more blood, and so increasing the
agony; and an extra spoonful of blood
in the brain might set person crazy
with pain. Usually when the aching
head is gorged with blood, the feet and
hands are chilled, cold and shrunken,
and any application Of hot water to the
hands or feet which will relax the blood
vessels and so bring the blood away from
these congested centers, is likely to re-
lieve the distress. Nervous headache, or
pains caused by overaction and over
work, will frequently be cured by laying
bare the neck and leaning over basin
and pressing towel or sponge wrung
out of hot water on the back of the neck.
BY repeating this again and again, and
rubbing the neck, and Thoroughly rubbing
and sponging the base of the brain with
hot water, and afterwards spohging and
rubbing with cold water to avoid the dan
ger Vt taking cold, one will frequently
bring the blood to the surface and re-
lieve the congestion and pain. Sleep
lessuess may often be remedied in the
same manner; and then If linen head

lessness altogether. Bathing the face in
hot water, and sponging over and over
the temples, bathing the throat, and

dipped in hot water, and then cooling
the whole with fresh water, will not only
relieve suffering, but give the skin

as the liberal use of hot water. If per-

various forms, could drink plenty Of hot
water, and 90 into bathtub of water as
hot as he could bear it, remaining there
ten or fifteen minutes, thoroughly rub

of taking cold, the results would be
most favorable and comfortable.
Most Of our pains aud miseries are the
fruit Of our own misdoings, and the rem

BeaiIy on Trial.

PITTsBURG, Jan. 24.-George Beatty.
who is charged with being an accomplice
Of Hugh F. Dempsey at the Homestead
Steel Works during the strike by admin
istering poison to the non Union work
men, was placed on trial in the Criminal
court this morning Beatty, it will be
remembered, was arrested in Louisville
and brought back on requisItion papers
after hard battle.
At the opening of the case the defense
protested against the right of the com
monwealth, to stand aside jurors, with
out cause, and objected to the system of
the Kings Jury
Judge Stowe said he knew of such in
stances as the Kings Jury and agreed
with Judge Gibson, of the Supreme Court
that the Commonwealth would have no
chance, in time of great public excite
ment, of convicting any one if the right
to stand juors aside was denied.
The jury was then selected without
difficulty and the case was formally
opened.

THE taxpayers who imagine that there
is no milk in the Davis VS.. McGough
election contest .cocoanut Will he badly
deceived. That there is any question as
to who was elected or as to who VIII hoid
the office of Register and Recoder, there
is no doubt Daniel A. tMcGough was
honestly and triumphantly elected and
will hold the office until the end of his
term.
But when the county pays the costs
there Is no telling when an election con-
test will stop. 5. W. Davis who Is pre-
tending to contest the election OF d. a
McGough is the present Deputy Sheriff
Whether he is employed on salary or
farming the office on the shares, OF
course, we do not know. But we know
that the order made by Judge Barker on
Wednesday published in another column
by which every election board IN the
county will be notified of the order Will
bring a grist to the sheriff's official mil
that will he worth having. Several hun
dred dollars will be required to pay for
the service of this order alone. There
are seventeen election districts in the
CITY of Johnstown, and the mileage to
each one will be 81, 20 without counting
the costs for service. When the costs
for serving the order in every election
district in the county, is figured up the
people who will have to pay the piper
for making an attempt, although 1t be
only an abortion, of undoing in the courts
what the people did at the polls will find
that if the will of the people finally pre-
vailed the people had to pay the other
fellows very well for their trouble.
And this is only the beginning. 1t
will stop only when those who are push
ing it on find that the people will crush
out the political existence of those who
make election contests only for the pur-
pose of bleeding the taxpayers.

the trial of Hugh DempSe

In the trial of Hugh Dempsey, at
Pittsburg, last week, on a charge of con-
spiracy to poison the hands in the
Carnegie mills at Homestead during the
recent strike, a man named Gallagher
test fled that he and James Davidson
had been engaged by Dempsey to place
certain powder in the food, as cooks,
for $50 piece, which they did, and
many of the men were made sick.
The case attracted much attention, and
the court room was crowded during the
trial On Friday Judge Stowe delivered
his charge. The jury retired about noon.
At 10 O'Clock the jury came into court
and asked for further instructions as to
the third and fourth counts which charged
the deficient with conspiring with divers
unknown persons to administer poison.
The Court told the jury there was no
evidence to warrant conviction on these
counts, and the case turned on the first
count, which charged him with admin
istering poison with intent to commit
murder; that if the jury believed him
guilty of being implicated i'll the admin
istration of the poison he was guilty on
the first count. The jury retired upon
these further instructions. The jury re-
turued at l 30 with a verdict of guilty as
indeed. Dempsey is uuder 10000
bail. The extreme penalty for the
crime for which Dempsey was convicted
is $500 fine and ten years imprisonment.

