two years we have frequently seen statements
of parties claiming to have been cured of
serious kidney troubles even after hope had
been Abandoned; but in common with most
people we have dscredited them. Quite re-
Gently, however, a number of prominent and
well-known men have come out voluntarily
and stated over their signatures that they were
completely cured by the use of Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure. Most people have been
aware that this medicine has an unusual stand
ing and one emitting it to be classed above
proprietary articles generally; but that
it had accomplished so much. in checking the
ravages of kidney disease is not so generally
known. Its great worth has been shown not
only by the cures il has effected, hut also be-
cause number of base limitations have
appeared in the market, fraudulently claiming
the valuable qualities of the original Safe Cure
If it were not valuable it would not be initiated
The above may seem like an ultra endorse
ment of popular remedy, but it is not one
whit stronger than the facts admit. Whatever
assists the world toward health and consequent
happiness should receive the hearty endorse
ment of the press and all friends of humanity.
1t is on precisely this principle that the fOregO-
ing statement is made and it merits the care
full consideration of every thinking reader.

TEMPLETON AND THOMPSON.
Comic Opera at the Casino and an Emo
tiOnal Drama at Turner Hall.

At Turner hall last evening the Charlotte
Thompson company produced the comedy
drama Miss Mutton, beautiful emotional
play which loses considerably in interest by its
great resemblance to East Lynne Miss Char
lotte Thompson impersOnates the character of
Miss Mutton, the assumed name of Madame de
Latour, who is supposed to have deserted her
husband and children and been killed i'm a rail-
way accident, while her husband has taken to
himself new wife. The character is very
difficult one, and is undoubtedly one of Miss
ThompsOn's best. Few will forget the earnest
ness and painful reality that surrounds it. The
suiferings of the yearning mother in search of
her children, the energy OF the third act, in
which she obligeS DR.. LOngworth to aid her in
becoming governess to her own children in
the house of her husband and his new wife,
the pathos attending her meeting her children,
her stormy Indignation at the new wifc's con-
duct, and the declaration 81 am Phononde."
The rest OF the characters were well repre-
sented the " DR.. Longworth of Mr.. w.
Yearance, though somewhat eXaggerative, the
and the JEANNE de Latour' of Miss Clara
Thropp being especially worthy of cOmmenda-

A Strange Inquiry,

Mr.. Wolf, of the Hord hotel, has received a
strange letter from a gentleman who was a
guest at HOrds hotel. He writes saying that
the unfOunded report that the Hord hotel was
through the medium of telegraphic CORE
spondents' reports and that the people had
virtually "boycotted" him for fear of infec-
ton. Mr.. Wolfe, at once wrote proving that
the report was malicious SANDER, and the en-
quirer has since been generally received among
his fellow citizens. This should be a caution
to topographic correspondents to exercise due
care in obtaining authentic news, as such a
blunder does great injury, lot only to individ-
uals, as In the case of the enquirer, and Mr.,
Wolfe, but to the community; inasmuch as it

An Industrious Young Canadian.

A subscriber to the LIGHT writes: Mr.. Jacob
Rupp, a young German Canadian, came to
Texas about two years ago and has ever since
been employed as common laborer on the new
railroads that are being built. He has Just
quit work, and his earnings i'm the two years
made the net sum of $685. all of which he has
still cash in hand. This shows what a young,
healthy man who is willing to work and save his
money can accomplish in Texas; and such
young men are never in want of work and
friends. Let idlers and such that spend their
wages in foolish manner learn a lesson from
Mr.. Rupp's example.

AFFAIRS between France and China are
rapidly approaching crisis. Yesterday
the Chinese ambassador at Paris demand
ed that France withdraw Immediately
from the treaty of Hue, which was refused
The refusal was accompanied, however, by
guarantee that the integrity of the Chi
nese frontier would be observed. 1t is not
probable that this will satisfy the celes-
t1als, who are making active preparations
for war, and threaten to drive the French
from Tonquin at any cost. The prospect
of war is creating good deal of uneasi-
mass throughout Europe. for the CONNER
cial consequences would be far-reaching
and disastrous.

The Pioneer Press, in its report of Mr..
Wizards speech at the Minnetonka ban
quet, made him say:
There are some topics that know the cities
OF st. Paul and Minneapolis would like to hear
from me about. For topics relating to termi-
nal facilities in the two cities, regarding which
there IS so much curiosity, will discuss on nv
return from the Pacific coast''
There are more than 600 witnesses to
prove that this straddleburg report is an
arrant lie. Nowhere in his speech did
Mr.. Willard mention Minneapolis by name.
and in the passage above he said, ''There
are some topics that 1 know you citizens
of st. Paul would like to hear from me
about" He added that these were topics
relating to terminal facilities
without the slightest allusion to
the ''two cities" His ntire allusion was
to st. Paul as the terminal point of the
Northern Pacific and st. Pau
alone. The straddlebug news
paper deliberately falsifed Mr.. Vii
lard's speech to curry favor at Mime
apolis. But, of course, the people of ST.
Paul are only too delighted to enrich by
their patronage this Minneapolis news
paper which is printed in their midst.
