A True Friend of Reform.

The Chicago Tribune was about the first
newspaper of prominence in the United
States to cut loose from the leadership of a
corrupt body of men who had obtained con-
troll of the Republican party, and we're drag
ging it Town to the lowest depths of degrade
ton, and destroying the most vital interests
of the people. No doubt it cost the Tribune
a pang to thus virtually cut loose from a party
which it had helped to organize, and of which
it had been one of the boldest and ablest
champions. But it chose to cling to the
principles of the party, rather than to the
party name without it's substance. A terrible
outcry was raised at the time that the Tribune
had apostacized, and dire vengeance was Wis
tied upon it by many Republicans who have
since got their eyes open, aud now realize that
it was only timely leading, where they have
since hastened to follow. The Tribune was
then, and is now, the fast friend of the pro-
ducing classes of this country, and the foe of
corrupt and designing men. Hence it is with
pleasure We call attention to its prospectus in
another column, and commend it to all who
wish to subscribe for an able, honest and fear
less journal that is fully up to the require
ments of the time Wdukegdn QH.) Patriot.

How Indians Climbs Trees,

In South America even the weakest
woman may be, not uncommonly, seer
plucking the fruit at the tree-tops. If
the bark is so smooth and slippery that
they cannot go climbing, they use other
means. They make a hoop of wild
vines, and putting their feet inside,
they use it as a support in climbing.
The negro of the west coast of Africa
makes a larger hoop, round the tree,
and gets inside of it and jerks it up the
trunk with his hands, a little at a time,
drawing up his legs after it. The Ii
hitian boys tie their feet together, four
OF five inches apart, with a piece of
palm bark, and with the aid of this fet-
ter go up the cocoa palms to gather
nuts. The native women in Australia
climb the gum trees after opossoms.
Where the bark is rough they chop
holes with a Ratchet then one throws
about the tree a rope twice as long as
will go around it, puts her hatchet on
her cropped head, and, placing her feet
against the tree and grasping the rope
with her hands, she bitches it up by
jerks, and pulls herself up the enor-
nous trunk almost as fast as a man will
climb a ladder.

HEART DIsEAsE.-Many persons suffer
with heart disease without knowing it
suddenly they drop off, and their friends
are astonished, on a post mortem exam
i%nation, to learn that they died of heart
disease. The heart, like the brain, is
the seat of life-its diseases are of sew
eral characters. The most common are
~valvular disease, fatty degeneration, and
functional arrangement. IF the liver
becomes deranged and digestion is i'm
paired, the heart, through sympathy
and juxtaposition, becomes abnormal.
The following symptoms indicate APP
preaching disease: palpitation, giddi-
ness, faintness, plostration, de-
ranged digestion, vertigo, cold extremi-
ties, ETC., ETC., for which the old school
will administer iron, opium, anthony,
mercury, and many other mineral pois-
ons. Heart disease is a blood disease

MINISTER SICKLEs, it is announced, is about

the report that Captain-General Jovellar and

posed to the carrying out of the protocol. The
American Consulate at Havana is guarded by

Capt. 8urmont, of the lost steamer Vile du
Havre, is not placed in any better position

his conduct. Those of the crew who were
taken off by the Loeb Earn after the collision

the Captain and his Second Mate betook them
selves, after the collision. to the Loeb Earn,
and did nothing to assist in the rescue of the
sailors or passengers....It is officially re-
ported by United States naval officers from
Havana that SO of the Virginius' passengers
were executed.
The French throw the blame for the Vile
