most exquisite taste could suggest.

charms of mind and person were such
that to see her was to remember, and

not left her chair, victim OF suffering

fellows and an honor to her who bore

more piteous appeal to heaven if her

CHICAGO, May 16.-In the trial OF
Daniel Mum, for whisky frauds to-
day, Ex-Superintendant of Police
Rehm, one of the conspirators who
has turned States evidence, said that
he had acted as disbursing agent for
the whisky ring since 1872. He pro-
tests that he never kept any of the
bribe money he received, but paid it
out to Congressman G. B. FarwelPs
friends and others for electioneering
purposes, but says that Farwell did
not know where the money came
from. He testified that he paid Col
lector Irlin, since dead, $4,000, col
lector Wa dsworth $1,000, Special
Agent Bridges $4,000, Ex-Congress-
man J. d. Ward $4,000, and Ex-Su-
pervisor Mum a considerable sum.
He paid $4,000 to help secure Far
WELLS election, and claims to have
received in all about $52, 1000. His tes-
timony is very damaging 1t is be-
lieved to the defendant Mum, and
also to Ward and Wordsworth, who
were supposed to be comparatively
innocent.

A Widely Applicable Remedy.

Few remedies are applicable to such wide
range of disorders as Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, and this not because 1t has special
properties adapted to the cure of each-such
pretence would be manifestly absurd-but
on account of its wonderfully improving ef-
feet upon the general tone of the system, and
its Alternative action upon the organs of nutri-
tion, secretion and discharge. Besides Its
well known properties as remedy for inter-
mittent and remittent fevers, dyspepsia, con-
stipaiion, torpidity of the liver, general debil-
ity, urinary and uterine difficulties, 1t invali-
ably proves to be highly serviceable in over
coming anemia, ,hypochrondria rheumatism
insomnia, and many other disorders and dis
abilities originating in poverty or impurity OF
the blood, nervous weakness or over-excite-
ment, or an imperfect performance of the
physical functions

manent cure of consumption, bronchitis, Ca
tarrh, asthma, and all throat and lung affec-
tions, also positive and radical cure for ner-
vous debility and all nervous complaints, af-
ter having thoroughly tested its wonderful
curative powers in thousands of cases, feels it
his duty to make it known to his suffering
fellows. Actua;ed by this motive, and a con-

California Revenue Frauds.
WASHINGTON, 16th.-The final re-
port of Supervisor Hawley, relative to
the operation of the Internal Revenue
force, in California, has been received
by Commissioner Pratt. The report
is accompanied by the resignation of
Mr.. Hawley, who is now on the way
to his home in the East No appoint
cy unless Congress waits to abolish
the office ofSupervisor. Mr.. Hawley's
report is full of important information
and shows the government has in the
last 5 years been defrauded of nearly
$2,000,000 by Illicit dlstillers in Cali
fornia. When the investigations first
started in San Francisco a strong pres
sure was brought to bear on the Pres
ident and Bristow, by the most prom
iDent politicians to have them stop
ped, but without success.
The Centennial.
PHILADELPHIA, 16th.-At the Gen.

was bad and the attendance at the ex-

The committee meets this afternoon
and owing to the number of protests
against closing the buildings on SUM-
day it Is likely that the subject will be
again discussed. Such progress has
been made within the past few days
that it is stated that within week
the entire collection of exhibits will
be almost completed. Places of am
usements and resort have opened,
among them the Tropical garden SIM
liar to Gilmore's of New York, but

NEW ORLEANS, 16th.-A special to
the Republican says this is what we
consider reliable as to the result Of
Saturday nights doings. Eight me-
groes were shot dead, four hanged and
about 20 wounded No whites were
killed. A person just from the scene
reported 80 blacks killed, but this Is
considered exaggerated. Ten colored
men were reported held as prisoners.
Their fate is uncertain but the suppO-

number of negroes is not ascertained.
