All are better, though the servant is very ill, and her east' may yet prove fatal. Dr. Falcon bury gays that the symptoms indicate poison from .roton oil, and he can acoount for it in no other way than that some misoreant threw some of the oil in the well, and it was brought up by use of the chain pump. Saved by ft Dog. James Tilson, a young man living east of Frsnklin, has a dog thst no money could buy, for .had it not been for the dog he would now have been in his grave. The other day, while young Tilson wot. plowing on his fathors farm, a large black snake, six feet long, jumped on libn from the tall grass lining the field, and wound itself around his nock. A terrible battle ensued between Tilson and the (make, and the outcome would probably have been death to the young man had not his large shepherd dog, whioh had been following him, oome to his assistance, and between them the snake was killed.

Perry Million, of Jefferson Township, Carroll County, died reoently. He was an enterprising and prosperous farmer, and his funeral was one of the largest ever held inthe connty. He died of typhoid f over. John Hockert, of MUlerburg, a railroad brakeman, was struck by a low bridge near Brimfield and killed. This is the third person killed in the same way by this bridge within a week, and its removal has been ordered. Heimburger fc Wilson's grocery store at Martinsville wag entered by burglars, who broke a'glass in a rear window and crawled in at a hole about eighteen inches square. Several dollars left in the money drawer is all that was taken. In tho Wabash Circuit Court William Gidjey has brought suit to set aside the will p his father, William Gidley, of Roanoj, who died in 1388, having left his estate; of $40,000 to other ohildren. It is assorted that the old gentleman's mind was) impaired by illness, and that he was subjected to outside jnfiitenoe in drawing up the document. Abdui a year ago Freddie, the 14-year-old Aon of Samuel Hodapo, disappeared frjom bis home in Seymosr, and all efforts! to find a trace of him since iline. The tber aay a letter was received from the b-oy, dated at Louisville, In which be salid that he had been at that place all thir time, but gave no reason for his strange conduct. His parents had given him up for dead. Amos Hurold, a 13-year-old boy lining near Trafalgar, Johnson County, is suffering from a most remarkable ailment. His knee joi&ts, ankles, and jaws have become oeroented together with a bony substance, and he is now in an almost helpless condition. The boy has been afflicted with the strange disease almost two years, and has received all nourishment during that time through a tubs inserted iu his- mouth by the removal of a tooth. The directors of the Spencer Gas Company have ordered the driller to stop work at 1,100 feet, having secured a strong-flow of water, whioh rose forty feet above the surface. Competent authority has pronounced this water richer in mineral remedial agents than that of any well in the State, with less of the usual objections! odor and taste. Bathhouses will be put .up ap soon as a thorough analysis of the water is made. Fish Commissioner Dennis has been at Kokomo recently getting samples of water below the straw-board mill to be subjected to chemical analysis. The Kokomo Tribune says that the farmers are up in arms, claiming that the stench arising from the refuse matter and the dead flub, is dangerous to publio health, and that the water is injurious to stock drinking it, or even wading into it. The case will be stubbornly contested on both sides. - A. C. Staley, president of the Sat ley woolen-mills, of South Bend, was by a mistake of a druggiBt, given morphine instead of quinine for a billions complaint, with probably fatal results, Mr. Staley took the dose on retiring at night, but the mistake was not discovered until next morning, when his wife attempted to arouse him. Physicians have constantly worked with him since then, but have not been able to arouse him from the stupor produced by the fatal drug. Mr. Staley basalways been identified with public interests, and was ft man of advanced years. Baruhart, who claims to be a spirit medium directly influenced by St. Paul, has a considerable following in neighborhood north of Hartford City. Barnhart claims that among other revelations made to him by the spirits was one locating a large amount of gold nuggets on a farm in the section referred to. He claims that the nuggets were buried by an Indian chief, who, by order of St. Paul, revealed the fact without precisely pointing out the buried treasure. The result has been the digging up of the land in various parts of the neighborhood by Humbert's followers. Of coarse no gold has been found, Albert Cox attempted to escape from tho Sheriff, at Martinsville, while under arrest. Several deputies, somo on horseback, were soon in pursuit. The Sheriff drew his revolver and fired twice, hoping to frighten Cox into surrendering. He kept on, however, and was just entering a large cornfield, when he was completely exhausted, and, falling, was unable to go on. He whipped out a large knife as the officers oame up and was only retaken o t tho muzzle of a revolver. Cox is wanted to answer to the charge of robbery. Six months ago he accosted John Oliver, a pensioner, on the outskirts of that oity, asking him to give him change for 60 cents. Oliver took out his pockit-book, filled with his pension money, when Cox grabbed it from him and escaped. Chrsley Chambers is now a free man.

