KKRE HAUTE, IND., OCT. 26. 1885.

EVIDENTLY Madeline Pollard is no longer an issue in Kentucky, for "Willie" Breckenrldge Is drawing big orowds down there to bear him sp»atc.

CARNEGIE has been awarded a big con tract for furnishing armor plates for Russian war vessels. If he attempts any of the pranks with the Czar that he played on Uncle Sam, be will not get off with a remission of the fine.

FROM the way prominent Democrats In Kentuoky are deserting their candi date for governor, the managers there will have to withold returns from a few more of the back counties than usual it they expect to carry tbat state.

BOARDING mistresse* -throughout the country will hail *y iih deljgluthe information that comei 1rotd" o14goh: that there will be a crop of over ten million pounds of prunes this year. There will be no difficulty in getting their boarders full of prunes at a very reasonable cost during the coming season.

IF there is one thing more disgusting than any other that the newspapers handle it is the attention to details that are furnished in regard to the Duke of Marlborough. His every day move mente are given as thoroughly as if be were some person of consequence instead of a whipper snapper who is to be paid three millions of dollars for giving Miss Vanderbilt the privilege of calling her self a member of tbe British aristocracy

BY order of the secretary of the navy, the new war vessel, Maine, is to go to Portland, tbat state, to Receive the valuable memento to be presented by tbe people of the Pine Tree-state in-honor of the name. The Hoosiers will never be satisfied, now, until tbe new ship, In dlana, tbe finest w*r vessel in tbe world, in every respeot', allowed to„ jQome up the White river to Indianapolis, tore oelve'the silver service the people of In diana have contributed to her equip ment. ./

IT is announced from the state department that there is no hope of securing tbe release of ex Consul Waller, who is oonfined in a French prison, under a twenty year sentence, for furnishing to the natives of Madagascar information concerning their, Frenoh Opponents. There is nothing in this announcement more, than was expeoted. If Waller, however, had been an English citizen, with no stronger case than the state department says he has, he would long before this have been breathing the air of freedom.

THK doctors cannot make up their minds to agree on tbe merits of tbe new remedy for diphtheria, anti-toxin, but tbe practical results following tbe use of tbat remedy indicate tbat it materially reduces the death rate of tbe terrible disease. The reports of the health authorities of New Yorlf show that during the first nine months of tbe years 1891, *92, '93 and '94 there were 20,000 cases of the disease in that city, of which 3,936, or 84.66 per cent., were fatal. During the past season there have been 7,921 cases there, of which 1,648 were fatal, or but 19.43 per cent. In ail tbe large olties tbe authorities have taken bold of the antitoxin, with the idea of making Its use general, and thus far the renults have been highly satisfactory. It is not an infallible remedy, but it seems that it greatly reduces the death rate of a dls ease, that up to the introduction of ttiis remedy, defied the efforts of the most skilled praotltloners and Hpeolaliste£

SENATOR SHERMAN has let oonoealment, like a worm in the bud, prey upon htm these many years, and now in his new book he makes very plain the fact that he thinks he has been mistreated by the Republican party and the leaders thereof. Better equipped, perhaps, than the majority of the candidates of any party for that high office, he met with humiliating defeat In every convention In which his name was presented, the most humiliating of all being that of 1880, when Garfield, who nominated the Ohio senator, was himself given the prim of the convention. There seems to be no question but that Qarfield was a traitor to Sherman, but tbe show of feeling on the part of the latter at this late, date, oan do him no particular good, sod were better not dtsplayed. However, the sore has been troubling htm to* many years, and perhaps now that It has been publloly discussed its pain will be relieved. ThepublfchftVs of the book have been enabled to secure some first olass advertising free of post by the dUjousslon of the Qarfield portiorf ojf tbfe Sherman memoirs, ifo matter how well they m«y be advertised §§s likely tg

possessed by the statesman rather than by the soldier would have uiade him president many yearn ego. "Old Teou nip's" ©ntbusiastlo soldier boys might have made htm president, bat he didn't want the office, while John wanted it and couldn't get it, beoauae there was no enthusiasm behind him.

THK sergeant at arras of the United States senate, Richard J. Bright, is a well known Democrat of this state, and reports indicate that he is a politician of tbe most intensely prsotical sort. It is said that he is going to become a Re publican before the meeting of Congress in order that he may be re elected by the Republicans to the position he now holds, which has at its disposal about $175,000 in offices. A great many men have changed their politlos for less than this, and Mr. Bright is evidently to be olassed with the Flannagan style of pol iticlans, Flannagan being the man who wanted to know in a national convention, ••What are we here for?"

THE people of New York City have an opportunity in next month's eleotion to DO in pie te the overthrow of Tammany so auspiciously begun last year, but from reports they do not seem to be taking much interest in the matter. As UHual it is the "good" citizens, from whom such efforts are expeoted, who are neglecting their duty. The registra tion of voters in tbat city for this week shows that there will be a large falling off in the vote, and as usual it is in the wards in whioh the truly good are popularly supposed to dwell. In one dls' trict whioh includes some of the heaviest taxpayers in the city there were 4,914 Voters registered at this time last year, while but 1,500 are now registered. The people of the metropolis hav^suffered greatly at tbe hands, of Tapatnany, but if they'do uottak^anym'or^ interest in an election which means so much to them they oertalnly deserve to be placed at-tbo'meroy of tbe most corrupt political organization in the world.

WAR nearer home between two prize fighters has monopolized publio atteh tion this week, and we have very few stories about tbe Cuban rebellion. From the meagre details furnished the revolution is no nearer suppression than it has been. In fact, Spain bas the biggest job on her hands of recent years, and it is said the seven years' Carlist war did not put as severe a strain on tbe militar and financial resources of the mother country as has tbe insurrection in Cuba In fact Spain has suffered more from war than any other country during the prsent century, and her troubles have not yet ended. The Cubans have.oi^an ized a government, and a^, sooii ^3 .it gains tbe slightest stability 'it is prdbscble that the revolutionists will be"re cognized as belligerents by many of tbe leading nations of tbe world. Wheti^ this recognition comes tbe Cubans wij| succeed in their efforts to make an in^e^ pendent nation of the island that i» ndw the scene of a sanguinary conflict, in whioh tbe most unheard of methods are employed both in the conduot of the war and tbe efforts to suppress it. .,

OP the forty-four governors of the different states of the union who were asked by a Chicago paper for an ex presslon of their religious sentiments, forty-two replied, showing tbat ten of them are Presbyterians, five Eplsoopa lians, five Congregationalists, four Methodists, and three Unitarians, while the remainder with bat few exceptions are attendants upon religious servioes, though not ohurch members. The governor of Texas, who is a practical enough Christian to call a speoial session of the legislature to seoure tbe passage of a law to prohibit prize fighting, declined to define his religious sentiments, and the governor of South Carolina made no answer. The Presbyterians predominate in tbe gubernatorial offioes, which calls attention to the faot that members of this faith have always been prominent and powerful in politlos, and have always been able to seoure their share of the publio offices. Since 1884 tbe occupants of tbe White House have been Presbyterians, as have several of their predecessors. Several of them have been Episcopalians, and the first president was a member of that religious faith.

Use It in Time.

Catarrh starts In the nasal passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat, and is in feet, the greatest enemy of tbe mucous membrane. Neglected colds in the bead almost invariably preoede oatarrh, oausing*o excessive flow of mucus, and if W* fflttoous discharge becomes interrupted the disagreeable results of oatarrh will follow, such as bad breath, severe patn across the forehead and about the eyefe, a roaring and bussing sound In the ears and oftentimes a very offensive discharge. Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged on re for these troubles.
