Catarrh

Is a complaint so common that comparatively
few people are entirely free from it, so insidi-
Gus that it gains firm hold almost before its
victims are aware of its presence, danger
Gus as to seriously threaten the general
health, and liable to develop into bronchitis or
Consumption.
1t is a mistake to consider Catarrh merely
local trouble. 1t is unquestionably disease
of the blood, and therefore the right way to
cure Catarrh is to remove from the blood the
impurities which cause and feed IL. This is
to be done by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
great blood purifier, which effectually expels
all traces of poison and germs of disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla cured me of Catarrh,
and built up my general health, so that / am
feeling better than for years.

p. IT. Barnum Dead.

p. L. Barnum, the world renowned
and veteran Snowman, died peaceful
ly at his home in Bridgeport, Conn.
at :32 o'clock Tuesday evening. For
several days past his immediate fam
lily have entertained grave fears for
his recovery, but it was not until last
evening when an alarming change
for the worst was apparent. During
the period of Mr.. Barnum's sickness
of over p weeks, in which he has
been confined to the house, he has
slowly out gradually become wea ker,
and his decline has been perceived
by those of his immediate family.
He was born in Danbury, Conn. July
10, 1910. He received only the COM
mon school education of those days.
and at the age of Is began business
on his own account by fitting up
part of an old carriage house as a re-
tail fruit and confectionery store.
Three years later he opened a store
of "all Sorts" and on Oct. 10, 1882.
made his first venture in journalism
by starting a weekly democratic pa
per, called the Herald of Freedom.
In 1884, Mr.. Barnum removed to
New York city, his first situation
there being that of a drummer to sew
eral Catham street establishments.
In July, 1885, he purchased the cell
ebrated 'Joice Heth'' for $1,000, and
took his first step in the show busi-
dess, opening at Niblo's Garden
Joice Heth was a colored woman, said
to be 16l years old and the nurse of
George Washington, and from that
time to the day of his death he was
the great American Snowman.
In 1872 he organized his HGreat

Travelling Worlds Fair" and in
1873 he purchased the immense iron
structure on Fourteenth street, called
the ''Hippotheatron." -Four weeks
after his first exhibition in this build
ing, it, too, was destroyed by fire. en-
failing upon him loss of $500, 900.
His beautiful Iranistan residence was
also destroyed in the same way, and
thus within a few years Mr.. Barnum
had suffered losses by fire amounting
to fully S1,200,000. Still undismay-
ed by these frightful losses, the great
Snowman at once set about collecting
material for greater exhibition than
ever. One year from the destruction
of his Fourteenth street building he
opened his well-remembered clip
podrome. His enterprises in the
show business from 1875 to the pres
ent day are too well known to require
recapitulation here. He was known
all over the world as the king of
showmen, and probably no one will
ever be found who will completely fill
his place in the amusement world.
He gave Bridgeport a public park,
and was regarded as one of its best
citizens. He also gave Tufts Col
lege a natural history building of
stone, and upon the death Of any of
the animals of his menagerie their
skins were sent to it. Jumbo's skel-
eton and skin are here preserved and
mounted. His autobiography, sever
al times rewritten, and a story call
ed ''Lion jack" are among his liter
aTy achievements.
In all his enterprises Mr.. Barnum's
aim was to exalt the character of
popular amusements. Some years
ago, in letter to new journal, he
said: "When it is evident that the
public, old and young, are not made
wiser, better and happier by the rec
reation which I provide for them, my
efforts in that direction will cease"

A Vermont correspondent writes
to Grange Homes: We recently re-
ceived 4 communication from an old
friend who left Vermont nearly 20
years ago and settled in Wisconsin.
From what he writes one would not
conclude that the conditions there
for farming are much ahead of those
of New England. Business there is
now dull and prices of farm produce
not encouraging. Horses sell only
at low figures, and cows cannot be
disposed of at any price. Two-year-
old steers bring two cents a pound,
live weight. Wheat for so cents a
bushel, corn for 10 cents, oats for
50 cents and potatoes for 30 cents a
bushel. Hay is Sc a ton. Sheep
do better and the prices compare
more favoably with eastern quota
tions, flock sheep bringing $3.50
head, fat whethers So per hundred.
He thinks the Swedes will succeed
here in Vermont, as that class of
people in the West do better, than
the majority of Americans do. He
adds that it seems strange that young
people should leave Vermont and 90
west.

Resignation of Senator Edmunds
UNITED STATES SENATE,

HUSHtHgtOU, II. o., HDf.O, 81.
,Str, tr,-ConsideratiOns entirely personal
lead me to tender to you, as governor of
the state of Vermont, my resignation of
the office of senator of the United States,
the resignation to take effect on the first
day of November, A. d. 1891. This ac-
ton has been for some time in contem-
plation, and is finally decided upon and
communicated to you at this time in order
that there may be ample time to hear and
consider the views of the people of our
state in respect to the selection of my
successor.
In thus terminating my official relations
with the state, L beg to express to her
steadfast, intelligent and patriotic citi-
zens, my profound gratitude for the long
and unwavering confidence and support
they have given me Covering an eventfu1
period of quarter of century, in my
efforts to promote and defend, so far as
1 have been able, their honor and
welfare, in common with that of all the
people of the United States. In ceasing
to be a senator, 1 am proud that 1 contin-
ue to be a citizen of our beloved common
wealth, and that 1 may with my fellow
citizens in private life continue to strive
for the maintenance of those principles
of liberty, equality and justice in govern
ment which have, without the shadow of
turning, animated them from the founda-
tion of the republic.