MISSISSIPPI BOUBBQSS, A Thoroughly Characteristic Manifesto issued by the Democratic State Committee. r,rockson,(Mla) special. The State Democratic Executive Committee, with a foil attendance, in session here, adopted and promulgated the following address : To the Democracy of sfisslsslpp! : .Inspirited by Presidential patronage dispensed without regard to fitness or capacity. In open contempt of civil service reform, which was a lending pretilse in the platforms of both political unities, aud dispensed at the Benthos would not on vontured up ah the North ; encouraged by tho hope of further political spoils; banking on the Ignorance and the unfounded race prejudices of the blacks and tho cupidity of unprincipled whites, a few untiorapaloos demagogues, who nssntne to constitute the Republican party in Mississippi, give out their purpose to iaaugurage another campaign. Our people have a keen remembrance of the rna and ?j)8olatiou which marked their long lo3.se of po.Ter in the State. Flaunting arrogance, plunclor, and brazen spoliation were their watch ' rords during (heir whole con tiol of affairs, which they then sought to maintain and now seek to restore by the basest appeal to tho colored voters and the unenlightened prejudices of race; by secret and incendiary leagues of ignorance, organized by corruption. It needs no or. ? anient to show that our own people who join his sonllesii band of plunderers are the enemies of our common civilization, the foes of both races and Irattors to their own, and that they deserve all the obloquy and scorn due to conspirators in infamy. Practically politics here is reduced to the suppression of elements of evil, which, unchecked, world Involve hideous social and political ruin, QuHsttoiiS ot national party differences are dwarfed before the dread of the manifold evils, the baukru ptcy and desolation, the strife and ruin which would inevitably follow the domination of such antagonists. Whilo wo have no fears ot defeat, wo urge upon Democrats the necessity for the maintenance of effective organization. It is only in the stagnant water of apathy that those political vermin are observable at the surface, and so wo warn Democrats against the dangers ot dissension sad division In the rank! ol the party. Democrat!, If we are not triumphant, considering the vast interests at stako and the character of the opposit ion and its vile motives, we well deserve the contempt we wiU everywhere receive, vr purposely rerram rrom any aimstonto part y question and refer ouly to the vamnire which hovers over us. awaltine onoortunitv to suck the ufeblood of the State. We advise instant and thorough organization, the formai0n or oiuns, irequunt anu upon sejnumes and publio addresses, aud tlie arousing of all the enthusiasm which tho occasion warrants. We must st ow the world that that race created to govern and which has governed all other races whero thrown in contact, will hi Mississippi stand by thu common civilization of tho Union which that rare has constructed and maintained, and that it sill never consent to lie ruled by any other racea race manipulated by renegades. The flag of a Caucasian civilization must float triumphantly at tho Bouth and in every other section ol this proud land and throughout Christendom. Our bretliren of the North, of alt parties, do not understand the situation here. We do, anil we would bo untrue to them, untrao to oursolvoii, and to all progress, to bo govoined by conscienceless demagogues, under tho lulee pretense that they represent a party. They represent no party, but only ignorance and the factious passions of an untrained race, which they themselves have excited, and they will never again control the State of Mississippi. If a Kepublican ticket is put in the field ibis year and no doubt there will be the most spirited canvass that has occurred for years in Mississippi will be witnesed, and for this thorough Deiuocratio organization was disoussed by the committee, and effective means adopted to accomplish the same. He Favors American Shipping. There is a good roaxon to expect that before this administration has been in power very long it will have begun a movement for the restoration of American shipping to the proud position it once held. The Republican party is in hearty hympathv with the idea, and with a Kepublican President and a Kepublican Congress, gome tangible art satisfactory results "ritay be expeeted. When President Harrison was at Bath, Maine, a few days ago, ho expressed his sentiments on this subject very clearly. In his brief speech at the' once famous ship-building town, he said : "In every way that I can, whether ai a citizen or as. a public officer, I Khali endeavor to promote the rebuilding of our Ameiioau inev-

