BORN BLIND.

Can Now" See as Well as AnyoneCredit to Whom Credit is Due, The increasing interest taten in the visit of Dr. Barker, the oculist and 'aurist, was the means of inducing the scribe to call on him for personal interview and lnvestieation, for the benefit of the reader of the Sentinel. Having made onr errand known the Doctor said: "While I am advertisent;, paying mj money, and doing all I can to disseminate general information in regard to the malformations and preservation of the eve, ear, nose and throat, and establishing the superiority of my new, rational and exact treatment for the curable affections cf these organs, lam a little too modest to tali about my success ; bat would prefer you to interview any of this long list of ratients, who can speak from experience." Haricg heard of his restoring the sight of a Line-year-old child of Mrs. Ott, that was born blind, the writer got her address 36 Spann avenne called npon her, and Inquired if she ksew anything about Dr. barker. 'I oneht to," wss the prompt reply. "Why, has he treated any of your family 7" 'Yes, Indeed: he cured my little girl, that was born blind." "What was the nature of her difficulty?' "Well, she was weakly when quite yonng, and acted strangely. We did not know what was the matter. After doctor log for a long time, the physician said one day, 'do you äknow that child is blind, or nearly so? Of course this was a great surprise to us, bat npon investigation we found it true. Then we did not kaow what to do. It went on and on, until we heard of Dr. Barker. We went to him. He said she had cataracts, and that he bad a treatment which would give her gcod sight in a short time. Good as his word, he cured her, and now she Is all rieht." "Then you are pleased with the result of his treatment?" "I think we ought to be. I believe he is the greatest doctor to be found anywhere. You oupht to see a child he cured lor a neighbor a few doors from here." Having got the address, we knocked at the door 14 Spann avenue where lives Mis Priegnitz, a very intelligent German lady, ot whom we inquired whether she had any personal knowledge of Dr. Birker. "I had'a child that was ternbiy crosseyed ana blind in one eye. My feelings about it are tetter imagined than described. I was anxiocs to have her cured, consequently made diligent inquiry what was best todc. I saw one lady whom some oculist had treated; gave her chloroform, and it tcok her a long time to get well; had an awiul time, besides she had to pay t A which yen know is a big fee for a person in moderate circomst&nces. I was almost discouraged. When Dr. Ba rker came here labt year I went to him, found how -quickly and perfectly he treated such taut) I just had her eit dowa, and he cured her. You have no idea what a short time it took. I hardly knew myself, he did it eo quickly. I ehall always be thankf al that he came to Indianapolis. There was a lady here the other day that some eyedoctor had tried to cure, and such a botch a he made cf it. I felt sorry for her. When the saw my child she said: 'Oh, I wish I had waited for Dr. Birker to fix my eyes,' and well she might, for I don't think stich another doctor ever did or ever will visit Indianapolis." The scribe left with the impression that truly he must be a great man in his profession, and that those needing his services would be false to their own interests if they fail to consult him.

