The excitement continues unabated. Can more marvellous cures be performed? The wealth and culture of Bridgeport and vicinity throng his office daily. A few weeks ago among the number who called upon the doctor was no less per son than Gen George Bradman of ROch- ester, N. Y.. It appears that the General has been afflicted several years with Ca- tarrh and has been growing quite deaf of late. He came to Bridgeport on busi- ness and hearing Dr Morrow spoken of he sought him for an opinion and receiv- ed not only an opinion, but to his great surprise and joy, perfect cure inside of 4 weeks. James K- Wright of Stratford has been for the past six years suffering a thousand deaths from dyspepsia, liver complaint and diabetes. Notwithstand- ing this almost hopeless complication of disease which has baff1ed the skill of both his home and foreign physicians, 6 weeks treatment with Dr Morrow has entirely restored him to health.

St. Hilda,s Hall, Glendale, Cal.

In the beautiful valley of Glendale, suburb of Los Angeles, is St. Hilda's hall, church boarding and day school for girls. It is due to the effort and en- terprise of Rev Thomas w. Haskins, for merly of Newtown, that Glendale owes this, as he was the originator of the idea and succeeded in arousing the enthusiasm of eager workers who came forward, many of them from other denominations. The school opened in February, 1888, ,un- der the supervision of we'll selected body of instructors. At first, Rev Mir Haskins led the religious exercises daily, but so many were the duties, that it be- came evident that resident clergyman was needed. Rev John D. Easter from the diocese of Illinois, graduate of Yale and of Heidelberg. Germany, was chos- en. Glendale valley is six miles from Los Angeles. near enough to the city to supply all needs and far enough removed to insure the purity of the air and the re- fining influence of the country quiet. St. Hilda's hall is a magnificent building, handsomely furnished, situated in we'll laid out grounds and will accommodate 100 boarding pupils, besides resident teachers. The delightful climate, the rare scenery, the abundance of flowers and the many birds must assist in mak- ing the hall a happy, refined home. In- deed, St. Hilda's hall, being. as it is, un- der pastoral and Episcopal supervision and, with it's fine corps of instructors and great natural advantages, must full fill the pleasing prospect of being a de- lightful Christian home, where the heart and mind may be led to the highest cul- ture and attainments.

Why Texas Farmers Remain Poor.


In conversation the other day with a
stockman from the northern portion of
this state the editor of the Banner was
informed that there would be tremend-
Gus corn crop gathered i'll that section
this fall, and that unless hogs were i'm
ported in large dToves to feed it to, the
gram would be q drug on the market at
fifteen cents q bushel, and that if would
scarcely pay to gather the crop, except
what was necessary for home cOusump-
ton. at that figure. From time
immemorial, almost, the papers have
been full of advice to the farmers to raise
more hog and hominy, and yet the ad-
vice has been only partially needed. 1t
is one Of the strangest and most unac-
countable things in the world
that the farmers of Texas viii
year after year devote their entire en-
ergies to raising corn and cotton solely,
and not pay attention to their immedl-
ate wants and small matters, which can
be attended TO at small cost, and which
in the aggregate are of great Importance.
Year after year they persist IN planting
large crops of cotton and corn to the ex-
cIusion of everything else, when 1t has
been repeatedly demonstrated that
very little if any clear profit is
made on the former crop, while
the latter is left in Ieaky barns
to rot and be eaten up by weevlls. What
little profit the farmer makes from his
cotton crop goes to purchase diseased
pork and bacon from Northern packer
les. while he could save his profits by
raising his meat at home on the corn
which goes to waste. There IS very lit
tie use of raising corn III this state IN
less the farmers will pay attention to
stockrasing and to raising their own
pork. Corn is the great staple of Hi
nOis. Missouri, Kansas and other West
ern states, where it is too cold to raise
cotton, and being nearer the markets
and having the advantage Of cheaper
freight rates it will never prove
profitable for the Texas far
rner to raise corn for expectation. The
Texas farmer must content himself with
raising sufficient corn to supply his own
section, and he must raise h0gsiand i'm
proved stock TO feed the balance of 1t to
if he would. prosper, And just so long
as he neglects to raFse his own meat and
! to diversity his.eTof4s ne will continue to
eornplainof hard times and. And it diff
| cuft5fo make both ends NEST. Farmers
alliances and other combinations will
| never do any good anti they introduce
and encourage plain, sensible and prac-
teal methods in farming and work upon
| economic principles

CHJcAGO AND THE SOUTH.

