Ox£ legislator opposed the drug store amendment to tlic Nicholson bill becau.se lie said it would drive the country drug stores out of existence. Not all of them, we think, but a man who has been running a saloon under the guise of a drug store ought to have such business knocked out.

DURIXG the past ten years the bonded indebtedness of Europeau nations has increased $5,600,000,000, while that of the United States has been decreased every year until the last, when it was increased by the sale of "Grovers." The nited States, with its wonderful resources and diversified industries will be in good shape as soon as we get a square deal on the silver question. We no longer w?.ut W stand up for the interests of the gold shvlosks of London. Let us have bimetallism.

AUD MATTIIKWSlias been commended many times by the Republicans for rising above party and doing the proper thing. Monday, however, when he concluded to act the demagogue, and by holding back liis veto message on the State House Custodian bill until just when the legislature was ready to adjourn so that they could not pass it over his veto, he made a miscalculation. He ran in his cold deck, but the Republicans very properly met. his play, and as the House adjourned without the bill reaching the Speaker it became & law. Cain had turned the hands of the clock back, but the House adjourned at the preper time by the Speaker's watch. That young Republican giant, Albert Adams, from Parke county, who so successfully held his own against Democratic odds, was a friend and classmate of N. R. Spencer, of this city, at the State University.

THE Indiana Statesmen are marching home to-day that is to say, those who were not too badly disabled by the miniature Donuybrook fair last night, and also possibly a Senator or two who pulled too long or too frequently at his friend Cain's demijohn in the basement of the State .House. Take it all in all, the legislature

Las done fairly well. The majority was so big that it was somewhat unwieldly, and like Grover's wild colts, a little difficult to manage at times, but they passed some good laws. The appropriations were cut down i?2o(),00Q, 2 cents was dropped from the State tax levy, fair congressional and legislative apportionment bills were passed, so that the political party that carries the State by a majority of 5,000 or 6,000 will elect a majority of the congressmen and carry the legislature, the management of the Benevolent Institutions was put on a better basis fact, the Republicans have, to a large extent, carried out their platform pledges and campaign promises. The party has given the rights of all fair consideration and under the guidance and direction of that able, competent, popular and magnificent speaker, Justus C. Adams, many laws that will redound to the glory and honor of the Republican party haye been passed. We say the legislature did well. Let the people judge. To-morrow or Thursday we will publish a brief synopsis of all the laws passed and the text of the Nicholson bill in full. In his closing remarks Speaker Adams made a characteristic speech, which we indorse, in which he said: ''I certainly believe that the verdict of the people will be that we have zealously guarded the interests of all, and have been watchful o! the lights of the poor and lowly. I believe it Will be found that the spirit of justice pervades the laws we have made and in •very relationship of our fellowmen, affected by our legislation, fairness, equity and the rights of all have been fully considered, while the great power of the State, confided to our care, has been «xercised in supporting the weak, caring for the helpless and afflicted, in restraining the strong and rich, and laying the corrective arm of the State on the vicious and the lawless. y.v House to Itaiit.

WONDERS OF THE SEA.

Sea water is said to contain all the solublo substances that exist on tho earth. Tho average depth of all oceans is supposed to bo between 2,000 and 3,000 fathoms.

Tho sea nettle stings its prej* to death by means of a poison secreted in its tentacles.

If the surface of the earth were perfectly level, the waters of tho ocean would cover it to a depth of (500 feet.

Tho first mention of the gulf stream is in the journal of Alaminos, the pilot of Ponce do Leon, in 1513.

It is estimated thatinoro gold and silver have b:rn sunk in the sea than aro now in circulation on the earth.

The proportion of salt in sea water is largest where tho water is deepest, but does not increase with tho depth.

Tho first map of the gulf stream was made bj- Benjamin Franklin, who tried to point out the utility of ocean currents in navigation.

The sea anemono is capable of swallowing an animal many times larger than itself. It spreads its body, and thus surrounds its prey.

The Venus' belt is a thin, flat membrane from 1 to 2 feet long and about tho width of a lady's belt. Its mouth is in the middle of its body.

In the fiords on the Norway cftast tho clearness of the water is wonderful. Objects the size of a half dollar may bo seen at a depth of 25 or 30 fathoms.

