So many Indiana towns are now talking of a boom that it is going to be bard to tell which makes the most noise. The 3-year-old son of William Cornell, residing at Transitville, fell into a tub of boiling water and was scalded to death. A well at Yorktown that produced mineral water at a depth of 200 feet turned out to be a gas well on reaching 900 feet.

Two tramps, one drunk and one sober, terrorized the women and committed a burglary at Rockville. One, who says ho was born in Philadelphia and gave bis name as Frank Bills, broke into Lincoln Wimmer’s house and helped himself to an overcoat and suit of clothes. The Marshal captured Bills in a running fight, knocking him down twice. The late frosts seem to have done the fruit in the southern part of the State good Instead of damage, and saved the growers a good deal of labor by thinning out the crop. Last year fruit was not as good as it might have been, owing to the immense quantity. This year it is believed by the present indications, that peaches, apples, pears, etc., will be larger and of much finer quality, and that there will not be much less fruit, because, as the trees are not heavily loaded the fruit will be much larger than the crowded state of. trees wonld permit last year. The fruit-growers are very well pleased with the outlook and believe that there -will be as much money in their crops this year as last, if not more. ; ,’” K ' 'VA'C • ‘ ••

THE SENATE AND HOUSEWORK OF OUR NATIONAL LAWMAKERS. Proceedings of the Senate and House of Representatives — Important Measures Discussed and Acted Upon—Olet ot the Business. Tho National Rolons. , On tho 10th, after passing several resolutions for printing various government reports, including the thirteenth unnurl report of the geological survey, tho last reports of the fl-h commission and of tiie bureau of animal Industry, the House proceeded with the sundry civil appropriation, Mr. Cogswell, of Massachseutts, opposing tho policy of the committee in neglecting to make proper provision for certain public works, notsnly public buildings and lighthouses, while Mr. Wilson of Washington, Mr. Sweet of Idaho, Mr. Clark ot Wyoming, and Mr. Hermann of Oregon all spoke In favor of larger appropriations for surveying the public lands. Mr. Enloe. Tennessee, criticised tbe coast and geodetic survey, and Mr. Dlngley, of Maine, closed the debate in a general criticism of tho Committee on Appropriations for the duplicity displayed In the pending bllL The House then adjourned. In the Senate, a bill was passed changing the boundaries of the Yellowstone National Park. Four bills for thia purpose have been pending In tho Senate, and the measure passed is a sort of compromise. In the House, the 11th, the appropriation of 8620,000 for the purchase of a site and commencement ot a new building for a new mint at Philadelphia was struck from the sundry civil bill. This was done upon motion of Mr. Holman. The Vice President, having gone to New York to act as pallbearer at the funeral of the late Mr. Astor, his cbalr was occupied by Mr. Manderson, President pro tem., who laid before the Senate the resolution of the general conference of the Methodist. Episcopal Church assembled at Omaha, Nob. (representing 2,500,000 members and 10,009,000 adherents), heartily approving the World’s Fair appropriation bill, -providing expressly that it be conditioned on closing the Ex? position on Sunday.” The following bills were passed: House bill to provide for a term of the United States - Circuit and District Court at Evanston, Ma House bill authorizing the construction of a wagen and motor bridge over the Missouri River at St. Charles, Mo. Appropriating SIOO,OOO for a public building at Pierre. S. D. The presiding officer laid before the Senate a message from the President of the United States transmitting the seventh annual report of the Commissioner of Labor. After an executive session the Senate adjourned. In the House, the 12th, a resolution fortne investigation of the Pinkerton agency was adopted after a sharp debate, the conference report on the bill for the sale of the Klamath River Indian Reservation was also adopted. The House then went into committee of the whole (Mr. Laster of Georgia in the chair) on the sundry civil appropriation bill. Among the bills Introduced in the Senate and referred were the following: Authorizing the President to proclaim a general holiday, commemorating the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America, Oct 12. 1892: to encourage American shipbuilding, extending to the steamship China the same privileges as have been extended to the City ot Paris and City of New York. The China is a steamship of 5,000 tons, built in Glasgow in 1889. She plies between San Francisco and China, on the Mail line, but flies the British flag. The message of the President on the subject of an international conference on bimetallsm and the naval appropriation bill consumed the rest of the time In the Senate, the 13th, the river and harbor bill was reported back from the Committee on Commerce with amendments. The consideration of the naval bill was resumed. Mr. McPherson effered an amendment appropriating $250,000 toward the construction of a dry dock at Algiers, Louisiana. It was rejected. Mr. McPherson, from the Naval Committee, offered an amendment to the Senate amendment providing for three harbor defense double turret ships of the monitor type —lnstead of one ship. Mr. Gorman spoke at length on lines of economy, but not against enlarging the navy. After further debate and without action on Mr. McPherson’s amendment the Senate adjourned. In the House, the Sibley tent claim bill again came to the fore on a report from the committee of the whole referring the claim to the Court of Claims for final adjudication. To this substitute there was pending an amendment providing that the reference should be merely for inquiry, and report to Congress The amendment was lost • On the Diamond.

