Doubtful Praise.

Mr. Faxon waa the oldest patron of the “select boardlnjg-house” In which he lived, and his landlady sometimes referred people to him for a recommendation of her table. His wish was to praise the food highly, as he eould conscientiously do, but one day he overstepped his mark. - “I’m dyspeptic, sbr,” said a man who had gone to Mr. Faxon to make Inquiries about the boarding-house, “and my food has to be simple and well cooked. No high seasoning, no Indigestible compounds." Mr. Faxon looked at him with a bland and reassuring smile. “My dear sir," he said, In his most Impressive manner, “you need have no fears. All I have eaten in the ten years I have been under Mrs. Brown’s root would not Interfere with the digestion of the most delicate baby, air, tn the land!"

Rheumatism Cured at Last.

Lake Sarah, Minn., May 12th.—Thousands will rend with pleasure that a cure for Rheumatism has at last been found. A Mrs. HUdebrandt of this place, after trying very many medicines, has recently found a successful remedy for this painful disease. This woman suffered so with the Rheumatism In her arms that sleep or rest became impossible. She heard of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, but having little faith In anything, was very reluctant to spend any more money for medicine. However, she decided to try one box, and this helped her so much that she continued to use the Pills. Now she says: "I am real well and I don’t know how I can express my thanks to Dodd’s Kidney Pills for what they have done for me.”

TRUST IN LAW’S GRIP.

MEAT BARONS CHARGED WITH VIOLATING SHERMAN ACT. .Government Attorneys Allege the Combine Effected a Pact to Fix Prices—- “ Big Six” Corporations of Chicago and Klsewhcrc Defendants. Six violations of the Sherman anti-trust law are alleged against Chicago packers in a plea for a temporary injunction filed Saturday in the United States Circuit Court at Chicago by United States District Attorney Sol H. Bethea. The bill asks that the packing companies and their officers be restrained from further practice of the violation of law and urges that they he compelled to bring their books into court that full and comprehensive investigation of their business may be made. In addition to tiling the bill of specifications against the packers District Attorney Bethea has announced that he will make a motion for a temporary injunction against the various corporations" in the trust. The. allegations are much the same that have been made unofficially from time to time. Truth ot three has been admitted by the packers, who assert they have been justified by United States and State courts.

The most important fact set up by the government is that the packing firms named as defendants in the bill have from time to time sent representatives to meetings at which prices have been fixed. This charge is made in the eighth section of the bill. The accusation is that the meeting's have been attended by representatives of all the companies and have been held at various intervals. In addition to fixing and regulating prices the men who attended the meeting are alleged to have fixed penalties for violations of their agreement and to have agreed to the “blacklisting” of retail dealers who were posted as delinquents. The gist of the six points made in the government's complaint follows: That the packing firms, through their representatives, held meetings at which meat prices have been fixed.

HOW BEEF PRICES HAVE ADVANCED.

The figures with a line through them are the normal city prices of the different cuts of meat. The other figures show present prices of the same cuts. On the cheai»er outs it is larger than on the more expensive ones. The price of leg cuts has increased 50 per cent; that of sirloin, 25 per cent; of flank, 33 per cent.

That they have instructed their agents in various stock markets to refrain from bidding against each other, thus reducing buying rates. That they have instructed their agents to bid up prices iu order to induce stock raisers to make large shipments and hare then lowered the prices on delivery, obtaining cattle at unreasonable prices. That they have entered into an agreement to eharge uniform prices for the delivery of goods, thus increasing “cartage" prices and putting up the prices of meat.

That they have entered into agreements with railroad companies by which they received rebates and special privileges in violation of the interstate commerce laws.

That they have entered into a conspiracy with railroads and their represeuta tives to obtain a monopoly of the cattle markets.

The last two charges affect the railroads. but they are not made defendants in the bill, as the proof of the charges must depend upon evidence that their officers can give. Each and every one of the charges is alleged to be a violation of the Sherman anti-trust law of July 2, 1890. It is said in the bill that the packers will continue their business operations as heretofore until restrained from doing so by an injunction. The bill names as defendants the packing firms that form what is known as the “big six.” Iu addition to naming the companies the bill designates twenty-four of their officers and directors. The corporations named in the bill as defendants are: Swift A Co., of Illinois. The Cuduby Fucking Company, of Illinois. The Hammond Facking Company, of Illinois. Armour & Co., of Illinois. The Armour Facking Company, of New Jersey. The G. 11. Hammond Company, of Michigan. Schwarzschild & Sulzberger Company, of New Y'ork. Nelson Morris, Edward Morris and Ira N. Morris, copartners as Nelson Morris & Co., of Illinois, In the preface of the bill it is stated that all these firms and corporations arc engaged in the buying, selling and shipments of beef nnd that they control ISO per cent of the trade, having bought nnd told in tho last year 4,000,000 cattle. The bill was fiualty prepared in Washington by Attorney General I’hilander <’. Knox nnd Special Assistant Attorney General W. A. Day.

SPAIN’S BOY KING.

Coronation of Alfonso to Be t Most Brilliant Affair. The coronation of Alfonso, the boy king of Spain, but a few days before that of King Edward of England, wil’ mark the beginning of an epoch for which the Spanish people are waiting with feverish anxiety. For years, Spain has beep without more than a nominal occupant o: the throne. The government has boon in the hands of others,, reigning for Alfonso, and the Spanish people are anxiotu to know ngain how it will seem to be ruled by a real king. The coronation ceremony will be wit-

Our representative will be Dr. J. L. M. Curry of Virginia, who was tlie United States minister to Spain at the time of the young King’s birth, and who was an official witness of his advent into the world. Alfonso comes to the throne of Spain

in exceedingly troublous times. There is dissatisfaction among his people. The Orieanists are active and there is also a considerable faction whose object is the overthrow of the throne and the declaration of a republic. In addition, Gen. Valerinno Weyler, the former captain general of Cuba, into whose bauds has been given much power, has, by his Boulangist methods, alienated a considerable class of citizens who are loyal to the reigning family but not in accord with its officers. The training of the King has been that of a soldier rather than a ruler. His early delicate health has been the reason for as much outdoor life as possible and as a result his young manhood finds him physically quite the equal of other boys of his age. He is not entirely strange to the arts of statescruft. His tutors, all of whom have been able men, have trained him as much as possible in the ways of rulers. The young King's favorite diversion is horseback ridiug, and be may be seen any day riding about the city of Madrid, accompanied by an aide-de-camp.

One day a drill sergeant in the army had a number of recruits to drill, and wanted the married men separated from the single ones, so he formed them in a line and gave the word of 'ommand: “Single men, advance; and married men, fall back In the rear.” All took their positions except one, an Irishman, who stood still. The sergeant asked the reason why he had not moved, but no answer came from Pat. “Come, my man, are you married?” “No,” replied Pat. “Then you are single?” "No.” “Then what are you?” “I am courting Sally.” The sergeant collapsed.—London Spare Momenta.
