WOJffif TO WOMAN.

Women are being 1 taught by bitter experience that many cannot successfully handle their pereuliaj ailments known as female diseases. Doctors are willing and anxious to help them, but they are the wrong sex to work iin^eratandingiT. When the woman of to-day ex-

periences such sympIKi| toms as backache, nervousness, lassisensation, palpitation, ‘'all

gone” feeling and blues, she at once takes Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, feeling sure of obtaining immediate relief. < Should her symptoms be new to her, she writes to a woman, Mrs. Pinkham, -Lynn, Mass., who promptly explains her case, and tells her free how to get well. Indeed, so many women are now appealing to Mrs. Pinkham for advice, that a score of lady secretaries are kept constantly at work answering the great volume of correspondence which comes in every day. Each letter is answered carefully and accurately, as Mrs. Pinkham fully realizes that a life may depend upon her reply, and into many and many a home has she shed the rays of happiness.

Comes With a better understanding of the transient nature of the many physical ills which vanish before proper efforts —gentle efforts —pleasant efforts—rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a constipated condition of the system, which the pleasant family laxative. Syrup of Figs, promptly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the-fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness, without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its beneficial effects, to note when you purchase, that you have the genuine article, which is manufactured by the ■Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all reputable druggists. ; — 1 If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, then laxatives or other remedies are not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, thendheshduld'Kavethebest.andwith the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction.

dren soon after found several guttering stxmes. One proved to be a real diamond; the others were crystals. Jay cobs’ wife, notkuowing that any particular value attached to the jewel, exchanged It for calico. Jacobs set out- on the trail of the lucky trader, and, finding him, forced him to return the jewel. The Korannah’s stone was forwarded bo Port Elizabeth, where Sir Fillip Woodhouse, the Governor, purchased it for £SOO. He named it the “Star of South Africa, and it still remains in his family. Jacobs, after a lapse of two years, recelved a horse, wagon and some sheep as payment. The man is now an octogenarian and in hearty health.

Its voters have always been considered almost as holy as those of the Ganges The founder of Christianity and the founder of Mohammedanism were both born in places that are now under the rule of the Turkish sultan, who, until a few years ago, ruled also over the birthplace of Moses, the founder of Judaism. One of the most famous log chutes in the West, at La Grande, Ore., is to be cut up for cordwood, all the timber immediately tributary to it having been cut away. The chute is one and a half miles long from top tq bottom, aud during its period of use more than 3,400,0()0 feet of logs have been coasted through it down the mountain side. The archer fish has a natural blow gun. This animal possesses the curious property of being able to shoot drops of water from its mouth with extraordinary accuracy to considerable distances.

WASHINGTON GHOSTS

SHADES OF GREAT MEN HAUNT THE CAPITOL. • I" A Correspondent Says Among Them Are the Spirit®, of President John ! Quincy Adame, Vice President Henry ‘ Wilson and Black Jack Logan. , Spooks in »High-Life. Washington correspondence:

DO you believe in ghosts? Do you ■wish to • collect a rich and' rare stock o f flesh - creeping spook stories? If so, come to WashinggEg\ ton, hie yourself to sSSI that great white I glia' building on the hill known as the Capitol, give one of the blue-coated guides an extra tip and he - will take you amid 1,1 the mazes of that pTpflrea wonderful —building '|| |[ [Band regale you with H l> ’ enough dark tales to last you a lifetime.

