OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, March %, 1889.

WASHINGTON, March y, 1889.
Editor Herald:
The president has so regulated the calls
of the office seekers, or the hours during
which he may be seen by them, that he
is beginning to get some little breathing
time. He is moving very slowly so much
so in fact that some are already beginning
to murmur at his space. But he says it is
better to go slow and be right than to
go fast and be wrong.
Among the prominent appointments
made by Gen. Harrison since my last let
ter are the following: Jas. S. Clarkson
of Iowa, to be first assistant postmaster
general; John w. Mason of West Virgin
ia, to be commissioner of internal reve.
nue.; S. F. Thayer of Minnesota, to be
minister to the Netherlands. Chas. E.
Mitchell of Connecticut, to be commits
sioner of patents; Nathan o. Murphy of
Arizona, to he secretary Of that territory;
w. 3. Deacon to be United States mar
shall of New Jersey; J. S. Burton to be
United States marshal for Mississippi; E.
J. Kursheedt, United States marshal for
Louisiana; B. D. Slaughter, United States
marshal for Nebraska; Whitelaw Reid,
editor Of the New York Tribune, to be
minister to France; Frederick D. Grant,
son of Gen. U. S. Grant, of New York, to
be minister of Austria; John c. New of
Indiana, to be consul general at London;

VOTE, VnLAGE.-The village of Sank
Centre expires with the municipal cleo
ton on Tuesday next, when mayor, a.
dermen and other elective officers OF the
City of Sank Centre shall be chosen. 1t
has been goodly village, prosperous,
healthy and happy, and has now an en-
viable position in the bright galaxy of
Minnesota hamlets. Its financial record
has been quite extraordinary. Amid the
crashes of great business firms, it has
stood conspicuo us Tor the solidIty of its
business houses and during the past de
cade there has not been business failure
OF serious proportions, Notwithstanding
which have put the farmers on short ra
tions. A murder has never been CON-
mitted within the corporate limits; there
have been no burglaries save few petty
exceptions hardly worth the name; no.
disastrous conhagration inv diving more
than the property in which it originated,
GIN SNSu vi lutl Soll, SSctlSSly q
tai accident, and none of the revolving
crimes which make one shudder to con-
template. Such is briefly the negative
record. And it's future history of growth
and Improvement IS really gratifying. 1t
has never experienced boom of even the
smallest type, but its progress and
growth has been substantial and deliber-
ate, and it is consequently solid from CEN
ter to suberb. Its history extending
through quarter of a century is such as
to make its residents proud of it's pres
ent and hopeful for its future. May the
City of Sank Centre :'point with pride
in an equal degree TO its growth and
prosperity at the close OF its first quarter
century of existence

HOW "TIPPECANOE' HARRISON
WAS SA WE'D.

The battle of Tippecanoe was fought
| November 5th, 1911, in Indiana, OH the
banks of the Tippecanoe river, on the
site. of the present village of Battle
| Ground, between the Americans under
General Harrison, and the Indians under
the Prophet, Tecumseh's brother.
After the famous battle until the end
of his days General Harrison, grandfath-
er of President Benjamin Harrison, was
known to be a loving sobriquet of Tip
pecanoe."
Following his brilliant achievements in
arms, now more than three-quarters of a
century ago, General Harrison, together,
with many of his troops, was stricken
with disease contracted through lack OF
proper food, and exposure to the MAS
ma of that section of Indiana, and for
time his life was dispaired Of. Sever
al of his command lay for weeks, suffer-
ing the horrors of disease upon the
banks of the Tippecanoe river, which
rises in the lake of the same name in the
northern part of the state, flows south
west 200 miles and empties into the Wa
bash nine miles above Lafayette. Gener.
Harrison's troops were threatened with
defamation, and the skill of the army sur
geons was employed in vain to combat
a more terrible and deadly enemy than
even the hostile aborigines under Tecum-
seh's brother. ....
But relief came at last. So
General HARRISON very sensibly conclud-
ed that residents of the neighborhood-
nay, the Indians themselves-knew nat
ure's specific for the disease which had
Frustrated him and many of his COM
mand, and instantly set on foot en-
quiries with view to ascertaining and
applying the remedies. They were speed
lily found and put to the test, and worked
like charm. Under their use the strick-
en- soldiers were promptly restored to
their wonted good health and vigor.
The medicines were preparations of
simple roots and herbs, based upon very
oldfashioned but effective and natural
formulate Their intrinsic merits have
been known and utilized for gene, ations
among people living in remote and malar-
ial sections of the country.
Many of these invaluable formulate
have within the last two years come into
possession of Hon. H. H, Warner, presi-
dent of the Rochester Chamber of Com
nerce, owner of the largest-proprietary
medicine mandatory in the world, and
whose Safe remedies have conferred 4

