QUAY STILL ON DECK.
The Charges Preferred Against Him DO
Not Worry the Boss.

The Charges Preferred Against Him Do
Not Worry the Boss.
The Republican National Committee
is about to convene with reference to
organization for the Congressional CAM
paign. Some :ientious, high-mind-
ed Republicans have supposed that
Matt Quay would receive hint that MS
services as chairman will be no longer
in demand. 9th ers have fancied that
Ouay would feel it incumbent on him
self to retire.
These worthy but mistaken souls do
not understand either the chairman or
the organization over which he pre-.
sides. Quay is a managing politician OF
great self-confidence and no scruple
What does he stand charged with?
Nothing serious as he and his friends
"a ew it. When he was Secretary for
Pea 1nsylvania he induced the Treasurer
and his cashier to let him have sums
apgnagating $780, 900 and more. These
he gar 1bled away personally at the gam
ing tab lie and by broker on the Stock
Excbane e. But the State lost none OF
it. Did OF Senator Cameron through
Wavne MacVeagh adjust the whole
matter with out loss to the State and
without public scandal? And did not
Pennsylyania condone the whole matter
| by subsequently choosing Quay for State
Treasurer? 1t is true that electors
knew nothing about the temporary
deficit, so adroitly had Cameron
covered it up, but their election
of QUAY to the responsible post
of Treasurer is triumphantly cited as
sufficient vindication of the much ma
licned gentleman. Having the funds
in his own hands Quay diverted $780, ooa
to a little speculation which, proving
profitable to himself, left him under nc
temptation to default Quay himself
is not. the man to regard these perform
ances as calling for censure. He has no
sympathy with the squeamishness thal
rer,robates them, and Will not respond
to any sentiment in his party calling
for his abdication on any tritllng matter
/ of the kind.

campaign of 1888 is not questioned b.

Deafness Can't Be Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a rumo!in!g
sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t Is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condl
ton, hearing will be DESTROYED forever ever
which is nothing but an inaamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.

rhe Brayine of the Donkey at the Head
of the Agricultural Department.
The farmers have succeeded in max
ing an impression upon the minds OF
the statesmen at Washington. The de-
preston of the agricultural interests IS
now generally admitted, and all sorts OF
panaceas are suggested. Secretary
Rusk, of the Agricultural Department.
comes forward with two recommends
tons. He thinks, in the first place.
that the farmers do not entirely COM
prehend their business. He says they
should not acquire more land than they
can properly cultivate. He believes
thew lack intelligence and skill. When
the farmers read this they will want
Secretary Rusk's scalp. In the Sec
ond place, the Secretary recommends
high rates of duty on agrlcult-
ural products. In this partlcu-
lar the Secretary is logical. If we are
to have high rates OF duty on one thing,
there is no reason why we should not
have similar rates on another-that IS
to saw, if the idea of tariff for protec-
ton is 70 prevail as against the tariff
for revenue. But we do not believe the
farmers will accept Secretary Rask s
suggestions. They merely tend to show
how small potato is at the head OF the

"KEEPING TAB" ON TIE PIGS,

II You Have Not Thought of This Try IL
1t Will Pay. |
To keep history or private record OF
each litter of pigs and of every pig IN
the litter is not the difficult task 1t may |
at first thought seem to be. A gooo
wav is to devote to each litter page IN
the small pass-book mentioned IN
former article.
For convenience afterward, in num-
bering and remembering the ages OF the
MICS. it is we'll to book the litters each
wear in the order in which they come;
numbering the filters consecutlVely. "A
few weeks later, when the pigs must be
marked, to each of them should be given
the ear-mark or number Of its litter;
that is, all the pigs of any ono litter
should have the same mark or NUMBER.

litter with the name of the SOW. on
the next line write the date OF tarroW,
the word by, and following it, on the
same line, the name Of the sire. Head
the left hand, or date column, with
what are understood to be a pair OF ears,
on which the ear marks are to be noted.
The balance of the page below IS for use

the pigs. AS soon as they are old enough
to show what they are likely to make,
and to have that individuality about
them SO we'll understood by any one who
has any love or taste for watching the

tration, there are only five pigs in litter
No. three boars and two sows. Or

date column, place B for boar, and OF
every alternate line B until three art
placed.
Then continue down the column plac

scriptions or notes. If there is any fea
that the headings on the page may no
be understood, they may be mad

and sowed it to buckwheat as early as
the spring would admit. A heavy crop
was in blossom and plowed under in
July and the ground sowed again. This
was plowed in on September 10 and rye
sown. The next year the rye grew only
three feet high ami the heads were but
TX inches long. A friend plowed in

The crackers we're exploded in the middle Of
the street and no such racket has been heard

ones and at regular intervals they exploded,

FOUR PEOPLE DROWNED.
Two Men Make Heroic Efforts to Save
Their Families.

John Thompson and Richard Smith lost their
lives yesterday afternoon at McKeesport. Pa,
in heroic efforts to save their loved ones from
drowning. Two children persisted with them
The two families were out rowing in a fiat boat
on the Youghiogheny river. With Mr.. Thomp-
BON were his wife, two-year-old daughter Eliza,
and an infant. Mr.. Smith had with him his
wife, their daughter Priscilla and son Richard,
a lad of fifteen years. The entire party were
on the boat when suddenly one end Of the fiat
gave way from overweight. In an instant the
two families were foundering in the water an
the frai craft sank out of sight. Both men
could easily have gotten to shore, but they
turned their efforts TO their loved ones, whom
they priced more highly than life itself. Mrs.
Thompson chung pluckily to her little babe and
with the aid of her husband reached shore
alive. Then Thompson turned back to save
his little daughter. He caught her III his low
ing arms, faced shore again and bravely
struggled toward place of safety. But he was
exhausted and the heroic father sank with his
daughter clinging to his neck. Meanwhile
Richard Smith had saved his wife and had also
tried to rescue his daughter, but they, too
were exhausted and both persisted before the
eyes OF the affrlghted wife and mother. Robert
