IF Captain Charles King feela tbe need of making hit* army stories more sensalional he can find ready made material at Ft. Sheridan.
THB whisky trust, aA a corporation, did not make a great amount of money out of the scheme by which the stock market was worked both ways, but some of the men who are in tbe trust did.
INDIANAPOLIS is to have the next Pythian national encampment. It is to be hoped that tbe city will take extra precautions to prevent a repetition of tbe Boandal that followed tbe G. A. R. encampment.
To keep up with the latest records for speed, whether It be around the mile track or across the ocean, one must not skip an issue of the daily newspaper Home new record, either by a trotting or pacing or running horse, or bicyclist, or steamship, in announced nearly every day.
IN Mr. Cleveland's letter to Catchings there is a good deal about free raw materials, coal, Iron ore, etc., but not a word about free sugar. Free sugar was not what the Havemeyers wanted. The senate bill was exaotly to their liking. The strong probability is that if it had not been Mr. Cleveland would have followed out his strong desire and vetoed It.
THE prospuet of Cleveland as the candidate of his party In 1896 is received with less incredulity than it was a few months ago. And, it will be a palpable necessity that he be nominated If tbe mass of the party continue to follow his lead on the tariff question. The theory will be that bin ta#k hn» not beeu completed and therefore tne objection to a third tferrn will not hold good.
THK story Is told that Mrs. W. K. Vanderbllt wants a divorce and that her husband is willing that she should have it, but that they disagree on the terms of financial settlement. She wants the •mansions lu New York, Newport and
Islip, and .1300,000 a year. He made a counter proposition for less liberal terms, which sh« has refused, and there you are. It Is something new to have a domestic scandal in a Vatulerbilt family. Like the Gould family, the Vanderbllts have always bseu understood to enjoy beautiful home life
THK .St, Louis Olobe-Domocrat is congratulating the people of that city because their industrial and commercial affairs are conservatively prosperous. The newspaper points out that the trait which Chicago poople designate as "slowness" has been tho safeguard of
those of a questionable nature. Terre Haute Is not unlike St. Louis In many respects.
MI.HS FRANCES WILLARD has caused a sensation In temperance circles by drinking unformented wine with her tneals at Chautauqua. Whilethe liquid is said to be harmless tnauy of the W. C. T. U. people are aghast at the conduot of the high priestess of temperance, and some go BO far as to say that

A BROOKLYN judge has decided a school vaccination case like the one we had here by holding that the prlnoipal of the school had the right to exclude pupils who had not oomplied with the vaccination order. Hi® honor took the broad ground that education in the public schools Is a privilege and not a right and that children who do not abide by any of the rules and regulations may be excluded. The question as to the efficacy of vaccination received but scant attention as the oourt held that It ws» accepted as an established feet the world over and one not to be taken into serious consideration now.
GKNBRAL MANAOKR ST. JOHN, of the Rock Island road, had the true situation in regard to compulsory arbitration down to a fine point when he totd the investigating commission that If a man f«ela aggrieved by the decision he cannot render as good service a* If he were satlsOed. "It l» better for him to go somewhere else^" said Mr. St. John. "Friendly relatione between employer and employe are essential to the sueceea of any business, railroad* as well every other form of business." Therein is the beginning and end of this socalled, contest between capital and labor, Until i* recognised, on both sides.

that such friendly relations are absolutely necessary to the promotion of mutual Interests, that the spirit of antagonism mast disappear, there will continue to be disorderly strikes. Grad aally the lemon is being learned, and tbe next great railroad strike will find even more roads which will escape, com pamtively, the ill effects because these friendly relations had been established.
WHEN congress adjourned for theses sion this week tbe sertreant-at-arms the house bad $20,000 on hand which belonged to tbe appropriation for the sal arles of members, but which wHl never be drawn. It is tbe amount members were docked for absenteeism. The house adopted a rule that ameraber draw tbe full amount of his salary must sign a statement that be had not been absent from any day's session. The rule was to prevent the frequency of "no quorum," and in that respect worked well. The pity of it is that men who serve In a body like the national house of representatives have to under the threat of a fine to make them attend to their duties.

