NAV Thank her Stars.

The narrow escape of Mrs. B. M.
Searies, of Elkhart, Ind, from a per.
mature death is wonderful. She
states that "for twenty years my
heart troubled me greatly. 1 became
worse. Had smothering spells, short
breath, huttering; could not sleep on
my left side, had much pain in breast,
shoulder and stomach. Ankles
swelled. Had mi:h headache and
dizziness. Treatment did me no good,

When bilious disorders are the
cause of dysentery or diarrhoea, or
when they accompany those diseases,
the system must be cleansed and the
bilious disorders corrected before the
dysentery or diarrhoea can be per-
manently cured. For this purpose
always use st. Patrick's Pills, and
after they have operated, take Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and a speedy cure is certain.

BRANDON BARKsDALE. PROPS

Who said the American was not
sound on silver, or that it is not
rated as prominent daily?" Read
these two extracts from its editorial
-. on gold and silver:
"The idea that all the gold would
be withdrawn from circulation il
silver were treated on an equality
with gold is ridiculous. If the gold
were withdrawn there would be
more demand for silver, which
would run the price up at once to
an equality with gold, and the gold
would come out from its hiding
place to earn interest. The Cogstitu-
ton says the money of this country
shall be gold and silver"

Some Fire Alarm SUGGESTIONS.


To the Editor of the Press:
Have we fire alarm system, or have we
none? five have. as we have been assured
several times that we have, what is 1t fol-?
Is it to inform firemen and the public that
there Is fire and to tell them just where it
is, or is it to confuse and middle them !?
Some Of the bells ring, 1t is true, when box
is pulled and the engine house indicators in
dictate; but they do not ring nor indicate the
numbers that they are intended to. The 9TH
er night box 4l2 was pulled. The bells gave
4l2, 5l2 and 81. Some Of the engine-house
indicators showed 512, some 412. The appar-
atus responded as their indicators showed.
and in consequence the committee on fire de-
partment has been travellin ground ever since
asking engine men and drivers why they
went up when they should have gone down.
Wednesday afternoon box "a was pulled.
This box they say has tight spring and a
rapid movement and 1t ratified off the alarm
too fast for the indicators, all of which piled
bell strikers on the churches struck six.
some "a. one. the st. Stephens, ratified off II
blows, then Z, then 8. then struck % and was
silent. The Williston bell was altogether ST.
lie t. Why are these things so? We have a
man whose business 1t is to manage the fire
alarm and keep it in order Why then is it
not In order? The st. Stephens bell has
been lame for more than year. the First
Parish bell has been similarly afflicted and
the Williston has had flashes of silence ever
since it was put up. All of these things are
well known to the city electrician, as Is the
condition of the boxes and indicators. Why
then Is such a state of things allowed to con-
tinue? 1t may be answered that the cleo
trician's duties as supervisor of wires of all
kinds take all of his time. Would it not then
be in the interest of economy to so readiust
things that he would be relieved either of
the care of the fire alarm or the other wires.
The election of city officers is approaching
and it would be worth something to the city
to consider the matter Of adding to the list
either superintendent of fire alarms or an
inspector Of wires. FIREMAN.

Isle, composed of these defendants, in 1883.
In July Of that year. Roxanna Bvrto, the re-

another person took her place. In October
the plaintiffs sent a statement of account
and received by mail note on four months,
signed G. A. Barto & Co., for which they
gave receipt on account. The plaintiffs
now claim that they did not know of the
change in the firm In July, but supposed

Mr.. coonbs VIII Not Enter Into a
Contest for the Nomination.

Messrs. Eben Corey and Others:
Gentlemen Since the publication OF our
recent correspondence it has been alleged
that my nomination as the Republican can
didate for Mayor would be cause for dis
cord in the party l am not willing that my
act in permitting the use of my name should
by any possibility endanger the success OF
the party in the election, nor will consent
to enter into any contest to secure nomin-
alton which l should only accept when
rendered with comparative unanimity.
The large number and well known charac'
ter of the signers Of your letter led me to
suppose that your request reflected the sentl,
ments of the party at large. and precluded
any factional issues in purely municipal
election but it is evidently otherwise.
/, therefore, release you from all obligation
arising from our correspondence and Will
cheerfully unite with you In supporting
candidate who will represent united party,
to the end that he may be triumphantly
elected.
Thanking you for your kind expression oil
confidence which l shall always esteem as
highly as the honors of the mayoralty itself
have the honor to remain,
Yours very respectfully,

Four sugar barrels full are worth $1,000 For
some of 1t So cents a pound is paid. 1t comes
from the great forests of Canada, and the
French Canadians who dig it from the trees
earn good deal of money. One lot bought
by the above firm, worth between $500 and
$500, was brought here by Canadian who
was only three months obtaining it. That
makes 800 month at the least. These
Canadians dig the gum. then bring it to the
city, having made no arrangements to dis
pose of 1t, and. of course. uncertain as to
whether they will find purchaser. These
figures give some idea Of the amount Of gum

gum Is used for no other purpose. Part of it
is sold to dealers in manufactured gum who
mix it with other and cheaper substances,
but the most Of 1t is chewed in the pure state.
