The symptoms Of biliousness are un.
happily but too we'll known. They differ
in different individuals to some extent.
A bilious man is seldom . breakfast
eater. Too frequently, alas, he has an
excellent appetite for liquids, but none
for solids Of q morning. His tongue will
hardly bear inspection at any time; II II
is not white and furred, it is rough, At
all events.
The digestive system 10 wholly out Of
order and diarrhea or constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often hemorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or flatu-
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this If not effect
cure try Green's August FlotOer, it costs
but q trifle and thousands attest its
efficacy.

Keeping Ahead of the Burglars.

From the NeiU York Sun.
An officer of one Of the great safe-making
concerns talked very frankly about his business
the other day. Said he: I'VE do not make
safe that we would guarantee against burglars
They are as smart are. Safe making is
like the science of warfare Each new improve
ment is met by something that beats it, and so
another step in advance has to be taken. We
have to try to keep ahead Of the burglars. We
have got so far as to make safes of solid metal
against drills and all other tools for forty-eight
hours in an open lot, but we cannot insure them
against tremendous explosives. Good burglars
carry few tools now. They take high explosives
in compact form and little arrange
ments for blowing or putting the explosives in
the cracks of the safes. They used to use
powder but it is not powerful enough for blow
ing loose solid doors that weigh many TONS We
first got ahead of them by putting India rubber
in the places where the doors fit into the fra mes,
but they beat that now by pouring in an &C
that eats the rubber out. They put in small
wedges increasing in size till they make an
opening, then putty up all the rest of the crack,
put in their explosive and attach a fuse.
Two do beat their drills. though. We make
the safes of combined layers of hard and soft
metals. The drills that work through hard
metal will not work in softer metal, and, as they
cannot tell which is which, or where each metal
is, they are defied. The best of our devices,
though, is the use of little steel balls in the
walls of burglar proof vaults. When the drills
strike them they get no hold, and even il ball
should be held and broken through another
would fall in it's place"

Whiskey in Congress Twenty Five
Years Ago.

From the NeiU York Times.
The incident related in recent letter about
the whskey drinking practices prevailing about
the House of Representatives twenty or twenty
five years ago has suggested to some veterans
further illustrations of the convival habits of
legislators at little earlier time Before the
House of Representatives was changed from
the old hall, that is now devoted to the recep-
ton and exhibition of statues of specimen
statesmen, theclerk of the House had an Office
in what is now the document room. In an ad
joining apartment the clerk kept barrel of
whlskey always on tap and not very closely
guarded. IL was usually put in at the beginning
Of a session, drawn off in smaller vessel to be
conveniently used on the clerks table, and
everybody who was so disposed was free to use
the liquor. 1t did not cost much for it was
not taxed and it could be bought at
80 or 40 cents gallon. The free use of it some
times made even the clerk of the House frisky
There was one clerk, who was famous for his
size as we'll his originality and his thirst, who
after clicking glasses with friends on the morn
ing of the last day of the session, went to the
door of the Senate with House bill that it was
necessary should be passed. The Senate is in
executive session." he was informed, and
could not admit him. lie returned 10 his room
BY and by he was interrupted as he was about
pouring dram of whisky from pitcher, by a
messenger from the Senate making anxious in
quiry for the bill. Drawing himself up as high
as circumstances would permit, and tossing OFT
his whisky, he answered: You go back to the
Senate and say to the honorable body tqat am
in executive session and cannot be interrupted ."

Gov B11llock's Plan.

Ex- Gov. Bullock's interest in southern
election matters finds expression in frequent
letters to the press In very recent letter
he gives his views with regard to what he
thinks should be done to bring out the al
legged suppressed vote of this section. He
do not favor the plan of placing the cleo
tions under federal control That, he says,
would be step backward. What he pro-
poses is that 1.-THE cotton south be ex-
cluded from congress until our delegates
applying for admission represent a full.
free, fair vote and count in their states and
district
This plan would work hardships upon the
South. 1t would be an attempt to compei
voters to vote, and it would exclude from
congress members who represent free and
fair, though not a full, vote. For instance, a
full vote is very rarely cast in a Georgia dis
trict; therefore. although Gov. Bullock ad-
mits that every qualified voter in this State
who presents himself at the polls IS allowed
to vote, the State would be unrepresented
in the House. In that event, who would
look after Georgia's interest Who would
work for appropriations for her river and
for public buildings, and who would at
tend to other important matters for her
Gov. Bullock does not propose that his
plan shall be applied to the north. He says:
mo harm can come to other sections if
our states and districts remain unrepre-
sented while we are holding experimental
elections, which will at the same time be
experience lessons to ourselves Why
should not the plan be applied to the north
as well as TO the south? There are many
districts in that section where full and free
votes are not cast.
Although Gov. Bullock is opposed to
letting the south alone" experience shows
that that policy is the best for
her. Her industrial progress did not
begin until she was gwen control of her own
affairs, and it will be retarded from the
time this right is taken from her. The south
doesn't need the so-called help of alleged re-
formers. Her ability to attend to her own
affairs must De admitted. 1t is feared that
some Of the alleged reformers are more

than in securinaa continuance of justice to

form methods, let them put them in prac-
| tice in the northern states where election

Mr.. Wharton Barker is on the ragged edge
Of expectancy. He wants to be appointed
Secretary of the Treasury, and he wants
the office very much. If he doesn't get it,
he will be a disappointed man. Says he:
There is, OF course, only one position in
the cabinet that | would accept-that of
Secretary of the Treasury. 1t is the only
one am fitted for, and if do not get it,
shall have greater cause to be disappointed
in General Harrison than any other man
could have. / have known General Hair
rison for long time, and have for eight
years labored earnestly and persistently for
the result that was obtained at Chicago
last summer. OF course, if | am not recog-
nized now, know / never will be. IL am
not appointed Secretary of the Treasury. |
am out of politics forever and completely.
Every one knows that was one of the first
Harrison meu in this country; every one
knows what did at Chicago, and no one
knows these Things letter than General
Harrison himself. He knows my standing
and everything about me; and, well, after
all, there is only one thing TO be said--if
don't get this, shall have great reason to
be disappointed in General Harrison. {"
Gen. Harrison will hardly put two Pennsyl-
vanians IN his cabinet, notwithstanding
that state gave him 10000 or $4,000 major
ity. Either Mr. Barker or Mr.. Wanamaker
probably is doomed TO disappointment.

Mr.. George Alfred Townsend makes this
suggestion: II have once or twice thought,
since the disappearance of the mugwumps,

somebody for not supporting his wife or be-
ing able to explain how he came by every
