CHICAGO Inter-Ocean: Hoke Smith Smith hurried to get in out of the storm and restored Judge Long's pension. Hut the Judge was not satisfihd with that he pushed his cause in court and was sustained, and the Pension Office got well wet down.
EX-PRESIDENT HARRISON will leave about the middle of February for California where he goes to deliver a series of lectures before the students of Leland Stanford University on constitutional law. He is to deliver a course of six lectures in as many weeks.
THE accumulation of idle money in the banks of New York has reached 8224,562,000, and the surplus 892,583,075, loans being 8109,000,000 less than deposits. This state of things is thfe most conclusive proof that business does not improve, and the shrinking receipts of the United States treasury tell the same story, The Secretary of the Treasury has learned that his deficit for the year will be over twice as much as he estimated, and it is now asserted that he will issue long-time bonds for 850,000,000 or so within fifteen days, if Congress fails to provide other means of raising money. If he likes the responsibility of issuing such bonds, in order to carry though a rev-enue-smashing bill, he has a curious taste. Congress, at all events, is not in haste to take that load off his shoulders.
IT has just come out that Cleveland, Oresliam and Blount had a long conference last Sunday. The President and Secretary of State put the amateur diplomat from Georgia through a very sharp examination upon his report, which has formed the polity of infamy. So Blount is to be made the scapegoat, so far as that can be done. The several direct contradictions of Blount's statements in Minister Willis' dispatches are so glaring as to establish the truth of the charge that Blount during his stay at Honolulu, consorted with royalists alone, and tends to show that he went to Honolulu with a pre conceived design and with a preconceived judgment. It would be inter esting to know just what Blount's instructions were from Cleveland and tireshain. A searchlight should b« turned on the whole infamous affair from the time the treaty was withdrawn from the Senate up to the time that Uresham sent his last dispatch to Willis.
UENENAL ANDREW JACKSON, the patron saint of the Democratic party, thoroughly believed in the American doctrine of protection. In a letter to Dr. Coleman, August 20, 1824, he wrote: "Heaven smiled upon us and gave us liberty and independence. The same Providence has blessed us with the means of National independence and National defense. If we omit or refuse to use the gifts which He has extended to us, we deserve not the continuance of His blessings. He has filled our mountains and plains with minerals, and with lead, iron and copper ['raw materials.'—ED.], and given us a climate and soil for the growing of hemp and wool. These being the great materials of our National defense, they ought to have extended to them adequate and fair protection, that our manufacturers and laborers may be placed in a fair competition with those of Europe, and that we may have within our country a supply of these leading and important articles so essential to war. In short, sir, we have been too long subject to British merchants. It is time we should become a little Americanized, and instead of feeding the paupers and laborers of England, feed our own men, or else in a short time, by Continuing our present policy, we shall be paupers, ourselves."
No better statement of the Republican position on the policy of protection, even had it been made by McKinley. That policy espoused by Jackson is denounced by modern Democracy as a "fraud" and "a robbery."
A STUDYJNSCARLET
By A. 00NAH D0TLB.
CHAPTER Vll. THK CONCLUSION.
We had all been warned to appear before the magistrates upon the Thursday but when the Thursday came there was no occasion for our testimony. A higher Judge had taken the matter in hand, and Jefferson Hope had been summoned before a tribunal where strict justice would be meted out to him. On the very night after his capture the aneurism burst, and ho was found in the morning stretched upon the floor of the cell, with a placid smile upon his face, as though he had been able In his dying moments to look back upon a useful life and on work well done. "Gregson and Lestrade will be wild about his death," Holmes remarked, as we chatted it over next evening. "Where will their grand advertisement be now?" "I don't see that they had very much to do with his capture," I answered. "What you do in this world is a matter of no oonsequence," returned my companion, bitterly. "The question is, what can you make people believe that you have done? Never min4," ho continued, more brightly, after a pause,"I would not have missed the investigation for anything. There has been no better ease within my recollection. Simple as it was, there wore several most instructive points about it." "Simple!" I ejaculated. "Well, really, it can hardly be described as otherwise," said Sherlock Holmes, smiling at my surprise. "The proof of its intrinslo simplicity is that without any help, save a few very ordinary deductions, I was able to lay my hand npon the criminal within three days." "That is true." said "1 have already explained to you that what is out of the common Is usually a guide rather than a hindrance. In solving a problem of this sort, the grand thing is to be able to reason backward. That Is a very use-* ful accomplishment and a very easy one, but people do not practice it much. In the everyday affairs of life it is more useful to reason forward, and so the other comes to be neglected. There are fifty who can reason synthetically for one who can reason analytically." "I confess," said I, "that I do not quite follow you." "I hardly expected that you would.
Let me see if 1 can make it clear. Most people, if you describe a train of events to them, will tell you what the result would be. They can put those events together In their minds, and argue from them that something will come to pass. There are few people, however, who, if you told them a resnlt, would be able to evolve from their own Inner consciousness what the steps were which led up to that result. This power is what I mean when I talk of reasoning backward, or analytically." "I understand," said I. "Now, this was a case in which you were given the result and had to find everything else for yourself. Now, let me endeavor to show you the different steps in my reasoning. To begin at the beginning: I approaohed the house, as you know, on foot, and with my mind entirely free from all impressions. I naturally began by examining the roadway, and there, as I have already explained to you, I saw clearly the marks of a cab, which, I ascertained by Inquiry, must have been there during the night. I satisfied myself that it was a cab and not a private carriage by the narrow gauge of the wheels. The ordinary London growler is considerably less wide than a gentleman's brougham. "This was the first point gained. then walked slowly down the garden path, which happened to be composed of a clay soil, peculiarly suitable for taking impressions. No doubt it appeared to you to be a mere trampled line of slush, but to my trained eyes every mark upon Its surface bad a meaning. There is no branch of detective soience which is so important and so much neglected as the art of tracing footsteps. Happily, 1 have always laid great stress upon it, and much praotioe has made it second nature to me. I saw the heavy footmarks of the oonstables, but I saw also the tracks of the two men who had first passed through the garden It was easy to toll that they had been before the others, because in places their marks had been entirely obliterated by the others coming upon the top of them. In this way my second link was formed, which told mo that the nocturnal visitors were two in number, one remarkable for his height (as I calculated from the length of his stride) and the other fashionably dressed, to judge from the small and elegant impression left by his boots. "On entering tho house this last inference was confirmed. My well-booted man lay before me. The tall one, then, had done the murder, if jjurder there was. There was no wound upon the dead man's person, but the agitated expression upon hlB face assured me that he had foreseen his fate before it came upon him. Men who die from heart disease or any sudden natural cause never by any chance exhibit agitation upon their features. Having sniffed the dead man'B lips, 1 detected a slightly sour smell, and I came to the conclusion that he had had poison forced upon him. Again I argued that it had been forced upon him, from the hatred and fear expressed upon his face. By the method of exclusion I had arrived at this result, for no other hypothesis would meat the facts. Do not imagine that It was a very unheard-of idea.
The forcible administration of poison la by no means anew thing in criminal annals. The cases of Dolsky, in Odes sa^and of Leturler, in Montpelier,