THE TALK OF GOTHAM

Editcnal ChaEjts of Hi 9 Keif York Herild Oiber Newjpiper Go:s:p. The Auaiehists of New York and Ilrook. jn Moat ana II is Arrest Gossip of the State. Special Bentinel New York letter. Niw York, NoTember 18. The newspaper changes of the last week hare been numerous, some of them important: and not a few of tbem are the direct result of the recent election. The campaiga was largely influenced by the newspapers, and it ia cot Bicgnlar that they are effected by the result of the election. The Herald and Telegram, both owned by James Görden Bennett, have new edi tors. Key. George W. Hepworth has been monkeying with the editorial page of the Herald for two or three years past, and he made a hodg pods of it. Ha ran it without purpose or idea, and It came to be retarded generally with derision. Tail weak nets of Its most important page was con temporaroua with the sudden actiyity displaced by the World, and undoubtedly helped the World to mnch'of its great pros perity. Much of the World's cam in circulation was a direct loss to the Herald ; and without question the low must be at tribnted in part to the editortal page. Mr. Hepworth has been succeeded by John Russell Yonng, formerly of the Tribune, then of the Standard, (since dead); once before he was connected with the Herald. Whateyer may be said of ouDgs' ideas of J property right in news, nobody will deny bat he is a natural as well as a trained newspaper man. He probably knows more about the value of news and the drift of public opinion than the rest of the Herald staff, including the proprietor. His grace as a writer is well known, and has lonz been recognized, He is eminently fitted to drag the Herald editorial page out of the Blough of inanity into which it has fallen; and Mr. Bennett may again owe to Young a debt of gratitude he is not likely ever to bt able to pay. Julius Chambers, the managing editor, who has been in Talis for months past trying to rejavinate the Register and News under the name of the Paris Herald, U on his way back tohis old seat. The former editor of the Tan's News, Samuel Chamberlain, has been made editor of the Telegram. This necessitated the removal of Mr. Edward Flynn and Kobert Morris. The former takes charge of what is known as "the obituary dest" of the Herald, and will look after the biographies of.the living great, whose careers, when ended, t re to be chronicled in the Herald the day alter their demise. Mr. Morris becomes the business manager of the Telegram, and will endeayer to do for its finances what he never could do with his own take care of them. The Graphic, as I have announced, was recently sold to a syndicate of gentlemen headed by the energetic President of the American Electric Manufacturing Company, Mr. Edwards H. Goff. There has already been decidedly apparent improvement in the style and character of the paper. All parties in its management are agreed that it is idle to at tempt to make a newspaper of the Graphic at three cents in competition with each active papers as the Evening Saaand Evening World at one cent, and they will, af ter a brief period issue only a sirgle edi tion careiuuy printed and intended for the fireside rather than the street. Colonel Frank A. Borr, the new editor, has gone to work with vigor, and has introduced some new men on the force. Mr. Clin cv has retired as managing editor, and Barr now manages himself. Mr. E. C. Brown, the business manager, was for years attached to the paper, but not in harmony with its policy. He remains to carry oat his ideas oi developing the business part of the enterprise. I do not know many of the others of the force, The ubiquitous Keen an author of "The Money Makers" and some other novels turns up as an edtonal writer, and, as usual, carries with him his double-barreled ink-stand one barrel filled with ink, the other with aquafortis. As usual, when he gets to work he not infrequently dips his pen into the wrong ink stand, ana is just as apt as not to write oi ms mends with aqaaiortls. www You will hear at a distance of the crest fall of in the circulation of the World and the big boom given ihe San by the recent election, me truth, reduced to a line or two, is that the World has lost a good many readers, bet does not feel it yet, for tee papers are not returnable, and the loss falls on the newsdealers. I fancy that the Herald gets the largest part of the gain from this source, that is the eviaence of the newsdealers, and of my own observa tion. Since the hanging of the four Anarchists in Chicago last Friday, the police of this city have been kept busy looking for Herr Most, and his fellow ruffians. His fiery speeches made at the Anarchist meeting the other night are calculated to eßect some of his hearers, and lead them to crime, in which case under the laws of this state Most could be prosecuted as Ta principal. If murder was committed as a result of Most'a language, he can be hanged, and in this community it would be dimeult to lind a jury of twelve men who would have any scruples about convicting