DID XOT APPROVE TIIE BILL

The Governor Ilolds that the General Assembly Goes Outside Its Province. Its Appointment of Trustees for Additional Hospitals for the Insane Calls Up a Constitutional Question Other Legislative Matters. Governor Ilovey yesterday morning returned to the Senate, without his indorsement, another of the political bills passed by the Democratic majority. It was the one providing for the election by the (General Assembly of three trustees for each of the addition I hospitals for the insane. Private Secretary Roberts almost caused a sensation on the Democratic side of the House when he came in with the message few minutes after 10 o'clock. Not moro than forty Democratic members were in the hall, and as the Speaker, ruling on a point of order made by Mr. Vv'illard several days ago, had held that the Constitution required a bill to be reconsidered as soon as it was returned unsigned, the Democrats were afraid they were going to be caught in their own trap. They were so excited that but few of them heard the message read, as they lepan running hither and thither in search of the absentees, hoping to have a majority present by the time the vote had to be taken. The message was as follows: t FTATE-irorE, Induxapou. March 2, 18S9. To the House Of Representative, Indiana poll, Ind.: Hon. Mason J. NIblack, grater After mature consideration I return without my approval House Bill No. 11. entitled: "An act providing for the orjranization and administration of the additional hospitals for the insane and declaring an emergency." The only objection I have to this act is the attempt on the part of the legislature to npioint or elect the trustees of said hospital at IiransIort, liichmond and Evansville. My views on the powers of the legislative, executive and judicial departments, are stated In my veto of Henate Bill No. 314, of thlssension. and I still adhere to tho csitious expressed in that message. That there may be no misunderstanding between tho legislative and executive departments, I shall,as Governor ot the State of Indiana, recognize no person elected or appointed to any Ftate otlice created by statute law, unless such election or appointment is directed by tho Constitution. I concede the Central Assembly may create new offices, necessary to carry on the alfaira of the Ptate. I concede that they can direct the election of such officers by the people, or in compliance with the Constitution authorize the Governor, or the Governor by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to fill such offices by appointment, but I ttrmly deny that the General Assembly has any power to ekct or appoint any officer to any office created by statute. To permit the General Assembly to control snch elections or appointments, would be to abandon our republican form of government and sink into au oliiraiahy, as nearly ten At 1 - 1 1 1 V.M 1 mou.auu onices couiu ue cnanjcu uy ouu aci, m one day, and conferred upon the friends of the dominant party, whether Democrats or Republicans. It will be a sad day for Indiana when ucn a principle is established. The contest m the leetion of our Senator and Representative would be, who shall have all the offices created by itatute laws In the State! . I shall regard no one as a State officer wno cannot sbow a commission under the following aoction of our Constitution: Section 6, Article 15: AI commissions shall the Governor, sealed by tho State seal and attested by the Secretary of State." Alvix P. liovET, Governor. After the message had been read, Mr. "Willard asked that the roll be called to see whether there were enough present to repass the bill. The call showed but fifty Democratic members present, ana tho Speaker hesitated a minute, not knowing what to do. Mr. Brownlee called attention to the ruling the Speaker had made a few days lefore, but the official addressed, very much embarrassed, denied that he had ruled in that way, and said he did not think it was necessary that tho bill should be reconsidered at once. Just then the door-keepers brought in enough Democratic members to make a maioritv. and the bill was nassed. notwithstanding the objections of tneoovernor, by a vote of 54 to GO. In the after ... -.. " . ...... noon the message was read in the Senate. and, without any incidents, the bill was reconsidered and passed over the veto. The Democrats thought their bills forth creation by the (reneral Assembly of boards of trustees for tho benevolent institutions would meet with the Governor's approval, nndthevwero verv much surprised when the message was received. The Senators were particularly interested while it was being read, and the position the Governor took was the subject of. conversation among them the remainder of 'the afternoon. Hard Lines for the Curtis MIL The fathers and step-fathers of the Curtis board of control bill are having a difficult time getting the measure in shape to suit all the ward bummers. As it was amended by tho Senate, it has drawn opposition from people who cannot see the necessity of two city attorneys, and many Democrats in the House gave notice to the dude author of the measure that they would not