A New Woman Craze in the East.

A little fodder plant has been discovered that
removes nervous exhaustion and nervousness at
once. 1t makes big appetite, sweet sleep. and
gives double powers of endurance, while it is
harmless, tasteless, and neither a medicine nor
stimulant. There is great excitement over it
everywhere. 1t is said to stop the liquor habit,
and to remove the effects OF dissipation and over
indulgence at once. Druggists sell it. 1t is
very cheap They call it Moxie Nerve Food. If
true we are not surprised the women are excited
over it. 1t will make the use Of medicine I'M
necessary half the time. The doctors commend
it. Its sale is said to be unparalleled First,
the women went wild over it for nervous exhaus-
ton and effects of severe physical and mental
overstrain. Now it is ascertained that it will
stop the liquor habit and remove the effects of
dissipation and physical abuses at once. A huge
company has been formed, and Chicago is to
have a mandatory at 33 North State street.
There is perfect craze over it in Washington
and large cities East. Everybody drinks it. from
the President down. They call it Moxie Nerve
Food. The doctors say it is harmless, being
neither medicine, stimulant nor poison. 1t is
exceedingly popular among the elite of the big
cities. It is rapidly substituting the use of
stimulants, tonics and fancy drinks. The wom-
en- swarm after it. The churches and moral as
sociations give it their influence, as it is desti
tute of alcohol, gives great powers of endurance.

its sale is unparalleled. We welcome it.

MILWAUKEE, Aug 14-No Immediate danger
now exists to the towns in northern Wisconsin,
included in the track of the forest fires. Heavy
rains fell in sections Of middle and northern Wis
consin, and while not extinguishing the flames,
subdued them considerably.
In other places the forests are still ablaze.
The people of Stiles. Spencer and Colby spent a
night Of terror. Early during the evening Of
Friday fire suddenly advanced toward
that part of the village of Spencer not
destroyed week ago. The sheet OF
flames Is described as having been over one+nun-
dred feet high, and creating q roar that could be
heard for miles. The villagers moved cut in
body, some fleeing to Romeo, others encamping
on the territory burned over on Sunday. Wagon
loads of goods formed a caravan to neighboring
towns. At Stiles similar scenes were enacted.
People buried their effects to save them from
destruction. As the people were about despair.
ing Of saving the towns showers of rain fell,
early this morning, and averted the apprehended
are more reassuring. However, heavy and con-
tinued rains alonnWilI stay the destruction.

kind o. familiar ring about it, so consistent
with its authors well-known reputation for
truth and veracity. like it because it arraigns
the Republicans for everything. Now, as a mat
ter of fact, the Republicans have not had control
Of the Indiana Legislature since 1873, but that
little item cuts no figure in the platform. The
party is like the numbering big boy. who was
about to receive a gentle parental admonition
for killing the cat: But Benny made me do it."
When the Democrats came into power, after
the Republicans had paid the old internal
improvement debt and met the enormous ex-
penses OF the war period and were running
things economically, the Democrats adopted
policy that at reversed all this, and resorted
to Temporary Loan of few hundred thou

President Lincoln's Substitute in the War.


President Lincoln's Substitute in the War.
Washington Critic
president Lincoln had q substitute in the
war, said Mr. Noble D. Larner, while talking
over old times in Washington, and he was cred
tied to the Third ward of this city. It in
the winter of 1896 that General Fry, then
provost marshal here sent for me and told me
that the President wanted substitute to go to
the war for him. At that time was connected
with the Third Ward Draft Club, the principal
object of which was to secure substitutes for
members who might be drafted. There lived in
our ward son of clergyman who bore the
usual reputation given to ministers sons and he
was naturally "a ne'er do we'll This fellow was

Cardinal Gibbons's Opinion of the Knights.
BALTIMORE. Aug. 14-The American will
print. tomorrow, an interview with Cardinal
gibbons, In which he says: Cardinal Tasche-
reaus condemnation Of the Knights of labor
should not be taken as the sentiment of the
.church toward that organization. / am not
familiar with the labor organization in Quebec,
put 1t is certain that the Cardinals hostility
grew out OF some local laws or conduct of the
knights which are contrary to the doctrines or
the church. As to the knights Of Labor oreani-
cation In the United States have not thorough
~ examined their constitution or studied their
purposes: yet from reading the newspapers and
Mr.. lPowderly's published statements. infer
that the objects of the Knights are praise
worthy, and In no way opposed TO the
views of the church. The Catholic pre-
iates will, to y man. declare in favor
Of the organization OF labor. There can De no no
wrong in such course. Organization Is the
basis of all progress, political social and relig-
ious. Only when IL 10 abused does the church
raise her voice and call out her children. have
no knowledge OF the workings Of the local So
cieties in Canada. Whether or not secret
pledges are taken by the Knights here Is q oues-
ton on which more light should be thrown by
their leaders Vicar general Conway, of Chi.
cago. who examined the constitution carefully,
assures me that il bears no resemblance to that
Of the Freemasons or Odd-fellows, and other or
CARNATIONS which the church has always antag-
oni2ed. The distinction must be made too. as
to the nature OF the secret pledges. We hold
that If man joins society, swearing never
to reveal any of its workings, no matter
how criminal, and to obey the dictates
of its officers blindly, he surrenders his
personal liberty, becomes slave to
his fellow-man, and cannot partake of the
sacraments of the church. On the other hand.
II man joins an organization, swearing to
keep secret its workings, with the proviso that
nothing therein shall be contrary to the laws of
the land, to his conscience and religious tenets,
The whole question as to the church's attitude
towards the Knights of Labor depends on which
of these oaths the members take. If the latter
are in accordance with Mr.. Powderly's state
ments, then the church says to the Knights of
Labor, God speed you If however, the abso-
lutte, blind pledge is taken, no matter how laud-
able the objects of the society are, the church
can never countenance it, and will call on her
children to withdraw, under the pain of excom-
munication. So everything depends upon the
provision"
