f BAT DOES IT MEA* The Meaning of Insurance is to In demnify for Something That is Lost. Are You Sure Your Company Can Do This? Is It not as essential to know that the company promising this Indemnity Is as sound and solvent as a person signing a note or other obligation? A fire not only destroys your property, but at tho same time throws you out of your home or your business. We never have lost a company by failure, In a business of twenty years’ experience.

Visible Signs of Improvement Shown Particu larly in the South and West. Xew York. Sept. 30.—Bmdstreets, to morrow. will say: General trade through out the United States shows further im provement in this, the second week of September, more particularly in manu facturing and commercial lines at the East and South. From the central Western and some Western states, notably Iowa, 'here are advices that purchases of seasou able goods have been checked, this week, because of the htgli temperature through out the region specified. In the south Atlantic, Gulf and South western states and on the Pacific coast, general trade has been increasing in volume, with improving mercantile col lections as a rule, and goods selling with less effort in many instances. in tnc support; or toofavorable influenc ing conditions arc this week’s heavily in creased total bank clearings, the largest week s aggregate of wheat exports within three months, the heaviest week’s ship ments of Indian corn in 17 months, the maintenance of full proportions of an ex traordinarily heavy demand for iron and steel, the significant hardening of a leading money market, accompanied by reports of increasing mercantile discounts. Bank clearings from 71 cities, tele graphed to Brad6t,reets, this week, have jumped above the ¥1,000,000,000 mark, to $1,082,000,000. This is a gain of 10 per cent over last week, 20 per cent, mure than the second week of September. 1394, nearly 38 percent, laiye.- than the like week after the panic in 1803, only 2.5 per cent, less than the same week in 1802, and onlv 0 per cent, less than 1801, when trade was of very heavy volume. Some of the heaviest increases in clear ings. this week, compared with the year go,are those at Atlanta,38 per cent Mil waukee, 30; New York, 38; New Orleans, 20; Boston, Cleveland and I’ittsburg,each 24; St.Louis, 8; Chicago, 5 per cent. Price tendencies this week are more favorable from the point of view of the holder, advances having been recorded in wheat, corn and oats, after a prolonged reaction, wheat, flour, raw and refined sugar, coffee, brown and bleached cotton goods, print cloths, in sole leather and turpentine. Quotations havo held steady through the week for cotton, wool, lumber, bogs and lard, decreases among prices for lead ing staples noted for cattle, sheep, pork and rosin. Special inquiry by Bradstreets into the prices for more than 100 staple products, show in the second ouarter of the current calendar year,that there were advances in quotations for 50, no change for 17, and lower prices reached by only 28. Food products constitute one-third of the entire list, ha'f of which lower, July l, thau April 1 of this year. There was a division among chemicals and building materials, while many food products, al most all textiles, metals, chemicals, 'rather, oils, several special articles, showed sharp advances. Wheat exports,both coasts of the United states and Canada, aggregate 2,538,000 bushels,this week.(Hour included as wheat) a gain of one-third over last we k, in con trast. with 3,537,000,a year ago, 4,727,000, 'wo years ago, and 3.711,000 in the like week of 1892. Among the special trade features of the week are the Increased demand for finished orms of iron and steel, following the cheek in demand for crude; increased ictivlty among manufacturers of clothing end cheaper grades of jewelry, the enlarged demand for dry goods, hardware, clothing and shoes at the West,particularly Chicago and St. Bonis. it. should do noted that there is a pros pect that whiskey production will bo cur tailed. The demand for shoes anion? manufacturers is slower in starting up than was expected The season fur light weight domestic woolens has been only from a third to a half average, owing to the low prices asked for European products. Agents are asking 10 per cent advance on spring samples of imported plain woolens, anil 25 per cent, advance for mohairs. Advices from Des Moines are that trade is disappointingly dull, collections poor, money tight, and farmers holding their irops. From Omaha the reports are much more favorable Savannah, Jacksonville and Firming ham at the South, report visible improve ment in general trade, and Is expected at Atlanta and Chattanooga On the Pacific coast, Palonse wheat was hurt by the rain, but hops not as much as expected.

Sept 2d.—Tin board of health is investigating the cause of a prevalence of typhoid fever. Three children of Arthur N. Deerlng, who are sick with it, arc be lieved to have contracted the disease by drinking from a well near vhich a sink drain extends. Three other .ages of typhoid fever in families supplied with milk from Mr. Deering’sfarm.are thought to be due to the cleansing of the milk re ceptacles wit!: water from a contaminated well, but the theory is not generally credited.

Sept. 20.—The weather for several days lias been unprecedented for the month of September, the combined high temperature and humidiy of the atmosphere causing great sulToting and many prostrations.

An ineresting legal situation has developed through the operations of the Connecticut Law and Order League,and it is believed that scores of liquor eases now pending in the courts will lie thereby affected. Prior to August 1, the law prescribed a penalty of #50 and 30 days in jail for the second conviction for an illegal sale of liquor. I'nder this law scores of raids wore made during Juno and July among them several cases in Putnam. The new law, which went into effect, August 1. provides a penalty of $20(1 fine and six months in jail for the second con viction. It is held by the counsel for the Putnam violators that the law under which they were arrested is dead, and that the new law cannot bo held to apply to them as It increases tho penalty over that in force when they were arrested, au increase of penalty under the circumstances being held to be ex post facto therefore null and void. There are several decisions which sup port his point. The practical effect of this opinion,If sustained,will be lo nullify all tho prosecutions made by the Connect! cut Law and Order League which were pending when the new law went into effect.

