THE Louisville Courier-Jo Journal, referring
to the possible political effect Of Treasurer
Tate's dedication, says:
''Mr Tate is only one man. Up to this
time he has been an honored citizen, and the
party has certainly done itself no discredit in
nominating him. But even q Democratic
nomination cannot change the character of a
man, and If he is wicked will be wicked still,
though for ten terms he receives the indorse-
ment of the Democratic party"

hardly satisfy the people. who have been

AN immense meeting of German-Ameri cans
was held in New York few nights ago in honor
of the memory of the dead Emperor William.
Hon. Carl Schurz delivered memorial address
in Germen In the beginning of his address he
referred to the revolution of 1848 in which he
actor. and said: Before you stands one
of those who lost then many friends under the
iron hand of the prince now mourned. and who
himself escaped from that iron haDd with diff
Guilty and trouble" The address was an elo-
quent tribute to republican ideas, and at the
same time just estimate of the dead EN-
perors character and the work he did for Ger
many. Referring to ''the resurrection of Ger
many Mr.. Schurz SAID:
Like an heroic poem appeared this tremen-
dous event which times with establishment
witnessed and upon which uosterity will with
astonishment look back. And this heroic poem
tells of the warrior king he. the snow of old
age upon his head, surrounded by his paadins,
in the midst of his armed people went into the
field and piled victory upon victory; how he then
came home adorned with the i'm perial dignity

full and glorious nation. and how he, like Fred

ing in dim mythical splendor, will live in the
history and legends of the German people,"
1t is astonishing that man who writes such
English as that even in German-for the speech
was made in German-should be a mugwump.

Gotham,s Chinese Restaurant.

Unlike Americans, the Chinese do not
generally pay by the dishes ordered, but
by he tables or spreads, called by the
Chinese "Gzuh." A first class spread
includes about forty courses, and it takes
two days to finish the feast. 1t costs $50.
a second class spread, with twenty
eight courses, costs $40. A third class
spread, with eighteen courses, costs $25.
The cheapest spread contains eight
courses for So. This is the lowest price
for which a man can order a formal din
ner in a first class Chinese restaurant.
But then the spread is made for any
number of people within twelve.
If a man simply wants to eat a short
meal for himself and a friend or two, he
al get ready made dishes of fish, chick
en-, duck, pigs feet, rice, tea, etc.,
cheaper than in any other restaurant, be-
sides many dishes peculiar to Chinatown.
The prices run from five to twenty-five
cents. The foods are all chopped in
small pieces, rendering knives and forks
unnecessary. The Chinese table imple-
ments are chopsticks, of ebony or ivory,
a tiny little tea cup, and a porcelain
spoon.-Wong Chin Foo in The Cosmo-

SINGULAR VERDlCTS.
Ridiculous Results OF the Deliberations
of Some COrOners, Juries.

Ridiculous Results OF the Deliberations
of Some CorOners' Juries.
The duties. of those who serve on
coroners' juries do not ordinarily sug-
gest any thing very funny, and yet
some laughable results come from their
work, particularly if they do not ex-
actly understand what is expected of
them.
An amusing story is told of verdict
brought in by a Western jury impan-
eled to inquire into the cause of the
death of man supposed to have COM
mitted suicide. The verdict was brief
and to the point, the foreman saying
simply:
I'VE, the jury, find the deceased
guilty as charged"
Another jury examined great many
witnesses in the case of "a man run
over by railroad engine. The ver-
dict was:
1--WE find him to have come TO his
death by being cut in two by a railroad
engine, whereby he could not breathe,
hence he choked to death"
A coroner's jury in the backwoods OF
Missouri heard all the evidence in the
case of man killed by a runaway
team, and brought in the following
verdict:
''The jury finds the dead deceased to
have come to his death at the hands OF
"a runaway team, the horses thereof be.
ing blameless, they being frightened
by dog"
1t is told of an old German that he
sat stolidly and stupidity on coroner's
jury and listened to all the evidence
after which he walked over toward the
corpse with some degree of curiosity
Lifting the cloth he started back
turned to the other jurymen in amaze
ment and alright, and cried out:
mine Colt, shentlemen, dot man ISL
dead"
A jury in a Missouri rural com
munity deliberated three hours ovel
the corpse of woman burned by the
explosion of kerosene lamp, The
following verdict was then announced
in writing:
"ReSolrcd, that the diseased was
burnt to deth. The joory."
A man, supposed to be tramp, was
found dead in the woSds, out West.

