OF the yellow paint used in painting walls,
and the red color is derived from the COM
mon coarse paint used for painting brick
house walls and chimneys. A preparer OF
these coiors warned the confection mAnufac-
turers that they were poisonous, but they were
used all the same. All colored candies are
not poisonous. There are harmless coloTs

The seizures Of poisonous candies al New
York has aroused the health authorities at
other places TO look into the matter with
keen scrutiny. Cleveland, Ohio, is one
point where this has been done, and the sys-
TEN is found to prevail there to such an ex-
tent that the health authorities have pro-
eeeded in q summary manner. A
telegram from that place SAYS:
Chemist Rosenwasser, OF the wholesale drug
house OF Strong, Cobb & Co., visited candy
store Saturday evening, and when the subject

These poisons in colored candies are so
difrused that they are not active, violent aud

DR.. BELL DEAD.
The Distinguished Louisville Physi-
elan Dies Suddenly of Heart
DiSaaca

LOUISVILLE. Nv, Dec. 2S.-Dr. T. s. Bell.
one Of the oldest and most highly esteemed
physicians Of Louisville, was found dead IN
his room to-day. Though in feeble health
for some months, II is thought heart disease
caused his sudden death. He was widely
known as physician, medical teacher and
writer, and was considered the highest au-
thority in the country on bygieuic matters.
He was born in Lexington, Ky. in 1901, where
he studied medicine and graduated.
He removed 10 Louisville in 1892, and has
been the leading physician OF the city ever
since. Throughout his life his thirst for
knowledge has been remarkable, and for
years has been regarded as the most erudite
scholar aud best Informed man in the literary
circles Of the country. DR.. Bell was en-
dowed by nature with an inordinate
capacity for work, an iron constitu-
ton and singularly unselish
disposition He took keen interest in pub
lie Affairs aud became, by force OF his rare
intellectual Endorsements, a shining light
among the most brilliant minds of the city.
he possessed true Promethean fire that
must be shared with all around him.
He was a welcome aud constant coutribu-
tor both to :he columns Of the Advertiser
under Shadrich Penn, and the Louis
VILE Journal, under Prentice. The friend
ship between DR.. Bell aud Mr.. Prentice
was strong and deep, formed in mutual IT,
spect and admiration and cemented by cain
est cooperation Ia the noble work of public
usefulness. He Was an authorityOn almost
every subject Of human interest, and no one
who ever applied 10 him for information
ever left him without receiving light He
was especially active in securing the re-
moval, in 1887, Of the medical school
Of the University of Trsnsylvania to this
city, and in connection with Drs. Henry
Miller and L. p. Yandell, Sr., edited the
Louisville Medieol Journal, and upon their
retirement, long conducted that magazine
alone. He was appointed to the chair Of
''the science and art Of medicine and public
hygiene"of the university of LOuisyillein 1857
aud retained IL at the time OF his death with
honor to himself and great credit to the in
siitution.
During the war he had charge Of one of
the military hospitals located in this city, and
was on the board OF examining surgeons
during the draft He was also presi-
dent OF the Western division
Of the United States sanitary
commission, and was q trusted friend of
President Lincoln and Gen. Sherman. Asa
token Of recognition of his services 10 his
country in his professional character at this
time President Lincoln gave him a musket
with the inscription: ''From A. Lincoln to
DR.. I. S Bell, for his answering loyalty"

THE GIORE

In explanation Of the reports in the even
Ing papers relative to the sale of the GLOBE.
1t can be stated that negotiations are In pro-
gress between the GLOBE company and Mr..
Lewis Baker, of Wheeling, West Virginia.
and his associates, with reasonable pros
pecr of mutual agreement. When matters
are concluded, either with Mr. Baker or any
one else, the announcement will be duly
made by the GLOBE.
Mr.. Baker is a life long and thorough
newspaper man, sterling Democrat and
present member Of the Democratic National
Committee from West Virginia, and if his
negotiation should be concluded the GLOBE
will be placed in most excellent hands. In
Tact the GLOBE company will not entertain a
proposition from anyone who would take a
single step backward in making the GLOBE
the leading paper of the northwest.

THE CABINET Bo0HERs

great deal Of wisdom is being developed
by the newspapers relative to the com position
Of the cabinet of the incoming president.
An amount of swash which would fiji volumes
has already been written, volumes more of
The same character will be showereds upon 4
eng suffering public and in the end we shall
undoubtedly have just the same cabinet we
would have had if not word had been con-
ributed to the literature of the country.
large amount Of this literature is put
forth to boom this or that man, on the theory
that ii q candidate can be talked of in the
papers his chances viii be improved. A
veteran and retired Ohio politician tried that
plan to boom himself for the presidential
nomination by the Democratic national con-
yention in Chicago. He supplied every one
CT the eight or ten thousand newspapers of
the country with a pamphlet giving his
political and other pedigree. This called
forth some notices, the Washington cores
pondents mentioned the candidacy,

and all Of these we're collated,
and another circular letter fred at
the papers. On the surface this was all done
by the 'friends' Of the candidate, who must
have been very patriotic in his behalf 20 ex-
pend such sum as must have been required
for printing. postage and clericallabor. The
result Of II all was that his name was not
even alluded to in the most remote manner
in the convention, or suggested In the hotel
corridors. 1t was a clear case Of wasted
'boom."
The spontaneous" cabinet booms now in
progress probably have as much real basis
as the candidacy Of the uDmentioned Ohio
man for the presidency. II is also possible
that Gov. Cleveland will be able 20 make his
cabinet, independent Of the Blooms" II
is even probable that I've will be Sbundautly
able to announce his selections on the fourth
of March, without drawing on the news

