It may look that way to a man in Indianapolis but over here the campaign is not enthused to the personal pitch. From reading the Indianapolis papers one would imagine the election was tomorrow. But no doubt all of us will be in the heat of it before long.

This is an oil' year in polities, but it is well enough to plant, it in our memory that uuder the new apportionment the electoral college will contain 411 votes, instead of 300, and it will require 206 to elect, instead of 185, as heretofore. Besides the solid south, the Democrats of the north must skirmish up (58 votes to elect their President.

The Indianapolis Sentinel is making much noise over the fact that Congressman Peelle voted for the duty on the trace chain. If it hopes to help young Will English to get to Congress it must use something more convincing than'this record. Trace chains in their way are of much strength and serve a good purpose, butin the use put upon them in this instance, they are awkward and ineffectual.

The Indiana Hospital for the Insane now has 1,000 inmates. It has more patients than any other one institution in the United States. This arisea from the fact that other States have more than one institution. The care of the insane, especially the pauper in •sane, is to be a question of much importance to the people of the State. The question of expense is one that is not generally considered in other States.

"Jay Gould's Democratic candidate for Governor of New York," says the Philadelphia Record, "is said to be Mr. Flower. Mr. Gould always has two candidates at least, and sometimes three or four. He isn't particular about their politics, except that they are to be Gould men. His ideas about candidates seem to differ from those of the late Dean Richmond when he presided over the New York Central railroad. Mr. Richmond said it was cheaper to buy the officials after election than before, and he undoubtedly knew the cost as well as anybody."'

Said ex-Senator McDonald in his key-note "There is one particular feature of tills measure to which I desire to especially direct your attention, and that Is, while it makes it unlawful to manufacture or sell, .except for the specific purposes therein named, it does not prohibit the purchase, and use of spirituous and intoxicating liquors indiscriminately no excess in its use, no drunkenness, however gross, Is declared to be unlawful."

In that event, and the Senator is an oracle, why this violent kick against the amendment proposed It secures a Democrat his great American privilege to get drunk.

People Who can't find their way to the seaside may take an interest in knowing what some of their neighbors can command in the way of amusement. As to incomes, Ex-Governor Morgan's is estimated at $500,000 a year. Russell Sage's is rated at $1,000,000 to $1,500,000. while Gould's cannot be less than §6,000,000. To come down to smaller men, R. L. Stewart has nearly $1,000,000 a year, while Robert and Ogden Goeler are each rated at $250,000, Bennett is reckoned at $600,000. D. O. Mills figures at $250,000, and the young Vanderbilts (William K. and Cornelius) are not much below him. The estate of A. T, Stewart & Co., has an income of a million, which renders Cornelia Stewart the richest widow in America. The Astors (John Jacob and William) are estimated each at a million and a half, while William H. Vanderbilt probably has five times that sum.

The Philadelphia Press alludes to Ben Butler as the most useful man in Massachusetts. He may never reach the Governorship of the Bay State, but he will keep running for it, sometimes on one side, sometimes on an other side, and sometimes on all sides^ and the healthy fear of his success keeps the Republican administration of the Government over-plumb on the right side. If a false step were made by the Republicans, Butler would at once constitute himself a political executioner and crucify the party and its candidate, and the Republican leaders and Governor must effect the virtue of honesty and economy, even if they have it jt. Say what you will of. Ben Butler, he is the most useful man in Massachusetts he is the great conservator of Republican authority, and while he lives and moves around, the Republicans must choose between firstclass Republican government and himself, and they don't want Ben Butler by along shot.

The absorbing topic of interest just now in Paris is the Pecoq murder, the perpetrators of which will be brought up for trial soon, at the Seine and Oise Assizes, at Versailles. All the papers devote columns of elaborate histories of the dreadful crime and leading articles moralizing upon it. The case will extend over many days, and will no doubt prove one of the most striking in modern criminal annals. The victim of the tragedy was one Aubert, twenty-nine years of age, a druggist, carrying on business in the boulevard Malesherbes. The accused are Marin Fenayrou, a man of forty, a retired druggist, from whom Aubert learned his business his wife Gabrielle, who is ten years younger, and his brother, a maker of children's toys, who is about thirty-five. Aubert was lured on an evening of May by the woman to a lone cottage at Chatou, in the outskirts of Paris, and there deliberately tortured and ultimately stabbed to the heart by her husband, the brother helping, and the wife holding a candle to enable the murderers to effect their horrid business. The body was stripped, bound tightly round with along piece of flattened lead piping, and finally wheeled it in the dead of night to the nearest river bridge, from which it was thrown into the Seine. The crime is represented as the vengeance of a wronged husband, but it is anticipated that the trial will reveal something more than this.

