There are a great many cases in which
people dose themselves with medicine
when they should instead stir around"
to use a homely Yankee phrase. Altogether
too many people live in foul, vitiated sur.
roundings, breathing in with every inspi
ration the germs of disease. In certain
cases these external conditions cannot be
changed; in others they might be and
ought to be. But however that may be, a
compound elixir of wonderful efficacy is
within the reach Of almost every person,
without money and without price. Pure
mir, sunlight, exercise-those are the in
gredients, u they are to be had every
where. UsG them, and use them geuer-

town, shot and killed his wife in her bed

a spree. and at such times was very quar-
relsome and abusive to his wife. though
kind to her when sober. Last night be

wife. This morning he renewed the
quarrel as 5000 as Mrs. Matthews awoke.
and Just after she rose fru1 bed he drew
his pistol aud shot her three tunes. All
the bullets took effect in her head and
breast and she fell dead. The frightened

In a short time an angry mob of ex-

New YORK, March e. = Chauncey
Depew presided to.night at a dinner given
by the Federal club, at which many nota-
bles were present. Mr. Depew. in his
remarks, said: Il am here tonight
much to my surprise. The cOrOner's jury
holds me responsible for all accidents on
the Central railroad. Dlsmissing this,
however. | will say that we are here to-
night as Republicans. There are no mug
wumps to doubt our faith in this world
and the next. We are present 10 give
greeting to the Republican leaders in con
gress. We welcome Reed and Lodge and
regret that Mckinley 10 not here. A
Republican, properly constituted, has
nothing to defend. The Republican
party always won its victories by being
aggressive. We are happy in the fact
that the party of Garfield and Blaine. of
Lincoln and Grant, is the party OF Nc
duced Speaker Reed. who was received
with great applause. He said, in part:
Half the struggle in life is to get a
hearing. When Christopher Columbus
discovered America it took him three
months, but it took him half his life to
get a chance to discover it. Advertise
ment Is an absolute prerequisite TO the
sale of goods, and your best advertisers
are your enemies. | will challenge the
world to point to the equal of the fifty
first congress for the great good it has
done. We have done more than passed
great measures. We have shown
to the people that it is posi-
BILE to have a responsible govern
ment. This country today. with
its 60, 900, 600 people, cannot be governed
as when it had 5000, 900. Our
government has got to be the growth of
tho necs ssities of our people and cannot
be adopted from any other land. Mr..
Reed spoke OF the increased work OF
congress, comparing the work OF the one
Just closed with its predecessor, and
added, What | claim for the house of
representatives is not what it has done,
but it has rendered possible for all time
to be done" Tremendous applause fol
lowed Reeds speech.
Congressman Lodge, in his remarks,
said he was not content with the vague
declaration, Il am a Republican. The
Republican platform stated the party to he
the party of honest money. The declara
ton to that effect was too vague to suit
the speaker, but the killing OF the
proposition for free silver showed the
party was IN favor of honest finance, 1t
was also the party for civil ser
vice reform, and these facts explained
what he meant when he SAID. II am a
Republican" OF the last congress,
Lodge said: I'VE have given minority
rule a deadly blow. We have crippled
obstruction. We have proved to the
American people that the house can legis-
late and made it impossible for any ma
jority in the future to escape responsibility
by the miserable excuse that the minority
would not let 1t leglslate."
Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt,
Gen. Woodford and Judge Annoux also
spoke.

PTTrsBURG. March 6.-The causes
which led to the sudden break down of
the Pennsylvania company trainmen from
their threatened strike for increase of
wages are now coming to the surface. 1t
appears that on tie day the grievance
committee discovered uumistakable evil
dence that the company was prepared for
fight. In the offices Of General Manager
Wood aud General Superintendents
Waits and Miller and the various division
headquarters of The system there were
filed applications for work from men in
every branch OF train service, and they
could all nave been available 10 from
twelve to twenty four hours. These ap-
plicatious came from Pittsburg, Chicago,
New York, Cleveland, ST. Louis. Phila-
delphia and various parts of the country.
The men learned OF this and saw certain
defeat in case of a strike. But there was
a more potent reason still for the collapse
Of the strike scheme. The committee
recognized that with freight offerings ex-
tremely light, a much smaller force was
necessary, and that since the number of
idle men is now larger than at any time
in the past two years there would be little
trouble to fill vacancies. 1t was therefore
agreed to wait until the Pennsylvania and
other roads are crowded with freight and
until railroad workers are nearly all en-
ployed and then make the demands. 1t
was with this agreement that the com
mitteemen returned to their homes.

Murphg and his wife Nora, live in
Hoboken. They have five children, four
of whom are are Murphv's by his first
wife, The other child, II years old. is
Mrs. Murphy's by her first husband. Mr..

powerless to act as the mother was the

sherman Long a Baptized Catholic.

CINCINNATI, March 6.-Sister An
thonv, one of the oldest and best known
Catholic nuns in America, in an interview
today settles the much-dIsputed question
OF the baptism of Gen. Sherman IN the
Catholic church, She said:
The colonel, for Sherman was only a
colonel then, wal baptized in this city
just before he started out on one of his
Virginia campaigns. | was a very
intimate friend of Mrs. Sherman. At
that time | was stationed at St. Johns
hospital, and Mrs. Sherman sent for me
and asked that | take care OF the children.
One afternoon she stated that the colonel
was about to be baptized by Archbishop
Purcell, and that she wanted to devote
the whole day to him. Whether that
ceremony took place at the archbishop's
residence, near the cathedral, or at the
Burnett mouse, | am unable to say, but
that he was baptized into the Catholic
church that day there can be no doubt.
| wish now that | had remembered the
particulars more fully. 1t was a time
when a man heart was sorely tried and
had to face death continually. Personally
| was not acquainted with Gen. Sherman"

Kipling'S Partner.

The death Of that promising young New
York novelist, Wolcott Balestier, the
young American, puts an end to the liter
ary partnership he had recently formed
with Rudyard Kipling. A great many
people We're curious to note the outcome Of
that collaboration. He was buried at Dres-
den, Germany and Henry James, the nov
elist, helped conduct the obsequies. Lon
don cables speak particularly OF Balestier's q
wide acquaintance among the literary peo-
pie Of England, and Of their regard for
him. It is satisfaction to know chat Mr..
Balestier's literary work, so far as has been
announced, is done. The serial ssNaulali-
ka," now appearing IN The Century, is
completed, and the entire manuscript Of
his own novel is in the EDITORS hands

out the authors name being disclosed.
The editor read it and accepted it at once.
He said to me at the time that he had lust

A Novel Advertisement.

The following story which has never
before appeared in print, is told about the
editor ofone Of Names most prominent
dailies: When small boy, his father,
now one Of the most prominent men in
4he state. was then running a printing
office and publishing weekly paper in
one Of the largest towns in Kennebec
county. One day the advance agent Of 4
show came along and ordered some posters
printed upon cotton cloth, His order was
filled, but for some reason he neglected to
call for them, and they were thus left on
the printers hands. The printers wife ran
across them, and, as cloth was then high.
she took the cloth home and used it to line
pair of pants she was then making for
the editor above mentioned, then a boy
about ten years of age.
AS the months rolled by, the pantaloons
grew hreadbare, and at school one day he
accidentally tore the seat out, leaving
about one foot Of lining exposed to view.
This in itself would have made the boys
smile, but they laughed till the tears came
when they observed the following words
standing out boldly upon the lining in
large type:
gins ats :00."
1t is needless to state that the boy was
sent home to his mother in tears.
