' He Was Known In France as “the Grove- digger of the Senate.” Paris, May 5,—Henri Louis Tolain, senator from the Seine, at one time termed by himself “the gravedigger of the senate,” on account of his advocacy of the suppression of the upper cham- ber, of which he was a member, is dead. He was born in Paris in 1828, and in 1861 went to England as assistant sec- retary of the W'orkmen’s commission to the exhibition of that year. In 1862 he was again sent to England at the in- stance of the French government with a delegation of workmen to study the divers industries of Great Britain and compare them with those of France. In 1864 he was one of those who at- tended the meeting in St. Martin’s hall, London, and laid the foundation for the International Association of Workmen, founded on the model of the trades unions of Great Britain, and which soon became a. powerful” political force and resulted in a number of workmen’s [congresses in different parts of Europe. At .the Brussels congress, in 1868, he proposed that the delegates should de— cide Whether, in case of a general war threatening Europe, “the workmen should, in the measure of their strength, prevent it from breaking out.” After a. number of political ups and downs M. Tolain was elected to represent the Seine in the national assembly and dis- tinguished himself during debates on economic” questions, always being a sturdy champion of the workman. He was elected to the senate in 1876, and was re-elected in 1882 and in 1891. In March, 1891, he was sent as a delegate of France to the workmen’s congress at Berlin. ‘ AWFUL EXPERIENCE OF SBAMBN. Twenty-Four Hours Clinging to an Over- turned Schooner. Vineyard I-Iaven, Mass, May 5,—The .crew of the British schooner Ethel Granville, Captain Howard, from St. .John's,‘ for Middletown, Conn, were landed at this port today after a nar- row escape from death by the founder- ing of the vessel last Sunday. The schooner was found to be leaking early on Sunday morning, .when she was about 14 miles northeast of Pollock Rip lightship. The crew were unable to re- pair the damage, and she filled rapidly, and at about 11 o'clock she, rolled over. "The crew managed to cling to the bot- tom of the wreck until yesterday morn: ing‘, when the fog which had prevailed since the day before lifted, and.they fflhi that the yawl was 'stilltflsea- worthy, although there was onlynone oar. They climbed into the beat, and, with the oar and a board, succeeded in , making their way to the lightship. The men were'nearly exhausted when they reached there, and they were taken on board and cared for. The steamer Sterling took the wreck- ‘-ed men from the lightship and transfer- red them to the steamer Susie D, from I . % which:theymfirgjilandadhrre. I ’ , ‘ . ‘ n .

They are bolting ancient and useless methods of—treating catarrh and hay fever,and they have come over in full force for California Catarrh Cure because they have tried it and know its worth.. Here are the words from a Norwalk man who has tried many medicines and treatmentsbefore he got what he wanted California Catarrh Cure the greatest and only known cure for catarrh. Mr. Alfiel Plath, 9 Maple street, Nor- waui, says: "I have been a greatsufi'er- er from catarrh for over thirty years, having contracted the disease during the war. Mv whole head seemed full of scabs, and the discharge from the nose and into the throat wassomething awful. My head ached almost continually, and I never got a good night’s sleep. I pro- cured a bottle of California Catarrh Care at Plaisted’s drug store, South Norwalk. It has given me more relief than I have had for years; my head is‘ very much improved and I can now sleep all night. It is certainly a great releiver. and I am glad to recommend it. Nothing among all the things Itrled before helped me one quarter as much in months, as C. C. C. has in a few weeks." You don’t have to wait to find out if it will help you for it relieves at once. To avoid Hay Fever in its season, use C. C. C. now. It is a sure preventive of this and all mucous diseaSes. Use it to break up your colds, and to prevent colds “hanging on.” Price, 50 cents; three times as much for one dollar. Funeral of Mrs. Grace Carter.

Scott, convicted of shooting his wife, Maggie Scott, in New Yorkcity in 1895, was affirmed today by the court of ap- peals, and he must pay the extreme- penalty. He was convicted on Jan. 22, 1897. The court also affirmed the decision of conviction of murder, first degree, of Giuseppe Constantino of Utica. for‘the killing of Pietro Domenicho Galiotti. The appellants held that the judge’s charge plainly showed that, in his opin- ion, the defendant was guilty, improp- eriy influencing the minds of the jury- men.
