OLD HUMBUGs DIsCARDED.-Than
heaven, the old-school practice is pass
ing away. Ipecac, aloes, calomel, blist-
ering, the lancet, and (worse than all, }
medicated rum, have given place to a
new remedy, which bids fair to become
the universal medicine of mankind.
Vinegar Bitters is that remedy. 1t is
destined to take precedence of all other
curatives now before the world. The
pharmacopoeia and conspectus of the
regular faculty contain nothing that will
compare with it. Every day hundreds
of the sick are emancipating them
selves from systems of treatment which
entail great expense and do no good,
and are flying to this cheap and abso-
lutely certain means of relief. Dys-
pepsia, rheumatism, liver complaint,
periodic fevers, sick headache, kidney
diseases, constipation, nervous affection
and III short all maladies, acute or
chronic, which do not involve the ire
parable injury of some vital organ, are
cured by this pure inalcoholic vegeta-
BILE restorative.

MIND AND BRAINS. The brains CT
idiots have usually been found quite
small, often less than half the ordinary
weight, and in some instances less than
fourth. But in list of crania con-
tanned in recent work by DR.. Flint,
one idiot is shown to have brain that
weighed 81 ounces two others had
brains weighing little more than As
ounces; the brain of another, "of the
lowest degree of intelligence" 1856,
and that of one "below the condition of
a BRUTE" 44.3, or less than four ounces
below the normal weight of the human
brain. The cranial cavity was measured
by Morton in 613 instances; the larg-
est, ia cubic inches, was that of Ger
man; the smallest, that of an Austria.

Killing Pawpaws.

On our warm, rich soils this shrub
has been source of constant trouble,
especially In pastures. / have heard so
many of our farmers complain of the
great amount of labor required to keep
it down in woodland pastures, and have
myself found it so troublesome that I
feel like giving all those who don't
know how to kill them the benefit of
my experience. Last summer farmer
told me if I would cut them down three
years in succession in August. that it
would kill them effectually. If he had
said the dark of the moon in August,
L should have doubted the whole thing.
But have always been in the habit of
deadening where intended to clear in
August, and was partially convert to
his theory, only pawpaws are such in
veterate sprouters even when grubbed,
that / had come to the belief that there
was no way getting rid of them. I had
always been in the habit of clearing up
pastures in the winter and spring when
there was not rush of work, and had
a pasture that had a great many paw
paws that had to be cut down in the
winter and spring of 1871. Last spring
and summer they had sprouted up from
three to six feet high. In August, cut
them near the ground with bush
scythe; and now, though this spring
and summer has been unusually wet and
favorable to the growth of sprouts, few,
if any, of these have sprouted over foot
high, while many of them are killed
outright. From present appearances,
the three years will not be needed to
kill them. I have examined where l
deadened last August for pasture, where
there were great many pawpaws from
two to five inches in diameter, and, with
scarcely an exception, they are dead
past ever sprouting. 1 read statement
of farmer who said that rails made
from timber cut in August would last as
long again, said that in year or two
the bark would slip off and the sap
would be as firm as the heart. I tried
it and found the statement correct, and
have practiced it till I almost think I
can tell a rail made then on any body's
fence. And have always noticed that
in my deadenings, which generally
wound up three years after, that even the
twigs of large oaks deadened three years
before in August were still as round and
tough as could be. I am so we'll salts
fed that this is the proper time for cut
ting timber to last that with me it is
not a debatable question. Rural

No Senator.

1t is the opinion ofthe Phoebe Record
that the California Legislature will
not elect a United States Senator this
Winter. The conclusion is based upon
the almost equal strength of the three
political parties represented in that
body, and the improbability of a COM
promise on a satisfactory candidate.
The fact that the successful man,
whoever he might be, would
not take his seat until December, 1915,
il also alluded to as a reason for non
action. But then what is to become Of
the law of Congress governing the
election of United States Senators in
all of the States of the Union? That
law c%onvenes the two Houses
OF the Legislature in joint session at a
certain specified time, and requires
that, in the event of no choice, the
balloting shall be continued at least
once a day throughout the session.
The idea advanced by the Record
involves a bigger farce than the
Legislature of the Golden State is
likely to enact.

within the limits Of either California or
Oregon would not bar the State iuFis-
diction until after its cession by those
States, and would have. no retractive
effect for crimes committed within the
limits OF such reservation. 1t is doubt
ful, under Justice Miller's decision in
the Kansas reservation cases, whether
the State Jurisdiction would prevail.
The murders of the citizens were COM
mitted beyond the limits of any reserva-
tion, aud within the jurisdiction Of the
two States; and, of course, anterior to
any arrangement with the Modocs. I
do not question the right or power of the
general government to make any ar
rangement that may be thought proper,
but / think they should make such as to
secure permanent peace, together with
liberal and just treatment Of the In
dians. In my judgment permanent
peace cannot be secured, if they are
allowed TO remain in this immedi-
ate neighborhOod. The MOdocs are now
sensible Of the fact that they cannot live
in peace on Lost river, and have aban-
dOned their claim to it, but wish to be
left in the lava bed. This means Ii
cense to plumber and stronghold to re-
treat TO, and was refused. Their last
proposition is 10 come IN and have an
opportunity Of looking for new camp
not far away, and if they are sincere in
this the trouble will be soon ended, but
there has been 50 much vaeillation and
duplicity in their talks that have hesi-
tated about reporting until some definite
result was attained. All movement Of
troops has been made deliberately and
cautiously, so as to avoid collision and
to impress the Indians that we have no
unfriendly intent. Thus far we have
succeeded very well, but their conduct
has given so much reason TO apprehend
that they are only trying to gain time
that have organized a party of scouts
to operate with troops if they should go
to the mountains or renew hostilities.

A YanthfuI Fratricitla.

CHICAGO, April ll-At the Holland
settlement near this city,a German fam
lily named Alders last night got into a
difficulty, resulting in the murder of the
younger son by the elder. The fratri-
eide is in Jail here, and Coroner Steph-
ems has gone to hold an inquest.
The details of the killing of Henry
Alders by his brother Antonio, at the
Holland settlement, IN this county, last
night, show that the brothers, aged re-
spectively nineteen and eighteen years,
came home from their work together,
and after supper engaged in a friendly
trial OF strength in wrestling. Henry,
the elder of the two, threw Antonio sew
er6l times, and bantered him upon the
fact in goOd-natured way, but Antonio
retOrting sharply, finally struck him in
the face. The two then clenched, but
were separated by their parents, the
father holding Henry, aud the mother
attempting to control Antonio. This
she was unable to DO, however. and the
infuriated young man, breaking from
her grasp, drew long, sharp knife and
rushing upon his brother, plunged the
knife to the hilt in his breast. Henry
fell back into his fathers arms, and died
about two hours after receiving the
wound. The murderer made no attempt
t. escape ,,and was shortly after taken in
charge by a constable and was this
morning brought to Jail. He appears
to be overwhelmed with grief and re-
morse for his mad act.
