A HIGH-TONED B0OTBLACK.-A
New York paper tells this story:
"They pop in and buy box for twen-
ty-tive cents, never ask credit and away
they 90. Sometimes one returns in a
few minutes to buy another, his cloth
ing torn and his face scratched, having
met an envious fellow-bootblack and
butted boxes. One of these shavers
meets another with whom he has a
bone to pick, and grasping the box by
the step slashes away. Something must
give way, and when one of the boxes
caves in, the boy with the sound box
is satisfied"
A story is told of a bootblack who
bought five boxes in one Gay. He
had been doing flourishing business,
and was said by his rivals to be "a
little too high-toned'' for them. One
night he took his sweetheart to the
Bowery Theaterand procured reserved
seats. This action made the blood
boil in some of the other ''shiners,"
who peered at him from the gallery,
and all agreed that he had gone too
far. Early the next morning the
aristocratic bootblack was up and at
work. 1t was not long before five or
six brother artists were around hinl,
ready to ruin his box. They accused
him of putting On airs" and the
fight began. The box was ruined,
and the victims cap thrown into a
butchers cart dashing by, and the boy
went to Miller's for another box.
The box met the fate of the other, and
four times that day the boy bought
boxes. He promised never to be
caught in reserved seat again, and
his friends say he kept his promise.

The little speck of war, that now
looms up between this nation and
Spain, on account Of the atrocious acts
OF the cowarlly Cuban officials in the
Vtrgsntas affair, is beginning to effect
all ranks and classes of our people.
The account of the barbarities prac-
ticed by these Spanish officials upon
Americans had hardly been conveyed
across the continent, before the same
electric wire conveys the news of mon
ster meetings, called together as if by
one impulse, to condemn the outrage
and insist upon immediate and full
reparation. "War! war;" Is the cry
of the American people; and we are
inclined to the belief that if Spain
doesn't 'risc to explain" Immediately,
Cuba, with the aid of Uncle Sans
children, will be helped to set up in
the governmental business on her own
hook.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Z
the great Ticlibolne case of England
takes a rest for one year.
The manuiacture ofpig and wrought
iron is to be carried on at Ogden on q
large scale.
Right Worthy Grand Master A. J.
Marshall has been asked for q dispen-
sation 10 institute an Odd Fellows
lodge at Forest Grove.
Extreme cold weather Is prevailing
In the Eastern States, while the average
WebfeOt still seeks the shady side o.
the dwelling, about noon.
McMahon, of France, desires the
Assembly to prolong his office as
President, to seven years. 1t remains
to be seen whether the Assembly can
see it in that light.
It is now stated that the rebellion in
Cuba is kept alive by wealthy young
Cutans, tile slaveocracy, who aid In
keeping up the rebellionte prevent the
emancipation decree of the Madrid
Government from going into effect.
On the 17th, in New York city,
Robert Parten, one IF the jurars in
the Stokes case, was arrested, charged
with taking bribe. Ifthe charge is
substantiated, ninety-nine years in
Sing-Sing at hard labor would be none
too good for him.
Further legislation for the Territory
OF Utah will be recommendedby Pres
ident Grant in his forthcoming mess
age. Legislation is badly needed IN
Mormondom, to relieve judicial mat
tiers from present embarrassments.
Matters in Mexico are still mixed.
General Zepeta, deposed Governor Of
the State of Coahuila, is organizing
State troops at Saltillo, and another
conflict between him and the friends
Of the State is anticipated.
Railroad schemes still engross the
attention of Costa Rica. Congress has
approved the new contract with the
great railroad builder, Harry Meiggs,
to extend the railroad to the Pacific,
the old contract not providing for such
extension. Another big thing for
Meiggs.
There are 1900 miles Of railway in
the United Kingdom, which cost $2,!
S0O,00G gold -$l65,OOO per mile.
Nearly all the lines are furnished with
double tracks, and on the majority
stee, rails are laid. Tracks of different
railways never cross each other on the
same level, but always use viaducts in
passing one over the other.
Great Caesar! On the 10Th, says the
dispatch, in New York city, the jury |
in the Tweed case brought in a verdict |
of guilty, on all the countsl The de-
tense made no exception to the verdict,
and the jury was discharged. Tweed's
counsel Is attempting to obtain an ar
rest of judgment on the ground Of
want Of jurisdiction of the Court. AS
before remarked, mo other country
ever saw such times!" Boss Tweed
is certainly not in his usual luck.
Why, Stokes discounts Tweed.
The Spanish war vessel, Tornado,
which captured the Vtrgtntus, was

service. After the rebellion she was
sold to the Chilean Government, then
1t war with Spain, bat was captured
by the Spaniards when on her way to
Chile, and has since been in the Span :

sold by the Government to 8 citizen Of
the United States.

CUBA TO BE FREE.-A Washington
telegram of the Goth, says the Admin

Natural Decay-Protect the System.

The human body is machine, and therefore
cannot endure forever; but, like watch or
sewing machine, it will last much longer if
properly regulated and duly repaired, than if
no pains were taken to keep ii in order. The
great object of every one who desires long and
healthy life should be to put his body in con-
dition TO resist the life threatening influences
by which are all more or less surrounded
and no invigorant and corrective at present.
known so effectively answers this purpose
the vitalizing elixir which, under the unpre-
tending name of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
has been for more than twenty years the stan
dard tonic OF America. In crowded cities,
efiuvia inseparable from large populations; in
marshy regions, where the sOggy soil reeks
with miasma; on the prairies and in the for
eSts, where every fall the air is tainted with
halations from rotting weeds and grasses, OF
decomp posing aVeS-in short, I'm every locality
where malaria exists, this powerful vegetable
antidote is urgently needed. Fever and ague
bilious fevers, jaundice, rheumatism, and all
diseases which are generated by infected air
impure water, or sudden changes of tempera-
ture may be averted by strengthening and reg
ulating the system in advance with Hostetter's
Bitters. Autumn is always a season of peril,
especially to weak, susceptible organ izations.
Even the more vigorous are apt to be in some
measure depressed by the humid atmosphere,
loaded with deleterious gases produced by vege-
table decay. The fall is period of the year
when the renovation and regulation of the liv-
ing machine is peculiarly important and the
Bitters should therefore be taken daily at this
critical season. Oct. 2-1m