Bacteria. Bacteria have their name from their rod-like shape. They are vegetation so minute as to be visible oply by the aid of powerful microscopes. They multiply by division, each rod separating into two parts. Then each part upeedily becomes a complete whole, but soon divides into two parts. It will be seen what countless numbers must result. The view has been extensively adopted that these microscopic vegetations are the actual poison that produces most infectious diseases. Prof. Lionel Beale, F. R. 8., knighted for his attainmentß in microscopy and medicine, is not prepared to accept this. We present a condensed statement of his views. The tongue is constantly covered by whole forests of bacteria. Millions pass into the stomach whenever we swallow. It is the same with all animals. Every vegetable and fruit and leaf also contains countless numbers. So does the air we breathe and the water we drink. All disintegration And decay facilitates the growth of this minute vegetation. It is certain now, that bacteria in large Suantities are constantly passing into je alimentary canal of men and animals without doing harm. There is probably not a part of the body of any one of us, one-quarter of an inch in diameter, where their germs are not present. So small are they that they pass freely into the substance of every organ. They exist within us, even in the blood, without disturbing us in any way. In disease their numbers are vastly increased. “I have seen every part of the stomach, the small and large intestines, filled with curdled milk which, when placed under the microscope, seemed to be almost composed of bacteria. But this probably did not originate the disorder, bht resulted from the prior diseased state of the secretions. It is still an open question whether infectious diseases originate from some special kind of death-carrying bacteria; or from practices wholly independent of all such organisms. Though some evidence has been adduced in favor of the first hypothesis, many new facts must be discovered before the problem is solved.” The Secret ot True Kecreatlon. Minds, like other measures of capacity, when they are full cannot be any fuller of that which they are full of. One more drop of water will cause the brimful glass to overflow. But that same brimful glass mav have* packed into it more than its bulk ot loose raw cotton without spilling the water. Similarly, one mav have his mind so full of one flow of thought, or care, that one drop more would be disastrous; but a wholly different kind of thought can, like the raw cotton, be packed into It without seemingly making it any fuller. This is one of the secrets of accomplishment It includes the secret of true recreation.

Having read of your remedies I at last made up my mind to try them. I had very little faith, for I thought, perhaps, they were no better than lots of others that I had used before without any benefit. But thanks be to God aud also to you, I tried them and found it to my benefit. I only took two bottles of your Swamp-Boot and one of Female Bernedy and used one bottle of your U. <fc 0.

