Beware of Ointm nts for Catarrh that
 Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole sys- tenn when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable phy- sans, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, O., contains no mercury and is taken internally, and acts directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Halls Oatarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally, and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Go.
 Hrsold by Druggists, 76 cents.

 s0nce.
 John Gelati, an Italian working i'll Peirce X Freeman's quarry, was brought before Justice Roberts charged with striking with stick and choking another Italian, Palararo by name, in Mir and Mrs Delmolino's cider joint on Sunday. Palararo had drawn his knife on Gelati. J. Henry Roraback was prosecutor. None of the parties or W it. nesses spoke much English but they all spoke the musical language of Dante with ease and fuency. Finally the Jus. tice imposed fine of $5 and costs, in all $19., on Gelati.
 Only one freight train was run or this part of the P. R. & N. D. road las Sunday, and that solitary train crep quietly through town. This IS the frs quiet Sunday that Canaan has exper fenced in many months. Some author ity-we don't know who-is entitled tc thanks. Some say the railroad commis sioners ordered all freight trains dis continued on this line in Connection between sunrise and sunset; and some say the railway company itself decided to give it's employees days rest. Tn, cessation of steam whistles, engine bells escaping steam and roar of the cars wa as welcome as an oasis in desert. w. hope the railroad company will find to their interest to observe the Lord day by discontinuing all freight train and thus give their employees, and tn residents of the villages along the line,G rest every Sunday.

WARRINGTON, July M.-From source ex-
cesdingly close to Judge Crisp. who will be
his own successor a. speaker of the house
Of representatives. il is learned to-day that
he will announce all committees and that
that branch Of congress will be we'll under
way with It's work ten days after the open
ing of the session.
or course the financial question will be
the first matter handled. Just what will be
the result of the discussion upon this ques-
tion NO one seems to know, other than that
the Sherman law 10 likely 10 be repealed,
but whether there will be substitute silver
legislation IL an open question, and will re-
main open for aome time.
The various tariff bills that have been
prepared during the recess will be launched
upon the house. There are many of these.
Springer. ohni man Of the ways and means
committee of the last houss, hns prepared
one; Wilson. Of West Virginia. has also
bers. But il is not probable that any one
of them viii be occepted ns whole by the
ways and means committee. That COM
mittes will prepare bill that is 10 become
q law.
The current gossip that a bill is being
prepared by Secretary Carlisle and treasury
officials to be presented as an administrs-
tion measu, g, is said by Crisp's friends to
be nothing more than gossip. Carlisle. they
say, has stated distinctly to several of his
friends that neither tho president nor the
treasury department have ever thought of
debating to congrcss what should be done
in regard to revising the tariff. While treas
ury experts will be called before the ways
and means committee during the prepara-
ton Of the bill. There will be no attempt on
the part of the administration to dictate ts
the house.