STEADY industry, saving habits and self
respect are the virtues, which Fred Douglass
now tells the people of his race they ought to
practice if they would get on. 1t is almost
strange Mr.. Douglass had not thought to say
something of the kind before. II would have
been very useful to them to have been ad-
vised by him not to rely on legislation and
politics" as means of enabling them to
succeed without work, without economy and
without independence of character. Mr.
Douglass, however, has held Office himself and
TO keep in favor with his party has we'll nigh
deserted his people, at least he has done
nothing and said nothing calculated to direct
them into the avenue of becoming
useful to themselves personally and
of acquiring useful citizenship. At
last: when party has come into power that
it is the true friend of the colored man, Mr..
Douglass rushes forward to tell his people to
look for most from themselves and less from
politics. If the colored people could have
been told that ten or twenty years ago, there
Is no computation of the advancement they
might have made. But the policy of Doug
lass and the Republican party has been to
keep the colored men IN ignorance, to mis-
lead them with false hopes, for the selfish
purpose of holding them in political seryl-
tude. What Douglass now says, is what the
democratic party has always said, but it was
just what the black and white demagogues
Of the Republican party did not want the
colored people to either know or do. Had
he been manly or sincere he would moi have

this position. That he does it now is no credit
to him, for he has known all along that no
people can be legislated into prosperity.
What they are must come of their own force.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Dec. 2g.-The river coal
miners have abandoned for the present the
strike for an advance of half cent per
6ushel on the price of mining. Secretary
tlannery, Of the miners association, in a
circular to the strikers, says: "a visit among
the miners to-day has confirmed me in the
belief that the effort to make the suspension
general is failure at present. There is
great hardship among some of those we met,
and many are idle against their best wishes
and anxious to begin work even at the un-
Just Uncomfortable cent rate. Some miners
nave been at work two days, and others will

RATHER DIFFERENT FROM GRANT

President-elect Cleveland steadfastly re-
fuses to receive presents and thus shows his
observation-disclosures, his unselfshness and his
delicate sense of propriety. A very beneNo-
lent gentleman sent him a Newfoundland
pup the other day as a present, which he
promptly declined and returned with thanks
More recently gushing donor resident
in Binghampton, n. Y, sent him a
barrel OF rum which was declined and re-
turned instanter. 1t was gold-hooped, five
gallon cask of rum, having a gold faucet
bearing the following inscription in orna-
mental letters on the head:

The three RS that ''did II, Of course deli
cately aludes TO the Rev. DR.. Burchard's
famous alliterative effort.
The elegant cask was sent enclosed in a
walnut case, pink lined and accompanied by
letter. The Governor returusd the gift and
in doing so said:
My objections to the receipt OF presents does
not rest entirely upon their 'suggestiveness,' as
you term it, If you mean by that a suggestion Of
obligation in official conduct. ! am averse TO
gifts naturally, and because, IL they are
from stranger. see no reason why they shou d
be bestowed. My election 10 Office merely obliges
me TO perform the duties Of such Office for the
compensated allowed. / thank yon none the
less sincerely for your kindness, while / say
must decline your gift will return the same
by express tomorrow.
How different is this from Gen. Grant, who
accepted every possible commodity proffered,
whether bull pups, horses, carriages, houses
and untold articles Of Uirta, filing his house
with innumerable bric-brae treasures Of for
eign and domestic manufacture and presen-
tation. His accepted gifts were not confined
to this catalogue, but included princely dona-
tons of income producing sums of money.
THIS is an evidence of coarse fiber and not
of delicate sensbility, and the possession
of no sense Of improperly in accepting gifts
while holding office.

TINDICATED By CHANDLER.

Naval Secretary Chandler takes umbrsge
at the imputaiions cast upon Arthur's admin
istration OF being lukcwarm and indifferent
to Blsine's success, and OF giving the Re
publican ticket only pretended, quasi sup
port. Chandler says, on his own personal
knowledge, neither the President nor any
member OF the Cabinet lacked desire for Re
publican success, or failed TO do all that was
asked or reasonably have been expected OF
him to accomp lish.
But Brother Jones, chairman Of the nation
al committee OF Mr. Chambers party, takes
the opposite view, in which Mr. Blaine fully
shares. The followinging, in a letter written
Chandler, is meant for both Jones aud
Blaine, charging them with mismanaging
the cam paign:
L is very much 10 be regretted that the pen
dency Of the New York senatorial contest should
be made an occasion for elimination aud recrim-
ination within the Republican ranks; and Il is
especially indecent that the chairman OF the Re
publican national committee, resident in another
state, should enter the field for the sole purpose
o. falsely charging the president and his cabinet
with disoyalty to the party. and the president
with unsoundness on the tariff question Mr..
Jones was an unknown man when he was made
Quoted he party 10 defeat, lie certainly should
have hesitated before publicly undertaking 20
throw'the blame on some one else. IL is not my
intention in this letter to make counter attacks
upon the chairman or other members Of the ma
tional committee who managed tr mismapaged

which Mr.. Jones j. engaged is 10 be continued
there will certainly be quite as many blows given
as taken, 40 FAR as | am concerned. The inter-
ests of the Republican party should prevent such
a contest. II is completely within the power Of
the Tribune absolutely to arrest il before It as
sumes any new phase. Will YOU do itl
This threat TO give as well as take blows
is full of significance. 1t forebodes revela-
tons yet 10 be made Of a damaging character
to the ''parties liligant," as well as to the
Republican organization itself. Let the
Jones and Blaine faction strive to defeat Ar
thur for the Senate, and whether successful
or not, there viii be music along the whole
line. The old adage, ''When rogues fall
out" etc, is likely 10 be fully illustrated.
