1T WAS LONG ENOUGH.

Colonel-Well, what's the matter now?
Private-I've got liver trouble and dyspep-
STA, and ought to get leave for thirty days.
Colonel-I'l give you ten, and if you take
joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla that will be long
enough.
Fred H. Blocker, of 10 Montgomery street,
San Francisco, writes: 1 have spent many a
dollar for medicines, but the only thing that
ever stopped my liver trouble and dyspepsia,
was Joys Vegetable sarsaparilla.
Gustav Solomon, of 223 Valencia street, San

IT is improbable that Germany has
made any such offer, as is reported from
Berlin-that the United States, in order
to secure the independence of Samoa, shall
buy out the German plantations on the
islands and purchase other German inter-
ests. Germany never sells territory, much
less the commercial privilege attach
ing to territory. The idea that the Ger
man Emperor has authorized any such Of
fer as is reported Is preposterous, and, in
deed, it would be little short OF insulting.
1t would be equivalent to saying to the
United States that our demand for the
recognition of the rights of the Samoans to
self-government shall not be conceded
except we buy the concession. That is moi
the American way of doing things.

spends much time in polishing it up.
He heretofore has done all his work on

STRANGE DISAPPEARANCE.
Of Popular Painter at Chat
tanOOga, Tenn.

Chattanooga. Tenn, September 23.-Gen
Jacobs, painter. has mysteriously disap
peased, and b.s wife and friends are exceed.
ingly anxious concerning his whereabouts
and safety. Four years ago Jacobs, who
was one OF the most popular young men in
this section, married the daughter of War.
rem Hooper, in his lifetime a leading citi.
zen OF Chattanooga. Jacobs was moder-
atty well of, and being of good steady hab-
its, was we'll respected by all who new him.
A few months ago he took a child naned
Josie Crow from the Orphans Home,
since which time the child
has been abducted three times
and each time recovered. This seemed to
prey on his mind, aud he could be found
wandering about the city al all hours of
the night He quit work and became
shiftless, doing little ia his business and
having a mania for getting on the police
force. During the reunion there last week
he was appointed special policeman, and
expected to remain on the regular force
He was dismissed with the others on Sat-
urday, however, since which he has not
been seen. He, was last at home Saturday
noon, but was seen going toward
the house of Mrs. Grow, the mother
of his adopted child, late Satur-
day night. This is the last trace that can
be found of him. The Crow family give
conflicting statements concerning the last
time that they saw him, and the police
think that he has been made away with,
and that his disappearance is but part of
the mystery which has hung over the
child. Jodie Crow, and her repeated abduc-
ton from his home. A numoer of his
friends refuse to accept this theory, and
believe that he has wandered away while
insane. His wife is almost frantic with
grief. and fears are entertained of her san
ity unless the mystery is cleared up.

be here, and it is said that even Martin

lieves Powderly fell into Jay Gould's
hands and lost the Southwest strike for the
knights.