COLORADO'S sensational governor was arrested Tuesday on a warrant issued by a United States commissioner, in which be was charged with opening a letter addressed to another person. Several of his Denver police officials were also arrested on the same charge. It seems that the letter was addressed to a former police matron. The governor was very indignant over his arrpst, which he denounced as an outrage, and said that he had not opened tbe letter that he had only listened to the reading of it. Colorado is paying dearly for its whim In electing this man to tbe highest office in the state. He has done more to oreate a bad impression of Colorado than all that has happened in that state In many years. __________
LIFE AND DEATH.
Medical scientists never before were so muoh engaged in studying the secrets of nature that humanity might be spared so far as possible the ills that flesh Is heir to and that life might be prolonged. In the same week when we read that a reputable authority gives a hint that there is a probability that the average tenure of life may be greatly extended we also read that BO eminent a scientist as Dr. Koch has discovers! a oure for diphtheria. Also, we read the opinions of the leading physicians of Chicago as to the necessity for the surgical operation In cases of appendlcltus, an operation never undertaken until comparatively a few years ago, but now of so common occurence that it escapes passing notice except when the patient dies under tbe operation.
Dr. Koch's discovery is entitled to first rank if it indeed be a speoifio, or at least a remedial aid in the treatment of the one disease above all others that causes physicians the world over to throw up their bands in helpless awe of its death dealing power. It is said, in the first place, that the mistake should not be made in crediting the disoovejy with more than Is claimed for it by Dr. Koch himself. The famous German scientist fared badly in public opinion when his former discovery was heralded to the world as meaning the extinction of the disease to which It was to be applied when as a matter of fact no one was justified in making the broad claims for the remedy which has done and is yet doing all that was claimed for it by Dr. Koch.
Dr. Koch in his searoh for a! remedy for diphtheria first sought an antidote for the polslon which the disease left In the,blood. It was noted that persons who had had any disease were for a greater or loss time afterwards free from it.- It was believed this immunity arose from
D£lf
poison of tho germ, and Dr. Kech set about producing thiH unknown agent. Large animals were given the loeifler bacilli in small drops, and, though at first made siok from the poison, they finally became Immune. This occurred In from four to six months. Satisfied that the anti-toxlne had developed in the blood of an animal, a portion of it was thrown off and the animal allowed to recover, when the treatment was renewed. Lest the blood when injected Into the human body should produoe fever, whloh usually results, the serum was extracted from it. This contained the antl-toxlne, and when lnjeoted bypodermlcally It was found to be an almost absolute cure for diphtheria. Upon well persons It has no effect.
The result of the treatment of 400 patient* shows that all were oured when lnnoculated within twenty-four hours. The New York health board sent a specialist to Germany to Investigate the disoovery and on hla report an appro* priation will be asked for to build stables, boy cattle, employ skilled veterinary surgeons and dispense the antitoxine to physicians. Hie ravages of the disease appall one when the vital statistics are produced. While it has been generally known that Terre Haute has suffered in the past few years yet when it is said that more than 200 children have died from it, the need of a remedy is better appreciated. In this state daring last year there were 1,064 deaths, more than were caused by pneumonia.

A VOORSKES STORY.
Congressman Bynum relafce^a story that is going the rounds in Detngcratie circles. During the contest for Speaker Mr. Bynum was in conversation ^Uh Senator Voorhees, when Jason Brown joined the party. Tbe names of thedifferent members were discussed and an opinion expressed as to how they would vote. Mr. Brown said that Congrfcsa man Holman would vote for Mills. »*I will bet you $5that he won't," Senator Voorhees. 0^ -jfjH "Yes, he will. I know what I am taking about," said Mr. Brown. "All right my money talks," and/after some discussion, the money was given to Bynum as stakeholder. "M. "It is just like robbing you, DjfJi, said Mr. Brown "and I don't want ft* win your money. Holman told me that he intended to vote for Mills." "Did Holman tell yon personally that he would vote for Mills?"*« .*v "Yes, he did. You can pull down the bet if you desire."

Deafness Cannot
be
Cared
by local applications, as they cannot reach tbe diseased portion of tbe ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining dt the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound of imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely olosed Deafness is tbe result, and unless tbe inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but an inflamed condition of tbe mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be oured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.
