WHAT oUREs9
Editorial Difference of Opinion on an In
portant Subject.


What is the force that Gusts disease; and
which is the most convenient apparatus
for applying it, How far is the regular ply
sician useful to US because we believe in
him, and how far are his pills and
powders and tonics only the material rep
resentatives of his personal influence on
our health?
The regular doctors cure; the homoeo-
pathic doctors cure: the Hahnemannites
cure: and so do the faith cures aud the
mind cures, and the so-called Christian
scientists, and the four-dOllar-and-a-half
advertising itinerants, and the patent
medicine men. They all hit, and they all
miss, and the great difference-one great
difference-in the result is that when the
regular doctors lose patient no one grum
bles, and when the irregular doctors lose
one the community stands on end and
howls.-Rochester Union and Advertiser.
Nature cures, but nature can be aided,
hindered or defeated in the curative pro-
gress. And the Commercials contention
is that it is the part of rational beings to
seek and trust the advice of men of good
character who have studied the human
system and learned, as far as modern
science lights the way. how far they can
aid nature and how they can best avoid
obstructing her-Buffalo Commercial.
1t is not our purpose to consider the evils
that result from employing the unscru-
pulous, the ignorant, charlatans and
quacks to prescribe for the maladies that
affiict the human family. We simply
declare that the physician who knows
something is better than the physician
who knows nothing, or very little indeed
about the structure and the conditions OF
the human system. OF course ''de does
not know it all. "-Rochester Morning

CHICAGO POOL SELLERS

CHICAGO, Oct 3O.-Last summer Ed
COrrigau, proprietor of the west side
track. caused the arrest of a number of
city booksellers for violating the state law
and city ordinance forbiddng the sale of
pools except within the enclosures of race
courses One of these cases came up for
final hearing before Judge Tuley today in
the circuit court, and the judge rendered a
decision to the effect that the statute and
the ordinance under il was unconstitu-
tional, because they tend to give special
privileges and to create monopoly in
gambling. These laws, he found. are sim
liar to those in New York and Louisville,
and his decision was in accord with de
cisions already rendered In those states
Judge Tuley stated that the law gave he
power of suppression of pool selling aud
gambling TO the mayor and the authorities;
but no authority was contained therein for
the regulation thereof. The trainers OF the
ordinance therefore acted beyong their
authority and the police have a right only
TO prohibit the sales of such pools.

TIMMoNsvILLE. S c., Oct. 3O.-While
Edmond H. Deas (colored) who is running
on the Republican ticket for congress from
This district, was addressing crowd Of
negroes in the interest of the Haskell
cause, exception was taken to his remarks
by certain Tillmanites among whom was
J. c. jackson. ,Jackson's temper was
excited to the point of belligerency,
and he drew his knife on Deas and
split his mouth open on one side
nearly TO the ear, and would have killed
him but for Col II. T. Morris, who tried
to make peace. In the praisworthy en-
deavor of Colonel Morris, Jackson, who
was highly wrought up, turned upon Col
onel Morris, and slashed him upon his
left cheek, and hacked him across his left
side, cutting clear through his clothing
and ripping the skin to a serious depth.
Deas bled profusely and it was believed he
would die from the wounds received. Jack
son was arrested, but released on $1,000
bonds for his appearance next Thursday
before the town council. There is consld-
cradle excitement among the citizens.

NATuRAlIZED VOTERS.

LINCOLN. Neb.. Oct 30-E f. Thomas,
Of Omaha, applied to the supreme court
for an injunction restraining some six
hundred rec ntly naturalized citizens Of
Omaha from attempting TO cast their votes
at he next election, and the several judges
of election Of that city from receiving such
votes if offered The claim made by the
relator was that the Personal Rights
league, an anti-Prohibition organization,
had paid the fees required for the naturali-
zation Of these parties. and that therefore
this action amounted to bribery. The
court refused TO take jurisdiction on the
case and the petitions were allowed to be
withdrawn without filing. 1t is under
stood that they will present the question
to the court again, but in another form.

TIL. Vanderbilt Money.

Each feminine member of the Vanderbilt
family has her own private fortune. Not
only did each son in marrying settle a
handsome amount on his wife, but when
the late William IL. Vanderbilt died he
made large and specified provision for
each daughter, granddaughter and daugh-
ter-iu-law. Among the latter the largest
amount went to Mrs. Frederick w. Van
derbilt, who was his favorite, and among
the former Mrs. Seward Webb, who was
his youngest daughter, received the most
generous sum. To none even of the grand
daughters was less than 500, 900 given, and
in some cases ten times that much.
Even the wee little women, like tiny
Frederika Vanderbilt Webb and little
Gladys Vanderbilt, the youngest daughter
of Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt, have their
stated allowances, small of course, but a
sense of responsibility is given the little
folks, and they are allowed to follow their
own baby judgments and desires as to
spending Upon each one of the children
is impressed the necessity of giving part
of their money each month in charity, and
very funny little stories are current among
friends ot the family as to their selections
of their benefciaries. Oddly enough they
do not make many more mistakes than a
good many grown up people and profes-
sional philanthropists.-New York Star.

bakers is especially active. Low grades
are kept sold up closely, the domestic de-

There is curious effect wrought on
the hair and beard of men engaged in
the Martin White mine at Ward. The
ore is roasted, but no disagreeable per-
fumes arise from the heating process,
yet there is some unknown substance
that changes the hair, beard and eye
brows as green as grass. The hair is not
injured, but retains its softness and
gloss. It is probable that the fumes Of
the green tint OF copper contained in the
ore change the hair 20 that color.-Vir-

peculiar looking fowl which he has kept

the breast and legs of chicken of the

slightly larger than an ordinary hen. 1t

walking its position is almost erect. very
