DELAYS ARE DANGER0Us.-If this axiom
is true respecting the ordinary affairs of life,
still more obviously is it so asregards the eX-
igencies of approaching disease. Unques-
tionably Yet how many neglect to practi-
cally recognize this plain truth when health
is in the balance. Of the many premonito-
ry symptoms of disease a hacking cough is
the most prophetic of peril Arrest it at the
outset with Dr. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cor
dial, and so avoid Consumption, Bronchitis.
Inflammation of the Lungs, Coughs, Colds,
and, indeed, all Affections of the Respiratory
Organs are entirely cured by this sovereign
remedy, which also eradicates Dyspepsia,
Gravel, Piles, Nervous Debility, Torpidity of
the Liver, Urinary Difficulties, Constipation,
Palpitation Of the Heart, Scrofulous Affec
tions, and the infrmaties peculiar to the
gentler sex. This cordial derives its virtues
from the vegetable kingdom, and is infinite
ly to be preferred, both on account of its
superior efficacy and freedom from nauseous
and injurious properties to the official drugs
so often administered with no other effect
than to offend the palate and disorder the
stomach The Pine Tree Tar Cordial can
always be relied on to do what is claimed
for it, Sold by all druggists. Principal

the house of Mr. Brundage, where a mock
marriage was performed. The pair selected

LINES ON THE DEATH OF MARTHA MANNERING
Ought we to weep DER Martha's tomb?
For her. Earth had few joys but gloom
She'd bid us not; if she was here.
For in Heaven, she knows no tear.
She believed her Lord had died!
That for her, He was crucfed
That He had lain in JOseph's tomb
To wait the resurrection morn
Then lay her away gently:
And speak of her kindly
For God called her in love,
We trust to mansions above. S

THE DANGEROUS ELEMENT AT WORK IN
SAN FRANCIsCo.-For several weeks past
series of so called workingmen's meetings
have been held in the open air at various
noints in San Francisco, at which speakers
have INDUCED in the most violent and in
cendiarv harangues, threatening the peace
of the community and the lives and
nronerty of number of prominent citizens
bv name. No attempt has been made to
arrest the speakers owing to the disinclina-
tion of the authorities to make martyrs of
them. The press has also been silent until
within a few days, when the principal
Journals sounded alarm at the impetus
which the disorderly movement Is gaining
and are now calling loudly for prompt
action on the part of the authorities. The
Chinese have already taken the alarm and
addressed communications to the mayor
calling his attention to threats which these
demagogues have made against them, and
asking protection. Many cool-headed
citizens consider the situation liable to
become critical unless such action is taken
as will efectually stamp out the riotous
conduct. 1t is not considered that the
workingmen of the city as body are in
sympathy with the movement, but that it
is supported mainly by the dangerous clas-
ses and those who have become desperate
by the pressure of prevailing hard times.

HORRIBLE DOMESTIC TRAGEDIEs.-Near
Wilton, Wis, Thursday night, horrible
affair occurred. Mrs. VIM. Van Voorhees,,
a young woman with three children and
about to become a mother again, had, after
living unhappily, been deserted by her
husband. She frequently spoke of suicide
to neighbors. About 9 o'clock Thursday
night her dwelling was discovered to be in
flames When the neighbors burst into the
house they found the mother nearly
naked. lying face down in the bed with
her two youngest children in similar posi-
ton by her side, all dead They were
partly burned, and the blazing rafters above
were falling on them. The body of the
oldest, aged 10, was found behind the door,
burned to crisp. 1t is supposed the
mother poisoned herself and the children,
and that life was extinct before the flames
reached them.
The wife of Stephen May, Of Mechanics
Vile, n. Y, stole out OF her house Friday
night while the husband was sleeping, and
taking with her four Of her children, aged
9, 6, and l! years, threw them into the
deep and swift running creek in the rear
of the premises, and jumped in herself
The oldest child managed to reach the
shore and gave the alarm, and the mother
and one child were rescued. The bodies of
the two others were found an hour after
