man may lift with both hands from 200
TO 200 pounds; his shoulders will support
$50 pounds When his weight to his load
is as from to 3, man can lift with best
eflrct He can push horizontally about
10 pounds and pulling together men can
pull about 40 pounds each. But in carry
ing or lifting without some definite rule
for guidance, men are always apt to over
estimate their strength or the strength
of their draft animals Hence, as q con-
sequence, many serious strains follow,
which, if not taken in time, settle into
chronic pains deformities An i'm
mediate application of st. Jacobs Oil to
man or beast, thoroughly followed up un-
til the overstrained muscles renew their
strength and the pain ceases, then cure
follows, and it is handy and cheap mode
of getting over q very trying difficulty.
By way of example, Mr.. George M. Gray,
city. bill poster, Dover, N. H., made his
original statement in 1878. June 81, 1887,
he writes about nine years ago sprained
my back; had to be carried home In
stead of going to the doctor I used st.
Jacobs Oil. In three days was out with
a cane; in three weeks was all right with
out cane-cured. No return of pain" Mr..
W. T. Dowdall, postmaster, Peoria, H.,
made his original statement in 1881:
"Over two months ago fell on the ice,
badly dislocating my shoulder, causing
great suffering until got st. Jacobs Oil.
First application to my surprise gave great
relief; one-half bottle cured" June 20,
1887, he says: ut cured me- Can't add
anything. 1 think it a great remedy"
Mr.. S.W. Dixon, Baraboo Station, Wis, June
Ia, 1887.--"Have not felt the least effects
from my hurt since I was cured three
years ago. Fell from my engine then and md
life was knocked out of me-" Mr.. John

there is no danger from these accidents.

WINS THE ALLEN CUP.
The Rifle Match at tho ArrAory Las


Inc RHO N18teh AZ inc ArEAOFT Last
Night.
The rifle match for the Captain Allen cup
between teams of the City battalion was de-
cided last night, Company E, the Light Guard,
being awarded the prize. The Sarsfeld
Guard did not shoot last night and the match
therefore was confined to the Light Guard
and the Blues. The following are the scores:
Companp E-G. Fl. Rogers %, J. w. Landon
90, j. H. Parker 81, 6. S. Holmes %, R. NJ.
Walker 81, G. S. Holmes substitute for F.
Allen %; total 158, total of last week 100;
grand total 31e Company D-Holbrook "A
Happier %; Booth 26, Seymour %, Beach 81,
Young 26; total 146, total of last week 40;
grand total 295.
In order for the Sarsfeld Guard to win the
cup each man will be obliged to make an av-
erage total of 81, an impossibility.
Next Monday night the Second regiment
team will shoot a match at the Second regi-
ment armory rifle range with the Fourth reg
iment team under Inspector of Rife Practice
Kingman.

Masonic IRsurauce.

Mrs Doretta Klenke, wife of Selectman
Klenke, who died the 18th inst, was mem-
Der of the Masonic Protective society of this
city, she having joined July %, 1879. The
total cost of her membership during the past
nine years was only twenty-six dollars. The
amount to be paid to her beneficiary by the
society will be three hundred and thirty
nine dollars. This is the first death that has
occurred in this benefit association for the
past year, surely most desirable record for
its membership. Secretary w. A. Beers will
issue assessment cards in few days.

THE FIRST FIRE


Since the Big Blizzard-Damage Slight.
The streets of the city were cleared of the
huge drifts of snow none too soon. The first
alarm of fire since the blizzard was sounded
yesterday afternoon from box 80, at the cor
ner of Water and Brewery streets, fire hay
ing been discovered in James H. Leeds plan
ing mill on Water street.
Luckily the fire was small one and of nc
consequence, the fire department being late
in responding. This was due to the condi-
ton of the streets, which in some places
were so bad that the engines were obliged
to travel slowly for fear of breaking the
springs and perhaps everturning the ponder
Gus machines.
The damage by the fire will, it is esti-
mated, not exceed $3.50.
Funeral of John Condor.
The funeral of the late John Condor took
place yesterday morning at st. Patrioks
church. The Rev. Father Rigney oficiated.
The bearers were James Murphy, John Mo
Brien, William Neenan, Henry Coyle, Will
liam O'Keefe and John Reagan.