him. lie la at this writing under arrest. Acrote the East river the situation is even more serious that it is here, and the Brooklyn police officials have detectives following the leaders of the Anarchists day and night An article in the Times a few days ago of an account of a meeting in Brooklyg where the speakers advised the immediate hanging of one of the reporters has enraged the Anarchists, and some of them have threatened to alll the writer. Chief of Polle Campbell discovered a plan to furnish every reporter in town with a dynamite bomb, and he has warned tnese young writers for the press to refuse to take any packages coming to them by messengers unless they know just what tbey contain. Two of the reporters have in addition received personal warnings from friends at present working on the Anarchist paper, Volks Zaitung. These communications verified the statement of the police that a plan for the wholesale destruction or the newspaper fraternity has been generated. Mrs. Potter's play of "Loyal Love" Is hardly worthy the study she has given it. The lady looks very lovely in the char acter of Inez ; but it is a poetic, dreamy character, not en active being, and the lady is unable to convey her dreamy idea and moods to her audiences. a Mrs. Henrv E. Abbey armeared onTo.es day night as Naomi Tighe in Robertson's beautiful play of "SokooJ." and again con--srmed the .opinion tl&t she is a finished somedienne. Ehe has a strikingly hande0me personal appearaa.ee in the paru The hit of "The Martyr," as produced last weei at the Madison Square Theatre, was made) by Miss Annte Russell, who plays the only bright character In the piece. Wm. F. O. Snaats. K parka KsljcaU4ii Accepted. WAFHisGTOjr. November 16. Commis sioner Sparks thla morning received from the President a letter accepting bis resignation, to take effect to-day. The letter is dated vest-day. and while decllaiog, through courtesy to the President, to give It to the pre, in commmioner aaio hat it was extremely kind in tone, aod f iprtssed the President's full appreciation

of his services to the country as Commissioner of the General Land Office. "I feel like a galley slave just released," said the

commie&toner, "ana out ior me iac ma. I am indeed sick. I would be in the best ot spirits." "Of course," he continued. "this is cot a pleasant ending oi my administration, ana wnen i reflect that I have given nearly three years of almost incessant, hard, brain racking work to the cause oi the people, for but little more than my board; when 1 remember mat i am at least CtOworeecfftoday than I was the day I came to Washington, and when I review my work of the last three years and positively know that my course has been the right and honest one, and that my position in the case at Issue is unquestionably correct, why when I think of all these, with a consciousness of having done my whole duty, fearlessly, I cannot help wishing it were otherwise. Yet I am by no means unhappy." Slid the Commis sioner, "I need rest and I shall remain in Washington during the coming winter and take it easy." Assistant Commission er btockslagerwillbe acting commissioner until Mr. Sparks' successor is appointed. STRANGE SUPERSTITIONS. The Belief in Witchcraft In Southern In diana Eilty Tears Ago. Vevay, Ind., Reveille. About sixty years ago many of the peo ple residing in the neighborhood of East Enterprise were possessed or a delusion that witchcraft were a reality, and that a number of their neighbors were full Hedged witches, possessed of remarkable powerj, even to the saddling and bridling a man and with sharp spurs riding him all over the worst roads a distorted mindcouliims.'n". The next morning the poor man would be so tired and sore tat he could hardly move. At other times the housewife would churn half a day and would not get a particle of butter. The only remedy was to take an old herseshoe that had been -worn on the left foot of a baiuf nee horse and heat it hot and drop it Into the churn. which was prett ycertain to expel the ternwe wi:ch. One who tried the experiment said: "When I dropped the red-hot shoe into the churn I heard something run off the roof of the house, and I smelt hair just as iure as you are born, and in five minutes X had a churn nearly mil oi butter. J.ne next day I eaw the woman that I believed had bewitched the butter, and her hair was crisped on one side in the very shape of a horseshoe." If the aboTe remedy failed, the next thing to do was to draw a life-size picture of the supposed witch and nail it upon a tne, and then run a 6ilver bullet out of a silver dollar and thoot the imsge. The last act was considered a complete cure. One of the ardent believers in witches, a man In the prime of life, possessed of fair ser.se in other matters, told in our hearing what a tryicg ordeal he had passed through a few evenings before. He had been to visit the sick, and was returning about 10 o'clock through the fields, often climbing high fences, i inally,a? he got up on a high ten-rail fence, with one leg thrown over