DISGRACE AND MISFORTUNE.-lhe
election in Chicago of Harrison, the
avowed candidate of the disreputable
classes, to be Mayor of that city for a
third term, and by a heavier majority
than he received at any previous election,
is disgrace and misfortune to that com
munity. The issue was very clearly
made. There was no doubt of the char
acter Of the candidates or of their respect
i've backings. The press of the city was
almost entirely united against Harrison,
and there was a strong organization of
the respectable class against him. His
success opens up very sorry prospect
for the town which is the marvel of the
continent, even in ifs evil ways. 1t pre-
sents an interesting study in what is still
and experimental working of univer-
sal suffrage in municipal administration

TRAFFIC IN GERMAN GIRLS. lam
Joest, German traveller, who has trav-
ersed all the accessible countries of the
world, writes that he has found an or
ganized and widely extended traffic in
German girls who were consigned to a
condition hardly better than that of
slaves. They are sent from Hamburg,
which seems 20 be the main shipping
point, to the countries of South America,
both on the Atlantic and Pacific Coast,
to Cuba, the West Indies, Central Amer
lea, Mexico and the United States.
Joest found such girls in Alexandria
Suez, Bombay, Calcutta, Singapore, Hong
Kong and Shanghai. There were none
in the Dutch colonies of Asia, Holland
not permitting their introduction. Joest
states that he has evidence that a large
number of agents and travelling drum
mers are employed in this traffic, and
that it is well known to many of the
German Consuls abroad.
THE BABY CAMEL.-Of the new baby
camel that was found in the snsw in
Central Park, New York, few mornings
since, it was written; ''The old Mrs.
Camel was rather inclined to be ungraci-
GUS toward her little one, and she had to
be tied up with strong ropes before she
would permit the caresses of her babe.
The babe is about the size Of a calf. It
consists principally of legs. These are
long, cumbersome, and apparently much
in their own way. The infant camel has
a back just like any other animals.
There is no hump visible yet. The keep
er says that the young beast will sprout
a hump in the course of time. It's neck
is SO short that it could not eat grass.
were there any to eat, without lying
down. This slight discrepancy, however,
will be remedied within a year. This
young animal is the. third camel born in
the park. His mother was born there
before him, and he is, therefore, true
American"
'"Trying to do business without adver-
tising," remarks an exchange, sit is like
winking at girl in the dark You may
know what you are doing but nobody
else does" Trying to cure Catarrh by
the use of snufs and irritating liquid in
jections is the height Of folly also. The
disease will never be cured by such treat
ment. Moreover, the delicate lining
membrane of the nasal organs will, soon
er or later, become infamed and diseased
by such irritants. Ely's Cream Balm is
not a snuff or liquid, and is easily ap-
piled. It's effects are pleasant, rapid,
thorough. No case of Catarrh or cold in
the head can withstand its effects. 81

enor, dealer in boots and shoes, Elizabeth,
n. j., cit was almost impossible to
breathe through my nostrils, on account
of Catarrh. Ely's Cream Balm cured
me in a short time" All druggists sell
It. 81
