Cure for piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by
a sense of weight in the back, loins
and lower part ofthe abdomen, caus-
ing the patient to suppose he has
some affection of the kidneys or
neighboring organs. At times,
symptoms of indigestion are present,
as fatulency, uneasiness of the stom-
ach, ect. A moisture, like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable
itching, after getting warm, is a COM
mon attendant Blind, Bleeding and
Itching Piles yield at once to the ap-
plication OF DIR. Bosanko's Pile Rem,
edy. which acts directly upon the
parts affected absorbing the Tumors,
allaying the intense itching, and ef-
fecting a permanent cure. Price 80

Fiendish Train Wrecking.

WHEELING, w. Va, JAM |, 1885.
About s O'Clock this morning pas
senger train No. 6, west bound, over
the Baltimore and Ohio road, was
thrown fronm the track about a
mile east of Grafton. The engineer
and fireman were killed, the mail
agent and a number of passengers
were seriously injured, and the en-
CINE and tender wrecked. From
details received in this city it is
learned that the accident was de-
liberate attempt to wreck the train
by blocking the switch. About 20
minutes before No. 3 was due, a
freight train, also east bound, pass
ed the switch in safety. No sooner
had the freight train passed than a
man, presumably discharged EN-
ploye, placed a triangular piece OF
iron, previously prepared, in the
frog of the switch, the effect of
which would be to derail train
running over it. In few moments
the passenger train approached,
running at the rate of thirty miles
an hour. On striking the frog the
engine at once left the track, the
tender, mail and express cars
following.

Unable TO Pay Taxes.

HUNTINGDON, Dec. 31.-The Coun-
ty Commissioners, who were in ses
sion yesterday and to-day settling
with the collectors of delinquent
taxes, allowed the claim of the col
leclor for Carbon township for ex-
oneration from taxes of one hun
dred and seventy citizens of that
township, who, it was alleged, were
unable to pay and could not be COM
PEELED to do so. The application
for so large number of exonera
tions in single district, the taxabl'
population OF which does not exceed
three hundred, is unprecedented.
The people of the township are en-
tirely dependent on the mining III
terest, which is exceedingly depress-
ed and partially suspended. In the
agricultural districts the claims for
exoneration were not more numer-
Gus than in other wears.

cIeveIand's Proposed Policy.

CHICAGO, January 1.-The daily
News publishes an interview with
ex-Congressman Jay A. Hubbell, of
Michigan. He says: Il don't be-
lieve that Presldent.elect Cleveland
can carry out the civil service laws
and survive his Presidential term.
The pressure that will be brought to
bear on Mr.. Cleveland will be terri
BILE, and if he withstands the ava
ianche of office-seekers he will de.
serve the gratitude of the Republic.
Such course on his part would
have a tendency to break up exist
ing political organizations and result
in the formation of conservative
party"

The Philadelphia Press announc-
es that Chairman /. u. Mckee, of
the Independent Republican State
Committee, Eat the request of" mem
bers of that committee in various
sections of the State" is preparing a
circular addressed to the members
of his committee, calling uponIthem
TO get the Independents together In
their respective districts, for the pur-
pose of ascertsining their senti-
ments and passing resolutions pro-
testing against the reelection of Sen
ator Cameron, so that in the event
of another Independent movement,
in the gubernatorial campaign two
years hence, Dir. Cameron's friends
cannot have it to say that the lnde-
pendents allowed them to re-elect
him without some warning of the
consequences"
That the Independents have a
right to protest against the election
of Mr.. Cameron, or any other man,
is unquestioned. Our object in no.
ticing their proposed action, as set
forth by their sympathizing friend
the Press, is to call the attention of
all true Republicans to the fact, that
while declaring that past differences
are at an end, and the party is
once more united, these Indepen-
dents are keeping up an organization
=ithin the party lines, looking TO
another bolt two years hence, if they
are not permitted to dictate the CUB
ernatorial candidate. This is moth
ing more nor less, than premedltated
treason to the party, to which they
profess TO belong, and an expressed
determination to ruin If they cannot
rule it. 1t is an attempt by an or
ganized clique Of politicians, to
"boss' the party nominations, and
failing to do this to defeat the candi,
dates. In the light of the expert
ment of 1882, the people are moi
likely to be easily led astray by
these schemers, but they should
keep their eyes on the plotters who
are preparing to again betray the
Republican party into the hands Of
its enemies, unless they are allowed
to control it. We were band OF
brothers " during the Presidential
campaign, when their favorite was
the candidate, but his defeat having
been brought about by the force OF
their example and teachings, they
turn around and propose to knife
the men who sank all personal SEN
timents, in loyalty to party, and
gave their petted candidate 81 ,000
majority in the Keystone State.

Sleeping Tramps Badly scaided.

Eight of the men were severely

that two OF. them cannot survive.
The men were panic stricken, and
found much difficulty in escaping
