 of the affair.

Rioting was renewed at Belfast, Ireland, and the riot act was again read. The mob in. creased in size and began throwing stones at the police. The latter fired, killing four per sons, one of whom was barmaid, who was looking out of tavern window at the fight ing.
 The mob returned the fire, and a brisk fusil. Jade was kept up for twenty minutes. Soldiers paraded the streets to assist the police in case of necessity.
 Orangemen Wednesday night wrecked one hundred houses in the city, two of which they burned, The rioters broke into several whs- key stores and possessed themselves of the contents. Numbers of the men fell into the gutters drunk and laid there Others; made desperate or maudlin by drink, prowled about the streets crying out, "To - with the Pope!'
 the tavern kept by Catholic named Duffy. The police were promptly on the scene, and after stubborn contest, during which they used their carbines, drove the mob away in disorder. When the Orangemen returned to the fight they were accompanied by large number of factory girls, who goaded or shamed the men on to battle, and formed 8 most dan gerous element
 A dangerous internal machine, consisting of . jar filled with black substance and some clockwork, was thrown against the door of a Protes stant's house in Lurgan, county Armagh. When the machine was hurled it had lighted fuse attached, and it exploded in the doorway.
 Later reports say: Scores of the rioters were wounded, and it is known positively that six men and two women were killed. A great many wounded persons were carried away by friends, and whether their injuries are fatal is not yet known. Twenty of the rioters who received bullet wounds are lying in one infrmary. A large number of Orange men who took part in the riots were arrested
 ACCOUNT OF AN EYEWITNESS.
 An eye witness of the riots gives the follow. ing description of the scenes attending the mob's attack on the Bowers Hill police sta tion:-"Women with pokers pried up the pay, ing stones and broke them into suitable sizes for the use of the rioters when they ran short of missiles. Women and young girls desper. ately entreated the men te continue the fight ing whenever they Jagged, offering them apronfuls of fresh stones. and when entreaty failed the women and girls drove the men on by savage threats. The poice station is a moderate size dwelling house. When the mob attacked the building the police respond ed with volley fired from the doorway. But the rioters soon drove the officers in and they retreated up. stairs, and thence maintained the fight on their side by shooting from the win dows of the front bedroom on the second foor They held their position for half al hour, during which the battle was hot and savage on both sides, when they were rein forced by the arrival of seventy fresh officers

The Home Rule Bill.

The English House of Commons amid un precedented excitement, decided against the second reading of the Home Rule bill by vote of 341 to 311. Mir. Gladstone then moved an adjournment until Thursday, and the motion was adopted. It is claimed by friends of the bill that the vote merely makes 8 breathing place in the progress of home rule and that Ireland has nothing to fear from the result.
 The Times leader advi-es the anti-home rule leaders to rememb r, while preparing for the election, that no other campaign issue ougl t to be admitted beyond the unity of the Empire. while the Neacs leader calls home rulers the real ''unionists," because their own aim is to remove the causes which unhappily separate the two countries.
 The scene in the English House during the discussion on the bill is described as one never to be forgotten. The House was crowd ed from floor to ceiling. The Peers Gallery was filled to overfowing. In the serried ranks of spectators stood many foreign am Iassadors. The strangers galleries were full 10 suffocatiOn.

June Crop R eporf.

The crop report of the Department or Agri- culture makes the area of spring wheat near ly the same as last year, about twelve million acres. There is an increase of one-si1th of last years breadth in Dakota, decrease in Nebraska, and small reduction in Minnesota and Wisconsin. The nainor-spring wheat dis tricts show small advance. The extension of area in Dakota is due mainly to the settle ment and the necessity of ready money for im- provements, and somewhat to last years un- satisfactory flax product in southern Dakota. The effect of low prices of wheat has been enumerated by the superior rate of yield of re- cent years.
 The condition of spring wheat averages 9S1s against 97 in June of last year. In detail it is as follows: Wisconsin, 97; Minnesota, 99, Iowa, 100; Nebraska 97; Dakota, 99; Washing lon 100 s.--..-...

Something About Catarrh.


 4 great many people are afflicted with Ca tarrh who do not know what ails them; and a great many more continue sufferers who might be cured.
 Thickening of the membrane which lines the nasal passages, thus making breathing difi- cult; a discharge from the nostrils more or less copous, watery or thick, according to the stage of the disease; 8 sense of fullness in the head; constant inclination to spit; and, in advanced cases, a dropping of intensely dis gusting matter into the throat, are few of the prominent symptoms of Catarrh.
 Deafness, infamed eyes, neuralgia paiRs, sore throat and loss of sense of smell are very often caused by Catarrh.
 All these tr oubles are cured by Piso's Rene. dy for Catarrh, Relief is had immediately after beginning it's use, but it Is important that it be continued without intermission until the catarrhal virus is expelled from the system and healthy secretions replace the diseased action of the mucous membrane. Manifestly it is unreasonable to expect cure in a short time of disease that has been progressing for months years.
 This question of time is provided for in the putting up of Piso's Remedy for Catarrh. It is SO concentrated that a very small dose is directed. The quantity in one package is suf- fcient for long treatment, consequently the expense is mere trifle, and there is no excuse for neglect nor reason for it but forgetfulness. A cold in the head is relieved by applica- cation of Pisos Remedy for Catarrh. The comfort to be got from it in this way is worth many times the cost.
 The following letters are specimens of those received every day, testifying to the worth of Piso's Remedy for Catarrh:
 ALLEGHENY Pa., Sept, %, 1885. Piso's Remedy for Catarrh is doing wonders for me. 1 believe it will cure any case of Ca- tarrh, if used according to directions.
