MONDAY. OCTOBER 9,1893.

The El wood Leader says that Democratic times and sales of lots for taxee bund in band in that place.

The New York Demooratio platform congratulates Cleveland upon "the auspicious beginning of bis Administration." Those New York Democrats have a vein for the humorous.

The Federal election laws have never put any fraudulent votes into the bal-lot-box, neither have they kept any honest votes out. No wonder the Democrats are prejudiced against them.

the Anarchist Governor of

Illinois, has opened the prison doors to ninety-five convicts during the seven months of his official career. He seems to be a friend of anarchists.jail birds and penitentiary convicts.

The Lafuyette SundayQuohosh has made its appearance. It is edited by .Judge W. S Haggard and is an offshoot of the Saturday Herald. What its name indicates nobody knows but the versatile Judge. But whatever it may mean the paper is spicy and readable.

In politics it is Republican and it promises to dull thing by their right names.

The Indianapolis Journal has placed in its composing rooms lineotype machines, that is machines to set the type for ils pages. The change from the old to the new method has been gradual until now every page is as beautiful as a sixteen year old miss in a new party dress. Typographically the Journal alwas was neat, but in its new rig it has surpassed itself.

Senator Voobhebb told the [Sentinel correspondent at Washington yesterday thiit "we will pass unconditional repeal or we will bust the engine and ditch the train." Whether the repeal bill is passed or whether it is not passed the Senator's words will come true. The Democratic engine is bound to bust and the coneequencps will be a ditched Democratic train with engineer Yoorhees among the debris.

The Review evidently is reading the handwriting on the wall. In an article on district politics it admits that Brookshire may be defeated, but that is equally true that the Vigo conntv gentleman can never succeed him. It warns the Democracy against mistakes and closes with these significant words: •'The tide is now against us to some extent. It may reach an overwhelming Hood by election time next year," The Rerieic is right.

Bane clearances still keep far below last year's figures, the shrinkage in the week just ended being 30 per oent. as compared with the same period in 189 2 No murkeil improvement has taken place in bank transactions in the past few w.t-ka, showing that, although about half of the wrecked banks have resumed ^rations and many of the factories w.iich closed in July and early August hive reopned, but they have reopened »h greatly reduced number of workert aid reduced wages, so that there has been no extended revival in trade.

O.nk by one the Demooratio idols are being torn from the throne. The wor shippers of the Tall Sycamore are be coming cold and indifferent, as witness this from the Iteview of last Saturday honutor Voorheeu In soins roapoets seems to have outlived Ills time, and doea not bave tbe lutlucnue and respect of tbe Democracy as formerly. IIIn action on the sliver Question In tlie preseut Congress after his past declara Heme Miimp blin loo much as utime-server &nd Uviimgogue.

This is the unkindest cut of all. Ii this is tbe sentiment of the Review in regard to the senior Senator it must entertain feeling akin to this concerning the Consecrated One who occupies the i'reeidential chair.

Orkbn Smith, the politioal sand bagger, who usurped the powers of the Lieutenant Governor in 1887, and de prived Col. R. S. Robertson of tbe office, has at last made confession of his crime. Colonel Robertson, it will be remem bared, instituted suit to recover the •alary unlawfully drawn and held by him. It has been dragging its slow length along ever since until last Saturday when Smith walked into the Super ior court room and confessed judgment for S500 and court costs. It was a most villaioons conspiracy to defeat Benjamin

Harrison tor re election to tbe Senate. It succeeded, of course, but it made General Harrison President of the United States. To confoss now at this late date that a great crime was com raitted must be humiliating even to the rhinocerous skinned Smith.

Tho Source of Song.

Too much wo pootst sing of love, you eajr You bid us pilch our in higher key. We look, wo listen with our souls and pray

To learn if such there be.

Not sintf of love? Then we must close our eyes And ears to every sweetest sight and sound: For love hath wauy wituesses that rise.

E'en from the very ground.

Upon the apple's cheek tho blushes glow. Brought thither by the kiss of wind and sun. The sea calls to the little streams, and lo

They answer every one.

With sweetest music from the boughs above, The happy mated birds the whole day Ions Give me a glad assurance that 'tis love

That fills the world with song.

Not sing of love, when over all below It reigns from morn till night, from right till morn? Atom loved torn ages gone, and so

The worlds were born.

Not sing of that strange power that thrills the heart To wildest rapture, makes It strong and glad? That sometimes in a life's all too heavy part

Keeps men from going mad.

You speak in vain. No power 'gainst this cau move. As long as earth by mortal feet is trod. And this is truest truth—who sings of love

Will sing of God.

And never a song, however great or true, So well the poet's heritage can prove, As the heart's simple song, so old, so new,

The song of love.

This mode of fishing is practiced a great deal by the Indians, and is the best way in the world to catch lots of fish. The way they do this is simple. The day is agreed upon by all the Indians to meet at a certain place at the river, and everyone that wants any of the fish is required to bring with him fifteen bundles of "devil's shoestring." The day set all meet to select off marshals to conduct the affair. It is their duty to collect all the fishing gigs, spears, etc., and enroll the names of all who are entitled to take part.

Just about daybreak the next day the pounded shoestring is put in sacks and put in the water the entire width of the river. It soon makes all the fish in the stream so drunk that they can easily be ptokeg up out of the shallow water or gigged or killed In the deep water. The command is given to go in and get them, and they are brought to the banks by the boat loads, many weighing as much as eighty and one hundred pounds. The frying process is then commenced by the women and a general feast is had. The shoestring poisons the water for five miles below where it is put in.

MAN'S CHANCE HAS COME.

There Arc Place. Where He Can Wear HI. Hat at Entertainments.

