Women and NeMsnapers.

Women are the best subscribers in
the world to newspapers, magazines,
etc. We have been editor now going
On forty-seven years, and we have new
er yet lost singls dollar by female
subscribers. They seem to make it a
point of conscientious duty to pay the
preacher and the printer-two classes
of the community that suffer more by
bad pay (and no pay at all) than all
the rest put together. Whenever we
have wOmaa's name on our book we
know it is just as good for two dollars
as picayune is for ginger cake. Be-
sides, whatever they subscribe for they
read, whether it be good, bad, or in
different If they once subscribe for
paper they are sure to read 1T, upon
the principle we suppose, that IT they
did not their money would be thrown
away-as an old lady, whom we once
knew, for whose sick servant girl the
Doctor had prescribed a dose of oil,
but as the girl would not take the oil,
she took it herself rather than let it be
wasted. Hence, we say, they are the
best readers. For these reasons, we
had, any time in the world, rather
have dozen women on our books
than one man.-Iaka Banner.

Turkish Ontrapes.

The London News of the 23rd ol
June, publishes letter from its Con.
stantinople correspondent, dated June
16, giving details of atrocities COM
mitted in Bulgaria during the insur-
rection, and which still continue, by
the Bashi Bazonks-Turkish irregular
troops. The writer says all movable
property has been plundered, houses
and villages burned, aud old men, wo-
wen and children unfortunately
slaughtered. 1t is estimated that the
province which heretofore yielded to
the government an annual revenue of
81, 900, 900, will not pay one quarter Of
that sum thisy year or for years TO come.
Various estimates place number of
lives sacrificed at from 1900 to 30
600. The correspondent names thirty
seven villages known to have been de-
stroyed. Among the refugees-the
number of whom is very small-there
is not a girl over ten years Of age. In
the village OF Serustetza, in the dis
trict of Phillipopolis, 800 persons are
known to have been killed. This viii
lage consisted of 400 houses, and was
prosperous and peaceful. Every house
has been burned and all the inhabit-
ants killed, except few women and
children who took refuge in Phillo-
and some women who were
carried off by the Bashi Bazouks.
These cruelties have made a great inn
preston at Constantinople. The En-
glish ambassador has interviewed with
the government to put an end to them.

How II Feels and How a Maidstone
Works.

vile, Cedar county, writes 10 the Iowa
+, City Press Of bis misfortune in being
bitten bya mad-dog. and Of his subse.
quent search for a maidstone to cure
the bite. lie says;
| was bitten on Saturday, July !, on
the left wrist by a small dog, which I
did not at the time think was mad,
though l killed it Immediately. / had
no suspicion till the Fourth Of July,
when felt sharp pain start from the
wound and extend to the back Of my
neck and to my face. This would last
but q moment, and return at intervals,
each time getting worse.
Having heard much Of the virtues
of the maidstone, at once made in
quiries for one, and on "Wednesday
evening was told that a gentleman
named Turner Evans, of Iowa City,
had one. AT ii O'Clock that night /
left this place for your city, but owing
to the food in Cedar river did not get
through till noon next day.
We learned that some years ago q
Mr.. Evans had treated some cases in
Iowa City, and by searching old news
paper files it was ascertained that his
residence then was Paris, Linn eounty.
kilograms were sent to Marion aud
Center Point, and was fnall y put on
the track to Paris, where / found
Messrs. Evans Il Co., who have the
maidstone. This was on Saturday,
eight days after the bite. About d.
N. that day the stone was applied.
The first application OF the stone
proved that the dog which bit me was
mad, and that my system was becom-
ing lmpregnated with the virus.
The stone held on twenty-five min
utes the first time. when il was full,
changed color and fell off. Another
scarihcation was made and il was
again applied, and so on till il had
been applied 73 time, holding on each
time from twenty-five minutes 10 one
hour, until at last repeated efforts
showed the remedy had done its work,
for it would adhere no more, which
is indicated by its failure 10 stick, and
its change in color from dark brown
to deep green color.
AT the first application il was very
painful, but grew less 40 each time
until the last
The owners of the stone, Messrs.
Evans Il Fleming, live near Paris,
Linn county, and in the past twenty
five years have saved many persons
from the horrible death by hydrOpho-
bia, and have in the same time rescued
thousands of dollars worth Of stock
from loss by the same caiise.
If any one says there Is no virtue ia
the maidstone, let him he referred 10
me and hundreds Of others for proof
that there Is.

