SHERIFF WILKINS FREED.

Tears of Slavery and How He Escaped - Health Io Improving—Had Gained Fifteen Founds in WeichtTalks About His Deliverer Daily. Urbana, Ohio, Sept. 9, 1895.— (Special.) •-This town is in quite a boil of excitement Since the facts about the improved physical condition of many of our .leading citizens became known. Anderson & Cralner, the big wholesale and retail druggists, were called, on and frankly admitted that they were the first to start the good work, as Mr. Anderson termed it. “Yes, we introduced No-To-Bac into this town about three years ago. The demand at the start was very light, the folks had no faith in it, but we sold to a few people, and to our great astonishment every one reported a cure. Since that time we have sold hundreds of boxes, and every one uu- • der a guarantee to cure or refund the money, and strange as it may seem, we have never had a call to refund money. This is indeed a great record of merit, and it is because of this merit that the big sale has resulted. As every cure brings in at least twenty-five customers, we know that No-To-Bac can be relief upon in every respect, and No-To-Bac not only relieves the nervous irritation and makes the use of tobacco entirely unnecessary, but at the same time builds up and fortifies the general physical condition. I just saw two of our prominent merchant! pass down the opposite side of the street; they were cured by No-To-Bac a year ago, and they have not used tobacco since and have been greatly improved in health. We have a great many customers, men who are well advanced in years, who have been cured of the tobacco habit by the use of No-To-Bac, and who continue taking it right along for its tonic effects. As a natural invigorator and stimulant we believe there is no preparation in America to equal it.” “You know R. P. Wilkins* our sheriff, don’t you?” “Yes, of course, I do.”~ ———— “Well, you want to interview him.” Mr. Wilkins was called upon, and said: “Yes, November 4th, last, I bought my first box of No-To-Bac from Anderson & Cramer. I had little faith, and to my great surprise, after using part of the third box, I was completely cured and did not have the least desire for tobacco. I had been a perfect slave to tobacco for over twenty-fiye years; I smoked from twelve to fifteen cigars a day; to-day I feel better, I sleep better, think better, and I have gained fifteen pounds in weight, and there is not a day passes that I do not recommend No-To-Bac to many of the tobacco users who I know are destroying their lives and vitality by the use of the weed.” Further investigation revealed the fact that there are 500 people living in this town and the surrounding country who have been cured by No-To-Bac. If the cures go on at this rate it will not be very !<jng before the tobacco industry is going to be seriously affected. The sale of No-To-Bac lias been phenomenal. The public should be warned, however, against the purchase of any of the many imitations oh the market, as the success of No-To-Bac has brought forth a host of counterfeiters and imitators. The genuine No-To-Rae is sold under a guarantee to cure by all druggists, and every tablet has the word No-To-Bac plainly stamped thereon, and in the purchase of the genuine article you run no physical or financial risk. _j

Where Tortoise Shell Comes From.

The finest tortoise shell comes from the Indian archipelago, and is shipped from Singapore, and much of it is obtained on the Florida coast. There are three rows of plates on the back, called “blades” by the fishermen. In the central row are five plates, and in each of the others four plates, the latter containing the bes* material. Besides these there are twenty-five small plates round the edges of the shell, known as “feet” or “noses.” The biggest turtle does not furnish more than sixteen pounds of tortoise shell. Formerly the under shell was thrown away, being considered worthless, but atj present it Is very highly valued for its delicacy of coloring. Nowadays, a very beautiful Imitation of tortoise shell is made of cows’ horns. Henry Clay knew personally and remenfoered the names of thousands of his constituents. It was his strong point during a canvass.

