"DEFEND the poor and fatherless do justice to the afflicted and needy. •Deliver the poor and needy rid them out of the hand of the wicked."

Gov. TILLMAN, of South Carolina, 'is on the war-path and announces his •determination to enforce the liquor law of that State to the letter even •if it requires the entire militia force jftt his command to successfully carry '©ut its provisions. He will brook BO opposition to or competition with •the legally authorized State dispensaries of alcoholic beverages.

THE exclusive and dignified United 'States Senate rejected Mr. Horn,blower. Mrs. Emily S. Nelson, of 'New York, took a different view of ifiis merits and married him. He will doubtless be a very good husband, if he cannot be a Supreme Court justice, as the lady was the sister of his deceased wife and had Eved in his family for seven years, the most of the time a widow.

IT is stated for a fact that Hon. W. H. English, of Indianapolis, has such a prejudice against elevators that he has never rode in one, and heavers that he would climb 500 feet of stairway rather than take a risk of accident which he feels is always hanging over the reckless mortals who daily soar and plunge betwixt heaven and earth to save a little time and extra exertion.

THE 90th birthday of Gen. Neal Dow. March 20. 1894. is to be generally observed throughout the United States by meetings in the interest of temperance reform. Neal Dow was born in Portland, Me., March 20, 1804, and there are few men of seventy who are to-day so active and well preserved in every way as he is at eighty-nine. His entire manhood has been devoted to an earnest advocacy of total abstinence from alcoholic beverages.

REPRESENTATIVE citizens of the south of Ireland will soon hold a meeting at Cork to urge the British government to maintain the Queenstown mail route to and from America. The British Postmaster-G eneral in said to favor the Southampton route, but the people of Cork and contiguous territory hope to be able to bring sufficient pressure to bear to prevent a change from the present order of things.

THE Japanese are models of candor and frankness. They call a spade a spade, and sign their names to their sentiments. A Jap in Sendai recently became convinced that wine drinking was ruining his financial prospects, and thereupon announced in the local newspapers that in the future he intended to abstain unless somebody "set 'em up," and signed the remarkable ad. "Takahashi Rvozabaro."

INDIANAPOLIS papers are howling for a pest house, quarreling over the donation of $5,000 to Mr. Fortune, secretary of the Commercial Club, for alleged extra services during the encampment, finding fault with the quality of meat donated to the poor, sneezing at the Police Superintendent, pitching into the Board of Works for their inaction in improvement matters, abusing the Street Railway Company for in ad eq ate service—and altogether seem to be in a most unhappy "frame" of mind.

THE possibilities of chemical research are imperfectly understood. Every year new triumphs are achieved in this direction. Recent discoveries have demonstrated that chloroform can be made from natural gas for ten cents a pound. Other chemical compounds are also to be obtained from this wonderful product of nature, such as methyl and alcohol, at a cost trifling when compared to that of oth or processes. A company to manufacture such articles will be organized in Indianapolis by a Pittsburg chemist.

Billy Deutsch, tho gambler, who once broke the bank at Monte Carlo, died at Denver, Monday, of delirium tremens. He had won and squandered several large fortunes. For the past two years ho was a traveling agent for a wine and cigar house, when his health, which had been ruined by his dissipations, pcrmittod him to attend to business.

Then? is no longer doubt that yellow fever has made its appearance in the United States fleet at Rio, and that the Newark is now a fever ship.

Southern Pacific Train Wrecked and Bobbed.

A. Switch Turned and the Exp**93 Car Blown Up With Dynainitec

A dispatch from Los Angeles, Cai., Feb 16, says: Southern Pacific train No. 20 was robbed at Roscoe station this morning, about 1 o'clock. The train readied Burbank, about six miles north of the city, and reported back all right. At Roscoo, four miles north of Burbank, there ia no station but a siding. As the train approached the siding the engineer, Thomas, saw too late that the switch was misplaced and vainly tried to stop the train, but he could not do it, and the engine and two fruit cars of oranges went into tho ditch, the engine turning over and burying the engineer and fireman. The two fruit cars were a total wreck.

