Dkspkiiatk efforts liave been made
over in England to find a satisfactory
explanation for tliosuccoss with which
American locomotive builders are
competing with those of Great
Britain.
Tub often promised abolition of
slavery in Zanzibar is still in abey
ance. It is almost impossible to ob
tain free men to work in the fields
where spices are grown, as it means
death, and so the British authorities
restore runaways to their owners.
The news editor of the Miners1
Journal should read his contempor
aries more carefully. Tho Republi
can sentiment in this section does not
favor D. O. Henniug for Judge, nor
did tho Herald so report it. Ex
Judge Koch is the favorite just now.
According to reports coming from
all portions of the country the Presi

A woman notary public in Cali
fornia, who was recently married,
asked tho Attorney General what
name she should use officially in the
future. He has replied that she
must sign all documents as before her
marriage, for he finds no law com
pelling or even authorizing a woman
to drop her maiden name on tho
simple excuse of marriage. In fact,
ho says that there is no authority for
a ohange of name at marriage or at
any other time.
Newspapers, when considered
from an advertising standpoint, have
everything In their favor. They
reach both tho masses and the classes
and they reach them with n frequency
that commends itself as u shining
virtue to the man who has something
to sell. Moreover, a favorite news
paper can not be supplanted In the
hearts of its constituents by any other
sort of publication, which insures it a
permanency of circulation that can
not be duplicated,
Incidents like the rescue of the
entombed miner at "Wllkesbarre give
proof of how strong is humanity In
the toilers of the mines. It was
heroic service that Cosmoro's fellow
workmen rendered, and throughout
the ordeal he bore himself -with manly
fortitude. It is on such occasions as
this that these "men with tho hoes'
shovr to tho world how rioh they are
in manhood. No one can read the
details of the rescue and the conduct
of Cosmoro without feeling that thrill
which comes only when the heart is
touched.
While there is every reason to be

strong indications of tho most lively

Loulsvlllo, June 27. A continuous
performance of howling ftrce made up
tho program of the sixth day's sossion
of tho Democratic state convention,
and It narrowly escaped winding up In
an exhibition of pugilism niul marks
manship. From 10 a. m. until 6 p.
m. Central Music Hall contained, with
out doubt, the most iipronrloun and
disorderly body of men that ever Rtitu
cred together for the transaction of
political or other business. Angered
by what they considered an arbitrary
ruling of the chair, in refusing to al
low an appeal from his decision de
claring out of ordor a motion to re
move policemen from the hall, ovor
hnlf the delegates set about with all
tho onergy they could command to pro
vent by deafr.nlng noise tno transac
tion of any further business until they
secured a vote on this appeal. This
plan was successfully carried out until,
principally hecauso of utter physical
oxhaustion, the filibusters allowed
themselves to be outwitted and the
ballot on nomination for governor,
which tho chair had ordered early in
tho morning and had tried ropoatedly
to proceed with, was concluded by
having the county chairmen, or na
many ns would, come to the stago and
yell thoir votes at the clerk, who at a
distance of a few inches was ablo to
catch the figures. A second ballot
was reached, this time with less tribu
lation. These two ballots, both fruit
less, reprosont tho day's work of the
convention. After they were com
pleted all wero glad onough to ad
journ until today.
Behind thiB spectacular entertain
ment the threo candidates for governor
worked llko beavers. Yesterday it
was clearly Goebol against the field,
nnd tho Kenton county loader has suc

Burkholdor, a newspaper man, has
created a sensation in political and
army circles by charging thnt a Uni
ted States senator forged a letter In
support of tho senator's hostility to
expansion and to the war in the Phil
ippines. The letter purported to have
been written by an officer of the First
regiment. South Dakota volunteers,
whoso name was withheld through
fear that the writer would be court
martialed. It described the conditions
in the American ranks as being little
better than In tho convict camps of
Siberia. A defense was made In bo
half of tho senator that tho letter
should have boon dated May 9, instead
ot April 9.- The letter appeared In the

