FIRST BLOOD FOR PECK.
One of His Cases Dismissed Till the Others
Are Heard From.


Are Heard From.
Albany, n. Y, Oct. 2+-Labor Com
missioner Peck's case came up in the police
court before Judge Guttmann this morning.
Mr. Meegan, counsel for Messrs Peck and
Rodgers, and Norton Chase for the presecu-
ton were present. Mr. Meegan moved that
the case be dismissed on the ground that
there was an indictment pending in the
Court of Sessions for the same charge on
which the police court charges are based.
Mr Chase said these cases were not identi-
cal. Even if they were, Judge Clute had
already held that the two actions could be
continued if they did not interfere with
each other.
Judge Guttmann replied that as the Dis
trict Attorney WAS not present, and in view
of similar action now pending in the
Court of Sessions, he would dismiss this
case. The case in the Court of Sessions
comes up before Judge Clute November T.
The action brought on behalf of E Ellerv
Anderson is now in the hands of Judge Ed

THE LAXATIVE GUMDRGp.

This new cathartic is the most de-
lightful form of a laxative that has
ever been offered to the public, 1t is
in the form of an ordinary gum drop,
and it has no medicinal taste, and can
be eaten like a piece of confectionery.
The results, too, are pleasant. II IS
the most complete remedy for dyS-
pepSia, summer troubles, biliouSness,
headache, and all those maladieS for
which the ordinary cathartic is pre-
scribed. II acts as a gentle Stimulant,
not violent, but perfectly safe and GER
tain. In this respect it is far superior
to the ordinary pill with the addition
al merit of not being disagreeable to
take, 1t is Just the thing for children
on this account and for people will,
weak stomachs. These gumdrops are
put up in packages, the small ones
selling at ten cents, the large ones at
twenty-five cents. If your druggist
does not have them we will send them
to you by mail on receipt of the price;
but we prefer to have you get theio OF
your druggist.

Liver, Stomach, and Bowels, by

do it in just the right way, too
by using Natures own methods.
That's why they're better than the
dreadful, old fashioned pills with
their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're the smallest and the cas-
lest to take +; only one little Pellet
is needed for gentle laxative
three for cathartic. They cleanse
and regulate the system thoroughly
but it's done easily and naturally.
Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of
the Liver, Stomach and Bowels are
prevented, relieved, and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give

SHIRT WAISTS.
Pink Madras Is Especially Popular just Mt
Present.

Pink Madras Is Especially Popular just at
Present.
Cotton cheviots and Madras or zephyr
ginghams are quite as fashionable as
silks for shirt waists this season, and
are far less costly. Pink Madras is es-
pecially liked for these shirts, and rivals
the long popular blue, pink shirt with
a black blazer and skirt being thought
suitable for both young and middle
aged women, blonde and brunette alike.
Haberdashers make these cotton shirts
precisely like those worn by men, with
shallow yoke, the fullness gathered
just below the throat, and wide box
pleat down the middle. These are pre-
ferred to the stiffly starched shield-shape
bosoms and are made to button down
the entire front. A turned-over collar
is attached to band more or less high, as
is most becoming the wearer. Wide
cuffs are buttoned by linked sleeve
buttons of enamel or of coiled gold.
Ladies' tailors prefer making these
shirt waists with drawing-string
along the belt line, and frill from five
to ten inches below that may be worn
inside or outside of the skirt, as is most
convenient. Wash silks with tiny specks
or stripes and plain China silk waists
have voluminous jabot with sewage
edges down the front, or else q large
cravat bow is worn of the silk cut bias
and three or even four fingers wide.
More fanciful waists have yoke, or
collar, bertha, or bretelles, and cuffs of
the open-patterned guipure laces that
are now sold much more cheaply than
when first introduced. Yellow is in
great favor for silk skirts, and is seal,
loped with black button-hole stitches
on the jabot, collar and cuffs. Change
able surah guimpes or shirts are popular
with wool skirts that have high
corselet or a Swiss belt Remnants of
foulard figured on white grounds make
very stylish blouses for wearing with
dark skirts, and these are initiated in
French cambrics of similar coloring and
designs -Harper's Bazaar.

PEANUT CULTIVATION.
The Varied Uses of the Nut--Its oil a yalu-
able Commodity.