The hydrozoa consists of a scarlet flower and along tubo by which tho animal is attached to a rock. The tentacles wave about in the water, and whon an animalcula comes near it is instantly seized and put down the throat of the captor.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

The New York assessor is also trying to make Aunt Hetty Green believo she lives in New York, but Hetty says she knows where sho lives, and it Is no such town.— Chicago Herald.

Pulpit sensationalism has reached a climax in San Francisco, where a young preacher illustrated his sermon on dancing by waltzing through it. It was a very moving discourse.—Baltimore American.

The Washington Post wants the folding bed utilized as a means of executing murderers. Tho Washington Post evidently forgets that a humane civilization seeks justice, not vengeance.—Newburg Register.

New York state believes "Old Glory" Is good enough flag, and a bill has passed the assembly to "float no foreign flag ovor any public building cither for decoration or for any civic occasion." New York is right. Colorado has already followed suit with a similar bill.—Chicago Inter Ocean.

GEMS FROM JEFFERSON.

Taste cannot bo controlled by law. Stable ownership is the gift of social law and is given late in tho progress of society.

Laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the humnu mind.

The press is the best instrument for enlightening tho mind of man and improving him as a rational, moral and social being.

This formidable censor of the public functionaries, by arraigning them at the tribunal of public opinion, produces reform peaceably, which must otherwise be done by revolution.

WITH MY PIPE.

When the wind blows cold and shrill through tho black December night, And the oak logs pile tho chimney, and the flame is leaping bright, When witch tales aro in order, and the children cease their pluy, I light my pipe contentedly and puff and puff away.

Puff, puff, puff! Though the wind the casement cuff, A full pipe of tobacco Brings mo happiness enough.

Is sleep the time for dreaming? Well, I dream my dreams awake. I love the varying visions that a wreath of smoke can make. Tho scent of my tobacco makes mo reconciled to stay In a world which hath no sorrow but a pipe can puif away.

Puff, pnff, puff!

K,v.-:.v-Let

the -\vorUl go smooth or rough, A pipe »f ru tobacco Brings me happiness enough.

In the blue smoke round me curling rise the Carolina hills, The sunlight on the meadows and the ripple on the rills. And the valleys of Virginia seem to blossom with the May, And I hear tho reapers singing as I puff and puff away.

puff, puff!

\Yh t- though fortune should rebuff? .. A pipe of fine tobacco Brings me happiness enough.

Old friends I loved come smiling through each misty wreath that curls. I hear the fiddle's music, see the red lips of the girls. The snows of life's December have a rainbow tinted ray. And a sweet face I remember makes me sigh und puif away!

Puff, puff, puff! Life i4 rosy, life is rough, But a pipe of sweet tobacco Brings inn happiness enough.

But I smile, for I'm contented, and no visions can provoke, When tho frosty air is scented with old time tobacco smoke. Tho girls I love arc married, and their golder. locks are gray. Be my blessing to them carried as I puff and puff away!

Puff, puff, puff 1 Let the wind the casement cuff. A pipe of rare tobacco Brings mo happiness enough. —F. L. Stanton in Southern Tobacco Journal.

A DESERT MYSTERY.

Colonel Whitehead is a story teller from way back aud has a reputation as a raconteur that spreads over a dozen western states and territories and from tho waters of the Atlantic to those of the Pacific. Ho has had innumerable thrilling adventures, both in war and in peace, and when in tho proper humor he will spin yarns of the most absorbing interest by tho hour.

