Consumption
Conquered !!
WHEN THE DOCTORS COULD
DO NO MORE.
CHAS. A. CABRERA, so Hawley Street,
Boston, Mass, writes:

Boston, Mass, writes:
some year ago was apparently SO far
gone with Consumption that my life
seemed only a question of days rather
than months. With my faith in the
ability of physicians to help me all gone,
il tried almost every known remedy,
with no apparent benefit. Finally, as
last resort was induced to try DR.. II. C..
Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first
dose gave me relief, and with the first
bottle took a new lease Of life, and i
can honestly say to-day that one spoon
full of this remedy is worth more to the
sufferer from Lung troubles than gall
Ion of any other known remedy. A bot
tie Of it is now one Of my choicest pos
sessions, and at the first symptom Of n
cough or cold fly to it for the relief it
never fails to give"
DIR. FLOWERS LUNG COR
DIAL is without question the
most wonderful Lung remedy ever
discovered. 1t eradicates the
germ of CONSUMPTION AS NO
REMEDY HAS EVER BEEN
KNOWN TO DO. 1t stands with
out a rival for COUGHS, COLDS,
BRONCHITIS, ASTHMA, and
CONSUMPTION.

The little play given by the Sisters Dora at
Rossini Hall last evening was bright and spark
ling and the various characters were exceedingly
well taken. The second play given by the gentle
men, in which the female characters were as
sumed by males, made decided hit, and the
feminine roles were great success. The musical
portion of the entertainment equalled the others
In interest and the brilliant audience present was

"monopolizing private gutters.' Shylock, who

Macbeth to "rummage among his ribs" which he
does so successfully that Bassanio only appears

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal.
It is certainly unfortunate that the excessively
high price of Blaine's History ($7. SOY puts it out
Of the reach Of the class of people that would
read it the most eagerly. Blaine is evidently
following the English book-making fashion, q
high priced and very profitable edition for the
rich. to be followed by a cheap edition for the
million. Both volumes ought to be furnished. as
they easily could be, in a single compact volume
for one dollar. No doubt this will be done, but
until done thousands of people will miss q most
graphic picture Of one period in our national
history Of far more consequence than any decade
since the discovery Of the new world. The
American people cannot read this volume
too much nor can our youth too often be brought
to study the marvellous changes wrought in our
government and people from 1860 to 1880. The
story is old, but, like a broader ''old. old story
In 1851 the American government was a COM
plete failure. In 1880 1t was on the highway to
a more complete success than any nation has
ever yet attained. And the reason why these
volumes should find q place at every freside is
the statesman-like manner in which Mr.. Blaine
has treated all questions, parties and persons.
The author does more than justice to Buchanan,
sides with Mcclellan and does not hesitate to
condemn the impeachment of johnson and re-
joice at its failure, although he regards him as
the worst President that ever occupied the
White House. johnson was in ono sense the
evil genius of the South. In another and better
sense the American people owe to his obstinacy
the most splendid fruit OF the great recon
s~truction era, the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments. Blaine showg that negro suffrage
would never have been accomplished but for
that strange perversity in the South that led to
Ku-kluxism and In the North to the Democratic
party becoming its apologist. It is evident that

The Troubles at WISCONSIN university.

MADISON, Wis, March 25-The trouble be-
tween the regents and the students in the State
University has, it is thought, been settled by
the adoption by the regents of a resolution ad-
dressed to the twenty-five higher class men,
who declined to vacate the gymnasium when
ordered to do so by Colonel Lomia, professor Of
military science and tactics. In the resolutions
the regents say that as the rebellious students
had evidently labored under a misrepresentation
in regard to Colonel Lomia's authority to issue
an order, no suspensions would be made. The
resolution also embodied a clause to the effect
that the students had made. a verbal apology to
the board for their rebellious conduct. The
students deny THE, and are now seriously think
ing OF holding a meeting to consider the advisa-
bllity of submitting to the resolutions.