THE FISH COMMISSION. V!
Vnlno of Its Work Illnntratod on tho
l'noillo Coast.
Washington, Juno 26. Tho work of
tho fish commission Is practically com
pleted this year. According to the
officials ot the commission when the
reports aro sent In July 1 they will
show that It has been tho most suc
cessful year in tho history of the com
mission. Fully as many shad havo
been planted this year as last, whoa
the high water mark In shad propaga
tion was reached. Tho great com
mercial value oi the work done by
tbo fish commission can best bo illus
trated in tho case of shad. The
catch of shad In 1885 was 5,000,000.
The systematic collection of eggs and
distribution of shad fry since that
year have increased tho catch annu
ally, until this year It reached 13,000,-
000, an Increaso of 150 por cent in 14
years. At the same time tho cost
of shad has been decreased to the
consumer more than 30 per cent. The
value of tho catch this year was up
wards of $800,000. This result has been
obtained by the commission with a
total expenditure of $42,000.
So successful was tho experiment
made soveral years ago for the intra
duction of shad and striped bass on
the Pacific coast that the planting of
those two food fishes on that coast has
been suspended. The shad catch on
.tho Pacific now ranges between 1,000,
000 and 2,000,000 annually. The total
cost of introducing tho shad Into Pa
cific waters was hut $6,000. So plenti
ful havo the striped bass become in
the Pacific coast streams since their
introduction that they can be pur
chasod in the rrurkets of the coast
cheaper the year round than in tho
eastern markets. When thoy wero
first Introduced they brought $1 a
pound.
In Massachusetts there org two of
the largest marino fish culture Btatlonfc
In tho world. At those the cod, pol
lock, flat fish (flounder) and lobster are
propagated. Ovor 300,000,000 cod oggs
wore collected here and botweon 150,
000.000 and 200.000.000 fry distributed,
Ovor 40,000,000 flat fish were planted.
The lobster s6ason has not yet closed.
Over 100,000,000 eggs have already
peeii taken, and It is oxpected that 60,
000,000 more will bo taken botoro tbo
closo of the season.

Dr. Jackson points to
the startling fact that
there are now 20 million
Catarrh victims iu this
country and the number
rapidly increasing. It
has already become the
National Disease. Are
wc to become a nation of
Catarrhltes? It looks
like It. .
The Aboriginal Indians are snld not to have
xnown the disease. That proves It Is not caused
ly our climate and must have been imported.
4s growth was slow but pertislcnt. Forty
.ears ago there were less than 40.000 cases in
the U. 8., to-day there are 20 million. 80011
there wlli be 30 million. Where Is It to end?
-Shall we not awake till it has fastened Its fangs
iu every man, woman and child In the laud?
llow shall we prevent it unless we talce immed
ate and vigorous steps to stamp out theplague?
t'his putrid disease knows no sex, no cfass, no
.tation. It Is everywhere. A germ (microbe)
disease it spreads by contagion. The carton
ireatb and expectoration of the poor victim are
oa Jed with these microbes. Others breath them
iu, they find lodgement aud never release their
'iold till the victim lies down In death, unless
-very microbe Is killed. But can they be killed J
Yes, but not by any "blood medicine," No Ca
tarrh germ was ever found iu the blood. The
trouble is local aud must be treated locally. A
jalsam has been discovered that Is sure death
to the Catarrh microbe, making a radical and
,iermaneut cure. It Is Brazilian Holm. It has
aired tens ol thousands lu the past 15 years, It
dso cures all the troubles caused by Catarrh,
.s Sore Throat. Old Couffhs, Bronchitis, Asthma
ind Lung troubles. The swallowing ot the
Catarrh pus makes the Stomach raw and ulcer
tted. The Brazilian l)a!ni soon makesa radical
cure of the Stomach and alimentary canal. It
is the cheapest remedy on the market, a $1.00
.mttle containing a whole month's treatment.
As all sufferers with Catarrh and Asthma have
run-down systems we will tilt January next put
1 mouth's treatment of Toxlcola Tablets, free,
,n with every $1.00 bottle of Brazilian Balm.
This is the best Tonic and nerve nnd strength
.milder known. You get all lor $1.00, a month's
treatment of both. Now Is the time to treat
vour Catarrh. Do not delay. Ask your druggist
,iik1 take no substitute. If he will not get It,
send direct to us. B. 1'. Jackson & Co., M'f'g.
