TIE Root of the Evil.

To thoroughly cure scrufua it is neces-
sary to strike directly at the root of the
evil. This is exactly what Hoods Slrsa-
parila does, by acting upon the blood
thoroughly cleansing it OF all impurities
and leaving not even a faint OF scro:ula in
the vi'ai fluid. Thousands who have been
cured OF >crofuls by Hoods Sarsaparilla
testify To its wonderful hlood-purifying
qualities. Sold by all druggists.

The decrease during the last ten years IN

Madrid Special: 1t is reported that 800
persons are buried beneath the ruins of the
buildings of Abuneales. Three churches at
Antquera are left in tottering condition.
The inhabitants have escaped into the fields.
A fatal landslide occurred III a mountain near
Periana and destroyed many houses which
stood in its path, and buried forty eight per-
SONS. Eighteen were rescued alive. 1ele-
graph lines in Adalusia are useless IN conse-
quei,ce of the earthquake. In Malaga the loss
exceeds $50, 600 Twenty seven houses were
damaged more or less. After the earth
quake there was a religious procession
headed by aa bishop Ewh implored di-
v1ne mercy There were renewed shocks
in various places afterward and further damage
at Cordovar The inhabitants are in panic
Vienna Cable: A violent earthquake shock
was experienced in Corinthia to-day. 1t ia
impossible to get the real damage done, but it
la reported great Several persons are known
to have been killed, while rnmor has it that the
fatility is very large Buildings were racked
and many damaged. A panic among the pop
ulace is the result, and many persons refuse to
re- enter their dwellings. Thousands of per-
SONS are on the street and in open spaces, fear
ing q REPETITION of the shock The panic wae
heightened by The reports of the recent upheav-
ais in Spain wherein nearly athousand persona

Moorhead (Minn.) News: There is an occa-
aional down-easter that finds his way to the
beautiful hs growing Red River valley. If fthey
drop in in the winter season they are frozen to
death before they leave the platform OF the
special car. Two Union City, Mich, men
came to town One Of them is full-fedged
Dakotian and does not mind little fresh pure
air. The other is prominent lawyer, nsed to
damp swampy air, which is product Of Mlchi-
gan. The first thing after leaving the cars in
Moorhead, this attorney placed his hands to
his ears and declared they were frozen He
did not see how anybody could live in this
dod gasted country. The facts are that the
mercury was only Sc below zero and the sun
was shining as bright IS Lake George dia-
mond; the air was as pure as home made but
ter with the wig left out; the gentle zephyrs
were singing their key note melodies; each
drug store was selling an unusual large amount
OF fly PAPER; every female seen on the street
had a fan and parasol attachment; every live
dude was wearing linen duster and knee
breeches; coal and wood were drug on the
market, yet this lawyer was cold How q
northwesterner's sympathy reaches out for
such poor fellows. What pity it is that they
are obliged to live in a cold, damp country like
Michigan. Poor fellow; poor fellow

Fargo Argus: In an interview with an Ar
gus reporter, W. W. Bowers, ono of the prison,
ers from Wilmot, gave 3 short synopsis Of the
county seat trouble in Roberts county. He
said that Gas votes were cast in all, giving
Wilmot majority of 1874 for county seat
When the county commissioners met and can
vassed the election returns, they threw out the
vote Of Lake and Garfield districts, amounting
to 2S4, which would give Traverse majority
of 33 Before the board of canyassers got
through their work q mandamus was served
on the commissioners, but as the papers were
defective new ones were made out, but the
commissioners had gone across the line to
Minnesota. When the residents of Wilmot
and vicinity heard Of the actions of the COM
missioners, they left for Traverse forty one
men in ally and took the safe and records to
Wilmot where they remain at tho present
time Mr.. Bowers, the druggist, is one of the
prisoners brought here from Wilmot, charged
with interfering with the United States mail,
further says that no violence was used by any
one and that he was not even in tho party that
stopped the buggy containing the mail. II. h.
Hougey, judge of probate, another Of the pris-
oners, was in bed at the time the buggy WAS
stopped.

New York Special: A reporter who visited
Gen. Grant found him still suffering great
deal from the accident to his log year ago
81 have not been at all well Of late, he said,
My throat has bothered me a great deal for
months past A couple of weeks ago it was so
bad that was unable to speak"
When questioned about the statement con-
cerning his financial affairs, he said
2 1t is in the main true While Gen. Sherman
did call on me, neither he nor mentioned the
subject On leaving mo the general had a long
talk with my son. 1t was not till some time
afterward that my son told me that the general
had spoken to him about my affairs. would
not for the world say word that would re-
fleet upon Mt Vanderbilt He has all along
acted in u most honorable and straig htforward
manner toward me. Hehas certainly shown
very generous disposition.
s.It seems too bad, general to think that you
should be deprived of all your property, inclu-
ding all the mementoes that you have been ac-
cunlulatng for years. But do you not think
that your friends will come to Your rellef!n
Resting his elbows on the desk before him,
the general partially hid his face in his hands
and seemed agitated as he replied:
l am perfectly willing to make whatever
sacrifices necessary in order to liquidate my
indebtedness What Mr. Field has done in the
premises do not know. | have not seen him
in about q year. would rather not say any
thing on the subject myself.
Cyrus w. Field, Stephen B. Elkins, and
Hamilton Fish, who was Gen. Grants secre-
tary of state, held meeting at Mr.. Fields Of
fee for the further consideration of the plar
on foot to relieve the ex president of his deb
of 100000 to William Ii. Vanderbilt At Mr..
Fields suggestion Mr. Fish had drawn up
subscription paper on which several gentlemen
have already placed their names opposite 81, ,OOC
subscriptions. Mr. Elkins had a long confer
ence with General Grant recently, at which
| the question of whether Gen. Grant can be
| held as q partner of Grant & Ward is said tc
have been discussed. 1t is said here thai
| whatever fund is raised will be placed in the
hands of trustees. If it were paid to Mr.
Vanderbilt direct, as was the original intention
| and the property released, it might be subiec
at once to an attachment by the other creditors
of Grant Il Ward.
