utte of Columbia of the class of ’83.

There is more Catarrh in this section of
the coutry than all other diseases put to—
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable.
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a con-
stitutional diSease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co ,Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. It is taken

~ internally in doses from 10 drops to a

teaspoonful. It acts directly on the

A‘FAMOUS uAmolT. . .

Italy's Dick Turpin, and His Astonishing|
a Career for Forty Yratis. 1
Italy has. lost by death the most ccle«
brated brigand chief of the present
century, 'wh0se name of Tiburzi had
become surrounded by such a halo of
romance that he was actually regard-
ed as one of the glories of the king-
dom.

Although for forty years he had lived
by means of crime, through which he
managed to amass an immense for-
tune, amounting to over $1,000,000, yet
he was one of the most popular per-
sonages in the dominion of King Hum-
bert, and the name of the carabinier
who laid him low with’a rifle bullet
is doomed to public execration. Nor is
it likely that the man will live long
to enjoy the $10,000 price that was set
on Tiburzi’s head. For there are hun-
dreds, who, deep in debts of gratitude
toward the famous brigand, have
sworn to avenge his death.

The poor—and nine-tenths of the peo-
ple are poverty-stricken in Italy—were
blindly devoted to him, knowing that
he was always ready to relieve their
misery with a gold coin, which did not
come the less amiss to them for hav-
ing been wrested by force from some
rich traveller. And he was likewise
an honored guest in many a country
house and even castle, the noble own-
ers of which were glad to pay him
tribute, uztending in some cases to as
Int-:11 as $1,000 per annum, in return
for which he guaranteed them in the
most absolute manner from any theft,
robbery or arson.

He was an important factor in all
the parliamentary, provincial and mu-
nicipal elections of Central Italy, and,
as far as the rural districts werc‘con-
cerned, invariably secured the election
of his own candidates by an over-
whelming majority, no one liking to
run the risk of casting their ballots in
favor of any other nominee than one
whom he put forward.

There was scarcely a village or a
small town in the central portion of
the kingdom the Mayors and Justices
of the Peace of which were not men
who owed their election entirely to
him. This goes far to explain the
astounding immunity which he enjoyed
for so many years and for the fact that
under his favorite disguise of a priest
he was constantly able to visit Rome,
sometimes for the purpose of conferr-
ing with the score or so of members
of the National Legislature, who were
indebted to him for their seats, and
sometimes for the purpose of inspect-
ing his real estate—all of it registered

in.

 

 

Among those whom he favored with '

his attention have been the reigning
Grand Duke of Saxe Meiningen, who
was forced to surrender all the valu-
ables that he carried about him, as
well as his wife’s jewelry, two years
ago while driving back from Frascati
to Rome, and it is probable that had
Tiburzi known of the rank of his vic-
tim he would have held him for a large
ransom—New York Journal.

The Settler Hunts Frogs.

“Talk about your dog stories,” ~said
a prominent sporting man the other
day. “I saw something out in Cutoff
Lake which beat anything I ever heard
of. .I was out there hunting snipe,
and saw a man riding around on horse-
back, and in front of him was circling
an Irish setter. As the fellow did not
have any gun, my curiosity was
aroused to know what he was doing,
but I supposed he was simply break:
ing his dog. In a few minutes I saw
him ride up to where the dog was on a
dead stand, and the horseman pro-
ceeded to jab a pole he was carrying
down into the ground, and bringing it
up, took something off the end of it.
My curiosity was greater than ever,
and circling around I came up with
the horseman, and asked him what he
was doing.

“ ‘Ilunting frogs,’ was the reply.

“ ‘What is the dog doing?’ said I.

“ ‘Hunting frogs,‘ was the laconic an-
swer. '

“ ‘You don’t mean to tell me that the
dog will set the frogs, do you?’

“ ‘I don‘t mpau anything else.’

“A few more questions and answers
brought out the fact that the dog had
seen his master hunting around in the

grass for frogs and spearing them, and

had of his own accord taken up the .
task of locating the green beauties. He :
was a thoroughly trained hunter on 5

birds, and he soon became very expert
in locating frogs, so his owner in-

formed me, and my observations of his .

movements confirmed the statements.”

Cabby’s Lack of Reverence.
“The Argonaut” tells of an incident
that happened to a noted American
singer in. Boston. She was to sing

at an evening concert, and a carriage

was to be sent for her. She was stay-
ing at :the time with a friend who had
a suite of rooms in a large apartment-
housc. in which the tube system of
communication with the outer world?
prevailed. It was past the time when
the carriage should have appeared, and
the lady was growing a little nervous.
She was sitting with her wraps on.
when the bell rang furiously. Hurry-
ing to the tube herself, the prima don-
na said, “Well?” The reply came in a
voice heavi r charged with irritation.
“I’m a hack an,” said the voice, “an’
I was sent here to get some cussed
lady, and’ I don’t know what in time
her last name is! I’ve rung every bell
in the house! Are you her?" W'hen
informed that the “cussed lady” her-
self was speaking to him, he coolly re-
plied: “Well, come on; we’ll have tc
lope it all the way to the hall to get
there on time!”

A man described one friend as being
so modest that he smelled of violets.
Another as such a chump that he
chewed his soup—New York Journal
