GOOD The drivers of the political ambulan- ces will be kept very busy in Ohio this EVENING. ~ __——— week. Winter appears to be doing a con- tinuous performance turn in the lap of Spring. The Nebraska troops in the Philip- pines will ‘receive a royal welcome up- on their return, and they will not have to act as their own press agents. The New York Police Commission- ers have ordained that the people of that town shall be good. This is a powerful cOntribution to the morality of Gotham. Promissory notes hereafter given to cover margins on speculative opera— tions cannot be sued for and collected by law in'Iowa, under the terms of a recent Supreme Court decision in that State. Speculation on margins, says the court, “is gambling; and debts thus contracted cannot be enforced at law.” What is law in Iowa is good law else- where, no doubt, but the sepculative habit takes no note of, legal status when profits and losses are in question. If notes be uucollectible when given to secure margins, why, margins must be put in cash. That is all! Among the appOintments of deputy sheriffs made by Sheriff Hawley yes- terday was that of John W; Scully of South N'orwalk‘to succeed F. S. Lyon, Jr., also of that city. Personally Mr. SOully is agentleman With quite an extended acquaintance, but if the Republican ptrty is indebted to him his not so understood by the. rank and file of that organiZation‘, ”es: pecially as he is charged by members of that party with having been a rabid free silver Democrat at the last elec~ tion, and with having cast his vote for Bl yan. It is the general opinion that Sheriff Hawley has made a political blunder. It is not very hard to burn up a town 1 like Dawson City, which is built alto- gether of frame and canvas and where the inhabitants have been too busy prospecting to spare any time on pre- cautions for the safety of their prop- erty. The aggregate value oft-the build- ings destroyed cannot be great and to replace them will give , welcome em- plo'yment to some of the idlers. The serious loss from this fire is in the actual cash consumed. Much of the ready money'of the place was in the bank and oth er buildings that were burned, and as not even the bank was possessed of a fire-proof safe, it is said that over a million dollars in notes and gold disappeared in the flames. ' The venturesome population of Daw- son will not be discouraged by this hard experience, which is not unusual to settlements of its class, and in course . of time no doubt a more substantial town will gradually grow up there, as the winners of fortune gradually sepai - ate themselves from the great crowd of losers. It would seem thatit might be a. promising speculation to convey a fire-proof to the enterprising place or to construct avault under ground, for the safe-keeping of such valuables as are not carried in the pocket. ‘A‘ er Story of a Slave. , To be bound hand and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery. George D. Williams of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He says: “ My wife has been so helpless for five Years that she could not turn over in bed After using two bottles of Elec- one. kfile BiUers, she is wonderfully im-_ mroved and able to do her own work. ’3 This supreme remedy for female dis- eases quickly cures nervousness, sleep- lessness, melancholy, headache, back- eche, fainting and dizzy spells. This miracle working medicine is a godsend to weak, sickly, run down people. Every bottle guaranteed. Only 506. Sold by John A.

NEW YORK, May 24.—Li~ttle Marion, the golden haired tot of 20 months who was carried "off by a. mysterious nurse- girl from Arthur Clark’s, home, 159 East Sixty-fifth street, Sunday morning, is still missing, and Captain McClusky is all at sea on the most remarkable ab- duction case that he has been called up- on to solve in his long professional ex- perience. ‘ '. ' German Officers Killed. LONDON, May 24.—The Daily Mail publishes the following dispatch from Tien—tsin, the port of Peking: “Three GErman officers were killed on May 20 by the Chinese at Kiaochau, the Ger- .man port in the Shangtung peninsula, ‘whieh may lead Germany to use force to compel the payment of indemnity.” ——l-—.—-———“ Two Murdererd'S'énte‘n'céfl. LANCASTER, Pa... May 24.-—BenJa— min F. Deane pleaded guilty yesterday in the supreme court to a. charge of kill~ , Eng his wife,,.Elizabeth' Burke Deane, on May -1, 1398. at Berlin. Deane was sen- tenced to 25 years in the state prison. John Picot, also accused of murder, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to state prison for ten years. .--_..n 'Why eats Rigs. Why does a cat hiss when angry? Take a tiny kitten at play and make it angry and it Will snarl in, its baby fashion and hiss as best it can. Why? In Pearson’s Magazine Dr. Louis Rob- inson says that the hissing and spitting of young kittens is probably an instinc- tive attempt to scare away enemies from the helpless tots by imitating a, snake’s hiss. A great many creatures that live in shallow holes have a like habit of hissing when annoyed or an— gered. The tail of a cat seen dimly in the half light of a. cave suggests a snake’s tail and is often marked in a way to heighten the resemblance. “If," says Dr‘. Robinson, “this really is an instance~ of prptective mimicry, I think it is probable that the chief foe guarded against was the eagle. Eagles are very fond of cat flesh, and it has been re- marked by naturalists that these form- idable birds habitually make war upon the smaller felidae.” ' ORCHARD AND GARDEN. Clear out the old dry wood from your gooseberry, currant, raspberry and other kindred bushes. The peach and the plum are so closely related to each other that they can be grafted on each other. Prune the grape severely at the start, and at three years old, a few bunches of grapes can be allowed to mature. While the best land is none too good to raise strawberries, yet land that will grow good corn and potatoes will do. ' Grapes may be grown from the seeds, but the fruit of seedlings is not like that of the parent viiie.—-VVestern Plowman. Professional Card. L DIES’ NURSE.
