with Waterbury watches, two dollar
and half gold pieces, or big, fat

BOYS were doomed to disappointment.
Mayor Brown told them that there
had been complaints made about some
of the men patronizing and favoring
saloons; he said that he had had per-
manent citizens on the other hand
compliment them in high terms; what
he urged upon the men was that a
man could be a gentleman in the ca
pacity of policeman, just as much SO
as the man who occupied the highest
place in the land; true gentleman
was gentleman wherever found, and
he hoped they would so conduct them
selves in the future as to earn the title
of gentleman from every one.
Aldermen Brown and Mahoney also
spoke in the same vein.
No heads fell in the basket, no Wa
terbury watches, no fat turkeys were
presented; but the boys have the salts

listened to little scolding and COM
pliment or two, they retain the star.

all the church members we're what
they profess to be, the world would

begin BY paying the preacher silat
they owe him, then let the preacher
be sure to settle with his creditors.
Then let all the old debts OF the

there be church Of honest men and

will most surely follow. A debt.

religion will be In q measure fail

Louisiana State Lottery ticket had
been purchased by Schwartz wife
as birthday present to her husband.
On the 18th inst. the ticket drew a

did not occu. until the 18th inst,
she decided to keep it a secret until
then. Thursday night however,
unable longer to hold her secret, she
told her husband of the luck that
had befallen him. He went to his

The One-ldea Craze.

1t is exceedingly strange how
some papers advocate clccting 10
legislative offices men for the pur-
pose of passing laws in the interest
of one class, when they ought to
know that class legislation is contra
ry not only to all constitutional en-
actments, but to the very spirit ol
our government. 1t is almost an
every day occurrence to hear men
say we must send men to the legis-
lature to look after this, or that pc
culiar interest and even newspapers
claiming to be moulders OF public
opinion will advocate such ideas
The most dangerous legislators that
we have, are these one idea men, We
care not from what class they come
They generally haye some hobby by
which they propose to revolutlonizt
the world. They give no heed tc
anything else and are often inyeigh-
led into supporting the most danger
Gus measures, simply to get theil
own pet scheme through. What We
want in Legislature IS men OF broad
ideas who can look at measure IL
all its bearings and see not only
what effect it will have foror against
this, or that class. but what is th'
greatest good to the greatest mum
ber. A mistaken idea seems TO have
gotten hold Of the country that th'
interest of this. or that class is In
imical to another, when in fact tn
interest of all are inseperable, ant
the sooner we get this idea ground
ed into the people, the better legis
lation we will have. We don't nee,
men to legislate in the interest o
the merchant and against the farmer
or vice versa, In the interest Of rail
roads and against the shipper, or i
turn tear down the railroads, but "

The Incurable Cured-A PLAIN
Statement of Facts.

The Incurable Cured-A Plain
Statement of Facts.
My mother, Mrs. Feathers, has
had q cancer of the womb for many
months. Last winter the doctor told
us it was cancer, and could not be
cured. Five different physicians in
private practice have said the same
thing. We took her to the woman's
hospital of this city, and there they
repeated the same story. DR.. En-
NETT told us it was cancer, and she
must die. We then took her to the
New York College Hospital, and
they told US the same thing there
that she had cancer and could live
but very short time. She was
then carried to my house, where she
awaited patiently the coming OF
death as her only relief. We saw
the advertisement of the Swift
Specific Co., and as drowning man
grasps at straw" we went to the
Office OF the company, and the ply
sician told me to try it-that it
could do her no possible harm, and
that it would cure her. She had
lost great deal of flesh and strength,
and it seemed folly to give he- medi-
cine after what we had been told.
However, we commenced the S. S. s.,
and kept it up month before we
began to see any improvement.
From that time on her general health
improved, and abe was soon raised
from bed. The discharge increased
so much that it frightened US, but
We kept on, and the cancer came
away in great sloughs and Jumps.
For two months now there has been
no hemorrhage, no sign of discharge.
Thank God, my mother is we'll. She
is still ut my house, and will be glad
to speak tor herself at any time.