Or, if they do not satisfy you, pick acquaintance with one of the seedy, hungry looking individuals you will find at the foot of the grand’ staircase, who ten to one is a professional guide also, and ask him to point out to you all the haunted houses in the city and tell you th'eir weird histories. And either of these gentlemen will tell you what they believe to be the plain, unvarnished truth. The Capitol police have strange things to tell about the uncanny doings in the vaulted corridors after nightfall. -The ghoste they tell about are not simple, everyday visitors from the land of the unseen, but the shades of distinguished men in the fiatiem’s history. The majestic spiritual ego of John Quincy Adams, once President of the United States; of Vice-President Henry Wilson, a Massachusetts statesman, and of Gen. John A. Logan, famous in field and forum, are said to haunt by night the echoing halls where legislators tread by day. When the redoubtable Andrew Jackson was inaugurated, March 4, 1829, Adams retired for a short while to private life. It was not until Feb. 21, 1848, that he died. He was at that time q representative, and his passing away was tragic. During a session of the House he suddenly slipped from his seat to the floor. Apoplexy, the doctors said. He was borne to a room near by, where not many hours later he died, with but a few murmured words. It was not long after the unhappy event that there was whispering among the officials who took care of the Capitol Building after dark that someone" like unto the dead Adams was seen nightly to pass out of the speaker’s room, in which the ex-President had died, into the House chamber, which is now statuary hall, aud wander about. among the seats. It wquld pause beside the chair occupied by Adams, then gradually fade away into nothingness. After the seats were removed and statues pld cos in the hall the change apparently disconcerted the distinguished' ghost, for, according to the best authorities, those who claimed to have seen the whole proceeding, the shade of the statesman wandered around and around the chamber, and finally passed out without apparently having found his former place of daily occupation. But later a small, bronze tablet was inserted in the floor, through the good offices of somebody who felt sorry for thq ghost," upon the spot where John Quincy Adams’ chair used to stand, and then it is said the ghost walked as before, with every evidence of being once again at pence. This particular shade was seen on Feb. 21 last, aud is not expected again until that date. beloved Vice-President is said to move and have its ethereal being in the VicePresident’s room, the marble room, where the Senators receive their callers, and in the corridors thereabouts. It was while in the first named apartment that Mr. Wilson was also suddenly visited by the angel of death, Nov. 10, 1875, who remained with him until Nov. 22, when he died, after three severe shocks of apoplexy. The apparition supposed to represent this poor man is occasionally declared to manifest itself suddenly, as if evoluted out of the thin air, aiid ns quickly vanish upon the approach of a mortal. The spirit of Black Jack Logan is s.aid to make its appearance at exactly twenty minutes after 12 o'clock midnight. The general was at one time chairman of the Committee on Military; Affairs, gnd out of this committee room he emerges, taking care to close tile door after him, and glides swiftly down the corridor, to disappear without trace or sound. This is perhaps the most substantial of all the Capitol ghosts, for there are numbers of persons rendy to attest~having witnessed lu.s mysterious- passage through the gloomy halls. But it does not take the actual appearance of these shades to make the Capitol, a place of grewsomeness and awe at night. In the stillness, that pervades a dooi; shutting at zone end of the long building may be faintly hearu at the other, and a step in the rotunda will come back from all sides with startling echoing. It is one of the stories that every night thtfre is a sound in the portico of the Senate wing as of some one scrubbing the marble floor aud the noise of water being thrown down oh it is plainly audible. Capitol officials tell of an aged negro who used so be one of the sweeps, and who died a number of years ago, aud who, they say, performs his early morning duties of washing up just a few hours before daybreak each day. This ghostly individual is the unseen terror of all the negro laborers who clean up around the Capitol, and they will not work without plenty of light on the subject. 1 It would give a timid person the fright of his life to walk across statuary hall at midnight and in the dark. In no place in the vast building are thq echoes so strange or so ghostly. There 1 are a number of what called echo 6tones, by stepping upon which and speaking qne is astounded to hear his voice coming up apparently beneath his feet. It is a trick the guides have ofstartling their customers by stepping up liehind some pillar and, just jit the moment when the unwary tourist stands on a certain stone, giving voice to a harsh and sepulchral whisper Thai .Kill xererberateuin ghostly accent close in his ear. Upper Mississippi log owners at Minneapolis, JJjun., canvassed the pine timber cut of the winter, finding it 585,000,000 They voted that only 75 per cent of logs to come down the river shall be sawed, reducing the cut of lumber to about 400,000,000 and directly ftffecfrng 10,000 laboring men.

IOWA POPULISTS.

