our citizens that for years we have
been selling DR.. Kings New Discovery
for consumption, DIR. Kings New Life
Pills, Bucklin's Arnica Salve and Elec-

remedies that sell as well, or that

We do not hesitate to guarantee them
every time, and we stand ready to re-
fund the purchase price if satisfactory
results do not follow their use. These
remedies have won their great popu-

WE often excuse ourselves for COM
hitting faults, and even sins, when we
know it is wrong to do so. This is but
making the delinquencies more en-

the conscience.

hundred brawny settlers with q fixed de-
termination to hang the murderer. The
crowd, learning that the Indian knew
Wright's hiding place, asked him to reveal
1t, but on getting no answer the heavlng
line of the propeller was placed around his
neck, and he was hung up to a pine tree
until nearly strangled and let down to get
his story. He at last confessed that Wright
was hiding on the North bluffs, and had
made arrangements with him to await the
departure of the lumber barge Seymour,
then to meet him with a skiff and place him
on board. The boOk-keeper, Fred Crosset.
was next questioned. He confessed all he
knew of the crime. During the midst of
this confession Wright suddenly appeared
at the edge of the woods and voluntarily
surrendered to the sheriff. at the same time
claiming protection. He was at once taken
on board the steamer. Late last night the
authorities, feeling apprehensive and fear
ing a lynching party, hired the steamer
Dewar and took Wright to Manistee Jail,
thirty miles distant, for safe keeping.

United States minister, and many members

signed petition for the reprieve of Mrs.
Maybrick.
Members of Parliament whose relations
with the Home Secretary are intimate, ex-
press the belief that he will postpone ac-
ton in the case of Mrs. Maybrick until the
last moment with the idea that she may yet
confess. This was the course Mr.. Matthews
pursued in the case of Lipski. and while
the whole English nation was howling for
his pardon as an innocent man. the mur-
derer very ungratefully confessed his crime
and Mr.. Matthews was vindicated. This
maneuver cannot, however, be expected to
work twice. Mrs. Maybrick has, undoubt-
edly been posted, and If she is guilty will
be led to expect pardon up to the moment

erence to the alleged violation of the con-

glass-blowers. This case promises 20 de-

member of the knights of Labor, from
Pittsburg. who is now in the city, says
that the government will have great
difficulty in proving that there was any
contract between the men an their pres
ent employers although there is no doubt
that there was constructive violation of

this gentleman, 1.-THE local assembly of the
X. Of L. which contains the great body of
Pittsburg glass-blowers, discovered that
there would be work for more of their craft
than were to be found In Pittsburg. The
master workman was, in consequence,
directed by the assembly to communicate
with labor organization in England and
tell the glass-blowers there that if any of
them wanted work there would probably
be chance for them in Pittsburs. The
men came over and work was found for
them. do not think it is possible to prove
that the employers who secured the serv-
ices of these mechanics knew anything
about their intended immigration until
they had landed. There certainly was no
contract, but the law was enacted for the
purpose of keeping out mechanics and Ia
bOrers who might come to take the place of
strikers. or otherwise injure the labor mar
ket. 1t seems that the act was loaded at
both ends" This importation grew out of
the fight in Pittsburg between the Knights
and the Glass-blowers' Union. The union
men struck at this mill, and the Knights
filled their places.

ated much uneasiness among his many
friends here and in New York. He had
been visiting friends in this city for four
weeks, stopping at the residence of United

for home on the s o'clock express, on

telegraphing his wife that he would arrive
home Tuesday evening Since then nothing
has been heard of him, and his wife and
relatives fear the worst. He had quite q
large amount of money on his person,
which gives rise to suspicion of foul
play. Mr.. Blair says that the fam
lily relations of Mr.. Fuess were of
the most pleasant nature, and he was not a
drinking man either. He cannot advance
theory to account for his disappearance.
According to Mr.. Blair. the missing man
anticipated trouble of some kind. He ap-
peared nervous all day previous to his de-
parture, and repeatedly said that he must

go. Mr.. Fuess had a host of friends here

until work is resumed, and that may not