Ono story that ho related as we wero jogging along behind the mules on a recent trip to the undoubted gateway of sheol—i. e., the sulphur banks of Kern county—is so uncanny and strange that I will venture to repeat it. "Sorno threo years ago," said the colonel, "I was engaged in making a survey from Rogers, on tho Mojavo desert, to Antiocli. Wo mado rapid progress toward Fort Tejon pass, and it became necessary to check up tho lino, measuring distances from government comers, that the road might bo accurately located upon the filing map. This work was assigned to an odd genius whom I will call Buck, a man past 65, tough as a knot and as wicked as a pirate. Frequently he would set his rickety old transit with the lens wrong end to, and after trying to locate the flag for 15 or 20 minutes he would discover his error, and then such swearing as he indulged in is rarely heard outside the forecastle of a man-of-war. I sometimes think the strango manifestation which I am about to relate to you might have been duo to Buck's profanity. Certainly if man can ever have power to summon spirits, evil or good, from the nether world, Buck ought to have had that power in no small measure. "I began the inspection of the survey preparatory to the right of way work, starting at Rogers, a desolate station on tho A. and P. road, on the borders of an immense dry lake. We made our first camp somo 15 miles west of that point. The regular survey camp was at this time near Gorman's Station, under the shadows of Mount Frazier. Our camp was a rude settler's cabin, and near it waa a shack barn with a little hay stored in it. A well of fairly good water close by mado a comfortable camp a possibility. It was late in October, and the water had risen near the surface in the bed of tho city lake. Wo had eaten our supper tho first night out and were having a quiot emoke, looking out over the desolate expanse of desert toward Lancaster, a station 011 the Southern Pacific road, some 25 or SO miles to the southwest. Buck had been entertaining us with yarns about ghosts that he insisted haunted an old mining camp near Owens' lako and was inclined to feel hurt because I laughed at his tales. "When darkness came on and only tho outlines of the gaunt mountains across the desert were discernible in the starlight, Buck of a sudden said, 'Colonel, I never thought an engine headlight could bo Been so plainly at Lancaster." ms* 'Nor did I,' was my reply, as I saw close to the ground at a distance difficult to estimate a round, strange colored light or ball of fire, very like a locomotive headlight. A moment's watching, however, soon convinced me that the light was erratic in its movements and was nothing more or less than a grand display of the 'ignis fatuus' or will o' the wisp, something

1

I

had

seen many times at the ends of the spars or mastheads of a ship at sea, but never on land or in such magnitude. I said to Buck: 'It's no headlight. It's one of your ghosts come to convinco me of the truth of your stories.' He turned white as a sheet and grasped me by the arm, Maying, 'It's coming dead for us, sure as we live.' "And so it was. Dancing up and down, it came nearer and nearer.

I

must confess it made even mo a trifle nervous, while as for Buck he evidently took my joke about the ghost in dead earnest and was completely panio strick­

en. 'For God's sake!' he cried, 'let us get out of this,' and was on the point of jumping up and running off into the desert when all of a sudden the light disappeared and was seen no more that night. "Buck finally quieted down, though I could see by his nervousness and frequent quick glances in the direction in which the light had appeared that ho was still in dread of its reappearance. "I discussed the matter with him for hours, trying to explain the real nature of tho phenomenon, and that no possible harm could como of it. But he would not have it that way, and all that I could say did not influenco his superstitious dread of tho strange appearance. "'Colonel,' ho said, 'it's a hoodoo. This railroad schemo and its promoters will die suddenly. Sure!' "I laughed at his fears, and we lay down to rather a restless night. Tlio work in this section was not completed next day in time to return to the main camp, and half a dozen times in tho courso of the work Buck spoke about the 'ghosts,' as ho persisted in calling the phenomenon, and he was even moro muddled than usual in his manipulation of tho transit. Finally his slowness caused night to como 011 beforoour task was completed, and wo therefore returned at dusk to the same camping place as the night before. "After wo had eateu supper Buck said: 'Colonel, I never want to seo that infernal light again. Ghosts or no ghosts, it's no good, and no luck will come of it.' "The words wero scarcely out of his mouth when, apparently not more than a hundred yards away, tho hugo ball of fire appeared liko a flash, dancing up and down and seomingly coming dead toward us. Now Buck became almost besido himself with terror. 'Let's go, and the quicker tho better,' shouted my now thoroughly alarmed companion, but suddenly, as on the previous night, tho light vanished. Buck then recovered somo portion of his equanimity, and though ho was still anxious to return to camp I finally persuaded him that thero was danger that wo would lose our way if wo ventured out on tho desert after dark, wliilo if we remained there was nothing to bo afraid of. Neither of us slept much, however, for I must confess that I had a sort of 'creepy' sensation myself, and wo were up early next morning, completed our work and got an early start back to camp. "Wliilo wo wero 011 tho road Buck said: 'Colonel, I don't want to discourage you, but the people who are at tho head of this scheme to build a competing railroad will die suddenly, and this work will stop. In fact, I wouldn't wonder if you and I both went ovor tho range with them to keep them company. But they arc going, sure!' 'How little you know!' I replied, and I could say 110 more, as my backers wore then unknown. "Now let me tell you tho strango sequel. Tho very same weok that Buck mado his prediction tho Barings failed. Early in November Henry D. Minot, the leading spirit and financial head of the enterprise, was killed in a railroad accident wliilo returning from Washington, where ho had concluded tho purchase of General Bealo's ranches in every detail savo the passing of tho papers and paying tho money, the intention having been to subdivide that immense estato of 204,000 acres. "On Thanksgiving day of tho same month came orders to closo tho work, discharge everybody and break camp. Tho following year Allan Manvel, president of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road, died after a brief illness, he having been the second backer of this great enterprise, and soon followed the death of Mr. Magoun of the great banking house of Baring, Magoun &Co., the third and liist of tho promoters of a rival railroad to the Southern Pacific system." "What became of Buck?" I asked as the colonel paused. "Buck? Just read that clipping, and the colonel took from his pocketbook a worn bit of newspaper and handed it to me. It read as follows: V,

