SATURDAY,_ APRIL 1, 1899. GOOD EVENING. The Easter bonnet has the call to- day. The weather clerk promises a clear Easter Sunday. ‘ PerhapsCaptain Rose retired to write a book on the canteen fund. ‘to secure the new city bonds. It is to be hoped that no lypching will follow the Bridgeport city election. The appearance of the Street Rail- way’s sprinkler is another indication of an early spring. A There is absolutely no hope for the newspaper whose editor tries to imitate the New York yellows. A school is to be established in New York in which women are to be taught how to talk 1 Great heavens Ill From the number of bicycles seen on the avenue yesterday we are led to be- lieve that ’99 is going to be a great year for wheels. The man who makesa practice of im- peachmg the motives of his contempo- raries is terribly put out when one hap- ' pens to discover aflaw in his own logic. ' pu r1her ‘1 Glorious News Comes from Dr. D. B. Cargile, of Washita, I. T‘ He writes: “F our bottles of Electric Bitteis has cured Mrs BroweI of scrofula, which had caused her gieat suffering fo1 y.eals Terrible sores would b1 eak out on her head and face, and the best doctors could give no help; but her cure is complete and her health 1s excellent.” This show 5 what thousands have proved ——that Electi Ic Bitte1s is the best blood known. its the sup1 eme remedy for eczema, tetter, salt 1heum, ulcers, boils and Iunning sores. It stimulates liver, k1dneys and bowels, 'expels poisons, helps digestion builds up the strength; Only 50 cents. Sold by John A. Riggs, dluggist 11 Main street.

It is usually thus when the ques-_ tion of the identification of the remains is raised. - The teeth tell the tale.— Boston Herald. A Brooklyn beggar with a bank ac- count of $20,000 is a good advertisement both of the profit in mendieancy and the uselessness of much so-called chari- ty.——Brooklyn Eagle. The caterer who pro rides the dollar- a—plat'e Jefferson birthday dinner for the Bryan Democracy should be careful to stipulate that they should not be 50 cent dollars—Chicago Times-Herald. The "Chicago platform Democrats’ have postponed the birthday of Thomas Jellierson. There are indications that they have done the stme thing to his principils.—Louisv1lle Courier-Jour- nal. At the recent municipal election in 'Hot Spring, Ark., five men were killed and 10 wounded. Whether this poor showing was due to bad markmanship or to the large stay-at-home vote is not reported.——Chicago News. There are better (11 ys ahead, golden and shiny days when the thermometer will Show 95 or 100 degrees abOve zero, and brows will be wet with more or less honest sweat, even as feet are now wet with more or less honest slop.— New Haven Courier. Even the young misses of Bridge- port are growing extravagant. for we read in the daily papers that they carry blue silk dolls. At any rate an advertisement. calls for “a small blue silk doll’s dress” which was lost. I11 our day rag dolls were not made of blue silk.-——Ansonia Sentinel. . What does all this combination and syndicate business mean, anyway? Is it calculated for the good of the people? It so, let it proceed. is it likely to be of detriment to the masses? Then let it be stopped forthwith. There seems ~ to be a great diversity of sentiment on. this question.—Paterson Call. There is no reason for the mix-up which is bothering some or our con- temper.“ we as to the diflerence be.- , tween the two kinds of Jefferson fol- lowers who will be_ on exhibition in " selves right. New York next month.‘ The one dOl- . 1ar J efiersonites are the 45‘ cents men, and the ten dollar thfersonians’ are the real dollaI men. Now it does seem as if that ought to be clear. —Po1tland Express. The best thing that any intelligent. workingman can do‘ to celebrate the birthday of Thomas Jefferson, we should say, instead of spending time or money to listen to the speeches of after dinner orators, is to study Jefi'erson’s writings, sift them -'carefully, 'Vveigh them honestly, and try to apply their best teachings to the question of. the day.—New York Times. ' Justice Wheeler of Bridgeport is giving the. yellow journal reporters every chance in the world to set them- Instead of punishing them then and there for contempt of court, he very graciously extends to them the opportunity to show why he should not prosecute them. This is so difielent f1 cm the usual method of the dignified justices that it deseives special mention. —Sp11nehtld Union. It must be admitted that Aguin aldo W ‘ i is dying pretty hard, but’he will haste The local‘banks now have a chance . to die all the same. Probably he isn’t in the fighting places but he is letting the poor, misguided heathen whom he has led to believe they Could easily drive the American forces back try the experiment with his guidance in ad— vice rather than presence. We are all eageIIy waiting for the concluding chapter. ——New London Telegraph. AA; PUERTO RICAN SMOKERS. The Tobacco Is Bad, But the Natives Love It and Use [1 Con- stuntly. Home-made molasses-soaked plug to bacco, in ropes a hundred feet long, is one of the primitive wonders of the island. On any market day one may see the tobacco-man with his little table piled up with bad cigars black as your but, so green that you may wring wa— ter from them. and so cheap that a silver dollar will buy out his stock in trade; but the thing which catches the eye is the cylinders, 18 inches high by six in breadth, made up. you would swear, from bights of liawsers soak d in tar, but in reality chewing tobacco. Try it once and 'quit. A tobacco chew- ing jockey from Georgia. with a (lay ashore at Ponce, volunteered the in- formation: “Yesfisuh, that's the- most pow’fnl stuff I ever slowed in my wis- dom teeth. Yes. suh. that's right.” I agreed with him, says .11 writerin Har. per’s Weekly. Smoking is almost universal in Porto Rico, the cigar and the cigarette be- ing alternated by most natives with- out any apparent preference. The bet- ter classes of the women Seem never to use tobacco in any form, and to one accustomed to seeing the dainty fingers of Mexican senoritas hold lighted cig- arettes after the black coffee is served somehow somtthing is lacking in the familiar ensemble a30f hopical home life. The peasant woman dearly loves her black cigar, and a sight which arouses risibility is the common one of a huge black aunt-y rolling down the center of a street burdened with head- balanced load heavy enough for a horse, plaCId ly. smoking an inky cigar of able pro- portions, whose clouds of smoke en- shroud her head and waft into her eon— tented half-closed eyes. Envy her. She has only' half enough to eat, but is rich in the soothing of nectar nicotine. , EMULATE WI‘LLI'A'M‘ MORRIS. Designers Change in Their \Vorklfrom Valentines to Mn 11 y .....1 \Vall Papers. A leading Inahufacturer of wall pa- per has this to sexy regarding the pret— ty, fanciful dcsi gun that decor alt h ousehold walls: “Many of the best designers- were once comic valentine. artists. The pay for 'the latter work is meager. but the artists do not. entirely depend on sketching for a living. - “The majority are unfittcd for high- class work, but one here and there drift-st into "black and- white. ' Wall pa- per designers earn good wages. Five years ago a valentine artist threw up the ugly caricatures in disgust; he earns from $25 to $50 weekly now, his floral patterns being at once striking and original. “Any girl designeIs. " A few here and there; we are told of a young lady. who, formerly a. Christmas card artist. . turned her attention to wall patterns. Though less artistic than bird and landbcape painting, it pays her better. Light. designing is very suit-able for I?- diesnvith an eye for pleasing patterns.” Try Grain-0!
