He said that on-the last trip they made it was observed that the life saving appliances on the steamer were somewhat deficient, and in order to overcome this difficulty and thereby abate the fears of the tImld, and at the same time show their appreciation of the many kind favors receiv- ed from him, the members of the Board and other friends had procured metallic life boat, and in their behalf, said Mr. Reynolds, I now present you with a receipted bill for the same.
 MI. Reynolds then passed the receipt to Mr. Brown, who was so completely surprised that for a moment he could not speak.

It is pleasure to me to con- tribute to the happiness of nay frieuds in this manner and shall be pleased to repeat the excursion at any time when my business arrangements will permit. I thank you most sincerely, gentlemen, for this expres- sion of your kindness toward me and rest assured that shall ever appreciate it."

TAXATION OF BANK SHARES. A Suit Which Affects Every State In

SYRACUSE, July 27.-In the United States circuit court to-day Judge Wallace heard ar- gument on a motion for preliminary injunc- tions made by thirty five national banks of New York city to restrain the collection of the taxes upon bank shares for the year 1885 pending the issue of suits for permanent in functions. The suits involve the constitu- tionality of the entire State taxation system. The main point is that the State law violates the provisions of section 5,219 of the revised statutes of the United States, which forbids the taxation of shares of national banks by the several States at a greater rate than other monied capital. If the point is sustained it will affect the taxation of shares of national banks in nearly every State of the Union and in many States the taxation of State banks well. Decision was reserved.

 LONDON, July 27.-Lord Salisbury was en- Enthusiastically cheered by the crowd that had assembled in and around the Carlton club when his carriage drove up to the entrance and the cheering was taken up and renewed.
  When quiet was restored Lord Salisbury ad- dressed the assembled members of the Con- servative party upon their duties. His speech occupied twenty minutes. He congratulated those present on the result of the elections and explained the necessity and wisdom of ac- quiescing in the Irish policy of the Unionists. He announced that he had offered to Lord Harrington the premiership, the Queen ap- proving, but Harrington refused notwith- standing the fact that the latter's colleagues had offered to extend to him their loyal sup port should he accept. Parliament he con- tinued would meet in continuous sitting in August until the estimates were passed. Lord Salisbury admonished his hearers to preserve the utmost secrecy as to their intentions. MT. Arthur L. Tallenham, Conservative M. P. for Winchester, subsequently asked Lord Salisbury what protection would be afforded the Loyalists of Ireland where he said under the existing state of affairs their lives were becoming burden. Lord Salisbury replied that the existing laws for the government of that country would be vigorously enforced. He would apply for additional powers if necessary, but thought it unwise to discuss these mrtters before the estimates were fin ished

Woman's Industrial League.

A large and enthusiastic meeting of the
Woman's National Industrial League was
held last night at the League rooms, No.
1112 T street northwest. The holding of a
fair was fixed for Monday next at the said
rooms, and committees were appointed to
visit the clergy, business men and all wins
are supposed to be willing to aid the League
in giving temporary home to women out
of employment, the free reading-room, and
those in destitution caused by recent dis.
charges from Government employ. The
League has never before called on organized
labor, the business community or society to
help them in the good work. The Woman's
League has done much for their wage
sisters, and merits the confidence ard gen
erous aid Of our citizens. A resolution
thanking Secretary Whitney for the sum of
$780, contributed by him to the free reading
rooms for women, was adopted. Let every
one visit the fair and contribute something
to make II success.

n Foolish and stubborn Belief

in the efficacy of certain remedies Of violent
action is the besettlng foible OF the ig-
norant and prejudiced. The indiscriminate
use OF purgatives is a very common phase
of the fntuity of such people. Aloes,
podophylline, disguised In sugar coating,
castor oil, mercury and other old-fashioned
drugs still hold their own among this class,
and although the success OF Hostetter
Stomach Bitters sufficiently disproves the
necessity for violence IN medication, the
adherents of an exploded fallacy still per-
sist in giving and taking inordinate purga-
tive doses. Dyspepsia, constipation, liver
complaint are as certainly and thoroughly
subdued by the Bitters as they are invariably
aggravated by an indiscriminate use Of
medicines, ofllcinal or proprietary, belong
ing to the class which we have condemned.
