Many peases of malaria are distinguished from the old fashioned fever and ague by the insidiousness- of its attack and the difficulty wita waich it is cured.

I have always felt that an "ounce of prevention wa=! worth a pound of cure" in medicine, and thi.t it was wise to heed these warnings. Don't take cold, but if you do, on the first symptoms, obtain from your nearest druggist a jar of Pretzinger's Catarrh Balm and, app!y it freely to the nostrils'several times each diy, especially before retiring at night. Tbis invaluable preparation I have prescribed for a number of years and have invariably found it most]ei2cacious.

French Soldiers March Her Capital.

Hostilities at Great Cost of l.ife and

The government of Madagascar has all along denied that the treaty gave France the rights she claimed, holding that M. Le Myro de Viiers, the French diplomatic agent in 1887, entered into an agreement with Madagascar, on behalf of France, to the eFleet that, the exequaturs of consuls and consular agents should be given in the future, as in the past, by the Queen of Madagascar, and that the later treaty did not changs the situation. On this question is based tho dispute which led to disturbances duisiiig which the representatives of France were insulted by tho populate and slighted by the government of Madagascar, and, in addition, a number ol Frenchmen were assassinated.

In September, 1894, matters finally reached such a state that M. Le Myre de Viiers was seat to Madagascar with an ultimatum from French government insisting iu .sub *^.nce that France should control the foreign relations of Madagascar. Tho ultimatum was delivered to tho prime minister, Pamilaiariveny, who is also the husband oi Qaoen llanavadona II. After several days of deliberation the prime minister rejected the ultimatum saying that Madagascar,, would ouly submit to superior force. M. Ie Viiers and all the French agents thereupon returned to Tamntave, and France began making preparations to bring the Horas, the predominant trike of the island to terms.

In November last the French minister for foreign affairs, M. Hauotaux, a&ked for a credit of 65,000,000 francs and 15,000 men for an expedition to Madagascar, an his request was promptly granted. The expedition, which was planned by General Borgnis-Desbordes, left France iu January, under command of General Duchesne. The insalubriety of the climate has proved a more dangerous foe to the invaders than the natives, aud the capture of the Malagassy capital has been accomplished at great cost of life and health.

Heal tlu PARIS, Oct. 9.—A dispatch received

here from Port Louis, island of Mauritius, announces the capture ot* Antananarivo, capital of tho island of Madagascar, by the French troops, and caused great relief to the government, as it has been recognized for some time past that tlio defeat of the Frencn troops meant a change of ministry. The news quickly spread throughout the city, causing great excitement and much rejoicing.

France and Madagascar have been at loggerheads for more thau 10 years, chiefly over the right of the government of Madagascar to act independently of the French resident in granting exequaturs to foreign consular agents and consuls. According to the French, by the treaty of December, 18S5, the French resident and a military guard of French troops was to reside at the capital aud control the foreign relations of Madagascar, making the island to all invents and purposes a French protectorate.

The corpses were burned almost beyond recognition. Fire Boss Davis and Engineer Owens were literally roasted and Cahill'a body had a large gash on the forehead, evidently from the force of the explosion. Tho men were killed by the force of tho explosion, and all died nearly in the same spot. No more bodies have been found, and it is now believed the list of dead will be confined to the following:

William Jones, mining engineer, aged 32 years.

David J. Davis, lire boss, leaves a wife and two children. Michael Morris, 40 years, Polauder, single.

Robert Miller and Robert Blanchard, the two members of the engineering party brought out of the mine Monday night, are still iu a precarious condition at the hospital.

Owing to insufficient hydrant pressure, the firemen could do nothing with tho flames, and the structure was leveled. An adjoining building was damaged. The hotel was only partially insured. A company represented here recently carried $16,000 on the structure, which was allowed to lapse.

Farmers Grow Tired

Losing Their

Vroperty.

FRANKFORT, Ind., Oct. 9.—What appears to have been a well organized gang of thieves made a raid on the farmers of Jackson township, this county, Monday night. More than a dozsn fanners reported losses yesterday of grain, harness, meat, etc. At Cyclone, a village located in this township, the thieves forced an entrance into the only store aud carried away nearly eveiylhing of value that they could liandlb.

