FACTS.

Those contemplating a trip westward
will certainly do we'll to carefully con.
suit the time tables Of the Baltimore and
Ohio road. Its celebrated fast trains,
its sure connections, and rates always as
low as the lowest, make it beyond all
controversy the best line west. Colo
nists are carried in first class cars on fast
trains, and every possible care is taken
to insure aomfort and convenience.
Trains run through without change Of
cars to Chicago, where direct connection
is made with al leading lines to the
west, northwest and southwest, making
but single change of cars to Iowa,
Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota,
etc. No other line can offer such advan-
tages as the Baltimore and Ohio.-Ils
costs but very little time and trouble
to learn this, and in the end may lead
to tie saving of much Of both as well as
money. Above all things do not pur-
chase tickets before having talk or re-
ceiving letter from one of the B. & q.
Agents. A letter addressed to W. T.
Reppert, Columbus, Ohio; to j T. Lane,
Wheeling, W. Va, to J. A. Webb. Fos-
toria, Ohio; to T. A. Lee GAINESVILLE

How to Save.

All men and women who work hard
with mind or body are subject 10 peri
odical attacks OF biliousness which may
end in disorde kidnevs or liver and
dangerous illness. A so ct. or 81.00
bottle of Parker's Ginger Tonic will
keep these organs active, and by pre-
venting the attack save you much SICK
ness, loss Of time and great expense
Many families are kept in perfect health
by using the Tonic when Spring or Fall

means danger.-Detroit Press. See

No Good preaching.

No man can do good job of work,
preach a good sermon, try a law suit
well, doctor a patient, or write good
article when he feels miserable and dull,
with sluggish brain and unsteady nerves,
and none should make the attempt in
such condition when it can be so easily

THE LIVER AS AN ORGAN.

From the Detroit Free Press.

From the Detroit Free Press.
DR.. Bliss and his contemporaries who
have been trying to make the President
believe that if the bullet struck his liver,
he will have a close shave Of it, know
very little about that organ, or else they
nave entered into conspiracy to scare
him TO death Right here in our State
Of Michigan one can collect cart load
Of affiIavlts that a mans liver is about
the most worthless organ in the human
hody, and down in Indiana they wont
have 'em at all If they can help it. Our
correspondent a; Lansing writes:
Please let the President know through
your columns, that, in 1872, boy fred
big agate marble through my liver
from a toy cannon. / stuffed up the
hole with an old hat. and after the
third day could attend to business as
we'll as ever. The injnry rather b!unted
my taste for New Orleans molasses, but
aside from that have noticed no seri.
Gus effects.
Our correspondent at Mackuaw sends
down the following:
The President need not be alarmed
about his liver. Last fall my brother
got into the way of blast at Lake Su-
perior mine and stone weighing o
pound was driven clear through him,
carrying portions of his liver over 200
feet Tie doctors pronounced him o
dead man, hut in a few weeks he was
able to play base ball, and has neve,
! had even headache since. inclost
you the stone which knocked his live
out, as proof of my statement.
Our correspondent Of st. JOSEPH
writes:
In June, lat year, had a coloret
!. man named John Baker in nv employ
While driving moving machine b
fell to the ground and was badly cut up
Among other wounds he had his live
cut slick in two, and council of seve
=. doctors decided that he must die in tw
Q hours. He is now we'll, healthy man
r chewing the strongest kind OF plug to
lnacco and drinking whisky which kill
"ordinary men stone dead at thirty-si

o Our correspondent ct Grand Have
says he knows en- Indian who was rippe
open with buzz saw and his liver fnn
upon beam forty feet away. The doc

" the lost organ was forgotten, but th
red man has suffered no ipconvenlenc
whatever. On the contrary, he has neve
been in such spirits He can drink twic
as much whisky without getting tangled
: it is much easier for him to swear; b
does not persp.re as much; he is cure
of the habit of snoring; his coat fit
better in the hack: dried apples hav
improved in taste, snd he would NO
have the old thing back again under an

FOREIGN BRIEFS.

London: The authorities of the GUS
tom house have been warned from Liv-
erpool that an attempt to blow up that
building would be made shortly. Ex-
traordinary precaution is being taken.
Gibraltar: Capt. Hocken reports that
he passed on the 10th of March large
Atlantic steamer. She appeared to be
broken down and the sea was making a
clean baeacb over her decks. She had
no mast, head light nor steam up. Her
head was north by northwest.
Berlin: A telegram to the foreign
office states that the authorities of Chic
ask for 1900 tents. There are only so
houses standing. On all sides cries of
distress are heard from the ruins, but
nobody dares approach to render as
sistance. The controller of Chic and
family are still under the ruins crying
for succor.
Syria: There are continued shocks of
earthquake at Chic, destroying houses
that were injured by the first shock. 1t
is said to be utterly impossible to enter
the town. All the open spaces in the
town are filled with the wounded,
many of whom are in helpless condi-
tion. and many dead and wounded are
still under the ruins. The survivors
are emigrating in all directions. Sup
plies arrive daily, but are insufficient to
cope with the desolation.

WASHINGTON NOTES.


Washington, April 6.-The presi-
dent to-day nominated Hiram Price. of
Iowa, commissioner of Indian affairs,
vice Thomas M.iNichol, whose nomina-
tion was withdrawn at his own request.
Several other nominations were made.
The widow of John Brown lwho was
hung at Harper's Ferry is in Washing
ton seeking position, as she is in poor
circumstances.
The object of Conkling's trip to New
York was disclosed tonight, when he
returned with Hamilton Fish, whose
services have been secured as interme-
diary between Conkling and the pres;-
dent
The action of the president to-day in
sending in nominations for several i'm
portant places. such as Indian commits
sloner, indicates his purpose to throw
upon the senate the entire responsible
ity of failure to confirm or injuriously
delaying in confirming nominations.

Chicago, April 6.-Later returns
from the municipal election make some
surprising changes. Nearly 1900
more votes were polled than at the
mayoralty election of 1879, and $4,000
less than at the last presidential cleo
tion. Harrison's majority is very close
to 5000. The democrats also elect the
city treasurer by 1900 majority; attor-
ney by 5.T00, and clerk by l, 500 major
ity. The republicans gained two alder
men and have control of the council by
a secure majority. They also elect the
following town officers: In North town,
collector; in South town, supervisor,
collector, assessor and clerk by majori-
ties of from 179 TO 1928, and West
town, collector and clerk. These
changes from the supposed result show
quite clearly that the votes were more
generally divided on personal than on
political grounds, and deprive the re-
suit of its significance from political
stand point.