It cannot be formally acted upon, because it was not made in the proper form, in not having been sent through the secretary of the club to whicli Mr. Hose belongs, to the secre tary of the New York Yacht Club Mr. Rose Means Business.

The gentleman referred to Is possibly Charles Rose The Field will say: "A wealthy gentleman has informed us that he Is pre pared to build a cutter to challenge for the America's cup in 1890, provided the com mittee will consent to have the matches sailed away from New York,so that it will be impossible for excursion steamers to interfere. The London Times prints a letter from Admiral Penrose Fitzgerald on the dis pute relative to the America's cup. In it the admiral says: “When the whole af fair is viewed from the international as pect there is little doubt ih it the judge ment of history will lie against England.

Boston, Sept. 20—The Massachusetts Association opposed to the extension of suffrage to women.has sent out this mani festo relating to the vote which is to be taken tn November upon the question of granting municipal suffrage to women: To the Peo'ple of Massachusetts: The Wellman bill, enacted by the last Legislature, gives an opportunity to all men and all women, qualified to vote for mem tiers of school committees, to express In November, their opinion on tho ques tion. is it expedient that municipal sun rape be granted to women?” This bill is not rightly called a referen dum,for it proposes no change in our laws, but provides merely for an expression of opinion-by vote. Its practical result will be its influence en future legislatures. We urge the duty upon all women to in terest themselves in this question and aid in the formation of a right public opinion thereupon; and we call upon all men voters to justify the present suffrage sys tem by an overwhelming “No” at the polls in November. We do not urge the women opposed to tin-further extension of suffrage to vote. Weaffirm that the burden of proof rests with the! suffragists. We declare that the silence of our sex at the polls will not mean consent, but opposi tion or indifference. We find tangible proof that the women ot tills state do not desire the ballot in their general indifference to schoul suffrage,which failed to arouse their zeal and interest during the mauy years of its existence, while some time before such suffrage was established, the valu able services ot women on the school boards wire secured by the votes of men. Wo be lieve the extension to the women ef muni cipal suffrage would be a danger to the state for which no compensating advan tages are shown. Wo believe that the present division of labor and responsibility between the sexes to lie founded on reason and on the laws of nature,and while freely admitting that a higher standard of patriotic and civic duty is nevded by both men and women,we affirm our belief that It must be brought about by an advance in civilization and education, and that this advance would lie impeded rather than helped,by the complications resulting from municipal sulfiage for women.

WILL NOT STRIKE. Fall River Weavers So Decide by Overwhelming Vote. Satisfied That They Had to Gain and Nothing to Win. Business IW.cn P'eased as Agitation Has Simply Paralyzed All Trade. Full River, Mass,, Sept, x'O.— After weeks of wordy agitation, the Weavers" l'nion voted almost unanimously, to night, not to strike for an advance In wages. The meeting was In Musie hall, which was much overcrowded. There was a great amount of noise from time to time, but the sentiment was so overwhelmingly against a strike that there was no great discussion, and the meeting did not last more than 115 minutes. The officers wero prepared to issue Pallets to everyone pri*s ent if It was decided that a ballot was necessary, but the temper of the assembly was so clearly manifested on every possi ble occasion, that the idea of taking a bal lot was dropped. John P. Downey, one of the prominent members, made an address in wldeh lie counselled his fellow weavers not to enter into another struggle with the manufac turers at this time. Seeretan Whitehead made the principal address of the evening. Ho presented figures showing that since lNSCi, the Fall River operatives have lost $5,000,000 In one form or another. Q Among the causes wero the big strike of last jear, costing (g*.000,000 in wage* alone, two severe reductions of wages, amounting to about 86 per eent. cf the total wage ]iaiil, and the stoppages of several mills from various causes, such as depression, improvements, repairs, and so on. Secretary Whitehead asked If in tho face of these great losses the weavers pres ent would be willing to enter Into another strike tbai would moan not only loss of money,but a loss of needed food and cloth ing All of the secretary’s talk was against striking, and lie gave the hearers to clearly understand that tho sympathy of the business men could not lie witli them in another fight at this time. A veto was called for many times, and it was apparent when the secretary con oludtd that those wishing to strike would have little encouragmeut. A viva voco vote was taken with the result that less than a du/i it persons In the crowded hall declared themselves in favor of losing work. After ttm vote was given out, Secretary Matthew Hart of the Weavers' Union of New Hertford, addressed tile meeting anti explained why he Would not. be reoelved with weavers who are to confer with the New Hertford manufacturers. The drift of his remarks was that, bo talked too st might and told too many truths that, the mill men did not want to hear. News from the meeting was anxiously awaited in tin' city streets. Several Ulanu factnrers were about town waiting for the announcement of the result,but they worn neither very much elated uor affected as far as talk or appearances Indicated. There is a deep undercurrent of feeling in the city against the management of the Weavers' Uuion for allowing the agitation to reach flic stage that it did, tonight. It has been long drawn out and has paralyzed business here for the past two weekg. It has hampered the progress of the oloth market a great deal by making contracts unuertal n. The general business public is well pleased that the olfair has onded peace fully. __ A few day ago Mrs. Peary left this city, where Bite had, been visiting Mr. Poary’s mother, for St. John, at which place the steamer Kite, which went to Smith's sound after the explorer, is expected to arrive at any time.