Altogether, property to the value of $1,000 is missing, and the farmers of the section raided are up in arms but no trace of the thieves has been discovered. Officer Bird of this city is making an effort to get bloodhounds from Kokomo and Darlington, and if successful, will try to run the thieves down. A few nights ago the northeastern part of the county was visited in a similar manner, but the loss sustained was not nearly so heavy.

Mrs. Moorman was frightened into spasms, and a scene of great excitement greeted members of the family as they came rushing into the room. Mrs. Kunse was to have been buried yesterday afternoon, but arrangements have been indefinitely postponed, as she will probably recover.

MUNCIE, Ind., Oct. 9.—J. B. Snider, proprietor of the Tremont hotel, died yesterday. A few days ago he ordered that his family engage no one in his place after his death, as he would order goods and run the house from the other land. He was a spiritualist.

He Wanted to Be the President's £rrand Boy. WASHINGTON, Oot. 9.—After along

period of freedom from such inflictions another crank turned up at the White House yesterday in the person of one Owen Jones, hailing from Hew York state. He had previously addressed a threatening letter to the house, so that the officers were on the watch for him.

Yesterday he turned up and in an incoherent and rambling fashion, that plainly showed a disordered mind, announced he had come for employment as the president's boy. He was promptly removed to the nearest police station and it is probable that he will be examined as to his mental condition and placed in safety.

DEFENSE DISAPPOINEP.

Snrnnfii Attorney All Krnken Up Their Own Witnesses.

BAIT FRAXOISOQ, Oct. 9.—After' doring throngh a mass of unimportul witnesses, the defense in the Doraat oase yesterday afternoon summoned to the stand two of the most important witnesses that have been called siae* the prosecution closed its case. One of the witnesses materially aided the defense, for the fact that upon cross-exam-ination he failed to give important tea* timony expected by the prosecution* The examination of the other witness had only just began when the oonrl took a recess for die day, but in tha short time the witness was on the stand he testified to one important fact which was directly opposed to what the dafense mut noped to est.aoli.sii.

Tue most important witness of th« day was Chanes T. Lenah.in, the young man wnom tho del'i!:'..s.} con scuds was mistaken lor J.)u.ant oy a,\ ubroke* Oppcninuiii Leuanaii, who does not bear a striking resemblance to Che prisoner, sad on Apiil 3 he attempted to pawn a siuaii diamond ring, similar to tiie one worn by Blanche Lamont, at Opponnoim's shop. The witness said tiiat lie asked Oppcuhoini tho Sana* questions and received the same answers t.-r.it )])pt uheiai quoted iu relating me conversation he had with tha young man wnom Opponheim testified was UIV

:iz.

i.a :i caaic tue surprises

to the df:ease wluch counteracted nearly all of the strength gained from tiie Witnesses' testimony. Lenahan saul he tried to pawn the ring in the afternoon, while Oppenheim testified that Darant entered his snop in the morning.

Attorney Duprey was considerably difecoucc.-ted by the statement of the witness and endeavored to impeach Lenahan's testimony by reading a letter Yvnuer by Lienahan to the attorney for the defuse in which lie divulged the fact that he had tried to pawn a small diamond ring at Oppenheiu-'s ou the same day Darant was said to have entereu the place. Tiie court interrupted Duprey, however, and refused to let him road only such parts of the letter as referred to the question in issue. Duprey then asked that the letter be admitted in evidence, and at "he close of the struggle over this move, court adjourned for the day.

The court refused to admit the whole letter in evidence as some passages were devoted to the expression of the writer's opinions as to the correctness of Oppenheim's testimony. The remainder of the letter was admitted.

In the case of Miss Carrie Cunning* ham, a newspaper reporter, who refused to disclose the source of certain information relative to the nature of Mrs. Leak's testimony, Judge Murphy ruled that the witness was right in refusing to answer the questions. Miss Cunningham was therefore net punished for con-tempt.

BOILER EXPLOSION.

Six JZen Injured but Fatally. DOVER, N. J., Oct. 9.—There was a

serious boiler explosion at the Wharton iron mine at Hibernia yesterday. Bix men were injured, but none of them fatally. The injured are:
