That Little Tickling.

You have been cautioned many times to
do something to get lid of that little
tickling in your throat, which makes you
cough once in while and keeps you con-
stantly clearing your throat. You reply,
80, that's nothing" 1T will get well of
ITSELF" etc, will not cure it, nor will the
disease stand still; it will grow worse or
better. This trouble arises from catarrh.
and, as catarth is constitutional disease,
the ordinary cough medicines all fail to hit
the spot What you need is a constitutional
remedy like Hoods Sarsaparilia. Many
people who have taken this medicine for
scrofula, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, and
other troubles, have been surprised that it
should cure this troublesome cough. But
to know the actual cause of the cough is to
solve the mystery.
Probably nearly all cases of consump-
ton could be traced back to the neglect Of
some such slight affection as this. The
best authority on consumption. says that
this disease can be controlled in its early
stages. and the effect of Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla in purifying the blood building up
the general health, and expelling the scrof-
ula faint which is the cause Of catarrh and
consumption, has restored to perfect health
mnny persons on whom this dreadful dis
ease seemed to have firm hold

When travelling in the forests of Guiana
and Paraguay, it is not uncommon to meet
with a bird whose music greatly resembles
that Of IN AngeIus bell when heard from a
distance. The Spaniards call this singular
bird bellringer, though it may still be
more appropriately designated as the An
gelus bird. for, like the AngeIus bell, it Is
heard three times a day, morning, noon
and night. It's song. which defes all de-
scription. consists of sounds like the strokes
of bell, succeeding one another every two
or three minutes. so clearly and in such
resonant manner, that the listener,
if stranger, imagines himself to be
near chapel or convent. But it turns out
,hat the forest is the chapel, and the bell
bird
TIE beauty of the Angelus bird is equal
to his talent: he is as large as jay, and
as white as snow, besides being graceful in
form and swift in motion. But the most
curious ornament of the Angelus bird is
tuft of black. arched feathers on its beauti-
full head: it is of conical shape and about
four inches in length Guardian Angel.

MORMONS' BITTER HATRED.
Their Priests ControIl the People In All
Matters.

SALT LAKE CITY. In the Mormon in
vestigation on Thursday. Mrs. B. Smith,
niece by marriage to Joseph Smith was
called as a witness. She had oficiated in
the endowment house. but knew of no oath
taken to avenge the blood of Joseph and
Hiram Smith. George @. Cannon. the
noted Mormon leader, was called by the
prosecution and identified the circular
sent out by himself and John Taylor in IS
calling on saints in this and adjoining
territories to contribute to fund for the
defense of MormonS charged with viOlat-
ing the Edmunds law.
Mrs Gilmore went through the endow-
ment house seventeen years ago with u
number of others. all Of whom were called
upon to swear to avenge the blood of JO-
seph and Hiram Smith upon the American
nation and teach it to their children and
children children to the fourth genera
ton. Any one who violated the oath or
revealed the secrets would be killed.
Henry W Lawrence president of the
chamber of commerce. testified that he be-
came a Mormon in childhood: he came to
Utah thirty-nIne wears ago. Otficiated in
the endowment house several years and was
communicated in 1869 for questioning
the right of priesthood to dictate IN tenn
poral affairs Persons going through the
endowment house always took the oath of
vengeance There was another covenant
to obey the priesthood in all things. and a
penalty of death was attached to the viola
ton Of the covenant or revealing secrets of
the house. In the time of Brigham Young
the priesthood was supreme and Young
controlled the people IN all things. The
church was in opposition to the govern
ment and the feelings of the people were
being aienated more and more. The wit
ness and some others started magazine
to disseminate more advanced ideas
and they We're tried before a
council of priests, with George
Cannon as prosecutor and eX-conrmuni-
Gated. 1t was claimed for the church that
it was the literal kingdom of God, juris-
dicjion extending to all things. 1t was
expected to control the whole earth in time
and then Christ was to come in person and
take charge. When the witness was ex-
communicated he was doing a business of
SIS. 900 or $4,000 a year. but after the
trial business fell off rapidly and he was
socially ostracised. Cross-examiuation
failed to shake Lawrence's testimony.
Penrose has not yet fled statement and
the court ruled this afternoon that the in
yestigation be closed until Penrose purges
himself of contempt.

AIDED By A. WOMAN.
The Hurley Bank Robbers in the Custody
of Officers.

HURLEY, Wis, Nov. 25.-Lou Thayer.
the woman connected with the robbery of
the Iron Exchange bank of S39. 600 on
September 20, has given the story of the
crime to the detectives. As result of her
inability to keep a secret. Phelps Perrin
bookkeeper at the bank, and Z. w. Ba-
ker, saloon keeper at lronwoOd, Mich.
are under arrest on charge of having
committed the robbery The Thayer
woman Is also in custody.
Perrin was found upon the streets of
Hurley and when served with the war
rant vas greatly surprised aad stoutlv
protested his innocence. He stated that
the express company would be made to
pay dearly for his arrest Baker and
the woman were arrested at IrOnwood and
in the possession Of Baker was found the
sum of sI,700 in cash. The fact that
Baker had recently become the owner of a
fine saloon in Ironwood. when he was
known to have been without money a short
time ago, viii tell against him. Perrin
was carefully guarded by the officers until
evening. and was then taken TO the county
jail at Ashland. while Baker and the
woman were taken to tbs Gogebic county
jail at Bessemer, having been arrested
across the line.
There Is a great deal of comment In re-
gard to the case. and many are 10th to
b.Ieye that Perrin Is guilty He has been
trusted employe of the bank for two or
three years. and has often been left In
entire charge of 1t for weeks at a time dur

confidence.

The problem that presents itself to the
Brazilian people is a most curious one, and
in the solution of it they must have rs
nation, the warmest sympathy of the peo-
9. of the United States. The circum-
stances surrounding the establishment of
the new republic are calculated to arouse
our distrust. There was. SO far us we can
know. no decent excuse for the violent over
throw of the monarchy. Not only was the
monarr,Iya very liberal one, but the chief
of the reiguiug family WAS SO sincerely
anxious that his people should have their
own way, when thcy should have made up
their minds rs to the way they wished to
go that he had practically offered to give
up the throne which he had occupied So
long and with such good seuse and good
faith. Now that he hats given it up and
sailed for Lisbon. the country is embarked
upon republican career. That is to say,
in some form, on some basis of representa-
ton, a Government popular in form and
without the element of heredity power or
office will prevail. Though the heredity
feature of the recent past has been hardly
more than form, it was supposed to bc a
cheek upon rapid and radical change
That check is now removed. The new
government has taken the reins in a man
ner that makes all conditions and re-
straiuts extremely difficult if not impos
sible to enforce, and the future is in the last
degree uncertain. But though a popular
method Of some sort is now the sure out
come of this sudden change. there Is one
popularity of the Brazilian situation that
will battle all calculation, and that is the
fact that there is in Brazil no 'people" in
the sense that Americans use that term.
There is population of from 100000
or l.. .O00 900 scattered for the most part
thinly over portions of territory So vast
that there are areas rs large as one of our
larger States where civilized man has
never gone even as an explorer. In this
population some - to 80 per cent are
freemen. slaves emancipated either by the
slow process of flight from slavery under
legal conditions that made recovery by the
masters impractieable, or by the law of
manumission enacted last year. OF the
remaining 5000. 900 or 100000 of peo-
pie. it is estimated that more than 100000,
or one in forty have enjoyed the right of
suffrage OF those without votes u very
large proportion is made up of iHiterate
persons whose exercise of the suffrage
would be to the last degree uncertain and
might be dangerous. Under the empire
an attempt has been made to extend the
suffrage in what appears to have been a
very rational fashion It is fair to sup
pose that it would have been successful
had stable Government been maintained.
Speculation as 70 that point is, however,
idle now. The proposition in the form
that it was made falls with the empire.
The Provisional Government may renew
it or may extend it, but the risk is very
great that any new system that may be
undertaken will fall through the inability
to maintain order while ii is being tried.

POwDERLY's BIG SCHEME.
The United Labor Vote and Farmers Al.
lance viii Control the Chair

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 25.-In an inter
view General Master Workman
Powderly said very probable some form of
a consolidation of the Knights of Labor
and Farmers Alliance will be accomplished
soon. Together they will have, he said,
about three million votes, an army so vast
that politicians will not dare spurn it. The
combined organizations will WELD such
political power as to control the presiden-
tai chair. If an amalagamation is brought
about | think the American Fedora
ton of Labor, Brotherhood of En-
glneers and other great labor
bodies will want to be merged. 1t will
probably mean the birth of a new political
party which will have sufficient strength
to control the tariff and other legislation.