A professional horse jockey down East has brought a slander suit, claiming damages In the sum of $10,000. He should pool his issues with the St. Louis professional detective who has applied to the courts for a certificate of good character.—[Post Dispatch.

This aforesaid professional jockey was assisted in this suit by his master, one Walton. It is to be hoped that they will not only be downed in this suit but covered all over with the public contempt. This Walton is what is called a book-maker. He keeps a hotel in New York and speculates with his stray cash on the turf. He is said to have been remarkably fortunate in his earnings, and to have gathered in a fine and imposing pile of ducats. Mr. Walton belongs to that class of patrons of the turf who manage to get on the inside of horse probabilities by bribing jockies,vand accomplishing his crooked purposes by buying jockies to doctor up the favorite on the night before the race. He then bets on the field. He is a shame and disgrace to the American turf, and together with all of his class should be cowhided from the race courses of the country.

Years ago the English breeders have banished this reptile from the society of gentlemen, for over in that country the interests of the turf are in gentlemen's hands. Now that the buccaneer and the gambler have given place to men like the Lorillards and Kcenc, who run their horses for glory, it is about time to drive these professional leeches out of business.

Mr. Files' Koagh Fate.

The Hon. Jesse Filas, of Ashley county, Ark., killed his third man the other day. Unfortunat«ly.for:Mr. Files he Is not running for office this year, and Is therefore unable to take advantage of the popular feeling in his favor.

The enormus sums realized by the sale of the literary and artistic contents of Hamilton and Blenheim palaces is bringing other collections into the market. A week ago, the collection of porcelain, decorative objects, and pictures of Lord de Clifford were sold at Christie's for a large sum.

A speculator named Nicole has appealed to the Legislature for permission to remove the ruins of the St. Cloud Palace, in Paris, and to erect a Crystal PalaSe, on the most approved Sydenham pattern, on their site. He demands permission to enclose a considerable portion of the beautiful park for that purpose.

In England and Wales, in 1S01, there were 584 inhabitants to 100 houses. In lfMl the proportion had fallen to 6-10. In 1881 it was 537. In Ireland in 1841, there were 017 Inhabitants to every 100 houses. In 1881 there were565. The larger numbers in the latter island signify more than they would appear to at the first glanco as the houses, taken all round, arc of a far inferior description.

One of the greatest causes of anxiety which exists amofeg the authorities in regard to the Egyptian expedition, relates not to military difficulties in the way, but to tho health of the troops. They landed in Egypt in the hottest season of the year they will have to carry on their operations under a glaring sun, and in somo places it will be difficult to obtain a supply of water. The English army is not clothcd for field work in a tropical climate, and their ordinary uniforms would be a terrible burden in a campaign on Tho plains of Egypt. England should certainly remedy this matter, and give lioi soldiers a light uniform. It would certainly be eoonomical, for who can tell when she will bo through lighting at both ends of Afrioa and in India.

The Duko of Argyll was present at Glasgow recently at a largo and Influential meeting of gentlemen favorable to the proposal to form a canal through the Mull of Cantyre, nnd thereby provide a direct outlet for shipping traffic from the Firth of Clyde to the west nnd north of Scotland. The channel was proposed to be ttfty feet In width, and tho cost was estimated at. from £150,000 to £200,000. Calculations had been made allowing that vessol to the amount of about 500,000 tons a year will bo expected to take advantage of the canal, and estimating the charge for the use of the canal at 6d per ton, this would give a revenue of £12,000 a year, which was considered a good roturn upon the outlay.

A body of gentlemen from Edinburgh, while on a visit the other day to Dunfermline, seton foota subscription for a monument-in the Abbey Church of the city to King Robert, the Bruce. Mr. Andrew Carnegie, of New York, who is at present In London, has communicated with tho chairman of the movement, stating that In his opinion it must go forward. He has at the snme time, with characteristic liberality, doubled the entire amount subscribed. Mr. Carnegie is the large-hearted native of Dumfermline who lately gave that town a free library aud public baths at a cost of £18,000. As long ago as 1818, when the remains of the Bruce wore discovered, it was proposed to erect a monument at the grave In the form of a sarcophagus, and an inscription in elegant Latin was actually prepared by Dr. Gregory but the scheme came to nothing, even those who boasted that they wore tho lineal descendants of the Patriot King taking not tho slightest practical Interest in It.

