 THE New York Herald has been get ting the views of congressmen-elect rela- tive to special session to convene March 4th. The southern members generally favor the call and the prompt repeal of the Mckinley bill. The majority of those who reply is slightly against an extra session. The general trend of republican expression is that the Mckinley bill is well enough, but if it is to be repealed let the party favoring it take action and assume responsibility at once. The re- peal can do no more harm to business than it's impending certainty, and the sooner a different system is put on trial, the sooner it's merits as compared with the old can be judged.

PRESENCE OF MIND.

The residence of Mrs. Margaret
HOerr, los S. Fifth street, had a mar
row escape from burning yesterday af-
ternoon between the hours of five and
six o'clock. The servant girl under
took to fill small gasoline stove
without being sure that the light was
eXtinguished, and as consequence it
flashed up and sent the burning fluid
over the girl and upon the kitchen
floor. The girl ran out upon the lawn
which had just been wet down, and
rolled upon it until the fire in her
clothing was extinguished. She was
considerably burned about the hands
and face. Mrs. Hoerr happened to
recollect an item which she had re-
Gently read in a paper, that milk will
extinguish burning gasoline while
water only adds to the fuel. She
snatched up pail of milk and threw
it upon the fire which was then
burning fiercely on the floor, and ex-
tinguished it. The adjacent
door, woodwork and curtains were
burned, and the heat was so great
that the paint upon the opposite side
of the room peeled off. But for Mrs.
Hoerr's presence of mind a bad fire
might have resulted. AS it was, the
damage was slight.

in the old Manderfeld store on Cher
ry street for a few weeks. Mr.. Wright
will do landscape work and Mr..
O'Keefe will follow the line of work
in which he excells, figure and ami
NAL painting.
AS an artist the latter gentleman
needs no recommendation from us, as
his work speaks for itself The for
mer gentleman comes highly recon-
mended for the excellence of his work.
He is simply out on sketching tour
and takes this means of helping out
his expenses.

for securing some fine pictures at eX-
ceedingly low prices, and it is to be
hoped that our citizens will avail
themselves of this sale.

A NINETEENTH CENTURY WONDER
A Home Treatment for Drunkenness
A Speedy and Permanent Cure Guar.
anteed. A Marvellous Discovery
Which Promises Great Things
for, Mankind.

The majority of medical men be-
lieve that drunkenness is a disease
within the power of proper medicine
the difficulty hereto has been to find
the remedy, but happily, the remedy
that does the work effectively has
been discovered, and thanks to DR..
Haines.
DR.. Haines' Golden Specific is a
marvellous remedy which in few days
will clothe the drunkard in his right
mind and present him to his family
and friends saved man-saved en-
tirely from the slavery of strong drink.
We are in receipt of many, many let
tiers which close their greeting in
these words: 81 have seen it's effects
it is not fiction, it is reality" "May
God bless your efforts" fail to find
language to express my gratitude. !"
with heartfelt thanks to God and
Golden Specific" &c. The accummu-
lated mass, of testimony from men
who have been cured by it, in the diff
ferent stages of the disease, even
from men who were once considered
physical and mental wrecks, made so
by strong drink, and this, too, after
fair trial of all advertised sure cures"
is suaicientproof of the real merits
of DIR. Haines' Golden Specific.
One of the features which COM
mends this priceless remedy to the
public is that it is purely home treat
ment. Drinking men have not the
money nor the disposition to go to
costly sanatariums either to die there
or return home 'incurable," money
all gone. The Specific may be kept
in the house, and the mother, wife,
daughter or sister may be the healing
angel by putting it into the tea, cof-
fee or food of the patient, not to be
detected by him. In the course of
short time, the smell of liquor which
in his slavery was so exhilirating be-
comes nauseating, and not knowing
the reason why it is, he hates the
thing he once loved. Temperance
lectures, environment, pledges, moral
suasion are all of them helpful, but
altogether will not effect the cure
sure to be wrought by DR.. Haines'
Golden Specific. BY all means secure
the 48-page book of particulars, free,
from the Golden Specific Co., Cincin-
natl, Ohio.