Know Thyself. (From the Era, Bradford, Pa.) Too few people are acquainted with the rapid advance of medical science, and too many doctors are still plodding In the old paths. Once it comes to pats that people know themselves, that all physicians are •breast of the world's knowledge, much of our suffering will come to an end. Medical scientists are rot delving Into the depths of knowledge for the mere benefit of brother physicians, but for the benefit of the world. They place in the hands of the well man a means of keeping well, Id the hands of the sick a means of recovery. To the parent they give the power of saving the child. Science Is working for you—w'jl yon accept the proffered help? Mrs, George Howenrl, an estimable lady who resides at No. 27d blast Main Street, has cause to feel grateful toward the foionoe of medicine. One day recently, a reporter, learning that Mrs. Rowend had lieen greatly lx-ne flted by the use of a new medicine, inter viewed her. She stated that she had lieen Htiffcring with a female trouble for many years. She had lieen doctored for the ail ment for a long time—In fact, nearly all her life,—and had never received anything more than temporary relief. Uuring the last three years her condition grew worse and was aggravated by an affection of the heart. Her health was so poor that she found It almost impossible to perform her bonsehold duties. “I never believed In propriotary medi cines,'' said Mrs. Rowend, “but one day last fall I read an article in a newspaper which told of the cures effected by Ur. ’Williams' Pink Pills, and I decided to try the medicine. Before I had taken the con tents of one to* I began to feel better. Ths depressing weakness which had both ered uie for so many years began to dis appear, and tlie action of the heart at once became stronger end more regular. I too* nine Ijiixck HI HIM now fouling better tb.n I bnvo for m vcntl yeiirs, ami I have unhouncled faith In the medicine." Mrs. Rirwenil l« steadily gaining in health and strength an;l gives ail the credit for her restoration to health to Ur. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.

Brockton Enterprise: The many friends of Charlie King, the popular young base hall player, will be pleased to learn that the chances c.f his complete recovery are very favorable. His two knee caps were fractured at Pawtucket some months ago, and ft was feared that bis limbs would in the future be tome stiffened, If he ever g t so a-' to be able to walk at all. Since his injury he lias been tinder the care of an eminent surgeon, and the success which crowned the doctor's operations In this in stance are a little short of miraculous. About a week ago one of the knees caused Charlie considerable pain, and it was deemed best to have him removed to a nrlvate hospital at Bjst.on, where It was found that the pain was caused by the wire that had been used to hold the cap together. This was removed which gave the sufferer immediate relief, and now hi is able to bend the kn"es quite a little He v.-as brought home Tuesday, and has lots of encouragement from the Boston surgeons, wlio slate that the bones are all knit in good shape Charlie expects to get around a little In a few days now with the assistance of crutches.

