Y*o "cap of maintenance'* ta bene before English sovereigns at their mi* •natten. It is made of ermine and has two tails or pendants behind. Several dignitaries in England and a number of nobles also have the right to carry a cap of maintenance on state occasions. When hat making was Introduced Into America is not certainly known, but in 1782 the Industry had became so extensive that English hat makers complained bitterly that not only could they not »<l their hate in America, but that American hats were actually sold tn England.

3,400 mill operatives, at Bidde ford, Maine, Monday hst went out on a strike against the reduction of wages. At New Bedford, Mass., on the sameday, the mill operatives, numbering about ten thousand, went out for the same reason. Practically all of the spindles and looms iu the city are idle, while the operatives throng the sidewalks in the bitter zero weather.

“HOW MUCH?” Senator Chandler is a good iepubhean, but he has no love for Hanna nor tor Hunna’s especial brand of republican doctrine. After Hanna’s great victory at Columbus be received a Urge number of conp ratulations by telegraph. Among them, it is aK leged, was the following: “M. A. Hanns, Columbus. Ohio: 1 co gratulate you on this at st victory for sound money. How much? William E. Chandler. There can be no doubt that “sound money” won the sen a tor n ship for Mark Hanna, and if sen at:r Chan' ler seat the telegram allegeu to have bee a sent, his cu* riosity to know ”h >w much” is natural and eatirely jusiifiable. But Ha»»na has not answered that question.

The new Democratic State committee met at Indianapolis Tuesday and organized by electing Parks M. Martin, of Spencer, chair* man, and authorizing him to apo point a secret ry and an executive committee. The members of the new coma mittee were all present. It is made up as follows: First District--John W. Spencer, Evansville. Second—Parks M.Martin, Spencer. • Thi d—-W. A. Cox, | J asp er Fourth.. Lincoln Dixon. North Vernon. Fifth—Frank A. Dorner, Brazil. Sixth—Quit. 8. Jackson, Green*, field Seventh—Thomas Taggart, In dianapolis. Eighth—Vernon Lavis, Muncie Ninth— Willard H. Barns, Clinton. Tenth—Edwin J. Forrest, Ham-, mond Eleventh—M. G. Shively, Marion Twelfth.. Thomas Marshall, Ft. Wayne. Thirteenth. .Peter J. Kru ;er, Plymouth. . Chairman Martin said that in ’96 the situation was such as to de matd fus on with the Populists, he is opposed to". ny|agreements from this time on. He believes the party ought to welcome votes from all directions, but not at the price of accessions..they she'd come without a demand for some thing in return for theii support. We believed then, and we believe now, the Democracy would have, carried] Ind’a had there been no fusion. While we received a number of Populist votes, a larger number of that tarty voted for republican candidate as an act of retaliation for the bargain and sale brought about. It was strongly in evidence that the would-be leaders might enter into an agreement but they could not “driver t e goods,” and the republican cor, ruption fund had much ‘o do in keeping in ‘‘the middle of the road” a large number. It is gratifying to know that the prevailing sentiment injthe committee was opposed to seeking sup* port from any quarter by barters ing away offices. The consideration of the subject was brought about by the announcement that in some of the counties the Populists are demanding in return tor their votes the lion’s share of the local offices, and also places for Populists on the State ticket. Jn this county the Populists demand: A democratic paper to advocate one solitary : lark. .*‘the free and unlimited coinage of e lver.” Not desirng to train under an old-line democratic p. per, they demand a new editor and paper to play upon that one string. They demand that a senator and representative be nominated who will be pledged, if elected to set

aside the very able, true and tried Senator Turpie, and support for U. 8. Senator a democrat to * e des. igated by them. These very reasonable (?) sag. gestions would be very cheerfully accepted bo doubt by the worthy deme cratic chairman if he cou'd deliver the goods In sentiment he is in-full sympathy with them. The number of cotton mill opeiatives on a strike in tbe New England states is constantly increasing. The bribero investigation of tbe methods employed in the election of Hanna is now on, and it is said here ta some very damagir g testimony before the legislative committee. It is supposed that Richard Croker aspires to be the of the democratic party. There is uo such position within our organization . .na'ion al, state, district or county.

The Bad Breath of Royalty.

Buropeaa royalty is cursed with «» •crable teeth, the result of conzanguln•ous marriages throughout countless generations, and Sven the princes at the reigning house of Sweden, who are of plebeian origin, the grandfather of the present King having been born as a peasant at Pau, on the French slope of the Pyrennes, suffer from bad teeth, necessltailng much science and •ktU in treatment m to only natural, therefore, that they should have fr»quent resource to dentists, and, inasmuch as dental surgery has .attained a greater degree of science and proficiency in the United States than in Europe, it is American doctors os a rule who have been Intrusted with the wek fare of royalty’s Jaws. < Reared among republican surroundtags and imbibed with that essentially American conviction that all men are made of the same day, no matter whether king or peasant their independence of manner always presented an agreeable and refreshing contrast to the obsequiousness and flattery of native courtiers, and it is to this in particular that must be attributed the remarkable Influence acquired at several of the European courts by these American dentists. They were trusted not only with royal teeth, but also with many a royal secret, and they, in several eases, have acquired an Immenw amount of influence.—Chicago Record.

Common Errors in Speech.

The verb to get is one of our much misused words; it means to acquire, win, obtain; and, primarily, ft signifies the putting forth of effort to attain something. Consequently his not only superfluous, but incorrect, to speak of a man as “getting drowned' or “getting <ck;” and you may, unfortunately, "have a cold,*' biA it is Imposdhle that you “have got a cold.” At this moment no exceptions occur to the writer to the tule that got should never be used in eonnection with have, which alone suftqlontly expresses possession. Say “1 have the picture," not “I have got the picture;” “The dog has a broken leg,” Sot “The dog has got a broken leg.” The Irregular verbs lay and lie are frequently confounded. Lay Is an active or transitive verb, and He Is passive or htransltlvtf. We lay things down or lave laid them down; but we and things de at fest. You lie down, have lain down, will He down, or are lying down; she lay down yesterday and ie going to lie down this afternoon. A frequent error is to confound the past tenses of these verbs. One should say, “Mary laid the bonk on the table, and lay down herself;” but the book lies <xn the table Magaclne. Dishes Made from Rabbits' Hair.

HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty four hours; a sediment or settling indicates a diseased condition of Ihe kidneys. When urine stains ■men it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of ordei. WHAT TO DO, < There is comfort in the knowl* edge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, livtT, bladder'and every part of the urinery passages. It or* recta inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effect following use of liquor, wine or beer,' and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being com* pel ed to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp*Root is soon realized It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need, r medicine you should have the best.
