As I said, no n knew my BUSH
ness, and not a single man except
those in the stable saw Knott work
before the race. except on one or
two occasions. He has got a most
peculiar gait, and when he is loafing
along you would think he was doing
his level best. The two occasions in
which he worked openly he was
simply playing, and all the smart
fellows thought he vas breaking his
neck. They had about 80 "touts :"
at the track watching him, aud every
one of them telegraphed back that
he was not ;worth three dollars.
When he won the Junior Champion
everybody who knew anything
thought he had q cineh on the
Futurity, and Mclaughlin, Murphy,
Garrison and the rest, who had oil
refused to ride him before, wanted
to ride without pay. I knew it was
the world against Bryant, and I had
to watch my points. There never
was a treasury vault guarded like
that colt was. Every night, two
men slept in the stall with him and

other a hatchet. 1 gave them in

ne Faces HIS Adored Three.

Here is a readable stickful from
the Reading Eagle of Monday:
Colonel Joseph W. Harper, who
died, aged 81 years, at Petersburg,
Va, from injuries he sustained by a
fall from an old-fashioned high
post bedstead, was q nephew OF
General Winfield Scott. Over 10
years ago, Colonel Harper cut down
fine walnut tree on his farm and had it
sawed into planks, from the finest of
which he had a coffin made for him
self. He was just 6 feet z inches,
and the coffin was made 7 feet long.
Years ago he designated the colored
man who should dig his grave and
the manner in which it should be
done. He had been married four
times, his last wife, who is quite
young, and an infant less than q year
old, survive him. His three wives
were buried side by side. and his
grave was dug at their heads. at
right angles, with his head to the
south. Thus he was equally near to
them all, and his body vas inclined
to the right side, &c that he would
face them.

March April May

Are the months in which to purify the blood,
for at no other season is the body so suscep-
tible to benefit from medicine. The peculiar
purifying and reviving qualities OF Hoods
Sarsaparilla are just what are needed to eX-
pei disease and fortify the system against the
debilitating effects of mild weather. Every
year increases the popularity of Hoods Sar-
saparilla, for it is just what people need at
this season. It is the ideal spring medicine.
If you have never tried it, do so, and you
will be convinced of its peculiar merit.
81 take Hoods Sarsaparilla every year as
a spring tonic, with most satisfactory re-
suits. 1 recommend Hoods Sarsaparilla to
all who have that miserable tired feeling at
this season." c. PARMELEE, $40 Bridge

Purify Your Blood

We believe Hoods Sarsaparilla is the very
best medicine to take to keep the blood pure
and to expel the germs of scrofula, salt
rheum, and other poisOnS which cause so
much suffering, and sooner or later under
mine the general health. By its peculiar
curative power, Hoods Sarsaparilla strength
ems and builds up the system while it eradi-

My daughter has been very i'll with ecze-
ma. By reading about Hoods SarSaparilla
was induced to try this medicine, and was
wonderfully surprised by its effects. When
she had taken half bottle she was like

gone, she was entirely cured and in perfect

Mr.. Cleaves's candidacy is receiving many
favorable notices from State newspapers

The progress Of railroad consolidation
seems destined to go on in New England in
spite Of temporary obstruction from LegiSla-
lures and Governors. The proposition to
consolidate the Old Colony and Boston ~
Providence railroads is now before the Mos
sachusetts Legislature. The plan is to bring
about the consolidation by means of lease
of the Boston & Providence to the Old Col
ony for ninty-nine years with guarantee
of ten per cent interest to the stockholders
of the Boston & Providence. Some of the
Boston business men object to such con-
solidati"n on the ground that the 6xing Of
such high rate Of guaranteed interest for
so long period is the saddling Of an unwar-
ranted tax upon the people who are tributa-
ny to the roads and must contribute the
freight and passenger charges from which
these high rates of Interest are TO be paid

For several years have suffered untold miser-
les from liver and bladder trouble, and obstinate
constipation. Physicians whom consulted said
was suffering from Inflammation OF the kidneys
ana bladder which had become chronic.
The pain in my back and l0ins was at times I'M
endurable, and followed by my passing gravel in
considerable quantities, after which the pain and
tene erness were so great as to render sleep with
out au opiate impossible. have spent hundreds
of dollars with physicians who have prescribed
all kinds of remedies with only temporary relief.
About year ago Mexican Pulque was brought
to my notice by a circular, and knowing that
down in the Rio Grande in the time OF the war
the regimental surgeons prescribed 1t tor scuryy
and kidney troubles. got dozen bottles, and
commenced using Pulque according to directions.
After using four bottles my bowels, which had al
ways been constipated, become natural and regu-
lar. the pain over the kidneys began to disappear
and could sleep eight or nine hours without
waking. / continued the use Of Pulque until /
had used three dozen bottles. The constipation,
pain in my back and l0ins. and sleeplessness have
all passed away, and for the past nine months
have been well man in that direction. / recon-
mend it to all my friends with the most gratifying
results and will answer any and all questions con-
corning its wonderful benefits to me.

Though it was not made very clear in the
debate in the House on Wednesday under
which one of the powers delegated to it by
the Constitution Congress has the right to
investigate the labor trouble on the Reading
railroad in the State Of Pennsylvania, still
perhaps the action Of the House in appoint
ing a committee of Eve with this end in view
is not TO be regretted. The facts of the cen
trOyersy are what the public want and what
they have been trying to get for many weeks
past with very Indifferent success. The
company tells one story and the strikers
another If this committee does nothing
more than get at the truth and present it in
ineligible torn to the public it will do a
good service. But the matter should be APP
preached in 10 spirit Of demagoguery or
with any design to make political capital.
The facts are what is wanted. If it be
clearly shown that the company are to blame
for the present state Of things we imagine
that ii will not long defy public sentiment,
but will make such concessions as justice
and equity require.