It Enables a Sink Soldier to Beat a Well Man In a Twenty-five Mile Tramp. American surgeons ami army officers have for some time been experimenting with the kola nut with a view of introduc ing it into the commissary department of the army, to bo used in lieu of other food in forced marches where there is little or nothing for the soldiers to oat. Dr. Charles E. Woodruff and Lieutenant Harris of the United States army, stationed at Fort Sheridan, have made experiments which have shown that in forced marches the kola nut gives far better satisfaction for nutritious purposes than ordinary food, llotli Dr. Woodruff and Lieutenant Har ris found that they were loss fatigued from the long walks they took when they ato nothing but the kola than when they ato full rations of ordinary food. An experiment with the kola nut was made in tins city, and the result was iden tical with that of the Fort Sheridan offi cers. A number of the army officers of Fort Snelling were anxious to see the re sult of an experiment, and so the test was urrauged. Corporal II. P. Wyatt and Pri vate M. C. Olson, both of Company F, started from tiic Kvan hotel at 8:40 to walk to the West hotel at Minneapolis and return to the Ryan at once. Private Olson was not allowed to eat breakfast, but ho was given five little reddish nuts about t^e size and shape of a good sized hickory nut, which lie was told to eat slowly on the way. Further than this, he was not allowed to eat any food while making the trip. Corporal Wyatt was allowed to eat a good, hearty breakfast, and told lio could oat and drink what he wished on the way. Ho was requested to regulate his diet ac cording to the soldier’s bill of fare when the larder in the commissary's tent is well stocked. At 3:50 the two men arrived at the Rv au hotel from their journey to Minneapo lis. In giving their accounts of the trip, which comprised a walk of about 25 miles in the hot sun, they plainly showed that the kola nut had proved tiic more satisfac tory diet. Corporal Wyatt bad eaten and di unk freely as he felt inclined to during the day, and lie came in almost overcome by hi at and thoroughly tired and stiff from tli r long walk. Private Olsou, who but recently arose from a bed of sickness and had not fully regained his strength, was much the fresher of the two, and had suf fered little from heat. He said that ho ate two of the nuts on tho way to Minneapo lis and two on tho way back, and that ho sat and rested while his companion ate and drank. He said that he nover felt bet ter than when lie returned from the long tramp anil that lie thought that the walk had done him good. He had not felt tho need of more food.—Minneapolis Tribune. To Cut Stick. To “cut stick,” a euphemism for run ning awav, is an expression found not only in English, but also in French, Ger man. Italian and Spanish. It is supposed to refer to the practice among travelers of cutting I stall from u hedge or tree before beginning a journey. Who does not know women and young girls who are continually in tears? pWho always see the dark side Who have frequent fits of melancholy with out any apparent cause? But there is a cause. It is to l>e found by the in telligent physician in some derangement of the complicated and delicate feminine organs of generation. The woman who half understands herself, feels that she cannot always be complaining; she can not always have the doctor in the house. The young girl suffers, bodily and men tally, in silence. The trouble usually comes so gradually it is attributed to some outside cause. There is undue weariness, unexpected pain, unreason able tears stnd fits of temper. All these symptoms are simply protests of the silent, long-suffering nerves. The trouble shows in dark circles below the eyes, a downward curve of the mouth, a sallow, brownish-yellow neck. Unregarded, the trouble grows. A few years of tortured invalidism, probably insanity, before merciful death comes. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the fruit of years of study. It is the product of an investigating mind united with a generous nature. When an intelligent person gives years of study to a subject there must be some good result. The ‘Favorite Prescription” is a compound of extracts of herbs that makes a strengthening, soothing medicine. It acts directly upon the distinctly feminine organs. It stops drains from lining membranes by healing diseased parts, thereby curing also the inflammation that is always present. I was ia a critical condition. Often I was in despair. I experienced a great improvement by takirg one tiottlc of Or. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription. I have taken six bottles, and I am sure that it will not only cure ulceration but all diseases of females.” Yours truly’, (Mrs.) Neapolis, Virginia, MAIDENHOOD The Young Girl’s Life Like a Flowing Brook. Its Course Obstructed by Many Obstacles. Some Tim-ly Suggestions Regarding a Ser ious Subject. "Brcoks make rivers, rivers run to seae,’’ sings the poet Drydcu in his wor ship of Aesculapius, the first known phy sician. The poet little thought as he penned his verse in praise of the ancient practitioner, how aptly his beautiful line would apply to the life of a woman. The chattering hrook as it llows to merge itself in the larger stream represents the careless, unthinking young girl. The wild and turbulent stream, sometimes Hewing smoothly, then dashing over rocks and down into unbroken depths, at last becoming a mighty river, hearing ships upon Its bosom, is the woman with her broadening and deepening possi bilities. But how many girls "Standing with reluctant feet Where the brook ami river meet Womanhood and childhood fleet,” arc at tills time of their lives the objects of great solicitude to their parents. The young girl is sad, docs not like company, has palpitation of the heart after slight exertion, dyspepsia, constipation, pains in the head and limbs and along the spine, and her face is pale with a greenish tinge. She is the victim of green sickness. This Is a ease in which the nervous system is impaired and tlie blood is impoverished. A good tonic Is needed to briDg her back to health and strength,and parents should ha eireiul to choose the heat remedy. Here is wtiat Mrs. Homer Lard of 215 Allen St.. Springfield. Mass selected for her 17 year old daughter Mary, with an account of its marvelous results. Mrs. Lard says: "About two yeats ago my daughter became so nervous that I had to t ike her out of school. Her con dition caused grave apprehension. She lost In ilesh was possessed with a nervous thirst and clutched everything on which she laid her hands, with the grip of a per son in tho thioes of death. Worse than all, she was nut only unable to sleep her self, but her restlessness would keep the other metnbi rs of our family awake. She grew worse rapidly and wo finally went to a ph> slcim, but the remedies he pre scribed did her no good; on the contrary, Mary thought they made her worse. “The old saying of a'drowning man clutching at a straw’ came to our minds, and remembering that I had read of some wonderfjl cures made by I)r. Greene's Norvura blood and nerve remedy, I de cided to try it. 1 must say that the effect was magical, and results were apparent after tho first bottle bad been partly used. My daughter slept tlmt night for tho first time in months, and you can believe that to us It was like a ray of sunshine from a cloudy sky. Her condition improved steadily and she was able to resume her studies. "Piano practice formerly had a pecu liarly bad effect upon her, but she now practices regularly without bocoming ner i ais. Two years ago we feared that Mary iiad reached her growth, but since taking l)r. Greene’s Nervura her nervousness has been so greatly dispelled that she has grown considerably and regained the ilesh she had lost.” It is wonderful what benefit this young girl derived in so short a time from Dr. Greene's Nervura, the great blood and m rvo remedy. If you have a daughter who is suffering in such a manner, cun you doubt that this grand medicine is just what she needs? You can make no mistake in giving lior this great blood and nerve remedy, for it is tho discovery of a noted and experienced physician, lJr. Greene, of 34 Temple Place, Boston, Jla'S. He not, only positively promises a good effect from the medicine, but allows all wlio wish to consult him free of charge, either personally or by letter, so that in using his remedy you make him your jibysieian and receive the benefit of his gnat skill. Tlie 'lrulty of Savins Money. “Talking about saving money,” said a veteran millionaire, “It is 1U0 times hard er now to keep cash in your pockets than it was when 1 was a young fellow and didn’t spend a cent. I tell you it’s hard for them to save in these times. Every young man wants u bicycle, and it’s mighty hard to stand on the street and see your friends spinning by on wheels and not invest yourself. Again, it’s a great priva tion for a young fellow not to be well dressed. The distinction between good clothes and poor is so sharp nowadays that it is galling to he conspicuous by cheap at tire. Again, there are the theater, the ex cursion boat the races and a score of other inducements to spend money which hardly existed in my day, and I’m glad they didn’t, for if they had I honestly think I would have been a poor man now.”—iiuf tilo Enquirer.