The Varied Uses of the Nut--Its Oil Valu-
able Commodity.
The present uses of this valuable nut
are varied, but not to such an extent
that its commercial possibilities have
been fully developed. The following
general outline affords but slight in
dication of its economic value:
The commercial supply abroad is fur
nished, almost exclusively, by the
French and Portuguese colonies on the
western coast of Africa. Marseilles is
the largest market in the world-han-
ding from fifty to sixty thousand TONS
hulled, each year. Norfolk, Va, is the
Marseilles of America. This market
annually receives from one million five
hundred thousand 1880, OOO) to two
million $4,000, 0O0) bushels.
The flavor of the foreign-growth nuts
limits their use to manufacturing pur-
posts-the oil entering extensively into
the manufacture of soap. The adulter-
alton of salad-oils with peanut-oil is d
common and profitable practice, as is,
also, the aduiteration of coffee and
chocolate with the nut
With the production of SO valuable
an oil-nut it is possible for us to discon-
tinue our large importation of salad
oils and produce our own, with greatly
reduced cost to the consumer.
During the fiscal year ending June 30,
1891, we imported 6O5,O0 gallons of
olive Salad oil, at cost of S1.20 per
gallon-making the aggregate value
S733, 900.
One bushel of peanuts will produce,
under cold pressure, one gallon of oil.
The cost of producing the nuts is forty
cents per bushel, including labor; add
to this the cost of having the oil ex-
pressed, and allowing for a liberal
profit to the producer and retailer, we
could place on our tables an oil for
forty cents less per gallon, which equals
in every respect the olive-peanut oil
that we now consume. 1t is an alb
surdity that we should waste thousands
of dollars III importing an oil that is SC

CONCERNING DYNAMITE.
How the Terrible Explosive Is Made n
Handled.


How the Terrible Explosive Is Made ana
Handled. 4
Very few people have correct idea
of what dynamite is, of what II is made,
and the uses to which it is put. TO the
French belongs the honor of its dis
covery and its first practical use.
Nitro-glycerine is the force of all
high explosives. Dynamite is the name
most usually given to these explo-
sives, though other means are some-
times used
dynamite is simply nitro-glycerine
mixed with various ingredients. Nitro.
glycerine is made by mixing sulphuric
and nitric-acid with sweet give
crime, the same that is used by
the ladies' to prevent chapped hands.
Mixing the acids and glycerine is where
the great danger lies in making nitro
glycerine. The mixing tank, or agitator
as tits called by dynamite makers, is a
large steel tank, filed inside with many
coils OF lead pipe, through which, while
the mixing is in progress, constant
How OF ice wateris maintained. This
How OF ice water is used to keep the tenn
perature of the mix below eighty-five
degrees,as above that point it would ex-
plode, and hole in the ground would
mark where the factory had been The
nitro-glycerine isstored in large earthen-
ware tanks, which are usually sunk in
the ground to guard against blows or
severe conclusion.
The other ingredients for making
dynamite are: Nitrate of soda, which
is found only in Chill, carbonate Of
magnesia and wood pulp.
Dynamite is put up in paper shells
usually an inch and quarter in d.
amcter and eight inches in length, and
weighs about half pound to each shell
or cartridge. 1t has largely taken the
place of black powder for blasting, as it
is many hundreds of times stronger
and consequently more economical. 1t
is used chiefly in mining all kinds of
ores, coal and rock, and submarine
blasting and railroad building. With
out its aid many railroads, especially
those crossing the Rocky mountains,
could not have been constructed with
out it He'll Gate in New York harbor
could not have been destroyed, and
without it the miner, at prices now
paid for mining ores, could not earn his
bread.
Dynamite will not explode from any
ordinary fall or jar; it will burn with
out explosion, and freezes at forty two
degrees, ten degrees above ordinary
freezing point. The bomb of the an
archist is made of metal or glass and
filed with pare nitro>glycerine ar
ranged so as to explode by severe con-
tact with any hard object. These
bombs are, of course, never made by a
reputable dynamite factory.
Five or six millions of dollars are in
vested in the manufacture of dynamite
in the United States, and its use is con-
stantly on the increase. The fumes of
nitro-glycerine produce intense head
ache, which can be cured by taking a
very small dose of it internally.-De.
troit Free Press.
