'1'ruth above on things.’ Entered in the Post ofiice as-a Newspaper. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13,1899. GOOD EVENING.“ Still it’s a pity that the Dark Conti nent should have to be lit up by the fires of opposing guns. When it comes to reading about prosperity the present volume of ti ade can’t well be overlooked. Now that news censorship is remov- ed from Manila another thing that may be freely talked over is the cable. Naturally the Boers will sell their lives dearly, and the British won’t think the Transvaal’s gold is too‘big a price. . - Why this criticism of Bryan asking $300 a talk for his talk? Does it not to that extent show he is out for sound money ? was busy Now Only recently Kruger twisting the English lion’s tail. he’s likely to have his hands full in other ways. If there’s no wind for \those yachts its not due to old neptune holding his breath in astonishment at the speed they’re making. As an investment of time and talk McKinley may only expect'a return from this Ohiobusiness about election day next year. That scrap-book presented to Dewey didn’t contain any recent Dewey poetry As a book of scraps it naturally confin- ed itself to his fights. In one way the widening of the‘ breach ’twixt Briton and Boer is all right if it ofiers the more room for peace to come between. Some think this doubtful talk about Ohio has been inspired with a view of so scaring Hanna that he might try to creep deeper into his barrel. A curious thing about money pol- itics is a candidate with a barrel giving a check to his friends with the ulterior view of giving a check to his enemies. IVbile there’s pe:haps nothing wrong in ”those favoring the Columbia and Shamrock boasting of their qualities, the real thing is for the wind to begin to blow, Electricty is now said to be stored in capsules and taken inwardly. As a form of light nourishment it would seem to have advantages over the candle idea of the Russians. Nobody especially minds that there’s something bright- in the. prospects for Spain after all. It has yearly three thousand hours of sunshine as against Am erica’s twenty-one hundred. . Adispatch to the London Standard descriptive of events of the Dewey cel- ebration in New York, says of the Ad- miral: schoolboy read this morning how he accepted a basket of “Every flowers from a. committee of ladies and permitted one of the committee to snap- shot him standing beside them with his arm about the chairwoman.” Nobody on. this side saw it happen. ‘ ‘-_ Parsnip complexion. It does not require an expert to de- tect the sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow cheeks. the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy Circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip-colored complexion indicates it. .A physician would ask if you had rheumatism, a. dull pain or ache in the back or over the hips. stomach trouble. desire toprinate often, or a burning or scalding sensation in passing it; if after passing it there is an unsatisfied feel- ing as if it must be at once repeated. or if the urine has a brick dust deposit or strong odor. When these symptoms are present, no time should be lost in removing the cause. ‘ Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the bladder,inflammation, causing stop- page, and sometimes requiring the drawing of the urine with instruments. or may run into Bright’s Disease, the most (1 angerous stage of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer‘s Swamp-Root. the great discovery of the eminent kidneyand bladder specialist, is a positive remedy , for such diseases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is so easy to get at any drug store that no one need suffer any length of time for want of it. However, if you pr efer to first test its wonderful merits mention THE EVEN- ING GAZETTE and write to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.

WEEKLY NORWALKLGAZE DON’T WAIT T00 LONG \- CONGRESS or: NATIONS, Commercial Experts Gather In Phil- adelphia. ‘ . PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 13.—With roost impressive ceremonies, which par- took of both an official and public char- acter, the international commercial con- gress was formally opened yesterday in the large auditorium of the main building at the National Export exposition. Fully 3,000 people assembled in the spacious auditorium and added their enthusiastic applause to the welcome extended to the delegates by representatives of the na— tion, of the municipality of Philadelphia and of the Philadelphia Commercial mu- seum, which organization conceived, ar- ganized and carried out the detail of ar- rangements for the great trade congress. The nation’s official musical organiza- tion, the Marine band, also did its share in enlivening the greeting to the foreign representatives. Fully 20 nations of the world were officially represented by dele- gates and over 400 delegates were pres- ent representing various chambers of commerce or trade boards in all parts of the world. The object of the congress is a development of the commerce of the world and the harmonizing of the varied trade interests. The discussions to follow in the sessions of the congress, which will continue for nearly three weeks, the closing session being fixed for Nov. 1, will he participated in by the delegates representing the different governmental and business interests, each presenting the position and policy of his own coun- try or commercial organization. Yester- day’s meeting was devoted wholly to the formal welcoming and the bringing to- gether of the delegates and acquainting them with each other. The deliberations of the congress will begin today. The sessions will be held in the convention hall on the second floor of the exposition main building. The deliberations will be in the English language, which is the official language of the congress, although delegates who prefer to speak their own language will be permitted to do so. In today’s exer— cises President McKinley was represent- ed in the person of Assistant Secretary of State I-Iill, while the foreign nations were officially represented by their lega- tions. GERMANS MA'SSACRED. Lieutenant Guise and Herr Loomey- er Killed In Southwest Africa. LIVERPOOL, Oct. 13.——The steamer Niger, which arrived yesterday from southwest Africa, brings news of file massacre of Lieutenant Guise, German commissioner at Rio del Rey, near Old Calabar river, on the Bight of Biafra, and also of Herr Loomeyer, a German trader, together with 100 native soldiers and carriers, constituting an expedition formed by Lieutenant Guise to quell dis- turbances near the Cross river, which forms the boundary between British and German territmy there. A native chief was taken as a guide, but he led the expedition into ambush. He was promptly shot when the Ger- mans received a volley. They fought courageously, but were outnumbered and slain. The natives then looted the neighbor- ing factories and murdered the native employees, after which they crossed into British territory. Two British traders, who were warned, had a hairbreadth es- cape, managing to get down the river in a canoe and to reach Rio del Rey, where they found only a solitary German offi- cial and half a dozen black soldiers. Great excitement prevailed at Rio del Rey when the Niger left on Sept. 17, as it was thought the natives might come there. News had been sent to the Cameroons, from which point a German relief expo- dition could be dispatched. An “Anti” League In Philadelphia. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 13.—In re- sponse to a call issued by George F.

Its objects are to maintain the truths set forth in the Declaration of Independence and to oppose the expansion and estab- lishment of the dominion of the United States, by conquest or otherw1se, over unwilling peoples in any part of the globe. -' Moody In Boston.
