Mr.. NJ. s. Hamlin, one of the best known
insurance men in North Carolina, writes
from Winston, as follows: Ever since I
was seven years of age have had what
the doctors call hip disease, and which I
call white swelling. My hip was drawn
out of place. There was swelling at the
knee-joint, where there is profuse rum
ming, which has been there for years. OF
course this has greatly depleted my sys-

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. Nav. q. 1884,

WASHINGTON, May. Is, 1850
Editor Herald:
When the Mills tariff bill comes up un-
der the five minute rule, to be considered
by sections, which will probably be next
week, the republicans will endeavor to
amend it in many ways. In the mean
time the republican leaders hope to agree
on bill which will be offered as a sub
stitute for the Mills bill, but the present
prospects of any such agreement are by
no means fattering.
There will probably be new member
OF the cabinet before long, as the senate
committee on agriculture has made IA
vorable report on the bill, which has al
ready passed the house, to enlarge the
duties of agriculture and make it an ex-
ecutive department. The bill, as it
passed the house provided for the trans
fer of the weather bureau to the depart
ment otagriculture. The senate commit
tee struck that clause out. The house
bill to establish a department of labor
has been passed by the senate slightly
amended.
Strange as it may appear, it is never
theless true that the question of whether
the fisheries treaty shall be considered
by the senate in open or secret sessions
has been made political one. The re-
publicans voted for open sessions and the
democrats for secret ones. The nominal
ton of Mr.. Fuller to be chief justice of
the United States was discussed by the
senate judiciary committee at its regular
meeting on Monday, but at the request
Ex-senator Ingalls,, action was postponed.
The inkstand that was used by the late
Senator Conkling on his office desk ever
since he began to practice law in New
York city, has been sent to a gentleman
in this city, who prizes it very highly as
a memento of the dead statesman.
The greedy policy adopted by ex-Sena-
tor Malone of Virginia, has resulted in
a split in the republican party in that
state which will make Virginia almost
certain to go democratic this year.

Mumps is the order of the day on the
Prairie. Frank Farris is just recovering
from a double dose of them and more are
coming down.
A strange epidemic, similar to a cold,
is also running its course through the
neighborhood. The patient coughs in
cessantly, appetite fails, and he has every
appearance ola terrible cold on the lungs.
Every remedy fails, but at the end of
three Or four weeks the cough ceases and
the patient RECEIVERS. Herbie Mcintyre,
the thirteen year old son of M. E. Nc
Intyre, is having severe attack of this
strange disease, and the alarming symp-
tom in his case, is that the ordinary
three or four weeks has passed, and he
does not recover. Mrs. Mcintyre is also
indisposed.
A fire over in the southern part of the
neighborhood last week, consumed the
granary belonging to Mrs. Grimes, also
forty bushels of oats and some young
calves. Burning rubbish superintended
by boy who grew tired of the confne-
ment and ran off to school, was the cause
of the loss
The Lou Morris farm has changed
hands, Doc Smith being the present own

Emerson farm near Grove Lake has also
been sold. The Washington Territory
and Oregon fever seems to be the general
cause of sales.

this. The local editor, in proportion to

any other ten men, and in all fairness,
man with man, ne ought to be supported

The usual treatment of catarrh is very

CALIFORNIA LETTER.
San Jose, Cal.
May Dist, 1888.
Editor Herald:
There is an old saying that it is "better
late than never, so have made up my
mind to apply this rule to myself, and
after an absence of nearly four years
from Sank Centre, somewhat renew my
acquaintance. But business first. En-
closed find six dollars, which please cred
it me with on my account with the HER
AID, and excuse me for being so negligent.
We all still enjoy reading the HERALD,
although the old familiar names are grad
ually dropping out of its columns. All
those who came here from Sank Centre
are now genuine Californians. After
once living here for year or two how
any one can help but fall in love with the
place, is more than can conceive. Here
we have no weather colder than thirty
eight degrees above zero, and that very
exceptional. Last winter was the cold
est ever known here, and still any day
almost. you would see ladies on the
street dressed in light, airy goods, and
carrying parasols to protect themselves
from the rays of the sun. While the sum-
mers are cool and pleasant from May to
October, there is scarcely a day that the
sun does not rise and set in a sky upon
which not the faintest cloud can be seen
to mar the beauty of the effect, and no
one suffers with the heat, still it gets
very warm; it's nonsense for any one to
say that it does not, but it is so different
from Minnesota heat, as breeze is al
ways blowing after eleven A. M, and the
nights are always cool and refreshing;
no sultry nights to break a man of his
rest so that he awakes all tired out in the
morning.
This spring was very much pleased
to receive call from our old friend, J.
M. Apfeld. He was looking hale and
hearty, and is settled in San Diego, Cal.
I also was told that S. Pendergast was
in San Jose, and inquired for me, but did
not see him. The people here now seem
like old friends. You have perhaps been
told how distant and unapproachable
people are here; this in a certain way is
true, and the cause is this: so many
people are constantly coming here, from
all parts of the civilized globe, that until
they find out that you have come to stay
they naturally are trife distant, but 1
am happy to say that my experience at
present is far different. Please excuse
this long and tiresome letter, and per-
haps in the near future will attempt to
give you a description of the famous
Lick telescope, the largest in the world,
which saw last Sunday.
Yours truly,
