For many years an esteemed communicant of

and Scrofula sores on her face, head and

Tobacco Kills Cholera.
The joyful news, to users of the weed,
is cabled to the New \Vorld that a lot
of German medical experts have dis-
covered that nothing so surely kills
cholera germs as tobacco 1 Well, we al-
ways thought it horrible enough to kill
anything less tough than a Harlem
goat. '
A Harrisonian.
The venerable Henry I. Hoyt. whose
distinct personality is still so familiar
about our streets, voted for William
Henry Har1ison for President in 1836
and again in the phenomenal campaign
of 1840. He voted for the Old hero’s
grandson, Benjamin Hari ison for P1es1-
dent in 1888 and expects to do the same
again in just three weeks from next
Tuesday.

_ Hon. Fred. Miles.
. Mr. Miles, who was so spontaneously
and" enthusiastically nominated again
as the Republican candidate for Con-
gress in this district, has been twice
elected and twice defeated. He seems
to have developed a “winning way” of
carrying this strong Democratic dis-
trict, however, in Presidential years
and it will require something besides
bragand bluster on the partof the
.Fairfield and Litchfield Democracy to
defeat him this year.
Parks in New York Harbor.
- Last May a petition was presented in
' the United States Senate, signed by
60,000 residents of New York, asking
the Government to convert Bedloe’s
Island into a free public park. Sena-
tor Chandler, who ofi‘ered the petition,
thought it would meet with but little
objection, and the next Congress will
probably pass the necessary enactment.
The plan is highly commendable, but
there is opportunity for a kindred im-
provement that would be vastly more
beneficial to that city. We allude to
the conversion of Governor’s Island
into a public park. The subject has
often been discussed, and there may be
hope for its realization if the Bedloe’s
Island project succeeds. Governor’s
Island is of no possible use to the Gov-
. ernment now, and old Castle William
is only a laughing stock for foreigners.
But what a grand park could be made
there.