OUR CATTLE THE BEST

MARKET FOR UNITED STATES PRODUCTS IN ENGLAND. Reviewed In Detail in Recent Report* —lmports of Apples from Europe Regulated by the Size of the Crop In This Country. American Consular Reports. The markets for United, States products in Great Britain are reviewed in detail in recent consular reports. Cattle from this country are reported from Liverpool as superior to the native cattle, the latter including many immature and young animals slaughtered for food and also a greater proportion of old animals. Consul Neal at Liverpool reports, however, that sheep from the United States and other countries do not compare favorably with the British, lacking taste and tenderness, and it is suggested by experienced men that this might be -greatly improved by shipping the sheep younger, say one to two years old. It is suggested bythe trade in the Liverpool district that American tobacco be packed thoroughly dry when intended for consumption there and altogether free from either heated or bulk-heated leaves. Large quantities of apples are received from various countries on the continent of "Europe, but the importations appear to be regulated by the size of the apple crop in the United States. American apples command the highest prices. Fortyfive per cent, of the wheat and 90 per cent, of the flour in the Liverpool consular district come from the United States. American glucose and starch are not as valuable in the Liverpool district as the product from Germany and Holland, though in good demand through low prices, and in some portions of the district the glucose importation is exclusively from the United States. Consumers depend to a large extent on the importations of bacons and hams principally from the United States and Canada. The strongest objection made by the Liverpool trade to hog meats packed in the United-States is that of insufficient cuiing. The Provision Trade Association suggests absolute prohibition of export of filled cheese from the United States and greater care in the manufacture of the best, so as to equal the Canadian product. The consumption of American canned meats is falling off and that of Australia increasing, due largely to relatively high prices of American goods. Consul Neal recommends that the United States make more of the finest “grades for export to compete with other supply sources. In the Hull district the American cigarettes are regarded as the best in the market. . America furnishes the entire foreign cattle supply for the Glasgow district, and the condition in which the animals land is regarded as highly satisfactory, the only complaint being that they are “unduly fat,” necessitating waste in the shops. American horses are accused of being moreliable to catch fatal colds soon after landing, on account of the damp climate, and with being unable to stand the wear and tear sustained by Welsh or Irish horses. Consul Morse at Glasgow reports that over 83 per cent, of the whole wheat supply there is imported from this country. The United States also leads in the importation of Indian corn, flour, starch and hams. Glasgow tobacco dealers charge deterioration of the American product on account of the producers aiming more at quantity than quality, and not giving as careful attention as formerly to picking and assorting. The demand for American corn is very light at Belfast, the Black Sea product being preferred. In canned meats for that consular district the United States has no competitor. The charge is made that American ham is too heavy and the meat too rich. The reputation of American lard is also at a discount, it being asserted that it is tampered with on both sides of the Atlantic. Merchants at Belfast bitterly complain of the alleged deception of American shippers of apples, and the Canadian apples are accordingly growing in popularity.

LABOR’S BIG JUBILEE.

Great Demonstrations in Varlons Cities of the United States. Organized labor throughout the United States observed its holiday with usual festivous demonstration. In Chicago the toilers took a day off and had a good time. Although there was a split in the ranks of organized labor and two rival parades were formed, there was no hint of trouble and everybody was good-natured. Each body turned out about 15,000 men, the marchers were splendidly arrayed, and both parades memorable sights. When the parade the reviewing stand they were much ns they have always been. The same horseshoers made the same horseshoes, the painters with the white caps and the bakers with the tools of their trade. They mnrehed ns well and ns steadily ns ever and exchanged' greetings with friends on the curbstones as they always do. The rival parades were of about equal length and much similnr in appearance. Congressman MeGann, Mayor l’ingree of Detroit, and others were at Ogden’s Grove to address the Building Trades’ Council, and they remained in the grove until long after the electric lights were turned on. The Labor Congress did not have a picnic, but instead a grand demonstration was given at the Auditorium in the evening. Keii Hardic and John Swinton were the speakers of the occasion, and an immense crowd was in the big theater to hear the famous socialist and author. There was no general parade in New York City. The fnct is considered significant of the general condition this year of New York working people; with but a few exceptions there are no questions to be agitated and no victories to be celebrated. The various labor organizations decided some time ago that a parade was not necessary and that the various unions should spend the day as the individual members saw fit. As a result there was a sudden exodns from the city in every direction. Picnic parties great and small took advantage of the various pleasure grounds and parks about the city. An unusual number of ball games, races, tournaments, and other forms of sports were arranged for the day. The holiday was generally observed throughout the city. Labor day was celebrated at Terre Haute with a parade in the morning and exercises and amusements at the fair ground in the afternoon. There were 10,000 at the grounds, many of whom listened to the speeches of Senator Voorhees and Colonel McLtan, ex-deputy com-