vote to concur in the amendments. Accordingly, when it was called up in the House yester day, Mr. Curtis, hoping to save the measure from defeat, moved that the amendments be not concurred in. The motion was adopted by a viva voce vote, and then Mr. Curtis moved that tho bill be referred to a conference committee of four, with instructions to put it in such shape as to make it satisfactory to the Democrats in both houses. The motion prevailed and the Speaker ap pointed, on tno part or the House, 31essrs. Schmuck and Curtis. Tho resolution was also adopted by the Senate later in the day. and Senators Thompson of Marion and Hudson were named as members of the committee. Leon Uailey still insists that unless he is provided for in the bill it shall not become a law, and he seems to have the snnport of several Democratic Senators. One of the Senate amendments killed bv the House provided that the board should not improve any street until twothirds of the property-owners had signed a petition asking that such improvement be made. It is understood that tho men who expect to be members of the board objected to that clause, because they thought it would limit their operation, and the plan now is to Teduce the number of necessary petitions to one-half. The other amendment stricken out bv the Honse vesterday was that providing that no stockholder of any company or corporation doing business in any way with the city snouia ie n memoer oi ine Doard. If that amendment is not reinstated. Mr. .lohn P. Frenzel will have an opportunity to serve on tne uoaru. Will EmbarraM the- Democrats. The Barrett bribery bill was rassed by the Senate yesterday afternoon by a vote of ; to 4. Those who voted against it were Senators Kennedj-, Mount, Boyd and DeMotte. Three bills on the same subject were introduced in tho Senate, and although each contained commendable features, the committee indorsed the one of which Sena tor Barrett is the author, as tho desirable measure. It was thoroughly discussed, and was slightly amended. As passed, it provides that any person, being a candidate for nomination to any ofiice of profit or trust under the Constitution or laws of this State, or the United States, before any con rcntion held by any political party, or at any primary election, wjio loans, pa3 s, or gives, or promises to maa, pay or givo any money or other thiug of value to any dclecrnte or elector, or anv other nern fi- th purpose of securing the vote or inlluence of the delegate, elector, r person, for his nomination, shall, nion conviction, be lined in any sura not more than five hundred nor less than one hundred dollars, and disfranchised aud rendered incapable of holding any thee of profit or trust within this State for any determinate ptriod, not less than fight yc3rs. and if nominated shall be lntlizibie to hold the ofiice. It is further provided that anv nerson be ing a delegate to any convention held by any political party, or an elector at anv primary election for the purpose of making a nomination to any ofiice, asks, demands or receives, enner uirectiv or indirectly, any money or other thiuirof value fromanv candidate for nomination to any office, o'r - . . . . . . . irom any person ior or on behalf oi sucn candidate, to vote for or use his influence in behalf of such candidate, shall be fined in any snm not more than nor less ti .an siOO. ana shall bo disfranchised and ren

A person convicted of a violation of this section, under this bill, shall be rendered incapable of holding tho office to which he was elected. Section 4 nrovides that "whoever asks. demands or receives of any candidate for nomination to any ofiice by any political party or convention, or at any primary election, or of any candidate for any omce under tho Constitntion or laws of this State, or of the United States, any money or other thing of value, not then due and owing, to vote or labor for, or use ms mnuence in behalf of such candidate, or to se cure the vote, labor or mtiuence of any other person or persons for such candidate, or to induce him or any other person to write, print, publish or speak anything in hehalf of. or to refrain from writing, printing, publishing or saying anything in any way derogatory to such candidate, shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined in any sum not more than nor less than $300, and disfranchised and rendered incapable of holding any ofiice of profit or trust in tnis Mate for any determined penou noi less than ten vearsr and such demand or request of a candidate shall be prima facie evidence that it was made for such pur pose." I ho next Kection contains a provision that any person who shall fraudulently diminish the number of ballots deposited in a ballotoox, or who shall fraudulently mate any erasures or alterations of any kind upon any tally-sheet, poll-book, list of voters or election returns deposited therein, shall be fined in anv sum not more than Si .000 nor .less than SrK), and imprisoned in the State prison not more than ten nor less man two years, and disfranchised, and rendered in capable of holding any oihee of proht or trust in this State for any determinate