From Hon. Geo. s. billiard, Boston.

From Hon. Geo. 5. HiIIaru, boSJoH'
have used the lifting cure under the direc-
ton of DIR. Paul, Boston agent for the Health
Lift Co., for about six months, and can recon-
mend it as good and healthy form OF exer'
else. 1t quickens the circulation, increases the
muscular force and gives to the whole system
sense of renewed vigor. 1t is particularly to
be commended to those whose habits are Sc
dentary. But in order to secure its good re-
suits it must be pursued regularly and as mat
ter of duty, and not occasionally and as mat
ter of impulse. In general man needs SUCH
exercise most when he feels inclined to it.
Such disinclination is the result of low tone
of the system, which good lift will help to
improve.

A young man from New Portland was re-
Gently committed to the Insane Hospital,
whose case is peculiar one. A short time

His head was completely turned by this result
of his speculation in land, and when brought
to the Hospital, he was busily engaged in sell
inc counties and States.

The Detroit Free Press thinks Miss Dickin-
son within year will play thoroughly adj
mirable Hamlet.
In Rochester, at the end Of the fourth act
of Hamlet, Miss Dickinson was repeatedly
called out, and when she came before the cur
tain the second time she was very pleasantly
surprised by an appropriate presentation. AS
she stepped in front of the proscenium box she
was greeted by Annie Robertson Noxon, OF the
St. Louis press, who, in few we'll chosen
words, presented Miss Dickinson, in behalf OF
Miss M. French Sheldon, of Chicago, with
magnificent necklace and brooch of old anne.
thysts, to be worn by the new Hamlet:
These were the Oldest Jewels of the kind in
England, whence they were brought by Mrs
Sheldon.

The nitrate deposits, which were one Of
the principal causes Of the war between
Chill and Peru, are about to definitely
return to the hands of private holders.
The Diario Official, of Chill, publishes
lengthy decree determining the manner in
which the sale Of the establishments 10 to
be effected. They are divided into two
oategories. One comprises all those for
which the Peruvian Government stipulated
to pay upward of 500. 900, and the second
all those valued at less than that amount.
They were all to be sold between the elev-
enth and t~wenty-ninth OF September. The
political Governor OF Tarapaca has com.
municated that since the 9th OF July sew
eral provisional holders OF nitrate deposits
have presented themselves, soliciting defin-
lite titles to establishments representing a
total value Of $500. 055 soles. The total
value OF the nitrate establishments OF
Peru amounts to $1s, DOC, 900, and up to
the 4th of July there had been redeemed
nearly IS, 600. 600, in conformity with the
supreme decree Of the 2sth OF March OF
the present year.

Fools in The Minority.

There are some selfish young men in the
Columbian Law School in Washington.
There are also some sensible young men
there. The foolish young men took it
upon themselves to object to the pres
ence of s.. I. Williams, a member of the
junior class. Mr.. Williams is a graduate
of the Michigan University, and a young
man of intelligence, but his skin is darker
thar that Of the average law student, and
his hair is curlier. In fact, he has some
negro blood in his veins. This was deemed
sufficient cause by the foolish young men
for calling a meeting to take action in
regard to his presence in the law school.
At the meeting they introduced a resolu-
ton ''that a committee of three be ap-
pointed to wait upon the Faculty of the
Institution and request the expulsion of
the negro from the law school Of the uni
versity." Up to this point the fools had
all things their own way. Then the sensi-
BILE students came to the front. They Of
fered and by a large majority adopted a
substitute for the resolution, declaring
that ''the negro, by his gentlemanly con-
duct and excellent ability, was entitled to
a seat in Columbian or any other college"
Then the meeting adjourned with three
cheers for Williams. 1t is pleasant to be
able to record the fact that the fools in the
Washington Columbian Law School are
in the minority.

THE
Quiet Day-The Democrats Make
a Good Fight.

Quiet Day-The Democrats Make
81 Good Fight.
The election in Eureka yesterday passed
off almost without incidents. 1t had been
expected that there would be bitter strife
and great excitement. The contrary was
the case. There was but little noise, no
drunkenness and but for the crowds
about the polling places and the quick
earnest movements yesterday, might have
passed off for Sunday. AS a general
thing the substantial citizens of the com
munity went and voted early. 1t was said
that a goodly number held off waiting for
the opening of a sack, and waited SO long
that they got left. This is evidently not
true, as the figures show. In the Second
Ward there were 729 voters in the registry
book, Of whom 694 voted. The difference
(34) is slight considering that transfers
away counted on the list of 72S. In the
First Ward 407 out of 40S voted. 1t was
a square up and up, good-natured fight all
the way through, and the victors, whoever
they may prove to be, are entitled to the
spoils. The Democrats made a splendid
fight. The Republican majority in the
county, we are satisfied, will be found to
be considerably reduced. On the State
ticket Adams and Merrill, it seems, will
get good, strong maiorities. The county
ticket is badly scratched, and at this time
speculation about the result would be idle.
Elsewhere we will give the latest figures
procurable,