missioner of pensions. {Senator Voorhees ■aid: “I consulted with Debs 1 counsel when the case was before the Supreme Court and I know that Debs is suffering a penalty that the Constitution does not WUrraut. A lawful conviction muss “Be preceded by an indictment and trial by a jury. A ranker, grosser and bitterer piece of injustice never blotted the page of our Federal judiciary.” The Senator advised his hearers that they must not violate the laws, but should elect men to make laws that would be acceptable to them. Beautiful weather contributed to the success of the Labor day celebration in St. 'Louis. All the banks, exchanges, courts, and eity offices were closed and many retail stores gave their clerks a holiday. The labor organizations united in a parade of the principal streets at nnnn and nftcrwnrd assembled at Concordia Park, where the remainder of the day was spent in amusements Of various descriptions, Cleveland, Ohio, saw the biggest Labor day demonstration that the city has ever known. Business houses were generally closed and the city was .in holiday dress. A parade in whieh every labor union in the city took part marched through the principal streets. In Buffalo, N. Y., Labor day was celebrated by a parade of the trades unions, followed by a picnic at Germania Park. Two thousand union men paraded in Indianapolis and in the afternoon severalthousand people gathered at the State fair grounds and were addressed by President John Mcßride of the American Federation of Labor.

HELPS THE SEABOARD.

Decision by the Supreme Court of Georgia Favors This Famous Line. , In the suit of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad against the Western and Atlantic and the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis railroads, a decision was handed down in the Supreme Court of Georgia at Atlanta which is decidedly in favor of The Seaboard Air Line, and gives this noted litigation a new turn. This litigation was caused by the boycott which the Southern Railway and Steamship Association declared against the Seaboard Air Line, causing all the associated roads to refuse to allow the Seaboard prorating privileges on through shipments. There had been a contract made between the Seaboard and the Western and Atlantic and Nashville, Chattanooga and !j?t. Louis railroads which guaranteed the Seaboard as advantageous rates as they should give to other connecting lines. The Seaboard therefore brought suit r gainst those roads to enjoin them from entering the boycott ordered by the Southern Rahway and Sfeamship Association. The injunction was temporal ily granted, but subsequently Judge Lumpkin ruled that the Western and Atlantic and the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis had a perfect right to enter the boycott in so far as through business was concerned, but on local business originating on the Western and Atlantic or destined to points on the road the defendants could not refuse to grant all concessions to the Seaboard allowed the other connecting lines. The case was appealed by The Seaboard Air Line to the Supreme Court, and the latter filed itsopinion last Saturday. The decision in brief is as follows: “Where, upon a valuable consideration, a railway company contracted vftth a railroad company to ‘interchange business, both through and local,’ with the latter and its connecting lines for a specified term of years ‘upon terms as favor, able and advantageous to said road nnd its connecting lines as those given to any other railroad entering’ a designated city, the railway company was bound by the terms of this contract, not only as to freight shipped from or to points upon its own line, but also as to freights destined to or coming from points beyond the same; and, therefore, could not, so long as it pursued a different and more favorable course as to other railroads entering the city iui question, lawfully do anything to deprive the railroad company with which it had contracted, and its connections, of the benefits of ‘through rates and through proportions of rates and bills of lading founded thereupon’ as to freights of the latter class. “Under this contract, therefore, it was not, in view of the facts as found by the trial judge, lawful for the railway company, during the period therein stipulated, to voluntarily enter into contracts or maintain business relations with transportation companies beyond its own line, with the intention or purpose of depriving the other party to the contract (the railroad company) of the benefits above indicated; nor, with such intention or purpose, to refuse to receive from such transportation companies shipments of freight routed over the railroad company’s line upon bills of lading giving to it the benefit of ‘through rates and through proportion of rates’ upon such shipments.”

