lads thus treated turn out well, and Massa-

reality prisoners, and as such are treated.

To begin with, there is degree of dig

and its members which permeates even to

temptation of the sober side of life. and

Through this aisle the Judges file and take

taken, and to this end a meeting of private
retail dry good dealers was held. The pro-
ceedings were not divulged but it is
! thought the organization of the dealers
made the Union men more desperate, and
impelled them to use dynamite.
Thomas Garry, of Garry Bros, said :;
of course the Equality Association is at
the bottom of the outrage What surprises
me is that they have done nothing worse
They made threats of all kinds, but we
were inclined to look for their execution

Uprising of the Yaqui Indians.

GUAYMAs, February 1st-The uprising
of the Yaquis, which was a rumor, has
some foundation in fact Early last week
party of mixed Mexicans and Indians
left here under command of one Molino to
murder Cajeme, the chief of the Yaquis.
He had word of their being on the way,
and when they arrived at TORN, where he
usually lives, he was away. They ill-treated
his wife and burned his corn crop, and
took some of the Yaquis prisoners. He
returned after they left, and gathering a
force routed them and recovered the pris-
oners, etc. This was the origin of the ru-
NOR, and every train since has brought in
large number of ranchmen and their
families, as the word had gone out that
Cajeme was on the warpath. Molino claims
to have papers proving that he acted by
orders. A company of Federal troops are
now at Batamotal. Further developments
are expected in few days as the Project
of the district is now at Batamotal, some
twelve miles from here.

CHOLERA AND MARRIAGE.

Statistics are responsible for some strange
developments. Thus, the municipality Of
Paris has just issued a pamphlet, attested
with all the official formality of that cor
poration, certifying that, if statistics prove
anything, they establish the fact that mar
riage and cholera disagree. That marriage
is species of insurance against the assaults
of the epidemic The published figures
treat of the late scourge in Europe, ard
the exhibit is of deaths by cholera per
100000 male inhabitants Thus, of those
between p and so years of age, 81 single
and but q married men died. From 50 to
80 years Of age, IS single and but q mar
ried men died. From 10 to Is, 152 single
men fell victims and but 45 married men
died. From 80 to 80 years. 167 single and
but 81 married men were laid low 1t will
be observed that the older the bachelor
grows the heavier the proportion OF
chances bear against him, according to
these figures. We have very little conf
dence in the reliability of such statistics
nevertheless, the figures prove at least one
thing: that those with homes and wives
probably receive better care in the disease
and thus their chances of recovery are en-
HANGED. So, toe, it is reasonable to draw
the inference that even in France the mar
ried man is of so much more settled habits
that his system is better prepared to resist
the assaults Of the disease The figure,
are, however, curious, and in that light
worth the reproduction we give them.

THE TAILOR PREsIDENT.-A wedding
coat made by Andrew johnson will be
shown in the Tennessee exhibit at the
New Orleans Exhibition. The coat was
made in Johnsons little tailor shop in
Greenville, Tenn, in 1888 or 1889, for H.
T. Price of that town. The garment is
made of the best navy blue cloth, cut in
the old-fashioned claw hammer style. The
collar and lapels are very broad and there
are five large buttonholes on each side.
When the coat was made there were twelve
large brass buttons, five on each side, and
two behind, besides the small ones on the
cuffs of the sleeves. All the buttons are
now missing except two on the right breast
With the exception of the loss Of the but
tons the coat is in good state of preserva-
ton. None of the seams are ripped, and
there is not hole worn in the cloth.

Condiments and Indigestion.

Cayenne pepper may beselected as typ
zeal example of a cOndiment properly so
called. Mustard is food and condiment
combined; this is the case with some 9TH
ers. Curry powders are mixtures of very
potent condiments with more or less of
tarinaceous materials, and sulphur COM
pounds, which, like the oil of mustard, of
onions, garlic, etc, Nay have certain
amount of nuritive value. The mere con-
diment is a stimulating drug that does its
work directly upon the inner lining of the
stomach, by exciting it to increased and
abnormal activity. A dyspeptic may obtain
immediate relief by using cayenne pepper.
Among the advertised patent medicines is
pill bearing the very ominous name of its
compOunder, the active constituent of which
is cayenne. Great relief and temporary
comfort are commonly obtained by using
it as " dinner-pill.n If thus used only as
a temporary remedy for an acute
and temporary, or exceptional, at
tack of indigestion, all is well, but
the cayenne, whether taken in pills
or busted over the food stewed with 1t III
curries or any otherwise, is one of the most
cruel of slow poisons when taken habit
ually Thousands of poor wretcheS are
crawling miserably toward their graves,
the victims of the multitude of maladles OF
both mind and body that are connected
with chronic, incurable dyspepsia, all
brought. about by the habitual use of cay
enne pepper and its continental cousins.
The usual history of these victims is that
they began by overlooking, took the condi-
ment to force the stomach to do more than
its healthful amount of work, using but a
little at first. Then the stomach became
tolerant of this little, and demanded more !;
then more, and more, and more, until at
last inflammation, liberation, torpidity, and
finally the death of the digestive powers,
accompanied with all that long train of
miseries to which l have referred.-[W-
