SynOds and Sinners.

There's a Presbyterian minister in De-
troit whose wife is very fond of this city
as a place Of residence. Some time age
the synod to which he belongs was dis
cussing the ACCESSIBILITY of sending him
away ON some important business occu'
plying a year or Sc. 1t was suggested to
him, and he went to his wife as all good
husbands do.
my dear" he said to her cautiously
''what do you think Of going away from
Detroit"
81 don't think of it at ALL" she an
swered promptly. why did you ask?'
"Well, the synod has asked me to go,
and"-
She went over to him softly, and, put
ting both hands on his head in a moth
erly way, she said solemnly:
my son, if synods entice thee, con,
sent thou not"
And he didn't.-Detroit Free Press.

FOR COLDS AND LAGRlPPE
Use Kings Royal Germetuel

Wherever the test has been made there
is no questioning the fact that Germetuer
will cure LaGrippe in all forms and at
all stages. Taken on the first symptoms
it will prevent a severe attack; taken
when the disease has you fast in its
clutches it will break it's grasp; taken
after the disease has left you disabled it
| will remove the effects.
DR.. p. S. HENSON, of Chicago, after
using one bottle, talks as follows:
A almost fatal attack of LaGrippe,
last winter, left me with nasal catarrh
and such susceptibility to bronchial irri-
tation that the slightest exposure would
develop it, and a very little effort in pub
lie speaking would result in a distressing
hOarseness, so that | had serious fears of
permanent disability.
Besides, | suffered with dyspeptic
troubles-notably what is popularity
known as heartburn from which |
found it difficult to obtain relief. l was
induced by a friend to try Kings Royal
Germetuer, and it gives me great pleas
ure to say that its effect has been as
magical as 'Koch's Lymph is reported
to be, which is also a germ destroyer
though taken in a different way.
"Catarrh, bronchial irritation and dys.
pOpSld nave oil OlS1ppCdiCu OCIOlC OuC
bottle of Germetuer has been used.
Zone of my sons, who has long been a
sufferer from catarrh, has received like
signal relief from his old enemy"
A prominent physician of Atlanta, Ga.
after giving it a thorough trial on attack
of cold almost equal to LaGrippe, said
that he did not believe that Germetuer
would cure every thing, but he KNEW
that If would cure a bad cold.
In cases of fevers attending colds it
will remove the cause If your druggist
cannot furnish you, send direct to Kings
Royal Germetuer Co., Atlanta, Ca, and
the medicine will be sent, freight or ex-
press prepaid. Price 81 per bottle If a
preparation claiming to be Germetuer is
offered to you for less, you have reason
to suspect that it is a cheat. Every family
should keep a bottle Of Germetuer on
hand for immediate use on the first symp-
toms Of disease.

The Original Eleven Ostriches.

The longevity of the ostrich is a quail
ity that commends it to capitalists.
Arthur Douglass, a poor sheep farmer
zeal Graham's Town, South Africa, was
the pioneer ostrich farmer. He started
in 1865 with eleven wild bird chicks
and finding that they could be raised in
captivity, he started in to supply the
market with domestic feathers. He has
raised and sold thousands of chicks AM
stocked many of the surrounding
ranches, has marketed thousands of dol.
lars worth of feathers, and still has the
eleven original wild birds breeding and
yielding good marketable feathers.-ln

When a Man Is Thirty Years OF Age.
All men who employ animals in work

many years yet of doing excellent trot-
ting service, but they cannot run in
trials of speed.

Those who continue to run after they
are forty years old all finally succumb

Pawned a Five Dollar Bill.

A man who possessed alive dollar bill,
and wanted to blow it in badly, hit upon
a novel plan the other day by which to
save and spend it both. The bill was
given to him by a friend, and he was de-
termined not to part with it. After a
lengthy debate with himself he evolved
the brilliant scheme Of pawning the
note. He paid a visit to his uncle, raised
$4.62 on the bill, and spent it according
to his tastes. When further funds came
in he redeemed the original note.-Phila-