Railway Progress In Europe and
America.

The curious correspondence Of rail-
way progress in Europe and America,
says the Pail Mall Gazette may be H.
lustrated by the following comparison,
which includes under the latter head
the whole Of the railway systems of
the North and South American coun-
tries. In 1855, the mileage Of the Eu-
ropean systems, was n ,144, and Of the
American systems, 20,l55 miles. Ia
1860 they we're respectively 32,03l and
80, ,539, America thus getting slightly
in advance. In 1S65-the civil war
having retarded American progress
the European mileage was 45, ,695 aud
the American 1854. But in 1870
they were respective "a, ,4l8 aud 80, Az;
aud in 1875 America had yet further re.
covered lost ground, for the railway
mileage of Europe was only 8S,O07
miles, against S3,9l0 miles Of Ameri-
can rail. The American extensions
during the last decade have been in
fact greater than the European, the
former amounting to 45,075 miles and
the latter TO Al 81 miles.

We give below an extract from the
speech of Maj. VIM. j. Sykes, at Paris
in 1874, in reply TO Col. j. w. Hawk
ins, an ex-Federal Colonel and Re-
publican member Of Congress, since
the war. It is as applicable now as
then, aud shows that the Reputation
movement in Tennessee is aimed at the
Democratic party:
what can Colonel Hawkins mean
by advocating non-payment or re-
pudiation of the National debt2 lie
knows il cannot be done. IL is made
a part of the Constitution, aud all
parties in this country have agreed to
abide by it. / am glad no Democrat
has advanced such a doctrine. lt
would, In him, be called Bourbon De-
mocracy or rebellion. Is this n scheme
to get Democrats in the South 10 sane
ton reputation, State or National,
and thereby perpetrate the Radical
dynasty2 IF there is anything upon
which the North is united it Is upon
the payment of the National debt, and
If Southern Democrats can be induced
to countenance the doctrine Of repudi-
alton it destroys the only party in the
North, to which we can look for any
relief. Let this doctrine be introduced
20 divide tho Democratic party of Tenn
essee, and then read your fate in the
history of South Carolina, Louisiana,
Mississippi and Arkansas. BE not
deluded with the syren song Of re-
pudiation, it only lulls to destroy.
Col. Hawkins knows it cannot be re-
pudiated, all his remarks are out of
place, unless he wishes TO lead you
astray and sink you in a Serbonian
bog. The National debt il terrible
incubus, but how can we get clear Of
it. Let us pay what we can in cur
rency let us change our banking laws,
and let US reduce the tariff which is
drawing the hearts blood Of the coun-
try. These are our true remedies, but
this cry of Reputation, which every
man Of sense knows to be impractical
BILE, will defeat our practicable re-
medies."

From the Catholic Columbian of the 18th inst
we learn that Col. wen T. Turney, for many
years stationed in this city with the United
States forces, died in Columbus, Ohio, on the
10Th of February. short time before the
close of the war he was sent here as Paymaste8,
with the rank of Major, remaining till 1869,
and making hosts of friends. Col. Turney was
born in Ohio, in 1896, and was printer by
trade. The Columbian says:
Colonel Turnsy wee man highly esteemed
by all with whom he came into contact and
every where duty called him be made warm
friends, by his open hearted conduct and genial
qualities. AS member of St. Patrick's choir
for many years, and finally of the Cathedral
choir, and y Jealous supporter of st. Patrick's
Total Abstinence Society, he won friends who
will deeply mourn his loss, but who will breathe
many a fervent prayer for the repose of his
soul.

Taxing Church Property.
AN ACT AIMED AT ROMAN CATHOLICS NOW
OFFENSIVE TO PRorEsTANrs.

A bill has passed the lower House of the
Rhode Island Assembly taxing all church
property except the buildings. 1t was pass
ed under the impulse of a speech by one of
its Nom bers, in which he warned his fellow
legislators that the Roman Catholic Church
was buying valuable property in the State,
and that the Supreme Pontiff would even
tually obtain control of the little Common
wealth unless they promptly checked him
by heavy assessments. Now that the bill
has passed the House, all sects are joining
in loud protest against 1t, and the Provi-
dence Journal, which favored the measure
a year ago, publishes long leaders against
it. Senator Anthony, the editor of the