President ELIOT, of Harvard, says in
the New York World: 81 believe that
every honest and healthy man, woman
or child brought into the country is a
gain to it. Our population is on the
average very sparse. Immense regions
south of the Ohio and west of the Mis-
souri, are still undeveloped for the lack
of human labor and not a single one of
the old states has anything like the num-
ber of inhabitants it is capable of sup
porting. Fields, forests, quarries,
mines, roads, trades. mills and fac
tories, all need more laborers, and will
need more and more for many genera
tions to come.
Il hold that the sixty-five millions of
immigrants and descendants of i'm
migrants who now occupy sparsely this
continental territory would show them
selves ungenerous and ungrateful if they
now closed it to other immigrants who
wish to seek here for themselves and
their children better future than the
Old World offers them.
81 deny that such political and social
evils as we suffer from are to be Justly at
tributed to recent immigrants. 1t is the
| experienced voters, and not the inexperi-
enced, who are responsible for weak or
bad legislation and administra ton. II
is not new immigrants who buy votes OF
who pass the tariff acts which inevitably
breed vote buyers. Our notorious spoils-
men and political machinists hav been
some time in this country"

Roth Legs Broken.

George Marshall, of York, Pa, met
with a terrible accident at the works of
;. Morgan Smith, of that place, Tues
day forenoon. With some fellow work
men he had engaged in raising heavy
piece of machinery, with the aid of a
hoist. Unfortunately the chain was
not properly adjusted, and when the
piece of machinery was suspended in the
air the overhead hook broke, letting the
great weight fall. Marshall was directly
IN the line Of its descent. He was
Knocked down and pinned fast to the
floor until relieved by fellow workmen.
On being extricated it was learned that
both legs were broken, one near the hip
and the other near the ankle.

Lamar's Successor.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 24.-Speculation is
already rife over the succession to JUS
tice Lamar on the supreme oench. The
particular person who will be cho fen is
not considered so much as the question
whether or not President Harrison will
make a nomination to fill the vacancy
or leave the matter open for President
Cleveland : action. 1t is certain in view
of the attitude of certain Democratic Sen
atOrs toward the nomination of Mr. Nc
Comas to be judge of the court of the
District of Columbia that a nomination
by President Harrison will ibe antagoni-
zed to the end of the session and defeat
ed if possible. In view of that fact il is
probable that the President will not care
to provoke bitter controversy and will
take no action, but it can be said that
he has come to no determination upon
the matter and will not consider it for
several days at least. Should ne decide
to make nomination the probabilities
are that member of the United States
Judiciary, within Justice Lamar's old
circuit, will be honOred by this appoint
ment This circuit embraces the states
of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, louisiana
Mississippi and Texas.

WHEN the strike was declared off
there were about 1000 non-union men
at work in the Homestead mills.
Now there are only 900. The company
seems to pc getting rid of them as fast as
possible. OF course they could probably
have been taught the business had they
been kept at work long enough, and the
Amalgamated men would never have
won the strike, no matter how long
they had been able to stay out But
all the same there must have been a
good deal of bluff about the declarations
of the company officials that most any

Missing Certificates.

WAsHINGToS. Jan. 23.-The missing
certificates of the electoral colleges of
fourteen states, which ought to have
been delivered by special messenger
into the hands of the president of the
Senate before the fourth Monday in
January, have none of them came to
hand to-day, but intimations have been
received that most of them are on
the way and may be expected to-mor-
row.
The failure of so many of the states to
comply with this obvious necessary pre-
caution has called attention to the ad-
visibility of "A general law to regulate the
form of certificates To be issued in such
cases and also in the case of the election
of the United States Senators and mem
bers OF Congress.

EXGov. JOHN MARTIN on Wednesday
was elected United States Senator from
Kansas in a joint session of the Legis-
lature, receiving SO votes of the 81 cast.
The Republicans of the Lower House,
who are fOcking by themselves, did not
participate. They claim that nine of
those who voted in the joint convention
were not legally members of the Leg;s-
lature and had no right to vote. But it
appears that if these nine were left out of
the count, there was present legal
quorum of members whose title is un-
disputed. We have no question,
therefore, that this election will be held
valid and that Judge Martins title will
be recognized by theSenate.

Mr.. Cleveland will have three places

He will, 10y special act, doubtless retire
Justice Lamar early in the next session
of Congress. He has reached the age of
retirement, but has not been in service ten
years, as required by law. Lamar is old
and poor and we are going To pension
him by retiring him by special act of
