G. w. Mellicr, of 400 South Fourth
street, St. Louis, is twenty years of age,
and has been n sufferer from chronic
catarrh, which had become quite often
siye. When he came to DR.. Hartman, two
months ago, he was told it would take six
months to cure him. But he has pro-
gressed beyond oil expectations, and
nearly all signs of the disease have dis
appeared. Before being treated he could
not breathe out of the nose, and now he
has perfect control of the nasal organ.
PERUNA did the business.
lanes Dunn, of 1910 Gay street, st.
Louis, has suffered from catarrh since
1870. The gentleman told the reporter
the following straightforward story of
his case. II took the disease i'll Mem
phis. 1t commenced in my head and
extended TO my throat, and n bad cough
followed. went to n number Of ply
sicans, and they told me my trouble was
liver disease, and one sad il was palplta-
ton of the heart that caused the cough,
For the last year | have been practically
worthless. could not ascend Il fight Of
stairs without suffering from shortncss of
breath and fast beating of the heart, and
my appetite was very defective. After
eating | often coughcd SO hard that I
would throw up everything III my stom-
ach. | could not walk any distance with
out painting. Five weeks ago l went
under the care of DIR. Hartman. and now
my cough has disappeared and feel like
n new man." PERUNA was his treat
ment.
Next came George Sauerbaum, residing
at 1920 Carr street, st. Louis, who is an
old patient of DIR. Hartman. He stated
that he had suffered most intensely from
chronic catarrh of the head and lungs, but
is now almost cured, his lungs being en-
tirely we'll and his head greatly improved.
The gratitude of this gentleman was
almost boundless, and he expressed it to
the reporter in the strongest terms, say
ing PERuNA will cure any disease"

A Burst Boiler.
Five Men Killed by an Explosion
Near Pottsville.

POTTsvILLE, Jan. 19.-At Good
Spring, a small station at the Schuyl-
kill and Susquehannah branch of the
Philadelphia and Reading railroad yes
terday afternoon. the boiler Of Ahra-
ham Earnst's saw mill exploded with
terribly fatal effect, five men being kill
ed outright. The mill has been run by
Earnst for fifteen years, making mine
timber for the Philadelphia and Read
ing Coal and Iron Company's Collieries
in the west end of the county. 1t en-
ploys from eight to ten men. To-day
half the force were in the woods, some
distance from the mill, loading and
hauling logs. About 2 O'Clock the ex-
plosion occurred. 1t is supposed to
have been caused by a defect in the
boiler. The killed are Albert Earnst,
aged twenty years, ,..son of the mil. own
er's brother; Henry Collier, aged twen-
ty-seven years, having wife and four
children; Jacob Gehres ,aged thirty five
years. haying a wife and five children,
and two others, whose names have not
been learned. Good Springs is an iso-
lated place anc difficult to reach.
All the bodies were terribly manglei
and parts of them haye been picked up
four OF five hundred yards from the
scene.

merits and demerits of the bill itself
were mentioned.
Everything goes on well with the
Monument dedication, and Presiden-
tial Inauguration managers. The gath
ering here, especially on the 4th of
March, will be greater even than has
heretofore been expected. Funds are
being subscribed by all classes of peo-
pie. and citizens without regard to par
ty are at work upon the committees.
Reports from every section are to the
effect that hardly township will be
unrepresented.
For some reason unknown to the out
slider, there has been lately much less
confidence among Republican clerks
here in regard to their places than
there was a month ago. 1t seems to be
understood among them that the AK
will fall heavily. III.

Washington News and Gossip.

WASHINGTON, d. C.,January IL, 'S5.
There has been a remarkable change
of opinion during the past week or at
least two of the measures before the
House. And it is change which prom
ises to make laws of at least those two
measures. One is the Grant retirement
bill, and the other is the Blair Educa-
tional bill. In the telegraphic reports
sent from here yesterday was a state
ment that the House Military Commit
tee had voted, six or two, against re-
porting a bill retiring Grant, but a.
mother bill for the same purpose was re-
ported, and l doubt not the House will
take very prompt action when the SUBJ
ject comes up, and such action as will
put Grant on the retired list before
March.
The Educational bill has grown in
favor wonderfully of late. 1t is getting
active and general support from the
South. section which has heretofore
seemed strangely Indifferent on the
subject. l say strangely for two-thirds
Of the seventy millions to be expended
will 60 to the one-third of population
known as "the South" Put down the
Educational bill as one that will be
passed in time to receive President Az
thurs approval.
The net result Of the present weeks
work has been the passage of the
French Spoliation Claims bill, vener-
able bill which has come down to us
from former generations. The claims
are as old as the Government. Claim.
ants are simply permitted to 90 before
the Court of Claims after which, if the
court finds anything due, Congress will
make the necessary appropriations. 1
was in the House gallery during the
last days debate on this bill ,and noted,
with great deal of satisfaction, that
party and section had nothing whatev-
er to do with it. Representatives from
New England and. Louisiana and Ala
bama and the West united without a
thought of locality in favor of opposing
the bill.
Your readers will perhaps hardly be-
lieve me at first, but this is the only
House debate for twenty years on any
important subject. in which party or
section had not some place. But it is
true, so far as can remember. Con-
gress has hardly buried Senator or
Representative in the last decade, with
out.a reference in the obituaries to the
late war. or to 1.-THE South" or to "the
North" or to the services of the de-

THERE is at least one class of work
ing people who thus far remained eX-
empt from the general reduction of
wages and by all appearances will be
spared in the -future-the domestic
servants. Cooks, Coachmen, servant
girls and stablemen, who generally
have more steady employment, than
mechanical laborers, seem to be better
taken care of than factory hands, min
ers and the like.
