Guarding Against Treason in Canada.

OTTAWA, Ont, Oct 3-For some time past
the Dominion government have been watching
with considerable suspicion several members Of
the civil service who are in sympathy with the
home-rule party in Ireland, and who, it was
feared, were endeavoring to SOW seeds of sedition
among other government officials. In view of
this an order was issued yesterday compelling
every member of the sivil service to take an oath
of allegiance the Queen, failing in which their
pay would be stopped. 1t is quite evident that
fears of the government have been aroused, AS, in
connection with this movement, it has now been
proved beyond doubt that the recent robbery of
the minutes of meetings of St. Patrick's Society,"
which are now missing, were committed by
government official who joined the society for no
other purpose than TO secure these books, which
the government believe will disclose certain facts
bearing upon the report of several prominent
members of the civil service having spoken dis
Loyalty of the Queen and country, and having
identified themselves with the Nationalist party
1t has been an open secret for some time that
there are several members of the civil service
who are in sympathy, if they do not belong to
the Fenian Brotherhood, and they are being
sharply watched by outside detectives.

More Dismissals by Printer Benedict, in
Which Indisnians Are Included.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON Oct. 3.--Indiana men received
visitation in the additional dismissal of l25 en-
ployes at the Government Printing Office last
night Judge Gregg who was prominent oiti-
zen of Hancock county for many years, was
among the dismissed, also, Mr.. Fleming, of Terro
Haute, and Mr.. Frizzel of the northern part of
the State. Fleming was an appontee of Senator
Voorhees,, and only few days ago received
letter from the Senator assuring him that he
would be retained. Public Printer Benedict it
is said, coolly informed lady who was appointed
upon recommendation of Mr.. VOORHEES, by Mr.
Rounds, that Senator Voorhees's influence would
not keep her in her place. Mr.. Frizzen expected
to be made foreman of public printing had John
B. Stohl, of South Bend, been appointed Public
Printer, but under Benedict he had not sufficient
influence at his command to secure his old place.
There are several Indiana Republicans left in
the Office; also. number from Ohio and Illinois,
but they all expect to receive their dismissal
papers soon. These discharges, it is now quite
clear are being made for political purposes.

LESSON FOR DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS,

Federal Patronage Source of Weakness and
Not of Strength.
Washington Star.
It is somewhat interesting feature of the
pending congressional struggles that the leading
Democrats have generally made enemies by the
distribution of federal patronage. In years past
1t was the common opinion among Democrats
that if they had control of federal power they
could, with comparative ease retain their power
in districts.
The whole fight against Mr. Randall was be-
cause of the manner in which he had distrib-
uted the federal Offices in Pennsylvania His
commanding position in Congress finally i'm
PEELED his opponents to yield to his renomina-
ton.
In Indiana Mr. Holman. who had been the
unanimous choice of the Democrats of his dis
trict in past years, was confronted with de-
termined opposition made up of men who had
been disappointed in getting national Offices.
In Ohio General LIE Fevre concluded early in
the canvass to abandon the contest because old
friends had become enemies through their disap-
pointment in obtaining federal positions.
Even Speaker Carlisle, with all his popularity
made enemies on account of his selection of a
postmaster.
Representative Willis, of Louisville, has caused
violent opposition to his return to Congress by
his support of lady for postmaster of that city.
Representative Barksdale, of Mississippi, was
defeated for denomination simply and solely be-
cause of his distribution of federal patronage in
his district.
1t is notorious fact that General Bragg, of
Wisconsin, so handicapped himself by disposing
OF federal Offices that he could not even ask re-
| nomination.; and Representative Morrison, of
| Illinois, finds his greatest danger in the use he
| has made of government patronage.
The list might be prolonged to considerable

Cattlemen Financlallx Embarrassed.

ST. LoUIs, Oct. "a special from Austin,
Tex. says: There is no doubt that the shrink
age in cattle values, together with reports of
serious epidemics throughout the country. is
causing great mistrust and uneasness among
the cattlemen of this State. There are rumors
abroad that some of the most prominent cattle
men of this section have already become embar-
rassed and that their paper has gone TO protest,
but no one will confess to having any knowledge
of such a thing. 1t is even limited that private
residences have been sold to insure creditors
against loss. No individual cases of embarrass-
ment have as yet come to light, but extensive
failures are looked for"

centers in the actual state of affairs in Ireland.
The government claims to have learned of new
tactics adopted by the League. Instead of con-
veyng behests to branches of the League through
out the country by means of circulars as hereto
fore, the orders are conveyed verbally through
system of trustworthy secret agents. The in
structons now being given, it is alleged, are that
rents must be paid only in cases where the land
lords offer reduction.
1t is stated that instructions have recently
been received by the police to collect full details
as to the personnel of the League branches This
has caused the officers of the organization
much ALARM and has led to the re-
moval of books and important documents
from central offices to places of greater
safety, in anticipation of police raids. The
official explanation of the sudden activity of the
police in Limerick is that it is nothing more than
revival of quarterly visits for the purpose of
reporting the names of the League officers. This
rule was in force at the time of the old Land
League, and was not formally revoked when that
body was suppressed, so that it may be consd

fallen into disuse.

Painting and EpIIeptIc Fits.

81 wish you would do something"
said a physician to me to-day, "to
teach people the difference between
a fsinting fit and an epiIeptic fit
You see, fainting fit is produced
by the blood leaving the head, aud
these other fits are just the reverse,
and come from the blood rushing
70 the head. 1t is important to re-
member this, because it determines
the method of treating these afllict-
ed people when no doctor is near,
and because every one occasionally
finds 1t his duty to go to the help
of some person in fit, without a
moment for reflection, let alone in
ouiry. Ifs person faints, he ought
to be laid down fiat on his back,
for this will facilitate the return OF
the blood to his head. Indeed, ma
ture has provided for this, for q
person who faints will fall down and
soon recover, il no one interferes.-
On the other hand, person with an
epileptic or cataleptic fit, Indicated
by convulsions and frothing at the
mouth, ought to be prOpped up, so
IA 70 facilitate the flow Of blood from
the head 10 the lower parts OF the
body. by which may be still further
promoted by slapping in the palms
of his hands. Now | cannot ac.
count for it, but the fact 10 that all
ignorant people, IN an emergency,
reyerse this treatment. A person
who simply faints is carefully sup
noyted in a chair, and the face IS
pIied with cold applications, and
famed, the result being that tAe
fainting is greatly prolonged; on
the other hand, man who drops
in the street with epilepsy or cate
lepsy is invariably laid fiat on lis
back, which in some cases is enough
TO kill him.
