A Place For Your Hay, Farmers*

A special from New York to the Cincinnati Enquirer says: '-General Adam E. King, late Consul-General to Paris, arrived here to-day on the La Tourtue. He said that little interest was shown in Prance over the repeal of the Sherman Silver act. Said he: "France has had an unfortunate forage drought. Hay sells at most exorbiant prices. I have no doubt that American farmers can dispose of a hundred million dollars' worth of forage in France and other foreign countries at their own price. In many quarters cattle are being killed by the wholesale because their owners cannot afford to purchase sufficient food for them. Now is the time for the American farmer to realize on all the forage he has. I understand that largo quantities have already been shipped abroad."

If some grocers urge another baking powder upon you in place of the Royal," it is because of the greater profit upon it. This of itself is evidence of the superiority of the "Royal." To give greater profit the other must be a lower cost powder, and to cost less it must be made with cheaper and inferior materials, and thus, though selling for the same, give less value to the consumer.

To insure the finest cake, the most' wholesome food, be sure that no substitute for Royal Baking Powder is accepted by you.

Nothing can be substituted for the Royal Baking Powder and give as good results.

It resembled in brightness a great comet, for which it was mistook by many persons.

Vuble ta 8*care rand* Krvn with th* Beat of Security—Claim th* Depositors Will Qet Their Money.

DENVER, Cola, July 18.—The first bank failure in Denver since 1874 occurred yesterday morning, when the Rocky Mountain Dim.: and Dollar Savings banks cloud their doors. An estimate of the assets of the People's Savings bank is 81,300,000, with liabilities at $1,350,000.

The Colorado savings bank, of which F. K. Atkins is president and C. O. Atkins cashier, in their statement to the assignee, Alfred Butters, place the open accounts due depositors at $435,108 certificates of deposit, 150,699 due other banks, $3,S3« cashier's checks, $835. Their assets over liabilities in what is declared to be good commercial paper, well secured, is $73,063.

F. M. Woodbury, is president and F. Clark cashier of the Rocky Mountain Dime and Dollar savings bank of which Charles H. Blakeney was yesterday morning made assignee. From the books of the institution it would appear that the assets are

$100,-

o03 and the liabilities $105,(J51. The officers of the institution positively assert that the depositors will not lose a dollar.

It is understood that all the assignments were preconcerted and made for self-protection and for the protection of the depositors. The direct cause of the failures was the universal hard times and inability to realize on securities. The president of each bank declares that each depositor will be paid in full and that the institutions will resume again. A run on the Denver savings bank is impending. The bank is taking advantage of thirty and sixty days' notification law and is paying out no amounts over 825. "Most persistent efforts were made to obtain temporary assistance to tide the bank over," said Mr. Lawrence, "and up to four days ago this necessary assistance was promised by eastern correspondent banks, but since the doings of the recent convention in this city became known all over the oountry these promises were canceled by telegraph and no alternative wti left us—with notices amounting to nearly $500,000 for withdrawals of deposits maturing within the near future staring us in the face, and the caBh in hand paid down to $283—but to make a full assignment for th* protection and benefit af all."

The failure of the savings banks will in no way effect the People's National bank, which with all other national banks are perfectly sound.

TWO MOKE BANKS FAIL.

The Grand Avenue and Missouri National at Kansas City Suspend Farment

KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 18.—The Bank of Grand Avenue and the Missouri National bank suspended payment to day.

When the Bank of Qrand Avenue opened its doors for business this morning along line of depositors had lormed on the sidewalk, and as soon as the paying-teller appeared at the window they began drawing oht their money. The run kept up until nearly noon, when the bank was forced to assign to John James RuckeL The assets are said to be 8200,000. The bank cleared through the National bank of Kansas City and it is alleged lost considerable money in that institution.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July la.—A posse has been searching since Saturday night in and around Brierfield for a negro who, it is reported shot and killed two women near Brierfleld.

Good rains have fallen in the central counties of the western half of the state and in the extreme northwester^ counties, while the central counties of the east half have generally received little or none.

KANSAS CITY, MO., July 18.—The World's Fair excursions under the new system adopted by the Western Passenger association were inaugurated to-day- Their lack of popularity may be judged from the fact that only fifty new system excursion tickets were sold by all the seven Chicago roads, averaging about seven passengers to each road.

A spell of sickness

is due when the system's weakened, and the blood impure. It's what you must expect.

But it's what you must prevent, too. And Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery prevents as well as cures. It invigorates the liver and kidneys, purifies and enriches the blood, sharpens the appetite, improves digestion, and restores health and strength. For Dyspepsia, "Liver Complaint," and every form of Scrofulous, Skin, or Scalp Diseases, as Salt-rheum, Tetter, Erysipelas, or any blood-taint, it'B an unequaled remedy.

It's not like the sarsaparillas, which claim to be good for the blood in March, April and May. At all seasons alike, and in all cases, the "Discovery" alone is guaranteed. If it doesn't benefit or cure, you have your money back.

It's the cheapest blood-purifier, no matter how many doses are offered for a dollar, for you pay only for the good you get. But it's the beat, or it oouldn't be sold so.

•NOLISH OOAL MINEAS LIKELY TO QUIT WORK

of aea^rao Men Bfeet

ae Birmingham nd Protest Ag*HM a Proposed Reduction of 86 Pec Cent la Wage*.

LOWDOK, July 20.—Delegates re pro •anting 348,000 coal miners in various parte of the country met in Birmingham yesterday to consider the pcopoeal of the mine owners to reduee wages 35 per cent, the out to go into effect on July 38*. As was to be expected, there was a wide .divergence of views as to the course to be. followed, but after a somewhat lengthjr and heated debate a resolution was adopted declaring that the conference was opposed to the reduction.

Delegates representing about 198,000 miners supported the resolution while the representatives of about 50,000 miners voted against it. The delegates representing the miners at Northumberland and Durham, who have only recently joined the Miners' federation, and the representatives from Cleveland, Cumberland and some other districts tha.t are not affected by the reduotlon. urged that arbitration should be resorted to to settle the dispute. They argvie that between 25 per cent and nothing there is a wida margin for compromise, and the Durham miners, with the sufferings caused by the recent long strike In that distriot still fresh in their minds, are not at all eager to be drawn into another contest with the mine-owners,

No decision was reached on the question of a strike if the mine-owners persist in their intention to make a reduction, but decisive action will probably be taken before the conference adjourns. The general opinion is that the Miners' federation will order a strike and the market for coal has already responded to the fear that the oOal supply will soon be shortened. Prices show a considerable advance and many factory and mill owners have already laid in large supplies. The strike, should one occur, will be the largest movement of the kind that has ever taken place in the united kingdom.
