MiddIe-Aged Men.

There are many at the age Of thirty to sixty
who are troubled with too frequent ovacua-
ton of the BLADDER, OF ten accompanied by 4
slight smarting or burning sensation and a
weakening of the system in a manner the
patient cannot account for. On examining
the urinary deposits ropy sediment viii
of albumen will appear or the color will be
of thin milkish hue, again changing to a
dark and torpid appearance. There are many
men who die of this difficulty, ignorant of
the cause, which is the second stage of semi
nal weakness. DR.. S. will guarantee perfect
cure in all such cases, and healthy restoror-

the supREME COURT.

The Supreme Court of the United
States adjourned recently, and its sew
eral members have returned to circuit
duty. How to distribute the work of
nine Judges among seven men has been
the task imposed upon Chief Justice
Waite by the inability of Justice Clifford
to perform his duties, and by the vacancy
which Stanley Matthews lacks the per-
mission Of the Senate to fiji. In appor-
tioning the work, Chief Justice Waite
sends Justice Hunt back to this circuit,
the Second, although his condition is
such that he is not able to perform its
duties. Judge Bradley is to do double
duty, having the Third and Sixth Cir
cults, including Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey, Delaware, Ohio, Michigan, Ken
lucky and Tennessee. Judge Harlan also
serves two circuits, the First and the
Seventh, including Indiana, Illinois,
Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Maine, New
Hampshire and Rhode Island. Of course
they will be unable to hear half the cases
that should be heard during the year..
Justice Field returns to the Pacific States,
Justice Miller to the States between the
Mississippi and the Rocky Mountains,
Justice Wood to the Gulf States, and
Chief Justice Waite attends to the bust
ness of the Southern and Atlantic States.

DRINKS IN MASSACHUSETTS.

The largest number of arrests for

93l in 1874, the last year of prohibition
of liquor selling; the largest number of
convictions for the same offense was 24,-
1879 in 1875, which was the first year Of

brought into the Courts during ten years
for o~ffenses under the laws regulating
liquor traffic was So, PAT, of which AZ, 936
were under the prohibitory law. Under
the present law the number Of liquor
saloons is enormous, amounting lin Suf-

SPEECH.

Roscoe has at last delivered himself
of that long-threatened speech the
greatest effort Of his life" as the eastern
press has been calling it. The trouble
with the wires leaves us without a synop-
sis of the effort, though we are told that
it made a deep impression and some
friends for the Senator. We infer that it
was delivered before the Republican eau
Gus. After all it seems highly probable
that the President is destined to achieve
a signal victory over the New York Sena-
tor by the triumphant confirmation of
Robertson. If he does, he may con-
fidently expect relentless war from the
New York stalwarts during the re-
mainder of his administration. In any
view of the case, this rumpus in the Rad
ical camp must prove beneficial to the
Democratic party. To the Democrats it
matters but little whether the President
or Conkling comes off the victor, SO long
as there is a row.

BUFFALO HIDES.

One of General Tecumseh Sherman's
ideas on the subject of Indian campaign
ing was to allow the troops to kill all the
buffaloes, as then the so-called hostile In
dams could not support themselves by
the chase and would be compelled to
come in and draw ~rations. There is little
need, however, of resorting to this plan, it
would appear, since in Miles City, Mon
tana, alone, during the past Autumn and
Winter $4,000 buffalo hides were sold.
The animals. of course. were mostly
killed for their hides and not as food.
The buffaloes will disappear fast enough
under this process, and then there will
be no lamentation hat they are gone.

Take Effect June 1.

Especial 10 tne oENllNhL.I
SAN Francisco, May 11.-At a meeting
OF the Railroad Commissioners to-day the
report Of yesterday was adopted. Beer
stecher moved that the revised schedule
go into effect June /, and in case n rates
therein prove to be higher han those now
in force, the latter shall stand until changed

ton of rates between Los Angeles and San

tween Red Bluff and San Francisco, and
that for other points, such as Tehachepi
and San Francisco, the reduction shall be
20 per cent, or equal to the average reduc-
tion on the Central Pacific Oregon division.
COMMISSIONS Beerstecher thought no diff
ference had been made in the reduction
between the northern and southern parts
Of the State, and opposed the amendment,
which was rejected.

A Healthy Question.

EDS. TRlBCNE:-We were inform
ed few days since that a threat was
made by prominent citizen against
the personal safety Of one OF tho
members Of our city board Of health,
which sayors OF the earlier days Of
lawlessness and camp rutiianism.
What raised the choler OF said citi-
zen it appears is because said mem
ber of the health board expressed
his determination OF exerting his
utmost, IN league with the other
members OF the board, to rid the
city Of the many abuses affecting the
public health, which our city has
been subject to for years past, but
which, IN some manner, touches the
interest Of said citizen. Such talk
is not nice for n public man, aud
made, 100, in opposition to measures
for the public good, Cleanliness, it
is said, is next to Godliness, and II
so, Mineral Point is woelully far
from the winning post.
There exist III our midst to-day
breweries Of malaria and distilleries
Of plague sending forth germs Of
sickness and disease, which attack
as ia our own homes, tearing from
us ruthlessIy our dearest loved ones
and in the past has left Us without
a remedy save in vainly appealing
for public measures to remove the
cause Of the evil Now live board
of health is granted Us, we should
individually and collectively cooper
ate with them in the faithful dis
charge Of their duties, and not leave
a stone unturned until ,very nui-
sancc is removed and measures es-
tabliahed to secure tho public health
against the attacks Of those deadly
agencies.

HORSE HooKlNG.--A daring piece
of horse stealing was performed on
Sunday, and from what we can CLEAN
the circumstances are about so: Last
week a young fellow named Perry
Austin, engaged bis services 70 Mr..
McCarvill, farmer living southwest
Of here. lie formed acquaintance
with the sons of Mr.. lohn Collins, q
near neigbbor, oad On Sunday got
one of them, (Willie), to furnish a
team, and Austin was TO 60 the buggy
for trip to Dodgeville When at
Dodgeville Austin asked permission
to take the team to go to his broth
er's, about mile and half out, to
get some extra clothing, which
privilege was granted. Not re-
turning in due time, young Collins
repaired to the brothers place, and
the brother said he had been there
and gone, at the sAme time intimat-
ing that, as his brother Perry
was not to be trusted, he might
have ait out" with the team.
This proved too true. About .
o'clock that evening be was seen
passing through Ridgeway, which
thus far is the last account heard OF
him. Officers are in pursuit, and we
trust he will soon he overhauled and
justice meted out TO him. The horses
are matched iron grays, and quite
valuable. The buggy was hired at
Keeler & Prideaux's livery. What
is remarkable is the fact that Austin
has been out Of the reform school
only few months, where he served
a term for horse stealing when about