Horrors of the Fair.
Star attactions for the Chicago Fair
are announced in almost bewildering
plentitude. Two of of the most recent
announcements are particularly inter-
esting. A whole village of Eskimo In-
dians are now on the way tO Chicago,
where they will ‘delight visitors with
glimpses of Eskimo life within the arc-
tic circle. The lusciousness Of walrus
and the uselessness of soap will doubt-
les be made apparent to observers.
The other notable attraction alluded
to is the engagement of the champion
long time plano player. This announce-
ment is interesting to New York people,
because the lady is a resident of Elmi-
ra. She has a record, it is said, of fif-
teen hours continuous play, “without
apparent injury to herself or the piano”
The apathy of New York, as a compet-
itor ot the Fair, was a’subject of wide
comment at the ‘time of competition.
But New York isa city of wonderful
prescience. It scents horrors as the
war horse snilfs the battle.
The Hussar’s Treasure.
It is to be regretted that there are
. symptoms of disintegration in the back-
bone Of the company that is delving for
the Hussar’s gold under the water at
Hell Gate. The stockholders of the
company are frugal descendants of the
Puritans. They nearly all live in or
near the village of Leominsbur, Massa-
chusettes. 3A stern old skipper" seems
to have convinced’ them that it was on-
ly necessary to run a steam scoop into
the mud at a certain point in Bell Gate
channel in order to fetCh up four or
five millionyf gold, lost there in the
days of the evolution by the sinking
of a British pay-ship. The work of
dredging and scooping has now been in
operation for several months, but thus
far no “ lead ” of British sovereigns has
been struck. The outlook is discour-
aging and stockholders in the enter-
prise a’re finding fault. It 111 hoped that
they will not stop their researches at
least until. they have shed some light
upOn- the story that the Hustler was
robbed by'its oficers and‘then scuttled-
A Grusome Exhibit.
The managers of the World’s Fair
have now a first rate chance to secure
the greatest kind of an attraction at a
bargain. President Henre'aux, of San-
to Domingo, has had the happy thought
of raising some cash by pawnil'ig the
remains of Columbus, which are be-
lieved to be interred 1n that happy is-
land. He has applied for the loan to
his Uncle Sam. Offering to hand over
the dust, so to-speak, on receipt of a
hundred thousand dollars, agreeing to
pav the interest indefinitely, the relics
to be held as security. As Uncle Sam
is not dealing in relics just now, it is
suggested that the WOrld’s Fair people
should consider the offer. It is true
that they have not much surplus capital,
even with their own loan from the same
revered relative, but in the exhibition
of the bones of Columbus at Chicago
there is a potentiality Of wealth beyond
the dreams of avarice, and such an op-.
portunity may not occur again. Of
course, as concerning the authority of
M. Henreaux in the matter, it were well
not to inquire too particularly.
The Charge Withdrawn.
The publication in the Boston Globe,
and telegraphed all over the country,
of false and scandalous charges in re-
gard to the private life of Miss Lizzie
Borden, now awaiting trial on the
charge of murdering her father and
mother, has created a strong public
sympathy for the accused, not in New
England alone, but throughout the
whole country. The Globe has made a
complete retraction Of the charges it
printed and has apologized for publish-
ing them, but to bring an accusation of
this sort, without better proof than the
statement of a detective, against a help-
less and imprisoned woman, was an out-
rage of the grossest sort. It is to be re-
gretted that unscrupulous repOrters and
sensational newspapers cannot leave the
case to be tried according to law; Miss
Borden may be guilty of this terrible
crime,but we do not believe thatshe is,
and she should not be convicted of such
a horrible atrocity without a fair trial.
Attempts like that of the Boston Globe
to prejudice the public against her by
circulating defamatory reports regard-
ing her character are infamous and
should not be tolerated.
.—
Exterminating Outlaws.
The public has read with a great deal
tical extinction by shooting of the act-
ive spirits of the Cooley gang .‘in Penn-
sylvania and the Dalton gang in Kan:
sas. The only regret w1ll be that in
the latter case the lives of several hon-
est and law-abiding citizens were sacri-
flood in the battle that ended in the
practical annihilation Of the band of
desperadoes.
The evolution of these family gangs
of outlaws, of which the James, Young-
er, Dalton and Cooley families have
been conspicuous examples is a blot up-
on American civilization. In a coun-
try where every able-bodied man can
earn an honest livelihood there is no
excuse for the existence of a class of
freebooters who make themselves ater-
ror to whole communities. The law
should suppress such gangs by lawful
methods, and it should not be necessary
for private citizens to engage in deadly
battle to prevent the looting "of banks
or railway cars in open daylight.
Something must be allowed, it is true,
fOr the inefficiency of ordinary legal
agencies for the protection of life and
property on the borders of civilization,
but neither Pennsylvania nor Kansas
can properly be'classed as nosv States
at this time.
The Cooleys and Daltons defied the
law and preyed upon the surrounding
communities through their boldness
and daring, and legal .methods having
failed, there was nothing to be done
but to treat them as outlaws and shoot
them like dogs. The country is well
rid of the plundering and murderous
freebooters at any cost. The extermi-
nation of these two gangs, however,
suggests the necessity of a stronger and
more efficient constabulary than is pro-
vided for by existing laws.
___ _—-——‘
The American Crowd-
The merest glance at :the reports of
the Columliian celebration in New York
is sufficient to make it evident that the
most remarkable and the most impos-
ing feature of the celebration was the
crowds which thronged the streets,
its varied spectacles. In this there is a.
forecast of the greatest display that
Chicago, after all, will have to make
next year to the nations of the earth.
The panorama of American products,
manufactures, ways and means of traf-
fic, our arts, letters and all our vast na:
tional economy, will be'petty cbmpared
with the people themselves who will be
on unconscious exhibition there. The
American crowd, vast, innumerable
and governing itself with the lightest
touch— of the rein, will declare most ad-
mirably the spirit of free institutions.
It is impossible to conceive of a more
complete testimony to the success of
such institutions than that a milliOn of
people should consider self-imposed or-
der the first requisite to the enjoyment
of a public holiday, .and that good be-
havior should be the broadest and most
desirable public domain.
Columbus as a Discovo
Strenuousefi'orts have been made re-
cently to shatter the. foundation on
which the fame of Columbus rests.
An English historian, among the host
of "writers on the subject, has just pub-
of satisfaction the accounts of the prac- '
house-tops and river banks, to witness .

