MINISTER LOWELL says that nothing
that he can do will tend to lessen the
friendly relations existing between Eng
land and the United States. In view of the
recent eI traordinary demands of the Eng

uppatriotic and snobbish. There is neither
independence nor dignity i'm Mr.. Lowell's

My heart is more and moro oppressed with
the feeling that the number OF those who har-
Dor malice until their hearts become regard

chief Is increasing In our State.
Tho abolition of capital punishment, and
the substitution of imprisonment for life,
on the silent plan, appears to be as futile to
prevent murder as the prohibition of tho
sale of intoxicants is to stop the use of
them. Foul murders are committed and
people get drunk under these laws, war
ranted to put an end to both, very much as
they do in States where murderers are oc-
casionally hanged and barrooms abound.

THE ORGAN has q remarkable article on
silver coinage this morning. 1t strains re-
markably to be sarcastic and misses the
mark by remarkable distance. Indeed
the article is remarkable, in fact remarla-
bly, remarkable, for containing nothing
new, nothing important upon the subject of
which it treats. The writer is a silyer-dol-
lar-of-the-daddies advocate, but is remark
ably inapt in his method of advancing the
interests of the silver mine owners. The
United States is not bound 10 furnish II
market for the mined silver, and neither
should it be compelled to find storage room
for the minted silver. The continuation of
the coinage of these undervalue- dollars
will prove disastrous to the business inter
ests of the country. This may be remsrka-
bly, remarkable to the silver men, but it is
true.

sensation was created In the rooms OF the
Duckworth Club (Democratic) at Cincinnati
yesterday morning by the effort of Mayor
Means TO shoot John Brady, the county jailer.
Both are members OF the club, and had spent
the night at the rooms hearing election re-
turns. Early yesterday morning the Mayor,
who had been drinking, made threats OF going
to insult Brady, who was up stairs. He went
up stairs and friends got Brady downstairs.
Means followed, when some men seized him,
but he finally drew revolver. Brady, seeing
this, drew HIS pistol and demanded that Means
be taken away. This was done and bloodshed
was avoided. The men have not been on good
terms for two years.

Most of the contributions to the sufferers
by the Rhine floods were from this coun-
try. England is too utterly selfish to do
much for suffering Germans. But what
can you expect from nation that permits
thousands of innocent people to starve to
death, but for help from foreign land, as
England does? All Ireland might starye
and England would never raise hand or
spend penny to prevcntsit. There is
small wonder, therefore, that Ireland so
hates England as to legitimize to her sons
the most cruel and desperate methods Of
attack, whereby their weakness may be put
upon q level with tho strength of their
country's foe.

Insufficient Lung Capacity.

In proportion as horse shows lack
of constitution by not being able to
stand exposure to cold, in that proper
ton is he liable, usually, to contract
flung disease. As rule, the smaller
the chest and lungs, in proportion tc
the body, the more liable is the horse
to become exhausted when driven
sharply, as shown by the quck-heaving
sides, the rapid action of the heart, and
the general evidences of distress. 1t is
in this way that the lungs, deficient in
size and vigor, take on disease so readi.
| ly after the horse has been hard pressed
at his work. on the same principle that
| a weak hook or pastern, or a weak
| loin, is liable to be easily strained.
When attacked by inflammation then,
more than at any other time, does he
show the disadvantages of having re-
strIcted room for air to enter; because,
when under the action of disease, q
portion of one or both lungs is rem.
dered incapable of performing its full
function, the portions left unaffected
may be quite inadequate to carry on
the necessary aeration of the blood,
thus materially curtailing one of the
most important means of recovery.
When horse, lacking in constitution
from the cause mentioned. permanently
loses the use of a portion of either
lung, through Repatriation or other
permanent disability, he has but little
left to hold him up. and, if able for any
duty, it must be of the very lightest
kind. This, also, must be done under
favorable outside influences, as to
weather, because such an animal easily
loses his capacity for even partial use.
fulness.
Let it be remembered that chest
power is partly inherited, and in part
something to be secured by cultivation.
By using sire and dam that both have
capacious lung space, the progeny will
inherit, in quite measure, this impor.
tant characteristic. This will be an as
surance, from the start, of chest capac-
ity and constitution. The power Sc
cured through cultivation is not so man.
ifest to the eye. Vigor is impaired to
the contents of the chest through the
expansion and contraction of accom-
panying vigorous exercise; for lung ex-'
pansion keeps pace with muscular ac-
ton, and lung tissue is stimulated to
grow, and to take on increased vigor
and power of endurance under expos
ure, equally with the growth and vigor
impaired 10 the muscles by giving them
full play, and putting them to their full
tension frequently.
When the muscles take on full action,
as in trotting or running, there is an
immediate demand made by the mus
cular tissues for more nutriment, more
blood, and the heart, quickened in its
action. pumps an increased. quantity to

and usually partially inactive portions