Living on the Reputation of Others

"Take everything that / have but

So say all manufacturers of genuine
articles to that horde of imitators
which thrives upon the reputation of
others. The good name of ALLCoCK's
Porous PLAsTERs has induced many
adventures to put in the market
limitations that are not only lacking
in the best elements of the genuine
article, but are often harmful in their

THE SAVAGE WAY.
How the Indian Treats an Injury
Old Time Methods.

Old Time Methods.
The savage is emphatically the
child of nature. He lives close to
nature, his only education is gained
in natures school.
When the Indian receives an
injury, he does not seek cure in
mineral poisons, but binds on the
simple leaf, administers the herbal
tea, and, with natures aid, comes
natural recovery.
Our rugged ancestors, who pierced
the wilderness, built their uncouth
but comfortable Log Cabins and
started the clearings in the woods,
which in time became the broad,
fertile fields Of the modern farmer,
found in roots and herbs that lay
close at hand natures potent remedies
for all their common ailments. 1t
was only in very serious cases they
sent for old "saddle-bags" with his
physic, which quite as often killed as
cured.
Latter day society has wandered
too far away from nature, in every
way, for its own good. Our grand
fathers and grandmotbers lived
wholeso mer, purer, better, healthier,
more natural lives that we do.
Their minds were not filled with
noxious isms, nor their bodies
saturated with poisonous drugs.
Is 1t not time to make change, to
return to the simple vegetable pre-
parations of our grandmothers, which
contained the power and potency OF
nature as remedial agents, and in all
the ordinary ailments were efficacious,
at least harmless?
The proprietors of Warmers Log
Cabin remedies have thought so, and
haveput on the market number OF
these pure vegetable preparations
made from formulas secured after
patient searching into the annals Of
the past, so that those who want
them need not be without them.
Among these Log Cabin remedies
will be found LOG Cabin sarsapa
rilla," for the blood; clog Cabir
hops and buchu remedy" tonic anC
stomach remedy; "Log Cabir
cough and consumption remedy
"Log Cabin hair tonic," for strength
ening and renewing the hair; "LoG

internal application; "Log Cabir

an old but effective remedy fol
catarrh, and "Log Cabin plasters.'
All these remedies are carefully pre-
pared from recipes which were found
after long investigation, to have beer

ANTI.sALOON REPUBLICANS.
A Large and Enthusiastic Convention
 in New York City.

NEW YORK, May 2.-The anti saloon Re-
 publican convention was called to order at
 Il o'clock this morning in Cooper Union.
 Albert Griffin. of Kansas, occupied the chair
 In his opening speech MT. Griffin said that
 the aim of the convention was the organiza-
 tion of political force able to cope with and
 destroy the power of the saloon. The force
 70 win a victory over the saloon he declared
 was the Republican party, seventy five per
 cent. of which was opposed to rum. The
 speaker favored moderation in dealing with
 the liquor question, that sympathizers might
 not be driven away. He urged the anti
 saloon Republicans to move in such a man.
 ner that those who were now in accord
 with them might not be alienated. After
 speaking of the record of the Republican
 party and it's achievements during the war,
 MT. Griffin read letters from Senators Haw-
 ley, Sherman and many others favoring the movement. MT. Griffin was sure that the
 national Republican convention would take firm stand on the question of prohibition. The Hon. Stewart L. Woodford, of Brooklyn, was the next speaker. He said that it was
 left to the Republican party to settle the liouor question, as the Democrats would not and the ProhibitiOnists could not. Gen.
 A. B. Rhetteleton, of Minnesota, urged the necessity of immediate action by the Repub- lican party. The Rev. H. S. DeForest, of Alabama, moved that delegates from each State designate 8 member for each of the committees on permanent organization, reso- lutions, order of business and vice presi dents Carried. A recess then followed.
 The large hall was pretty well filled with 8 very enthusiastic audience. Every State in the Union was represented.
 In the afternoon session 8 list of vice pres- idents was reported from the committee and adopted, including ex-Judge Noah Davis, ex- Governor Bourne of Rhode Island, w. H. Plunkett of Massachusetts, c. P. Hogan of Vermont, and ex- Governor Perham of Maine. A national committee was similarly chosen, including c. s. Page of Vermont and Gem eral Nettleton of Minnesota. Committees on resolutions, permanent organization, etc., were chosen. General Morgan, of Rhode Island, temporary chairman, called the ses- sion to order On motion of MT. Millen tele- grams were sent to the Republican clubs convention in session at Indianapolis and the Republican State convention at Springfield, Ills, and Des Moines, Ia., conveying greet ings and a declaration that the saloons must go out of the party. The committee on per- manent organization reported ex-Governor Perham for chairman and list of secretaries. After number of speeches the convention adjourned till tomorrow.