lished a book on America in which he
speaks of the achievement Of Columbus
as a “re- discovery.” Other writers
pugn his motives.
The claim that Europeans landed on'-_
Columbus is apparently well. founded.
two expeditions of Norseman reached
our coast by way of Iceland and Green-
land,and that one of them explored the
coast as far down' as Massachusetts. But
these sturdy Scandinavians accom-
plished no practical result. If they
made any attempt at settlement they
either abandoned it or were driven
away by the Indians. For nearly five
hundred years afterward Europe knew
no more of America than we know of
continents in the newly discovered
moon of Jupiter.
While it is true that Columbus never
reached North America, he opened the
door for other explorers and paved the
way to subsequent settlements. - Nor is
it a matter of any consequence that he
lived and died in the belief that the
land he had discovered was the eastern
coast of Asia. He visited nearly all
the W est India Islands, touched at
points in Central America and skirted
the coast of South America a consider-
able distance. These‘Adiscoveries stirred
up every maritime nation in Europe.
Americus, Cabot and half a dozen other
navigators were soon in the wake of
Columbus, but it was the genius and
indefatigable energy of the old Geno-
ese sailor that made their exploits pos-
sible. ‘
Hebrews as the Vanguard.
If any race has been particularly ben-
efi-tted by the discovery of America it is
the J ewish race. If any people have
particularly benefitted America it is
the Hebrew race. Filled with signifi-
cance and propriety, therefore, were
the first services in the Coluinbian cel-
ebration in New York yesterday. They
were held in Jewish synagogues, and
representatives .of the people, whose ex-
pulsion from Spain was contemporane-
ous with the sailing of Columbus, dem-
onstrated in patriotic songs and ser-
mons their appreciation of the unwit-
ting work of Columbus, says the Wash-
ington Post.
SO stupendous were the effects of the
discovery of America upon old world
the dissipation of ignorance, narrow-
ness and persecution, so did it widen
the intellectual vision of humanity that
it is marvelous that any remnant of the
middle ages should have survived the
planting of settlements in this country.
But prejudice persisted and in some
quarters obtains to- day, and among its
chief victims have been members of
that race, who, it is said, were repre-
sented among the followers of Colum-
bus on his westward exploration. These
people have found in America a land
where bigotry and fanaticism may no
longer flourish, where a man is given
equal opportunities for advancement
with other men without regard to creed
and where they have contributed their
share to the advancement of civiliza-
tion. They found here much to accord
with their modes of thought. The
founders of New England engrafted
'much of the theology and state polity
of the ancient Hebrews upon the form
of government they established, but
even this was softened by the ever-
widening influence Of the discovery.
But the stability of this government
has depended largely upon the charac-
teristics which developed from the New
England theocracy, and which have
been firmly fixed in‘American institu-
tions, which the modern Jews enjoy.
New York has arranged a magnificent
programme for this week. Its public
and parochial school parades, the naval
and military demonstrations, its con-
certs, banquets and illuminations are
such as only the great exponent of the
wealth, enterprise and bustle of the
United States might ‘be expected to
produce, but it is gratifying to the
Jews as well as to all who realize what
this country owes to‘Itheir race that
their formal participation in the cele-
bration should have been given the
right of line.
