The Remains of Private Whistler.

DELPHI, Ind, Aug. 15.-There is much ex- citement here over the Arctic cannibal sto- ries. The general impression prevails that Private Whistler's casket inferred Tuesday did not contain his remains or that they were mutilated. While the body lay in the court house corridor seven despatches were received from General Hazen urging instant interment and forbidding the opening of the casket. The last dispatch was especially importunate, saying the quicker the body went under ground the better. The remains are in the graveyard of Whistler's grandfather, a wealthy farmer. The latter to-day refused to give his opinion, but the casket will prob ably be exhumed tomorrow

But the hill pulled him down, and though he made the three-quar- ters in 1:37, the finish was too much. It was a magnificent sight, however, as amid 8 deathlike silence Bithers' voice could be heard urging him home and he answered nobly, but it was too much and he was lifted under the wire in BIO IA, only half sec ond behind the mares time and quarter be- hind his own
 After the race Bithers said to the United Press reporter that the two kings were never in better condition and had the track been as fast as the Narragansett, PhalIas would have made 2:12 and Jay-Eye-See 2:09. But withal Bithers is satisfied with the afternoons work and it is safe to say that not one of the inn mense crowd went away thinking that he had not had his moneys worth. Mir.

 NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-One of the crew of the Greedy expedition claimed to-day to have been disobeying orders in telling what he knew of the horrors of Cape Sabine. For this reason his name is not published. The man says that he was one of the party which removed the dead bodies from the graves be- hind the Greedy camp. When asked as to the fate of Dr. Pavy, who is reported to have died of starvation, the United Press inform ant said: ''That story is all wrong. The doc tor was court-martialled three times and at last he committed suicide. The skeleton found without head was that of Dr. Pavy. There were marks of 8 knife on several of the bones where the flesh had been cut off ''
 ''Did you find anything that led you to be- heve that others were shot as well as Private HenTy?'' ''Yes, we picked up thesbodies of two men who were found later to have been court-martialled and shot The teeth of one were found as black coal and we were sat isGed the man had been suffering from SCOT but. No flesh had been cut from the body owing to the fact that the poor fellow was diseased when he was put out of the way. Unmistakable marks of pistol shots were found on his body.''

Holiday Trade.
COLUMBIAN STORE.

Our merchants have opened their Christ
mas goods, and the stores have put on their
holiday attire. If you have not been to

who are looking for something nice for the
little folks. His stock of toys embraces
everything imaginable, and he has enough
to supply the whole county.

The only way to find out what each one
keeps is to go and see them.

snail We Hurry or Burn.

That our cemeteries do not respond to
the very highest idea touching the dead
may be admitted. The vicinity Of Gods
acre is not regarded altogether desirable as
mans dwelling place. And for sanitary
reasons chiefly. Sometimes the burial OF
the dead may be menace to health long
wears afterwards. 1t was only the other
day that an English paper cited the sudden
appearance of epidemic scarlet fever FOL
lowing the disnterment of bodies OF per-
sons who perished by that scourge many
years before. Supposing this to be fact
and we have no right to question it-who
will not agree that it would have been a
great deal better had those bodies been in
cinerated instead OF being buried in the
earth? Gods acre cannot remove itself
when the growth of cities reaches its
bound, and experience shows that the liv-
ing man becomes restive and aggressive un-
der the imposition of the dead hand. Right
here, at home we can see how progress
and improvements demands uninterrupted
field. The spirit of progress is in sense
ruthless, and will not be denied. Hence ii
| is that the question "Shall we bury oil
burn" begins to intrude itself upon human
consciousness. Discussion cannot settle it.
They must be left to the stern necessities
as they arise.-Phiia. North american.

that ii is put upon the stove containing the

foot hold he shouted for help to his
frightened companions, and then was drift

mediately given and search made for the
body, but up to a late hour Sunday even
ing no trace of it had been discovered,
save hat which was found near by.
While dragging the creek they came upon
the bleached skeleton of man. 1t is be-
lleved to be that of Charles Dougherty, a

