Gladness 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 ortiy remedy with millions es 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 m anus actured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all repUtabledruggists. 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, then one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction. & «->,Radway'» J fm Ready U Relief. f { 'XlliiUfe- \ iJf L .

Fremont’s Monument.

Mrs; Gilo Hinton Huniker, of New York, has finished a design for a monument for John C. J'remont, to be erected in Rockland Cemetery, in Ban Francisco. monument illustrates the following story: In first expedition across the continent in 1542 he had made the ascent of what is now cllled Fretnont’s Peak, in Wyoming. There, upon a great rock, to which the name of Rock Independence has since"been given, the soldier made a mark, of which he has written: ‘‘Here, pot unmindful of the custom.of early travelers and explorers in our country, I engraved qn this rock

I made on. the hard granite the impression of a large cross, which I covered with a black preparation of India rubber, well calculated to resist the influence of wind and rain.” The cost of the monument is being defrayed by the associated pioneers of the Territorial days of California. A rock will be placed on thegrave in Rockland Cemetery, the elevation of which will be fourteen feet. The statue, *gybich will beof heroic size, is to be of bronze and will stand upon the rock.

Current Condensations.

Selfishness is self-destruction. A word spoken in due season, how good it is. ~ CaUtton isPoften wasted, but it is a very good risk to take. Better be ill-spoken of by one before all than by all before one. Occasions do not make a man frail, but they show wliat he is. The man who woiild reform the world needs to begin with himself. Beware of the man w r ho claims that any kind of a wrong is right It is not the clock that strikes the loudest which keeps the best time. It Ik because‘so many people see wrong that so many things go wrong. It has been discovered that there is something worse than a grocery store cigar: a joint cigar. There is a good deal of the loafer and dead beat; about every one who “visits” a great deal. When women find they are alone in a room, without any meil around, they pull up their garters. It is no kindness to a man to exaggerate the salary that he gets; his creditors may hear of it Tell your troubles to your pillow at night, and get the reputation of Jbeing a cheerful fool in the day- time. Marriage seems to give a woman a license and freedom to indulge in ■-many things she could not afford as a girl.

GREAT SEED HUMBUG.

COSTLY TRASH SUPPLIED TO THE FARMERS. Each Recipient of aFree Package Gets 1 Two-thirds of an Ounce, Mot Enough to Be Serviceable, and Uncle Sam Pays $165,000 a Year for. itCongressional Extravagance. Washington correspondence:

Humbug, thy name is Congress! Tpere never was a better illustration of this fact than the recent controversy A'* over the question of HI distributing fre e |gi seeds. Secretary fill Morton \waited to §jt put a stop to this ridjggaiculous abuse, which, jpHtgSin the last twenty JjfFv years, has cost the Vel« Government over $2,580,000; but the fill VI Congressmen object- | lIJRed because -they 111 ’ would be deprived

of the privilege of scattering complimentary prize packages among their constituents without cost to themselves. The hollowness of the fraud was strikingly exhibited when, a few weeks ago. Secretary Morton proposed to furnish totoach member of Congress 1,000 packages, every one of which should contain one large paper of big pejgs or corn'And fourteen papers of small seeds. This raised a row right away, because the legislators said' that 1,000 packages would not go around among their constituents. They obliged the Secretary to divide the seeds into packages of five papers, so as to give 5,000 to each Congressman, It was made clear to them that the packages of five papers each would be too smajl to be of any practical use, but that objection-was- ignored. It was not-de-sired that the seeds should be useful to the farmers and other people, but that they should serve the political ends of the Congressmen. Accordingly, the order was changed at a cost of about S6OO for tljp additional number of envelopes employed. 7; ~~ Not Enough to Be of Service. The law prescribes that the seeds shall be of “rare and uncommon varieties.” But the Congressmen will have nothing but ordinary garden and field seeds, ranging from-. nasturtium and pansy to corn and pons. Each package contains five little papers of seeds, amounting in all to about two-thirds of an ounce, and consisting of two-tenths of an ounce of cabbage seed, two-tenths of an ounce of cucumber-seed, three-tenths of an ounce of squash seed, three-tenths of an ounce of turnip seed and less than one-tenth of an ounce of tumatn see-d. J This is as much as any individual gets from the much-advertised distribution of free seed by .Congress. It is for this Chat the Government is paying out SBO,OOO tljhs year, without counting the cost of sending the packages by mail. The-cost of such a package to Uncle Sam, including the envelopes and printing, is 3-7 c. The actual expense of delivering it by mail is 4c in addition. For this expenditure the farmer receives a little gift which he could purchase at the country store for from one to three cents. I& any such store will usually be found on the counter several boxes of assorted seeds, retailing fit frofii two cents to five (tents a paper. They arc just as good (is those furnished by the Government and the papers are apt to hold about twice as much. $105,000 Wasted Every Year. In every third package, of vegetable seeds sent out this year is a paper containing about one-sixth of a pint of pens or corn. Imagine how useful that is likely to be to the farmer. But as has been said, it is not intended to be useful to him; it is designed 11s a compliment-from the Congressman and to please the good wife and the children. The seed contracts enforced' by .Congress call this year for 10,125,000 papers of seed, costing the Government $75,000, to which must be added SBO,OOO for postal expenses. In other words, the so-called “free seed” this year will cost the people of the country nearly $165,000, besides injuring the legitimate seed trade to an extent representing an equal amount. The distribution is made in order, as a member of Congress said during the recent discussion, to show -thg-perof-tolling farmer at homsTfisrUm cle Sam remembers him and desires to assist him in his struggle for existence—to the extent, forsooth! of three-quarters of an ounce of seeds, which he must in the end pay for himself. Congress has increased the appropriation for the seed distribution for next year so as to make possible the purchase of about twiceuis much seed ns will be distributed this year. The recent fight in Congress has attracted so much attention to the seed distribution that applications for free seed have greatly increased in number. The distribution of seeds by the Government began in 1830 with the nppropriatioifoT fft'^®o; > which ent office for the purpose of collecting and giving away rare and improved varieties. Since that date, with the aid of steadily Increasing sums of money furnished by Cong Tess annually, every seed' that could be found anywhere offering a reasonable prospect of usefulness in any part of tlmycountry has been purchased and liberally distributed. People all ov.er the United States have already secured nearly all of the vegetable and field seeds, plants and trees that are adaptedito their peculiar soils and climates. It goes without saying that the obtainable number of vulunble and uncommon seeds is limited. Although a request is sent with each package for a report as to the result, not one recipient in 1,000 makes any response.

