THE LOST ATLANTIS.

For many centuries there has been q
tradition oi long lost island called At
lantis.
The Greek geographers located IT in
the Atlantic Ocean, west of the north
weft part Of Africa and the Pillars OF
Hercules. The sea kings OF Atlantis are
said to have invaded Europe and Africa,
aud to have been defeated by the Athen-
ians.
All the legends agree that 1t was vast
island, OF inexhaustible resources, and
inhabited by race of superior people.
For ages this island has existed only In
legendary lore. But now, when the light
OF modern research Is turned full upon
the Investigation, behold the lost Atlantis
at our very doors.
So the bieoted medical fraternity goes
cropping about In the dark, seeking for
an Atlantis or Esculapius, when, II they
would investigate, they would behold the
lost Atlantis at their very door. With
their ancient text book, case of physic,
a paper In their waistcoat giving Them
license to practice, experiment and dose
with their Injurious drugs, canterize and
perform unnecessary acts, with no per-
son or laws to hold them accountable,
they continue their bigoted, unjustitied
practice, staring into vacancy, and imag-
lining that they see In themselves an Es-
culapiue.
Wrapped in ancient blgotry, they are
crying out against all improv ments that
have been made in medical science. They
denouncs any new idea advanced by q
layman or an opposition school as Q
| fraud.
Why?
Because humi uity will not be bene-
fltedl Not at all, but because their
special ism did not make the discovery.
Yet they concede that there Is no rem
edy known to their materla medica that
will cure an advanced kidney malady and
the diseases arising observation-disclosures
many of them know from crowning proof
that Warmers Safe Cure will-but un-
scrupulously treat symptoms and call
them disease, when In reality they know
they are but symptoms.
| A few OF the more honest physicians
admit that Warmers Safe Cure Is valua-
bic remedy, and great Blessing to man
kind, but say, In 80 many words, when
asked why they do not prescribe IT.,
that they cannot, according to their
code.
Nevertheless, the world is fast becom.
ing satisfied that the cure for kidney and
liver diseases, In whatever form or con-
ulbiOur HAS uC6u uibCoNCNcut huo thSto ih
no doubt but what Warmers Safe Cure
and its fame will live long after such
bigoiry as we bave instanced is dead and
buried.
The late eminent ply s'clan and writer,
DR.. J. G. Holland, published In "scrib-
ner's Monthly" and showed his opinion
of such bigotry, aud no doubt was salts
fled that Atlantis might possibly be dis
covered In proprietary medicne, when
he wrote editorially, ss follows:
Nevertheless, 1t Is a fact that many o.
the best proprietary medicines of the day
were m re successful than many of the
physical s, aud most of them, It should
be remembered, were first discovered ol
used In actual medical practice. When
however, any shrewd person, knowing
their virtue, and foreseeng their popu
larity, secures and advertises them, then

TANNER is BOSS:
He Can Do As He Pleases.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The New
York Star correspondent writes to that
paper as follows: As the result of Com
missioner Tanners interview with the
President 1t may be stated, upon the
best authority, that Tanner will stick.
Ali the efforts made for his removal
have failed, The President has turned
down both Window and Noble, and
sustains Tanner, with mild reprimand
and permitting his official subordinates
to run away with him. The reratings
and back pay which Tanners subordi-
mates gave themselves will have to be
refunded. The amount is understood
to be in the neighborhood of $4,000.
Corporal Tanner will go to the Grand
Army encampmenta at Milwaukee fly
ing the administration colors at his
peak. Mr.. Harrison has practically de-
cided that when congress appropriates
10000, 900 for the years pension list
the commissioner of pensions has the
right to increase the Disbursements by
his rulings and reratings to $120, ,000, 900,
and congress must make up the differ
ence by.a deficiency appropriation, or
the Republican party will lose Ohio.

LEBANON, o., Aug. 2.-The Graham
investigating committee made q par
tial report at noon to-day. Since Sept.
5, 1887, Graham has drawn $17,772.42,
OF that amount, $40, ,463.37 was illegal
and drawn. on fraudulent warrants.
The auditor also received warrants from
auditors of Butler and Montgomery
counties to the amount of ST ,164, ,72,
which he appropriated to his own use.
In addition to these amounts, there are
fraudulent warrants found in the treas
urer's Office stamped paid, of which no
record is made in the auditors order
book, to the amount of $63, ,2ll.09. In
the fall of the year 1888 the commits
sioners sold $4,000 worth of bonds.
The money was turned over to treasur-
er Coleman, who has never charged
himself with it, nor, does it appear on
his books. The report severely criticises
the action of the commissioners. At
the conclusion of the report Coleman
was arrested on two charges of embez-
of $685. 900, the other 81
200. He was taken before Squire Black
burn and pleaded not guilty. At the
request of his attorneys the case was
continued. This report was not final.
The committee hopes to finish their
work and make the final report in few
DAYS.