ehant marine, and the restoration of that great carrying trade whioh wo once possessed on every sea. " These are hopeful words, and the country will expect to find some practical recommendations along the same line in President Harrison's Hrrt message to Confess. Des Moines Register, The Ohio Democrats. It is refreshing to find a Democratic State convention which approves and has co'irage to declare its approval of the platform framed at St. Louis, upon whirh ijrover Cleveland was renominated to the Presidency. All the State con ven nious of Republicans begin with a reaffirmation of devotion to the Chicago p iotform. The Democrats of the Sta les generally are content to let that eret d (if Cobden, Calhoun, and Cleveland, which the St. Louis convention maile publio, pass into oblivion, Ohio, however, nails the free-trarXe flag to Mr. Jumes Campbell's hat, and sends biw forth to fish for votes, and finally to console himself as best he may for the sm illness of his catch. Sir. 'Campbell would have lone better had he been nominated without a platform, for it Is generally believed that lie retains enough of the political philoscphy and sagacity whioh he acquired while training with the Republics us to be aware of the inherent fallacy and absolute unpopulari ty of the freis-tnide dogma. In his epeech of acceptance he never said "tariff" once. It is to be hoped that his less judicious friends will force him to talk against "thi robber tariff, " and will increase their o wn vociferousness agaiusHt, for the more this thing ia talked of and inquired into the larger are the Republics a majorities. The Ohio Democrats

cotu a not dodge the trust question, and eiore resolved that. No. regard trusts, in whatever form OTOyafced, as the legitimate result of our S?86"4 riff system, and we demM 'lite rePeal ' "-U fc&riff taxes that ona ;ijia to extort from the people exo-biiuarices for the products they control. "sk, V'hinh rSf like a humorous J graph when it is remember what Democrat xeptmiffsnthe Senate of ifte Un'iHhat that Democrat's., . to the great coal oil trugrL-. . . connection betwesn tariMMsa trusts is original to the Esl5tti0 mind, the fact being eoal oil trust is in an tinproarticle; that the proieoted Angio-.Amencan salt trust was devised by a fp;e-trade Democrat who onoe aspired to be Governor of Michigan, and that nothing but the fact of the tariff prevented that international trust from becoming a serious fact; and also that the cnlj- other great trust, that of the sugar trade, dreads nothing so much as that de velopment of competition with beet-sugar products which a continuance c f tlie tariff is certain to bilng about. V:Hiirclly less humorous than its tariff and 3iiss utterances & this very rewarl.able sentence: "We denounce th.! ltfliinhlican party for its violations'j of pledges in heualf of civil i;reereform.

The hitmor of the party that would repeal the ijivii service act upbraiding the part.-1 hot favors it for occasional acts j of negligence is very diverting. Chi- i cage inter Ocean. Vkf Hot Surrender Then 'Sow! Senutor Wade Hampton of South Carolina, is quoted in a recent interview a i wishing that the negros would leave the South. He professes to believe t hat a general exodus would be a bless it g for 'the South, and he says : "We would gladly see the the colored people move elsewhere and we would be willing to suffer any reduction of representation that might result from their t eparture. It would deprive us of nut h of our labor and make it a little harder for the present generation, but it would be the salvation of the future. I do not wish any harm to the negnxis, but I would gladly sacrifice whatever votes we get m the Electoral College or in Congress by reason of thea. if they would 'go off by themselves or settle in New England. I would gladly vote to appropriate $50,000,(00 for the purohase of Cuba or some cither place for them to settle in." 11 e Senator is a narrow observer of affaire if he thinks the South could spans without injury the ohief element upon iff hose labor it depends. But the generous proposition to surrender the representation which the colored population gives to the South would seem more' reasonable if tho South would give it up now since its practical disfranchisement of the negro voters gives it no just claim to it. It k' well known that iu half a douea Southern States the negro is allowed no more participation in political affairs than the mule he drives. And yet on the theory that he is a voter aud enjoys the rights of citizenship, the South claims and receives scores of Congressmen and scores of votes in the Electoral College to which it is not entitle I So far as enjoying political right is concerned, the negro would have as much to say about American polittja if he were iu Cuba as he does have 'in Alabama or Mississippi. Why shoull not the South, then, give up the votos in Congress aud in the Electoral College whioh it is illegally holdin!; by its treatment of the negro There is a question which Senator Hampton, as an honest niau,- will have some, difficulty iu answering. Iowa Stato ltegister. Tub latest political riot in Mississippi was purely Democratic It occurred iu Warren County, the issue beiiiji' the election of a sheriff.

Governor Lowry has manifVmtf 1 nomtnandable i think and zeal in brin ging Sullivan and Kilrain to jus tice tor violating the laws and sacred honor of tho sovereign State of Mississippi, but we do not yet observe that he had taken any steps toward bringing these rioters to justice, although theii1 cusseduess occurred almost within the boundaries of the State capital, Ts his vindir.tivoness against the two print fighters duo to their not being "well conneeted and promiueut men?