A BOUNTEOUS HARVEST.

It la Predicted by Those Who Stu4y the Crop Outlook. It U an accepted fact that whatever Conditions affect the agricultural interests pf-a cottntry will have u direct hearing on all Us other industries. In other words, whatever tends to aid pr injure farming pursuits will beneficently or disastrously affect e^cry"ijther important interest. It is a matterVor congratulation, therefore, that exceptionally favorable reports are received regarding the outlook for a splendid crop in the corn belt region. Copious rains hnd fallen during the spring and put the ground in splendid condition for seeding and growing. The fears of another drouth have long since been laid to rest and the agriculturist looks hopefully forward to a rich reward for his toil. .Not only does the fanner exjiect a good crop this year,'but the conditions tints far have been so much more favorable than in several years past. that;he expects a crop which will fully make up for a few short ones. Xor is the expectation without reason. There is not a single condition lacking, either of soil or weather, which should bring to the farmer. The soil has received more moisture in the shape of rain and snow than in many years and the weather lias been nil that could be desired for growing. Therefore, if all these signs count for anything, they indic.utc a *eur of prosperity throughout the grett"

West. Even before the first week in May almost half the corn was planted,' with considerable of it showing nicely above ground and doing well. In many localities it was even then several inches high. As the rainfall has been fairly frequent in its visitations during tfie portion of the season which has passed and fully up to normal, it is but fair to assume that this normal condition will continue, and that the hopes of the farmers will be fully realized. Reports from widely different localities the great corn producing States point to the fact that moisture has saturated the soil to a much greater depth than in many previous years. This is particularly true with regard to Nebraska, where the favorable outlook of the pfesent time has not, in man.? parts of the State, been excelled, ev,en in the opinion of old inhabitants. In fact, the prospect is so encouraging that farmers all over the State are letting go their corn and grain, to which they had been holding tenaeioiisly since, last harvest, in the dread that the drouth period was not at an end. They are now shipping it eastward in big quantities or feeding it to their stock and fattening pigs for the market. During the past week there has been 1 on exhibition in a - window of the city ticket office of the Burlington road at Chicago a sample of rye plucked” in Furnfts"County, Nebraska,, toward the end of April. It stood 33 to 34 inches high and' was, even at that early date, nicely headed. Alfalfa about the same time was knee high, and small grains were looking exceptionally advanced for that time of the year. The Chicago newspapers, realizing the close tie that binds it to the West, have dilated at frequent dates on the favorable prospect for a bounteous harvest;

CUBA’S AMERICAN PRISONERS.

Owen Milton and Alfredo Laborde, Who Werp- Cordatrned to Die. The American citizens who are causing all 'the trouble between Spain and the United States are Owen Milton, a news-

paper correspondent, and Alfredo _ Laborde, who was in command of the schooner Competitor when she was captured by the Spanish* gunboat. Milton is the son of D. W. Milton, who was a lieutenant in the Confederate army.

