We are sellers of good shoes.

shoes. We also insist upon hav-

Cigar Buyers.

"Give me three good cigars" he said, throwing down 0 dollar. The cigar man handed out three cigars and seven ty-fve cents in change, which the cus- toner pocketed and then walked away "How did you know he wanted three for-a-quarter cigars?" I asked. "Why," answered the dealer, "he said good cigars, didn't heP'' ''Yes, but those arc not the best cigars you have" "Course not, but fellows always say good cigars when they want three for quarter. If they want higher-priced cigars they walk up to the counter and call out the name of the brand or the price they want to pay, so's everybody can hear them. They'll say: Some of your per fectos, please,' or Are these Garcias fresh?' or Your best imported brand, , or Three of my usual kind,' or some thing like that If they want five-cent cigars they walk in quietly and tap the case over the box containing the kind they want without saying a word, and if they want two-fers or stogas they come in slyly when there's no one else around. But when fellow wants plain three-for-a-quarter he just steps up and says: '"Three good ones,' and every cigar man knows what She means.'' .''- Buffalo Express.

THE treasury department has reported to congress that more than $7,000, ,000 is needed to meet the pension payments for the months of May and June, alone. AS there is no money available in the treasury vaults, and, so far, not much prospect of any in sight, this will prob ably account for the fact that when parties armed with pension cheques presented themselves, last week, at the pension office, in New York, they found the premises "closed for the present. for repairs!"-but were privately in formed that they could get their cheques F'liquidated" at a certain sa- loon further up the street. On applica- tion, however, to this source of relief though a sign inscribed "pension cheques cashed here," was conspicu- ously displayed-it turned out that such accumulation could only be obtained through the medium of liberal dis count, in the form of "drinks," ordered and paid for. What beautiful ilIustra- tion of the methods of the ''party of great moral ideas"

TO BE PUSHED THROUGH.

The Senate Docket VIII be Clear of ApprO-
 PriatiOn Bills Before the Conventions. \
 WASHINGTON, May 23.-It is the pur- pose of the Senate Appropriations Com mittee, if possible, to clear the Senate docket of all pending great appropria- tion bills before its members separate to attend the national conventions of their respective parties. They have only seven more working days in which to accomplish this.
 On Tuesday of next week, by tacit consent, a truce bill will be proclaimed, to last through both the Minneapolis and Chicago conventions, each side agreeing not to press important legisla- tion during the absence of members of the other party.
 It is possible that the rapid work of last week, when both the Naval Appro- priation and the River and Harbor bills were pushed through, may be almost equalled during the coming week by the passing of the Pension and Diplomatic and Consular Appropriation bills, which are the only two now bstors the Senate.

WHILE the pine tree is no longer the backbone of Maine's lumber industry, there is a surprising quantity of that timber in the state. About fifty mil lion feet of pine are surveyed in the docks of Bangor every year, and, al. though much of it is second growth or sapling pine, there is liberal sprink- ling of the old-time forest monarchs. Even along the coast are patches of good merchantable pine, anG a Port land boxmaler who uses two million feet annually gets his supply from with. in ten miles of that seaport.

Hot Pursuit of the Florida Train Robbers
 They Will be Lyncheh If Caught.
 JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May 23.-It is very probable that the murderers who at tempted to rob the express car on tn e Jacksonville, Tampa & Key West Rail road near Monroe Junction Saturday morning, will be apprehended. Incited by the coldbloodedness of the outrage and by the reward offered by Governor Fleming, most diligent search is being made for the desperadoes, and the numer- ous threats of lyn ching uttered on every side show how intense the feeling is against the murderers of Saunders.
 Two sheriff's posses have captured six suspects, but 1t Is not known whether there is any direct evidence again st them. Two others are being trailed by trained bloodhounds, and it is expected that they will run them down in 8 short time.
 Citizens in the neighborhood are wrought up to the highest pitch at the atrocity of the outrage, and should the murderers be captured 1t is highly prob- able that they will meet summary jus tice before they can be lodged in jail.

IS IT GOOD?
SEWER MEDICINE co. BRIDGEPORT, CONN,

Many people have asked this question, many are asking it now, because they know they need Spring Tonic and Blood Purifier, and want the best. To any such we can positively answer and truthfully that our DANDELIoN COMPOUND is the best blood purifier, tonic and alternative now known. The reasons are that in com position it is entirely vegetable, it's ingre- dients are all carefully selected, it is made on the most approved scientific principles, and is in all respects perfectly reliable, safe, and meritorious production.
 We know of many who are now using it with decided benefit, and to their own en- tire satisfaction, but we have yet to hear of one case where it has failed to do all and exactly that which we claim for it. We neither admire nor use sensational ad- vertising, but aim to state the exact truth.

How to Get Ahead.

