To ALL, particularly invalids, spring is trying
season. Indications of sickness should at once be
attended to. Fatal diseases may be caused by al
lowing the bowels to become corstipated, and the
system to remain in disordered condition until
the disorder has time to develop itself. An ounce
of preventive is worth pound of cure, Is an old
and truthful saying. Therefore, we advise all who
troubled with the complaints now very prevalent
headache, indigestion, disordered liver, want Of
appetite Nausea, feverish skin, to take, without
delay, Schenck's Mandrake Pills. We know Of no
remedy harmless and decisive IN Its action 1t at
strikes at the reot of the disease and produces
healthy tone to the system. People never need
suffer from any disease arising from disordered
condition of the liver If they would take this excel
lent medicine when they feel the first indications
of the malady. Families leaving home for the
summer months should take three or four boxes of
these pills with them. They have an almost in
st. ntaneous effect. They will relieve the patient OF
headache in one or two hours, and will rapidly
cleanse the liver OF surrounding bile, and will effec
tually prevent bilious attack. They are sold by

Not a Republican Endorsement.

The New York Herald inteprets the
recent Republican victories to mean
anything but an endorsement of the
Republican party. There is more in
this than appears at first glance. One
year ago the Republicans were re-
buked with signal defeat in number
Of States. This was an unmistakable
sign that the people had lost confidence
in the Administration party. The
vote few days ago cannot be regarded
as evidence that confidence I'm that or
ganization has been restored. If we
read the result Alright its significance
is that the people are not yet ready to
place implicit confidence in the DEM
Ocratic party. In other words, it
means that full reliance is not placed
in either of the great parties. The
Herald takes the ground that the peo-
pie are ready to abandon both of the
old organizations and endorse new
party provided it could show elements
of purity and vitality worthy the con-
sideration of the masses. The edito-
rial, however, admits that there is
scarcely the shadow of chance for
such party to present itself in time
to control, or even materially affect,
the Presidential contest of next year.
1t might as well have added that the
third parity could notaffect the strug-
gle of the giants within the next five
years. The fight OF next year will be
between the Democrats and Republi-
cans, and there is scarcely doubt but
that GRANT will be the Republican
nominee for President on a platform
embodying three planks-non.inter-
ference with the public school system.
hard money and recognition of the
Cuban belligerents. And it is the
foreshadowing of this platform that
has In part brought about the equal
ization of party strength noted in the
recent election. The two parties are
now nearly equal In strength, and the
result of the Presidential race depends
not so much upon elimination and re-
elimination as upon the pledges each
party will make and the security they
will give for full redemption of those
pledges. Party name has. no more

ALL ABOUT A DEAD MAN.
GuibOrd's Remains are Surrounded by
the Military Great Excitement.

MONTREAL, Canada, Nov. 16th.-
The military have this morning start
ed Oh their march to the cemetery.
They are marching four deep, headed
by their respective bands, led by the
cavalry and field battery, and present
a fine appearance. They are followed
by thousands of citizens, the greater
number of whom are French Canadl-
ans. The streets leading to the ceme-
terry are literally jammed by moving,
surging crowds. The formidable ap-
pearance of the military has awed all
evil-disposed persons, and no trouble
is anticipated.
At this hour 70 A. NJ everything is
quiet in the city. Excited groups can
be seen at the corners, discussing the
probabilities of the day. The day
opens dull and heavy. The fall of
snow last night makes the walking
very disagreeable. Volunteers are
mastering on the Champ de Mars, and
turning out In large numbers. The
hour of the funeral is still unknown to
the public; 10 A. NJ. is likely to be the
time of departure of the remains from
the Protestant cemetery. This will
bring to the Catholic gate about IL A.
NJ. The abandonment of the sarcoph-
agus and taking of the back route
around the mountain for the process
sion is havinga a beneficial effect on the
Catholics. They look upon it as a
compromise, and at this hour no
trouble is apprehended, and three
hours from now the burial of poor Jo-
seph Guibord will no doubt be accom-
plished.
A large number of policemen are
waiting orders. Mr.. Boutre yesterday
obtained protection and an official du-
plicate order of the writ secured on
the former occasion. ~

An ocean homing- bird of great do

found in Iceland, which flies at a speed
of $50 miles an hour, and is able to
find its home over sea and land from
any part of the inhabitable world. A
pair of these birds few days ago
brought dispatches from Paris to a
lonely spot in a wild and rocky part
of Ken, within ten miles of London,
in one and half hours. Press carrier
pigeons took the dispatches on to the
city, the whole distance from Paris to
London by actual parcel mode of con-
veyance being done within one and a
half hours. Ifthe experiments at pre-

THE HERALD office yesterday re-
ceived a visit from Mr.. B. f., LUCE,
who, with his family, lately arrived
from Texas. Mr.. LUCE says his first
information relative to Southern Cali
fOrnia was derived from the Los An
geles HERALD, and that after reading
its accounts of the soil climate and
products of this portion of the State
he concluded tolcome here and make
his home among us. Mr.. LUCE has
travelled about the valley for several
days; he has visited the corn and or
ange regions, and he does us the credit
of saying that though he thought the
HERALp's articles rather florid and
overcolored, while reading them back
in Texas, how that he mas seen for
himself he finds every statement fully
verified. Mr.. LUCE is man of means,
energy and intelligence, and we well
come him to our city and valley. We
hope the HERALD will be the means
of inducing thousands of such men to
seek their homes in Southern Califor-
MIA, and we know that all such who
do come will never regret the step they
have taken.