period not less than ten years. -i.no nuai section proviues mat uuv prison suspected of beinir miiltv of violating the act ma be summoned either before the grand jury, or in the Circuit Court, and compelled to testify in relation to the same; but no person so compelled or required to give testimony shall be prosecuted or puoished thereafter for any act done by iiini aDout which he was so compelled totestitv. t A a " Aft 111 senator .Mount, in voting acrainst ine imi, said he would have more faith in any elec tion bills the Democrats mieht pass if it did not reouire 83.000 votes to elect a Re publican Congressman in this State, while 2fi.000 would elect a Democrat. He thought the bill was unjust, because it might prevent a candidate from hiring a person to work for him in a legitimate .way, and he believed the gross wrongs already existing should 1k corrected by the Democratic party before it enacted any more electiou laws. The bill has been made a Democratic caucus measure, and will be passed by tho iiouse early this week. Legislative Notes. Mr. TTnfThpoa hill nntlinriTiticr ihft Sehonl Board of Indianapolis to raise the city-li-brarv tax from 3 to 5 cents on the $100 was passed by the Senate yesterday morning. Mr. Hughes's bill giving the Indianapolis Mr. Loop's bill providing that the inmates of the Deaf and Dumb Institution shall be permitted, to set tvne for the annual report of the institution, has been engrossed by tne House. The school-book bill was returned to the Iiouse yesterday without the Governor's approval. It had become a law, however, by reason of having been in his possession over tnreo days. . Senator Smith's bill, making it a felonv for bank officials to receive deposits after a bank had suspended payment of funds on account of insolvency, was defeated in the senate yesterday morning. The members of the Iiouse see no harm in Sunday base-ball. A bill making it illegal to play the game on Sunday came up for action yesterday, and was immediately referred to the committee on swamp lauds. The Beaver lake bill was engrossed bv the J louse yesterday. Tho measure is the one which provides that the swamp lands, tho title to which has so long been in controversy, shall be sold to the people at 37 1-2 cents per acre. C The bill legalizing tho Consumers' Gas-" trust Company, and empowering the trustees of the company to vote the stock as a unit, was passed by the Senate last even ing, it now only needs the Governors signature to become a law. The resolution offered bv Senator Thomp son, of Jasper, Friday, calling for a reconsideration of the vote by which the Cox homestead bill was passed was laid on the table yesterday morning by the Senate. The opposers of the bill are making an ear nest enort to defeat it in the House. A resolution was passed bv the Demo cratic members of the Senate allowing Secretary Green Smith and Assistant-secretary Carter each $400 extra pay foi their services during this General Assembly. The Kepublicans protested against such unjust squandering of the public money, but it did no good. Senator Barrett's bill providing for the establishment of night-schools was passed to a third reading by the House yesterday morning, as it passed the senate it made it obligatory upon school trustees to open night-schools upon the petition of twenty or more school patrons. As amended by the House.it makes .the opening of the schools discretionary with tho trustees. The militia bill, which passed the House Friday, was reported upon favorably by the Senate committee on military affairs yesterday. The bill requires that one State encampment suaii do neiu eacn year, ana provides! that each company shall be entitled to $10 per month for armory rent. It is also provided that each militiaman shall bo allowed $3.50 per year for the purchase of uniforms. cont. tr thA Senjite nia nnnnintmpnta rf members of the Stato Board of Health. The Kepnblican members asked to have tho appointments confirmed at once, but the uemocraiic memoers oojecieu, anu tne nominations were referred to tho committee on executive appointments, which agreed to report upon them on Monday. As the majority have on the calendar a bill taking . A. A. - A. - 1 1 .1 .1 tno appointments out ot me uauus oi tue Governor it is not likely that they will be confirmed. The township library bill, drawn by State Librarian-elect Dunn, and introduced in both branches of tho General Assembly, has has been killed by the Senate. Tho bill passed tho House last week by a good majority, but when it came up for passage in the Senate yesterday morning it was defeated by a vote of 11 to 28. It was opposed on tho ground that it would be expensive to the tanners of the State, and would bo of no practical benefit to the people. Senator Mount, who ably represents the farming element, spoke at length against the bilk lie said that many efiorts had been made to establish township libraries, and that all had failed TRAVELING TO WASHINGTON. The People Who Left Yesterday Over the Several Lines to Attend the Inauguration. Yesterday afternoon ten well-filled sleeping coaches left the Union Station for Washington. Seven went over the C, I.