Anew Scheme for Natural Gas.
1t Can BE Had Solid by the Barrel

ANDERSON, Ind, Aug. 1.-The pro
cess of condensing natural gas, invented
and patented by Adrian Hill, of this
city, is attracting widespread attention.
Every mail brings letters from capital
lists inquiring into the merits of the
invention. The great possibilities of it
have attracted the attention of the
Standard oil company, and representa-
tives of that corporation from Cleveland
and New York have made the inventor
fiattering propositions should the plan
prove success. Hill said there could
be no doubt as to the possibility of his
process. els now engaged in thecon-
struction of necessary apparatus and
will shortly give practical exhibition
by reducing quantity of natural gas
into solid substance. The process itself,
as well as the machinery needed to car
ry it out, is very simple. Gas when
transformed into solid matter is not
dangerous to handle. Its expansive
force is very great and when the SUBJ
stance becomes heated above a certain
degree it will become very volatile and
will burst an ordinary cask or can, but
the effect is gradual and 1t does not ex-
plode. The inventor claims that with a
ten-horse power engine he can reduce
enough gas in one day to supply q city
of 10000 inhabitants with fuel for "a
hours.

They are Not Arond Now.

Itwould require a great deal more
gall than is possessed by the average
blab-mouthed protectionist of last fall
to stand up before an audience now and
proclaim that if Ben. Harrison is elect
ed we will have plenty of work, wages
will go up, and times will be more pros
porous than they have ever been. We
would give our farm to have such man
come up to our office and talk to us
about five minutes, and then read our
exchanges, those that last fall favored
that protection humbug and fraud. 1t
is the signs of the times now that pro-
lection is going to hell faster than the
devil really wants it. Protection! Great
God, how the protectionists do tremble
now. We thank God that our heart
was in the right place last fall when we
tried to make the working people see
things as we saw them. But they
failed TO do SO then. They see them
now, and tits gratifying to us to know
that they see them in all their hideous-
ness, and they do not fear any more
to say so. The world do move -
thanks be to American intelligence.

Progress of Inventions Since 1s45.

In the year 1S45 the present owners of the Scien.

only 502 patents issued from the U. S. Patent Of
hce and the total Issue from the establishment of
the Patent Office, up to the end of that year, num-
bered only 4,347.
Up to the first of July this year there have been

CANNlBALS

Bloody Indians in British Columbia.

OTTAWA, Aug. Am agent of the
dominion government, who has been
exploring in the northern part of Brit
ish Columbia, reports the discovery of a
tribe Of Indians who have for genera
tions INDUCED In cannibalism as one of
their sacred ordinances during what is
known as their winter dances. They
are the Tsimpsheans, or Kwagutls, and
believe that the Hamadtsi is q
spirit living entirely upon human flesh
in the mountains. Many years ago a
number Of the tribe went into the
mountains, and having encountered the
mythical Hamadsti became ghouls or
Hamadtsis themselves. Their families
alone possess the right of being initiated
by going away, fasting in the woods to
meet Hamadtsi. The sole purpose is to
show the tribe that they are different
from ordinary men, and do not care
what they eat or what they suffer.
FOrmerlya captive or slave was killed
and presented to the initiated and the
older Hamadtsis would eat the body in
the presence of general assembly of
the people. More recently, although
slavery is not wholly extinct, the In
dians have become afraid to kill. so
they are reduced to the stealing of q
body. After eating the Hamadtsi do
not taste food for some days, but drink
warm water. Up to the time of eating
a body in public the initiate, whenever
he appears from the woods bites indis-
criminately, woman being, however,
generally exempt. Formerly the faces
were bitten, nose and ears especially,
but now the initiate merely lifts the
flesh of mans arm with his teeth,
which is sliced off with knife by a by
stander, and probably spat out in Sc
cret. The father of the initiate pays
everybody who has been bitten from
two to ten blankets. There are few men
in the Kwagutl tribes unscarred by this
practice.