Sdme°of Colorado's Industries.

Special Correspondence of the Express. COLORADO SPRINGS, Aug. 22.—'.There is a no more delightful little city iin the West than this. The original proprietors of Colorado Springs had no miserly or stingy ideas when they laid out this city. The streets areall broad, and the lots from seventy-five to onfe hundred feet wide by two hundi'edi feet in depth. They are well .shaded on either side, and living streams of water in the gutters give' the city a most pleasing and inviting appearance in the summer. The houses are- built in the highest style of architecture, and varied in design, which make them always pleasing and attractive to the. eye.

Manitou issixmiles from the springs, and at the base of Pike's Peak and the entrance" of Ute Pass. Here you find three as fine hotels as there are in the country, soda and iron springs, and scenery that is unsuipassed. They make Manitou a place of great attraction for the tourist, and especially a favorite resort of the .citizens of Colorado. -j

The attractions in and about Manitou are varied and the traveler finds his time most pleasantly and profitably spent. The Garden of the Gods first attracts the attention of the tourist* Then a visit to Ute Pass, Bear Canon, Cheyenne Canon, the Cave of the Winds, Manitou Park, Seven Lakes, and last, but not least, the ascent of Pike's Peak, are each in themselves attractive and calculated to impress one with the beauty and majesty of the llocky Mountains.

Terre Haute is very well represented at the Springs this summer. Mrs. Sibley, Mrs. Dowling and her two children, Fenny and Lizzie, Mrs. Allen and her son Eddie. The colony from your city have just returned from a three days' excursion to Pike's Peak. A party of fourteen was made up at the Springs, of which the Prairie City folks and yoilr humble scribe formed a 2art. They left here Saturday morning last in wagons provided with their own rations and sleeping outfits, and went via Cheyenne canon to the Seven lakes, where they camped for the night. Here they provided themselves with "burros and horses and started Sunday morning, bright and early, for the real ascent of. the peak. Your correspondent does not remember the time he has so thoroughly enjoyed an hour as when arranging and getting ready that caravan. If Oscar Wilde had been there he would have dropped dead with thqj heart disease at seeing the ladits throw off all restraints of false modesty. They did not mount their steeds in the equestrian mode usually adopted by the female sex, but with a true idea of comfort and an eye single to safety, they mounted their animals astride, or as they used to say when I was a boy, "straddle."

Oh, how you ladies at home will blush and put your fans up to your faces and look at each other and say "horrible." All right, wait till some of you make the.ascent of the Peak, and if you do not get astride of your Bucephelus then I am no prophet. The party moved out at 8 a. m. from the Seven Lakes for the Peak, which is six miles. The first three miles was with ease. Here you

STRIKE THE TIMBER LINE

and the real ascent commences, it being three miles to the summit, and you make an ascent of 8,150 feet in this distance. There is only a trail over boulders and rocks, and it is very trying on the nerves and the power of endurance. No one with an affection of the heart or the lungs need ever undertake the task, for they will never accomplish it. You can only go a couple of hundred feet when you must slop for rest. On the trail we found plenty of snow and water with which to refresh ourselves. At 12 m. the last of the party reached safely the top, and here the view fills one with awe and bewilderment. To the south one hundred and fifty miles you see the Spanish Peaks, you follow the Arkansas river from where it emerges tlirough the Royal Goree for hundreds of miles through the plains. It looks like a silver thread laid upon a ground of green. Yonder to the north seventy-five miles sits Denver, the Queen City of the plains—to the cast lies the great plains that stretch themselves out to the Missouri, and to the south Old Mexico, while below sits Colorado Springs and Manitou. You see the trains moving on the roads and they ldok like children's toys. The parly refreshed themselves with a little lunch and washed it down with

COFFEE AT FIFTY CENTS PER COP, furnished by the kind hearted Seargeant at the signal station. The coffee at this price is made so strong that one cup fully satisfies your appetite for that beverage.

Just before we left the party was arranged in a group, and a photographer them to pasteboard.

committed them to pasteboard. ou should have seen the pleasing appearance of Mrs. Dowling on her snow white Broncho, worth, in a {rood market, $15. Mrs. Allen, holding to the bridle of her ferocious burro, thatsells in a high market at $50 per dozen, and with a good club and constant pounding will make ten miles in a day.

