Ten years ago contracted . severe cold,
which brought me very low. I went from
one doctor to another, getting prescriptions
from each, but the medicines they prescrib-
ed seemed to do me no good. kept getting
worse and worse, until at last became 90
weak that II went any distance from my
house it seemed that would never be able
to get back. was in despair, and had IL
most given up all hope of recovery. As Q
last resort went to Strope's Drug Store, in
this city, and asked him If he had any medi.
cine that would help me. he said he had,
and he was 90 confident Of it that he said,
"Here, take this bottle Of DR.. Schenck's Pull
monte Syrup, and If it does you no good you
need not pay for itn took the bottle home
and commenced using 1t, as you directed, and
it worked like magic. By the time it was
gone, ! felt very much better, and SO got
another bottle which completed the cure.
have since used the Pulmonic Syrup in
my family many times with the best results.

Skylarks in America.

English sparrows have long since been ~
much at home in New York as English rabbits
in Australia; although. TO do the chirping
denizen Of our housetops justice he has never
brought down upon the heads of those who
acclimatzed him in the New World the curses
which the colODials at the Antipodes heap on
the unlncky mortal who in an evil hour intro
duced the destructive rodent into'their island
continent. The attempt to acclimatize the
English skylark across the Atlantic has
hitherto failed, but the experiment is being
repeated this year, when, it is to be hoped,
it will meet with greater success. Forty sky
larks, which were taken over to eastern New
York in 1910, succeeded in breeding year
after year till 1860. when the last specimen
disappeared. In 1852 eight skylarks were set
free in Greenwood Cemetery, but. although
a special act was passed for their protection,
they soon became extinct. The present ex-
pertinent is being conducted in New Jersey.
Two hundred English larks were taken over
by the City of Richmond last December;
twenty-five Of the interesting little emigrsnts
died on the voyage: fifty escaped after land
ing TO perish in the bitter cold of an American
winter. -Four days after their arrival only
l03 survived. Since then over . score have
perished. but the remaining eighty are thriv-
ing we'll, and it Il expected that before now
they will have settled like other English
emigrants on American soil.-PaA Nall Ga

business at one time, and during the evening
we were sauntering down Broadway. Dick

make him surprisingly brilliant and reckless.
He was dressed with exquisite taste, and his

and got inside just as Dick went marching
down the middle aisle, hatless, hut erect and
handsome. His appearance and manner at
tracted attention, and there was a laugh fol-
lowed by applause. At this Dick bowed with
all the grace Of Chesterfield. Then there
was more applause, and directly some one in
the circle above threw bouquet towards him,
which fell at his feet.
This elected roar, and the play stopped.
Dick picked up the bouquet, bowed once
more, and then began a little speech which
was actually the finest thing ever heard on
earth. 1t was an apology for his appearance
and compliment to the beautiful women
and brave men he saw around him. When
he got through and sat down the house rang
with cheers. and though no one knew who he
was they recognized instantly that a gentle
man and statesman was before them. "Dick,"
said when we reached the hotel, 81 would

up within me and struggling for utterance.

Mr.. Barrows the privilege Of seeing the

Mr.. Boyton in his cell. During a long
interview he gathered from him the
particulars Of his nationality and other
details Of a private character, to be laid
before the minister. Boyton said that
his father was a naturalized American
citizen when he (Michael) was born.

courtesy and kindness of the governor

which Boyton was arrested. In this
dispatch was also enclosed a long letter
which Boyton had addressed to the
American minister, detailing the cir
cumstances Of his arrest, proclaiming
his innocence of the charge against
him, namely, melting others to commit
murder, and demanding the interven-
tion of the American official in order to
obtain his immediate discharge from

HAS the bottom dropped out of Cali
fornia? the New York Tribune reporter
asked of ex-senator Booth last Friday
at the Fifth Avenue hotel. No, he re-
piled, emphatically; we don't think 80.
OF course when a great source of wealth
like the Comstock lode gives out, and
instead of paying large profits, calls for
assessments, the change is felt in money
circles, but We think the state is in a
prosperous condition. 1t would be still
more so if we could get ships to carry
grain to the market. Since the COM
pletion Of the Pacific rail way ships have
left us1to a very great extent. and we
are unable to get our grain to the mar
ket even by water, by which route it
takes l20 days. Last year we raised in
the Pacific states and Washington ter
ritory one ton of wheat for every man,
woman and child. A large portion of
this crop yet remains in store. Is there
any remedy for this evil 4? Only in the
way of crossing the Isthmus. The
people on the Pacific coast have great
faith in the proposed Nicaragua canal.
They believe it is the best plan, be-
cause it presents no engineering diff
culties that have not been overcome
heretofore. Should it be built it will
enable California to compete with the
western states in the wheat market Of
the world, as we shall then be able to
save 100 days time besides getting
sufficient ships to come to us.

1t is customary in all ~1rst-class
choirs for the male singers to furnish
candy for the lady singers, and the
other day the tenor went to the candy
factory and had a peppermint lozenge
made with about a teaspoonfull of cay

Christmas he took his lozenge to church
and concluded to get ever with the So

hymn was given out in which the So

there was enough pepper left around

EXPERIMENTATION Little Rock, Ark,
to the st. Louis Republican, states that
the negroes Green Harris, Giles Peck,
John Woods and Burt Harris, impli-
Gated in the murder of Miss Matte
Ishmael, near Jonesboro, n few days
ago, have been lynched by a band of
masked men numbering some 200 or
800 men. The lynchers suddenly APP
peared from the woods and surrounded
the house where the negroes were tenn
porarily placed, overpowered the guards,
took the prisoners out and hung them
to trees, and then disappeared as quick
ly and as silently as they gathered. 1t
is claimed that prior to their execution,
the negroes made a full confession, Civ
ing q detailed account of the crime,
alleging that Miss Ishmael was killed
for refusing to disclose the hiding place
OF a large sum OF money which her
father had received a few days before
the tragedy occurred.