MANY INJURED IN A WRECK.

Engine Dashes Into a Crowded Train on the Seaheach Road. An appalling railroad accident occurred near Woodlawn station, New York, on the Seaheach Railroad, in yvhich fifty people were injured.' While train No. 3. drawing seventeen cars, which' were crowded almost to suffocation with excursionists, was standing at the Woodlawn station a wildcat engine came thundering along the tracks, telescoping it. The car was full of passengers, most of whom came from New York. Many people saw the engine tearing along and jumped from the train and thus saved their lives. Most of the injured were taken to the hospitals and several will die. A colored porter yelled to the passengers to jump. The runaway engine dashed into the rear car, smashing it into kindling .wood and burying men, women and children beneath it. There was a mad rush of humanity from the train. Scarcely half a dozen people kept their heads or were able to render assistance to the injured. 1 Patrolman Kelly, who was on duty at the station, turned in several ambulance calls and five ambulances from the surrounding hospitals promptly responded. In the meantime the woodwork of the wrecked carriage caught fire and was sqon in a blaze. Four cars were destroyed before the train bauds were able to uncouple them and four cars were telescoi>ed by the collision. The police, who have Engineer Frank Jason and Fireman Arthur Ross of the runaway engine under iiyrest, say that engine No. 6, the wildcat, while shunting on the track, was in danger, while going backwards, 'Of colliding with another eu gine. The engineer, thinking it impossible to avoid this collision, reversed tht lever and jumped from the engine, followed by his fireman. The engine, how ever, jumped forward almost Immediately and (darted down the tracks at a terrific rata of speed, resulting in the disaster.

THE FIRST STEP OF EMPIRE.

Killing Missionaries a Profitable Matter for England. England makes good use of her missionaries who are abused and killed. It would not be surprising to see the recent riot at Ku-chong result in the acquisition of Chinese territory by Great Britain. She iufly observe that the only way in which her missionaries can be protected is by the extension of one of the many forms of government by which the great colonizer seizes and controls so much of the earth’s surface. Anthony Hope in one of his stories illustrates this In a few words. A party was assembled in a London drawing room, the most of whom were interested in a company which was land grabbing in Africa. “And how’s the great scheme?” asked some one., “We hope to get the money raised,” said the principal promoter. “Everything’s going on very well,” 6aid a funny man of the company. “They have killed a missionary.” “How dreadful,” said a lady. “Regrettable In itself, but the first step toward empire,” explained the funny man. How true it is. Later in the same book the suggestion is made that If 6ome of the traders would also be killed England would then take control of the whole country. It has been asserted before by some one that English missionaries gofirst into a country and are killed; English traders follow, and English red coats and marines are close behind them. “They liave killed a missionary” and “it’s the first step toward., empire” are expressions that are well to keep in mind while the English are settling with China for the Ku-eheng riots.

The Sultan’s Jewels.

One of the finest collections of crown jewels in the world is possessed by the Sultan of Turkey, their value being estimated at $40,000,000. Every Sultan, from the earliest times, has made a point of collecting jewels, and selling none, and thus, through the course of ages, the collection has become enormous. The jewel rooms of the Turkish Sultan resemble nothing so much as the description of Aladdin's cave in the Arabian Nights.

Hogarth’s Gate.

Hogarth’s gate has been demolished at Calais. The story Is cherished of how Hogarth went over to enjoy a holiday, and, full of British pride, comported himself in a manner not pleasing to the French. While sketching he was arrested. He revenged himself by making a painting of the entrance gate to the town, into which he Introduced some uncomplimentary French figures. It is a strange coincidence that at the time the gate was destroyed the original painting was being presented to the national art gallery by the Duke of Westminster.
