StanhOpe's lingo Speech.

StdnHOpeS JlngO SpetcH.
Mr.. Howard Stanhope, Secretary of
War, addressed meeting of his
constituents in the Horncastle Divi-
sion of the Lincolnshire Monday evening.
In the course of his remarks Mr.. Stan
hope said thunder-cloud was hanging
over Europe and that sooner or later
probably sooner-it would burst, bring
ing the fercest and most horrible war
ever known. 1t was impossible, he de-
clared, to view the preparations for war
now being made throughout Europe with
out feeling that war was approaching.
He hoped, however, that the wisdom of
Englaud's statesmen would prevent that
nation from becoming involved. Ghe
Pail Mall Gazette, commenting upon the
speech, denounces the folly of such ut
terances rs those of Mr.. Stanhope, and
says they are calculated to do much mis-
chief. 1t declares that Mr.. Stanhope's
needless rhetoric is quite uniustified, and
expresses the hope that Lord Salisbury
will take prompt measures to correct the
damage done oy the blunder of the Mln-
lister of War.

HENRY GEoR GE's recent western trip
was by far the most successful he has yet
made in this country. The governor and
leading state officials of Iowa were among
the auditors at Des MoineS, and he ad-
dressed beth houses of the Minnesota
legislature in the hall of the assembly at
st. Paul as we'll as two other large audi
ances at the twin cities. Everywhere he
fouRd the liveliest interest in the single
tax question, which hat certainly come
under active discussisn in the west. Mr..
George further relates that Charles A.
PilIscury of the great flour milling in
dustry took him over that vast establish
ment, aud he told Mr.. Pillsbury that,
whereas under the present system his
tax amounted to s4,74O year on an as
sessment of S22O,75O on the buildings
and machinery and S14, $50 on the land
beneath, under the George system the
tax would be only $500 THAT is 4 per
cent on the land value alone). There
upon Mr.. Pillsbury very naturally ex-
pressed himself as favorably disposed
toward the single tax. Now if Mr..
George can show that the tax deficit in
this case of over $4,000 could be collected
by the state from laud held unim proved
by spectators, or that the relief afforded
to this industry would not be visited up
on other industry as an additional burden
we fancy his system would meet with
little opposition.

gifted master died. A like case occurred
near Chicago the other day. Driven to
despair by hunger and cold, an italian

No help came and the blizzard that was
blowing increased in vioIeAce every
moment. Strange figures foated before
the musicians eyes and the air about
him became filled with strange sounds
Mechanically he took up his violin, tun-
ing it in a dazed way and bending his

strains therefrom. When they picked
up his dead body the next morning, theirs
was smile upon his face, but~the violin
lay in half dozen pieces half buried in

Is the apartment to which the unhappy sufferer
from infammatory rheumatism is confined II,
ere the crisis of pain is reached, that fine pre-
ventive, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, is used by
persons of a rheumatic tendency, much unneces-
sary suffering is avoided. Nervines, anodynes
and sedatives, while having none but a specific
effect, are vet very desirable at times Yet can
they produce no lasting effect upon rheumatism,
because they have no power TO eliminate from
the blood the rheumatic virus. Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters does this. and checks at the outset
disease which, il allowed to gain Roadway. it is
next to impossible TO dislodge or TO do more than
relieve. Rheumatism, it should be remembered
is disease with fatal tendency from its prone
ness to attack the heart. A resort to the Bitters
should. therefore, be prompt. Dyspepsia kid
ney complaint, malaria and nervousness are re-
Geved by it.
the deadlock still seems to be the bill
of fare in West Virginia. The joint as
sembly took two ballots yesterday with
the same result.

Gov. WATERMAN, of California, who was
elected acknowledgement as republi-
can, and who succe eded to the governor
ship upon the death of Gov. Bartlett, be-
gins to show signs of uheasiness at the
reckless extravaganza of the democratic
Legislature. Boss Buckley has run the
payroll of the attaches of the Legislative
department. up to about $4,000, and Mr.
Waterman may refuse to allow the CON
tiugent fund to be drawn upon for such
large amounts. The democrats are hold
ing his appointments until the drafts are
signed, and Waterman has it in his power
TO completely bottle these raiders, if he
has the courage to do what is manifestly
his duty under the circumstances.
