Opening the Canal.

The most acceptable proposition that can
be made to persons troubled with chronic
constipation is to open that important
canal-the bowels. That proposition can be
carried out by the parties interested If they
resort to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the
most effective, most genial Alternative extant.
1t is the mistake of many otherwise sensible
people that they resort to drastic, or, in other
words, violent purgatives. Without exag
geration, this is highly injurious, since such
medicaments weaken the bowels, besides
convulsing both them and the stomach with
pain. Relief sought from the Bitters comes
freely enough, but they never produce pain,
excessive action or subsequent weakness of
the bowels. Liver and kidney trouble, ma
laria, dyspepsia, lack of stamina and a ten
dency to rheumatism are remedied by this
pleasant substitute for drenching cathartics.

LEW oocKsTADER's NEW JOKE.
1t Is on Himself and Is Good One-He
win Be Here Tonight.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, December a.
Lew Dockstader was arrested in this city
last night after the close of his perform
ance Of his minstrels, to satisfy a judg-
ment Of SS41.37 and interest, obtained
against him on an action of contract for
wages in the New York city court by
George F. Marion, comedian, in October,
1891. The arrest was made at the in
stance of Peter S. Maher, a Boston law
yer Doekstader was released on $500
bail, a New Bedford man i3sing surety.
Today Dockstader made application to
take the poor debtors oath, and his
counsel, Thomas Desmond, asked imme-
diate action SO Dockstader could get to
Biddeford, Me-, tonight and join
his company. But Judge B Blrden
refused to administer the oath or to re-
lease Dockstader from custody.
Deputy Sheriff Kirby, to whom Mr..
Dockstader was again given into custody,
refused to hold the defendant as he has
received no advance from the plaintiff
for board or fees. Mr.. Dockstader left
the court house with his lawyer. Deputy
Sheriff Kirby refused to rearrest Dock
stader tonight after. he had been refused
the poor debtors oath and he took the
train for Boston to rejoin his company in
Maine tomorrow. Counsel Desmond
says that the act of the deputy sheriff
refusing to take Dockstader in custody
after the hearing, relieves the bonds
men.

KEEP O IF THE FRONT PLATFORM
You Are Negligent, Say the Courts, If
You Ride There on an Electric Car.

Boston, Mass, December 14.-The full
bench of the Supreme Court has rendered
decision on a new point of law in the
case of Albert T. Beal VS.. the Lowell &
Dracut Street Railway Company. The
plaintiff was riding on the front plat
form of an electric car, and was thrown
to the ground in an accident caused by a
defective switch. The court overrules
the exceptions and sustains the decision
of the lower court, which found the
plaintiff guilty of negligence because
there attends the employment of cleo
tricity the same dangers that might at
tend the employment of steam, while it
is not necessarily negligent for passen-
ger to ride on the front platform of a
horse car while in motion.

AUGUSTA, December 14.-Charles A.
Rolfe, agent of the Passamaquoddy tribe
of Indians, made his report to the coun-
Gil, Wednesday morning. The appropri-
alton from the state is $65O0; expendi-
lures, $7,746.22. The appropriation was
overdrawn on account of sickness, owing
to which members of the tribe could not
go to the summer resorts where hereto
fore they have earned considerable mon
ey. Scrofula prevails to great extent
The tribe now numbers 501. During the
year there have been thirty-five DEATHS
ten of which were from consumption
and five from Inflammation of the bow
els Mr.. Rolfe thinks it would be wise
to empower the agent to withhold divi-
dends etc., from inebriates.
There has been less drunkenness the
present season than ever before He
would recommend an appropriation of
sse22 for each of the years 1893 and 1894,
except $500 for repairs of buildings the
latter year.
Long petitions from the towns of Do

BILL M'GARRAHAN'S BILL.
Senator's Try To Pass 1t Over the
Presidents Veto.
THE ATTEMPT CALLS ATTENTION
TO OTHER VETOES.

