A Prominent italian.
" Y A9rertissr

A
An italian who wields an immense in
fluence among his compatriOts in this
city and throughout the country is Mr..
Carlo Barsotti, banker and owner OF II
PTOQreSSO ItdlO-AmericGlIo. He came
from italy about thirteen years ago,
and started his paper, which is the pio-
neer OF Italian dailies in this country.
For some years he had monopoly of
OF the field, and the paper gained
such a firm fiOOthold among the
Italians that il has not suffered TO
any extent from the strong competition
that has since arisen. Ms. BarSOtti is
said 70 have amaSsed handsome fort
une. The better part of it has been
made IA the banking business, but the
newspaper has always been valuable
coa3'1tor of the bank. During its
thirteen years Of existence, the PrOgreSso
has not imbibed much Of the spirit of
American journalism. 1t is run after
the style of Italian papers, containing a
great deal Of solid information, per-
hsps, but altogether too heavy, accord
ing 20 our idea Of newspapers.

B isn't TIE usual ,cay

its Just the reverse-to pay a
patient when you can't cure him.
Nevertheless, that's what's done by
the proprietors of DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy. They promise to
pay you $500 if they can't cure
your catarrh, no matter how bad
the case. 1t isn't mere talk-it's
business. You can satisfy yourself
of it, if you're interested. And you
ought to be, if you have catarrh.
It's faith in their medicine that's
behind the offer. 1t has cured
thousands Of the worst cases, where
everything else failed. You can be
cured, too. If you can't, you get
the money. They're willing to take
the risk--you ought to be glad to
take the medicine.
It's the cheapest medicine you
can buy, because it's guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned.
You only pay for The good you
get. Can you ask more9
That's the peculiar plan all DR..
Pierce's medicines are sold on.

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 9.--Thc house
has passed bill appropriating SG4, 200

INDECENT widows OF such shall be entitled

this rate exceeds the appropriation, in

with the l,2SO now on. If this turns
out true the amount each will receive
will be about So. The bill makes the
