Stanley announcing his anival at Mpwapwa, and stating that he expects to reach Zanzibar in four or five days. Mr. Stanley’s dispatch also states that he has made the important discovery that there is an extension of Lake Nyanza. The German Consul at Zanzibar confirms the report of the safety of Dr. Peters. The North German Gazette has advices to the same effect. A Constantinople cable siys: The trial of Moussa Bey, the Kurdish chief accused of maltreating the Christian population of Armenia, has begun. Contrary to general expectation, the proceedings are public. The specific charges against Moussa are murder, arson, and pillage. FRESH AND NEWSY. Exports from the United States for the year ending October, 1889, were $798,468,752, against $678,428,841 in 1888; and the imports were $765,413,777, against $722,978,245 in 1888. Billy Edwards, of New York has received a telegram from Santa Cruz, Cal., authorizing him to announce to sporting men that the town would put up a purse of $30,000 for a meeting between John L. Sullivan and Peter Jackson if the match was fought there. It is supposed that the men will battle at the pavilion, where 8,000 or more spectators could see at $lO each. Edison s company is formed and plans completed for placing phonographs in the various post offices in Mexico, for the accommodation of persons unable to write.

Secretary Tracy has made arrangemsnts by which the navy will be furnished with the Brown prismatic powder for large guns and the new smokeless powder for smaller arms. Senok Valente, the Brazilian Minister at Washington, has received the following important cablegram, which shows that the republic has been accepted by all the provinces of Brazil: Rio de JAxmno.—l inform you that, all the provinces have signified their adherence to the Repub ic a’ml Provisional Government without any resistance or protest. <The Government, has extended the right to voe to all citizens, except those una 1 ■ to read or write. The Archbishop, head of the ctmrch in Brazil, has conferred to-day his solemn benediction upoa ti.e Government and the Republic. Rmr Barboza, Minister of Finance. In reply to a mi gestion that cable dispatches from Germany stated thit there was danger of a division of Brazil into three parts, Minister Valente said that the above telegram was a complete refutaton of all such reports. It showed that Frazil was united, end that the sentiment of every province was in favor of a republic. R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade says: The Brazilian revolution has had surprisingly little influence on the markets as yet; coffee is only an eighth higher lor the week, and the new Government appears to bo so generally sustained that apprehension of closing of ports or interruption of trade has almost ceased. But. it is possible that the money markets were indirectly affected to some extent through Europe, where the uncertainty continues. Hero money has been scarce and dear at times, tight at Philadelphia, and decidedly close at Boston. The heavy exports of domestic products give strong assurance that the money market will hardly bo disturbed by demands from abroad. The marketing of crops am! movement of money from New’ York to pay tor them have produced an easier situation at Western and Southern centers. The great industries are making steady progress. Iron and steel are strong. The cotton manufacture has b.e.i doing a steady business, with firm prices. The woolen goods business does not appear at Boston to be improving to any great extent, but there hat been more activity in the wool market. Montevideo hides have sold nt the lowest price for thirty-five years, but more demand for leather is noticed at Boston. Hardware is also selling well, and lumbir is in good demand. Wheat has risen and corn ^c. Gate rosa s^e, and pork products are higher. The general course of prices has been upward, however, the advance since Nov. 1 having averaged about Di per cent on all commodities. At Chicago the dressed beef receipts are double those of last year, and of provisions more than double, while the dry goods trade still show’s satisfactory results, with payments easy in the country. The Minneai>olis market is active, trade is satisfactory therewith improving collections and business is improving at Kansas City. On the whole the outlook remains favorable. The business failures number 277, as compared with 205 the previous week, and 267 the week before that, lor the corresponding week of last year tho figures were 2J6. GOVERNMENT APPOINTEES.