tne top rail, he saw standing on the other side cne whom he knew to be a "witch." She said LOthirg, but put a spell on him that riveted him to the spot, and he said he was as speechless as Lot's wife when she was turned into salt. When daylight came the witch vanished, and he got over the fence and went home. He says the top rail was a very sharp one, and he didn't get over the soreness for a month. V hen the hens failed to hatch their eztrs it was laid on thelwitches. The witches always did their worst work on Friday. If the rail fences fell down while they were covered with sleet and ice the witches were blaimed with it If a calf got choked on Fotatoee,! the witches were responsible, t was a fact not to be wondered at .that every cne of these believers in witches be lieved the "woild to be Cat." Many of them would have hung the supposed witches, as tteir ignorant foreiatbers did in an early day. if they bad been possessed of the power. Two of the men swapped wives for a month or so and it was all laid at the doors of those terrible witches. "COME BACK, WILHELM IN . !" Nye Takes an A mugirrg Fall Out of the Ssrant Girt jaeation. Bill Nye has had n attack of the servant girl, and emits this sorrowing screed; PERSONAL Will tbe youDR woman wbo edited tbe gravy department and corrected proof at our pie foundry for two days and tfcen jumped tbe game on the evening that we were to hare our clergyman to dine with us"please come back or write to 22 f'ark Row, saying trhere irrt me rracsers ana cneoser come back. Wühelmina, and be our little snnbeam once more. Com back and cluster around our hearthstone at so much per cluster. II you think best, we will quit having company at the house, especially people Who co not belong to your set. We will also strive, oh, so hard, to make it pleasanter for you in every way. If we bad known rour or tve years ago that children were offensive to you it would have been different. Bot it is too late now. All we can do now -la to shut them up in a barn and feed them through a knot-hole. If they shriek loud enough to give pain to jour throbbing brow, let no one know, and we will overcome any false Bentiment we may feel toward them and send them to the Tombs. Since you went away we can see how wicked and selfith we were and how little we considered your comfort. We miss your glad smile, also your Tennessee marble cake and your lata pie. We have learned a valuable lesson since you went away, and it is that the blame should not have rested on me alone. It should have been divided equally, leaving me to bear half of it and my wife the other half. Where we erred was In dividing np the blame on the basis of tenderloin steak or peach cobbler, compelling you to bear half of it yourself. That will not work, Wilhelmina. Blame and preserves do not divide up on the same basis. We are now in favor of what may be called a sliding scale. We think you will like this better. We also made a grave mistake in the matter of niehts out. While voune. I formed the wicked and pernicious hzbltof having nights out myself. I panted for the night air, and would go a long di tsnce and stay out a lone time to sret enough of it for a mess and then bring it home in a paper bar, but I can see now that it is time for Je to remain indoors ana give young people nie yoursen a chance, Uhelmina. Bo if I can do anything evenings while you are out that will assist you, such as stoning raisins or neighboring windows, command me. I am no cook, of course. but I can peel apples, ox grind coffee, or hold your head when you need sympathy. I could also soon learn to do the plain cooking, I think, and friends who come to see us after this have agreed to bring ineir dinners. There is no reason why harmony should not be restored among us and the old sun light come back to our roof tree. Another thing I wish to write before I lose this humiliating personal. I wish to take back my harsh and bitter words about your singing. I said that you sang like a shingle mill, but I was mad when I said it, and I wronged you. I was mad deived by hanger, and you told me that moth and milk was tne proper thing for a brain worker, and you refused to give me any dope on my dumpling. Goaded to madaeea by this I said that you aang like a fchinele mill, but it was not my better. higher nature that spoke. It was my grosser and more gastric nature that as serled itself, and I now desire to take it back. You da not sing like a aningie mill; at least so much as to mislead a practical ear. yoru voice taj more volume, in J when

your upper register is closed, is mellower than any shingle-mill I ever heard. Come back, Wilhemlna. We need you every hour. After you went away we tried to set the bread to rise aa we had seen yon do it, but it was not a success. The next day it came off the nest with a litter of small, sallow rolls which would easily resist the action of acids. If you cannot comeback, will you please write and tell me how you a're getting along and how yon contrive to insert airholes into home-made bread. Bill Nyie.