lasting boon upon mankind, being recog-
nized as standard medicines throughout
the civilized globe.
In 1887, Mr.. Warner, after careful ex-
peri1nenting and trail put upon the mar
ket Warmers Log Cabin Remedies, based
npon the formulate which has cured thous-
ands of debilitated sufferers, not only on
the banks of the "Tippecanoe, as
above related, but everywhere where
introduced
These Log Cabin preparations are de-
signed for an entirely different order of
diseases to which the Safe Remedies are
applied, among them are Warmers Log
Cabin Sarsrparilla, Warmers Log Cabin
Cough and Consumption Remedy, War
ner's Log Cabin Hops and Buchu Rene
dy. Suffering fees before them as pest
thence fees before the purifying breath o
heaven, and they are sold everywhere.

POOR PEOPLES CHANCES.

Some years ago city missionary was
crossing one of the parks in New York on
the Sabbath day and said to lad,
What are you doing here, breaking the
Lords day? You ought to be at church
and worshipping God instead of breaking
the Sabbath in this way" The poor lad
in his rags looked up at the city mission
airy and said: "Oh, Sir, it's very easy for
you to talk that way, but God knows
we poor chaps amt got no chance"
The sentiment seems to be growing in
the United States that the time has ar
rived when 1.-THE poor chaps don't have
no chance"
There is some truth in it. The poor
are not shut out from making a ivli.
hood, but the gulf between riches and
poverty continually grows more difficult
to cross. AS the country becomes dense
populate3. iaeen business competition de-
creases the chances for accommodating
wealth by ordinary b usiness methods.
But the same conditions vastly improve
the chances for great success to those
who can strike out in new paths, car
furnish something to the world that 9th
ers cannot.
True merit, in commodity or ability
will win easily and with grand results in
this country, if the masses can be in.
duced to recognize it. This recognition
can only be accomplished by what are
sometimes sneeringly alluded to as ad
vertising methods.
What marvellous success has attend
ed the thorough introduction to the
remedy for kidney disease-Warner'
CD
came to know of it's curative power by
being restored to health from what tine
doctors pronounced fatal kidney troub,
lie. He concluded the world ought to
know Of it and in the ten years since he
began its manufacture he has spent mil
lions of dollars in advertising the Safe
Cure.
His methods have been ingenious
| sometimes, perhaps, open to criticism
! but they had a purpose, which has beer
| accomplished.
But mark! he hever would have secured
a four fold return of the vast sums thus
expended if the real merit of the remedy
had not been fully proven to the millions
of people reached by his advertisements
Ten years of increasing success to War
ner's Safe Cure is due, first, to intelligent
and pleasing advertising, by which the
the people were made acquainted will
the remedy Second, to the true wortl
of the remedy, proved by actual exper
fence, showing it to be the only specific
for kidney disease, and all diseases grow

At per cent. and our city hall bonds
ought to be negotiated for about that
figure, it will only cost $500 a year to
have first-class city hall, and OF that
500 is now paid for office rental by the
village, while the rink earns much more
than enough to make up the deficiency.
A new hall would pay even better as it
would attract many entertainments
which would not come here a. all. Vote
for the bonds.
VOTE THE DoNDs.-At the election on
TUESDAY next proposition will be sub
mitted for issuing bonds to the amount
of $4,000 for the purpose OF erecting
city hall, and the proposition needs no
special encouragement from the HERALD
to have it carried by a large majority.
That the money will be judiciously ex
pended need not be feared, for it is fore
gone conclusion that we shall have a
frst-class city council. The wisdom of
erecting a creditable city hall is too evil
dent to admit of argument. 1t will en-
brace within its walls much-needed &C
commodations for number of public
conveniences. The municipal court has
been established by law, and will soon
be organized, and a court room will be
required. The village now pays 500 a
year office rent for its justices offices,
and this sum would alone pay more than
one-fourth the interest on the bonds. A
lookup has become necessity, the one
we now have being unsafe, unhealthy
and a disgrace to the town. In the new
hall there will be an excellent one with
all modern appliances for safety health
and cleanliness. The fire department de-
sircs and deserves far better and more
commodious quarters than is possible
without such a building, and with it its
efficiency will be greatly increased; and
finally, Sank Centre has not and never
has had, a public hall commensurate
with its demands. This will be provided
and will be a source of revenue to the
city of sufficient dimensions to pay all
the interest on the bonds and create a
sinking fund besides. So, at least, those
best calculated to judge confidently pre-
dict.
Furthermore the hall will be a public
Improvement of note and attractiveness
and a perpetual monument to the enter
prise and taste Of our citizens, so far as
the apprehension that the cost of The
building will exceed the amount nance
in the proposed bonds is concerned, &
number of our citizens who are anxiou:
that the city of Sank Centre become
what a little public enterprise will make
it; offer to put themselves under obliga
tions that the cost of construction vii
be within the proposed limit.
By al means give Us the city hall b,

