CONSUMPTION.


1t is said that $4,000 people die an
nually in the United States alone from
this disease. In some sections of the
country one death in every three is from
consumption. This can be, and should
be avoided; our people are too careless
about an ordinary cough or cold, and
the other symptoms of throat and lung
affections that lead TO this disease. You
should arrest it while it is in the germ.
Two or three doses of DR.. Bosanko's
Cough and Lung Syrup will relieve an
ordinary cough or cold. It does not
dry up cough like many preparations
on the market and leave the disease be-
hind it, but acts directly on the throat
and bronchial tubes, removing all the
phlegm and morbid matter that accu-
mulates in the throat and lungs. II
allays all irritation, and renders the
voice clear and distinct. Call for SAM

THEY DENY.

Globe Democrat; AS might have
been expected, the English ministry
vigorously denies the charge of sending
paupers to this country, and Mr.. Trev-
elyan, the chief secretary for Ireland,
goes so far as to declare that no per-
sons unable to support themselves have
been sent out of Ireland; that he has
seen their tickets and knows what he is
talking about. Against this positive
declaration of the secretary, which
ought to be conclusive but is not, there
lie the statements of the authorities of
New York and Boston, who declare
just as positively that these people are
paupers; that they come from the work
houses of Ireland with money given
them by the master of the house, and
that they did not only have no relatives
in. this country, but do not even know
where to go after they get
here. The probability is
that the Irish secretary has
either been grossly misled by some
body or is trying to mislead in his turn.
The inquiries made in the house of COM
mons will hardly he likely to bring out
the truth, since the truth is exactly what
the British government is determined

of Mr.. Trevclyan that no confidence is
TO be placed in the telegraphic reports
from America Is a pretty broad hint
that he is anxious to have the matter
nicely smoOthed over before any inves-
tigatiOn hegins. 1t is not probable that
the opposition will do anything. since
everybody IN England would be well
satisfied il all of Ireland's population,
rich and poor together, could be emptied
out into the United States; so the only
certain way for us to avoid being i'm
posed on in this matter is to look pretty
sharply alter il for ourselves, and if pau.
pers come to send them hack by the next
steamer and encourage the steamship
lines to look to the English government
for the passage money. Sucha course
as this would be nothing but justice to
all concerned.

THE MILLIONAIRE TRAMP
How a Wash ngtOn Widow
Caught Her Husband and
Fortune.
Washington Special 30th.


A marriage, about which there is
flavor of romance and something OF
the ludicrous, took place at the rec.
tory of Epiphany church, this city'
last evening in the presence of a few
friends of the contracting parties.
G. G. Merritt, of Baltimore, a
youth of twenty three or more, and
Mrs Hattie Howard, of the Dun
dores Employment and Claim Agen-
cy, an alleged grass widow, were the
contracting parties.
Mrs. Howard, who is described as
fair, fat and forty," says she is thir-
ty-three. Merritt is rather wild
young fellow, who ran away from
home in Baltimore several years ago
aud has picked up a living about
here through situations procured for
him by Mrs. Dondore and her clerk
the unblushing bride.
A few months ago he disappeared
and recently his father in Baltimore
who had disowned him after he ran
away, died, leaving him a fortune
variously estimator at figures reach
ing above a million. The fair How
ard warmed up her affections for the
wandering orphan and heir, and by
great efforts found his whereabouts
and informed him of his fortune.
Here is the way she tells it : "EIe
was very wild and would go off and
be a regular tramp and then come
back and Mrs Dundore would clean
him up and straighten him all out
again.
Late in the winter he disappeared
for good, we thought. Not very
long ago we got word from Balti
more that his Father was dead and
that he would be very rich. Mrs,
Duudore was in Florida.
Il thought he was in Virginia, so
I set to work to find him, telling him
to come here all over the State, one
reached him at Newport News.
"Thrce weeks ago last Monday he
walked in this office and said {:
swell, here I am, what do you
want"
"Caleb,' said I, your father is
dead,' and he tainted right off.
Il sent word to Mrs. Dundore
and she came home. We didn't let
him go to Baltimore for fear that
some people there might try to put
him in the insane asylum in order to
get his money.
Il had no more idea that he was
going to ask me to marry him than
| have that you will before you leave
this office"
''But didn't he show any fondness
for you before his return e.
"Oh, yes. Let me see. 1t was
last winter that said to Dundore.
'Dundore, do you know that that
cub of yours is trying to make love
to me :"
"Well, never you mind, Howard,
said she, some of these days that
boy will have more money
than you ever had or ever will have "

Howard, 81 didn't have any idea
