Decidedly shany

A trembling hand, an uncertain step, fdgetIness, indicated by restless shift ing from one place or posture to au- other, usually mental annoyance at un- expected noises are among the lndica- tions of extreme nervousness. These seem triiiiug but the health of men and women in this condition is edecid- edly shaky, liable to be oyerthrown disastrously by causes which the gigor- ous might defy. To fortify the nervous system, general yigor must, through the medium of reinforced digestion, epd renewal of an impaired power of sleeping at night, be raised to health ful standard. A guarantee of this is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which re- establishes digestion, bile secretion and the habit of body oa permanently regular basis, thus renewing thet bodi- ly equilibrium, which is followed by Q gain of strength and nerve tranquility. For kidney complaint, rheumatism, neuralgia, and as preventive of the first attack or subsequent return of malaria disorders, this medicine is without peer. Thrice daily take a wine glassful

Ex-Ssnator John B. Henderson, who occupied seat in the U. s. Senate by appointment of provisional governor of Missouri, Hamilton R. Gamble, dur ing the late unpleasantness, and who was faithful in tho execution of all Republican behssts except in loaning himself for the impeachment of Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, has written letter to the Sec rstary of the U. s. Treasury, by re- quest of that official, touching the monetary condition of the country, and dsprecatory of the further coinage of silver Inasmuch as his statement of facts are, to the informed, regarded as falacious, they will, therefore, have but little effees iR mystifying the minds of those most interested. The subject IS far-reaohing, not only affecting the silver producing States and Territories, but the ramifcatien of commerce, and branches of productive labor Con- grsss will convene in special session August 7th, to wrestle with the silver question, and from the diversity of opinion concerning it, it is expected our statesmen will wax warm aad elo- qusnt vixen discussing it's fate.

DIscRED,riSG SILVER.

The strictly benevolent scheme for rendering ''the dollar of our daddiesn valueless which was matched in the Interest of shyloclSs in the mosey cen ters, has fructihed, and now occupies a commanding position in commercial circles throughout the world. And now, as a result of the drop in silver, in mining localities where the white metal was delved for and health and plenty cheer'd the miners cot, how changed Is the scene in one short week. Take for instance the State of Cobra do upon the receipt of the action of England in influencing India's blow te silver. The news from that append age of Great Britain, closing her hints to the further coinage of silver, seems to have paralyzed the market for sil- yer as a medium of exchange, and as a consequence it's commercial value has so greatly depreciated as to render its production as paying industry impossible. Hence the prediction that ''the closing of the mines means bread or blood to thousands. It means par alysis to business. What is said of Colorado applies with equal force to every silver producing State and Ter ritory of the United States, as we'll as elsewhere where silver mining pre- doniinates. As an exemplifcation of the state of feeling in Colorado, we reproduce a Denver dispatch of recent date which says ''The commercial affairs of the State are bound to suffer by this sudden cutting of of revenues, and some disastrous failures may be looked for. These can only be pre- 6icted. Every firm is watching it's af- fairs most carefully. Delegations of prominent citizens waited upon Gov, Waite to-day to urge him to call a special session of the Legislature, while other delegations told him not to do so. He has reserved his deci- sion.
 He returned to the city late last night and announced that he is ready 10 call an extra session of the Legisla- ture immediately to consider the re- peal of all attachment laws, the pas sage of stay law suspendiug for one or two years the collection of all debts, the passage of special redemption law and the prohibition of gold clauses in all contracts. The Governor was intensely excited as he declared he would take action at once if there was 8 public demand"

Within the past two years under the provision of an act of Congress bear ing the date of March Sd, 1891, there have been created a series of national forest reservations aggregating in ex- tent probably not less than 15,0OO, 900, acres. These number fifteen, and are located in California, Colorado, Ore gon, Washington, Wyoming, Arizona and Alaska
 Arizona contains one of these new reserves, says the Review of Review, viz: The Grand Canyon Forest Re- serve, in Cocouino county, which was established by executive proclamation on Feb. goth of the present year. This is one of the largest of the whole series, having an area of 2,s93 square miles, or 1, ,s51, ,520 acres It is situated in the northern part of Arizona, and the Col 6rado river runs through it from east to west, portion of the Grand Cam yon of the Colorado being included within its limits. The portion of Che reserve lying south of ths Colorado river contains what Is known as the Coconino Forest, while the upper DOT ton includes considerable part of the Buckskin or Kibab plateau. It is a region of gigantic and impressive scenery, and may we'll be considered one our greatest national world famed as it is already for canyon and mountain scenery on a scale of uns Fivalled grandeur.

