THE UNOlSPUTED SUPERIORITY Of
the medicinal virtues of Robaok's Blood Pills.
Stomach Biltcrs and Blood Purifier over all
other remedies prepared to relieve suffering
humanity. is shown in many ways, but espe.
cially is,it eviuccd in this; important fact:---
That responsible druggists aul merchants all
over the country take active interest in intro
ducng them to their best customers and friends
while, n the same time, it isquite as much to
their peeuniarY interest 70 recommend other
medicines The reason FOR this is Obvious
They IRE in positions 10 see the pre'emineut

given them the trial, and the Blood Purifier is
Acknowledged 10 be one OF the best remedies

EGecfs Of Radical ksnle.

Radical rule is injuring the business
of the country. This fact will not be
denied by those who have paid any
atten ton to the subject. Expenses are
too high, the debt too enormous and
taxation piled upon property and labor
until each and both are staggering un-
der the load. The yearly expenses OF
the National asd State governments are
more than the six millions of wealth
the creators can provide for, unless they
are stinted iu food and clothing; unless
they forego a portion of the necessaries
of life. This is just the point. The real
wealth producers of the country are
stinting themselves in order TO contrib
ute their quota to the expenses of the
nation. They wear less clothing, meat
is more rarely seen upon their tables,
bltter has been exiled and tea aud
coffee are only for special occasions.
In the weautime, children are forced
from school at au earlier age, be-
cause their parents cannot feed and
clothe them, and put into manufactories
and workshops and other places of labor
to earn their OVID liviHgs, and come
upon the stage of action men without
education to fit them for the struggle ol
life. These are some of the effects OF
Radical rule.

Rare Sport on the Lnkes.

Long Point, on the north shore of
Lake Erie, must be capital resort Ior
sportsmen. A company which Is regu-
larly incorporated has purchased tract
of land there, including some eighteen
Thousand acres, about six thousand OF
which are marshes. They have erected
suitable buildings and have rare sport:
There are twelve licensed hunters"
living on the tract, who, during the
summer season, busy themselves in
coasting and otherwise, but are readl-
ness for sporting at the opening OF the
shooting season. During the winter
thew trap muskrat and mink, with which
the Point abounds, as the fact of their
making catches during the winter
months of about ten thousand skins,
attest. The season of trapping is
limited to six weeks in the
spring of the year, whereas, formerly, it
was carried on all the winter. The
present restrictions are decidedly ad-
vantageous, as will be seen from the
fact that the winter "catch" has been
increased thereby about 1000 skins. The
trapping of the mink has also been in
creased, about 200 skins being the aver
age yield for the winter months. The
company employs head manager and
two keepers, who look after tho inter-
ests of the grounds and prevent poach-
ing. A portion of the tract is leased to
lumbermen for the purpose of cutting
timber. At the conclusion of the lease,
which will occur some time next year,
it is the intention of the company to
stock the Point with deer, partridge
and quail, thus making a most exclu-
sive preserve. There are between fif-
teen and twenty ponds on the tract
which afford refuge to the vast num-
Der of ducks and other water fowl which
frequent these places during the day,
and to this is owing, in great measure,
the preservation of the excellent shoot
ing here afforded. The wild celery and
rice, which now grow in abundance
throughout the marshes affords excel
lent food for the game, and the ducks
grow very fat in consequence. About
the 18th of October the finest shooting
commences, and then the black and
gray duck, mallard, gray teal, blue and
green winged teal, pin-tail, and blue
bill are to be found in great quantities.
The wood duck, black and gray duck,
breed on the tact, but the other varie-
ties are foreigners, who migrate thither
during certain seasons. No shooting is
allowed on the premises on Sundays,
and when circumstances admit, religious
service is held; SO it may be seen that
the moral basis of the company is fully
established. The creeks aud ponds are
filled with varieties of fish. The "Kan-
kakee Hunting Club" which is COM
posed chiefly of citizens of Allegheny
county, have, however, greater varie
ty of game than the Long Point Com
pany, such as prairie chickens, snipe
and woodcock. ...

Tuesdny,s Elections.

The elections of last Tuesday, al
though showing immense Democratic
gains since last year, seem to have re-
suited in the success of GEARY in Penn
sylvania and of HAYES in Ohio. In the
latter State the Legislature is in doubt,
with the chances rather in favor of the
Democrats. So far as the political failure
of Ohio is concerned, the character OF
this Legislature must determine to
which party shall be awarded the sub,
stantial fruits of the political struggle
The fate of the Fifteenth Amendment
probably depends upon this Legisla-
ture. That body will also elect Senator.
as successor to SHERMAN and re. arrange
the Ohio Congressional Districts. If,
as we hope, it shall turn out that the
Ohio Legislature is Democl attic, there
will be much to soften the regret so
generally felt at Mr.. PENDLEToN's de-
feat. That he has not been elected is
due, as we take it, to the apathy of
such Ohio Democrats as would not al
low themselves to believe that success
was possible.

Not long since two cent dog sprang
from an alley, followed by two cent
brick. Rounding a corner at right
angles he came in contact with the feet
of woman who was carrying jug OF
molasses in one hand and basket OF
eggs in the other. The sudden collision
of the dog with her lower extremltles
threw her from. .her feet, and she sat
down on the basket of eggs, at the
same time breaking the jug OF molas-
ses on the pavement. A young gentle
man, carpet bag in hand, anxious 10
catch the train, was running clese be-
hind, and stepping upon the fragment
of the jug and its contents, fell down on
the chest of the Dutch woman, who said
"Mine Cot" The young man. said some
thing about mad dog. but in a moment
said it backward. Iu the meantime the
dog had run against the feet of team
of horses attacked to a wagon loaded
with potatoes, and they taking fright
started home. The end board being oRt,
they unloaded the potatoes as they
went. Crossing the railroad track, the
wagon caught in a rail and tore it from
its place. A freight Car coming along a
few moments later was thrown from
the track, smashing up dozen cars and
killing thirty or forty hogs. The horses
on reaching home, ran through barn
ward and overturned a milk pail, the
contents of which another two cent dog
licked up. One of the horses, having
broken his leg, was killed, and the other
was crippled for life. 1t is now mooted
question whether the man who threw
the brick at the two cent dog, or the
man who owns it is responsible for the
chapter of accidents which followed.