THE ARIZONA KICKER. The Editorial Burdens Which Editors Bear Gracefully. We extract the following items from i the last issue of the Arizona Kicker: “They Will Know More.—A combination calling itself the Acme Opera ( 1 Company, of Chicago, gave a show of ' ' some sort at Reynolds’ Hall last Fri- 1 day night. No free tickets were sent , ‘ to this office, and when xve sent our half-breed roller boy over to the man- , ager with a note asking him why in Texas he had neglected such an im- , port ant duty, he returned word that the Kicker could kick and be hanged i to it. We therefore kicked. We . hired Cooper’s hall for the same night, ’ gave a free dance, and the Acme . Opera Company opened to an audi- ’ ence composed of the landlord’s crosseyed boy and two old half-breeds who 1 thought somebody was going to be scalped. “There’s nothing mean about us. [ We simply want what is due to the I 1 1 profession, and what has been granted ’ it from time immemorial. M hen an amusement combination sets out to ignore us and make us sing small, somebody will certainly hear something , drop before getting to the top of the hill.” “Not Just Yet.—The Tom Cat Silver Mining Company sen* us a certificate of stock of the face value of SSOO last week, and asked us to editor! Aly men- ' tion the fact that the mine would ’ prove one of the greatest bonanzas of , the age for investors. We can’t conscientiously do it yet. We want to wait awhile ami see whether we are to , be assessed on the stock or not, and xve'd like to hear of some one who has . received a dividend. We used to take everything in silver stock that came along, and puff up their old swindles without stint, but we have made a change of base in this respect. We found that a company which would beat the public would also beat us.” “He Still Lives. —A Nebraska subscriber writes to inquire if there is another weekly published in this burg. There is. We have a chattel mortgage on everything but the red-headed, cross-eyed, lop-shouldered coyote who edits it, and can close him up at any minute; but we let him run on in order to keep him off the town. We rather like his audacity as well. He prints 180 copies, none of w hich can be read on account of the poor presswork, and yet he claims the largest circulation in the known world. He knows we own the very chair he sits in, but yet he devotes four columns each week to abusing us personally. “Yes, he still lives, poor old unfortunate. But we are going to give him rope for the winter. If he was bounced out, he might have to run for the Legislature." Detroit I're- Dress. That Little Tickling. You have been cautioned many times to | do something to get rid o! that little tickling i in your throat, which makes you cough once in u w hile and keeps you constantly clearing your throat. Your reply. "O. that's nothing." "It will get well of itself.” etc., will not cure it. nor will the disease stand still: it will grow worse or better. 1 his trouble uris*s from catarrh, and. as catarrh is a constitutional disease, the ordinary cough medicines ail fail to hit the spot. Wha you need is a constitutional remedy Hkh Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Many people who have taken this medicine lor scrofula, dvspensii, loss of appetite and other troubles have been surprised that it sh uld cure this troublesome cough. But to know tho actual cause of the cough is to solve the mystery. I’robably nea ly all cases of consumption could be traced back to the neglect oi some such slight atYection as this. The best authority on consumption says that this disease can be controlle 1 in its earlv stages, and the effect of Hood's Sarsaparilla in purtying the blood, budding up the general health, and expelling the scrofula taint which is the cause of catarrh and consumption, has restored to perfect health many persons on whom this dreadful disease seemed to have a Him hold. Light Lost in Windows. The loss of light in passing through glass has been tested by two physicists of Berlin. A simple translucent but not transparent glass diminished the I’ght twenty-seven per cent.; cathedral glass, both white with a slight ground tint, twelve and two-thirds per cent.; plain white Rhenish “double glass,” ten per cent. Ground glass w’ith cut stars and a white glass background, such as is found in house f nlights, obstructed sixty per cent, of the light; and plain ground glass with the background, forty per cent.

Zollinger. /sk your druggist r or it. Mo have persom.l knowledge that the above statement is correct. Dreier a- Bro., Diuggists. Written by a H icked Man. A party of girls, fair as the lily and as lovely as the day, sat chatting on one of the hotel piazzas. Said one of the number: “Giris, can you ever fancy anything so inconvenient? Fidele was taken sick this morning and I had to dress myself all alone.” “No!” in a chorus from ihe sympathetic listeners. “Yes, really; and comb my own hair and button my own boots.” “Impossible! How could you ever?” “Well, I didn’t suppose I could, but I did; and,” waxing confidential, “girls, that wasn’t all. There xvas a hole in my sunshade and I mended it myself.” “AVhy, Sally, explain; do. Did you actually sew it?” “No,” with a little laugh, “but it was in the black panel, and I just put a piece of black court-plaster in under the place. See? And girls (are you sure there isn’t a man around?), I mended one of mv silk ■stockings, too. I put a postage stamp over the hole—just that way.” Off came a pretty slipper, and sure ■enough, right on the sole of a shapely little foot was the patriotic emblem of the United States postoffice, showing that the wearer w r as on the Saratoga side of the Atlantic and not on the Baden-Baden side.— Saratoga letter. Tice Seat of Fain and I’leasure, The .nervous system, eften suffers a diminution of vigor, and causes mental annoyance, and even positive disturbance, without disease in the sensorium itself. It acts as a mere refiector, in many cases, of inaction in the ■stomach, and consequently of incomplete assimilation of the food by the blood. This, of course, weakens it, in common with the rest of the tissues, and renders it less able to bear without, suffering an ordinary strain that would make no impression upon strong nerves. To supply a deficit of strength, and remedy a, supersensitiveness in the nerves incident to a lack of vigor, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is far bettor adapted than any mere nervine or simple tonic, since the offspring of its use, complete digestion, is the vigorous and early parent of nerve force and quietude. Malarial attacks, 1 rheumatism, bowel, liver aud kidney complaints •succumb to the Bitters. The Fren'ch -army officers are now all :armed wdth revolvers; during the war of TB7O they h.ad none.