NOTED THE1VES JAILED. The Principals In an Immens Band Bobberj Catoglit In Chicago. Chicago, November 1G. Miner and Carson, the fashionable dressedmen who have been in custody here for several days as vagrants, and are to be taken to Boston to answer charges of burglarizing the office of the Roxbnry Gas Co , were identified today as the perpetrators of the largest bond robbery on record, the theft of $170,000 in securities from the office of James Young, a New York real estate broker, abut 187U. The full amount was recovered but no direct evidence could be brought against Car eon, and Miner escaped from a court bailiff tbe day before the case came np. It Is not thought probable that they will again be arraigned for the bond robbery, but will undoubtedly go to the prison for their offense committed in Boston. The story of the bond robbery and the recovery of the securities is, ia msny respects, extraordinary. Young's office was on Nassau street. About January 1, 167;, Mr. Young took from a depository a large quantity of bonds to his officce for the purpose c f cutting off coupons. The bonds were left in charge of a clerk, who, while engaged In cutting off the coupoos, was told that a lame man, Eeated in a carriage outside, wanted to inquire about some property. The clerk put the bonds on a tab e and left the room, closing the door, which was fastened by a spriDg lock. As soon as he had gone, two men, who had been concealed in the floor above, but who could see all tbe movements below, descended and with a chisel opened the door, grabbed the bonds, and escaped by a rear door. Ihey got about $4 0,000 In railroad and government bonds. irom descriptions the detectives were confident Miner, Carson and Frank Hovan were the thieves and set a man to watch Hovan's woman. After watching six weeks the Hovmi woman left for Petersburg, Vs. One of the men followed and arrested the trio just es Miner was to leave for the North to negotiate the sale of the bonds, all of which were found.ra his trunk. They alEO found a package of $10,000 which had been etolen from a Courtland, JM. Y., bank tome time before, and which had bren buried in Florida. Carson and Hovan were cot identified as participants in the Young robbery, nor was any proof brought against the three ror the Coortland robbery. Miner, however, was recognized and was held over. Tne day before his trial he eluded his keeper only to fall Into the clutches of the law again at this late day. LAMAR TALKS. lie will go on the Supreme Bench if a ferat I on, red 11 im. New York, November 16. Secretary Lamar stated last evening to a reporter that in case he was ottered a seat on the Supreme bench he would accept the aoF ointment as the greatest honor or his life, n reference to the rumor that Mr. Don M. Dickinson, of Detroit, would probably be invited to accept a portfolio in President Cleveland's cabinet, Mr. Lamar said that he had no knowledge cf the matter, but he paid a high compliment to the Detroit gentleman, and thought it was no disparagement to his character that he wa, as reported, an active participant In politics. He believed that this might be acceptable to tbe rank and file of the Dem ocratic party, as Mr. Dickinson was not only agcod politician in the hone3t sense of that term, but he was a good Democrat and a good citizen. In regard to Sparks' resignation, be said: "Mr. Bparks' resignation will involve no deflection or abatement from the policy which President Cleveland has established with TefprcTiPA in ttvo rvrcorvaf irn rtf nnr public lands from illegal appropriation by j corporations and land speculators." M.r. : Lamar then paid a tribute to President Cleveland as the actual author of the land reforms which had been inaugurated by this Administration in accordance with the well-known policy of the Democratic party. As to Mr. fcpexks taking the credit for these great achievements, Mr. Lamar only laughed. "The work will go on just the eame when a change is made in the head of the General Lend Office.he said.with con siderable vigor; "no one man is absolutely essential In this government." A Correspondent Who Can Shoot. Lexington, Ky., November 16. Thomas Greene, of Maysville, and Lew Balduin, of.Nicholasville.met in this city this morn ing at half past eleven o clock and Greene killed Baldwin in a shooting affray. Greene is a correspondent