And somo Particulars as to their Anti
dotes.

When ammonia water has been
drank, vinegar and water should be
given freely and on the instant. This
may be followed by copious acid
drinks, lemonade, orange juice, etc.

useful; ice freely employed will some.

Arnica is sometimes drank by mis-

the stomach thoroughly with an emetic

castor oil, if it can be borne, are the
first important steps in treatment.
Paregoric will subdue the pain and, ii
the headache persists, employ a hot

empty the stomach and. if vomiting
does not occur at once, the fingers
should be thrust into the throat.
Brandy and water is injected torestore
heart action.
In arsenical poisoning, the first
thing to do is to eXpel the poison from
the stomach, using mustard and
water, assisted with large quantities OF
MILL nnh limo
water, oil and lime water, or flour and
water. In the meantime send for the
only true antidote, hydrated peroxide
of iron, which should be administered
moist and in large quantities after
vomiting is induced. Finally a gen.
erous dose of castor oil should be
| given. Stimulants, ice and opium are

cines are preparedwith a strong alcohol

Over One Hundred Killed.

One of the most horrible mine dis.
asters on record occurred near Pitts
burg, Kansas, on Friday evening last.
The men 10 the coal mine at From
tenac were just preparing to leave the
mine, when a terrible explosion was
heard which shook the earth for some
distance. Over $50 men were in the
mine, aud although every human effort
has since been made, but one man has
been rescued alive. The scenes about
the place, of hOrror.stricken women
aud children, can only be imagined
Many have lost their reason and be-
come raving maniaes.

The New Lien Law Set Aside.

The decision of the Supreme Court of
the State given by Justice Williams in
Pittsburgh on Monday of last week, sets
aside the entire new lien law passed by
the last Legislature on the broad ground
that it is unconstitutional. The Legisla-
ture strangely omitted to recite the lien
laws of 1886 and 1S45 which it intended to
amend, and that is so clearly in disregard
of positive mandate Of the Constitution
the Supreme Court could do no less than
declare the act null and void.
The effect of the decision of the Supreme
Court will be to destroy all liens entered
against properties by individual mechan-
les or material men dealing with sub-con-
tractors. Many such have been entered
during the last year, instead of claiming
and entering them only "on the basis of a
contract, expressed or implied, with the
owner and on the credit of the building"
as the Supreme Court defines the rights
and all such liens will be valueless and
the costs will fall upon those who entered
them.
This decision of the court of last resort
does not comprise the mechanics liens Of
the State, except as they have been enter
ed by individuals or dealers with sub
contractors under the act of January IL
1887. The acts of 1886 and ls45, with the
judicial decisions made under them, re-
main in full force, and all liens entered by
material men or mechanics in accordance
with the old laws, as nine-tenths of al
have been, are valid liens and fully pro
tect parties in their claims. / Phila. Times

assertion that Fred Douglass has that

THE Charleston, Is. O. Ne,Os and
Courier has published the opinions of
the thirty county chairmen on the
situation. Que of the leading demo.
Gratis in the state created a sensation
by saying: 81, for one, am getting
tired of being used as a catspaw TO
rake the chestnuts out of the fire for
northern politicians of New York, OF
the Hewitt Hill Grant stripe. For
twenty years or more these people have
been using us to serve their selfish
ends. The solid south has been used
as a catspaw by them and the solid
south is a solidi6ed fool if it does moi
kick over the traces. What would
do? Why, do this: l would have q
convention of the southern states; lei
the convention meet and discuss the
situation; let US say to the republican
national committee: We are tired o.
this thing and We want to break
through the traces. Give us your as
surance that you will leave US alone tC
manage our state affairs and that you
will give US decent federal officials ir
the south, and we will break up tht
solid south, we will cut loose from
Tammany and the county democrac!
and Hill and all the rest of it, an(
vote for the best man for president
whether he be republican or dem
ocrat."

THE RESULT.

The result Of the recent great cam
paigu is doubtless ere this known to
every man, woman and child in the
country, As that facetious Democrat,
Sunset Cox, puts it, General Harri
son is thoroughly elected in every re-
spect." New York gives him a trife
over 10000 plurality; Indiana abont
5000, and the Blaine States of 'S4
have given increased pluralities. West
Virginia's vote is still in doubt and
will likely require the official count to
decide, although the Republicans still
claim the State. 1t will make no diff
ference in the national contest, but the
state has u. S. Senator to elect,
which makes the contest extremely
hot.
Ths Delaware legislature is also
very close, and it is rumored there is
an effort on foot 10 steal the State from
the Republicans. This will not be
done if the court knows herself, and
il is likely the Republicans will gain
a Senator in that state. General Har.
rison will have at least 233 electoral
votes, or 80 more than are necessary
to elect him, and if West Virginia has
given him her vote he will have 239.
The latest congressional figures in.
dicate that the Republicans will have
about Is majority, and perhaps more.
This is as it should be. 1t was the
general feeling and desire among Re.
publicans that if the Democrats elect
ed Cleveland they would carry Con-
gress with it, and it seems the Demo-
Gratis had about the same feeling in the
event of Harrison's election.
Pennsylvania rolls up majority for
Harrison almost equal to that given
Blaine, the official count showing
1879, whereas Blaine's plurality was
S1,0l9. The Republicans also gain
one Congressman in this state, while
both the House and Senate will be
Republican by increased majorities.

MISCELLANEOUS.
The First Sign

OF failing health, whether in the form Of
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a
sense of General WEAKNESS and Loss Of
Appetite, should suggest the use Of
Ayers Sarsaparilla- This preparation
is most effective for giving tone and
strength to the erfeebled system, pro-
noting the digestion ard assimilation Of
food, restoring the nervous forces to
their normal condition, ard for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.
Falling Health.
Ten years ego my health began to fail.
/ was troubled with a distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. ! tried various remedies pre-
scribed by different physicians, but
became SD weak that could not go up
stairs without stopping to rest. My
Sarsaparilla, which did, and am now
rs healthy and strong as ever. Mrs.
e. Z. Williams, Alexandria, MINI.
have used Ayers Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula. and Know, if it is
taken faithfully. that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terrible disease. I have
also prescribed it as tonic, as well as an
Alternative, and must say that honestly
believe it to be the hest blood medicine
ever rcoInpounded.-W.F F. Fowler, II. D.,
ID D. s., Greenyile, Tenn.
dyspepsia Cured.
It would be impossible for me to de-
scribe what I suffered from Indigestion
and Headache up to the time / began
taking Ayers Sarsaparilla. Twas under
the care of various physicians, and tried
q great many kinds of medicines, but
never obtained more than temporary re-
lief. After taking Ayers Sarsaparilla
for short time, my headache disap-
peared, and my stomach performed its
duties more perfectly. To-day my
health is completely restored. Mary
Harley, Springfield, Mass.
Z have been greatly benefited by the
prompt use of Ayers Sarsaparilia. It
tones and invigorates the system, regu-
lates the action of the digestive and
assi.nilative organs, and vitalizes the
blood. 1t is, without doubt, the most
reliable blood purifier yet discovered