Words Adapted From Foreign Umeuagcs or Coined Ontright-Eventaally a New Dictionary May Be Necessary For the Convenience of Newcomer*. Every vcar and every month more> and lu^nThStns/n.si'wy acquainted in with an entirely novel group consequence n _*. a r first of ideas and modes of expression. At iim Words and phrases are vory con fusing to the English mind. Many of them nd.vd a‘e literally taken from foreign languages—namely, those of the various Australian aboriginal tribes or “back fcl tows aTthev are calk'd. Others are old fndlsh slang, forgotten now in this eoun trv^and others new English slang import ed direct from America. There is some excuse1 therefore, for the temporary con fusion’of the newly arrived stranger, or “new chum,” when he first hears this odd jargon mingled with tho queen s Enghsh There are certain words which tun Englishmen generally understand wort s which constantly recur, but winch, as it is unsafe to tako anything for granted, Kh*Ul be explained and defined at the out set. Such a word is “bush.” This means uncleared ground, and especially the enor mous areas covered witli open forests of eucalyptus, or “gum,” as it is locally termed. A “bushman" is not a black fellow in tho sense In which the Dutch used the word at tho Cape, but means a ,nan accustomed to traverse mo able to look after himself therein. To ho “bushed" is to ho lost in the bush, a fato usually reserved for those who are not, bushmen and very commonly ending in death. It may ho said that hush is a gen eral word, including what the government statistician of New South AY ales terms “open, brush and scrub forests.” The “brush” forests are found ehiolly along the coasts and consist largely of fern trees, palms, cabbage trees, Morcton Bay figs, etc. The “scrub” forests are mostly stunt ed pines, acacia and gum. Having dis posed of these thrco important words, we may pass on to say that a “squatter is a large landowner, and his holding is called a “station.” The “squatocracy” corresponds to our squirearchy. A station far removed from centers of civilization is called a “black block;” a small farmer is a “cockatoo” or a “stringy barger;” a young man working on a station for the sake of learning how to farm is called a “jaekeroo;” a “select or” is a man who, under certain condi tions, is allowed to occupy a small portion of the squatter's holding and farm it un til he is bought out by the squatter. Such selectors used formerly to bo able to fix on the most valuable parts of the holding. They were then said to have “picked the eyes out of it,” and lienee, from a connec tion of this idea with a peacock’s tail, to have “peacocked” it. This is still done in some parts of Australia. Naturally holders of stations often huvo their cattle stolen, especially by these selectors. Stealing stock from a station is called “duffing. To prevent this it is custom ary to brand stock. At certain times, however, there are likely to be great num bers of unbranded young stock running wild. These are called “clearskins,” and, more rarely, “cloanskins.” A “crawler” is a sheep left behind on the road. To “bail” cattle, as is well known, is to se cure them by means of a bail; hence to “bail up” is to drive into a corner, and, more generally, to render helpless. Thq cry of “bail up” signifies “hold yourarms above your head and keep them there till further orders or I’ll shoot you." The idea of the position is that the person bail ed up shall bo rendered helpless and not bo able to reach his revolver. So much then for stations and stock. Wo may now pass on to the station hands. Not many, as a rule, are permanently en gaged on ono place. A man of all work, especially tit shearing time, is called a “rouso about.” The ordinary Australian laborer who travels from station to sta tion, carrying his kit or “swag” on his back, is called a “swagman,” or “swag ger.” While on the tramp through the bush with this object in view, he is said to be “on the wallaby” (wallaby being a small form of kangaroo common in the bush), or to bo "carrying bluoy,” and, general speaking, to “hump one’s swag” is to make a start, to set out, or continue on a tramp or journey, etc. The man who appears at stations at sunset, ostensi bly in search of work, but really desirous only of a night’s lodging and some provi sions, goes hythennmeof a “sundowner.” Such a man, like all thoso who are not fit to bo accommodated in the squatter's house ns guests, is sent to sleep in an out house built for the purposeand commonly called tho “barracks.” Ileuco a “bar racks” lias come to mean a rough, ora rowdy of any sort. This word is more common in New Zealand than in Austra lia, though tho slang of both countries is practically the same. The swagman and the sundowner in variably carry a “pannikin” and a “hilly.” The former is an open pot., and tho latter is usually a tin pot with a lid holding a quart. Perhaps it would ho more correct to say that it is usually without a lid, for the lid is soon lost. In this tho swagman makes his everlasting drink—tea. Beer and spirits are not very easy to he got in many parts of tho bush. But ten can bo easily carried, and every one drinks it in Australia to excess. Billy tea is rather good. You boil water in the hilly over I your little Are iu the hush, then throw in a handful of tea and about half a handful I of sugar, leave to boil for a few seconds, take it off and drink ns soon as it is cool enough. Needless to say, there is no milk, in it. The swngman’s chief food is “damp er”—that is bread made by himself with out yeast and baked on a hot stono in tho bush. To make damper well is a high art, and there is not space here to explain how to do it. When there is not time to make damper ho makes “beggars on tho coals” or something which ho calls by a name very similar. “Johnnycake” is thin damper fried in a pan.—London Standard.

The Portland ArgUB of yesterday says: HI Henry anil his merry minstrels were greeted with an audience that tilled Portland Theatre, last evening. The company well deserves the enthusiastic repoeption they received. There was not a dull or uninteresting act from the time the curtain arose on the magnificently draped stage until it fell upon the beauti ful bronze statues. The orchestra was one of the finest ever heard here with a minstrel company. The features were all good and were repeatedly encored. From HI Henry down to Master Wil limns, the hoy soprano, all were clever, notably Arthur Hemming, Laroy Millard, Crawford Brothers, Matt Damond.Hi Tom Ward, Kexford Brothers, Larry McKvo.v, Van Auda and Harry Yeager.” ••Old Rube Tanker.” Mr. John J.

