in inaccessible canyons or on dry,

springs. But with a little taste and
a trivial outlay they could bc made

This analysis was made 10y DR. II.
IL. Bill, of Vancouver w. r. we be-

"rhese waters, from the large guam
tity of chloride of calcium contained,
are of great service i'm scrohllous dis
eases, such rs ulcers, tumors, the
wasting of children, etc, etc, they
act internally on the skin, bowels
and kidneys, and they are confident
ly recommended in all chronic dis
eases in which saline waters are cf-
fective."
Our informant adds; "l can say
you cannot praise them too highly.
Several prominent citizens use
these waters as II beverage, which is
the casc. 1t IL the lamp still under

feeble men and women who could ~

enmnerate many remarkable cures.
Strange to say, there Is II spring in
Douglas county containing the same
properties only double in quantity.
This spring u few years ago created
quite Il sensation, But too strong
for beverage drink. Hence the use
Of the waters did not follow az

The Federation Scheme Meets with Little
Encouragement.
PITTsBuRG, Dec. "a special to the
Times from Columbus, o., says the
knights Of Labor miners assembled in
convention Mt s a. nj. There were forty
delegates present, the majority of whom
are in favor of remaining in the Knights
OF Labor. Those who are in favor Of one
organization all hail from districts gov
erned by the Columbus scale. After
routine business, Master Workman
Lewis at a p. m, rose to support a reso-
luton that the miners welfare demands
that they have only one organization.
Lewis made g fierce onslaught upon the
Knights of Labor general board, not
sparing Mr.. Powderly, who listened and
took no notice. Lewis then attacked
secretary Watchorn, branding him as a
liar. Mr.. Lewis remarks were to the
effect that at present the order 90 M
prised only 10000 names, against 80, 600
OIL January |, 1883; that the district was
threatened with bankruptcy, and made
a strong plea for single organization.
Robert Watchorn made q spirited re-
ply. He attributed the present bad
state of affairs to wilful waste of money.
determinations and charges were
passed between Lewis, Watchorn, Au-
ditor Maiz, ex-Secretary James, and
John Costello, ending in the appoint
ment OF an investigation committee of
three.
The convention then adjourned to 8
n. m. The members Of the Federation
were all here ready for the joint meet
ing, but it is doubtful If the knights
will be in a position to meet them.

The Misslssippi River Commission.

New ORLEANS, Dec. 5.--The Missis-
sippi river commission arrived here from
V~icksburg. They have examined the
sill dam at the head of the Atchaialaya,
which is intended to prevent the diver
sion of the Mississippi into the river.
The dam is nearly completed. The com
mission has adopted Engineer Wing
mans project for a low water dam near
~Turnbull's island to divert the Red river
into the canal basin and guard the upper
river.
The commissioners say all the work Is
In satisfactory condition. Work to pre-
vent the cavtng in of the bank within
the New Orleans harbor is being de-
vised. A jetty is to be built from Turn
bull island to the Mississippi, SO that the
Red river will have no access to the
archipelago save by the basin around the
end of the jetty, into the Mississippi and
back down the old river on the lower
side of the lefty.

the club $500 and expelled G. B. Davis,
secretary OF the association. The pro-
test of Curry OF st. Charles, Mo-, against
Thos. Knox of st. Louis, claiming that
Knox controlled two horses at a late
race; was overruled, as they decided that
Curry did hot prove the case. The case
against Frank Van Ness and Sire Bros,

The Direct Tax Eli.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Git is very gen

ton in tho house on Thursday. From
expressions of opinion among the mem
bers of congress who wero In the opposi-
ton last session, 1t Is not thought that
they can now successfully resist its pas
snge. The general opinion Is, however,
that II the bill is passed 1t will be vetoed

standing ut the last session, and it was
to relieve the president of the embarrass-
ing effect Of a veto message in the teeth
OF the presidential campaign that the OPP

A CHAT WITH ONE OF THE GOV.

