A Great Sea on Fire.

The shores of the Caspian abound in
naphtha springs extending for miles
under the sen, the imprisoned gases of
this volatile substance often escaping
from tissurcs in its bed and bubblipg up
in large volumes to the surface. This cir
cumstance has given rise to the practice
of "sctting the sea on fire." which is thus
described by traveller:
"Iliring a steam-barge, we put out to
sea, and, after lengthy search, found at
last Il suitable spot Or boat having
moved round to wind ri sailor threw
a bandle of burnir, flax into the sea,
when floods of light dispelled the sur
ro nding darkness. No fireworks, no
illuminations, are to be compared to the
sight that present ID itself to our gaze.
1t was as though the sea trembled CON-
vul,ively amid thousands of shooting,
dancing tongues of fame of prodigious
size Now they emerged from the water,
now they disappeared. At one time they
spared aloft and melted away; at another
gust of wind divid d them into bright
strcaks of flame, the foaming, bubbllng
billows making music to the scene.
I'm compliance with the wishes OF
some of the spectators our barge was
stccrcd toward the fam,s, and passed
right through the m dst Of them, some.
what dangerous exp r.ment, as the barge
was employed il the transport of naph-
tha, and was pretty we'll saturated with
the fluid. However, we escaped with
out accident, and gazcd for an hour
longer on the unwontsd spectacle of a
sea on fire."

Clay That Cures Rheumatism.

A wonderful electric pit recently dis
covered three miles from Sharon, Ga, is
eTecting hundreds of cures from rheu-
matism. A farmer named Hillman was
prospecting for gold. In little bend of
Harden's creek, where the bank rises
abruptly, Mr.. Hillman observed some
strange discolorations of the soil. He
began digging, and finally desistcd when
he could discover no METAL deposit. A
negro who was aiding Hillman had long
been tlicted with rheumatism. He no
ticed that whenever he handled the oozy
clay in the pit that the muscles of his
hands relaxed, permitting him to use
them with oil natural ease. When Hill
man abandoned the pit, disappointed in
b 8 search for gold, his employe left it
surprised at his freedom from the rheu-
matism of years.
The story soon spread, and people be-
gan making Sunday visits to the strange
spot. Rheumatics resorted thereto, and
began to confirm the experience OF Hill
mans servant. Mr.. j. P. Moore, we'll
to-do farmer, who had been unable to
use his hands, after burying them twice
in the soft mud of the pit found th"m
fully restored to usefulness. A well
known white lady from Warren county,
who was badly drawn up, visited tho
pit, and walked away declaring herself
cured. Charles Galway (colored,, who
for ten years walked on crutches, after
one visit to the spot left his crutches be-
hind him and walked home.
The most wonderful cure related is
that OF colored house servant Of Gen
eral Heard. This woman was perfect
wreck from rheumatism. A year ago
she went to bed, and since has had to be
waited upon like child. When the vir-
tues of the pit wele first mooted her
friends conclude +! to try it. The woman
was carried on her bed to the spot, where
she was rubbed over with the mud twice.
The result was that the woman took up
her bed and walked home.
The spot is in a dense thicket, rem.
dercd7 almost impenetrable by laurel
growth Hundreds of people are resort
ing thither, as a matter of curiosity.
The water flows in sufficiently to keep
tie clay in q waxy condition. BY ap-
plying this clay to the parts afflicted it
wields some kind of influence which af-
fords relief. The only theory advanced
is that the mud must be charged with
electricity sufficient to effect the cures
mentioned.-.Neao York Sun.

Something About Cntarrh.

Something ABOUT Cutarrns
A great many people are afflicted with ca
tarrh " no do not know what ais them; and
a great many more continue sufferers who
might be cured,
Thickening Of the membrane which lines
the nasal passages, thus making breathing
difficult; a discharge from the nostrils, more
or less cop:ous, watery or thick, according to
the stage of the disease; a sense Of fullness In
the head; a constant inclination to spit; and,
in advanced cases, dropping Of intensely dis
gusting matter into the throat, arc few OF
the prominent symptoms Of Catarrh.
Deafness, infamed eyes, neuralgia pains,
sore throat and loss Of sense Of smell are
very often caused by Ca'arrh.
All these troubles are cured by Piso's Rem
edy for Catarrh. Relief Is had Immediately
after beginning Its use, but 1t Is important
that it be continued without interruption until
the catarrhal virus Is expelled from the sys-
tenn and healthy secretions replace tho dis
eased action Of the mucous membrane. Man
ifestly it is unreasonable to expect o cure In
short time of disease that has been progress
ing for months or years.
This question of time is provided for in the
putting up Of Piso's Remedy for Catarrh. tits
go concentrated that a very small dose Is d.
rected. The quantity in one package Is suffi-
cient for r long treatment. consequently tho
expense is mere trifie, and there Is no excuse
for neglect nor reason for 1t but forgetfulness.
A cold in The head is relieved by an applica-
tion of Piso's Remedy for Catarrh. The oom-
fort to be got from it in this way Is worth
many times the cost.
The following letters are specimens Of those
received evory day, tesiifying to the worth Of
Pisos Remedy for Catarrh:
ALLEGHENY, Pa, Sept. &c, 1885.
Piso's Remedy for Catarrh is doing wonders

tarrh, If usc according to directions.

A Eort.Yates Fire.

The Bismarck Tribune gives the follow
ing account of the fire at Fort Yates last
week: "At 10:45 this morning the firing
of cannon and the shrill blast of trumpets
sounding the fire call announcedto the
troops that hand-to hand fight with
flames was upon them. Notwithstanding
the intense cold (31 degrees below zero),
the companies manifested their readiness
for the emergency. and gave another evil
dence OF. tho excellent military discipline
at the post. Within three minutes after
the alarm sounded. every officer and SOL
dier. well equipped with buckets, axes,
hooks, ladders, etc.. were on their way to
the agency--the scene of the fire. Three
dwelling-houses belonging to Mr. H. $.
Parkin were wrapped in flames, and on
account of the high wind the agency and
post were endangered but, by the timely
and efficient efforts of the troops, the
buildings were pulled down and the fire
prev ented from extending further. The
loss is estimated at 5000; no insurf
ance."

We believe we cannot do greater SER
vice to our settlers, says the Darlington
News, than to urge upon them the expe-
dicncy of giving II fair trial to the Dakota
Ignite coal. All who can afford to buy
first-class self feeding heater and lay in
for the winter full supply of hard coal,
regardless of the cost involved, will no
doubt have the best fire at the least
trouble. But, having tried the Ignite, we
contend that it affords more heat for less
money than any other fuel in Dakota.
Ignite is essentially the poor settlers
fuel If he will take the pains to study
its peculiarities and to learn how to use
it. he will certainly have q growing app
probation of the value of this fuel The
very fact that in such inexhaustible guam
titles it lies right underneath our feet in
so many localities and in such vast areas
in Dakota, is of itself almost sufficient
proof that it is there as u prime necessity
to our comfort. The objections that have
been made to its use arc not Inherent in
the article itself, but are the result SIMPLY.
!. of treating it like other Goals. We shall.
by and by, have stoves that are perfcctly5
adapted to it, just as we have snow,fef
anthracite. But we repeat that any stove
with large firebox and close barred
CRATE will burn it fairly WE'LL
The RECORD will add that those in this
ncighbcrhood who are using Ignite are
enthusiastic in its praise.
