 This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is posi- tive proof that the remedy iaaitated is of the highest value.
 As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imita- tions sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and people of the country had express ed the merits of H. B., and in every way trying to induce suffer- ing invalids to use their stuff in- | stead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B.
 Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. B., with variously cunningly devised names in which the word ''Hop" or" "Hops" were used in 9 way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word "Hop" or "Hops' in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are lml- tations or counterfeits. ..
 Beware of them. Touch none of them, but: Use nothing but genuine Hop Bitters, with bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white label. Trust nothing else. Druggists and dealers are warneu against dealing in limitations or commercials. fN

The N. Y, N. H. & H. k. R. Go. deserve great credit for their prompt response to the request of the town to put gates at our dan. gerous crossings. The gates now in pro cess of erection.

Now very many passengers must cross both tracks from the north to reach the station and this is to run risk from the frequent trains If walk were made on the south side to River street the danger of injury would be avoided, as well as the climbing the steep bank on the north side.

Cases.

WASHINGTON, January 8. Col. Jack
Brown, who has taken upon his shoulders
the management of the Independent move
ment in Georgia, returned to the city to-
day from that State. He is Just bubbling
with hope. He says that everything is ripe
in Georgia for a new revelation, and that
there is no doubt but that the Independents
and Republicans have q big show for sue
cess in Georgia. The recent developments
in national politics have, he asserts, made
Republicanism in Georgia respectable. Upon
that, principally, he bases his hope for fu-
ture Independent success.
According to him, General Gartreli, who
was an officer in the Confederate army, is
the choice of the Republicans and Inde-
pendents in the next Guoernatorial contest
in Georgia. To listen to this constituted
Republican Independent exponent, the as
sumption would be that Georgia is already
IN the procession headed by Virginia.
It is stated on the best of authority that
very shortly after the reassembling OF Con-
gress John q. New, of Indiana, will be
nominated for the position of United States
NlihIr' u W hu~slds his Will D6 W buCC6cu
Mr.. Foster, OF Indiana, who resigned some
time ago. Il would seem that the growing
Indiana Republicans are thus at last to re-
ceive some important recognition for the
part which they took IN swinging into the
Republican line the October State, which
was the prelude to the last Presidential
election, and in keeping 1t there In the
Presidential election, which followed in the
next month.
Col. George Bliss, special attorney for
the United States in the star route cases,
said to night that information upon the civil
suits against the star route thieves will be
presented to the grand jury on tae 2lst inst.
He thinks that the information which will
be presented will be certainly strong enough
to secure indictments, and that following
them there will be in due course of time
judgments to recoup the government In
some Of the moneys which have been stolen
by the star route crowd.

NEWARK'S BROKEN BANK.
Cashier Baldwin Tells the story of
His CroOkedness.

TRENTON, n. j., January The answer
of Oscar s. Baldwin, late Cashier of the
Mechanics Bank, to the application Of the
Receiver for q permanent Injunction, re-
straining him from disposing Of his proper
ty on the ground that he had applied the
banks funds to his own use, was fled by
his counsel, Cortland 7. Parker, in the
United States Court here to dsv Baldwin
denies that any part Of the banks money
was ever improperly diverted to his own
use, and explains in detail bow the several
funds, which he is charged with transfer
ring to his own use, came into his pos
session.
Hetells in a long narrative the true story
of his life. How he began work in the bank
as messerC ger, rose to be cashier, and
finally, in 1872. was induced by the renre-
sentatiOns of Christopher NugeHt, OF Nu-
gent & Co, morocco manufacturers, TO
extend his line Of credit TO the amount of
$l47 600 He said that he cosceslod this
fact from the directors, aud that Nugent,
on learning of this. used 1t to force him to
continue loans until the time of the
failure, when the amount was $2,
10000 He says the directors were
as careful and as close in their in
spections as those of other institutions.
That Theodore Baldwin, teller of the bank,
and the cashiers brother, had no knowledge
of the Nugent loans and was in no way
connected with him; that no money was
lost in stock speculations; that it was only
through Nugent's power over him. his fear
OF exposure, and full belief in Nugent's
statement that the deficiency would
soon be made good, that he car
ried the load Of concealment
so long. and that he never knew what Nu-
gents expenses were. but only had charge
OF the receipts of the firm, which were sufn
ciently large to make him believe Nugent
would be able TO pay him in the end. In
all the transactions Baldwin claims he was
working only TO save the bank. He never
realized any personal profit from them, and
expected TO the last that Nugeut would
make good his repeated promises to return
the money he had obtained.

