Blaine of Maine.


known that he was i'll, is an unmls
taxable measure of the man s great
ness. The tributes to his ability and
craftsmanship, have been universal,
not merely being limited to Republi.
can Journals, but to prominent
Democratic newspapers as WELT OF
the encomiums recently passed. upon
the accomplished Secretary, we have
noticed none, that in graceful, ex-
preston, and truths forcibly stated,
one deserving more attention than
the following from that sensible and
conservative journal the Philadelphia
Ledger. Few statesmen of any
country have commanded so much
genuine esteem, so much love as Mr..
Blaine has done. His position IN
American politics S almost unique.
Bismarck, in the day OF his great
power, was feared by many of his
countrymen, even by those who hon
ored him for his remarkable abilities
and for the benefits he had confer
red upon his country; Gladstone,
''the grand old man" OF British
craftsmanship, is loved and admired
by formidable party. but by an
other party he is denounced and
condemned. Mr. Blaine has no enc
mics to day. He has political op-
ponents, but they oppose only his
political sentiments, and among the
multitudes of his countrymen who
delight to do him honor they are not
the least. AS the premier of the
present Administration Mr.. Blaine
has won golden opinions from all
sorts of people, Democrats uniting
with Republicans in praising the
fine dignity, the exceptional ability,
the wisdom, courtesy, courage and
force with which, IN international
and national questions of the gravest
and most difficult character, he has
maintained the honor and prestige
of his country and elevated the
character OF American diplomacy.
Mr.. Blaine has grown, year after
year, in all the qualities which denote
the great statesman and patriot. He
has similarly grown in the affection,
esteem and admiration of his country
men, and at present he stands indis-
putably the head and front of politl-
cal leadership. 1t is the rearing Of
men of his remarkable character,
ability and patriotism that conters
honor and dignity upon their
country.
1t is not believed that Mr.. Blaine's
illness is of serious nature or that
it will have any more than temper
airy inconvenience; it appears to be
simply the result OF unceasing devo-
ton to the exacting and onerous
duties of his office, which has seldom
had for its consideration so many
great matters Of international con-
Germ. II the Secretary of State had
had nothing more to do than to de-
wise and formulate his brilliant and
effective policy of Reciprocity, he
would still have had a giants load
on his shoulders, but that policy,
important and valuable as it is, has
been but one of the burdens OF State
which he has taken up and carried
forward with such assured success.
The universal feeling is that Mr..
Blaine's illness will soon pass away,
and that the Secretary will take that
needed rest from labor which will
give him again his wonted physical
vieor. Mr.. Blaine is one of the
! chief props and stays of his country,
as well as one OF the most honored
and beloved of American statesmen.

Spring is not really here
and the robins have not COM
menced their songs, but the
prudent man prepares for it in
advance by looking in on us
and seeing our goods. We
have the tables groaning under
the weight of the Spring fabrics
we have lately put in. Come
now while the lines are COM
plete, for there's no telling
how soon pieces will be used

The New York Tribune, in allud-
ing to the proposition of exhibiting
the Delaware whipping post at the
Chicago fair, says: The exhibition
at the Chicago fair of an old whip
ping post taken from Delaware will
not be edifying; though it may have
a certain utility as a horrible ex-
ample The post in question was
erected originally in 1857, and has
outgrown its usefulness. Visitors to
the fair would look on it more kindly
if it were the last relic of barbarism
Cot this sort) that Delaware or the
United States had to display. But
we are informed that "a new, sturdy
post of modern design will be cree
ted in its place in New Castle jail
1t is news to learn that there are
fashions in whipping posts; but just
how the modern design differs
from the ancient one we are not in
formed.

NEDICA..

No one doubts that DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy really
cures Catarrh, whether the
disease be recent or of long
standing, because the makers
of it clinch their faith in it
with a $500 guarantee, which
isn't a mere newspaper guar
antee, but "on call" in a
moment.
That moment is when you
prove that its makers can't
cure you.
The reason for their faith
is this:
DIR. Sage's remedy has
proved itself the right cure
for ninety nine out of one
hundred cases of Catarrh in
the Head, and the Worlds
Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton can afford to take the
risk of your being the one
hundredth.
The only question is-are
you willing to make the test,
if the makers are willing to
take the risk?
If so, the rest is easy. You
pay your druggist SO cents
and the trial begins.
If you're wanting the $500
you'll get something better

How Did This Man Get There >

ANsTED, w. Va, March "a most re-
markable discovery was made here yester-
day by the miners in the employ of the
Yanley Mountain Coal company, who are
driving drift under Rich Creek noun
tain. At point 200 feet from the en-
trance the miners broke into an empty
space 20xl6 feet, in the center of which
lay human skeleton which crumbled
into white dust on exposure to the air.
In one corner was the remains of an iron
vessel and on the walls near many inscrip-
tons and crude figures of trees and ami
mails. A careful inspection failed to show
that there was ever any opening from the
surface to the chamber, and no one pres
ent could solve the problem presented.

woman who attached the only stain to the
fame of England's great admiral He has
discovered lot of new data, it is said, and
