The London PfH W"V Gu-.ffc gives
prominence To All inter, low with Rev. Dr.
HOwley, a Catholic New wloundlander. now
in London, who warns England OF the
danger OF that colony seeking annexation
to the United States as the only way of OH
tanning redress against French interference
with the fisheries. He says that the United
States feed Newfoundland and do most of
its trade, and therefore the natural ten
deucS is to annexation, Besides the colony
is profoundly impressed with the resolute
action of the United States in dealing with
Germany in the Samoa affair, Cuntrasted
with Engiand'S reluctant activity to sup
port Newfoundland against France. "m
fact he says, John Bull allows his nose
Ia be tweaked with impunity, hut Brother
Jonathan would not allow France to pluck
his beard
The IIU MoH gazette thinks the situa-
hon very serious, aud notes the absurdity
OF Salisbury moving heaven aud earth to
prevent the possible danger OF losing Ire

save the really much more important
island of Newfoundland

letter:
"My Dcar Eiifor.-For several years past
have been the recipient of several pamphlets
Issued nom time to time by Ncssrs. II. II. War
ncr a Co., of Rochester, y. y, which, In addi-
ton 10 containing an extensive treatise upon
kidney disease, its origin, usual symptoms and
growth, also includes numerous testimonials
from parties whose facsimile signatures are at
taChod thereto, attosting the statement that
they have been individually relieved by the use
Of Warmers safe Cure, which is prepared by the
above hrm, for the use of persons so am iCted .
Now. Mr.. Editor, ! would like to know If the
statements made by those parties who testify to
the great good which Warmers Safe Cure has
done them. can be relied upon. They seem
honest enough from the way they read. " War

Each pamphlet which / have received con-
tains hundred or more testimonials, and the
same one does not appear in more than one
pamphlet, so IL seems that there are good
many who are being helped by that remedy.
IL strikes mo that there j. "a good deal of sense
In the claim which those parties make that the
doctors are treating toomany persons for wrong
causes, and that oftcntimCs, people are treated
for consumption, brain, heart and nervous dis
orders when they are suffering from kidney
sdisCaso which should be treated, us they say,
by the use OF Warmers safe Cure and rs re-
suit, when disease Is first removed therolrom,
that which is supposed to be disease in the
lungs or other organs, will disappear, Many OF
my neiehbors tell me that thi, remedy has done
much good for them-moro good than their doc
tors. II kidney disease is the real cause OF so
many other diseases why, Mr.. Editor, don't the
people who are afflicted with sickness, insist
upon a more careful inquiry being made, in
order that the true cause may be asCortHincd,

CHEAP WATER GAS.
II II said IL Can be Made for Eight Cents
Per 900 cubic Feet.

Per 900 Cubic Rect.
A Chicago paper says A London syndi-
cate Is In Chicago, or at least some of its
representatives are. They know how to
make cheap gas over In the old world.
They can mako 1t at eight cents per 200
cubic feet in the holder. II surprises them
that Americans keep Oh paying from 81 TO
81 for what they might have at 25 cents.
The syndicate, therefore, proposes to give
the American people chance to try cheap
gas. The syndicate proposes to organize
a company, with capital of $50, 0o0, 90, and
~ put In plants for making cheap gas all
over tho United States, following the line
of least resistance and largest profits,
If the local capitalists accept tho proposition
made by the syndicate, the work will begin
mt once, rs plenty of capital is sold to be
behind the Englishmen. Their names are
withheld for the present, but they are well
known to Chicago bankers and the quality
and quantity of their financial backing are
said to be above suspicion. The syndicate
will strive TO put the plant into Eastern
cities, big and small, and into West
ern towns and cities wherever the
consumption of gas is large enough to
warrant the effort. Local capital, 1t Is un-
derstood, will not be dobarred from chances
to profit by the new process The idea
Is TO organize local companies in the differ
ent cities which will pay certain royalty
10 the parent concern, and also at the start
receive financial aid from il. Thus the
s20,00O,0o0 company, which the English
syndicate now hopes to organize, is in
tended to be not exactly gas trust nor a
gas company but promoter of gas manu-
featuring, and its dividends will accrue
partly from its sale Of its right " to make
water gas, and partly from the returns
made ON its advances 10 gas companies
operating under its system.

DUFFYS PURE MALT WHISKEY.
POISONED WATER.

one OF the leading surgeons in the Army,
made the following characteristic remark {:
Water kills more soldiers than bullets" His
meaning was, that soldiers who drank impure
water, died by disease in greater number than
those killed by bullets. The surgeon was right.
Impure water, especially at this season, Is a
terrible cause OF sickness and DEATH But the
public say what shall we do? There is but one
sensible thing to do, and that Is to purify the
water by mixing 1t with something that de-
stroys all poison or disease breeding germs, and
nothing does this like pure whiskey. But II
may be asked where can | obtain pure whis-
key? Professor Henry A. Mott, says, " the pu.
rity of Dufy'S Pure Malt Whiskey is absolute,
and should commend IL to the highest public
myor. There are hundreds of tamili les that are
drinking water constantly, and are kept in per-

THE JohnstOwn people have said very
little about the distribution of the relief
fund, and commendable pride and deli
cacy restrains them from suggestions,
comment or criticism but the Johnstown
Democrat prints letter from citizen
regretting the delay in distributing the
money and expressing 4 wish that all of
the lunketing subcommittee to discover
the most pressing needs of the sufferers had
acted upon their discoveries as promptly as
the mayor OF ~. Louis, who gave out his
city's fund on every hand to the sufferers. II
ought to be quite plain that q general fol-
lowing of Mayor Noonau'S plan would
have resulted in very unequal distribu-
ton, but il is pity that the more orderly
methods that have been adopted should in

ton as the custodians of charity, to go and
stare at misery and do nothing for it. they

used as experience and occasion dictate.

the whole business, but il enterprise in

TO depend upon English capitalists for sup

The Ohio Ballot box FOrUer,S Story

r. G. Wood, the Ohio ballot-box forger was
seen in Jail at Columbus Monday by a reporter
who says: Woods general manner and tone
conveyed the idea of two things. The forged
sheet was not intended to injure Mr. Campbell
or any one else. About the time the names on
it were written Wood was trying to get his bal
lot-box contract through the New Jersey gem
eral assembly, and the forged sheet was made
to show that good men were at the back of the
ballot-box company. Unless the reporter mis-
interpreted Woods meaning, that sheet is still
in the possession of some one in New JERSEY
VINO kept 1t after the ballot-box bill was passed
Then, for some reason-probably the same as
that for which the other was made-a second
sheet and list of names was made out
IL Wood is to be belived he never to. X this
second sheet to Gov. Foraker, but a ,ertaIn
ex-city officer, who is very close to Go, For
aker, and who is also a stock holder in 4 g bal
lot-box company, with every opportuni,r to do
30, secured possession of the sheet and oarried
1t to the governor. Whether be krA W that
the names were not genuine and for wis.,. pur-
pose they were put there. is not knc In lust
now. but this is the very broad impre Aion to
be gained from Woods conversation on SIC sub
iect
