Dear Sm and Brother Thii letter is addressed to you in fraternity and brotherly love, hopin that it may be the means of promoting the Weilar of the cause we mutually strive to promote the farmer' alliance. This is a most critical period in the history of the order. Never has there been auch auniversal and auch a loud cry Ironi the order to the officers for direction how to conduct ths local fight. Never has there been as little concert of action among the ollicers of the diflerent elates and sections. This, if allowed to continue must be fatal; eoncert of action is imperative, and success eonuot be achieved without it. The political contest threatens the destruction of the order. The lack of cohesive and uniform action by the order threatens the peril and slaughter of its friends. The emergency is great, and the necessity for full and free council by executive otiicera is greater than at any time in the history of the movement. The nation is to laree and the expense attending national councils of this charaeter is too great to be borne with convenience, it has, therefore, been decided by the rational Präsident and national executive board that the presidents and executive committees of the states Laving like difficulties to meet, be called together in council. This conclusiou has been reached after a very careful study of the situation, and wa are very forcibly impressed with the necenity of your attendance at this meeting, which, after a full consultation, we have decided to cill to meet at Birmingham, Ale, on Tuesday, the 3d day of May, 1S '2. The presidents and niemhersof the executive committees of the following state alliances have been instructed to attend: Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia. Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Oklahoma and Tennessee. The importance of this meeting and of having every one of these states fully represented is without parallel, and your state will be asked to reimburse you for the traveling expenses incurred, and should it fail to do so, we will call upon the brotherhood to contribute for that purpose, which will be readily done whtn the benefit can be shown. Let no ordinary causa prevent your coming, dui snouia you find it utterly impossible for you to come. Lave your company select a proxy to represent you. It is understood that the meeting will be secret with none present but those invited or their aocredited proxies; that it ii called by C. W. Macune, as chairman of the national executive board, acting under tba advice and approval of the president and executive board, and that no one is to be apprised of the meeting before it convenes. You are requested to at once notify Brother Mht-une, 241 N. Capitol-st., if you will be present or who will be your proxy. Let us inciude an appeal to you by all you love in this causa to be prtsent.

But when she was two years old, seres broke out behind her cars and spread rapidly over her head and forehead down to her eyes, and into her neck. We consulted one of the test physician j In Brook lyn, but nothing did her any good. The doctors said it was caused by a scrofula humor la the blood. Her head became Ono Complete Soro offensive to the smell and dreadful to look at. Her general health waned and she would lay In a large chair all day without any life or energy. The sores caused grcnt itching; and burning, so that at time? we had to restrain ber hands to prevent scratching. For 3 year Sho Suffered Foarfully with this terrible humor. Tiehig urged to try Hood's Sarsaparilla we did so. We soon noticed that she had moro lifo and appetite. Tha medicine seemed to drive out moro ot the humor for a short time, but it soon began to Subside, the itching and bursting ceased, and in a few month her head became entirely clear of the sore, fcha Is now perfectly well, has no evidence of the humor, and her skin Is clear and healthy.

