical reasons for the part ho has played in behalf of German Interests. It is asserted that he has been the prime cause of the fresh outbreak, which, it Is added, will necessarily Greatly embarrass the endeavors whleh "Hail, Spring's First Born Flowers." How welcome they are, these new blooming blossoms. They are parity personified, these bits of life, with their bursting buds, joyous in their first sight of Spring. There are no impurities about them. Humanity, however, con tinues to have its troubles, most of which can be traced to impure blood. But humanity rests more contented now, for it knows that Hood's Sarsapa rilla, the wonderful blood cleanser, never disappoints. You need it today.

Tumora "A tumor as big as a largo marble came under my tongue and Instead of letting my physician operate on It, I used my favorite spring tonic, Hood's Sarsapa rllla. The bunch soon disappeared." Mas. II. M, Cobuen, 8 Union St., Lowell, Mass. Catarrh-"DIsagreeable catarrhal drop pings In my throat made me nervous and rilzzv. My liver was torpid. Hood's Sar saparllla corrected both troubles.

Tho foreign office officials appear to think that it was obviously tho duty of tho three consuls to uphold tho de cision of tho supremo court, which, ac cording to telegrams received, decided to reinstate Tanu In place of tho pro visional government, and that tho action of Herr Rose In Issuing a coun ter proclamation supporting tho rebel lious faction could not but have a dis astrous effect, as shown by tho fight ing described In tho latest dispatches. Further, the officials of tho foreign office think It impossible to say to a certainty how events will develop, but they are of the opinion that it is high time the commissioners get to work. Tho dispatch of the British admiralty from Apia, after giving the list of kill ed and wounded, adds: "Tho British and Amorlcan authorities used their utmost endeavors, previous to tho fighting, to reach a peaceful settle ment." Tho British cruiser Wallaroo and tho British gunboat Goldfinch, now at Sydney, N. S. W., have been ordered to proceed to Samoa. Regardless Of Age.

Uri'" acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing poisoned and germ-filled blood.