After a stay of one and a half hours the descent commenced. We had gone only a few rods when a driving snow storm set in, and when we reached timber line and warmer air it had turned to a drenching rain. But iike brave men and courageous women, we pressed on without a murmur, because there was no use of crying that would neither bring shelter or stop the rain. We all arrived at camp at 5 p.' m., but presented the appearance of drowned rats or a well soaked wash-

tarried at the Seven Lakes dining Sunday night, and Monday morning bright and early we broke out for Colorado Springs, twenty miles away. The road from Colorado Springs to Seven Lakes deserves a description which I have not language to give. The road strikes the "Cheyenne Mountains about five miles from the Springs here it makes an ascent of two thousand or twenty-five hundred feet, and then for miles winds around the sides of the mountain.

The party arrived here at 1 p. m. yesterday, safe and sound. I understand the drug stores did a thriving business in* the evening in St. Jacobs Oil, arnica and: mutton tallow—the ladies being^the principal patrons. I ventured'to ..inquire of one to what: use th'e^" applied tnese articles, and she replied that they used them to remove the tani and freckles produced by the sun and the rarified air of a high altitude, and also to assist in restoring lacerated nature to' its normal condition. I am also one of the afflicted. Hand out your arnica. 3Che "Denver Mining and Industrial Exposition" is not proving a financial success. It' is too far removed from the thickly populated portions of the country to draw large crowds. Some ten days ago I looked in upon the exposition for a couple of hours. The mineral exhibits are wonderful.' The Robert E. Lee mine of Leadville exhibits one pyramid of silver valued at $118,500. The Argo works at Denver, silver bricks worth $100,000. No such exhibits of bullion and minerals have ever.before been collected in one group!

THE BULLION PRODUCTION. Although there have been no large strikes in minerals in this State since the Leadville excitement, still Colorado will produce more bullion this year than ever before the estimate being twenty-five millions of dollars.

The great High Line ditch which has been in course of construction for several years by a company of English capitalists is now about completed. By this artificial channel it is proposed to turn the waters of the Platte into the plains and irrigate some five millions of acres of land. That it will be a success there is no doubt and in tho near future Colorado will produce all the agricultural products necessary to support licr own people, her visitors and have a surplus to spare.

The fight between the Denver & Rio Grande and Denver & New Orleans roads goes bravely on. The D. & N, O. is now completed from Denver to Pueblo, 120. miles. The fare was for merly $7.50 either way. It is now $1. So much for competition. This giant corporation, called the D. & R. G. road, which lias for years domineered and extorted from the people of Colorado and every traveller visiting the State, has finally met with a foeman worthy of its steel. A: year ago the credit mo bilier of Colorado would tell you "to nay us (it) our tariff or walk and haul your goods iii a wagon." To-day these fawning sycophants will bei_ -you to patronize them at a dollar fare between Pueblo and Denver.

A party of D. & N. G. officials left Pueblo to-day for the southeast to locate the road to Trinidad, and it will be pushed on to Texas as fast as money and men can accomplish it.

THE LIVER

When seriously diseased not only cfie»rariges the vitnl functions of tho body, but exercises powerful influence over the mind. The intimate connection existing between the liver and the brain, and couHtquently the great influence it exercises, over the passions of mankind would1 naturally lead us to couuludc that many unfortunate beingshavecommttted criminal acts from the simple fact of a diseased state of the liver.

A Few of the Ways

A diseased liver manifests itself are Indigestion, Dyspepsia, a deranged state of tho Bowels, loss of AppetltCj dull and heavy sensationsajter eating, pains in tho side and back, (sometimes mistaken for rheumatism) prickly sensation of the skin, low spirits and a general feeling of weakness and debility,

My digestive organs were weakened, and I would be completely prostrated for days. After usliig two bottles of your Burdock Clood Hitters the improvement was so visible that I wus astonished. I can now. though 01 years of age, do a fair and reasonable day's work."

T.Walker, Cleveland, Ohio, writes: "For tho last twelve months I nuve suffered with lumbago and general debility. I commenced taking Burdock Blood Bitten* about six weeks ago, and now have great pleasure In stating that 1 have recovered my appetite, my complexion has grown ruddy, and 1 feel better altogether."

E. Asenlth Hall, Blnghampton, N. Y. writes: "1

F. A. Scratch, druggist, Huthven, Ontario, writes: "I have the greatest confidence In your "Burdock Blood Bitters." in one case with which I am personally acquainted their success was almost Incredible. One lady told me that half bottle did her more good than hundreds of dollars worth of medicine she had previously taken."

R. Glbbs, of Buffalo, New York writes: "Hearing your Burdock Blood Biters favorably spoken of, I was Induced to watch their effects, nnd find that in chronic diseases of the blood, liver and kidneys, your bitters have been signally marked with success.