A Fatal Explosion in the City of Paris Which Shows the Bent of Ravachol's Friends. OTHER NARROW ESCAPES. M. Very's Restaurant th Scene of Wreck and Ruin. Death Rate In th Brazilian Capital Very Great, The Cause an Epidemic of Fevers Many Drop Dead in the Streets from a Peculiarly Fatal Disease Queen Victoria Leaves France to Visit Her Daughter, tho Empress Frederick A Probable Attack on Porto Novo by the Dahomeyar.s. Paris, April 25. The restaurant of M. Very, who on March 30 delivered Kavachol, the anarchist, into the bands of the police, was utterly wrecked at 9:40 tonight by a bomb exploaion. Very baa frequently been threatened with Buch a disaster. The force of the explosion was terrific and widely felt, and an enormous crowd quickly gathered about the shattered building. The police on entering found M. Very on the floor of the restaurant in the midst of heaps of debris, groaning with fright and pain. One of his legs had been broken and he was sent to a hospital, where it has been found necessary to amputate his leg. A granddaughter of M, Very was also injured, and two ladies living in rooms located over the restaurant were badly shaken and bruised. Very's wife was not injured, but she has lost her senses owing to the severity of the shock she suffered and is raving like a mad man. At thia hour (10:30 p. m.) firemen are clearing away the ruins. Fortunately the damage done is almost entirely confined to the building in which M. Very's restaurant is located. A detachment of troops is keeping clear the roadway before the ruined cafe. It is the general opinion that the explosion was perpetrated mainly to terrorize the jurymen who will be on duty at Iiavachol's trial. The police have a theory that the bomb was thrown into the basement of the buildintr through a grating. A policeman who was on duty just outside the restaurant when the explosion occurred wa thrown to the pavement by the shock. He states that he saw nothing suspicious. M. Loze. the prefect of police; M. Goron, chief of the municipal police, end M. Kaynaid, secretary of the ministry of the interior, arrived on the scene eoon after the explosion. A quantity of goods lying exposed in front of an adjoining shop were destroyed. Three persona have been arrested on suspicion of being implicated in tne murderous affair. One of them shouted "Vive l'Anarchie'' on being taken into custody. The news of the explosion quickly spread, creating consternation, eepeciallyion the boulevards where exaggerated reports of the alfair, were current. Detachments of police formed a a cordon in the Boulevard Magnenta, of which at the corner of Hue Lancrey, Verv'a reHtaurant is located. The cafe is an utter wreck and not a vestige of a window is visble in the entire structure. The pavement in the vicinity of the place where the explosion occurred is completely strewn with shattered pieces of charred wood and other portions of the ruined building, and with the debris of furniture which was hurled from the cafe by the awful fury of the explosion. The destruction is complete and the place presents a most appalling appearance. M. Very died at the hospital soon after the amputation of his leg. . HUNDREDS OYINQ. The Remarkable Mortality In tha Draslllan Metropolis. Rio de Janeiro, March 26. Tha ques tions which apparently give the government most concern at present are those of public health and the increased cost of living. The mortality caused by yellow fever, the growth of which had been checked by heavy rains, is again increasing, and, as is usually the case when yellow fever prevails here, there are at the same time many deaths from other fevers. On the löth there were in this city, according to official statistics, 145 deaths, the largest number that have been reported for one dav this vear. Of these fifty-six were caused' by yellow fever, twenty-six by other fever and ten by what is called acesso pernicioso (perni cious streue), a violent disease, the action of which Jis exceedingly rapid, sometimes causing those attacked by it to drop dead iu the streets. On the IGth sixty-eight deaths from yellow fever were ollkia ly reported, but the number of deaths from all causes was not as great on that day as it was on the 18th in st. It is generally asserted that there are many more deaths than those officially reported, and it has even been said that the average number from yellow fever alone was loO a day, but this is re garded as an exaegeration. THE QUEEN'S VISIT. Sha Starts for Dnrinatadt to Meet Her DauihUr, tlia Kmprese. Hyers, France, April 23. Queen Vic toria's visit to Costebelle has been brought to a close.

PLEASED WITH THE TICKET.