SHOT DOWN BY A MOB.
BLOODY BATTLE IN A TEXAS
TOWN.
Five Prisoners DIsnrm Their
Guards, XIII One, Capture Another
and EscaPe-Pursued by Citizens,
aud Three of Them Killed After
q Desperate Struggle.

ST. LOUIS, January 3.-Advices from
Graham, Texas, report that the three Nc
Donald boys, the murderers of man named
Martin at Belknsp. made a desperate effort
to escape from jail yesterday, which result
ed in their death and that OF a deputy
sheriff, besides the serious wounding OF
several other people. About 10 O'Clock in
the morning the Mcdonald BOYS were led
from the steel cage to the cslaboose, and
with Jim Boone and Jack Baldwin, two
other prisoners, were given their
breakfast by two deputies. One
deputy was testing the cage while it
was empty, and the other deputy, Davis
Melton, stood in the doorway of the wooden
cell opening from the cslaboose to the
steel cage. He had pistol in each hand,
keeping watch, and presently he put both
revolvers In one hand TO get his watch from
bis pocket. The McDoDalds spraDg upon
him suddenly and dIsarmed him. In the
struggle Melton was shot in the hand. His
cries brought Murfee, the other deputy,
from the cage, but on entering the Gala
boose he was shot and instantly killed by
the prisoners. The prisoners then made
hole through the floor, and began their
escape. A bloodhound watches the jail,
but bv a detour they avoided him, and took
their flight in another direction.
By this time the city was excited, and
the citizens had gathered together and fol-
lowed the prisoners. The slater placed
their hostage, Melton, behind them, and
threatened TO shoot him dead II they were
fred on. Thus the murderers proceeded
for some three hundr d yards, when one
citizen deliberately took aim aud firing
wounded one OF the fugitives. who fell.
Deputy Melton seized the opportunity, broke
loose and ran. A general fusilade now began
between the citizens and the escaping prison
ers. The latter entrenched themselves 10 the
weeds and stumps. The battle ragged for
some time. when the shooting ceased. The
three McDoualds were dead, Melton was
shot three times, an old man named Wood
was wounded in the thigh and a waiter
named Joe had bone of his leg shattered.
Baldwin and Boone took no part in the
shooting, and were recaptured Graham
was the scene of terrible excitement during
the bloody sffray.

Brddssrset'a

Telegraphic advices to Br0dssTeefs to
December 81, from thirty-hve trade
centres. recount the trade aud industrial
prosperity in this country for 1881.
There is, indeed, every reason to believe
that the conditions are so favorable IS to
insure continuation Of trade and indus
trial activity throughout 1889 and be-
yond. The summary at Chicago shows
an increase over 1880, the only draw
back being falling off in the movement
of breadstuffs. The outlook for the
spring trade is reported good. Louis
vile reports an increase in trade and
marked activity in building. Louis
ville's leaf tobacco business for the year
was the largest ever known there. The
summary for st. Louis is about the same
as that for Chicago. The unreasonable
weather affected seriously the fall trade
at important points in Minnesota.
Throughout Michigan the roads con-
tinue bad, and collections are reporteda a
little slow. These, however, are only
incidental drawbacks, as in general the
year has been very prosperous for the
Northwest, and this in spite of short
grain crops. immigration has been a
most healthful stimulus for the North
west. Coming East, the great industrial
activity is brought into sharp
relief at Cleveland and Pitts.
burg. The prosperity in manu-
featuring industry existing everywhere
is perhaps the most marked charac-
terlstic of the commercial situatIOu, and
at present writing til lie are no signs of
lessened activity in any direction The
year has brought great benefits to the
South in the shape of rapid railway ex-
tension and the general development of
the country. The movement in general
merchandise at some of the leading
Southern trade centres has not been so
satisfactory General trade on the Pa
citic coast Is reported to have been fairly
good. 1t will be remembered that the
Pacific coast was the lat to feel
the abounding prosperity of the
country. At the seaboard eitlcs--and
this is notably true of New York
the movement in general merchandise
has been fairly unDrecedented. No
previous summer in New York ever saw
such activity in the dry goods trade,
and this statement will in great degree
hold good for other trades The for.
bidding feature has been the falling of
in the export trade consequent upon
the short crops and the speculation for
high prices. But there are sufficient
reasons for believing that the abouuding
resources of the United States will
speedily afford a remedy for the impair
ed export trade.
