The latest advices from Honolulu
indicate that the excitement is still
at a high pitch, that Willis, the
American minister, is still keeping
the government on the ragged edge
Of anxiety and that a very little
aggravation would set the people
fighting in the streets of the capital

itous sacrifice Of life to crafty the

SAILED THE SEAS 50 YEARS.
One of His Experiences,

For t~hirty-eight years Capt. Loud followed
the sea, most of that time as master of a YES
sci, and upon retiring from the water was ap-
pointed by the Secretary Of the United States
Treasury to superintend the seal fisheries in
Alaska, which position he held five years. He
relates one experience as follows:
For several years | had been troubled with
general nervousness and pain in the region
of my heart. My greatest affection was
s.eeple sness; 1t was almost impossible at any
time to obtain rest and sleep. Having seen
DIR. Miles remedies advertised began using
Nervine. After taking a small quantity the
benefit received was so great that l was posi-
lively alarmed. thinking the remedy con-
tanned opiates which would finally be injurf-
Gus to me; but on being assured by the drug
gist that it was perfectly harmless, contin-
ned it together with the Heart Cure. Today
| can conscientiously say that DR.. Miles Re
storative Nervine and New Heart Cure did
more for me han anything / had ever taken.
! had been treated by eminent physicians
in New York and San Francisco without benz
eft. l owe my present good health to the
judicious use OF these most valuable remedies,
and heartily recommend them to all afflicted
as 1 was."-Capt. A. P. Loud, Hampden, Me.
DIR. Miles Restorative Nervine and New Cure
are sold by all druggists on a positive Euaran-
tee, or by DR.. Miles Medical Co.. ,Elkhart,
Ind on receipt Of price. 81 per bottle. or six
bottles for Is, express prepaid. They are
free from all Opiates and dangerous drugs.

The general manager Of the
Santa Fe railroad is quoted by the
Topeka Capital as saying that the
receivership will greatly improve
the physical condition Of the prop
erty. AS it will not be necessary to
pay the installment Of interest due
on the LIST Of January, the manager
says the road will be able to secure
new rolling stock and ''build new
depots and other station facilities"
This sounds encouraging, but it is
best not to grow too enthusiastic
over the prospects. An attempt
is usually made to convince the
public that a receivership is a good
thing for a corporation, when as a
matter Of fact it is the last resort of
a harassed management. It does
no good to try to deceive the
people in matters Of this kind.
The whole blunt truth might as
well be told at once.-Journal.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1893-12-29

Merchants can pluck a leaf from the
expression of a New York man, who, in
announcing his suspension, remarked:
1.-The mistake I made was my failure to
advertise my change Of location. Had
l used printers ink l would not have
had to suspend" When times are hard
as they are now, printers ink is espe-
cially needed to help trade along. It's
the man who isn't afraid to make a
splurge and who keeps ever before the
eyes of the public his attractive bargains
that makes a success in business.

GOVERNOR WAITE is nothing il
not persistent in his purpose. He
has convened the, Legislature Of
Colorado in extra session to coun-
teract the depression in the silver
industry. The governor evidently
thinks that Colorado is destined to
lead i'll the regeneration Of silver
coinage, and he recommends that
the Legislature declare legal tender
any silver dollar, foreign as we'll as
domestic, that contains not less
than Bill grains Of pure silver.
He PROFESSIONALLY knows that
Colorado has no constitutional
authority to make anything but the
gold and silver coins of the United
States a legal tender for debts. but
provisions of constitutional law
seem to carry no weight with him
whatever. The Colorado legislat-
ure may find sufficient state matters
demanding its attention to justify
an extra session, but it will do well
to leave these questions Of natioal
finance for the determination of
congress.

If two-thirds Of the people Of
Oregon are without employment
and one-third Of them are without
means of support, according to
Governor Pennoyer's open letter,
Oregon must be an excellent state
to keep away from. But of course
the governor stretched the truth
Just as that other pop imbecile
Waite did in his bloody brides
outpouring.-Journal.

Sioud Upon the Honeymoou Of Mr..

Inc residence Of William A. Carrie. st
oeorgetown. south Of the CITY. vas bur-
kiarized some time Friday afternoon and
soous 800 worth Of Mr.. Carries personal
enects stolen. With rare consideration for
newly married coupis the burglars lett
she sfverware and many wedding pres-
ents where they could easily be found.
Mrs Carrie has been entertaining friends
AZ her handsome residence for several
days, and Friday afternoon the entire
party. including the hostess, took advan-
tage OF the beautiful weather and came to
the city. o. returning home in the even
ing noshing Was noticed out OF order about
the house except back window had been
open. OF course. such thing might have
happened before the party went to town,
30 II caused no special comment. The sill.
yerware was on the sideboard as usual. the
wedding presents occupied their accus-
toned places, and Mr. and Mrs. Carrie re
tired unconscious OF the bombsheIl await
Ing them yesterday morning. Mr.. earle
thought he would shave before coming
into town 70 transact business, but the
razor was not in its accustomed place He
thought Ii strange, and commenced to
look around for the toilet case. IL was
gone. Then he peeped in the closet,
and saw 70 his dismay that his dress suit,
his sunday 10 to meeting suit" his
extra business suit one or two odd coats
and several pairs OF trousers had taken
wings There was no doubt then as to
what had happened, and h. made quick
start for his jewelry case which he had
left on the msntel. II was open and
showed evidences of having been rified.
Mr.. Carries diamond studs, clear white
stones. his gold cuff buttons and pair of
old-iashioned gold sleeve buttons were
gone. The bureau drawers and q trunk.
that was unlocked. had been opened, but
so far as was observed yesterday morning
nothing was taken. The burglars went
into the next room. where one Of the
sleeve buttons was accidentally dropped.
Nothing was disturbed, and il Is probable
that the man on guard outside the house
gave his partner warning that it was time
TO get out, otherwise the wedding presents
would doubtless have disappeared also.
The case has not been given to the police,
but an investigation is under way.

Power OF the Eye.

Michael Angelo from his infancy
showed strong inclination for paint
ing, and made such rapid progress in
it that he is said to have been able ut
the age of fourteen to correct the
drawings of his master, Dominica
Grillandai.
When he was oil old man, one of those
drawings being shown to him, he
modcstly said:
'In my youth l was better artist
than l am now"
His quickness of eye was wonderful.
He used to say that sculptor should
CARR his compass in his eye.
''Thc hands, indeed" said he, edo
the work, but the eye judges" p"
The artists power of the eye was SO
certain that, having once ordered n
block of marble to be brought to him,
he told the stonecutter to cut away
some particular parts of the marble
and to polish others. Very soon an
exquisitely fine figure started out from
the block. The stonecuttcr, surprised,
beheld it with admiration.
"Wcll, my friend, said Michael An
gelo. "whnt do You think of it?"
'I hardly know what to think OF
it, answered the astonished mechanic !;
cit is IL very fine figure to me. I have
intiuite obligations to you, sir, for
thus making me discover in myself a
talent which never knew possessed. {"
