There is no person living but what suf-
fers more or less with Lung diseases,
Coughs. Colds or Consumption; yet some

for bottle Of medicine that would cure
them. DR.. 4. Boschee's German Syrup
has long been known in this W orld, and its

The Daily papers of FRIDAY s

- The Daily papers of Friday and
Saturday morning last brought news
that the Cubans refused to give up the
captured Virginius and her passengers
and crew, in accordance with the
agreement between our Government
and Spain, but that they would proba-
bly, be willing to give the vessel, dc ,
up to some neutral power. This, of
course, our Government couid not
honorably consent TO after having
made rcquircm ents of the Spanish
Government, and the conditions of
our demands had been agreed to on
the part of the Spanish authority; to
do SO would look like a cowardly
backing down from our demands
Things had war>like appearance, and
the Cincinna ii Enquirer, or rather its
Washington City correspondent, was
almost dying for a fight. Among its
head lines of Saturday morning, was
this courageous exclamation: "On to
Cuban'
The news, however, of Monday
morning was of more pacific eharac-
ter, and it was believed the Cubans
would surrender the Virginius up to
the authorities of the United Statas,
rather than go to war with them.

The Pension Rolls.

Gen. Baker, the Commissioner Of
Pensions, has ordered the preparation
of "Grand Roll of Pensions, to
begin with the revolutionary period
and embrace all pensioners under all
acts from the beginning of the Govern
ment, the names to be alphabetically
arranged. together with the service,
date, disability, the rate, changes, if
any, in the pension, and final discon-
tinuance of the same, bydeath or other
cause. The pension roll has been
heretofore kept by the rolls of agen
cies, and by the number of certificates.
Requisition has been made for the
necessary books, and, with the limited
force able to engage in the work, it will
take about two years to complete it,

Security.

Business men almost universally rec
ognze the necessity Of Fire Insurance, in or
der to protect themselves from the great risks
in business, and in feet merchant would not
be considered worthy of trust if he did not in
sure his goods. While all, therefore, recog-
niZe the necessity of insuring their property,
many fail TO see that their lives also have a
certain insured value to their families, espe-
clally those that have no capital, as their labor
is the sole support of their families, which in
case of death is lost to them. The only means
by which this value may be insured is by
means Of policy of Life Insurance in good
company. One of the best of these is the Penn
Mutual Life Insurance Company of Philadel-
phia, in which policies may be obtained by ap-
plication to the home Office, 921 Chestnut ST.,
or to I. W. IredeG, Superintendent Of Western