Chicago now stands before the South asking
a favor. To gain the charter of congress for the
Worlds fair the votes OF the Gulf states will be
needed-cannot be spared.
But what has been the effect of the never
ceasing and abominable screeds which have for
twenty years been vomited upon the South by
the Republican press of this city?
To serve the basest partisan purposes, to keep
the bloody shirt at the mast of the ship of state
a BLACKBOARD press has left behind it an unex-
ampIed record of villifcation, libel, rancor and
false report. To cater to such press , Repubi-
can correspondents in the South have thrown the
red light of civil war on each local affray.
Every quarrel has been called a political insur-
rection. A police court item has been q massa-
ere. A feud, old as the settlement, has been an
alteration over the last bill in congress Thus
has the corps of scandal and opprobFium labored
to keep alive the brand of hatred that elsewise
might have expired in the exhausted brains of
Republican aspeTsiOn at Chicago.
The South has been baIted and annoyed by
Chicago blackguards for twenty years. They
represented nobody, but they put Chicago for
ward as the asylum ofall the hatreds of de-
Gazing generation. The South has peered into
our temples, fully xpecting to the lamp of
civil war still burning sacred oil. AS Charles.
ton once stood in the North for secession, so
Chicago seems advertised as the special foe of
the South This hostility its citizens do not
iceland a cowardly anger, such as the knavish
Republican press has expressed, the citizens
never have felt.
Now that Chicago must ask that the common
wealths tributary to Chicago shall lend their aid
to defeat New York and exalt Chicago, will the
South so act? Is Chica go prepared to suffer for
the folly, the malice and the genuine wickedness
OF the sIanderers who have persevered in impun-
ity through a double decade of Republican de-
famation Chicago Herald.
While all men resent injustice such as the
South and its people are subjected to by
certain newspapers in the North, it is
not probable that any opposition to Chi
cago will be developed in the South be-
cause of the Misrepresentation Of its
people by certain Chicago newspapers.
The South has been accustomed to this
for quarter of century and has
learned TO prosper despite the mlsrepre-
sensations sent out ito the world, and
which were calculated, il not intended,
to prevent people and capital from COM
ing into the South. The South

Good Roads Wanted.
Scranton Truth.


In the matter of roads it is said that
France and Germany lead all other coun-
tries. Neither country spares pains or
expense to keep their highways in good
condition. During several months in the
year they are cleaned daily, and the
slightest damage is promptly repaired in
country and town. Our commonwealth,
as well as probably many others of the
Union, might adyantageously adopt the
''effete'' customs of the Old World in
the matter. There is probably nothing
that comes under the public eye that so
strongly suggests carelessness and indit-
ference on the part of an alleged progress
sive community as the condition Of its
highways. Ease and comfort of trans
portatiOn and inter- communication be-
tween communities and people Is the
strongest evidence of regard, public or
private. No one invites a friend to his
house and then compels hjI TO wade
through mud and scramble over loose
cobbles to get there. In the same way
community discOurages trade. A tramp
through divers rural sections, within the
Scranton environment when the frost is
coming out of the ground or when the
road bed is one of impalpable alE-pervad-
ing dust is anything but ecstatic.
@ere American tourists to study the
French system of road making and intro
duce it on the western side of the Allan
tic they would deserve well of their coun-
try, and We could forgive them for
lurking fondness for French travel. The
roads are quite as important and possibly
q more improving subject than the EitteI
tower, or the Champs de ElYsees, to
which many of our cOuntrymen are sald
to resort As matter of fact road max
ing in this country has not kept pace with
progress in other directions.

DALZELL ON TANNER.

According to Private Dalzell there is
gong to be trouble. A few days before
Corp. Tanner s rem oval the private wrote
to the New York Herald as follows:
Remove Corp. Tanner! Oh, 1 guess not! 1t
would cost the Republicans every state North
this year of grace, 1882, and both houses before
two wears It would occasion such q revolt
among the boys in blue they would leave the
party in body. No danger CT Corp. Tanners
removal!
Better remove the entire cabinet He has two
reasons for hol ding office no other official has at
Washington-two legs shot off in battle, and one
other rea son no man ever had before, and that is
he was a private soldier. the only one ever yet
honored with an office by any adm inistration
and the only one that ever viii be. So he must
remain!
No, sir; he will not be removed! If he were
removed Foraker would decline to remain on
the ticket in Ohio. His doom would be sealed
from that hour. The soldiers are swearing mad,
bowling, cursing, damning mad at the malice
and jealousy of the aristocrats who are hound
ing our comrade to his death. Woe, woe to
them if they down Tanner; for, by the God that
rules and refgns, if they touch hair of his head
we will scalp every man of them.
Our vengeance Will stop It nothing lawful.
A great bluff, but it wouldn't work,
and the treasury looter had to go. When
the axe finally fell, and the Corps head
was borne on a plate to Secretary Noble,
the private screamed, 81 am too indig-
nant to write, and so the matter
