In every community there are living Wit
nesses to testify that in naming our medicine
Piso's Cure for Consumption, we have not
claimed more than it can do. Its standing In
the market also proves its merit. We have
not published sensational notices; our adver-
tisements have been mere signs to indicate the
existence of Piso's Cure for Consumption. In
stead of endeavoring to excite fear our pur-
pose has been to encourage hope.
Yet PiSo's Cure for Consumption stands to-
day at the head of all medicines of its class.
requiring for its manufacture factory full of
skilled workers and improved machinery,
whereas about twenty years ago all the work
was done in one little room by one man.

A BANKRUPTCY LAW.
A National Convention of Merchants
Adopts Comprehensive Measure.

n NdCiOudI convention OF Merchants
Adopts Comprehensive Measure.
The most important business of the ma
tional convention of the representatives of the
commercial bodies of the United States
which has been in session at Minneapolis, was
the adoption of draft of National Bank
ruptcy law for presentation to Congress
The measure is very plain and full and
confers jurisdiction in bankruptcy upon the
District Courts of the United States 1t pro-
yides for the appointment of referee in or
der that the providential delays of the law
may be obviated and the business of tho
courts expeditiously transacted. The Judge
or referee is to have salary of $4,000, and
permission to undertake certain kinds of
private practice. He is to be nominated by
the creditors. and the bankrupt is to be ex-
amined by the o. S. District ATTORNEY at the
first meeting of the creditors and again prior
to his discharge
Persons guilty of commercial dishonor. or
who have defaulted upon commercial paper
or open accounts for sixty days, may be forced
into bankruptcy. Fraudulent pretenses are
forbidden, valid liens created and good faith
protected The bankrupt will be discharged
irrespective of the dividend his estate pays
If he can show faultless record and clean
hands.
1t is an important and far-reaching meas
uro.

A Fly the Death of Man and Horse.

Moses Elvich, junk dealer, had a
team of horses, and he thought great
deal of them. He had been engaged to
haul load of furniture for man who
was moving from Brookville to Punxsu-
tawney, Penn. 1t was hilly road and
the horses needed careful watching.
While going down steep hill Moses saw
large fly on the neck of one of the
horses. 1t annoyed the man as much as
it did the horse, and the little insect
caused the death of the animal and also
of Moses. Elvich, in leaning forward to
brush away the fly, fell to the ground and
broke his neck. The horses took fright,
and, running into the fence, the one on
which the fly was sitting broke its leg
and had to be killed. Elvich was picked
up by his fatheri rin-law, who was follow
ing with another load of household goods.

Both the Duelists Killed.

Malad City in Idaho has been thrown into
excitement by fatal duel which occurred
between two young men, Abraham
Likes and Jude Springs of Clark's Flat
They came there last spring and went
into partnership ranching. In a short time
both fell ia love with Jennie Trauts. Unable
to settle the matter amicably, they resorted
to the brookside with six-shooters, where
each principal took position. AT the word
both fired, Springs bullet striking Likes in
the left arm and Likes firing wide of the
mark.
Likes demanded another shot This time
both men fell to the ground Spring was
shot through the head and instant
ly killed Likes received a bullet in
the left breast, just above the heart
and died in five minutes. Both were buried
in the ravine by the ranchers Miss Trauts
is nearly crazed by the terrible event, and it
is feared she will end her own life

Killing the Wrong Man.

Near Clinton Miss, Constable Robert
Whitaker and two other men tried to arrest
Arthur Marley (colored), wanted in Yazoo
Couutyon charge of assassinating j. n. New
backer. Marley and companion, one York,
ran, though armed with Winchester rifles
Marley fired at his pursuers and one ball
struck Whitaker in the leg and another in
the arm. York was shot in the back by the
officers and killed. Marley went to Jackson
and surrendered to Sheriff Thomas. He says
that he thought the mob from Yazoo County
was after him, and fired at random without
intending to hit any one.

CRIMES And CASUALTIES.
Happenings in Different Sec
tiOns of the Country.
Subterranean Fires in a Pennsyl-
vania Coal Mine.

What threatens to be one of the most de-
structive mine fires that ever occurred in
Scranton, Penn, is now raging in No. 2
colliery of the Delaware and Hudson Canal
Company at Olyphant, where several acres
of anthracite coal are ablaze nearly two hum
dred feet below the surface.
A few weeks ago there was an extensive
cave in of the roof at that mine followed by
tremendous explosion of fire damp, and
several workmen were severely burned. 1t
is thought that the fire was then communi-
Gated to the gas blowers which rush steadily
through the coal assures and that the anthra-
cite was ignited in that way.
The caving in has been going on steadily
since that date. until the caved in area is
nearly twenty-five acres. 1t was not until
recently that the full extent of the fire be-
came known, and gangs of expert miners
were at once detailed to fight the flames
1t will be necessary to cut through 1875
feet of coal before the streams of water that
are to be carried through pipes can be
directed effectively against the fire, and
forces of workmen are employed night and
day to make the necessary tunnel.
This is dangerous work, owing to the rap
idly accommodating gases that may come in
contact with the flames at any moment and
result in disastrous explosion.

She Kept Her Secret.

Celia Jockner, German girl nineteen years
old. died at Bellevue Hospital, New York
city, from dose of Paris green which she
took with suicidal intent
The girl lived with her father wild
over. in East Fourteenth street. Celia
was very industrious and went to work
early every morning in Williamsburg,
where she was employed as q
book binder. In the evening" however, SO
the women folk in the house have it, Celia re-
ceived many callers and young men came
there and went away at all hours of the
night.
1t was early in the morning when Celia's
father, Joseph Jockner, was awakened by the
groans of his daughter. DR.. Speiger was
called in and then an ambulance was sum
moned and the patient was removed to
Bellevue Hospital. A stomach pump was ap-
piled and large quantities of the poison were
elected. The fact that she had taken so
much of the drug gave some chances for saw
ing her life, but after apparently growing
stronger she sank and died.
DR.. Williams had charge of the patient in
Bellevue Hospital. When she appeared to re-
gain strength hs asked her why she had
teken poison. To this she simply replied
That is my secret and it will die with me-"

Of all the Republicans in both Houses
will vote against any and every silver
bill while the Democrats in both
Houses will be found almost to man
voting for any measure favorable to
silver that may be presented. But
before any bill can be voted for it
must first go to the Committee on
Finance in the Senate and to the
Committee on Coinage, Weights and
Measures in the House. The Senate
Committee is already appointed, with
John Sherman at it's head, and is
known to be gold bug by two major
ity. The great majority of Republi-
cans in the House being gcll bug
also, and that party having the Or
ganization, the House Committee is
certain to fiddle the same tune. We