A PROFITABLE TALK. OUR SPECIAL REPORTER SECURES THE FACTS. He Determined to Thoroughly Investigate a Subject That Is Causing Much Comment, and He Has Succeeded. [New York Sun.] Two days ago one ot the most prominent professional men in New York pub ished a letter so outepoken, so unusual as to cause extensive talk and awaken much comment. Ye.terday 1 inter visaed the gentleman as to the coutenUi of the letter, aud be fully continued it in every respect. He not only did this, but he also mentioned a number ot unusual cases which had come under his observation, in which little less than a miracle bad been performed. So importaut Las tbe entire subject become that I determined to investigate it to the bottom, and, accordingly, called upon Mr. Albert G. Eaves the prominent costumer, at Na 63 East Twelfth street, the gentleman mentioned in my interview with tbe doctor yesterday. Mr. Eaves has made quite a name. A complete knowledge of history, an appreciation of art and reliability are essential in bls profession. “Mr. Eaves.” I said. “1 learn that your wife has bad a moat unusual experience; are you willing to describe it!” The gentleman thought a moment, and an expression of pleasure passed over his face. “When I think,” he said, “of what my wife once passed through, and the condition she is in to-day, I cannot but feel gratitude. Nearly three years ago she was at the point ot death. You can understand h>w sick she was when I say she was totally blind and lay in a state of unconsciousness. Three doctors attended her, and all agreed that her death, was only a question of hours, perhaps minutes" “May I ask what the doctors called her trouble?” “Ura*mla and puerperal convulsions, so you can imagine bo < badly sbe must have been. At last one doctor (it was Dr. R. A. Gunn) said that as she was still able to swallow one more attempt might be made, and a medicine was accordingly given her. She seemed to Improve at once; in a few days her sight was restored. ‘I have had a long, long sleep,’ she said, upon recovering consciousness, and 1 gm rejoiced to say that she was restored to perfect health wholly through the use of Warner’s Safe Cure, which was the remedy we administered when she was past all consciousness.” I looked at Mr. Eaves as he said this. His face was beaming with satisfaction. Ha continued: “The physicians told us, after my wife’s recovery, that she never could endure childbirth, and yet we have a fine boy nearly a year old, and do not know what sickness is. I attribute it all to the wonderful power of Warner’s Safe Cure. Why, my sister, who resides in Virginia, was, a while ago, afflicted precisely as my wife had been. I at once advised her to use this same great remedy: it cured her promptly.” “You find that it is specially adapted for women, dojou?” I inquired. “By no means. I have known it to be wonderful in its power in the case of gentlemen to whom I have recommended it I speak from my experience entirely, and you should not be surprised that I am so flrm a believer In this discovery, which has done so much for ma ” I was not suprlsed. I saw by every word, by every look, that Mr. Eaves meant all he said. I had ample confirmation of Dr. Gunn's letter and interview, and I do not wonder that people who have seen such things, who have watched their dearest friends go down into the dark valley and be brought back Into the light, should be both enthusiastic and grateful. I myself caught the spirit, and I shall be glad if the Investigations I have made prove of profit to those who may read them. From Small Beginnings. A gentleman once tried the experiment of raising a harvest from a single seed. He put a pickle ot wheat into the ground: it sprang up and yielded two full ears. The next year he planted the corn of these two ears, and bad, as the result, nearly a busael of shelled corn. This he planted again, and broad acres of large yellow ears at length rewarded his patient toil. One ol the commonest kinds of wheat now is what is called "mummy-wheat” It all sprang from a few grains of wheat that were found in the hand bf an Egyptian mummy. The reproductive power of sin is not less than this. One lie or act of deceit pro duces fifty or 100. You sow an evil deed, and it is almost impossible to calculate the amount of wiclfedness and misery that will grow out of it To Slay or to Be Slain. Which? To attack the dragon of disease and annihilate him before his deadly talons grow, or to allow him to attain dangerous maturity and destroy us—that is the question of paramount importance to all afflicted with organic ailments. Among these, disorders of the kidneys and bladder are of the fatal order If unrestrained at the outset. Their growth is rapid, their culmination death. Bright's disease, ordinary nephritis, diabetes, oatarrh of the bladder, gravel, suppression of the secretion, cannot be tampered with or disregarded safely. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a superb depuraUve tonic, giving the due impulse, without excitation, to the renal organa, besides strengthening and regulating them in common with the rest of the system. It infuses, too, vigor and regularity into ihe stomach, bowels and liver, successfully counteracts malaria and rheumatism, and is a pre-eminently flue tonic for the aged, the enfeebled and the conva.eseent. What Are Sun Dogs? The term is applied to that variety of halo in which there is a luminous spot, or the image of the sun, beside it Generally there are two, three, or four of t these seen at once. They are sometimes called parhelia, or mock-suns. They are only seen when the sky is covered with those highest thread-like forms of clouds known -as cirrus or cirro-stratus. These clouds are composed of fine particles of ice, and the phenomena of sun-dogs is due to the Refraction of the sunlight passing through the clouds.