BAGDAD, Colorado Desert, Jan. 15,1889. An old inspector and surveyor known as Buclc Pomeroy disappeared mysteriously from hin camp at this point threo days ago, and no trace of him has been found. Ho was in company with two friends and was apparently in good health and spirits. They all retired HS customary oarly in the evening, but in tho morning Buck was missing, and diligent search has failed to find him. He went aw:»y just as he was rolled in his blankets—barefooted and half dressed. Ono of tho men said h« thought he heard Buck's voice in the night saying something about some ghosts being after him, but he thought it was a dream and so paid no attention to it. Buck has evidently joined that innumerable caravan of men whose bones whiten tho remote sections of the desert and will doubtless remain forever without burial.

I folded up the clipping and returned it to the colonel. He put it back in his pocketbook without a word.—San Francisco Call.

Swells of Ancient Egypt.

From what has come down to us, written, painted or chiseled, the Egyptian lord must have been a great swell. The details of the twelfth dynasty show Egyptian elegance at its best. The lord has a male housekeeper, his miatre d'hote, called "superintendent of the provision house." There was a "superintendent of the baking house,"and the mixer of drinks had the title of "scribe of the sideboard. Perhaps he was a butler and regulated the supply of Winos from the cellar. There were gardeners, porters and handicraft men, all busy in attending to tho master. 'A preparer of swoets" must have been a confectioner. The Egyptian, when he was no longer mortal, had hopes of being well fed in the hereafter, as he believed be would bo nourished in his particular heaven with abundant goose and beef. Offerings to the gods show tho variety of the Egyptian menu, and in ono are included 10 kinds of cooked meat, 5 kinds of bird or game, 16 varieties of bread and oake, 0 assorted wines, 4 brews of beers, 11 sorts of fruits and an endless number of sweet things.—New York Times.

Perfect Health—Kead Marion Ityland's Testimony.

I was afllicLed with typhoid fever two years ago last August. After lingering five weeks under treatment of a good physician, was restored, but in a short time my left side became inflamed, an ulcer appeared over the region of my heart. In course of time I had it lanced. It. con" tinned to discharge a very dark poisonous matter for nearly two years. I was under treatment from three doctors in that time who doctored me for blood disease. Of course they gave me some relief, but iuy atlliction seemed to continue about one stage. I am now (50 years old have always been of a weakly constitution. Having read the te.-timonial of James M. Deer, who was allliCU: 1 in like manner, I I at once procured a bottle of my druggist,

At the time commenced aking ic my I side was discharging abjut a half pint. of dark poisonous matter each day. I WHS so weak that I was confined to my I bed: could not eat or sleep, anil to rest was impossible. I have taken one bottle I of your Acme blood purifier. My Hide has settled down, has stopped running, lias bealtd up and not a particle of soreness about it. 1 shall continue to take the medicine for some time. am cer tain it has effected a permanent cure, will take great pleasure in recommending it as a blood medicine to all who are I afllicted as I have been. I would not take $100 for the relief I have had in the past few weeks all brought about by the use of the Acme blood purifier.

You are welcome to use my signature. MAKIOK BYLAND. St. Paul, Ind., March 2G, 1893

Acme blood purifier is a great promoter of health when taken in the spring, to expel humors which are *n the system at that season of the year. Cleanse the vitiated blood whenever you fiud its impurities burstiog through the skin in pimples, eruption or sores, cleanse it when it is obstructed aud sluggish in the veins or whenever it is foul. Even where no disorder is felt, people enjoy better health aud live longer by occasionally cleansing the blood aud enlivening its diminishing vitality. Its effects being alterative, it changes the action of the system, im" parting fresh strength and vigorous health in place of weakness, indicative of disorder aud decay.