Rest Cure,

Much attention of late has been given by
advanced thinkers to the system of cure
by REST as advocated by such eminent
specialists as Drs. Mitchell and Goodale of
Philadelphia. For the proper application
of this system the Bloomsburg, Pa, REST
CURE under the management OF Dr. Shat
tuck is probably unsurpassed by any sim
liar institution. 1t is noted for its pic.
turesque location and Is constructed upon
scientific principles, with modern conven.
fences for carrying out this system of
cure at moderate cost. The patient is first
put in condition for treatment by course
of baths, after which the Weir Mitchell
system of massage, electricity and rest are
skillfully applied II the case is such as
to require the complete REST CURE the pa
tient is put to bed, allowed to see no one
but the attendants, and is enjoined to give
up all thought or care OF home or business.
BY massage, which is scientific manipula-
ton, the circulation and nerve force are
equalized and the muscles receive neces-
sary exercise Electricity soothes and
strengthens the weak and irritable nerves
and through PERFECT REST nature COM
pletes the cure. The complete relaxation
of nerve tension by this method, enables
the recuperative powers of the system to
do their work completely, untrammeled by
irritating influences or depressing drugs. 1t
ia claimed by this treatment to effect
speedy cures, especially in nervous dis
orders of women in which the old systems
are slow, disagreeable, and so often fail.

A CHANCE TO GET THE BEST DEMOCRATIC

The New York World is acknowledged
to be the leading Democratic paper in the

city paper in addition to local one. We
have made arrangements with the Weekly
price of the Weekly World is $l.00, On
receipt OF SO 90 we will send the two pa
pers to any address in the county, for one
year. Clubs of five persons at one post Of
flee can get them for $1,000 if ordered at
one time. This is very liberal offer, and
is made for the purpose Of extending our
circulation and not because there is any
money in it.
We do not believe in the chrome busl-
ness. All the county newspapers are pub
lished at rates so low that the margin OF
profit is very small, and unless all subscri-
bers pay up, the loss is nearly equal to the
profits. We consider that our readers get
the full worth of their money out OF this
paper at $3.50 year, and we cannot af.
ford to give every subscriber II gold watch

this Every subscriber who will pay up
all arrearages and one year in advance will
receive for one year, Good Cheer, a monthly
paper devoted to the interests of home and
family, and containing much valuable

only for limited time, and all who wisl

FRANK TAYLOR.

CoURr.-"You were convicted by the
verdict OF jury of having, on the occasion
of parade in the borough of Berwick,
thrown a stone, which was in fact dead
ly weapon, of that weight and size that if
it had hit any person upon the hoad,
would have been very likely to produce
death, perhaps quite as likely as q shot
from revolver, and you may consider
yourself fortunate that the prosecutor here
was only wounded, and notskilled, by that
blow. So tar as appears, you had no par
ticular malice towards any one person
but the parade that was going on was Of.
fensive to you for some reason or other,
and, regardless of who might suffer by
your act, you hurled the stone, out of ma
licious mischief, showing heart regard
less of social duty, and fatally bent on mis-
| chief. He who thus interferes with a relig
ious meeting, social gathering or a pro
cession or parade commits highhanded
| offense against the rights Of citizens. Per-
| sons, whether as religious society or a
political organization or in any other law
ful capacity, have the right to assemble to-
| gether peaceably, and no man has the right
TO disturb them, and anyone, who, because
the gathering does not suit his ideas, un.
dertskes to inflict wounds upon the per-
sons engaged in it, has a bad heart. We
might send you to the penitentiary for this
oifense that you have committed, but, in
hopes that what we do will be sufficient SC
far as you are concerned and as an example
to others in like cases offending, we have
concluded not to do so. The sentence OF
the court is that you, Frank Taylor, pay a
fine OF fifteen dollars to the commonwealth
and the costs of prosecution, that you un
dergo Imprisonment in the Jail of Colum
