Honored and Blessed.

When a board of eminent physicians and
chemists announced the discovery that by COM
bining some well known valuable remedies,
the most wonderful medicine was produced,
which would cure such a wide range OF dis
eases that most all other remedies could be dis.
pensed with, many were sceptical; but proof OF
its merits by actual trial has dispeled all doubt,
and today the discoveries of that great needi-
cine, Hop Bitters, are honored and blessed by

The Natural Ruler of Indians.

DR.. McGillicuddy, the new Indian
Agent at Red Cloud, says he has learned
in his experience with the red men that
a physician can have more influence
with them than anybody else, not ex-
cepting Catholic priests. When they
have once been placed under physi-
clans care; and have received tangible
benefit from it, they have great respect
for him. He succeeded, while with the
Red Cloud Indians, in SO far gaining
their confidence and overcoming their
superstition as to attend their women in
several cases of confinement, which they
will not allow even their medicine men
to do. The salutary effects of proper
medical treatment in these cases did
muchsto give him their friendship. He
opened a hospital for the sick. At first
he could only obtain three inmates, the
Indians having a strong prejudice
against it. The number incl eased,
however, to upward of 200 per month,
treated inside and outside. He pro-
poses to pursue the same course, and
give them the benefit of medical
experience which was largely obtained
in hospital work. He believes he can
soon have a successful hospital in oper-
alton, with nurses from their own num-
ber.-WdShi720tO41 Star.

A Sad Story of SAKE.

The sad statement is made that John
Godfrey SAKE has succumbed to melan-
cholia, and that he is an affecting exam
pie of mental suffering. AS poet and
lecturer Mr.. SAKE has given SO much
pleasure to so many that the fact of. his
Intellectual disorder will excite much
sympathy and regret. Mr.. SAKE first
appeared as poet in the old Kaaicker-
booker Magazine, in 1843. His. first
deep mark was made in poem called
Progress" satire, and since then he
has become well known as a humorous
poet, sketch writer and lecturer. Born
in Franklin county, Vt, in 1916, Mr..
SAKE was admitted to the bar in 1913,
in his 9th year. Not long after he re-
moved to Burlington, VT, and became
editor and owner of the Sentinel,
which he managed with success and
popularity. He was the formal and
fun-loving candidate Of a hopeless mi
nority for Governor for several years in
succession. About fifteen years ago
Mr.. Sake removed to this State, prac-
ticing law in New York and residing in
First place, Brooklyn. Reverses have
overtaken the gentleman of late years,
and painful illnesses have befallen him
and members of his family. He denies
himself to his dearest friends His
gloom is absolute and beyond relief. =.

Life's Duties.


Time and tide wait for no man. The steady
tick, tick, on the dial tells us time is fleeing.
The golden moments come to us freighted with
golden opportunities. Let us grasp them, for
they linger briefly, pass on, and are emphed
into the lap of to- morrow The present only
ia ours. Let us strive to make good use of our
time, and defer not till tomorrow that which
should be done to-day.
Have we found our mission? Christs was
one of love and mercy He went about doing
sick, forgiving the SINFUL lifting up the fallen.
He tells us to do likewise. Do we take heed
and obey the mandate? Do we take the Golden
Rule for our guide Do unto Others" etc. !?
Do we, by little deeds of love, help to chase
away the dark cloudlets from the sky of some
wayworn toiler, thereby enabling him to catch
a glimpse of the blue ether beyond? Or have
we planted thorns in his pathway instead of
roses, chided when we should have encour-
aged, thus wounding the heart instead of heal
ing? We should hesitate to speak of others
faults, and, when we judge, be lenient Let
us pluck the mote from our own eye ere we
speak of the beam in others.
Every life-boa that is launched upon the
ocean of time is not ladea with JOY, nor does it
always float onward as peaceful as the calm of
bright summers eve, but oft it is tossed and
thrown about by storms, high winds and foam
ing pillows, while the stronger gondolas are
ever ready to board them and sink them be-
meath the dark waters of oblivion
Though we may have but one talent, must we
bury it because we cannot hope to aspire to the
dimensions of all oracle? and are obliged to fol-
low in the wake of some who have risen to the
highest peak of fame?
Great oaks from little acorns grow.
Then, though our lot in life be humble,
though friends forsake, let us act the part of
the good Samaritan, and we have fulfilled our
mission. WEEPING WILLOW.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