story of the Blizzard

WnLrMANT1c, March ia story of terri
BILE suffering in the late blizzard has just
come to light from Exeter village in Lebanon
ten miles south of Willimantic. T. A. Car
penter lately sold out his wood yard in Will
limantic and bought farm in Exeter. About
8 O'Clock last Tuesday morning Mr.. Carpenter
was awakened by his dog whining. He got
up to go down stairs to let the dog out and
back to rescue his wife and three year old
child and the FIRE spread SO radidly that they
had just time to escape in. their night cloth
ing. They went out in the terrible storm
and deep drifts and stood by tree to watch
the house burn After three quarters of an
hour Charles Strong. a relative living half q
mile away, arrived on the scene, having been
awakened by the light of the fire. He found
the Carpenter family dazsd and almost dumb
with the cold. Other neighbors soon came
and the suffering ones were removed to the
nearest house, forty rods distant. The house
was totally destroyed; insurance 81 900. The
mother and child were terribly chilled and
Mr.. Carpenter had both feet frozen, but
prompt care and attendance probably pre-
vented serious results.

ssLeng Live tho King, Thrice Repeat-
ed by His Faithful Subjects.
BERLIN, March 19.-The united sitting of
the Landtag to hear the royal message to-day
was invested with unusual interest and the
galleries overlooked with visitors. After the
reading the Duke Won Ratibor, president of
the upper house, asked the assembly to mark
the kings faithful attachment and devotion
and unite in the cry, fsLong live King Fred
erick!" The cheer was thrice repeated. The
diet then adjourned. The message which
was countersigned by all the ministers says:
The sentiments and purposes with which
we enter upon our government and the prin-
ciples on which we would exercise our royal
Office have been proclaimed by US to our
faithful people. Walking in the paths
our glorious father we shall know no other
aim of our striving than the happiness and
welfare of the fatherland. By conscientiously
observing the constitution, fully safeguarding
all prerogatives of the crown and loyalty CO.
operating with the national representation,
the King hopes with Gods help to attain his
object, which is the happiness and welfare of
the country. His condition of health prevents
him from taking the oath personally. De-
string to declare without delay bis position
regarding the constitutional laws although
this could admit of no doubt he now solemn
ly undertakes to adhere to the constitution
firmly and inviolately and to rule in confor-
nifty with the laws
The Emperor's message signed Frederick"
and countersigned Bismarck" was read to
the Reiehstag to-day by President Piesdorf.
It announces his firm intention to uphold
the constitution and to conseientiously re-
spect and guard the rights of the individual
federal States and the Reichstag. He ex-
presses full consciousness of his ex-
allied task and declares he will al
ways endeavor in conjunction with
the princes and the free terms of the confed-
GRAFTON and with the constitutional co-opera-
ton of the Reichstag to shield Justice, free
dom and order throughout the fatherland,
and to maintain peace at home and abroad.
He recites that the last days of the late En-
peror were strengthened by the unanimity of
the Reichstag in the determination to in
crease the defensive power in order
to assure the security of the empire, and con-
Guiding says: 'tAnd We, as legacy, express
new thanks for the patriotism and devotion
SO shewn, and trusting in the peoples love
of peace place the future of the empire in
Gods hands" The message is dated Char

Horses have small stomachs; remember
this. A good plan is to divide corn ra-
tions into three daily portions, the hay
two. Many object to giving hay just
previous to work as it distends tho
stomach and causes the animal incon-
vcniencc.
Delicate feeders must be tempted TO
take their rations and such should never
be fed too strongly at one time "A Scotch
plate is a rule very generally observed in
England-everything cleaned up before
placing other food in he racks or managers.
A little linsecd boiled to a jelly and mixed
with the corn is seductive. Hay dampened
and sailed will tempt others. Beans
