CAMP RELIEF DISBANDED.

Wire Hundred Unemployed Men Thrown Onto Denver's Charity. Dexyek,Aug.

0.—Camp lN-iief,which

Las been operated by the state for the ^support of the'idle and hungry men of the city, was disbanded this morning and 500 men who have been receiving food at the camp were thrown upon the city, in addition to the hundreds of others already being fed by the charitable organizations. There were many muttered threats to-day among the men, most of whom are workingmen, and under ordinary circumstances lawabiding citizens, but with starvation staring them in the face they are sullen and show a disposition to become desperate unless some means of continuing the supply of food is adopted immediatelv- The charity organizations of the city are already greatly overtaxed in caring for'lie suffering women and children of the city, and •what to do with the lar^e number of idle and hungry men is a grave question rrith the authorities.

Springs Under the Hathllng. Omaha,

new

Neb., Aug. !.—It has been,

discovered that there are many'springs of water under the foundation of the

government building in Omaha. A great stream of water is pouring out from it, necessitating sewer connections. Although this is a dry season the flow has continued for months. It has always been claimed that this water was surface water arising from rains, but Supervising Architect Latenser was compelled to acknowledge the nresence.of springs. These render any great buildings absolutely unsafe, and there is great perplexity among government officials over the matter. The site will probably be changed.

Disease Killing Many Animals. ALBION, 111.,

Aug. 9.—An important

meeting of the state live stock commission and the state veterinarian was held yesterday afternoon at Scott's Station to discuss the malady which is causing the death of hundreds of domestic animals in that region. Dr. Trumborn, the veterinarian, declared the disease to be malignant anthrax, a disease which is regarded as absolutely incurable. As preventive measures it -was advised that all carcaBses be immediately burned and exposed animals removed to uplands, protected from (he flies and riven pure water.

IMPORTS OF COLD COMMERCE.

Dun's Review of the Commercial Situation—Fnllnreg of th« Week. New York,

Jul}'

29.—R.

G. Dunn &

Co.'s review of trade says: "The hardest week yet has left the business world still able to rejoice iu the soundness and strength disclosed. No banks here or at other eastern cities and no eastern firms of large importance have gone down, but numerous banks failed at the west including some of high repute and large business. But through all the strain the banks of New lorn have passed without trouble, and imports of gold have com menced.

From SI,OOd,(00 to £2,000,000 in money has been sent west every dav and a large decrease in bank reserves is expected, as the treasury has not been disbursing heavily. Few commercial loans have been negotiated, and at high rates. In other cities the money markets have been auite close. "Chicago has drawn heavily on New York, but in that and other cities bank statements indicate creditable soundness. Grain rose briskly on

Monday, but all speculative markets yielded a little when tight money came and the slaughter of stocks. Wheat closed about cent lower, though western receipts were moderate. "Failures during the last week num ber 3b0 in the United States against 181 last year and 23 in Canada against 22 last year. It is noteworthy that only three failures were of capital above 5200,000 each and only ninety nine of capital over S"),ou0. Over fifty banks stopped during the week but nearly all were at the west.

Rates for the Veterans.

In .napoi.is,

Ind., Aug. 9.—The

citizens' committee in charge of the arrangements for the national Grand Army of the Republic encampment still believes that it will be able to get greater concessions from the railroads. Information was received yesterday that several railroads leading to the west and northwest are willing to grant stop-overs for Chicago. Under the arrangement as it now stands the roads will sell tickets to Indianapolis from any point in the United States at the rate of 1 cent a mile. There is to be a stipulation on the ticket, however, that the holder shall not stop at Chicago.

Dry weather is the complaint. There is more meaning|in that to the farmer than all the manipulations of the manipulators of the republican politicians. The cry of "want of {confidence" is a humbug.

It

is time now that our town, like ail business men, should call a halt in paying out money only for necessities. Let all work and economise and we will soon get over this crash brought on us by over speculation and class legislation.