A NARROW ESCAPE!
How it Happened.
The following remarkable event In a lfldy» life will Interest the reader: "For* long time 1 had a terrible pain at my hoart, which fluttered almost Incessantly. I had no appetite and could npt sleep. I would be compelled to sit up in bed and belch gas from my stomach until I thought every minute would be my last. There was a feollng of oppression about my heart, and I was afraid to draw a full breatUtil couldn't sweep a room without sitting down and resting but, thank God, by the help of Mow Heart Oure all thai is past and I feel like another woman. Bofore using the New Heart Cure I had taken different so-called remedies and been treated by doctors without any benefit until I was both discouraged and disgusted. My husband bought me a bottle of Dr. Miles' new Heart Cure, and am happy to say I never regretted It, as 1 now have a splendid appetite and sleep well. I weighed 125 pounds when I be-
fts
an taking the remedy, and now I weigh 130%. effect In my case has been truly marvelous. It far surpasses any other medicine I have ever taken or any benefit I ever rereived from physicians."—Mrs. Harry Starr, Pottsville, Pa., October 12,1988.

will occur "at once to any toxlcologist. "And now came the great question as to the reason why. Robbery had not been the object of the murder, for nothing was taken. Was it politics, then, or was it a woman? That was the question which confronted me. I was inclined from the first to tho latter supposition. Political assassins are only too glad to do their work and to fly. This murder had, on the contrary, been done most deliberately, and the perpetrator had left his traokB all over the room, showing that he had been there all the time. It must have been a private wrong, and not a political one, which called for such a methodical revenge. When the inscription was discovered upon the wall I was more Inclined than ever to my opinion. The thing was too evidently a blind. When the ring was found, however, it settled the question. Clearly the murderer had used It to remind his victim of some dead or ab•ent woman. It was at this point that I asked Gregson whether he had inquired in his telegram to Cleveland as to any particular point in Mr. Drabber's former career. He answered, you remember, in the negative.

What Will Do It I
Medical writers claim that the successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irritating, easy of application, and one that will reach the remote sores and ulcerated surfaces. The history of the efforts to treat catarrh is proof positive that only one remedy has completely met these conditions, and that is Ely's Cream Balm. This safe and pleasant remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing else has ever done, and both physicians and patients freely concede this fact. Our druggists keep it.

ABOUT a year ago I took a violent attack of la grippe. I coughed day and nightifor about six weeks my wife then suggested that I try Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. At first I could see no difference, but still kept taking it, and soon found that it was what I needed. If 1 got no relief from one dose I took another, and it was only a few days until I was free from the cough. 1 think pieople in general ought to know the value of this remedy, and I take pleasure in acknowledging the benefit I have received from it.

Every experienced nurse knows the value of a remedy which, without being an anodyne, will relieve soreness of the limbs or stiffness of the joints, and enable a patient to sleep quietly and naturally.
Just such a remedy are Allcock's Porous Plasters. Placed on the chest or on the back, if necessary cut into strips and placed over the muscles of the limbs, they work marvels in the way of soothing and quieting restlessness. Being perfectly simple and harmless in their composition, they can be used freely, and many a sufferer has thanked them for a night of quiet rest, grateful both to him and those who care for him.