SCORED A GREAT VICTORY.
The. Recent Supreme Court Decision the

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Mr- Jefferson
Chandler of st. Louis, one of the govern
ment's counsel In the Bell telephone case,
valid that NO copy of the recent decision
II the supreme court of the United States
had yet been given out, and as he had
not heard 1t read he did not know its
terms, "but know enough about it to
satisfy me that the decision was a great
victory for the government, and a great
defeat for the Bell company. AS soon as
we get an official copy of the opinion we
will begin to prepare for the trial in the
United States court in Boston, to which
the case is remanded. We will have the
right to prepare IN amended bill. Then
the Bell people will have SO much time
In which to prepare an answer. Then
we will begin to take testimony. 1 don't
think we can get ready for the trial

next attorney general will dismiss the
case altogether. OF this, however, /
am certain-that II the government Is
in earnest, and prosecutes the case In
earnest, 1t will be successful in breaking
down the Bell telephone monopoly.
There is one point right here that l wish
to emphasize-that this is not a fight
between nj telephone company and
another, or between one monopoly and
another, but al effort made by the gov
eminent to give other telephone com.
panies the opportunity that rightfully
belongs to them and to open up tele-
phones to the whole world.n

prolific of many evils. Once fairly
prosperous it had, within recent years,
suffered %priyation and want. The mum
merry and superstitions of the Roman
Catholic church, which the thinking Bo-
hemian mind rejected, was responsible
for the rank intidelity of many of these
people. Here the speaker launched into
O bitter arraignm mt of the church of
Rome, under which the patience of the
audience became exhausted and the
speaker was told that his time was up.
He kept on speaking, however, and it
was not until he had been reminded
three times, each time with greater en-
phasis, that other speakers were waiting,
chat he could be torn from his subject
Mr.. Dodge then made an apology,
saying it was for the Professionals to prove
that it was the better by showing itself
possessed Of the larger Christian char
ity, and 1t was not on the programme to

Rev. H. o. Monro (colored), spoke

inforced the three Protestant places of
worship in striving with the tough col
ored element. About 2, 900 of the 30, 600
negroes In the city attended church, he
said, and their nine churches were we'll
filled every Sabbath night. But the
Sunday school work was behind, and
workers were badly needed.
DR.. Macarthur, of the Calvary Baptist
church, thought. 1t was the duty of the
community to receive the immigrants,
but to insist that they must stay as Amer
leans. They should be brought into the
churches. He thought little of mission
churches. The beat churches We're none

be always open.

the progress made in tho work of pre-
pairing the way for the proposed cele-
brations. Mayor Smith OF Cincinnati,
as a visitor, took the chair and made a
speech, commenting on the objects that
they had in view.
Mr.. Smith called for the report of the
executive committee. Secretary Ander-
son presented this in an address. He
said that the hundred and ten million peo-
pie of the new world desire to comment
crate the four hundredth Anniversary of
the discovery of America by Columbus,
and eighteen American sister republics
desire to celebrate the centennial of the
inauguration of government upon the
Western Hemisphere. The movement
has received the written endorsement Of
governors Of forty states M territories,
who have formally accepted membership
in the national board OF promotion. 1t
has been endorsed by the mayors Of
fifty-seyen leading cities, 161 boards of
trade throughout the United States, and
the Masons and secretaries of most OF
the state and territorial oranges In
brief 1t has received the cordial and ell
thusisstic approval of the press and pub
lie Of the three Americas. In addition
to this, the government of Spain has acted
officially In the matter, and has expressed
n desire to pay tribute to America by
celebrating the four hundredth ami
versary of its discovery.
Secretary Anderson explained that the
proposed exhibit by merchants and
manufactures is but a temporary affair,
for the six months OF 1892, and should
then be removed, whereas the state and
territorial and the Americas exhibit
should remain for all time as a lasting
monument to the American states and
nations The proposed exhibition OF the
three Americas at Washington, he said,
is a matter Of transcendent practical i'm
portance to the merchants and manu-
%facturers of the United States, and may
easily be made the entering wedge to an
enlarged foreign commerce with the rest
OF this hemisphere.
The members OF the board were ban
quoted in the evening.
