GOODEVENING. Liberal appropriations for fireworks is merely another proof of the general feeling that this country has money to burn. Jelfries’ alleged intention of going on the stage suggests that he might be of real serviceas a knockerbn the stage door. ' Ian Maclaren says Americans spend their time making money. The amount he carried away with him shows they also devote some time to throwing it away. Even supposing Admiral Dewey is presented. with a home here, the wel- come he gets on hisarrival is bound to' bring down the house. As might be expected, the rumor of a billion dollar beer trust has excited much unfavorable .comment. Where this beverage plays a part there growlers are numerous. ”That the Democratic national com- mittee is generally in favor of free silver is an argument against the theory that whipping's tend to impress lessons on the mind. Aguinaldo may not be dead, but his saying he’s going to die in the last ditch may mean he expects ultimately to “run the thing into the ground.” That Hague conference makes a mistake in blue penciling the news it gives out. Blue penciling news is rather a war survival than a harbinger of peace; The Count de Castellane, pensioner ofthe. Gould family. never has been suspected of much brains, but he made a monkey of ' himself in court on Wednesday. Where is this spirit of territorial ex- pansion geing to stop? There’s a pro- ject afoot for a lot of New .Yorkers to buy the Lakes of Killarney in Ireland. The Appetite 01‘ a‘ Goat Is envied by all poor dyspeptics whose Ssomach and Liver are out of order. All such should know that Dr. King’s New Life Pills. the wonderful Stomach and Liver Remedy, gives a splendid appetite. sound digestion and a regular bodily habit that insures perfect health and great energy. Only Zile. at John A. Riggs’ drug store, 11 . Main street. Gaine Laws lrct‘vn'i'iast. A down east editor has drawn up some new game laws which he wants adopted. The folldvving is a summary: “Book agents may be killed from Oc— tober 1 to September 1; spring poets, from March 1 to June 1; scandalmon- gers, from April 1 to February 1; um- brella borrowers, from Augunt 1 to November 1, and February 1 to May 1,. while every man who accepts a news- paper two years, and, upon being pre- sented with his bill, says: ‘I never or- dered it';’ may be killed on the spot without reserve or relief.” Remember a ton of wheat takes $7 worth of fertility from your farm; a ton of butter but 50 cents, and a ton of butter brings vastly more money. The Kidney complexion. The pale. sallow, sunken-cheeked, distressed-looking‘peeple you so often meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com- plexion.” ,, Their kidneys are turning to a pars- nip color. So is their complemon. They may also have indigestion, or suffer from sleeplessness, rheumatism, neuralgia, brain trouble,'nervous ex- haustion, and sometimes the heart acts badly. ' ' _ The cause is weak, unhealthy kid- neys. Usually the sufferer from kidney disease does not find out what. the trouble is until it is almost too late. be- cause the first symptoms are so like' mild sickness that they do not think they need a medicine or a doctor until theyfind themselves sick in bed. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root will build up and strengthen their weak and dis- eased kidneys, purify their diseased, kidney-poisoned blood, clear their com- plexion and soon they will enjoy better health. You can get the regular sizes at the drug store, at fifty cents and one dol- lar, or you may first prove for yourself the wonderful virtues of this great dis- covery, Swamp-Root, by sending your address to Dr. Kilmer on Co. Bingham- ton, N. Y., for a sample boitle and a book that tells all about it. both sent to you absolutely free by mail.

WASHINGTON. , lnltruciive Incidents in the Life of the Recognized Leader of the Colored Race. Booker T. Washington was born in Franklin county, Va., but he does not know when—no record having been kept- of colored children’s births in the days of slavery. - His first memory is of clinging to his mother’s skirts while she shouted hal- lelujah for her freedom. Whether it was under this mother’s instruction or that of his teachers in the colored schools, or both, the boy evidently grew BOOKER '1‘. WASHINGTON.

He worked in a coal mine after he was old enough to earn his living, but to study whenever and wherever he could get at a book. Dr. John F. Cowan, in the Christian Endeavor World, tells how Booker heard of a place where students worked for their education, and how he final-' ly entered Hampton normal institute. He arrived there afoot, shabby and covered with dust. _ The faculty did not know what to think of him, and doubted whether they could offer him anything beyond a meal of victuals and a chance to wash himself. But at last they concluded to give him a room to sweep, and accordingly a broom was put into his hands. He swept the floor once, and looked at his work. It did not satisfy him. He went over it a second time, carefully brushing out all the corners; but an— other inspection didnot cenvince him that he had done a perfect job. He swept that room a third time, and then he concluded he had done the best he could. ‘ - Soon after one of the lady teachers came in and took note of his perform- ance. . A quick survey showed her that at least the floor Was clean.‘ She touched the walls .and, chairs with her white handkerchief in search of dust, .but'if she found any she did not say so.

And when, in 1881, Gen. Armstrong sent him to teach school in a Tuskegee shanty, he faced, and felt, as he had never felt before, the helpless ignorance of his race, and resolved that he would try to sweep some of it away. The story of his thoroughness and his suc- cess is now part of our national history. . PRINCE 'AND PRIEST. From Gayl'i’oung- Lieutenant Max of Saxony Evoke: Into an Apostolic Vicar. For a young man Prince Max of Sax- ony has seen much of the world .in all its phases. being the third son of Prince George, brother of the king and heir apparent to the Saxon throne. IIis eldest sister PRINCE MAX or SAXONY; (Started in Life as a Soldier and Now In a Priest.) is Princess Mathilda, who the gossips of Europe say is to marry Emperor Franz Josef of Austria. Prince Max was trained for the army, which he en! tcred, serving as lieutenant in the Dural regiment of grenadiers. During his career as a soldier be lived a gay life, in consequence of‘wbich the surprise was greater when, in 1803, he sudden- ly left his regiment and enfq'ed' the monastery at Eisenach, where he stud- ied for the priesthood. Before he was ordained in 1890 ‘he renounced all his rights to the throne of Saxany. "De- spite his youth, the pope almost im- mediately appointed him apostolic vicar of Saxony.
