The simple order given by Chief Braup,
OF the Pittsburg police, to Consul S,ham
berg to haul down the German flag that
he had placed ovec his doorway on the
Emperor Williams bIrthday,may give rise
to grave International complications. The
German authorities are Tery indignant and
talks of pushing tho matter. The chief
claims that as no arrest was made nothing
can come Of the matter, and his friends
declare that he will not apologize. There
seems to be cause for censure in both
parties 10 the squabbe. The German

IT has recently been developed why Bob
Ingersoll who made the famous nominating
speech for Blaine in Chicago four years
ago. has now become SO lukewartn in the
cause of the Plumed Knight. Blaine WAS
willing to allow iueorsoll to work might
and main for him, bat hs was dsuclined
to make any effort to return tho favor, aud
when the famous infdel's family came
to Washington no effort was made BY
j. G. Is. to obtain for them the social
consideration that would have been
naturally given them as the friends OF the
ex.speakeT. Seeing that his Maine friend
was entirely willing TO make profit from
his friendships while doing nothing in
return, the eloquent Bob has dropped out
of the Blaine procession, and an awful
silence now settles around his mouth
whouever the doomed Knights" name
Is mentioned.

This is one of the greatest veNatians which
careful housekeepers have to contend with, and
their depredatlons are not to be PenefIied after
they have once made inrOads. Houses heated by
furnaces are especially predsposed to have
moths, but every h0uSekeeper must he the
watch for them, for, from the time the windows
begin to be left open the trouble begin. Heavy
carpets sometimes do net require taking up every
year. unless IN constant use. Take cut the tacks
from these, fold the carpets back wash the floor
i'll strong suss, with a Tablespoonful of boraX
dissolved in them. Dash with insect powder or
lay tobacco leaves along the edge and retaek.
All moths can be kept away aud the eggs de
stroyed by this means,
Ingram or other carpets, after shaking are
frightened by sprlnkiing pound of salt over
the surface and sweeping carefully and
thoroughly. 1t is also an eXeellent plan to wipe
off the carpet with bOraX water, using q thick
flannel cloth wrung tightly, taking care not to
wet it, but only to dampen. Open the windows
and dry theearpet before replacing the furniture.
Other wOalens, including blankets and wear
ing apparel must be beaten and brushed and
folded smoothly. Be careful to clean every
grease spot with ammonia and water not too
strong and a dark WOODEN cloth Tie pieces of
campher into little bundles and put one in each
article Wrap the articles in newspapers as
printers ink is great preventive of moths, and
then sew them up in strong sheeting bags,
labeled, so that it will not be necessary to open
them during the summer, except for use. This
is good way for those who do not possess cedar
boxes, and the Articles need have 40 other care,
if every spot is treated as directed, and the gar-
ments not left hanging i'll the closet too long
before putting away for the season

THE W EEKLY JOURNAL.

In order to place the WEEKLY INDIANA
STATE JOURNAL in the home of every Repub
ican in the State, and thus do good campaign
service for the Republican party, we have de-
cided to send the paper till after the presiden-
tial election for so cents This will include

ket reports; its editorials are political, social
and general; it has the news of the State
and of the city; it has record
of the proceedings of Congress; ii will have a
complete report of the national conventions at
Chicago. Its literary and miscellaneous fea-
lures are of the best.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is newspaper that
should be in every family in Indiana, and at
the price named for it there is no reason why
it should not be, at least during the exciting
and important campaign upon which the
country is about to enter Political COM
mittees cannot do better than to see that
copies of THE WEEKLY JOURNAL are placed
in the hands of those persons in their
counties who are not now readers OF
some sound Republican paper. The
tariff question Is the one issue which
is likely to be most prominently dis
eussed, and to this the journal pays especial
attention, advocating the maintenance of the
principle of protection to American industry
in whatever revision of the tariff laws may be
nsde necessary in the future developments of
business and. Labor In this question the
farming community is deeply Interested. and
the discussions of the Journal will be
largely directed to the agricultural aspects of
the question

Indiana that publishes regularly Ten Pages

campaign, despite the low price Send in