of the Commercial Ga zette, and eome months ago wrote a communication concerning the conduct of the election in Jessemine county, charging Baldwin and others with certain unlaw ful acts in the conduct of the election. The poll books of two precincts in Jessemice county were stolen. This, among other things, was charged in Greene's correspondence. To this Baldwin replied, denouncing Greece in the strongest language. When they met in front of the Phoenix Hotel at 11:30 the quarrel was opened and Baldwin denounced Green, calling him all the offensive names at his command. Green being somewhat deaf, either could not hear, or did not choose to resent, and finally Baldwin drew Lis pistol, striking Grenn on the head and afterward firing, but missing:. Green then drew and fired, two of the shots s'rikmg Baldwin on the left shoulder, one of them ranging down and cutting the aorta. Baldwin fired several shota, one of which sliphty cut Gieen on the left side and then he fell dead. Green was carried to a room in the hotel end his wounds were found to be tri fling. A laage number of the friends of each are here and many threats are indulged in, so that more trouble may be expected. A must Spies' Estimate of Lingg. Chicago, November 16. The Arbeiter Zeitung this evening published a letter from Michael Schwab, written in the county jail the day before the execution of the Anarchists'. The letter is printed under the heading "August Spies as a Man," but is devoted to proving that while 8ples and Llngg had different ideas, the editor nevertheless had a high opinion of the bomb-maker. Schwab asserts that when the death watch (Ojborn) informod Spies of Lingg's death, Spies burst into tears, The letter further says that when Fielden. Spies and Schwab were taken to the jail library the afternoon of the day before the hanging to bid goodbye to their families, they were in the room for fully two hours in company with two deputies: that the conversation naturally turned to LIngg's death, and "We all agreed that he was an extraordinary man." Spies sa'd "Llngg was a man of strone principles and could not be frightened back from ideaa he had undertaken as principle. He was Impelled by high ideas. John Brown was such a man. The French revolution had its Danton and Its Marata. and also the African revolution showed characters aim liar to Ltngg." The Arbeiter Zeitung also publishes a letter addressed to tbe wife of Engel by a certain show man offering her sio.000 for the body or Llngg, tne purpose being to place it on exhibition in the different cities throughout the United Etatts,

Possible Change In the Country's Ministry lb Crowa Pilnee'a Health Blunlty of ttoa Raichatax Notes. Eerli. November 19. Copyright, 1887, by the New York Associated Press Though nothing has been officially announced in regard to Prince Bismarck's ;long interview with the Czar, it Is an open secret in diplomatic circles that Prince Bismarck energetically urged the Czar to assist in putting an end to Russia's economic war with Germany. Count Schouvaloff, the Russian Ambassador, had prepared the Czar for Prince Bismarck 8 lice of argument, at the same time supporting the policy of conciliation by advisine acquiescence in the Chancellor's suggestions. As these were directly hostile to M. De Giers, the Czar countermanded the arrangements for the presence of M. De Giers. If Prince Bismarck has succeeded in impressing the Czir with the fact that the incessant attacks on German commerce and the persecutions of German traders in Russia must be stopped before there can be a renewal of the entente cordiale between the two countries, the return of the Czar to St. Petersburg will be signalized by a reconstruction of the ministry. Prince Bismarck is understood to have spoken earnestly and frankly with the Czar, not mincing matters, but stating plainly what personal obstacles existed within the Kassian government and operated against the restoration of amicable relations. If the conditions proposed by Prince Biemark be fulfilled, Finance Minister Visan'gradski, who was a fervent follower and friend of M. Katkoö. will be disumssd; Count Tolstoi will be compelled to give np the Ministry of the Interior, and M. Poosidencstzefi procurator of the synod and intimate adviser of the Czar, will have to cease his open hostility to Germany, and his ostentatious