Miraculous Benefit

RECEIVED FROM Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure. trLI P. BABCOCK, of Avoca, N. Y., a veteran of the 3rd N. Y. Artillery and for thirty years of the Babcock & Munsel Carriage Co., of Auburn, says: write to express my gratitude forthemirac lous bene6t received from Dr. Miles Heart Care. I suffered for years, as result of army life, from sciatica vrhica affected my heart In the worst form, my limbs swelled from the ankles up. I bloated until I was unable to button my clothin?; had sharp pains about the heart, mothering spells and shortness of breath. For three months I was unable to lir. down, and all the sleep I got was in an arm chair. I was treated by the best doctors but gradually grew worse. About a year ago I commenced taking Dr. Miles New Heart Cure and it saved my lifo as if by a miracle." Dr. Miles' Remedies are sold by all druggists under a positive guarantee, first bottle benefits or money refunded. Book on diseases of the heart and nerves free. Address, Restore & Health DR.

Calvin Brice, the ex-senator from Ohio, is dead, after a brief illness with pneumonia. Mr. Brice is the owner of the L. E. & V. railway and has other extensive property interests. He was a Cleveland democrat. Senator Kyle says that Japan has offered this government $200,000,000 for the Philhppines and that there is a distinct sentiment in official circles in favor of eventually turning the islands over to Japan or some other power or powers. John Sherman is stronglv opposed to the annexation of the Philippines and is against expansion. In a letter he expresses the hope that the senate will not ratify the treaty, and hopes to see Aguinaldo become the George Washington of the Philippine republic. The immediate cause of the death of ex-Senator Calvin S. Brice was pneumonia. In order to reach home he rode on a locomotive during the late cold snap. The trip was protracted beyond schedule time several hours. He contracted a cold, and declined medical treatment on the plea that his ailment didn't amount to much and that he would soon get over it. But he grew steadily worse and was compelled to take to his bed from which he never arose. The Chicago Times-Herald is booming Mr. Edward C. Mason of that city for the presidency of Yale college. Mr. Mason is known better throughout the west as a historian and as president of the Chicago historical society. He is a graduate of Yale, though, and one of its most enthusiastic supporters. Mr. Mason is also the father of several sons who are graduates of this institution. Senator Turpie never minces words when he has anything to say. He favors the Nicaragua canal, but does not favor letting the Maritime Canal Co. have anything to do with its construction. In the course of a short speech advising the postponement of action on the question until the report of the commission, sent over to investigate, is submitted to congress, Mr. Turpie said the object of the Maritime Canal Co. was

Dr. J

not to cut a canal, but "to cut a

channel of communication at the least possible cost between the treas ury of the United States and the empty coffers of that beggarly cor poration !" When Boss Piatt was asked whether anything else besides the demands of his private business had influenced Secretary Bliss to resign the portfolio of Secretary of the In terior, he could hardly keep his face straight. He didn't answer the ques tion in words ; he was expected to. Bliss was taken into the cabinet to head off demands made by Piatt, and he has been used for the same purpose at various times since. So Piatt isn't grieving over his resigna tion. Indeed, it is altogether prob able that Piatt has done his part to push along the petty annoyances which have resulted in convincing Mr. Bliss that his private business needs his attention. While it is not likely that the resignation of Mr. Bliss was brought about by any open rupture, it was probably the culmi nation of dissatisfaction of a thou sand and one little things, no one of which is important enough to be as signed as a reason for resignation. It has been an open secret in Washing ton that Mr. Bliss didn't like his job. Representative Bailey of Texas, has made a statement concerning his attitude towards Gen. Wheeler and three other members of the house who hold commissions in the volun teer army. He quotes section 6 of article 1 of the constitution: "That no person holding any office under the United States shall be a member of either house during his continuance in office," and cites two cases in which the house decided members to have forfeited seats, one by ac cepting a major's commission in the District of Columbia militia, and the other, by becoming a colonel of a volunteer regiment in the Mexican war: Mr. Bailey thus defines his own position; "I am one of those who believe that it is the highest duty of every man to obey the law and to respect the constitution; and I have little patience with the weak suggestion that a member of con gress shall shrink from his sworn duty because public sentiment would allow a brave and distinguished man to hold two high offices, even though it be against the constitution of our country." Another phase of the same question is now being dis cussed in the senate the constitu tional right of senators to serve as government or presidential com missioners. Kxperta on County liookn. Ex-Deputy State Auditor Kuhn of Indianapolis, and ex-County Auditor Johnson of Ft. Wayne are in Goshen as clerical experts going over the books duriDg the terms of ex-Treasurer Ro maine and the report of the experts em ployed by the county who alleged that here was a shortage in Mr. Komaine's acbounts.

The duration of the eclipbe exclusive of the penumbral phase, which U never perceptible will be three hours, forty-nine minutes.

TOE INDIANA STATE GRANGE.