It has TRANSFERRED that the President
had actually prepared message vetoing the
River and Harbor bill This intention soon
became noised abroad, and he was Immediately

was signed.

appropriation of $250,000 to build National
Museum on the grounds of the Smithsonian
Institute at Washington.
The total number of bills and Joint
resolutions introduced in the lower house of
Congress at it's recent session was 6,S23,
and in the Senate 1,948. A large majority of
these were pending at the hour of adjournment,
and, of course, failed.
It is reported that ex-senator Con-
over, of Florida, is to be appointed Minister to
Central America.
The President has accepted the resig-
nation of United States District Judge Giles, of
Maryland, who has been on the bench since
1854.

letter from the Attorney General of South Caro-
lima announcing the canceling of the indictments
against him in that State. Mr.. Patterson leaves
soon to take an important trust under the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company in Arizona.
The Secretary Of the Treasury has
issued long circular, announcing the issue of

The Ciphers.
MAJORITY REPORT OF THE POTTER COMMITTEE.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March s.
RTs. Secretary of State.

MAJORITY REPORT OF THE POTTER COMMITTEE.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 5.
The report Of the majority of the Potter
Committee upon the cipher dispatches says gen
orally that the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany seem to have exercised due carein respect
to the preservation and privacy of their dis
tain dispatches did not seem to be their
fault. At the same time they could not but
suspect that Orion, President of the company
(since deceased), who was an earnest and active
Republican leader. forwarded the dispatches
in the custody Of the company to the Re
than to the Democratic committee of the
House. He had also shown his bias by allow
ing certain of the dispatches to be withdrawn.
On examination of the Indiana dispatches, in
which Mr.. q. Chandler was asked by Mr.. Tyner
to "appoint two Indian Agents one could see
how very naturally the telegraph officials
should have failed to recognize these most i'm
probable cipher dispatches to have any con-
cealed meaning, but regarded them rather
as corrupt dispatches; that they could
recall them so we'll was a credit to
the efficiency of the company, and suggests
that nothing in the protection of dispatches by
telegraph would be gained by transferring that
business to the Government 1t was notfor the
committee, however, to suggest whether any
legislation was required to prevent private tele-
grams from being purloined or exposed. or for
their production In proper cases, considering
the watchful, competent, and intelligent partisan
custody of dispatches for fourteen months. It
was to be expected that nothing would come to
light not wanted by the parties in charge, and
it would have been too much to expect that any
messages rejecting seriously on the credit of
the Republican party would be found am ing
these bundles.
The translations of the cipher dispatches dis
close negotiations on the part of certain near
friends of Iilden after the election to secure
the electoral votes of the States of South Ce1o-
lima and Florida. These persons seem to 1ave
apprehended that the electoral votes of those
States which they believed to have belonged to
Tilden would be declared for Hayes. and to
have regarded themselves as justified in en-
deavoring to defeat this corrupt and fraudulent
action by submitting to the payment of moneys
which they. were informed the Canvassing
Boards demanded by way of blackmaiL
The committee did not in any way Justify
their action, and considered it gross wrong
But these negotiations we're not authorized by
the National Democratic Committee or any per-
son entitled to speak for them. All the persons
who had been connected with the negotiations,
so far as the committee had secured their testi-
mony, declared that in no, way were they au-
thorized by Tilden, whose particular friends
they were, and Mr.. Tilden had himself volun-
tarily appeared to corroborate that statement

any time attached to the name of Mr.. Hendricks