THE bill has passed which covers into
the state treasury all the fees collected
by the state Inspector of oils, and allow
ing him in lien thereof a salary of So 400.
1t is believed that the inspection will be
less rigid and complete under the new
law. The inspector OF oils, Sam H. Mich
OILS can but feel disappointed as the fees
were reported to amount to fifteen or
twenty thousand dollars a year. The
HERALD believes this so-called reform is
too radical to be effective, and believes
that reduction of fifty per cent. in fees
would have served the purpose better.

which the Globe of Saturday last makes
the following allusion:
Senator keller's desk was missing yes
terday, and Senators Compton, Wood
and Buchanan were appointed to instl
tute search. The desk was found ap
propriated by Representative Ives in the
house. Senator Compton made the fol
lowing report:
There was a Senator Keller,
Who at intervals entered the cellar,
He lost iii his capers,
His desk, books and papers,
That unterrified Senator Keller.
In the house in the hands of a teller,
OF the very same politics as Keller,
The lost desk was found,
Books and papers all sound,
Very much to the relief of our Keller.

The A. G. Field Minstrel Co. will be at

Republican says: ''Al. G. Fields minstrels
were well received at the Opera House
last evening. They gave a splendid per-
formance of the kind, and the music, es-
pecially the singing, was superior to that
usually heard with travelling shows. The
features presented were all of an enjoyable
kind, and they were rapturously applaud
ed, encores being numerous. The military
encampment first part was new and novel,
and was one of the most pleasing features
of the entertainment. The performance
ended with an afterpiece that took the
house by storm and gave better satisfaction
than any minstrel entertainment ever be-
fore given here Fields minstrels should
receive a rousing welcome wherever they
appear"

Fred Warde 1.-THE Mounte-
bank

Come one, come all, +" walk forward" A."
''Be in time, are the lively words of Fan
faronade, accompanied by bang on the
drum that will be remembered by every
one that attended the performance of
Thursday night The resources of Fred
Warde are certainly great, and the gap be-
tween his Othello, Virginius, Richard the
Third and the character of Belphegor the
mountebank, very wide, yet how full of
nature is this last assumptionl The tears
Were plentifully flowing from the eyes of
the audience at the poor mans griefs that
came from his strong affection for his wife
and child, removed from him.
Mr.. Warde's depletion of these is master
ly, and we cannot think of another
tragedian of this day with the genius,
physique and stuff in him to render them
with equal effort.
The Fred Warde company of this season
is an exceptionally strong one. For this
alone the public is much indebted to Mr..
Warde 1t is an attribute of genius and
conscious strength in a leader, to surround
himself with able supporters on the stage
as the great Napoleon did with his great
generals. Second class stars, so called,
are afraid to do this They are Jealous of
praise bestowed on any member of their
company, but here is Mr.. Warde, surround
ed by ladies and gentlemen of "a high de
gree of merit Only think of, amongst
others, of two ladies of the family of great
actors named Vandenhof, who in their
parts had family reputation well sustained.
1t was quite treat. Then Mr. Warde,
quite able by himself to make name,
without having itsnientioned that he is
son of Mr.. |. S. Clark, the comedian par
excellence of Major Wellington de Boots
and DR.. Pangloss fame.
This is the same young gentleman who
played Gravedigger in Hamlet, when his
brother, Creston Clark, gave that perform
ance in Butler year ago. 1t was record
ed at the time what a good gravedigger
Mr.. Wilfrid Clarke made. He plays Fan
iaronade in the Mountebank. 1t is part
to be and will be remembered. 1t was
original, fresh and highly amusing Whilst
writing this this the writer takes another
roar of laughter, and no wonder People
must see it too understand
All the parts were well sustained and
''The Mountebank" is a great performances
The w. G.. t. u. at the Fair.
The ladies of the Butler W. c. T. U.