IDEAS OP A GIFTED WOMAN

3Irs. Livermore Lectures Twice to Largo and Highly Pleased Audiences. She Tells Young People of the Civil War, and Eloquently Speaks to Older Folks of the Future of This Country. Mrs. Mary A. Livermore delivered two lectures in this city yesterday. In the afternoon she addressed tho children at Plymouth Church on "Stories of the Great Struggle," which was in the shape of an historical sketch of the civil war, recited in a most charming and entertaining manner. Preceding and following her lecture the children sang in chorus several martial hymns, which were aptly appropriate to the occasion. Last night the church, both the lower floor and the galleries, was again filled with listeners, it being the last in the regular lecture course. Mrs. Livermore was introduced by Horace McKay, who announced that the intention of having her preach in this city to-day could not be met, as she would be compelled to till an engagement in Cincinnati this afternoon. Mrs. Livermore had for her subject "A Dream of To-morrow," the dream for the future being a prophetic view into America's career, prefaced by a brief resume of the past and present conditions of tho human race. It has been, she claimed, one of f gradual improvement. Humanity has een, like some great ship, launched by the one great Captain, who nas so framed one generation that it can not look into tho future of the next. There is no statesman, however shrewd, that can predict the condition of his country fifty years hence. Each generation has prepared the way for the next, leaving something of practical value for its use, and the sum total of these gifts, involuntarily given, make up the wealth of this world. Plato entertained this idea in his "Kepublic," Sir Thomas Moore in his "Eutonia," and Jesus and His apostles in their talk of the new heaven and the new earth. There is no study so fascinating as the history of civilization, and historians say that the agencies that have built it up are war, famine, pestilence, the changing of watercourses, and the advent of some great expounder, as Moses aud Jesus. But God's greatest agency by which He trains the nations is national hindrance. He has chiseled and polished the peoples of the world bv means of struggles and opposition, until He will place before our astonished gaze the perfect civilization that is to stand out like a marble statue in the future. Tho men of this generation are richer than their forefathers, not only because they have inherited their knowledge, but because they have better brains, and better tools in every way with which to work. The German scientists tell us that there is no mistaking the superiority of the human mind to-day over that of a century ago, and that wo are all endowed with a sixth sense. This, they explain, is that which enables us to grasp tho marvels of hypnotism, somnambulism, and clairvoyance. The labor-saving machinery ho extensively used in this day and ago seems almost incredible, but a hundred years hence it will all seem crude to that which will then be iu use. That accomplished, the work of man will be to build up the architecture of his soul, which, however, must not have been neglected in the meantime. International athnity plays no small part in the upbuilding of the nations of the globe. There is no such thing as a foreign nation to us, for wo are all so united in the higher walks of life that what one does interests all. Germany and France conld not engage in a war, nor the Bank of England fail but what tho whole world would feel tho shock. Mrs. Livermore paid a high tribute to the inventions of the age, to the telegraph, the cablegraph, the telephone and the mechanical improvements. "I was at my home," she said, "when your grand and noble President from Indiana was elected to his high office, and within six hours from the time the polls were closed, I heard men shouting themselves hoarso in the streets, crying out 'Harrison is elected! Harrison is elected and their unbounded joy , was based upon the actual truth that had flashed across the wires. It had penetrated every city and town of this great continent, and had cveu been sent across the waters before the average man was asleep. How different in the days when William Henry Harrison was a candidate for that same ofiice. 