Roasted Four Families.

hoNSteE FouE tamt1ieB.
An incendiary fire, attended with numerous
accidents, occurred at an early hour the Other
morning at 378 State street, Chicago. Atabout
three o'clock policeman saw a man throw a
bundle of blazing straw into the window of
Frank B"aumout's shooting gallery, 4; the
basement OF the building. The officer caught
the ffebug as he ran away, and attempted to
hold him. The blazing bundle of straw had
set fire to the building and as the officer dc.
sired to turn in an alarm as speedily as pos
sible, he dragged the man toward fire alarm
box. The man struggled desperately, and
finally slipped from the officers grasp and
made his escape. When the fireman reached
the burning building the basement was in q
sheet Of flame. Pipeman Thomas Dougherty
was among the first TO be ordered into the
building. lie was overcome by the heat, and
was carried out, -Four families were living

building, and when the ii eman broke in the
doors they found nine persons lying uacon.

Talking Of patent medicines

Talking of patent medicines
you know the old prejudice.
And the doctors some of
them are between you and US.
They would ike you to think
that what's cured thousands
won't cure you. You'd be-
lieve in patent medicines Is
they didn't profess to cure
eoe,ythtng - and so, between
the experiments of doctors,
and the experiments of patent
medicines that are sold only
because there's money in the
stuff, you lose faith in essyy-
thing.
And, YOU can't always tell
the prescription that cures by
what you read in the papers.
So. perhaps, there's no better
way to sell remedy, than to
tell the truth about it, and
take the ,zSk of its doing just
what it processes to do.
That's what the Worlds
Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, of Buffalo, N. Y, does
with
DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery,
Favorite Prescription,
Pleasant Pellets, and
DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
If they don't do what their
makers say they'll do = you
get your money back.

SENTIMENTS OF FARMERS"
"a Country Democrat" Writes About the
Coupon Cases,

"a Country Democrat" writes as follows
TO THE TINES: 81 have read with much in
terest the several communications in your
valuable paper on the coupon and anti-cou-
non question. In the beginning. VIII state
that | am Democrat and have always been
one, but do not approve of the course now
being pursued by the Democratic party IN
VIRGINIA. | am a strict believer in states
as well as individuals adhering strictly To
their contracts, and enforcing them TO the
letter. II looks like schOol-boys' play ana
beneath the dignity Of a great state to be
venting her spite upon her own citizens
who dare 10 assert their rights, ana DO
what the courts say they have a perfect
right 10 do. Where suits have been brought
and judgments obtained, why don't the
state put up the property and sell 1t! why
continue to get judgments and pile up the
costs i'm order TO bulldOze the taxpayer INTO
submission and enrich the officers OF the
courts, when the state cannot possibly de-
rive any benefit whatever from these addi-
tionol suits and judgments: The old State
of Virginia should be ashamed 10 pursue
such a pucillanimOus course, and resort 10
such insignificant means to compel her tax
pavers 10 surrender their rights, simply 10
eratify the sentimental talk of patriotism,
about which some Of her citizens delight 10
dilate.
III there is one thing that will tend to
weaken the Democratic party, 1t VIII he the
course now being pursued by the state IN
this matter. / can assure you that speak
the sentiments of thousands OF good and
true Democrats all over the state, and l
will say further, that nearly all Of our
country people would pay their taxes in
coupons, if they could save money and had
the coupons among them, where it would
not be attended with so much trouble, and
the probable prosecution by the State. Our
people are poor, and will avail themselves
of the privilege Of saving money IN their
pockets, when the courts say they have the
right. This course. if continued by the
state. can only result in injury TO the Dem
ocratic party, and probably turn us over to
the Republicans do hope that our leaders
will take warning and not drive any one
from our ranks, for we cannot afford to lose
a single vote. Our officials had better stop
these double suits and abide by the de-
cisous Of the highest courts in our coun-
fry -

CHARTER FEES COLLECTED.
Why Protests Against Payment Are
Made by COrporatOrs.

Made by COrporatOrs.
The act 10 require the payment of fees on
certain charters, as approved February 10th,
1890, reads:
"Be it enacted by the General Assembly of
Virginia, That every charter OF incorpora-
lion hereafter granted under The provisions Of
section lll5 Of the Code Of Trginfl, and
every act Of Incorporation hereafter passed by
the General Assembly. shall be, ana continue
to he wholly imperative and Intellectual for
any and all purposes whatever, until the
payment of a fee TO be ascertained, &c"
A bill TO amend and re-enact an act OF
the General Assembly, approved February
TO- 1890, the same act as quoted above,
reads Just the same as the above act, with
the exception that all the words IN italics
are left out, making the act read; BE 1t
enacted by the General Assembly of Nir-
gina That section one of an act Of the
General Assembly, approved February 10,
1890, entitled an act to require the payment
Of fees on certain charters, be amended and
re-enacted so as to read as follows: That
every charter of incorporation hereafter
passed by the General Assembly shall be,
&c. This was evidently the fault of the
engrossing clerk, who had the Senate bill
TO engross, but the original bill has not
been found.
Uuder protests made by persons granted
charters by courts, this error in the engros-
ing of the act was discovered, but section
I'd of the act of February 10th, 1890, says,
Until the fact of payment is thus certified
TO the Secretary of the Commonwealth, he
shall not record the articles of incorpora-
ton, and until the fact of payment is certi-
fed TO the Keeper of Rolls, he shall not fur
nish copy Of the act Of Incorporation
In all of the cases of protest Attorney
General Scott has decided in favor of the
State, and applicants for charters are COM
PEELED to pay before they are recorded.
Up TO date the State has realized over
$23, 900 revenue from charter fees, and the
law has only been operative four and half
months
