IT is claimed at Springfield that DIR
Winfield S. Bryan, a local electrician,
has made a discovery in the shape of a
practically self sustaining storage
battery. He has had long experience in
electrical matters. He has been work.
ing on his invention for two years, and
he now promises to work wonders in
the mechanical world. DIR Bryan's bat
terry is wholly different from anything
of the kind hitherto manufactured. Not
yet being protected by patents he will
not tell what his secret is, except in a
general way. A combination of chemi-
Gals, altogether new, is made, and their
action is so slow, yet strong, that the
current generated will last with con-
slant use, from estimates now made,
from three to five years. An ordinary
battery is good only for twelve hours.
The inventor throws little light on his
secret by saying that reversal of the
current causes rehabilitation of the
chemicals, thus strengthening the bat
terry. The battery was exhibited last
week in Cincinnati to representatives of
the Edison Photograph company, the
fan and motor company and repre-
sentative of the big four.

FEARS EOR PEARY.

Anxiety Also in Philadelphia for the
Kite Relief Expedition.
PHILADELPHIA, Sep. 7.-Secretary E. J.
Nolan of the Academy of Natural Sciences
said last night:
'If the reports of ice extending hun
dreds of miles south of Mccormick bay
are true, God help Peary and the Kite re-
lief party"
Considerable fear is felt in this city as
to the fate of the Arctic explorers owing
to the delayed arrival of the cryolite bark
Ivigtut from the Greenland port of the
same name.
Most serious fears are entertained that
the Kite has never reached Mccormick
bay, but is stuck in the ice. As she took
no extra supplies and it is believed she
will be forced to spend the winter in the
ice, it is>feared her provisions will be-
come exhausted before Jan. 1.

letter from Hon. James G. Blaine to
Chairman Marley, of the Republican
State Committee. has been made pub
BAR HAnBon, Me-, Sep. g, 1899.
'Hon. JOSEPH II. MANLEY:
mot being able, for reasons which l
have explained to you, to deliver public
speeches in this present campaign, L
take the liberty of submitting my views
on the issues which l regard as being
strongest for the Republicans to urge be-
fore the people:
''First-Ihe issue of the greatest con-
sequence is the tariff ON imports, and it
Will continue to be until settlement is
effected by majority so large that it will
be tantamount to general acquieSence.
The Republicans are aggressive on this
subject.
''Second-Whent the principle of recipro-
cal trade was first proposed to be intro
duced into the tariff system, the Demo-
Gratis showed much generous appreciation
of the question, and gave it their support
so long as Republicans refused to accept
it; but when the Republicans came to ap-
prove it the Democratic support vanished,
and, instead of favoring, we find the
Democratic National Convention passing
resolution hostile to the system. But,
in spite of Democratic opposition, we have
attained through reciprocity, new and
valuable trade and the system has dem
onstrated its many advantages.
''Third-With all its calamities the wal
brought us one great blessing-national
currency. 1t is matter of extraordinary
surprise that the Democratic Convention

Remarkable Story Told by the Young
Murderess- Trial Ended.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 27.-The de-
Tense in the Mitchell case closed it's
side today. Miss Mitchell, defendant,
was placed upon the stand and there
was great craining of necks by the
audience to obtain view of her. She
suffered no embarrassment, but
answered all questions coolly and ra-
tionally. She said she had known
Freda ever since she could remember
Defendant told of her following Freda
and of the latter winking at her with
her right eye which signified 81 love
your She told this coolly enough but
when she came to telling of following
Freda down the hill, saying she
"wanted to see her once more.n She
burst into tears. Then followed O. re-
markable scene, unparalleled in court
annals perhaps. This young girl,
without displaying the slightest re-
morse or even nervousness of manner,
told to the most trivial detail the
story ofhow and where she murdered
Freda. She said: II took the razor
out while going down the hill toward
the boat. When 1 reached Freda l
cut her with the razor. AS 1 cut her
throat she tried to say something.
I intended to cut Freda's throat and
theu mine but her sister 10 made me
mad by striking me with her UNI
brella, so after slashing at 10 fol-
lowed Freda and cut her again. All
L wanted to do was to cut her so as to
kill. l loved her better than any one
in the world" She expressed de-
sire to die now that Freda was no
more. Judge Duboise continued the
case until Friday morning when he
will charge the jury.

LUMPJAW IN CATTLE.
THE SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE
CONDUCTING EXPERIMENTS.
Two Hundred Cattle at Chicago Undergoing
Treatment by Iodide Of Potassium.
Treatment is Simple and Cheap and
Mr.. Rusk is Confident.

CHICAGO, July 27.-Secretary Rusk
arrived this morning, having come in
connection with an experiment he
takes lively interest in and which
he is now preparing to try on large
scale in the treatment of the disease
known as lumpjaw in cattle. The
disease is caused by fungus which
attacks various organs of the body
which, when it causes swelling ON the
head, is known in this country
as lumyjaw. 1t is quite COM
mon in some PARTS of Europe
as an affection of the tongue and has
recently been treated successfully by
internal administration OF iodide of
potassium. 1t has not been tried in
the form of disease known as lump
jaw until within the last two months,
when the inspector of the bureau of
industry made an experiment which
proved very successful. Secretary
Kusk expectss to have the treatment
tested on 200 head of cattle, which is
to determine whether # will cure in
cases or what proportion can be sue
cessfully treated. Tho iodide of pot
assium is given in doses of one to three
drachms dissolved in pint of water
1t is best administered before
feeding the cattle and the dose
should vary according to weight. If
the treatment proves successful it will
enable farmers to cure their cattle
when the disease appears, and thus
entirely prevent the losses which now
occur from it. The treatment is very
simple and can be applied without
danger by any farmer. The effect of
the medicine IN doses of this size is to
cause some catarrh, coughing and also
pealing off of the skin, but this does
not lead to any bad results and should
cause no uneasiness. Improvement
is generally noticed within ten days
and core is expected within q
month.

meant to disparage beau

attain.
"There is no beauty

age. Instead it encour-
ages beauty.
Pears Soap is the

A Wonderful Machine.

There is no doubt that man is fine
mechanism, but like every other ma
chine he wears out by friction. 1t is
said that he is born again every two
or three years. His body is virtually
remade from food. To retard this
making over is radically wrong, as a
man loses so much vitality in the de-
layed process that it takes a long time
to recuperate. The process of making
anew is so accelerated by purging
with Brandreth's Pills, that new
man, as it were, may be made in two
or three months, and the change in
the mechanism is such that the worn
out part is replaced by the new with
out the usual running down of the en-
tire machine. You don't have to stop
for repairs. Purge away with Bran
dreth's Pills the old, diseased and
worn out body. They are purely veg
etable. absolutely harmless, and safe
to take at any time.

for some time past Mcclellan has
aroused animosity amoung the Next

and law suits were pending. Hatred
is inferred as the motive for the crime.
