Another ElOpement Scandal.
Fort Wayne Telegram

Ex-County Clerk Orlando Russell OF
Paulding, Ohio, has suddenly disappear
ed, leaving behind him beautiful
and charming wife and two children
aged respectively eleven and thirteen
years. He wrote his wife q letter dated
at this city, stating that he had gone
west to remain a year. and perhaps
forever. He left his financial affairs in
in good shape. He had always lived
happily with his family, and bore an
excellent reputation. About the same
time he left married woman Of Paul
ding, known as Ella Clark, also disap-
peared, leaving her husband behind.
As Russeis attentions to this woman
had previouly been a matter of public
gossip, and as she is known to have
come to Fort Wayne, it is supposed
that she Joined Russell here and went
west with him. Her reputation has, it
appears, been tainted before. This scan
dial following so closely upon the disap-
pearance of ex-Sheriff Ferguson, has
produced great sensation at Paulding.

Travelling Comforts for the Poor.

Humanitarians will be reioiced to
learn that arrangements have been
definitely made to furnish railway
sleeping accommodations for the thous-
ands Of emigrants daily transported
across the country toward the free
lands Of the west At the Union Pacific
railroad shops in Omaha, an emigrant
sleeping car is now being used as pat
tern from which to remodel all the en-
igrant cars on that line. The plain, I'M
cushioned seats are so made that they
may be turned into berths, both upper
and lower, something after the Pullman
plan, with the palace part left out.
No bed-clothing is furnished, but the
hardwood framework Is neat, and af-
fords much more comfort at light than
sitting bolt upright or crooking ones
self for sleep in uncomfortable posi-
tioGs. The car is we'll ventilated and
lighted, and has Mushrooms, closets
and water-tanks. No extra charge will
be made for the occupancy of these
second class sleepers. The Central Pa
cilic railroad has already introduced
these cars, and find that they give great
satisfaction.

Yaseline.

A new product made from petroleum
is jelly called "Vaseline," which is OF
the greatest utility in medicine, phar-
macy and for toilet use. Physicians all
over the world have discovered It's great
value In the treatment of wounds, burns.
skin diseases, rheumatism, catarrh and
every ailment where a remedy is need
ed, and in almost every hospital in
America and Europe this substance is
now IN constant use, and is acknowl-
edged not only to be the best treatment,
but also one of the most important re-
cent additions to medicine. 1t is put
up IN bottles by the Cneesbrough Man
ufaeturing Co, of New York, and as
family remedy it is without doubt the
best IN use. LIS healing and pain alay-
ing qualities being superior 20 those of
any known substance, while the speedy
relief it affords for piles and chilblains
IS almost magical. AS al emolient,
Vaseline Is way ahead of anything else,
as it renders the skin smooth, soft and
clear, and our lady friends will find it
not only the best, but perhaps the sole
substance which will really preserve
and restore to the complexion the hues
of youth, making the cheek like velvet
and the skin like satin. The complex
ion powders in common use, are, as 8
rule, injurious to the skin and destruct-
i've of any complexion, while Vaseline
is entirely healthful and beneficial
There is also made "Pomade Vasel.
ine," which is said to be of great benefit
to the hair, keeping it soft and glossy,
preventing and curing dandrutf, and
keeping the scalp healthful and free
from disease, and from those objection
able creatures which sometimes find
dwelling there. Numberless instances
are cited of how by the use of this po-
made thin and failing hair has resumed
a vigorous growth. Both the pure Vas
cline and the pomade are put up in
twenty-five cent bottles and are to be
found at all first class druggists, and we
advise our readers to make trial Of
this wonderful substance, and we think
they will find its claims to merit not in
the least exaggerated.

The Absurdity of the Tariff on Paper.

One Of the best illustrations of the alb
surdity, not to say the atrocity, of the
protective system, is furnished by the
duties on printing paper and the ma
terials employed in its manufacture.
The consumption of printing paper in
this country is always fully up to the
supply. The consumption of no COM
modify has increased more steadily or
been maintained more uniformly. Up
on this uniform and steadily increasing
consumption the paper manufacturing
industry has as steadily grown and
thriven. No branch of manufacturing
industry has ever been more steadily
profitable; has ever been less subject to
periodical depressions, or has stood, up
on the secure basis of its own ever
present and ample market, in less dam
ger Of being depressed by any possible
competition of foreign manufacturers.
There has been no time in three-quar-
tiers ola century when the need of any
protection" against such competition
was realized by any American paper
mill. The duties onpaper and paper-mak-
ing nimaterials, imposedupon the false
plea of protecting American paper mills
against foreign paper mills, have been
simply needless, uncalled for tax on
the increasing diffusion of intelligence
and spread OF knowledge among the
American people. This is the truth,
and the whole truth of the matter.
A man and woman, of Phoenix,
Ulster county, n. Y, decidedly on the
down-hill of life-he was 60 and she
was 65-could wait no longer to be
married, and started for the clergyman's
house in sleigh. On the road they met
another clergyman, and, with rare
and beautiful enthusiasm, requested
him to perform the ceremony on the
spot. They stood up in their igh,
the minister stood up in his, they were
pronounced to be man and wife, and a
pair of risky horses with their sleigh
bells furnished the wedding music.

THE Scranton pa. Republican asserts
that the following story is true: "Mr.
John Merchant came to this country
from England some ten years ago. and
settled in this city. His sister preceded
him some nine years, and until last
Saturday they did not know of each
others whereabouts. yet they have
been both living in Hyde Park during
this time, and have attended the same
church. They spent last Sabbath to-
gether at his residence, and were as
happy couple undoubtedly as could
be found within the city"
