A strange Affection.

William De Pue, a farmer OF Lehman
township. New York, just across the
PENNSYLVANIA line, is suffering from an
affection as rare as it is dreadful. Inc
maladv is known as aphasia, and, in the
case of this unfortunate man, has re
suited in complete loss OF speech and
memory About fifteen years ago Mr.
De Pue, who is so years old, was sud
denly stricken with muteness and lest
every vestige of memory. He confined
himself to his room and took no notice
of ANYTHING happening around him, re-
tanning none Of his faculties. Physicians
were unable to arouse hlm from his
strange condition, which continued tol
five wears, during which time the mans
wife managed his farm. He apparently
heard everything said to him, but took
no more intere est in the words than a
dead man would have done. Five years
elstrfeu' DIS sftd6nIy as they had left him
One morning when his wife passed him
with her milk pals he said in a perfectly
natural tone, ''My dear, shall | help you
milk?" His wife was so surprised by
this sudden manifestation of the return
of her husbands senses that she tainted.
The improvement seemed to be perma
nent, and De Pue went about his duties
as though nothing had happened. He
refused to say word about his strange
afliction and seemed TO be in total
ignorance of it.
For year and half he was thorough
ly himself and did his farm work, and
called on his neighb ors as had been his
custom. At the end of this time he sud
denly relapsed into his former imbecile
condition. Until three years ago he had
occasional returns of reason, at which
lines he enjoyed full vigor Of mind and
body. Three years ago, after an unusu-
ally long period of perfect brightness Of
Intellect, his affection returned, and be
sank into condition Of imbecility
which seems to have returned never to
leave him.

THE MESSAGE.

President Cleveland's message to con-
press was very lengthy document, and
only the leading metropolitan papers I'M
dertook to print it.
Its length was due to the prominence
given to the reports of the heads OF the
different departments of the government,
and the presidents own part of the in
teresting document may be summarized
as follows
Congress is admonished to make haste
slowly in financial legislation, relying
upon the repeal of the Sherman silver
law to ultimately restore confidence and
bring the available money of the coun-
+rv AGAIN into circulation. Civil service
reform is strongly advocated, and great
er economy recommended in every de-
partment of the government. A corpo
ration income TAX is luuoISOu' - 49,
waiian affair is referred to briefly, and
il is stated that when important intor-
nation which is soon expected from the
American Minister at Honolulu has been
received it will be transmitted to con
gress. Tariff reform is strongly urged
AMI the Wilson bill is Endorsed.
In his review of the work of the de
partments the president strongly and un
reservedIy approves the management o.
pension affairs by Hon. Hoke Smith, anc
leaves no doubt that the president anc

A FORMIDABLE FIGHTER.
The BattIeship Massachusetts soon to Be
Launched.

1t is announced that the battleship
Massachusetts will be launched this week
from the shipyard of William Cramp 6
Sons at Philadelphia. The Bay State has
every reason to be proud Of her new
namesake, for she will be not only the
most powerful vessel of the United
States navy, but she will be superior in
fighting efficiency TO any warship a1oat,
building or even designed thus far il the
world.
This may seem rather a broad state.
ment to make, but it is supported by a
consideration of the terrible battery and
the efficient protection. which this great
ship will possess. 1t is true that there
are many larger battleships in foreign
navies and many that are swifter, but
there is none that can match the Massa-
chusetts in battery power, and that, after
all, is the first and most important requi,
site of a modern batt'eship. The Massa-
chusetts was built to fight, not TO run
away.
An act of congress approved June 30,
1890, provided for the construction of
three seagoing coast line battleships.
This was a wise piece of legislation, for
up TO that time the construc tion of yes
sells for the new navy had tended almost
entirely in the direction of unarmored
cruisers-vessels undoubtedly valuable,
but not suited to bearing the brunt of a
naval combat and meeting on fair terms
the huge armorclads of foreign nations.
One of these ships was the Massachu-
sets. Her contract price was fixed at
$4,000 600, which does not include arma-
ment. The other two ships were the
Indiana, already launched, and the Or
egon, now building at San Francisco.