As soon as the wreck occurred three masked men sprang ouf of the bushes and commenced a fusilade, and every one knew that the mission of the desperadoes was robbery. A few seconds later a couple af dynamite bombs were placed under the express car. The messenger refused to open tho car and the wholo side was blown off. Brakeman Foster rose to the emergency as soon as he heard the shots, and made a run for a neighboring ranch house, where he saw a light. Here ho got a team and drove back tc Burbank and gave tho alarm. Twc tramps had gotten on the pilot of the engine and were stealing a ride, when tho locomotfve jumped the track. One of them was hurled fifty feet, and marvelously escaped injury. Tho other, James Daly, was caught and buried beneath tin debris of the engine. lie was instantly killed, his body being horribly mangled The wrecked engine went down the bank ten feet. Engineer Thomas jumped and run, but Fireman Masters was pinioued between the cab and tender and died as he was taken out. Harry Edgar, the express messenger in charge of tho WellsFargo Co:npany, and the onlj person in the car, gave a version of the affair as follows: "The first thing I knew there was a terrible shock and 1 at once kn there was a wreak, but of course did )t know what was the matter. The explosion of a dynamite bomb was tiio next thing heard at the right hand door. 1 tvas standing near the center o! tho car when the bomb exploded. It shattered the door into splinters and the i\ hole car was soon filled with smoke. The robbers then began shooting, warning mo in the meantime to open tho do»r the door quickly. They shovel a rijlo into the do.n\ I obeyed thijru under the penalty of death. TVD robbjrs came in and got all they co 11.1. I op tried tho Wei Is-Fargo box, and they took what little silver tharo was. I saw only two men,"

After gathering together their booty the robbers placed it in gunny sacks, and. mounting horses, galloped off in the direelion of the mountains. It is not known how much treasure of the Wells-Fargc Company the robbers male olf with, bul it ia supposed to bo a very largo amount.

EIGHT ASPHYXIATED.

Eight men were overcome by gas in tho basement of the power house of the Fifthstreet Cable Road Company, at Kansai City, and one, SuperintendentC. P. Kline, may die. Several strands of the cab!? broke and became twisted around a gas main in the basement, breaking the main in two Seven conductors and grip men went down to splice tho cable, and while at work were asphviated. The break in the gas main was not discovered until tlu men had succumbed to the gas.

The Japanese have become "Christianized" enough to resort to bomb-throwing in order to get revenge on their enemies Recently a resident of Gumma prefecture threw a bomb into the house of a politician who had not obtained for him a coveted position. Four inmates of the house were injured, one fatally.

A Well-Known Citizen Whose Life Was. Despaired

and Strength—The Particulars ef liis Remarkable Cure as Bo- 3 lated to a He porter of the CravtTordsv.lle

Journal. »,

Crawfordsville Journal. There is probably no man better known in this city than G. M. Johnson, or as he is familiarly called by everybody. Six months! ago it was a common remark that "poor Mit bad but a few days more of his life," his physical condition being such that not one of his hundreds of friends had the slightest hope of his surviving the summer. 1 He had about abandoned all hope^r himself, evidently, and was confine^, to his room and bed, unable to walk or to attend to any business whatever. A representative of this paper who has enjoyed an intimate! acquaintance with Mr. Johnson for a long number of years, met him walk-^ inir briskly up street today, and in astonishment inquired of him what had brought so wonderful a change in his appearance and condition. "Well," said Mr. Johnson, "for a number of years I have had a complication of troubles, the most serious being spinal and nervous trou- if ble, which, as you know, brought I me pretty near death's gate. friends despaired of my recovery, and I had but little hope myself of 1 ever being about actively again. My health kept going from bad to worse until I became perfectly helpless. I i' was unable to walk a step, cou-Id not f. sleep, had no appetite I just lived and suffered and could not die to get relief. Physicians did me no good jj neither did all the other remedies 11 tried, and I believe I have taken enough medicine in the last fe\v| years to stock a drug store. I was in this miserable hopeless and helpless condition when a friend called my attention to a remarkable cure through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and urged me to try them. I felt that perhaps it was a last chance, and procured a supply of Pink Pills from Messrs. Nye & liooe. the well-known druggists. That was about six months ago. and you see what they have done for me. I am a new man now. I had not been taking Dr.... Williams' Pink Pills long when I began to find an improvement. I saw that I had at last hit upon a remedv that had virtue in it hope returnee^ and continued to use the pills and continued to improve in health! and strength, and while I am nofcf the stoutest man in the city am a| new man altogether. I feel well, eat heartily, sleep soundly, the dizzy nervous trouble has entirely left*_ can walk briskly, and am enjoying j... life as of yore. I consider this Pink[,• Pill remedy a wonderful one, and I have recommended it to a number of my friends who have been similarlyafflicted. Why, I cannot recommend the remedy too highly. Just think, .. for nearly'a year T. could not stand up to take a drink of water without getting blind from dizziness, and the 5 most excruciating pains would seize me, and during these paroxysms I suffered untold ngonv. I am now entirely free from these pains. "Just say to any one who m&j want information that I will freelv give them any information they maj desire on the subject, and will 0I1Jy be too glad to see some of my friends benefited in the same way. I knov some who are in need of something right now, and will urge them ti try the four p's.