The democrats|have preached for fifteen years thatjthe republican financial schemes woiHd come to grief, and hard times as a necessity, follow. It is rule or ruin with the republican party, and they are now trying to ruin, as the people will not let them rule again very eoon.

Indiana Weather Orop Eeport. The drouth continued unbroken during the past week except in the southern portion of the State where heavy local showers were of much benefit to the growing crops. That section of the State has been favored with beneficial rains during the entire season, and potatoes, corn and tobacco are in better condition than in the other sections in some sections of northern ludiana the drought is the severest ever, known so early in the season the precipitation at Indianapolis. 0.83 inches, is the lowest ever recorded except in 1SS1 when the rainfall measured 0.82 incties reports from central and northern Indiana are extremely unfavorable the corn crop will be short everywhere, and in many sections it will be almost an entire failure pastures are so dry that farmers are being compelled to feed their cattle plowing for fall wheat will be delayed as the ground breaks up in immense clods potato bugs and drouth have almost ruined late potatoes in many counties, all fruit is extremely scarce, and many trees set during the fall and the spring of the year have succumbed to the drouth the melon crop which is now on the market, is large and fine.

Death of Oarroll "Xounc-

Tuesday morning Carroll Young, who lives in the old tollgate house ou the Indianapolis road, came to the city to deliver some eggs. When in front of the residence of Arch Austin he wa6 striken with appolexy and fell senseless on the sidewalk. Medical aid was summoned and he was carreid to his home where he lingered until ten o'clock Wednesdaylmorning never regaining consciousness. Mr. "ioung was i5yearsof age and was one of the county early settlers.I IHe |was a sterling democrat andjai: honorable, conscientious, christianjman. He was known far and wide and held the love and respect of ail. The funeral occurred from his home Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. Interment at Oak Hill cemetery.

Lyda's Lamentations.

Mrs. Lyda Starke sort of stimulated the court docket

thiB

week by filing

suit for divorce from her husband William Starke. In her complaint Lyda alleges that she and Bill were married away back in 1871 and if what she says is true he has given her twenty-two years of the rockiest traveling any woman ever tackled. She says that he cursed her, struck her, choked her and almost starved her to death, and that at one time threatened te cut out her intestines with a butcher knife. Bill is certainly a bad man and we don't blame Lyda for wanting to get rid of him.

The Indiana Oollectorship. A special to the Indianapolis Journal from Washington, says: "It is expected that the nominations of Indiana's two collectors of internal revenue will go to the Senate within a few days, among the firstjnominations made by the President. Representative Brookshire is confident that Joshua Jump, of Terre Haute, will not get the place in that district, and that it will go to Mr. Hulett, of Crawfordsville. It seems pretty well settled that Capt. William Bracken, of

Brookville, will get the other collectorship.

On next Sunday there will be a grand singing contest at the Shades of Death There will be numerous glee clubs and soloists from over the State and a grand time is expected.

World's Fair contests. Suitable prizes will be offered and a grand time is enpected.

Marion Gets Another DoseOn last Saturday Marion McGuffiu of New Ross, finished his old stone pile contract with the city. He was at once rearrested and taken before Juctise Chumasero to answer to the charge of assaulting Jere Carver, keeper of the quarry, some weeks ago. He was fined $25 and costs, which will keep him busy thumping stone for about forty days.

Jealous Contentiont

have resulted in misery the world over. People who are well disposed and not bound by self-interest, are willing to accord credit wherever merited and due. Civilization is gradually bringing the human race up to this elevation, and in exact proportion is Dr. Fenner'a Kidney and Backache Cure coming to be recognized as the correct and stand* ard remedy in all kidne}', female, and blood diseases—being able to cure them readily. It is specific in all skin eruptions, erysipelas, scrofula, dyspepsia, headaches, dullness, listlessness, constipation, etc. Sold by dealers on guaranty for many years. Therefore don't cost much to try it. Take home a bottle to-day.