Sept. 2B. HORSliS TO BE HIGHER. A Local Dealer Predicts an Advance An other Season. “I am convinced that horsos will bring much higher prices, another season,” re marked a local dealer to a Journal man. yesterday. What makes you think so?” “My observation of the Boston market Formerly when I went there, only a comparatively few mares were offe-red for sale. Now the mares largely outnumlier the horses there. Out of the last 11 that 1 bought. In wore mares.” 'What do you suppose is the reason for that?” “Simple enough. The farmers are go ing out of the horse breeding business. The price of horses has been ruinously low during the past two or three years, and as •i result breeders have been raiding fewer and fewer colts, and have put their marc* upon the market. As a result horses are bound to be scarce during the next two or three years. The reaction Is about due, and a man who gets a decent horse after Ibis season will have to pay a good round price for him. SUPERIOR COURT. September Term. Judge Oliver G. Hall. Presid mg. Sheriff.

WHY LIFE IS SEEN THROUGH BLUE GLASSES BY SO MANY. The Stomach I* Monarch of the Body. The Importance of Fitness ami Regu larity of Diet—In Most Cases the Trouble Begins While the Child Is In Its Cradle. A dyspeptic is a misery to himself and a torment to his friends. Life is seen through blue glasses and nothing on earth is pleas ing. There never was a cynic, a pessimist or a premeditated revolutionist who had unimpaired digestion and a healthy stom ach. One dyspeptic in the house will sour the whole family. Nine-tenths of the human race are born with a tendency to stomach troubles, and the mothers finish up the business by per mitting their children’s Internal organs to become the dumping ground of all the trash in the shape of sweets and acids and stale fruit that pennies will purchase at the nearest corner grocery. It begins before that even. The baby in the cradle has to take its dose of ignorant mothering. It cries; possibly a pin, a baud too tight, a mil in its elotbingthat presses its tender flesh is irritating it. More than likely “a little indigestion” from its last overgorge of the bad breast milk lias giv en it the colic. The worried mother, think ing that “feeding” is the best medicine for a crying baby, and knowing that with its month full it can't cry, immediately proceeds to nurse it. ine onoy mis itself up to the chin, kick ing and squirming, and often trying to get away from the breast, but is pressed back. In utter exhaustion it falls asleep, to awaken in about ten minutes with a shriek that would make a Cheyenne blush. For two straight hours that poor little victim of a mother's ignorance or indo lence will writhe in the agony of colic, its tender stomach tormented with deluges of paregoric, peppermint, catnip tea and a lot of other messes, which fill it up till the tiny sufferer calls nature to aid and throws all the horrible stuff tip, and then it falls asleep, perspiring, white and limp. For hours its little frame will be sore and aching, and it will moan if stirred. Yet in less than 24 hours it will have to go through the same experience. Is it much wonder that the weanling is fretful and dubbed a cross baby? Just fill an adult up on sweets and ices, bread and meat and pastry. Let his stom ach get to grumbling; then tako him to a big dinner and fill him up again. You can't safely remain in the same house with him till he gets over ids ill temper, headache and indigestion. With tho constant irritation of soured, undigested food, tho child's stomach gets into the same diseased condition, and un less it lias a constitution of iron it devel ops into a whining, peevish, nervous youth and a dyspeptic adult. A perfectly healthy child ought to oat at regular intervals, say four times a day; have only plain food and sufficient to sat isfy hunger, but never be permitted to gorge itself on any dish of which it is particularly fond. The habit of “piecing” is almost criminal. Indeed, that a diseased stomach will turn a man into a criminal is a scientific fact. If acliild is not strong, its digestion will bo naturally weak, and it should have its food carefully prepared and eat a little oftener, because it does 1 not eat so in licit at a time, and the human 1 body has to have fuel to keep it running properly. If you say “diet” to a man who calls in a doctor, he flies into it passion and de clares that lie will eat what lie wants ami when lie wants it, and that it does him no harm. Probably if lie had heeded the warnings of nature and been moderately careful of ids diet the doctor would never have been called. Your own good sense j will tell you that if you throw water on j the brightest fire it will smother it. ami long enough continued will leave a black ened mass of ruins. Hence if you eat tilings that you know have always dis agreed with you you can’t help knowing also that you will put out the fires of healthy combustion in your body and that if you keep up the indiscretion you will at last wreck your health completely. Women are the most careless, imlis eriniinating eaters in the world. I heard a woman say at a restaurant table n,cent ly, where she was lunching with friend-', that pie did not agree with her and that milk always soured on her stomach, but that they were “so filling,” and when she was in a hurry with her shopping she al ways took pie and milk to get through quickly, and then finished off with some chocolates to “munch” on. I looki'il at her pinto, and she had tv.o kinds of j;ic and a glass of half croam and half milk. When sho got lip to loavo I saw that sho was nflliotod, ns indiscriminating caters generally nro, with a largo abdomen. Her habits of oatillg. as displayed in her luncheon, very largely accounted for it. Sho ate things that ‘'tilled her up,” to put it coarsely, and caused flatulence, dis tending the stomach with gases. Drink ing great quantities of liquid, such ns ton and coffee, or a great deal of milk or \va ter, will distend the stomach in the same manner and cause the uncomfortable “full” feeling of which so many women complain. Bolting one’s food is another way of superinducing fatty folds about tho abdo men. Nearly everybody eats tot) fast, and a failure to properly masticate one’s food is sure to bring on a disagreeable hour, while the overworked stomach is gruin blingly performing its labor. The woman who wants to be considered bright and handsome and charming lias got to pay strict attention to her diet, if she ever suffers with attacks of indiges tion, because one attack brings a second in its train, and soon she is a confirmed dys peptic. A woman whose stomach is out of order gets jaundiced eyes as well. Site be comes critical and carping. Always being uncomfortable, she can't well be pleasant in manner. If there is a tack in one’s boot one is go ing to frown. If there is a “misery” in the stomach it will make itself felt in tin face and in tho voice. No man living likes a soured woman. That is a woman who sees things through blue glasses and i thinks that “nothing that is is good.” Tlie wit of a woman who is always com plaining loses its keenness. It degenerates into mere fault finding. Then, too, indigestion and dyspepsia are deadly foes of the complexion, and of green old age. Impaired digestion will make its presence known in a pimply and blotched face, dead lookingskin, dry, harsh feeling hair and dull eyes. Certainly human beings are capable of as high culture as animals, and siDco horses and cattle and dogs and sheep are fed and trained for the purpose df bringing out certain desirable qualities and over feeding or impure food is considered a ca lamity, why will not the same rules hold good for the human creature as well as for the animal?—Washington Star.