The Duty Of the Hour.

1t is not generally known that il
June, 1890, there were in round fig
ures no less than 10000 agricultural
or farmers organizations in the Unit
ed States, with an actual member
ship of nearly 2,500,000 persons. Oh
course this included agricultural so.
cieties, farmers clubs, horticulture
associations and many organizations
besides those of a political character
Allowing, however, for all these, II
will be generally admitted that when
Secretary Rusk says in the current
number of the North american Re
Ute20 that the duty of the hour is tC
study the widespread movement
among the farmers of the country to-
ward a more active participation in
public affairs he utters truth that
politicians and statesmen will appre-
ciate. The secretary of agriculture,
himself farmer: presents the clear
est and truest picture of the farmers
side of the question that we have seen
anywhere in print. While frankly
admitting that some farmers, or rep
resentatives of farmers, smarting un-
der sense Of injury, may be guilty
of eXaggerating their grievances, Mr..
Rusk forcibly points out some of the
real difficulties of the situation from
farmers standpoint.
On the subject of lower prices the
able secretary of agriculture says that
people forget that the farmers profits
are small, rarely exceeding per Ct,
and hence reductions of prices that
seem trifing to Industries yielding
10 and 20 per cent profit cut the
farmer to the quick. He is likewise
of the opinion, and in this the press
is heartily with him, that the active
interest of the farmers of the coun-
try will be beneficial to the body pol
itic. They are the thinking ,conserv-
ative men of the Republic, and the
moral strength and backbone of the
nation. And more than any other
class the western farmer represents
the homes and families which mean
so much to our country.
AS Mr.. Rusk says, capital need
fear no illegitimate onslaughts on the
rights of property at the hands of the
men who own their own homes, who
till their own acres and who owe their
living to the proper administration
of the little capital they possess. The
danger lies far from the American
farmer. 1t turks in our large cities
in the rum shops and gambling dens,
and in the slums where the ignorant
and irresponsible congregate and are
led by the worst elements of society.
We hope the secretary of agriculture's
article will be widely read. 1t shows
him to be a true, honest and courage
Gus friend of the farmer, and fully in
sympathy with the movement on the
farmers part to take a hand in ma
tional affairs.

usages of the Senate, which came
from period before the war He is
naturally combative and fond of de-
bate, never enjoying himself better
than in opposition, so that his peculi-
arties led him to oppose and criticise
measures which other men had in
charge and to oppose the personal
desires of other men. The late Da-
vid Davis used to say he could al
ways compel Edmunds to vote in the
negative on any question by putting
1t in the old New England fashion
Contrary minded will say no'-for
Edmunds was always contrary mind
ed. remember once, when the re-

setts nominated him for the presiden-
cy, his telling me, with undoubted
sincerity, he did not desire the office
of president and that he much pre-
ferred his opportunity for future SER
vice in the Senate. | said to him
'Mr. Edmunds, just think of the fun
you would have vetoing bills He
evidently was much delighted with
the idea, ,and said: well, that would
be good fun any way"
"Nobody will be thinking of small
foibles or small jests in the general
sorrow that this long, great and use
ful public life has come to a close

health of the members of his charm
ing household, will be fully restored,
and that he will hereafter be called
to serve his country again in the SEN
ate OF some other place of cOnspic-
uous usefulness. My own high esti-
mate of him is evinced by the fact
that, although have had some very
strong reasons indeed to regret and
disapprove his action on some impor-
tant occasions, | have twice voted
for him in national convention as the
republican candidate for the presi-
dency, and have twice advised the
republicans of Massachusetts to
adopt him for that office"

The announcement from Berlin
that the German Government has
definitely decided to remove its en-
barge on American hog products is
a gratifying result of diplomatic ne
gotiations directed from Washington
by Secretary Blaine, through the
United States Minister, Hon. William
Walter Phelps. The original prohib-
tion on American pork was laid on
account of its alleged unhealthy char
acter-or, rather, because there was
no adequate inspection to demon
strate that it was sound and pure
meat. Since the passage of the
Meat Inspection billin August, 1890,
Germany's excuse for the embargo
has been untenable, and it was only
a question of time when she must be
compelled to admit American pork,
or stand the consequences, which
WOulu nave Deen an embargo on
some of her leading exports to this
country. The official declaration Of
the removal of the prohibition will
not be forthcoming for some days, it
is said, because of negotiations 60
ing on between representatives of the
two governments in Berlin, but the
semi-official statement is acceptable
for what it is worth. The exclusion
of the American hog and pork pro-
duets by the German government has
cut down our expectations largely,
and if the market again open the effect
will be very beneficial to the pork
raisers of the United States.