1 was in southern Virginia at the time, and well do I remember that it was six weeks after the election had occurred that there were sutficient returns in to warrant even a safe guess as to who was tho successful candidate. And this gTeat change is marked in every line. We have watched the career of tne London Times almost as rapidly as it has been published, und we have seen its sudden downfall no less quickly. Wo watched the Emperor of Germany through his wearisome journey to death, and every morning we were informed, in our cable dispatches, of how he had spent the night almost as soon as was his own wife." Leaving the subject of inventions and discoveries tho speaker next touched upon the advantages in our possession to-day. Nature has given us but three things of our own. earth on which to stand, air to fill our U lungs and light for our eyes. Indeed, it was claimed, that we are gradually being robbed of the first, for we are ncing compelled to pay a high tax for standing room, and there may be a time, the lecturer thought, when men will combine and attempt to form a trust on the last two. Man has always craved for power, and to-day he is rushing on in his headlong search for what the Creator has intended for him. Ho has educated hands and an educated brain; he has gathered the great forces of fire, heat, electricity and water under his control, and most important of all he has learned that all these forces are but different manifestations of one force the eternal power of God. Tho great mistake of men to-day is to overwork the body in their attempt to have tho mind rank nigh. T am dying, worn out," were the last words of O. P. Morton, Indiana's great war Governor, but they were uttered at the age of fifty-four, when the physical man should have been at its prime. Every injury to the mind is an injury to the body, but Americans seem to fail to comprehend it. Men are dwarfing their brains by ruining their bodies by tobacco and whisky women by tight lacing and slavery to fashion.. "My dream of to-morrow," said the lecturer, in conclusion, "predicts better bodies for the race. We are dying off so early that we are inclined to disbelieve in old age. Look at Gladstone, who, at the age of seventy-nine, has put more honesty and conscience in government; man has anv other ruh)r of i no age. Cheers. My dream demands the addition of industrial educa tion to our schools and private academics. Eight-tenths of our bo3's and girls are compelled to get their own livinc outside of the professions, and while they should all Iia rrt urn toil tncretbpr 1111 tn o u,fnin nnint there is a place where their training should separate. iy uream comprehends a complete solution of the temperance nnestion. which can only be brought about by the total annihilation of tho liouor traffic. Cheera.1 This can only come through an amendment to the national Constitution, and this in time can only bo secured bv the votes of three-fifths of the States, which requires that they themselves insert such an amendment in their constitution. We have to-day four States as grand examples of this policy, and in three others, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Massachusetts, the nnestion is pending. "Wo will carry it in Massachusetts, because it is a Bepublican State, and this temnerance movement is purely and originally a Repub lican oue. Aiy uream insists upon a solution of the labor question, which cannot como until you have settled the temperance question. Corporations must abate their greed lor money, aud profits must be shared, but you may give vourwnrkinmnan all the money -he wants, and still give him wniSKy, anu you nave not reached the solution of the question at all. My dream comprehends also the nationalization of labor and the encouragement of the great humani tarian movements now on foot. I am not aiming to predict any millenium, but as I stand here to-night, not far from the time when I shall make mvexit from rmMir lif 1 feel sure that there is a emmW lime. coming for the people that are to live after us. i ieeitnat we aro neanng the time vi iicn "In the long days of Cod, Tn the lone paths untrod.