There are two stories afloat regarding
the mans identity, before the accident
occurred, but this is the most anthem
tic: A man by the name of Hent Hughes
claims, and is positive, that he had a
conversation with him about half-past
seven o'clock while going down the rail-
road with a string of fish. The unfOr-
tunate said that he had been fishing,
but did not catch any; after which he
went on his way. and two other
individuals watched him and
his companion until out of sight.
Both had been drinking, and
this probably has been the cause of his
death, as he had no doubt been sleep
ing on the track. The deceased had in
his pocket a conductors cash fare re-
ceipt from Steubenville to Bellaire, a
pOcketbook and knife and several other
minor articles were found. On his
breast was picked cross with
the form of woman inside

hat and two pair of pants, one pair
striped and a pair of jeans over them,
and wore congress shoes. In his vest
pocket was found an account of his
board bill and his work days, which in
dicateS that he had been employed by
a stone contractor OF Bellaire by the
name of Kellar. The deceased was a
man about five feet seven inches high
with dark hair and muStache and had
been but recently shaved and was about

Further Details of How Brewer Groh
Was Done Up.

New YORK, May 1S.-Nichael Groh
* a prosperous brewer and senior mem

Twenty-eighth street. He had sad
experience with confidence men in Hot
Springs, Ark. 1t all came TO llght

torney in Hot Springs they had A. IL.
NoneS. Of 40 Broadway, bring suit IN
the name of Frank Goodwin for the re-
covery of the amount OF the check,
which the West Side Bank of this city,
under instructions from the son OF Mr..
Groh. had refused 10 pay. George
Flarnmer, counsel for the brewer, mas
obtained from Judge Lawrence stay
of proceedings until Lawer NoneS snail
furnish the address and business OF his
client.
That is the way the matter stands
now. and il IS more than likely that Mr..
Goodwin will let il stand that way a
long time before he appears In New
York. This is the story the brewer I'M
folded to his counsel: He went down TO
the Hot Springs with his wife in the
latter part of March. While he was
strolling around the grounds of his
hotel on April a SOft-yoiced and polite
young man came up and opened con-
yersation with him. The young man
turned out to be an old Schoolmate OF
the brewers son. He introduced him
self as Frank Tiffany, and had such a
fund of information about the solid citi-
zens of New York, particularly the
brewers. that Mr.. GrOh began TO like
him exceedingly. The young man said
that he had recently received letter
from Mr.. Groh'S son asking for lot OF
photographs of things around Hot
Springs. Would the brewer go with
him to his (Mr Tiffany'S) cottage and
get the photographs and kindly deliver
them to Mr.. Tiffany'S old Schoolmate!
or course the brewer would.
At the cottage he was invited TO join
with friend in game of poker. Inc
brewer said he would not play, but his
persuasive friend induced him TO sit by
and watch the game. He says he be-
lieves Mr.. Tiffany drugged him while
he was looking at the phenomenal hands

are establishing large colonies In California.
1t is expected that $4,000 negroes will become
residents of this state within the next II
months. In view o. these facts the Demo-
cratic politicians are alarmed. as the colo
nists are quite likely to bewilder the shrewd-
est political manager on the coast. Rev. r.
G. o. Benjamin, prominent and wealthy
colored man Of this city. Is at the head of
the movement. In an Interview yesterday
he said: "Our object in bringing negroes to
California is TO supplaDt the Chinese. The
Celestials are not citizens or voters, ana the
colored people are both. We will guarantee
employment to all the people we bring here,
and they will be provided with small tracts

BANGOR, August 12.-At about 1 o'clock
this morning this city was visited by a ter
rifle electrical storm and for nearly three
quarters Of an hour the heavens were fairly
ablaze. The rain came down in torrents and
in the meantime the electric lights on both
the street and incandesceDt circuits went
out, leaving the city In inky darkness be-
tween the flashes of lightning.
Amid the crashing Of the thunder and the
vivid play of the lightning, the fire alarm
bell was sounded, thus adding the terrors Of
a conflagration to the already wild scene.
The alarm was from box 81 and In few
minutes the light of the flames could be seen
in the direction of Kenduskeag avenue.
The fire was found to be In the fine stable
Of the Jones Veazie estate on the hill. Mr.
Townsend was closing window In the rear
of the house when fearful flash Of light
ming came. striking the stable In the north
Corner, tearing great hole and setting it
afre. The shock almost knocked Mr.
Townsend, who is SO years of age. to the
floor, and also affected Miss Veazle so that
sss was unable to speak fer some time.

as possible in the darkness and mud. The
1t was full Of hay and burned rapidly. The
two horses, cow, carriages, etc., in the build
ing were safely removed. After fighting the
nre for nearly two hours it was extinguished.
The loss will probably be about $1,000.
The streets were flooded with water dur
ing the storm. There must have been con-
siderable damage done In this section.