Dishonoring the Flag. f (Boston Journal.) The full story of President Cleveland’s shameful attempt to overthrow the young Hawaiian republic and reinstate a corrupt monarchy has never yet been told. Per haps It never will be, but a statement which Mr. W. K. Castle, the new Hawaiian minister, made to the Journal in the course of his Interview yesterday is an illuminating contribution to the history of that extraordinary episode. According to Mr. Castle's description, not content with formally demanding through Minister Willis that President Dole surrender his authority to Queen Liiiuokalan), the Cleveland administra tion actually caused a display of armed force to be made with a view to frighten ing the members of the provisional gov ernment. This is an amazing accusation, but Mr. Castle was an eye witness of the affair. His evidence is absolutely Indis putable. When Minister Willis arrived and sub mitted l he letter in which President C!ev and property were all imperiled. Oil their city lay a great man-of-war, tlie starry flag of their native country waving over it. They had been accus turned to look to that llag for protection and to a ship wbicli bore it as a friend. But Grover Cleveland’s mandate bad made this one their enemy. From the shore Mr. Castle and bis companions could see long Vines of sailors girt with cartridge belts and bristling with cut lasses and rifles,mustered on the Philadel phia’s decks. They could hear the notes of the bugle, the officers’ oomands. the preparations for landing But they, too, were Americans; they did not flinch. They did not know lhat that warlike demonstration was only a feint to over awe them. They were readv to defend themselves, if need lie. even though at tacked by their own fellow countrymen. The firm front of President Dole’s volun teers convinced Willis and his accom plices tliat intimidation was impossible. The spirit of Concord and Lexington livedin those Hawaiians of Yankee blood. The blustering array of marines and blue jackets was dismissed Grover Cleveland's attempt to re-establish a pagan dynasty on the ruins of the far-away Paeillo re public was a failure. But what a scene that was! On the one side merchants, teachers, planters, mis sionaries. sprung front our sturdy New England race, who had built up by years of toil a prosperous and peaceful New Kagland community in those western seas, on the other a motley crowd of jeal ous British adventurers, native beach combers and cheap rutliians and vaga bonds from every land beneath the sun. who hated the Yankees and their rigid laws and lcnged for a return cf the loose and vicious days of the old monarchy. And behind this rabble, encouraging its clamor and supporting its cause against President Dole and his fellow-Amerieaus, were the authority of the President of th United Stales ami the guns of the Ameri can llagshlp! No such spectacle had ever been witnessed on this broad planet h.. fore. It is to be devoutly hoped that the Stars and Strips will never again he stained by such an Ineffable dishonor.

New Storage Building and Brick Boiler House To Be Erected Once. The interest which always attaches in a community, to a large and flourishing in dustry, has been evidenced by the crowds of people who have visited the ruins of the Comfort building since the fire of Wednesday morning. The charred ruins, with their heaps of debris present a scene of aotivity. A large number of men and boys, being actively engaged in clearing away the blackened ruins, and carefully sifting out of the charred papers every thing that may be of use in the further progress of the business. Of course, by far the larger part of the valuable letters and correspondence that were in the burned building were irretrievably lost. The fierce heat of this conflagration is shown by the fact that although scarcely a breath of wind was stirring, partially burned envelopes and letters from the de stroyed building have since been discov ered on the hills to the eastward more than a nolle away. A gentleman who watched the fire from a window on th° opposite side of the river, says that these papers as they floated away in the light of the blazing building, like a stream of mammoth sparks, presented a weird and beautiful spectacle. The value of iron doors and window shutters on a brick building that adjoins a wooden one, was forcibly demonstrated by this fire. The north side of the brick Comfort building is provided with such doors and shutters, which are carefully closed every night. As a result the fierce blaze of the wooden building was unable to get any hold upon the brick structure, notwithstanding its nearness to it. The wooden cornice of the latter building was in faet the only available foothold tor the flames, and this was protected both by its elevation above the wooden building, and by tlio precaution of the firemen in keeping it thoroughly wet down. Not withstanding the powerful streams of water, that were directed against the north wall of the brick building, so com plete was tho protection afforded by its iron doors and shutters, and so tightly do they fit, that no damage whatever was done by them, and no water found its way into any of the rooms. A singular thing in connection with this lire was tho fact that although the composing room was located in tlie south east e rner of the woollen building its entire contents was saved. The firemen were requested to use the greatest possible care in directing streams of water upon this part of the building, and -o success ful Were they in doing so, that, notwith standing the fnot tliat type wb- scattered about tlie apartment in all shapes—in the forms, in the chases, and on the galleys, not a letter of it was pied. The partitions in this portion of (lie building are numerous, and sustained the upper floor ing so that none of tho debris of the roof came through upon the first lloor. The saving of the composing room of great advantage to the concern, as it enabled work upon the papers to proceed without interruption. A Journal man visited the Comfort building, yesterday, anil found every one bard at work. 11 Yts, We are running our full crew, to day,” said Mr. Gannett in response to the reporter’s inquiry, ‘‘and in fact wo bad mest of them at work, yesterday. A few of the girls had a day o!T while we were lilting up quarters and providing chairs and tables for them in the brick building. Everything was In readiness for them, yesterday noon; but there was scarcely time to notify them of the fact in -cason for them to work that afternoon. Their pay. however, has gone on just the same. From this out, all will be steadily em ployed. "Unn you u>rm lo That is a difficult thing to do, from tlio fact that, much of it "as upon things peculiar to our business, and upon which, in the nature of things, there could be no insurance. For instance,” pointing to a charred heap of turned papers, ‘‘there was a lot of something over a 150,000 letters we recently purchased, and of which we had made no use. We got them for the names which we pur posed to ustT in sending out our winter circulars. That lot of letters alone cost us *1800. There were probably from a 1 000,000 to 1,500.000 of such letters in this building. A portion of them will he dug out of tho debris but the work of arranging and classifying them, in their present condition wil be almost .nor than they are worth Indeed it, will take us a long time to fully r.allz. the extent of our loss. Many of these letters were used so constantly In cur business that we shall he continually in need of them for reference for months to come. I do not think #100,01X1 would more than make us whole.” oIt is remarkable that you should be able to keep right on with your work, under such circumstances o Yes wo were very fortunate in hai mg one cf which, in the base Z* mmm. r:“ -""■r.-vzsz room was also very fortunate for us in preventing delay in our work.