encouragement of French rcvarchists. M. D-j Giers is less dangerions to the Bismarckian policy than are thess three. The tzar is alo ready to throw over M. De Giers. He Is displeased with the itupotance cf his Prime Minister in dalirjg with "ü!garia, and with his failure to check the central European alliance. In conversation, while at Fredersbcrg, the Cztr freely expressed the opinion that M. De Giers was getting too old and wants a rest. Prince Bismarck would gain the whole diplomatic battle if Count Sctouvaloif should succeed M. Da Gier, but an official forecast makes M. Nelidoff, the Russian Ambassador at Constantinople, the Czar's choice, acd indicates that Count Schouvaloff will be transferred to Turkey, his post at Berlin being taken by Earon Mohrenheim. Whatever apprceebmpnt between Rassia and Germany is effected, it will remain without influence on Russia's selections toward the triple alliance. TALK Or THE TRESS. An inspired article in the Pesther Lloyd declares that Russia cannot join the triple alliance, which agreement remains unchangeable till its expiration in 1501. Any of the powers can eliect an approchement with it, but none can modify its original character. Official circles in Berlin do not seem sanguine that the Czar will be able to sweep the German ophobists from his ministry at once. Public and official hatred in Russia against the Germans is so intense that even the autosrat must go softly in modifying his policy. But unless the Czar influences a marked change the existing strained relations will result ere long in an open rupture. The Cologne Gazette concludes a bitter anti-llussian article as follows: "rhe KusBians may rest assured that no further at tempt will be made to draw Kussia to Ger many's side. The policy of Germany will henceforth be devoted to strengthening her relations with powers upon whom sha Väui i vl J n iää vva. tsaAu mj m The isorth German Gazette to-night de nies that Prince Bismarck regards the dis missal of Finance Minister Vischnigradskt and the partisans of the Revanche movement as indispensable conditions of the renewal of friendly relations. The paper denies aleo that the internal arrangements of Russia can ever become subject to an understanding between Russia and Germany or Austria, but these denials are ' taken as designed to soothe Russian jeal ousies which are certain to be aroused to a fuTious pitch if the people become convinced that the Czar has reformed the Government in consequence of the prompt ings of Prince Bismarck. The Cologne Gazette gives prominence to a statement which, it is asserted, is authorized, that large bodies oi Russian troopB, with field guns and immense quantities of munitions, are arriving on the German frontier between Rowao and Winnitza. Tbe increase in railway traffic for military service is so great that it has caused the suspension ot the ordinary traffic on the Kleff and Kovno line for The Moscow Gazette does not cease its attacks on the alliance. The latest article declares that the so-called "League of Peace" baa really an aggmslye character. All indications portend that the interview between the Czar and Emperor William will not much improve the relations between Germany and Russia. TRI5CK WILLIAM'S F0SITI0H. The important announcement is made to-night that owing to the Illness of the Crown Prince, Prince William will, by command of the Emperor, represent his father at all future state ceremonies and receptions. Prince Bismarck since his arrival has held daily conferences with Prince William, who visited the Chancellor within an hour of hta reaching Berlin on Tuesday night. The speech from the throne at the opening of the Reichstag on Thursday will definitely allude to the position of Prince William. The official circle is especially gratified by the Prince's recognition; and all Germany approves a step which will further consolidate the position of Bismarck as leader of German destinies. Prince William does not swerve from his admiration for Prince Bismarck. He is devoted toj the Chancellor'sitheoriesofgood Government and will implicitly submit to his guidance. Prince William's brus3ue. military manner and his occasional isplays of an overbearing temper operate against his acquiring popular affection like bis father, the Crown Prince, who Is pleasant to everybody and is slow to anger. Any intellectual