In Annual Session at Indianapolis Important Question Heilig Consideteri. The Indiana State Grange is holding its2Sth annual session in the rooms ccct pied by the stateboard of agriculture, in the state house. The meetiug will continue two or three days. About 50 members were in attendance at the opening session Tuesday morning. The grange is a farmers organization, which sprang up like a mushroom 31 years ago, at the time of its organization in Washington, D. C. For several years it was a powerful factor in commercial affairs, as its membership at that time jumped into the hundreds of thousands, but politics crept into its ranks, and its downfall was as sudden as its rise. However the organization is again on a substantial basis, with a membership of 2,000 or 3,000 in the state, about a third as many members as it hid at its hight. Among the project of the grange are: To have direct dealings by the farmers with the manufacturer and consumer, so as to avoid the "middle man" as they term the commercial traveler; to foster co-operation, maintain laws, emulate each other in labor, systematize work, discontinue the credit and mortgage system, and to promote mental, moral and social advantages, which will stimulate harmony and brotherhood. JJoth men and women are eligible to membership, but they must be identified with the farm at the time of their initiation. Aaron Jones, of South Bend, is mas ter of the state grange, and also of the national organization. After a few mi nor preliminaries, the grange went into secret session. Dr. Horton Presented a Watch. Dr. and Mrs. Aspinall entertained Friday evening in honor of Dr. liorton's 67th birthday as mentioned in Saturday's issue. There were present 80 guests and after refreshments, the Hon. II. G. Thayer on behalf of and with best wishes of thirty-two old resi dents of Plymruth presented to the doctor a handsome gold watch with the following remarks: Doctor Borton: I have Deen reques ted by your friends here assembled, to voice for them and myself the pleasure we all eüjoy on this auspicious and happy occasion, and express to you our hearty coDgratulations that you have arrived in sound health and pleasant surroundings at the 67th mile post in your eventful career. Most of us remember when you came here forty years ago with your lovely young wife and started in your pro fession as a physician, a poor young man, with the world before you. Some remember your first call to the sick chamber, and from that moment your success was assured. Mo6t of us have been recipients of your growing skill in your profession, and have witnessed with pleasure and satisfaction the high position you have attain 1 in the profession, and the high moral standing that has ever accom panied it, for it is a recognized fact that a physician ehoald ever be alive to the dignity of the medical fraternity. When you came to Plymouth, then a village, with your brother, Amos Bor ten' who has long since passed to the other shore, you at once became a member of our society and enjoyed with us our pleasures and shared with us our sorrows, and thus attained with your family a place in our hearts. You have possessed the quality of individuality in a marked degree. Whatever you have said or done has borne the impn of fine personality. Your friends are numbered by the the hundreds, and your life has been associated with hapjj thoughts and kindly deeds. Your career has been contemporaneous with many distinguished men in your profession and in national affairs, and of the most eventful period of the world's history. No age has made euch advances in all things that portend for he betterment of man, as the years in which you have lived. Glance at the advances made in the arts and sciences, and in every department of human knowledge. Man has iterally chained the powers 'of nature, and attached them to his conquering chariot wheels. In no profession has he advance been more marked than that of the science of medicine. You have lived in an era of railroads, telegraphs, phonogiaphs, electric mo ors, X-rays, public schools, colleges and universities, and greater than all, wo man's triumph in literature, scholar ship, government, and an equal opportunity with man in the social and busi ness affairs of life. You have not only ived in an age of progress, but you have been progressive in your profeeson, which is one of the noblest, it being for the alleviaton of human suffering. By your assiduity and skill you have kept abreast with the times, and have restored hundreds of your patrons to health and usefulness; and when skill and medical science would not a?iil to save life, you have tenderly cared for the dying and pointed them to enduring life beyond the dark river. For your careful attention and kindness of heart in times of sorrow and Buffering your friends will always hold you in dear remembrance. On behalf of your friends who form this notable pref ence, I pre sent you with this elegant watch as a memento of this pleasant occasion. Its gold case will be a reminder of the golden memories of tonight, as you

further travel up the hill of life and as the time it keeps rolls on I have no doubt you will receive and cherish it with the same satisfaction your friends feel in peisenting it. This watch will, keep the time as you pursue the busy, duties of your profession. And may we ask what time is? Dryden says it is the surest judge of truth. Dost thou love life" said Ben Franklin ? 'Then waste no time, for time is the stuff that life is made of. Time is too short to do sometthinji and too long to do nothing." This watch will keep for you the time of the coming year and perhaps, oiher years, but ere its close who can tell who of this goodly company will be here to greet you cu your next anniversary, or in fact whether you will be here yourself. B 1 that as it may as you 6ee its welcome face or hear its gentle ticking it is the wish of your friends that you may have pleasant memories of this happy event. God bless you. The doctor very feelingly responded in a few appropriate words. After a delightful social intercourse the guests departed to their various homes, pronouncing it a delightful pleasant evening.