BUSSELL WESTON, Augusta, Me. seDt^odtf 7 no other time in the history of our busi ness, would we have beeD able to have sustained such a loss and gone on with our business. An agent of the Goss Press Company who visited me this morning, told me that it would be impossible, under existing conditions, to get a press suitable for our purposes In readiness for use inside of 90 days. Six months ago such a loss would have prostrated us, and thrown all our employes out of work. At the time of the fire, fortunately we had practically two plants.” ■‘Have you formed any plans for re building:'” “We have scarcely had time yet to de termine fully what we shall do, In the way of new buildings. Some things how ever, we shall be obliged to immediately do. We had Dot begun to send out our supply of winter circulars when the fire came. We were In fact, just making prepara tions for this work. Our crew is some what smaller, therefore, than It will be later, and we must take immediate steps to secure room. We shall build a small brick building to the north of our present building, to be used as a boiler house, and for other mechanical purposes. On the south at some little distance from our main building, we will eroct a woodeh building for storage purposes. This will enable us to use the basement of our present building exclusively as a press room, and all tho other floors for the ac commodation of the various departments of our business. In short, the additional room that will bo afforded by these two new buildings will give us four doors, In cluding tlie basement, 50x70 feet. We shall not have any spare room; but all will bo comfortably housed. In the spring it Is probable that steps will bo taken for the erection of another build ing. 1 am very grateful fur the many expres sions of sympathy and kindly feeling 1 have received since tho tiro. The next morning Messrs. Vickery Hill at once camo to mo and offered to place their presses and tpye at our disposal, and to assist us in every possible way. Fortu nately I was not obliged to avail myself of this generous offer but 1 deeply appre ciated it.” Iu foiling, the heavy press that was re covered from the burned building, struck and destroyed a nice new trimmer; that bad, but a short time before, been added to the plant at an expense of $400. The clock in the composing room was found to have stopped at 111.10. showing tlie intensity of the heat in the burning building at that hour. The press in the wooden building is practically a dead loss. The representative of a large press manufacturing firm who looked it over, yesterday, advised Mr. Gannett that it would not be worth while to attempt to do anything with it. Tho expense of putting it into condition again would go far toward the purchase of a new one, and no firm would guarantee to put it into shape to again do lirst class work. It will doubtless be sold as junk, and a new press purchased to take its place. Snell a press will cost between $20,000 and $28,000. The dynamo Is also a total loss. Superintendent Hamblin of the Kennebec Light and Heat Company says that it would cost more to rewind it and put it Into shape than it is worth. While the Journal man was Inspecting the ruins, a crew of men was engaged in rescuing the safe from the debris. This was filled with subscription books. When it was opened these books were all found to be in a perfect state of preservation. The escape was a narrow one, as the Lot fire bad eaten a small hole through one of the sides. Its escape in its present good form is due to a stream of water being kept upon it during the hottest of the tire. In addition to tho letters in the burned buikling*tbat belonge d to the Ganne tt iV Morse Concern wero a number that be longed to parties outside the .State. The right simply to copy the; signatures to these had been purchased. Word bad been received to ship back one let of these tho night before the lire, and they had been put in barrels for that purpose. Tills lot was so charred by the fire that It is practically wortltle-s. though a portion of the letters may be recovered. Another large lot, which was stored in the central part of the building, was a total loss The origin of tha lire is still a mystery. The oil and other combustible materials used in tits business were stored in a small building s >me distance north of the burned building. This with its con tents, escaped the flames. The power came from tho ba enient, of the brick building where the boiler is located. Three or four weeks ago a second boiler was ordered by th Concern. This is j expected to arrive next week, and, to gether with the one now in the basement I of the brick building, will be put in posi j tlon in the new boiler house. The brick building is now a veritable beehive. All the available room is utilized, and the work is being pushed with the vigor that has always chsractor ized this hustling concern. Augusta has just reason to feel proud of if. and the courage and enterprise I which enabled It to rise above such a J loss, with no cessation of business. TWO COM WIINIC4TI0NS.
