OF consideration are nostrums of which it
is asserted-and there are many such--that
they cure Immediately bodily ailments of
long standing There are none such that
can. Chronic disorders cannot be instan-
taneously removed. Continuity in tho use
of a genuine medicine. such as Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, will eradicate chronic
physical evils. Not the least of these last
in the force of its opposition to medicine Is
constipation, to the removal of which, il
persisted in, the Bitters is particularly
adapted. Construction of the bowels is a
complaint which should be dealt with early
and systematically. So are its usual at
tendents, liver complaint and dyspepsia.
For these, for malaria, rheumatism, kidney
trouble, aud more recently ia grippe
this highly and professionally commended
medicine Is an undoubted specific. Nothing
can excel it, moreover, as means of I'M

Messrs. +. j. Cheney & Co.--Gentlemen:
Il have been in the general practice of
medicine for most 40 years, and would say
that in all my practice and experience have
never seen preparation that could pre-
scribe with as much confidence of success
as can Halls Catarrh Cure manufactured
by you. Have prescribed it great many
times and its effect is wonderful, and would
say in conclusion that have yet to find a
case of Catarrh that it would not cure, if
they would take it according to directions.
Yours truly,

Silver Men Not DISCOURAGED.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 25.-It Is ascer-
tanned, from talks with members of congress
who attended the meeting of the national sill
yer committee, that it was perfectly harmoni-
Gus, and that the interest and demand for
silver legislation by the country shows no
abatement. Indeed, the hope is expressed
that an opportunity might yet be offered dur
ing the present session for some action by
congress on the Bland bill, or if that is not
possible, on some other measure for the full
reconciliation of silver.
The proposition for an international mon
etary conference to consider the silver ques-
ton, received little attention from those who
addressed the meeting; and, indeed, it was
only incidentally mentioned. There is no
confidence felt by the free coinage men in
the favorable outcome of any international
monetary conference. Any proposition for
q conference that would not be allowed to
consider the free coinage of silver would, it
is believed, be Indignantly rejected by the
free silver men.
There was no general expression on the
part of the persons present that could be
fairly interpreted to favor the immediate
formation of third party, as has been sug-
gested. A number of strong expressions
were heard, however, from men who declared
that they would not vote for presidential
candidate in the coming election who was
against free coinage.
The Bi-metallic league was also topic of
discussion, and the general impression was
that such league should be formed.

Real Calamity In Texas.


SAs Antonio, TEX, April 22.-For three
years the counties of Starr, Hidalgo, Porteas,
Seapata, Mexico and Duval have been sub
jected to drouth of such severity az to render
the production of the necessaries of life i'm
possible. The season for planting has ceased,
and the crops having been killed by frost,
there is no hope for relief, unless summer
rains should secure light fall crop. The
loss of stock, depreciation in value on all
kinds of property, inability of ranchmen to
procure money for payment of taxes, the
prevalence of smallpox throughout the Sec
ton extending through San Ingacio in Sea-
pata county to Rio Grande City in Starr
county and the baleful effects of the Cara
revolution combined have produced destitu-
ton hitherto unknown. Some of the people
are using fresh meat of cattle that have died
from disease or starvation and others are dry
ing flesh for future use. The losses on cattle,
the principal industry of this section, are es-
timated at eight per cent and in Nueces
county alone 5000 head have died.
The famine district contains population
estimated at 1900 to 10000 people, and
probably one-fourth of this number require
assistance, while the resources of the balance
of the population are only adequate to main
tain themselves and families.
The people have appealed to the state in
vain, and another appeal is published, signed
by leading citizens and addressed to the pub
lie, asking for contributions of corn and
other supplies, to be addressed TO the central
committee, Starr county, care B. E. Muno,
county judge.

Another Shake.

SAN FRANc1sco.-Slight earthquake shocks
visited San Francisco at 9:4S this morning.
The vibrations were north and south, lasting
twenty seconds.
Disturbances were felt at Sacramento,
Biggs, Woodland and Chico, in this state,
and Reno, Nevada.
At Biggs eight distinct vibrations were felt,
clocks stopped and plaster fell. In Wood
land the shock was more severe than on
Monday night, when a number of brick build
iugs lost their chimneys and walls cracked.
This mornings shock caused about ten
feet of the fire wall of the Capitol hotel to
collapse and fall to the sidewalk. Other
brick buildings were also damaged.
A report from Chico says lamps in build
ings all over the city were set swinging. The
ceilings in some places were cracked and the
clocks stopped.
At BenicIa windows ratified and buildings
swayed, but no damage was done. Vacaville
reports an earthquake there, but not as severe
as those of preceding days. Some shaky
walls were demolished and number of cell
mgs cracked.
At Winters, California, the result of today 8
shock was the throwing down of the Masonic
hall, frail two story brick building, Grad
wick's building, Berthoet's two story stone
building, Humphrey Bros. one story stone
building, and generally demolished goods,
0xtures, etc.

of the conflict is meager, but it is known that

that the two parties would come into a con-

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 23.-The special
meeting of the national silver committee,

ton, held at st. Louis in November, 1889, is
in progress at the headquarters of the move
ment in this city, with Congressman A. J..

The object of the meeting is to consider the

REMAIN FAVORABLE.
Trade Continues Better But
No Marked Change.
Slight Advance In Cotton Helps
Business South-Money Markets
Remain With Ample SuppIy-Busf-
ness Failures Fewer Foreign
Trade Steadily Increasing.

New York, April 25.-R. 6. Dunn q Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says: Bad weather
has interfered with trade at many points and
delayed seeding at the west. In this section,
nevertheless, signs of improvement in dis
tribution continue, the prospects are bright
aud business is much greater than last year.
At the east the improvement is more mod
crate, and yet the aggregate of transactions
is quite large, though the season is not a busy
one for some important trades.
At the south there is distinctly better
feeling, owing to the advance in the price of
cotton; but much greater part of the crop
has been marketed and general business is
now but moderately affected.
General conditions of trade remain favor
able. Merchandise exports from New York
for the month show gain of but per cent,
while the imports for the month thus far ex-
coed by 10 per cent those of last April, which
was the largest ever known.
Wheat exports during the first half of the
week have been less than 100000 bushels,
against western receipts of 1,285, 900; but
prices have advanced Is cent, though exports
clined cent, coffee a cent, with pork prod
ucts steady; but oil has advanced ~ cents.
In cotton furthur advance of s cent has
occurred, notwithstanding the material de-
cline in recent exports.
Very little change is seen in the great in
dustries. The market for woolens is hardly
significant at this season, but rather better
than q year ago, most of the mills being well
employed.
The dress goods trade is mainly over and
there is less activity, while it is hardly time
for large business in fannels, and mems
woolens are not at pre-ent in large demand
but the knit goods trade continues encour-
aging. There is improved demand seen in
cotton goods, and the rubber works are bet
ter employed than usual at this season, and
at many points the building trades show ex-
ceptional activity.
The money market has not been at all dis
turbed, and the supply is ample at all points,
with better demand at some.
The business failures for the past week

The White RibbOnerS.

CHICAGO, April 25.-The White Ribboners,
or members of the Women's Christian Tenn

brating self-denial week. During this period
every member is expected to deny herself
something not necessary and contribute the
amount thus saved to the local, state, ma
tonal or worlds treasury.
Every local union is expected to hold a
meeting and decide by vote as to the use to
which the money thus saved shall be put. It
is estimated that last year the amount con-
tributed by this self-denial movement to the
different features of the organization ex-
ceeded quarter of million dollars.
