LOSSES OF STOCK
Latest Report Made hy the Department
 of sricIlture at Washington.
HO2S KS

hO6o no
 The losses from all causes for the entire country average l.5 per cent as compared with l.S year ago. The tables on losses given, when compared with corresponding tables for iast year, shows a noticeable re ddction in the percentage of many ] of the states and territories in which animals are provided with compara- tive little shelter through the winter 1 seasons. There is little or no re- ductioE, Or even an increase, in the percentage; while the reduction Is quite marked in some Of the stat es In which the provisions for shel ter are generally good.
 CATTLE
 Losses of cattle from disease ex- posure and all cuases during the past yaar are very light. A mild winter and generally sufficient forage have jointly materially lowered the asaal death rate. Last year the losses were spoken of as considera ble under the average for 8 series of years; the present returns make the aggregate loss, in spite of the increas- el nlmoerS of cattle, still smaller or less than one and quarter million head, against nearly one and half million. The loss both by percentage and by actcal numbers, Is larger in the south and in the territories but in almost every state it is almost every state it is reported less than that of the previous year. By far the larger part of it is due to expo sure and partial starvation. The loss in New England and the North Atlantic stles from l } per cent in the South Atlantic and Gulf states ftom 2.l to 3.5 per cent, except in Florida where, on account of the excessive rain fall of the winter, lity reAchel the unusual fyure Jf 5.5 per cent. The stltes of the Ohio valley and the Northwest e. turn small les ; less tn m ? per r. West of the Mississippi, as usual it was greater ranging flom l.S in Kansas to Az in New Mexico. The average loss for the country was 2.4 per cent of all cattle, fig lre much lower than the average for a series of years The losses for l697-'80 was 2.9 that reported for l8o5-'87 A aginst 4 for l8S5-'S6 l and 4.2 for l8S4-'85.
 SHEEP
 The percentage of losses during the twelve month from April 1, | 1883 to April l, sls89, has been light, being only 3.S as compared ! with 4.6 for the twelve months end ed year ago. In all the states and territories except eight, the psr- of losses Is reduced, and in 8 number of cases the reduction is | large. In New Hampshire it i, re da:el from 3.5 to 2; in MassAch- uietts from to s in Delaware. l rom , Co ,; in Alabama iron; 7 t1i 9 ,; in Indiana rom 4.7 to 3.2; in from t.l to } in Idlho from 1 s to 3 and in Wycming from 5. tnI 3. The eight exceptions are Con n 9cticut where the percentage Is 1 unchanged, and Maryland Geosia, Florida, Michigan Iowa, Nevada and Arizona, where 1t ts increased by amounts ranging from one tenth !! of l per ctnt in Maryland and Ari zona u l.3 per cent in Nevada.
 HOGS
 The aggregated of loss amount 3, l05, 5l3 head, or 6.2 per cent of the whole number. This percentage ;s smaller than for recent yelr, the returns for 1888 making it 7.S: for 1887, l3.4 for 1886, l3 ant fer and 1885, 9.l.

morrow, and when the case IS finally sub

A RUNAWAY w1FE's TROUBLES.
Picked Up Penniless in st. Louis oy
the Woman She Betrayed.

Picked Up Penniless in st. Louis By
the Woman She Betrayed.
Mrs Adela Carroll Balcony, who ran
away with Daniel Spellman, the twice
married tailor, month or two ago, came
back night before last. She said that she
left Spellman ia st. Louis, where they have
been since the runaway match, although
there is a suspicion that he is in Charleston.
! Mrs. Rosa Spellman. wife Of the runaway
| husband, who was almost heart-broken
| from her faithless spOuse's treatment, de-
| termined to find him, and she did. She
raised money among her friends
and went to st. Louis, and.
after some weeks found the couples quar-
ters. Spellman had left his runaway wife
u fad work himself. and she was in desti-
tute circumstance She could not find
work and had a babe 10 support. Mrs.
| Spellman took pity on the fallen woman,
and assisted her all she could until money
from home could be sent 70 buy her ticket
back TO Savannah. She arrived here two
nights ago.
A MORNING News reporter saw her at
her parents home on Indian street, yester-
day and she related the circumstances of
the runaway. She said that she mad al
ways wanted to go to st. Louis, and after
having serious falling OUT with her
parents she went with Spellman. He en-
ployed her TO sew for him, and she knew
him and looked upon him as a good man
He asked her to run away with him, and
made her all sorts Of promises, and she
went with him to st. Louis
" ben they got there it was not so easy to
find work as they supposed, and what
money she had was soon spent. Spellman
spent all that he had. and it became neces-
sary for them to secure some kind of work
70 live. Spellman left her in week or
two, and did not show up again Her babe
was taken sick and she was forced to sell
her clothing aud beg food to eat. She
managed u get along that way for few
days, but she was breaking down. When
she saw Mrs. SDellman it was a relief to
her. She told her all about the affair and
explained her condition to her. She told
herwhen her husband left her, and where
he could be found.
Mrs. Spellman forgsve her and assisted
her to get food and to get back to Savan-
nah. She said that Spellmau and his wife
have seen each other and the breach is
mended. She said that she understood that
they will not return to Savannah to live.
She denies having been married to Spell
man, although the Charleston NelUs and
Courier announced the marriage by Justice
Bolger. Mrs. Spellman's children are here
at her home at No. Walnut street, and
some of Spellman's friends look for him
and his wife to come back to Savannah in
a short time

To Be Proud OF.

Is is pleasant to record the successful
result of well directed effort in any depart
ment of business, especially when that Sue
cessis backed by merit, and tends to promote
the general welfare. Competition in all
branches of business at this time is great
and he who by energy, integrity and
perseverance takes the lead is worthy of
commendation. In this connection DR.
Tut Of New York has achieved great
victory over long established competitors in
the Introduction of his world renowned
Liver Pills In a comparatively short time
they surpassed pills that had been before the
public over quarter Of a century. TUFTS
Liver Pills have gained popularity unpar-
qlleled. Endorsed ty the medical faculty in
Europe and America, they have become a
household word on both continents.
DR.. Tut has the gratitude Of thousands of
lnvallds who have been healed by bis medi
cine. In this age OF quackery it Is refresh
ing to know that there is at least one who
furnishes a remedy prepared on scientific
principles, and offers it to the sick consci-
entiously.