Dr. M. J. Davis is prominent phy- sician of Lewis, Cass county, Iowa, and has been actively engaged in the practice of medicine at that place for the past thirty-fye years. Ontbe 26th of May, while in Des Moines en route to Chicago, he was suddenly taken with an attack of diarrhea. Having sold ChamberlaiA's Collie, Cholera and Diar- rhpa Remedy for the past seventeen years, and knowing its reliability, he procured a 25 cent bottle, two doses of which completely cured him.

THOMAS NELSON PAGE
At the Blue Room Next Tuesday
Night

NlRQC,
The Pat Cleburne Camp is to BE-
congratulated upon having secured g
reading for their benefit BY this dis
,ipguished southern au hor. Few
men in these public readings have
been SO universally commenced nv
the press and people The NEWS
presented a notice highly compli
menting him a day or two ago clip.
ped from one of the leading southern
papers, and today is presented the
way he meets the Boston eye. The
Boston Daily Advertiser says:
"To say that the reading was sue
cessful expresses but little. 1t is
rarely. indeed, that such enthusiastic
appreciation is bestowed on enter
taiuments Of this nature, although
authors readings always have a
special interest In this case the in.
terest was certainly very special, Mr..
Page in particular, having acquired a
very high reputation as writer of
southern stories. His selections last
evening were "Marse Chan and
"Pulaski's Tournament" The first
is story told by negro Of "beto'
the wah.' 1t is such pretty love
story, with such pathetic ending,
and was read with intelligence so per
feet that many eyes were filed with
tears. MIR. Page has an extremely
pleasing personality, and reads as
we'll as he wri Indeed, his stories
take On new color as interpreted by
him. To read them ia a rare pleas
ure; to hear them read by him is a
delight The calm simplicity of his
manner is charming. There is abso
lutely no endeavor after "effects," yet
not an infection is misplaced, not an
information untrue. In the humorous
"Pulaski's Tournament" his render.
irg was no less perfect. The story is
DELICIOUS. The quaint, dry humor of
the old negro is as irresistably funny
as anything that memory recalls, and
it is difficult to say which--the pa
thetic or the amusing-the audie nee
enjoyed most thoroughly.

AUSTIN NOTES.

AUSTIN, Jan. 20.-The newspaper
appropriation discussed in the house
this morning was about the first brush
of the session. unless the tilt between
Speaker Cochran and Representative
Breeding, over change in the rules,
in which Breeding waltzed off with
the speakers scalp, be considered
Representative Chambers, of Mon
tague, made giddy chrome of him
self at an outlay OF only about $4,000
to the state. At least this is the sum
which the discussion cost the state
according to the computations of a
mathematical expert. Mr.. Chambers
urged constitutional objections to the
appropriation to pay the papers, but
his resolution provided for the dis
continuance January 81. He was
knocked clear off of the Christmas
tree by Representative Teagin, Of
Polk, who wanted to know if it was
unconstitutional to continue sending
the papers through the session, v nv it
was not unconstitutional to send them
until January 81.
Miss Hattie Harm, of Waco, is Wis :
iting Mrs G. c. Harm at 1907 East
Seventh street.
The paper proposition is only
slightly disigured, and is likely to
be still in the ring tomorrow. Rogan,
of Caldwell sought to clinch the re =
scinding resolution by moving to re
consider and also moving to table the
m otion to reconsider, but as tho same
thing had been done to cllnch the
original resolution a, the beginning Of
the session the presumption is that a
motion to take any other number than
thirty copies will be in order whenever
made.
