Uncle Sans Dishonesty,

For seventeen years after the es-
tablishment of the money-order sys-
tenn in this country the funds Sc
cured through unpaid money orders
were stored up and boarded, just as
though the United States Govern
ment had made good speculation.
No attempts whatever were inaugur-
ated to ascertain the real owners of
this money which had been trusted
to Uncle SANS care, but the sum
went on accumulating until it had
reached the enormous figure of about
81, 100000. Then Congress took
hold. The Legislative branch of the
government decided that the money
thus held was illegally held, and
that no pains should be spared to
ascertain to whom it belonged, and
a clause was attached to one of the
bills appropriating money for the
support of the postofiice department
authorizing the employment of
number of clerks, whose duty it
should be 10 ascertain the rightful
owners of this money order fund,
and every effort made to restore it.
Congress also provides that hereafter
whenever an "advice" in relation to
an order, which should remain un-
paid in the hands of postmaster a
a certain number of days without
the money having been claimed,
was received, it should be the duty
of thepostmaster to notify the payee.
If this failed to secure the the pay
ment of the money to the rightful
party, the sender was to be notified
and steps were devised by which he
might secure the money which had
not been paid to the person to whom
he desired il should 90.

ELECTIONS IuIs YEAR

Only eleven states elect state off,
GERS this year. The first is Ken
lucky which will hold a general
election for state treasurer on Au.
gust s. Elections in ten other states
will take place November 5.
On that day Iowa will elect gov.
ernor and lieutenant governor.
Maryland will elect comptroller
and attorney general.
Massachusetts will elect governor
and state officers.
Mississippi will elect governor and
state officers.
Nebraska will elect a supreme
court judge and two regents.
New Jersey will elect governor
and state officers.
New York will elect state officers,
except governor and lieutenant gov
ernor.
Ohio will elect governor and state
officers.
Pennsylvania will elect state treas
urer.
Virginia will elect governor and
state officers.
Political interest this year accord
ingly IL centered in the elections of
the newly admitted states, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Washing
ton and Montana, which are now
framing their constitutions and will
eject full state governments and leg
islatures, which will choose eight
United State senators. Each new
state will also elect representative
in congress, except South Dakota,
which will elect two.
The terms of the United States
senators expire next year, so the
election of members of the legisla-
ture is of interest as bearing on ma
tional politics only in cases where
members of the Legislature chosen
this year hold Office for two years.

The bill compelling railroads TO
equip freight cars with automatic
couplers passed by the Now York
legislature last winter has been APP
proved by the governor. 1t provides
that after Nov. |, 1892, all steam rail
roads shall equip all Of their own
engines and freight cars with "such
automatic self-couplers," and that il
shall be unlawful after that date to
run any OF their own cars not thus

ance Is $500 for each oflense.

4 Smoking Tree.

\ curious smoking pine tree on
the Vaughan estate in Hallowell,
Me-, is again the topic of discussion
in that city. a gentleman the other
day said that the last time he saw
ii smoke was on June 9th. The
vapor comes from the extreme top
or apex and it extends several feet
into the air, waving to and fro.
The column is about the diameter of
a mans arm, and sometimes di-
vides periodically and is really a
phenomenon.

MAD STONES AGAIN.

We have several times mentioned
mad stones i'm this paper. Perhaps
the history of one owned in Missis-
sippi is as well attested as that of
any other. 1t was, and doubtless
still is, owned in the family of II
Col. Milan of Waterford, Miss. It's
size il about that of an average hen
egg and it was obtained from China
about eighty years ago, or in the
year 1910. Some seventy years ago
IL was accidentally broken into three
pieces, which We're skilfully fasten-
ed together by a wire. Twenty
years ago its owner then declared
that it had been applied over one
thousand times in cases bitten by
venomous snakes or mad dogs. He
himself had then applied it over
two hundred and fifty times. In all
the cases of its application he de-
clared it had never failed TO operate
ana tne cases were cured excepting
two wherein by reason of the loca-
ton of the wounds they could not
be successfully reached, and this was
attested in very many Cf the cases
by other witnesses. When applied
it adheres as if by suction and usual
ly remains on ten or twelve hours.
1t was then soaked in warm
water some thirty or more hours
when it became cleauscd aud again
ready for use. Since then it has
heen used in many Gases with the
same success. Twenty years ago
there was considerable said about
this stone in the papers.

shouted and danced in the delirium
of their pleasure. The reason was
that they were listening to the
favorite and Oldest tune of their peo-
pie. Professor Ensel then stated
that the tune had been taken to
Europe from Africa in the eleventh
century by the Crusaders, and had
lived separately in both countries for
over 700 years. This is certainly

Hon. II. III. Warner, then, is q
leading and honored resident Of
Rochester, not only, but q prominent
and influential citizen of the United
States. On several occasions chosen
by his party as National delegate to
nominate President Of the Republic,
he has been mem Der of the Repub-
can State Committee and of its IKE
cutive Committee. He is q mem Der
OF the American Institution for the
Advancement OF Science; President
OF the Rochester Chamber of Com
merce; q successful and upright busi-
ness man. He has given away for
tunes in charities. The celebrated
and costly Warner Observatory OF
Rochester was conceived, endowed,
and 10 maintained by him. His
munitcent prizes for the discovery of
comets has been at once the wonder
and delight Of the scientific world.
The yellow fever scourage in the
South, the Ohio foods, the FIRE dis
asters Of Rochester and other cities
awakened his profoundest sympathies
and in each instance his check for
from $500 to 81, 900 swelled the several
relief funds. Where other wealthy
men give tens and hundreds, he gives
hundreds and thousands.
Ills charities are as ready and
a. his enterprises and
public spirit are boundless.
The world has need OF more such
men.
An incident led him into the manu-
facture OF medicine. Seized some
twelve years ago with what the sblest
physicians termed fatal kidney dis |
ease, he WAS mirsculously restored 10 |
health by. what is now known AZ
Warmers Safe Cure. At once he re- |
solved TO make known the merits OF so |
potent remedy, and the consequence
is that to-day he has immense labora-