The State Convention in Dea Moines Wag the Largest in Several Year*. Th,e lowa Populist State convention held in Des Moines was the largest in several' years. All hut seven countied were represented and about 600 delegates were present. In addition to the State leaders, Natipnal Chairman H. E. Taubeneck and Gen. J. >S. Coxey of Ohio were present and made speeches. The temper. of the convention was conciliatory and radical action was avoided; the convention falling in line with the wishes of Gen.’J. B. Weaver. There was a considerable undercurrent of Boies talk among the delegates, and the hope was freely expressed that the Democratic convention at Chicago would split on the silver question ail'd both wings nominate candidates. If this is done the lowa Populist delegation at St. Louis will undoubtedly seek to harp the silver Democratic nominee for President indorsed, especially if Boies should be the man. Gen. Weaver, who acted as temporary chairman, said: “Ts we lose the fight this fall it will be death to our cause this side of revolution. If the gold men win they will refund $500,000,000 of treasury notes into inter-est-hearing bonds. That is the issue. We are in the crisis and must win.” After his address at the Opening of-the afternoon session Gen. Weaver, chairman of the committee on resolutions, submitted the fallowing majority report: Resolved, That the delegates to the St. Louis convention be instructed to do all in their power to secure a union of all the reform forces on a common ticket and a platform embodying the fundamental principles of the Omaha platform, with a further resolution favoring the initiative and referendum. The minority report was: We recommend 'the adoption of the Omaha platform in full, with initiative and referendum added. After a brief but exciting discussion the majority, report was -adopted by an overwhelming vote. The following delegates to the St. Louis convention were selected by the districts named: First district, G. W. Davis of Louisa and J. M. Holland of Henry; second, Dr. 0. W. Wirth of Jackson, and T. A. J. Gray of Muscatine; third, Justin Wells of Hardin and C, G. Colvin of Blackhawk; fourth, L. H. Weller of Chickasaw arid M. H. Daly of Floyd; fifth, W. H. Calhoun of Marshall and L. S. Wood of Linn; sixth, S. W. Brunt of Keokuk and John R. Clarke of Monroe; seventh, Klem Wheeler of Warren and P. F. Rogers of Dallas; eighth, J. N. McClanahan of Wayne and E. F. Willets of Page; ninth, A. M. Hutchinson of Pottawatamie and L. H. Hull of Guthrie; tenth, J. C. Baker of Palo Alto and Benjamin Spear of Green; eleventh, John Bevins of Woodbury and M. D. Baumer of O’Brien. Gen. Weaver was chosen to head the list of delegates at large to St.-Louis by acclamation. BROAD GAUGE PLATFORM. Ohio Prohibitionists Abandon Their Fight on the Single Issue. in the Ohio Prohibition State convention at - tndiay there was a spirited contest over the money plank, the majority of the committee favoring the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and the minority advocating free coinage at a ratio to be fixed by law. The majority report was adopted. The platform declares in brief: Favors woman suffrage; opposes alien ownership of land; favors government control of railroad's and telegraphs; advocates the raising of revenues by taxation on property and incomes, import duties to be levied only as a means of securing equitable commercial relationsf declares for Sunday rest; opposes public appropriations for sectarian purposes; favors the election of President, Vice-Presidentnrnd Senators by direct vote; favors liberal pensions; asks for a revision of the immigration laws; favors letting aliens vote After one year from the time of full naturalization; fhvors.the Initiative apd referendum, and declares for free ._cojj}&ge at 16 to 1.