A PROBABLE STRIKE.
Carpenters Employed at the Worlds
Fair Likely to Walk Out.
The Trouble Grows Out of Refusal of
the Board of Control to Sign a
New Scale of Wages.

CHICAGO, April 3.-The Worlds lair
board OF control this afternoon, at the
conclusion of conference with represen-
tatives of the Carpenters union, refused
to sign the new union scale. The World
fair people also declined to arbitrate as to
whether none but union men would be
employed on the grounds. OF 1900 car
penters employed on the grounds 700 are
hired by the Exposition company and the
remainder by contractors. The strike, if
it OCCURS, will involve the zoo men en-
ployed by the exposition and those en-
ployed by such contractors as have not
signed the union scale, about / 900 in all.
The Worlds fair people say the strike
will have but little effect SO far as they are
concerned. That the work is so far adj
yanced that any body who can drive nail
can finish, and that men to take the place
OF any who strike will be plenty.
There is in this city an association of
carpenter bosses known as the Carpen-
ters' and Builders association. 1t has an
agreement with the Carpenters union by
which it agrees to employ none but union
men, and it is provided in the agreement
that carpenters employed by members of
the association shall not strike during the
year, all matters by which trouble might
arise being covered by agreement. Today
President Coggswell of this association
met the Worlds fair council in company
with some of his associates on behalf of
the men, saying they felt justified in ask
ing the exposition to conform to an agree
ment that had proved acceptable to nearly
all the employers and laborers of the
city.
President Higginbotham replied that he
did not see how the exposition could be
expected to modify at this late time con-
tract it had with union labor from the
very outset. General st. Clair, repre-
senting the national commission, said as
an officer of the government it would be
illegal for him to vote for the proposition
which clearly involved discrimination be-
tween citizens who belonged to the union
and those who did not.
Members of the Carpenters and Build
ers association held meeting this even
ing to discuss the question and decide
whether to suspend their contract with
the men and allow them to strike. 1t was
finally decided not to allow any men IN
der the agreement with them to strike.
This confines the strike to such contract
ors as had signed an agreement as stated
above.

WYOMING STOCK MEN.
TWenty.First Annual Meeting of Stock
Growers Held at Cheyenne.
President Clay Reviews the Invasion,
Justiaes Its objects But Not the
Manner of Conducting 1t.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April 3.-[Special. ]
The twenty-first annual session of the
Wyoming Stockgrowers' association was
held here today. President John Clay,
ir., OF Chicago, said, in calling the asso-
citation to order in reference to the inva-
sion: Long continued range depreda-
tions eliminated in the so-called invasion
OF johnson county which ended so unfor-
tunately and gave rise to bad blood polit-
icaily and socially. Speaking of the in
yaders, he said:
Technically legally they did wrong,
but I consider it no mean privilege to
stand in this p rominent position today
and say that count every one of them a
friend. Notwithstanding their errors of
judgment we respect them Cor their man
illness, for their supreme courage under
the adverse fire of caiumny and the usual
kicking man gets when he is down.
There will be a day of retribution and the
traitors in the camp and in the field will
be wipnowed like wheat from the chat. -
OF the prospects of the cattle business
Mr.. Clay said: GAS we enter another sea-
son the prospects for the Wyoming cat
tienen are brighter; the dispersion of
herds has left the ranges with room for
what cattle remain; grass was decidedly
more plentiful in 1892 than it has been for
several years, and we start on our annual
work with cattle in much better condition
than for four years past.
j. w. Hammond, president of the board
of live stock commissioners, stated that
by reason OF Governor Osborne's veto of
the appropriation for carrying on the
work of the commission, the stock men
would have to make their own arrange
ments for the inspection of cattle. He
suggested that the association make an
assessment or form private pool for that
purpose. The question brought on gen.
eral discussion, which was continued at
the afternoon session.
The plan finally adopted was that the
Stock association conduct an inspection
at the various central markets, the assess
ment for such inspection to be based upon
the returns of cattle belonging to MEM
bers OF the association according to the
tax list of 1892.
The officers selected for the current
year are: President, John Clay, jr. j:
vice-president, George W. Baxter;
secretary, II. B. Ijams; treasurer, II. G.
