Is NERVOUSNESS A YANKEE
NOTION?
A New Theory by a New
Doctor.
He Claims that Nervousness is an
American Imaginative
Disease,
And Originated in the United States
Within the Last Fifty Years,
Let the Doctors Say Whether that
Statement will Stand the Test.
DIR. Benson Says II Will Not, Thn
Nervousness is as Old as
Mankind,

AND THAT NERVOUSNESS HAS EX-
listed EVER SINCE NERVOUS sYs-
TENS WE'RE CREATED, NERV-
BUSINESS EXISTS UNDER MANY
NAMES. AND APPEARS IN MANY
FORMS OR TYPES.
AS Sick Headache Nervous Headache, Neu-
ralgia, Sleeplessness, Paralysis, Hysteria, Mel
ancholy, St. Vitus' Dance, Asthma, &c. But
all of these different forms are brought about
by some present exciting cause. But no ner-
vous system is subject to these diseases unless
the nerve-fuid is in an impoverished condi-
ton, or suffering from an irritable state or con-
dition, and can only be cured by remedy
that enriches the nerve-fluid and allays ner-
vous irritation; and this is absolutely accom-
plished by DIR. BENSON'S CELERY AND
CHAMOMILE PILLS. They effectually
remove the causes of all nervous diseases, and
the natural result is cure--a complete and
permanent cure.
DIR. c. w. BENSON'S CELERY AND
CHAMOMILE PILLS are prepared expressly
to cure Headaches, Neuralgia and Nervous
ness, and will cure any case, no matter how
obstinate it may be, of either sick, nervous or
dyspeptic headache or neuralgia, nervousness
or sleeplessness. Price 80 cents box, sent
post free to any address, or may be ordered
through any druggist.

An Enormous Plantation.


We notice in the press an account OF great
farm in Dakota Territory containing thrty-slx
thousand acres, owned by one man, where hundreds
of reaping machines are now at work cutting wheat
All this sounds like progress, development I'm
provement in the great Northwest, but it would be
far peasanter reading to learn OF one Thousand men
owning each thirysix acres and living IN neat itle
cottages with their families being engaged in cut
ting their wheat Thanks, however to our bsnih
cent laws this immense tract of land cannot be
entailed in the hands of any arstocratic sorig OF
nobility, as in Europe In less than half acentury
here will probably be hundreds of farmers owning
nd cultivating it. The effect OF the laBdlord and
enant system is well exhibited in Scotland and
reland where few nobemen--we mean patent
ioblemen, they hold the Queens patent therefor
not the Almighty three-fourtls OF the land.
God forbid such system ever should be fastened
on this country.
The National tribune., 1880-08-01
Educate Soldiers Orphans.

The war closed fifteen years ago and hundreds of
heroic soldiers passed to the7 silent land leaving
little children of not more than two years of age
These, doubtless, have had, or at least many of
them, severe experience ''since father died They
have been compelled to work. perhaps, with scarce
any intermission, for their board and clothing and
now that they are on the borders of manhood and
womanhood often they mourn that they have had
opportunity of attending school. Now, here is a
field for some benevolent men of wealth and patr-
otsm to labor in--To take young men and young
women, children of dead soldiers and give them say
taUo gears OF good English education. How inf
nitely more praseworthy and sensible would be this
method of spending money than bestowing hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars to endow professor
ships in some high toned college to study abstruse
questions which if solved would result in no prac-
tical value to man To-day, there wealthy prac-
tical men in all parts of the Northern, Middle and
Western States who could initiate this work and
push it on individually or collectively to glorious
success. Think of the blessings that would attend
work Of this kind. There would be three bless
ings The blessing of the dead Gf the spirit still
lives and understands proceedings on earthly, the
blessing of the orphan, and the blessing of the
Nation.

The Equalization Bounty Bill.
rnE nurY or soLp1ERs.

On another page we publish list of the ayes and
nays, on the passage of the Equalization Bounty
Bill by request of correspondent. In our last num-
Der we presented the able incontrovertbe argument
of the late Senator Morton of Indiana in the Senate
this question in which he clearly proves that this
debt due soldiers is as much an obligation to pay,
on the part of the Government as any of its bonds.
Such being an absolute FACT and not a THEORY,
soldiers should keep in view the great Importance
of having members of Congress, both i'm the SEN
ate and House, who are of the opinion expressed by
Senator Morton. This Equalization Bounty ques-
ton must be kept prominently before Congress and
the country, aud the more it is considered the
clearly it will be seen that the soldier is asking
right and not gift. Let every soldier who is q
subscriber or reader of this paper and who will be
benefited by the passage of this BILL make himselfa
committee of one to talk this matter up, to present
it in its true light. When the whole question is
well understood we believe it will be endorsed by
every citizen, who desires that justice should be
done the soldier In few months Congress will
again assemble and then, we think, through con-
certed action the part of the soldiers this great
and long deferred measure of justice viii become
law. Before, however, it does assemble let there
be an awakening of public interest the subject,
at soldiers reunions and through communications
in the press. Such action will convince member
of Congress- that soldiers in earnest about this
matter and want an honest debt settled without any
longer delay

National Associated Press to the Star
SAN Francisco, April 2S.-The Coroner's
inquest develops the fact that the whole
front OF De Youngs face was stained with
powder grains, confirming the belief OF
many that the first shot was fatal one
and accounting for the fact that no word
was uttered, the bullet having traversed
the arch of the mouth, cut away the palate
and lodged in the inner jugular vein. The
doctors, however, say it was he fourth shot
that struck him. Tie jury has not yet rem
dered a verdict, but young Kalloch is fully
identified as the man who did the shooting.
Neither the prisoner nor De Young's
brother was at the inquest, which some at
tribute to the caution of the authorities.
Mayor Kalloch was riding in hack yes
terday with two Sand Lotters ON the front
seat with rifles A dozen deputies of the
Sheriff went to the City Hall with the
Mayor last night and occupied seats near
the Mayors chair in the room of the Su-
pervisors while he presided. The display of
weapons is becoming offensive, but there is
no ordinance except deadly weapons con-
cealed. TO prevent parades of Sand Lot
companies or guards of armed men the
Supervisors are now preparing an ordin-
