The Reason Why

ubO bAO00OAA WHY
Ayers Pills are so popular is, that
while always reliable as cathartic
medicine, they never leave. any ill
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from Gallo
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
IDENTIFY administered.
In the Southern and Western States,
where arrangements of the liver are so
general, Ayers Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. ID. w. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:
ssI suffered long time with stomach
and liver troubles. tried various rem
edies, but received no benefit until
commenced taking Ayers Pills. These
pills benefited me at once. / took them
regularly for few months, and my
ahealth was completely restored"
Throughout New England, next to
lang diseases, Stomach and Bowel
Complaints are the most prevalent.

Cremation of Men and Mules in a Wichita

Cremation of Men md Mules in a Wichita
Stable.
WICHITA, Kar., July 12.-Yesterday
morning at $40 o'clock the North Main
street stables of the Wichita Street Rail-
way Company were discovered to be on
fire and were soon in ashes. The night
Waterman was in the barn at the time, and
of the three employees who slept in the
building, Tobias Weile and William Gerke
were both badly burned and removed to the
hospital. and &c rke, It is thought, can not
recover, as his head and shoulders are
horribly burned. As he jumped from an
upper window a passer by who gave the
alarm threw him into the gutter and roll
ing him over extinguished the fire on his
burning clothing. An old employee of the
company who had been engaged for a long
time in greaaing the tracks on the curves
and was known as Greaser Murphy, is said
to have been in the burning building, but
he has not yet been found. He is also re-
ported to have been on a drunk Tuesday
and when in that condition he usually
crawled into the hay loft and it is thought
he perisl ed in the flames. There were
only eigbty-three mules in the barn at the
time, the rest of the company's 300 being
scattered in the other barns. Over forty
of the mules were burned to death and ten
more had to be shot. Almost all of the
thirty that survive are so badly burned as
to be entirely useless.

The Couple Charged With Adultery I'm
der the State Law.
Topeka, Kan, July 12.-Shortly before
noon to-day Constable Davies served a
warrant, issued from Justice Searle's
court, on complaint of County Attorney
Curtis, charging Mrs. John w. Norton
with violation of the laws of Kansas on
two counts. The warrant was made out
for both Moore and Mrs. Norton, but as
Moore was already in custody it was
served on the woman.
The first count specifies that they will
fully lived together as man and wife on
July 8. at the Copeland Hotel. The second
count specifies that they are guilty of
"open and gross lewdness and lascivious
behavior and of open and notorious acts of
public indecency; grossly scandalous in
this, that they registered at the Copeland
Hotel on July as man and wife and occu-
pied the same room, contrary to section u
of the statute in relation to marriage"
which makes it a misdemeanor for a man
and woman not married to live together as
man and wife.
1t fixes the penalty at not less than 500
thirty days nor more than three months
Imprisonment in the county jail or peni-
Tertiary.
If Moore is released the warrant will
then be served upon him. Mrs. Norton
was at once taken into custody in room 81,
just opposite Moore's room, with an officer
guarding each room.
Both Moore and Mrs. Norton were very
much surprised when the warrant was
read 1t is believed that Mrs. Norton will
plead guilty when arraigned in court, and
the minimum fine will be imposed. She
Immediately sent for her attorney, Captain
johnson, and held quite long consulta-
tion with him

The Government Leader Thinks They Be
long Properly to Law Courts.
LONDON, July 10.-In the House of Com
mons yesterday afternoon Sir Wilfrid
Lawson, Home Ruler, asked whether the
Government would grant the appointment
of committee to inquire into the charges
against the leaders of the Nationalist party
in the House of Commons.
Right Hon. w. H. Smith, Government
leader, said that the House was incompe-
tent to inquire into the suit. A proper in
qury could be obtained through proper
tribunals.
Mr.. Parnell later gave notice to the
House that on Thursday he would submit a
motion for the appointment of a commits
sion to inquire into the authenticity of
the letters published by the Times in its
articles on "Pernellism and Crime" in
which he and other Nationalist members
were charged with serious crimes. He
Will also ask the Government to ap-
point a day to discuss the subject and
give him an opportunity to repel the foul
and unfounded charges made against him
by Attorney General Webster in the trial
of the suit of O'Donnell against the Times.
His remarks were greeted with loud cheers
from the Irish benches.
Mr.. w. H. Smith, leader of the Govern
ment party, stated that the Government
would decline to give day for the discus
sion of Mr.. Parnefi's motion to appoint a
committee of inquiry into the charges
made by the Times against the leader Of
the Nationalist party and the authenticity
of the latter supporting such charges. The
Parnellites, therefore, intend to raise a de-
bate on a motion to adjourn, while Hon.
Philip Stanhope will move in the supply
bal for the reduction of Sir r. E.Webster's
salary as Attorney-G General.

