'No, sir; ; don't believe newspaper men are more dsspated than any other class of men who their
 living by their brains" said Mr. A. H. Siegfried, Man. ager of the Advertising Department of the St. Paul Pioneer-Press. 'Still, those of them who do desk work are tempted to stimulate for It's very hard the nerves and stomach.''
 ''As for exampe-7"
 "As for example, in my own case. stuck to my desk on this paper until my nerves were like bunch of telegraph wires after gale, and my stomach kept about as good time two-dollar watch. My friends suggested this and the doctors advised that but one day caught on' to 'ad.' of PARKER's TONIC, and tried it. have never endorsed proprietary medi- cine before, but shall depart from my rules and say that the Tonic is not merely the best thing but the only thing that breaks up these attacks. All desk workers should make note of it."
 This preparation, which has been known as Park CTS Ginger Tonic, will hereafter be advertised and sold simply under the name of PARKER's ToNIc. As unpri4cipled dealers are constantly deceivng their customers by substituting inferior articles under the namo of ginger. and ginger is really unimportant ingredien t. we drop this misleading word.
 There is no change, however, in the preparation itse and all bottles aiming in tbe hands of deal CTS, wrapped under the name of PARERs GINGER ToNIc contain the genuine medicine if the fac-simile signature of HIscox Co. is at the bottom of the outside wrapper.

TEE WIPES INFLUENcE.

Two gentlemen at 8 large reception in New York, last winter, were discussing one of the foremost politicians of the coun- try-a man who, whether in office or out, always kept himself prominently Ebefore the public. ''I knew him at college" said one of the gentlemen. "He was man with clear. head, extraordinary memory, and much personal magnetism. But I cannot understand why he chose public life or has pushed himself forward so per slstently. He was a lazy, thoughtful, vis- lonary fellow, absolutely destitute of ann bltlon. "I can tell you the secret" said the other. "You will find it in his wife's nose. There she is! Did you ever see g more perfect incarnation of energy and love of command? Napoleon would have chosen her for one of his marshals at first sight" His friend was amused at the guess, and said presently '"There is another of my old classmates, P. He was thin, ambitious, scholarly fellow, with refined tastes and aims. He is fat, ,indol- ent animal without thought, apparently, but his cognac and terrapin. Who is to blame for that ?" "His wlfe's mouth and her money. Twill show her to you" He pointed out a gross, voluptuous woman, richly dressed. "P," he resumed, "has lived in idleness since his marriage. He was not strong enough to carry the weight of so much wealth and so much vulgarity. They have borne him down. He will nev- CT rise. Young men at school or college are very apt to be enraptured with spark
 ling eye, rosy cheek, or some charm of manner in some young woman that they happen to meet. They are hardly masters of themselves and moonlight night, or 8 song, suddenly tempts them to ask the enchanting creature who has bewitched them to share their future. They do not consider that she will be the most real, active force in their whole lives, almost ir- resistible, with power to drag them down or lift them up in body, mind and soul.

Better results could not have

the main channel of the river set in
behind Bullerton Towhead, which
was wearing away at a very rapid
rate. Nearly every river man de-
clared it impossible to save the
towhead and bring the deep chan
mel out from behind it. This has
all been accomplished, however,
and the channel is exactly where
the commission planned to haveit,
and the towhead is no longer wear

The Right TO Dlsbar Attorneys.

Washington, April 16.-A deci-
sion was rendered by the Supreme
Court of the United States to-day
in the disbarment case of j. Il.
Wall, brought here upon petition
for a mandamus from the United
States District Court for the Sou
thern District of Florida. Wall,
the petitioner, was disbarred and
forbidden to practice in the Uni
ted States Courts of the District
above mentioned, for having taken
part in lynching a prisoner named
John, who was in Jail in Tampa,
Florida, awaiting trial OH a charge
of rape. The petitioner asks for
O writ of mandamus to compel the
United States District Judge to
restore TO him the rights and priv
ileges of an attorney in said court,
on the ground that his disbarment
without due trial and conviction
for crime was unconstitutional and
void. This Court, in an elaborate
opinion by Justice Bradley, holds
that while there is no settled or
inhexible rule for the regulation
of procedure in cases of this kind,
Federal courts may in their dis
cretion disbar an attorney who has
been guilty of conduct of such a
nature as to bring disgrace and
scandal upon the court, whether
he had been duly tried under the
criminal laws of tho State or not.
The petition for mandamus Is
therefore denied. Justice Field
read a dissenting opinion.