OWEN MILTON.

lie is but 23, a college man, of medium stature, with good features, a fair complexion and a slight mustache. Of late he had been living in Florida. He went thither from Arkansas, where he had been teaching school. He drifted to Key West, and was there a correspondent for several western newspapers. When the war came in Cuba he determined to go to the island, reach the insurgent lines, and furnish true stories of the revolution to American newspapers. He had en"gaged himseli to do this for aJacksonville paper among others, and was furnished with the usual credentials. Be-

fore leaving Key West Milton stipulated that part of his salary be sent to his father, who lives at Aurora, Ark. .All these facts go to disprove the Spanish claim that Milton was taken with arms in hand. The other Ameri- J

ALFREDO LABORDE.

can is Alfredo Laborde. He is 33 years old i\nd was born in New Orleans. His father is a retired colonel -in the Spanish army and lives in Havana. Captain Laborde has two brothers in New York and two sisters and five children near Havana. Another brother was one of the nine students who were shot in Cuba in 1871 for the desecration of Castonioni's grave. It was this event that moved the father to retire from the Spanish army. Laborde was twice married. His present wife, to whom he was wedded only a short time ago, is now residing witji her parents at Key West.

UNCLE SAM AND SPAIN.

He Puts His Foot Down on the E-.br posed l.xecntion of Americans. It is not improbable, indeed it is very probable, that before the Cuban revolutionary struggle is ended this country and Spain will find themselves at war. The situation between the two countries is very strained, even the British press, usually conservative r saving -that- matters could not be much graver than at present. The last of the events leading up to this was the seizure by the Spaniards of a filibustering schooner, the Competitor, and the trial by court martial and sentencing to death of five American citizens who took part in it. The Spaniards'had an indubitable right to seize the schooner, arrest the offenders and even try the Americans captured; but they violated treaty rights in trying them by court martial and against this act the American consul at Havana, Mr. Williams, protested. A stronger protest than his was, however, made. Secretary Olney -mmlo to the Spanish Government at compliance with his request the Spanish Government ordered the postponement of the executions until the views of the United States as regards the application in the matter of the treaties or agreements of 1795 and 1877 shall have been presented. This probably means that a new trial and that by ordinary .civil process shall be granted the prisoners. It is firmly held by the United States Government that the trial of |he men by court martial was a violation of the agreement of 1877, which provided that American citizens shall not be tried by “any exceptional” tribunal; and while Spain’s act in postponing the executions is a deference to this American view it greatly embarrasses the Spanish Government at home and abroad. At home there is danger of outbreaks, for the Spaniards in their present temper are American haters, and in Cuba Gen. Weyler is offended at the conciliatory Action of his Government and has sought to resign his office as commander-in-chief. His resignation has, however, not been accepted. While, doubtless, the incident will close pacifically, it shows that the situation is strained and that not much is needed to embroil the two countries in war.

Hill in Holland.

It seems absurd to speak of a hill in Holland, for if the best guessers are right, the name of the country Is from our word hollow, meaning a®depression in the land; but Captain Knight found at Groningen a hill that was the show.place of the town. It was artificial. “There Is a fine hill In the Plantaage,” said my companion, “and from the summit of It you will be able to . see the country for a great distance around.” It interested me greatly to hear:that there was such a thing as a hill in Holland. ■ “But where Is It?” I asked, looking round the interminable plain. "I can ,see no hill.” “It is just over there, but you cannot ~-*ee it, for it is hidden by that bush,” I ascended this fine hill, which-prov-(l to be an artificial mound not twenty feet in heigtit; but the nativesArevery proud of it, and speak of it as if it were some huge mountain. As an ijwtanee of how successfully a (Jroninger is deceived by his admiration for it. T may" mention that my companion heaved a deep sigh, mopped ills face, and dropped exhausted info a chair—thoughtfully placed there by the corporation, for this object—when he reached the summit. But to do this eny,nence justice, it must be allowed that the.hilLis beyond dispute above the level of the sea.

Opium.

The conflict known as the “Opium War,” ,ljy which the Chinese government was compelled to fiennit tlx: entrance of foreign opium within its limits, began in 1840 and continued two years. The circumstances leading to it dated from the last century, when Warren Hastings, fhen Governor General of India, determined to find a market for the,, opium of -the Ganges Valley. For many years it was smuggled into .China,. bub the Emperors, discovering the evil it w - as doing, took rigid measures to prevent this. From time to time, however, cargoes of opium found their way inland, until in 1839 a special Commissioner was sent to Canton, where the British had a foothortl. with Orders to exterminate the business. He did so thoroughly, drove out the British merchants and destroyed $10,000,000 worth of opiuln then in stock. The British government took up the catise of the merchants, sent a fleet and niilitary force from India, and in the war that followed the Chinese were worsted, were compelled to pay a large indemnity, to reimburse the owners of the Opium destroyed, and to open certain ports to all English products, opium among the rest.