The Prohibitionist Leader Talks on Poll

DETROIT, Mich, July 9.-General Clinton
B. Fiske, Prohibition candidate for Presi-
dent, is in the city for few days on pri-
vate business. He says the outlook for the
Prohibition ticket could not be better. He
is receiving thousands of letters from per-
sons heretofore voting with the old parties
all giving assurance of the writer's sup
port. 1.-The little sickly annex" he said,
(which the Republican party nailed to
their platform has driven thousands of
temperance voters into the Prohibition
ranks"
General Fiske in the course of an inter-
view said he should make no speeches IN
til September.
"Where do you expect to make your
largest gains, General:" was asked.
1--WE will gain largely in New York,
probably increase the vote 80 per cent,
drawing chiefly from the Republicans.
We will gain largely in New Jersey, Vir-
ginia, West Virginia, North Carolina,
Tennessee and Missouri, also in the New
England States. Our gain in the North
will come largely from the Republican
party and in the South from the Demo-
cratic party. Our strength in the South
comes from both white and black"

CHICAGO, July 10.-Anarchists and So
cialists Sunday schools which have been
recently organized in Chicago under the
superintendency of Paul Grottkau, are
making great progress. There are six of
them and they hold their meetings every
Sunday morning. Among the teachers are
Christianson, editor-in- chief of the Ar6eiter
ZeituRq, Paul Grottkau and Mrs. Lucy
Parsons. Strangers can not gain admit
lance to the schools. The schools have not
been organized more than month, but the
attendance is already large and constantly
increasing. 1t is estimated by Grottkau
and others interested that 5000 people
will soon be enrolled in these schools, in
Guiding children. OF these now attending
many are children not more than ten years
of age.

plunged wildly around in a frightfully
dangerous manner on a crowded street
the other day. She was evidently
looking for some one, for she breath

Charles had been carried forward by
the crowd, and when he stopped a
lamp post had hidden him from view.
When the big woman saw him she
plunged forward, fell heavily on his
thin teen-inch chest, crushing him
against the lamp post and sobbed out:

An Alleged Wrong That Needs Right
ing.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 1.-Three
months ago two Polanders, man and wife,
landed ct Castle Garden. They were there
accosted by man who offered them en-
ployment in the country, they to receive
respectively so and s. permanently for
their services. Each was required to sign
contract, the nature of which they did
not comprehend but which covered a period
of three months at the terms stated and
provided that the money at the end Of
the term should be paid, minus dednc-
lions for necessaries purchased"
and with a clause providing for for
fixture Of wages upon non-fulfllmeot Of
contract. The Polanders affirm that their
employer was an agent of Charles Persons,
of North Hampton. They were shipped to
a Franklin County farmer who paid them
only 50 for their united services and dis
charged them without stated reason after
they had served the time of contract.
Travelling on foot and begging food by the
way, they walked to Springfield where,
having lodged in a police station Monday
night, they told The story given.
Parsons, whose agent is believed towork
about Castle Garden among the immi-
grants, Is believed to receive from en-
ploying farmers $40 per head for immi-
grants, the farmer getting it back out Of
their dues. The farmer gets his help with
out cost and the agent by the alleged sys-
TEN is enriched He has been several years
engaged in this traffic, and is believed to
have realized from it 500 per month. He
issues a circular TO farmers, in.which he
saws immigrant help is ignorant Of
our language or ways, and thus,
he intimates, more docile under ex-
tortion and beggarly wages. Not less
than 1000 poverty stricken immi-
grants have thus been bound out in New
England States alone, through his agency.
Men are promised 500 and women $50 an
nually. Parents have in several known
cases been separated from their children.
Young girls have complained against out
rageous conduct by employers, though
they can produce no witnesses. Under the
Parsons system there is a recorded case
of a man who worked five years without a
penny of wages. He had been told the
State law imposed severest penalty upon
him who so much as mentioned the subject
of wages to an employer. Hence he did
not COMPLAIN.

Tie Fiery Frenchman Makes a Bad Break
and Resigns.
PARIS, July 13.-In the Chamber Of
Deputies yesterday General Boulanger
proposed the dissolution of the Chamber.
His proposition was rejected and he there
upon resigned his seat. In his speech pro-
posing the dissolution he said that such a
course was imperative and that elections
ought to be held before the celebration OF
the centenary of the revolution Of 1isS.
The country demanded the institution of
new safeguards to secure the Republic
from the attacks of its adversaries, against
which it was powerless. The Chamber ct
Deputies was falling into ruin and de-
cay and the country was trem-
bling with emotion at always having
presented to it as on enemy citizen who
only desired the welfare of the Republic.
The monarchists were watching the Re-
public, expectant of its death agony. The
country felt that its safety demanded re-
vision of the constitution. He did not
doubt that the patriotism of the deputies
was on a level with their sense of duty.
He would do his duty by demanding the
passage of the resolution that the Cham
Der, being convinced of the necessity for
fresh elections, should ask President Car
not for dissolution.

Il can~not truthfuIly be denied that the
Burlington Route, c., b. & Q. R K, il do
ing an extensive business, both passenger
and freight. OF the first named branch Of
its service the Chicago Herald recently said,
in speaking of the occasion Of the National
Republican Convention: 1.-THE Burlington
Read probably brought in more people than
any other Altogether It is estimated that
from June 16 to 10, the period of the excur-
sion rates, over 1900 strangers came to
Chicago over the Burlington" This was
exclusive Of suburban passengers and
mostly in addition to its heavy regular pass
enger traffic. In receipts Of live stock, the
Union Stock Yards Reports show the Bur-
lington to be far in the lead. The average
number Of cars brought in by it during the
first six months of the years 1885, 1857 and
1888 is %, 40; and the humber foS the first
half Of the year 1888, notwithstanding the
temporary depression caused by the recent
great strike on its lines, was 24,425, or but
little below the average. The latter figure
also represents about "a per cent of the
total number Of cars, 10e, as, brought to the
Yards for the last half year, being more
than six per cent. in excess Of the receipts
by any other road.