PURPOSES OF TEMPERANCE WOMEN. The Exhibit to Be Made at the Taris Fair Un der the Control of an Indiana Lady. It is doubtful if there has been a busier woman in the city in the past six months than Mrs. Josephine I Nichols, superintendent of the fairs and exposition departments of the Women's Christian Temperance Union. She has been making arrangements for the representation of that organ ization, both world's and national, at the World's Fair, to be held in Paris the coming summer. The fair will open on May 5 and close the last of October. The department ovet which Mrs. Nichols has control is the only one under the control of women, but there is to be strictly no woman's depart ment, as there is at the united States fairs and expositions. The object of the W. C. T. II. in going to France is to arouse an interest in temperance? work, and it is all to bo on the line of total abstinence. Thirty countries will be represented, in each of which women have taken a stand on the temperance question, and the correspondence with these several countries has been added to the labor of making all tho arrangements for this feat ure of the exposition. IheworK is about finished and the final preparations for the opening will bo made 111 Paris. Mrs. Nich1 . a. - c : 11.11 ' , t ois s associate is irs. .uanou ju diiui-, ui Boston, and ladies of England and France. Very encouraging answers have been received in reply to the circulars and letters sent out to South Africa, the Hawaiian Islands, China, Japan (for the latter country Mrs. Nichols has had valuable assistance, in the way of translations, from Sho Nemoto, a Japanese student at the University of Vermont), Australia, Ceylon, India, Turkey, Siam, Sweden, Norway all the countries in Europe. In the whole fair Germany is only represented iu the W. C. rp IT The exhibit will be in the educational de partment. The decorations from the United States will consist of silk flags, (5x3 feet, with gilt stars and lettering, and the coat-of-arms for each State, There will be many silk and satin banners. National nags and banuers from each of the countries represented will also bo used. The emblem of the national W." C. T. U. is the trailing arbutus, and a magnificent banner of cream-white satin is being painted in this design bv one of tho leading artists of New York. Tho pond liby is the world's emblem, and enters largely in tho several designs used. These handsome banners, flags and badges are entered in the departments for Imzes, and at the New Orleans Exposition astyear eleven first prizes were taken. Tho prizes arc given to those who make tho article. There are also to be shown hand some shields, made of inlaid wood and min erals. There are forty different lines of work in tue W . i;. I. IJ., and eacn one will bo represented. Mrs. Nichols has already shipped more than $6,000 worth of temperance literature for free distribution. Of this amount there aro oO.OOO Union Signals, the official organ of the world's and the national W. C. T. U. There will also be added to this vast amount of literature to bo given away, pa pers from China and Japan, and all the countries where women are taking hold of the work of spreading the gospel of temperance. airs, rsicnois nas aiso secured ntry feet square in the social economy exhibit. This is to be out doors, under tho trees.

Mrs. Nichols will have a fountain of fresh. cold drinking water and souvenir glasses on one side will be tho "World's Fair, Paris. 1KS9," and on the other the W orld's and National Temperance Union." In England, after a bitter light, the word "Chris tian ' was omitted, and only belongs to the union in the United States. Mrs. Nichols expects to have a collection of pictures of .representative women of twenty-five countries. The "suffragists" and the "International Council of Women" will send delegates. She has long been identified with tho great temper ance work, and has been one of tho societv's most earnest workers ana successiui lecturers. one represented the W. C. T. U. at New Orleans, and had tho only place in the whole exposition where drinking water could be procured, many days using 400 pounds of ice for cooling. She is pre-eminently qualified to fill the position to which she has been assigned. Mrs. Nichols expects to sail for England the :20th of this month, where she will be the guest of Mrs. Margaret Bright Lucas, a sister of Hon. John Bright, and will speak in tho meetings of the union before going to France. She will visit the countries of Europe before returning home some time in November. The Methodist Magazine.

DELAYED BY ACCIDENT.