EXPRESSIONS OF SATISFACTION ARE HEARD IN EVERY QUARTER. The Nominees, Demoernta Say. Could N ol Be Wetter, and Republicans Think So Well of tha Ticket That They IIae Las Faith Than fcr .In Parson Chaae'e Availability as a Candidate. Never before in tha history of political organizations in thU state has any tieket been placed in the Held that received a more hearty indorsement among the adherents of the party that created it than that which the democratic state convention placed before the people on Thursday. The wor!v of the convention was the principal topic of conversation about the hotels and other public places last night, and it met with the unqualified approval of the democracy everywhere. Of course there were some who bad worked for . candidates other than those who captured the honors, but without a single exception they cheerfully abided bv the decision of the majority and expressed themselves as being ready and willing to put forth their best efforts for the success of the ticket. The individual who discovers a split in the democracy of Marion county will certainly have to be possessed of a very large magnifying glass. This general feeling of peace and harmony is largely attributable to the fact that tho proceedings of the convention were conducted in a epirit of openess and fairness throughout, their being an utter abserce of the cut and dried business which is frequently observable in similar gatherings. There was also a marked tendency to discourage anything in the nature of combines and "elates." The judicial nominations were especially commended by prominent local attorneys, who gave it as their opinion that some of the very beBt legnl talent in the state of Indiana was represented on that portion of the ticket. "I am more than pleased with the ticket," paid Judge Iiarppr of the superior court. "It is a strong ticket, because it is made up of thoroughly representative democrats and of men of sterling good citizenship. It could not be improved, to my notion, in a single instance." "I am perfectly satisfied." said Henry Spann. "I do not see that it could be bettered. It is invulnerable." Judge Napoleon B. Tavlor of the supe rior court expressed himself as "well pleased with the ticket." "The ticket is thoroughly democratic in the broadest Fcnse, and thoroughly good," remarked Judge Millard F. Cox of tho criiniunl cour:. "It ie a eplendid ticket," said Carl Habich; "it is a winning ticket, and there is not one weak spot in it from top to bottom." "It is one of the stroragest tickets ever nominated by the democracy of the state," said John V. Kern. "They are all men of stroug character," remarked Judge Fdgar A. Brown, "and the democracy of Indiana are to be congratulated at having so good a ticket in the field." Among republicans, too, were often heard very commendatory remarks about the ticket and thfl personnel of the convention. The gentlemen quoted above expressed the general appreciation of democrats and if a columu was given of what hundreds of others said the comment woud not vary. The nomination of Matthews has made the republicans very serious in the shadow of Chase. Two or three were taking about him yesterday with such vigorous language that a preacher who overheard them in passing by was shocked. The parson governor is being considered a burden and those who do not want Porter are looking around for some other person who has vanity enough to think he can carry the state. If it is possible with the assistance of the administration to unload Ciiase, it will "be done, and that too with euch grace not flattering to his dignity. A republican said yesterday that Torter was not wanted because he was not liberal with money. "It is the money," he remarked "that the boys are after." We will gie the gubernatorial nomination to any wealthy man who will untie his purse strings and let the dollars roll out for campaign purposes. In any event Chase's chauces for nomination are growing 6hady." TWO MATERIAL OMISSIONS. A Sentence of On Resolution and All at Anotlir Overlooked. In the resolutions of the democratic state convention of Thursday, as they were published, two material omissions were unintentionally made. One of these was a sentence in the resolution indorsing the new tax law, referring to the efforts of corporations to defeat it. That resolution entire should have been: We heartily indorse the new tax law as a wise and beneficent act, hy which the increased revenues necessary for the support of the state government are raised entirely from the corporations of the state, that had heretofore unjustly escaped their fair proportion of taxation. We commend the legislature for refusing to adopt Governor Hovey's recommendation to increase the state levy from 12 cents to 2.3 cents on the $100. and for meeting the necessary expenses of the state's benevolent institutions by a levy of 6 centt on the $100. We denounce the infamous conspiracy ot the republican county oonimissioners, township trustees and other officials of Indiana, who, for the purpose of creating unfair prejudice against the new tax law, have wantonly and needlessly increased the local taxes in the forty-six counties controlled by them more than $ 1, 2,30,000 -a um greater than the total increase of state taxes in the entire state. We call on the tax-payers of those eounties to rebuke at the polls these local officials who have put this needless and oppressive burden upon them. As an evidence that this law was enacted in the interest of the people we call attention to the desperate and united efforts now being made in the courts for its overthrow by the great corporations of the country. Theother resolution, and one which, like all the others, was unanimously adopted, was the following: We most heartily eonour in the action recently taken by the Grand Army of the Hepublic requesting the legislature to provide a home for crippled and indigent Union saldiere, where, with their wives, they may in comfort spend their few remaining days. Th sentence in tho tax law resolution and the soldiers' home resolution were 1 "TUriTTTTT A ri TT TT TT? A HOT II PIE1E1S JTASTELESS-EFFECTUAL !

