Salt Rheun1

The agonies of those who suffer from severe
salt rheum are Undesirable. The cleansing,
healing, purifying influences Of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla are unequalled by any other medicine.
81 take pleasure in recommending Hoods
Sarsaparilla, for it has done wonders for me.
1 had salt rheum very severely, affecting me
over nearly my entire body. Only those who
have suffered from this disease IN It's worst
form can imagine the extent of my affection
tried many medicines, but failed to receive
benefit until I took Hoods Sarsaparilla.
Then the disease began to subside, the
Agonizing Itch and Pain
disappeared, and now am entirely free from
the disease. My blood seems to be thor
oughly purified. and my general health is
greatly beneficial LYMAN ALLEN, Sexton
n. E. Church, North Chicago, Ill.
"My son had salt rheum on his hands and
the calves OF his legs, so bad that they would
crack open and bleed. He took Hoods Sar-
s2parilla and is entirely cured" j. B. Stan

Battle Between whites and Negroes In
Mercer County.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, June IA
special from Bramwell, Mercer county, to
the Daily Gazette, says all the miners in
Bluestone district went out on strike
yesterday for two weeks pay, and to add
to the excitement negro was arrested for
disorderly conduct After the arrest it
was rumored that the whites would take
him from the guards and lynch him.
At ten o'clock last night the town was
thrown into violent state Of disturbance
BY about one hundred negro miners march
ing to Bluestone Inn, where the prisoner
was under guard and demanding his re-
lease. The guards did not surrender him
and the mob began firing on the building
with pistols, and general riot ensued.
Several men were shot among the rioters
by members of the band which the whites
had organized. At late hour the mob
had dispersed after several were arrested.
More trouble is expected, but owing to
the inaccessibility Of the place farther par
ticulars cannot be learned.

years the school has been under the control
of Prof. Thos E. Hodges, who graduated
from the State University at Morgatown,
in 1881. Prof. Hodges was principal OF
the Morgantown public schools for five sue.
cessive years succeeding his graduation, and
resigned that position to accept his pres
snt one. He is very much encouraged by
the results of the years work, as the pro-
portion of teachers among the students Is
more than double what it has ever been
before.

ST. LOUIS, June LIN regard to Sena'
tor Thurman and the Vice Presidency, the
Post Dispatch has the following telegram
from Columbus tonight:
The Post Dispatch correspondent called
on ex. Senator Thurman this afternoon and
asked him in relation to the Vice Presi-
dency.
"You newspaper people," said the Sena-
tor, "will never let fellow alone. There
have been four or five newspaper men call
ing on me every day for week"
THE country at large is deeply interested
in the question of your candidancy for the
Vice-Presidency," suggested the correspon-
dert
There must be some mistake about that,
for people cannot be interested in thing
that does not exist. / lam not candidate
for the Vice Presidency or any other office,
consequently there can be no real or actual
interest in my assumed candidacy"
"But your name is now being mentioned
in all parts of the country as the one likely
10 be selected at st. Louis"
"That may be, but no one has been
authorized to use my name in that connec-
nection. want no Office Of any kind,
and, consequently, am not an aspirant for
the Vice Presidency. l look upon this
whole matter as being intended as friend
ly compliment, but l would much rather
my friends would compliment me by not
mentioning my name in that way"
"But they doubtless assume that you are
desirous of seeing President Cleveland re-
lected."
"And there is no ground for either
assumption or supposition on that score. l
am desirous Of seeing Mr.. Cleveland re-
elected. All that can do in his behalf
will be done In my opinion he will be
elected by an increased majority. A man
with the courage, the honesty, the patriot
ism and the craftsmanship of Grover
Cleveland, deserves such an endorsement
at the hands Of the people as his reelection
would imply.
"But in the event of your unanimous
nomination for the Vice-Pfesidency at St.
Louis ?"
"That event will not occur, for have
already told you that i am not candidate
for that or any other official position"
''But suppose you were nominated,
would you decline the nomination ?"
There would be no propriety in declin-
ing substantially any thing before it is ten
dered, and am not 80 presumptious as to
decline in advance nomination that will
undoubtedly be rendered to another, for the
convention will not lack the best of mate
rial from which to select. am private
in the ranks, and the question Of the Vice
Presidential nomination in no way affects
me-"

Republican Liquor Legislation Again Gives
the Democrats Hopes.
LIMA, O., June 1.-The Republicans Of
Ohio are alarmed at the attitude Of the "a.
loon keepers, many of whom, though the
strongest kind of Republicans, swear that
they will never again vote Republican
ticket, because whenever the Republicans
get the Legislature in this State they are
eternally tinkering with the liquor laws;
The present Republican Legislature raised
the "Dow" tax from 500 for those who
sold wine and beer, and $500 for those who
sold all kinds of liquors, to $3.50 for all
saloon keepers. They also passed the
Owen Sunday closing law.
In Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus
there will be political revolution in No,

year Ohio would surely go Democratic, and
it may anyhow.