A School for Beggars. Two London boys of thirteen, the children of respectable parents, were recently charged with begging. The boys alleged that a woman trained them and other lads as beggars, and that she used to mind their decent clothes and supply them with rags to go out in. Her own boy, it was said, was the head of the gangiof juvenile beggars, and used to take the money, ■which partly went to his mother, and part in refreshments and visits to music halls. The mother of one of the lads said that she had been to this woman and warned her that if she heard that her boy’s clothes were kept again she would lock her up for unlawful possession. The defendants adhered to their statements about being supplied with rags, etc., and the magistrate said that if it was true, the woman really ought to be prosecuted. A police constable said he had seen the w oman, and she denied taking care of the boys’ clothes. Only the evidence of the boys could be obtained.

A Lesson in Patience. “Do be a little patient with the children. my dear,” said Mr. Bixby to his wife, when she spoke sharply to 'hem for upsetting her work-basket and sending its contents all over the floor. “Remember that you were a child yourself once, and the most obedient and pleasing children are those who are ruled by love. When they vex mo I—what iu ihe name of Moses do you mean, AVillie Bixby, by deliberately sticking your feet into my silk hat? If that don’t beat anything I ever heard! Now’ look at that hat, sir; look nt it! For half a cent I’d take you out into the woodshed and give you such a warming up as you wouldn’t forget as long as you live! I ought to do it!

It became ver.-’ bad. causing soreness of the bronchial tubes and a troublesome cough, which gave great anxiety to my triends and myself, as two brothers died from bronchial consumption.

A NEW INVENTION ^^^^iPALMEK'S MAGNEI IC INHALER^Mk J’atentcd June 19, I‘rio^ Ono Dollar. Magnetism and Menthol as a Remedial and Curative Agent. From time to time many Inventions and devices ‘ have been placed upon the market claiming to cure I catarrh, neuralgia, bronchitis, etc., many of which are said to contain electric or magnetic curative I powers. I lir. Palmer is a gentleman who has devoted a life ; ot study to the subject ot catarrh and diseases of the j head, throat, and lungs, and some time since he commenced a series ot experiments with a view to . determining whether any combination could be termed which would kill the parasite and act as a healing imwer at the same time, and at length sueI ceeded in determining t hat ineuthol. when combined with magnetism, would do so. but how to arrange these seemingly opposite agents so as to reader their use convenient and effectual was a question of Rome difficulty. At length he succeeded iucoufining within a vulcanite tube three inches long and about three-quarters of an inch in diameter a perfect magnetic battery in the form of a coil o f steel wire. >n the interior of this battery is stored a Hue grade of imported menthol. The ends of the tube are closed by nickel caps, which, when removed, admit of the tree inhalation of the electro memlmiizedair. The menthol acts ns a gernmeide, whde the magnetoelectric force stimulating the weakened nerves ot the diseased parts into healthy action forms a wow derlul healing power, thereby successfully stopping any further depredations. The fumes when inhaled are refreshing and cooling. and for the immediate relief and speeuycureot catarrh, cold in the head, hay fever, headache,neuralgia. catarrhal deafuess. etc., it is uusqualed. It cures headache in five, minutes. Sore throat is one of the diseases immediately affected by the inhaler. < Ine purchaser thus speaks ot the Inhaler: New Dihgik-s. Wis.. August b, ISS9.—2i.. J. Chicam>. I 11-: Dear Sui—inclosed you will find one dollar 1$1.00) to pay for Inhaler you sent me on JUJ 8. I do not know whether it will eurn me 0. dent ness or not. but I do think it prevents me Jrom hie ing the headache. I have only had the heauacna once since 1 received it; have been very mucn troubled with headache tor two or three years. Wishing yon success, and thanking you for your kindness, I am, with respect, yours truly, Philip A. Baxteb. Beware of imitation, as there a:e unscr.iputo™ persons ei gaged in the niannfneture of a sptinew in ba er that strongly resembles the genuine.