considered Dy the committee a short time before the convention began its proceeding. They were submitted on separate slips of paper and did not appear in the original draft of the platform, which the reporters copied, overlooking the separate lists. Jadge Lots Indorsed. In referring to the selection of Judge O. J. Lötz of Muncie as one of the appellate judge nominees on the democratic state ticket the Times and News, republican, of that city contained the following editorials yesterday: The Times Judge Orlando J. Lötz. the nominee for appellate jndgo on the democratic state ticket, is a creditable nomination for the party. The judge is a citizen of Muncie and as an official has been capable. The Evenwg News Once in a great while the democrats do the proper thing, and the latest evidence of this fact occurred at their state convention when thev nominated the Hon. O. J. Lötz of this city as a candidate for appellate judge. While we feel there is no hope for democratic success in Indiana this fall if they should accidentally get in Judge Lötz will grace the bench with honor to his party and himself. THE TICKET IN JACKSON. Grant Satisfaction Kzprossed and Success Predicted. Seymour, April 22. Special. The democratic state ticket placed in nomination at Indianapolis yesterday gives unbounded satisfaction to the party in this county and is looked upon as a Bure winner. The indorsement of G rover Cleveland is an event that is hailed with pleasure by the party generally. If a vote were taken today for president Mr. Cleveland would be the almost unanimous choice. He is held in high esteem eepeciallv with the German population of the countv, 'who vrould give him a larger vote than any person now before the people. The democracy of this county is in good ehape for the wole ticket, from president down to county offices, as will be evidenced at the election in November. Mortimer Nye's Reesptlon. Lapokte, Ind., April 22. Special. The Hon. Mortimer Nye of this city, who was nominated for lieutenant-governor at the democratic state convention yesterday, was tendered a grand reception on his ar rival here'tonight. A large procession of citizens, irrespective ot party, headed by a band of music, escorted him to the citv hall, where a great throng had gathered to extend congratulations. There was an interchange of friendly greetings, followed by a number of speeches and mmde. Tha Ttckot and Winner. TiPToy, April 22. Special. The demo cratic state ticket nominated yesterday gives entire patißfaction to the party in this city. More especiay is it gratifying that the old wheel-horse, Capt. Myers, who is known to nine-tenths of the people or this county, is among the nominees. Several republicans have already signified their intention of supporting Capt. Mvers. The leading men here think the ticket a winner. CLEVELAND WILL BS NOMINATED. That la What Everybody In Washington SjsBrREAU of Tna Sentinel, f Tna Sentinel, ) kk-ave., N. V V ON. D.

But this last is considered as a very remote possi bility, as it has now come to be the almost unanimous expression among democratic leaders here that Cleveland will certainly be nominated. THE MESSAGE FROM INDIANA. Even Antt-Clevalnnd Men Admit That tha Tidal Wave la Coming. Wash. Special St. Louis P.ej ubllcj The action of the Indiana democratic state convention today has given a re newed impetus to the Cleveland boom, hen a state with such a conspicuous "favorite son as Indiana has indorses Cleveland, it is argued that it means that the people want Cleveland nominated and will have him, whether the politicians will or not. Lven the anti Cleveland democrats in congress now admit that there is a Cleveland tidal wave, and that it will be useless to resist it. Senator Hill, accordine to reports, still thinks that the true solution of the situation is to follow the advice of the seventy-two delegates chosen by the midwinter convention in New York. Hill is very much alone in this opinion, however; on the contrary the democratic politicians gener ally are inclined to think that tne only graceful thing ior the New York delega tion to do is to respect the wi.-hes of the democrats of the country and fall into line. Col. William Ii. Morrison of Illinois was eeen by the Republic correspondent tonight and asked what he thought of the action in Indiana. He said: "The in structions, or declaration, for Cleveland bv tho Indiana democratic convention todav indicates the democratic sentiment and preference in Illinois and all the Northwest. I suggested some months aco, in view of possible conditions which mifcht exist at the time of the national convention, that Illinois should not instruct, but 6end a delegation free to act for the beat interests of the partv. But instructions have been secured lor senator rainier in a numoer 01 coun ties, while other counties have instructed for Mr. Cleveland. Still there is no mistaking the sentiment of the democratic maeees beinz for Cleveland, and if any body gets instructions he oucht to have them, and I am in favor of his having them. The Illinois state convention will declare for Cleveland ii it gives true ex pression to the preference of the state democracy.