power Prince William possesses has been, bestowed npon practical studies of war tactics and the minutest details of army organization. He la credited with the possession ot abundant common sense, and will be willing to accept the advice of Pricce Bismarck or any other competent minister In questions of higher policy. TEI CKOWH PBIBCK'S COHDITION. There is such a marked improvement in the Crown Prince's condition to-day that Dr. Hovell declares that he even begins to hope for his recovery. The Crown Prince remained Indoors to-day on account of a heavy rainstorm. Dr. Bramanan. first assiatant to Dr. Bergmann, arrived at Can Remo to-day. He Is the surgeon of

approved skill mentioned as bavin? ben tent by the Emperor to wa'.cii the a vUeu reenrrecreof the spelling which endngers the Crown PiiLce's life. He is famoas for the eurecess cf his hand in performing tracheotomy. lie performs m ist ot the operations of this kind in Bariin, where there are 4C0 cases yearly. The Kolnische Wereheraschrift says D:s. Bergrcann and Gerhardt regard the time as inopportune to reply to the official statement of Dr. Mackenzie. This agrees with th advice of the cfiicial press, which deprecates "a dispute at the bedside of a patient upon a topic unfit for a public forum." The an-ti-tobacconists are making capital out of the erroneous report that the Crown Prince's malady is the result of excessive smoking. He smokes very little only an occasional cigarette or a mild c'gar, Daring his campaign he used sometimes to smoke a pipe with a porcelain bowl paiated by tbe Crown Princess. The malady is traceable to hereditary predisposition.-His grandmother, the Queen Louise, died from car cere us tumors on her lungs. Dr. MacKeizie will return to San Remo next week. THE KECHSTAO'S SE6SI3I7. The presence of Prince Bismarck at the opening of the Reichstag is doub'.f oi. He will return to Friedricsruhe to-morrow. The North German Gazet'e, forecasting the work of the session, says that the bill for the insurance of invalid workmen Indicates a condition of the government's era of social reforms. The measure includes journeymen, apprentices, servants receiving wages, assistants in shops and warehouses and crews of German vessels. All euch seventy years of age, or older, will receive a pension of 120 marks, augmenting yearly to 250 marks, the invalid pension of sarre. The Czar's vieit has tended to reanimate the tourse which was especially active to-day. After the announcement that tbe Emperor bad conferred a decoration on Count Scbouvalofl, Russian securities advanced lli percent German investors still ho'd eccording to the estimates of fiaancial experts, 1,500,000 marks of Russian stocks, including government loans and bonds of railroads the payment of which is guaranteed by the Government. Tbe influence o the edict of the Reichs Back stopping advances on Russian securities has been over-estimated. Tbe average amount which the Reicbs Bank had. did not exceed 15,000,000 marks. Private bank s continue to respond tieely to the public demand for advances on Russian securities. The Bjurse expects that large arnoucts of American railroad Btocks will be offered to German invstori among others, the stocks of some of the roatfs with which Mr. Villard is associated. It is not true that the Raichs Bank will extend its edict to advances on all foreign securities, although the Prussian Government has instructed the provincial authorities to watch that foreign securities be ucd es little as pcsdble for deposits and feeds forming a guarantee.

About five years ago I suffered from painful urination and great pain and weakness in tne lower part of my back, pain ia the limbs, bad taste in the mouth, disgust at food, and great mental and bodily depression. I live at 241 York street, Jersey City, and on arriving tome oec night I found a copy o the Speaker Almanac that had been left during the day. I read the article, "What is this Disease tbatis Coming Upon Us?" ; It described my symptoms and feelings better than I could if I had written a whole book. My trouble was indeed "Jike a thief ia tbe night," for it had been dealing npon me unawares tor years. I seutiora bottlo of Shaker Extrac; of Hoots, or Seigel's Byrup, and before I hal taken ouehalf of it I felt the welcome relief, la a few wee s 1 wss like my old self. 1 enjoyel and digested by food.