Last winter women were almost persuaded that they were sinners above all others. Now they know better. If men did not wear their high hats in the theaters it was not out of consideration to the people back of them, but it was the custom. All they lacked was opportunity. This they now have, says the New York Evening Sun. At the roof garden the man wears hat. It Is, perhaps, not high, but Its acreage equals that of any hat

A BIG FISH STORY

How Fish Are Caught by the Ited Men la Indian Territory.

The biggest fish fry on record in the Cpeek nation, or perhaps Indian territory, came off at Rock ford, on the north fork of the Canadian river, two miles east of ESufaula, the other day, says the Fort Worth Qazette. About two thouga^d pounds of fish were caught ftnd'%bout five -hundred Creeks from all parts of the nation took part in the grand fish festival. Over fifteen hundred bundles of "devil's shoestring" were used by them to vitiate the water preparatory to catching the fish.

by women. Its pow­

ers of eqltpse are greater. The erections of a woman's hat were never solid. A person behind could always get some sort oi a view between upstanding bows, through the foliage or the feathery filaments of an aigrette. If by chance the feminine hat has a broad brim it lets up, as it were, occasionally. It is tucked up in the back, caught up at the side. It allows for views tinder or over its waving outlines. A woman's hat has perforations, or it is perhaps of lace, through which some sense of the scene in front may be gained This may be unsatisfying, but it is not the hopeless blank effacement that a man's head covering this season presents. Formidable as it is, it would be less so if the man would wear it plumb on the top of his head, as women wear theirs. But when a man is seated at a roof garden with a table in front of him, he shows a disposition to wear his hat as a halo. This the more unreasonable, since he has no bangs wherewith to make a halo becoming.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reucli the diseased portion of I he ear. There is only one way to cure ^Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness ia caused by an inflamed condition ot the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it if entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless tbe inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed condition it the mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot te cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circular*, tree.

Pitcher's Oastorla-

No man can afford to

As I glided away light-heartedly on the delicious curves of the outer edge, reflected that he was evidently a persevering pot-hunter who would not be easily discouraged, and that I could count upon Ills engrossing- the attention of my offspring for a considerable period.

Accordingly, I was surprised, some five minutes later, to observe the fisherman shambling across the pond toward the shore. A moment afterward learned what had happened.

The horny-handed pot-hunter, having presently pulled a solitary pickerel out upon the ice and freed it from his hook, turned aside to cut another piece of bait whereupon my hopeful picked up the fish and popped It back into Its native element without so much as a syllable of commentary and thereupon he of the horny hand, having realized the situation in Its terrible entirety, pulled up his line, shovelled back the particles of ice into the hole, and betook himself upon his shambling way without a word.

Not a word, mark you! The only alternative was child-murder or silence, and my pot-hunter chose the simplest form of the dilemma. "I thought the fish would like it," said little Fred, when interrogated upon the subject.

MADAGASCAR SEDAN CHAIRS.

Their Playful Bearers and Unfortunate Passenger.

Four men at a time carry the passenger, always keeping step. The men on the left .side support the pole on the right shouldess, holding it with their right hands those on the right side have their heads between the poles, the right-hand pole resting on their right shoulders, while with their left hands they catch hold of their companions' right wrists, and so steady each other.

Every half-minute, without slackening their pace, they throw the filanzana onto the shoulders of four others, who, In anticipation, have been running on ahead so that there should be no pause. They were a bright and cheery set of people, never ceasing to laugh and chatter the whole day, and were like a lot of big children out for a game of ball—the unfortunate passenger being the ball. The sailor's description of his camel-ride over the Bayuda desert that the beast played cup-and-ball with him the whole way, and only missed him twice—would have been equally suitable to this mode of travel ing.

The bearers are of a higher class and generally younger than the baggage porters, and are specially trained to keep up a fast rate of traveling day by day. The latter have, as a rule, enormous bumps on their shoulders, which I have read are hereditary, but my own opinion is that their growth on each individual is the result of the constant friction of the long bamboos on which they Bwing their loads.

I have been troubled with chronic catarrh for years. Ely's Cream'Balm is the only remedy among the many that I have used that affords me relief.—E.VV. Willard, Joliet, III.

My son has been alllicted with nasal catarrh since quite young. I was induced to try Ely's Cream Balm, and before he had used one bottle that disagreeable uatarrhal smell had all left him. He appears as well as any one. It is the best catarrh remedy in the market.—.1. C. Olmstead, Areola, 111.

A TRUE PHILOSOPHER.

Counts*

It Was a Case That Called for of the Spartan Order.

Robert Grant, in Scribner's Magazine, defines by an Incident what he calls "a thorough-going, square-trotting philosopher." This is his Illustration, necessarily shortened. Possibly lovers of fishing will agree that not even the most unmerciful curtailing could deprive it of force.

I remember taking little Fred, my eldest son, to skate v.* 1th me one winter's afternoon on a suburban pond. He did famously for a tyro, but we both wearied at last of his everlasting strife to maintain the perpendicular, and I was conscious of a rush of Joy when he became completely absorbed In watching a man who was fishing for pickerel through a hole In the ice. "Caught anything?" asked he. "Nope." "Had a bite?" "Nope." "How long you been fishing?" "An hour."

fal'n Great Wonder.

We are surrounded by dangers all the way from the cradle to the grave. "The great wonder is," as Pat says, "that after getting out of the cradle, we live long enough to reach our grave." Thousands are out of health—morose, morbid and miserable, because they do not avail themselves of the remedy within easy reach of them. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery would cure them.

For all chronic or lingering coughs, weak lungs, spitting of blood, bronchitis, shortness of breath, asthma and kindred ailment*, it is a most potent remedy. It cleanses the blood, invigorate* the liver, improves digestion and builds up both flesh' and strength. Dose small and pleasant to taste. Large bottles, one dol'ar. Of all druggists.