Some people think that it is necessary to be mean and. miserly in order to be come wealthy. There never was a greater mistake. Any man of common intelligence may be prosperous if he chooses to labor diligently and faithful. 1y in calling which he thoroughly understands Of course, prudence is indispensable to success-prudence, mind, not niggard meanness. The man who, commencing with little or nothing has resolved to rise, must also resolve to sacrifice nothing to appearance. He cannot gain one true friend, nor obtain any popularity that will be really use ful to him in his efforts to- achieve in dependence, by endeavoring to seem tc have that which he has not. The world is shrewder than pretension supposes il to be. It is a curious world-loolzs sharply into peoples private affairs and if an individual makes a show be- yond his means, soon discovers and dis. trusts him. No one who has fortune to make, or who desires to receive ever a moderate competence, can afford tc incur the worlds distrust. Therefore if you are at the foot of the ladder anG want to mount, go up in your work-daJ guise, and don't affect purple and fin, linen

Train Hands of the Cambria Iron Conn
 pany Will be Ordered Out. JoHNsTowN, Pa., May 23.-E. P. Sar- geant, Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Bremen and President of the Supreme Councils of the United Order of Railway Employees, and P. H. Morrissey, Vice-Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, have carefully examined the grievances which the trainmen in the employ of the Cambria Iron Company presented to General Manager Price. It was decided that all Brotherhood men should be withdrawn from the Cambria Works at once. The men will be taken care of by the organizations and positions will be secured for them as rapidly as possible.
 The Cambria Company is to be adver- tised in the Brotherhood's magazine as 8 non-Union organization. A rule will be made absolute that no trainman who works in the Cambria yards from this date can ever become @ member of any of the organizations.
 While this action will not result in any stoppRge of the works, 1t will pre- vent many of the best trainmen in the country from accepting employment with the company.

I WAR SHIP GOES DOWN
The Brazilian Cruiser Solimoes
 Lost With I23 Men.
FvE SAVED FROM TIE WRECK

The Vessel Struck Rock or the Coast
 of Uruguay-An Immense Hole Stove in
 Her side--HEarines and Sailors Drowned
 Like Rats.
 MoNTEv1DEo (via Galveston, Texl May 23-A fearful disaster has over. taken the Brazilian war ship Solinoes, off this coast. She was dispatched from Rio Janeiro some days since to act as convoy to the hotilla which carried troops to aid in Quelling the rebellion in the Brazilian State of Matto Crosse.
 The hotilla had come on ahead of the Solimoes and was up the river awaiting her arrival in order to proceed by way of the Paraguay river to the scene of the revolt. At the same time that the flo- tilla left Rio land force was sent by rail. It was to go to the end of the rail- road route and the march into Matto Crosse, where after being joined by the troops from the hotilla, the combined forces were to attack the capital of the State.
 The crew of the war ship numbered 127 men. As sine was fitted out for ac- tive service it is probable that she did not carry any small boats. Owing to the dangerous nature of the low and SduOJ OGu&u&y2n 901 COa0V SuS M@0 Q pilot aboard.
 Just as the Solimoes was off Polonio Island, near Point Oegra Castillos, she struck 8 rock violently bows on. The sea was very rough at the time. All the crew were under matches, except four sailors and the pilot. Two of the sailors acted as lookouts; the other two were at the wheel.
 Through the immense hole made in her hull the water rushed so fast and furious that the vessel sank almost inn mediately. Of all her crew only the four sailors who were on deck saved their lives. The pilot also escaped. One hundred and twenty three lives were lost.
 The unfortunate men did not even get 8 chance to gain the deck. They were drowned like rats in hole. As the water poured in the victims seemed ia- stantly to recognize their danger, and made frantic but unavailing effort to dash open the hatches. Their cries were heartrending.
 The scene of the disaster-Polonio Isl- and-is northeast of Cape Santa Maria, which is near the mouth of the Rio de la Plata. The Solimoes was two turreted monitor, built of iron in England and launched in 1875. Her displacement was s, 700 tons. She had 8 double bot tom, but there were few watertfght compartments below the water line, and when the hole was knocked in her hull she went down like 8 cracked iron pot.

SOME alarm has been created among the republicans who have been doing lots of shouting about the successful manner in which the administration had secured acceptances from Germany, Great Britain, Austria, Hungary and Italy to take part in the proposed inter national monetary conference, by an of- ficial letter from the state department informing Secretary Foster, in answer to an inquiry, that not a single accep- tance had yet been received from any of the countries to which invitations were sent. Anti-Harrison republicans are charging that misleading information has been purposelY given out to help MT Harrison secure the nomination.

THK little fleet with which Columbus discovered America Is being reproduced in Spain. The caravel "Santa Maria" is being built of partly original material in charge of the royal naval arsenal, and workmen are busy day and night to complete it in time for the opening of the Worlds fair, Chicago. The smaller caravels ''ryina" and t'Pinta" are at the expense of the United States and will cost about $30,00O. These three vessels will be manned by Spanish sailors, and start on the day when, 400 years ago, Columbus left the harbor of Palos. They will be escorted by Spanish con- voy of war vessels. Thus they will cross the ocean.