So Far, Mr.. Harrison Has Refused Tc
Sign Fifteen Measures-some Were
Corrected and Passed, as the New
Court Of Appeals Bill Which Original
Iy Annihilated the Supreme Court
Two Maine Bills Which Were Lost.
WASHINGTON, December IA. - The
Presidents veto of the last session OF
the bill to submit to the court of private
land claims the title of William McGar-
rahan to the Rancho Panoehe Grande in
California was laid before the Senate as
special order and vote was about be-
ing taken on the question, -''Shall the
bill pass?' when Mr.. Sanders demanded
an explanation on the part of the friends
of the bill of the reasons why it should
pass.
Mr.. Teller argued in support of the
BILL The case, he said, had been a
standing scandal for 25 years, and if the
bill now became law, the people would
be satisfied that justice was done to one
who had been wronged through the Off
cial agencies of the government.
Mr.. Hunton also supported the bill.
The morning hour expired and the bill
went over.
McGarrahan and his friends are conf
dent that the necessary two-thirdS Of the
Senate wi vote in favor of the resolu-
ton ''that the bill become a law, not
withstanding the Presidents objection. !"
They base their confidence upon the
fact that the bill passed the Senate by a
practically unanimous vote, and that
therefore there will be senators who will
again vote in it's favor. The Democratic
House, they add, will have much pleas
ure in passing the bill over a Republican
executives veto. Should the bill be
passed over the veto. it will be the first
instance of the kind during President
Harrison's administration.
The President has not hesitated to
withhold his approval of either measures.
So far, he has sent in fifteen vetoes.
Among them was the bill creating the
new Circuit Court of Appeals, which he
vetoed because of it's defective legal con-
struction. The bill was the work OF
Senator Evarts, who was much disgusted
to learn from the Presidents message
that the bill, as drawn by him, would
practically nave w1ped OUT Jne supreme
Court of the United States. AS rein
troduced. with he Objectionable features
corrected. the bill passed A number OF
other bills which President Harrison
vetoed simply because of their legal
faults were approved by him when cor
rected. The other bills which did not
admit of modification were referred to
the committees from which they came
and were never heard of again.
Among the measures thus abandoned
was he bill to recompense the Portland
(Me.) Compay; bill for public build
ing at Bar Harbor, and a number OF
private claims.

LONDON, December 14.-A fearful ex-
plosion occurred today at the Bam Fur
long colliery, at Wigan, and many lives
have been lost. The men went to their
work as usual this morning, and after
the colliery had been inspected In the
usual way. They had not been at work
long when terrible explosion shook the
earth for great distance, and cloud of
smoke shot up through the shaft into
the air. A multitude of people rushed
toward the mine and the greatest ex-
citement prevailed. 1t was soon ascer-
tanned that large number mad per-
ished, and the wailing and weeping of
women and children made an indescriba-
BILE scene. Steps were Immediately tax

offered to explore the pit.
The rescue parties report horrible
scene in the mine. In the main roads,
the bodies lie in twos and threes, as the
men fell, faces downward and heads to-
ward the entrances of the shaft. Large
sections Of the roof and. galleries have
collapsed. Amid the ruins wero found
mangled bodies and half burned limbs.
The ruins have blocked many parts of
the mine and therefore the men search
ing for bodies are unable to give any
definite idea of the number lost. Sew
eral miners, who were just alive when
found, died on their way to the surface,
or shortly after being taken from the
car. One rescue party reached the sur
face half suffocated by heat and smoke,
caused by fresh outbreaks of the fire.
The work of rescue will be continued
through the night, although there is
little hope that more men will be taken
out alive. The rescued men were in an
exhausted condition when brought to
the top. As each came to the surface the
women and children crowded around to
see who they were, and those who recog-
nized their relatives overwhelmed them
with caresses.

retired man, the Secretary of War shall
ascertain if such person receives pay
from the government in any other off
cial capacity, and if such is the case he

English Yachtsmen Pleased.
LONDON, December 14.-Secretary
Bunce conveyed the news of the accept
ance of the challenge for a race for the
Americas cup to Mcssrs. Kersey and
Grant of the Royal Yacht Squadron, and
other yachtsmen, all of whom expressed
their delight at the chance afforded to
capture the trophy. Nothing remains
now but to fix the date of the race. It
has been learned that several
other yachts are deing built TO accom-
pany the Valkyrie, Lord Dunraven's
yacht, to America. These yachts will
enter other races in America, and the
season of 1898 promises to be a memora-
BILE one in yachting annals.
Lord Dunraven was seen this afternoon
He said that his private secretary had
informed him by telegraph of the ac-
ceptance Of the challenge. He added
that he had given orders to Mr.. Watson
to hurry along the building of the Val
kyrie, and that he hoped the yacht would
be completed by April. Lord Dunraven
expressed himself as sanguine that the
race would be good one, and said he
would not miss seeing it for the world.
He further said that he believed yacht
racing to be the finest sport in existence.
The conditions of the race were clearly
expressed and he believed that no mis-
conception could grow out of them.