After the platform had been Adopted the following State ticket w as nominated: For Secretary of State. Alvin Crabtree, of Springfield; for Supreme Judge, M. B. Chase, of Marion; for Dairy and Food Commissioner, Joseph Love, of Coshocton; for member Board of Public Works, Charles E. xlofj', of Cincinnati; for elec-tors-at-large, ltev. W. Ball, of Mount Vernon, and 3. W. Benfiekl, of Dayton. Nine delegates to the national convention were chosen, as follows: G. P. -.acklin, Dayton; H. A. Thompson, Springfield; Henrietta G. Monroe, Springfield; K. S. Thompson, Springfield; L. B. juogan, - -nance; G. T. Stewart, Norwalk; Seth 11. Ellis, Springboro; F. H. Jones, Wellsville; Florence Richards, Ottawa. ALABAMA DEMOCRATS, Indorse President Cleveland and the Free Coinage of Silver. The Alabama Democratic State convention nominated a full ticket, headed by J. T. Johnston for Governor. The resolutions adopted advocate free coinage of silvert ir l; in s tru et the twenty-two delegates from the State to vote as a unit on all questions at the Chicago convention, advocate the repeal of the 10 per cent State bunk tax, favor honest elections and the legalizing of primary elections. The convention enthusiastically applauded the mention of President Cleveland’s name and ndopted a resolution indorsing his foreign policy and the appointment of Southern men to cabinet positions, but disapproving his financial policy. The votes in the various stages of the convention’s proceedings showed the relative strength of the two factions to be abont 033 to 101 in favor of Captain Johnston and the free silver men and against the Democrats who, under the leadership of Congressman Clark, hold to the financial policy of the national administration. Political Pot. Populists of Nebraska will meet in Grand Island July 15 to select State delegates. A nominating convention will ba. held in Hastings at some date in August, to be fixed by the executive committee. The Connecticut Republican State convention met in New Haven and selected delegates to the national convention. The platform opens with a declaration in favor of a protective tariff and the reciprocity plan advocated by the late James G. Blaine. Upon the currency question tfie convention says: “We are unalterably opposed to the issue of unsecured paper money, either by the Government or the banks; the free coinage of silver at any ratio, s"d favor- i} single standard of value, and that standard gold.” Senator Tillman addressed 5,000 people at Owensboro, Ky., attacking the financial policy of thie national administration. .ln-.axaucua.aLiifaitkhx>r.Q, Y-L, ta.afi-. lect delegates to the Republican State and district conventions an informal ballot to get the sense of the meeting resulted: McKinley, DO; Reed, 22; Allison, 1. McKinley delegates were chosen. Chairman Charles C. Maflitt, of the Missouri Democratic State Committee, has resigned his position, but will remain a member of the committee. The refusal of the Sedalia convention to ratify his nomination as a district delegate to the Chicago convention is scud to be the reason.

Some Modern “Big Things.”

One of the largest checks ever drawn in this country was $16,000,000, by President Roberts, of the Pennsylvania Railroacl, in payment, of 200,000 shares of P., W. & B. R.?R. Mock. V The English Royal Naval architect says that a. “perfect” modern rnan cfwar should not weigh less than 25,000 tons, and cost at least £2,000,000 or sl9000.000., _ .. , y The pavement in front of the William H. Vanderbilt residence In New York City Cost over $40,000. The single stone lying directly in front is the largest known paving stone, and cost, transportation and all, $9,000. A redwood plank exhibited at the Kansas City exposition. was 16 feet long, 7 feet 9 inches wide and 5 inches thick. The largest bronze casting ever rjiade in America is the buffalo’s head which hangs at the eastern entrance of the Union Pacific bridge between Omaha and Council Bluffs. The largest statue in the United States is Bartholdi’s “Liberty Enlightening the World,” which stands on Bedloe Island, New York harbor. The Statue alone, without base or pedestal, weighs 400,000 pounds. The highest building in the world, monuments and towers not considered, is the Cologne Cathedral. The height of this building from the pavement to the copper tip on the spire is 511 feet. The great hammer at the Woolwich Gun Works, Woolwich, England, weighs forty tons, and its drop is a sheer fall of forty-four feet three inches. The 5,000-horse-power pumping engine in the mines at Freidensville, Pa., raises 17,900 gallons of water at each revolution of its gigantic fly-wheel.— St. Louis Republic.

An Amusing Story.

A writer In tbe Cosmopolitan tell* the following amusing story at the expense of an English official: " I was once, she says, in my capacity of tourist visiting .Windsor Castle, and had a long conversation with a big, burly, bronzed old English soldier, who pointed out to me all the beauties of the surrounding country, and told me in what battles he had won his various ■decorations. While we were talking, a French woman came up to ud and said with painful effort: “Ees ett permeeted to viseet. Eton?” The soldier started at her, stolid and dumb. She repeated her question. ‘'The school, Eton, ees eet pttrmeeted that I may viseet?’’ SUU no answer, i volunteered a translation. His face broke'jnto smills. “Certainly, madam, certainly,” he said politely. “Airy hour yon please.” „nd then turning to me: “Amazing, isn’t it, the difficulty I have understanding these foreigners. Now, with you people from across the Atlantic I never have any trouble at all. Not a bit more than if you were English.” I said that it was very pleasant to feel that L eonid make myself Intelligible, and that there was without doubt a strong similarity in our tongues; and I went on my way rejoicing.