The Train of the Seventieth Survivors Wrecked in the Yards at Cincinnati Tho Seventieth Regiment survivors, on their way to Washington, were delayed three hours by an accident to their train at Cincinnati, Friday evening. Leaving the Central Passenger Station in that city at 8 o'clock, the train went west to a switch, changed to another track, and was proceeding to the C, W. & B. yards to make the transfer to that line. Tho first coach was the Oscaloosa, In which sat some twenty-five or thirty of the veterans, who had provided themselves with lunch and were at supper. Among them were Colonel Merrill, 'Squire Smock, A. C. May, . B. Sulgrove, Wm. McCracken and A. L. Ferguson. When the first coach, the Oscaloosa, had reached tho east side of Park street there was a sudden thundering, crashing of timbers. Glancing out of the windows, the passengers could see a locomotive pressing into the fide of the coach. The first point of contact was opposite where Mr. Laing and 'Suuire Smock sat. Just after the crash ou the south side there followed another on the other side. The coach seemed hemmed in between two objects, which were crushing it to pieces. At the north side of the tracks is a twostory brick house, used by the yard-master as his headquarters. The Oscaloosa was pinned between the colliding engine and this house. When they came together the coach had been thrown against tho house, tearing out a large portion of its side, and causing considerable damage. While the passengers and crowd attracted to the wrecK stood watching the wreck, they heard loud cries from within the house. The trainmen went to work with a will, and quickly extricated a young man buried under a mass of brick. As soon as taken out ho regained his feet and walked away, his injuries amounting only to trilling bruises about the left side. He was a stranger, unknown to the railroad men, who had dropped into the house a few minutes before the accident. The approach of the train had caused the others to go out, leaving the young man sitting in the corner where the coach first struck. The bricks had fallen in and caught him. but the weight had not been sufficient to seriously injure him. The train did not leave Cincinnati until after 10 o'clock. The Seventieth at Washington. Washington, March 2. The special train carrying the members of the Seventieth Indiana, General Harrison's old regiment, and a Wagner sleeper from Terre Haute, filled with members of the Columbia Club, of that city, arrived at 8 o'clock this evening. The regiment Is accompanied by tho military band, of Topeka, Kan., who enlivened various Southern points along the route of the Baltimore fc Ohio railroad with patriotic airs, and at Harper's Ferry played 'John Brown's Tlody," a touching tribute from a Kansas band.

Filbeck una teorre W. Fans, t hainuau of the Republican committee of Terre Haute. The design for the General is an elaborate ship of 8tate; that for Mr. Harrison, a lar?e stand of roses and culla lilies, surmounted by two white doves, and that for the baby, a lame basket louquet. In the hotel, when the flowers were unpacked, they evoked praises from the hundreds of guests who miw them. The presentation was made in one of the upper parlors, ltoth (ieneral Harrison and the ladies received them graciously, and with hearty expressions of appreciation of the "remembrance from home," as the tieneral put it.

Psoriasis 5 years, covering lace, head, and entire body with wfciie scabs. Skin red, itchy, and bleeding. Hair all gone. Spent hundreds of dollars. Pronounced incurable. Cured by Cuticura Remedies. My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my left cheek, spreading across my nose, and almost covering my face. It ran Into my eyes, and tho physician was afraid I would lose my eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head, and my hair all fell out, until I was entirely bald headed It then broke out on my arms and shoulders, v: til my arms were Just one sore. It covered vr" entire body, my face, head and thculders ' the worst. The white foabs fell constantly fr my head, shoulders, and arms; the skin wot i thicken and be red and very Itchy, and would crack and Meed if scratched. After spending many hundreds of dollar, I was pronounced incurable. I heard of the Cuticura Ileniedies. end after using two bottles Cuticura lte?olvent, I could see a chaugc; and after I had taken four bottles, I was almost cured; and when I had used six bottles of Cuticura Kesolvent and one box of Cuticura, and one cake of Cuticura t?oap, I was cured oft he dreadful disease from which I had suffered for live years. I thought the disease would leave a very deep car, but the Cuticura Remedies cured it without any scars. I cannot express with a pen what I suffered before using the Cuticura Remedies. They saved my life, and I feel it my duty to recomend them. My hair is restored as good as ever, and so is my eyesight.

Catarrh to Consumption Catarrh in its destructive force Ptaiils next to and undoubtedly lends ou to consumption. It is, therefore, singular that thoe aillictnl with thU fearful disease should not make it tho jcrt of their lives to rid themselves of it. Deceptive rcii'fdieF concocted by ignorant pretender to medical knowledge have weakened the confidence of the gvat majority of (tunerer in all advertised remedies.
