THE TESTING MACHINE.
Strenuous Efforts to Lpca.c One nj Rock
Island Arsenal.

Strenuous efforts are being made
at Washington to secure the location
At Rock Island arsenal of the govern
ment testing machine for tension
and compression for government nd
industrial uses. A bill has been i'll
troduced in the senate for the appro-
priation of $3.50, 900 for the purchase
and installation of this apparatus.
This machine is costly and COM
pick apparatus for the testing of the
strength of various substances and
materials. either under pull, sus-
pended strain, CT pressure. 1t is
used by the government very extern
sivelv. All iron, brick and stone.
with other materials used in naval.
ARTILLERY. ordnance or other con-
struction, are put through tests of
these kinds. Beside the uses the
government makes of the machine it
is intended to be open to the testing
of materials for private individuals
and firms. Samples of paving bricks
arc easily tested, and the number of
pounds per square inch required to
crush them is accurately registered.
Timbcrs that are expected TO carry
great strains in bridg cs and build
ings are tested in the same manner
Iron l-bcams, columns, building
stones, rods and braces. etc. to the
end Of an interminable list, all are
meat for The testing machine.
What 1t win Mean.
There are number of small ma
chimes of this sort in existence and
use in this country. but none, it is
understood. as large or efficient rs
this one proposed for the arsenal.
Even the smallest of these machines
is built to special order. fact that
greatly increases its cost, which
would be much less for any single
apparatus il. it were only one of many
such turned out at i given shop, in
stead Of heing the only one. 1t will
be an easy matter to consume the
greater part Of a quarter of a million
of dollars in the construction and in
stalling of this great machine here.
After it is located it will be an added
advertisement of the arsenal and the
three cities. and wial provo to be in
many ways well worth hating. aside
from its usefulness and convenience
to the manufacturers located here.

The keeley Cure.

The treatment of inebriety. discov- cred and practIced by Dr. Keeley at Dwight, H., has passed the experi- mental stage. Time has proved that it destroys all desire for strong drink, builds up the physical system, strength ems the moral nature, and best of all, it has established the ia ,t that the cure is permanent. Time also has wrought wonderful change in sentiment regard ing the treatment both as to it's charac- ter and efficiency. Strange as it may seem, church people, ministers and temperance workers along the old lines were the loudest in dsnunciation of the Keeley cure when it was first presented to the public.
 These people all considered drunken ness moral obliquity rather than a phy- sical disease, and urged that cures and reformations should be effected by the grace of God rather than medical treat ment. That many men have been res cued from the fate of adrunkard's grave by the sustaining and will encouraging assistance of the sympathy and prayers of friends, there can be no doubt, but the percentage was small for several reasons.
 With the gold cure it is different. Considering, as it rightly does, that drunkenness is a disease, a remedy is employed which strikes right at the seat of the affection, and in a month's time the patient walks forth free man and new creature. That some should relapse into their old ways is not strange. No power but death can pre- vent man from drinking if he chooses to do so, but the Keeley graduate must go about it maliciously, with purpose aforethought, if he returns to the drink habit. It is greatly to the credit of the treatment that only per cent. go back i; for the other 95 per cent. there is new ness of life, blessedness of home life, love and respect of wife and children, bright prospects for the future in busi- ness and social life--the uplifting from the lowest depths of degredation to full fledged manhood in the broadest sense of the term.
 Aside from affording the individual relief from the cravings of an overpow- ering appetite She Keeley cure is mak- ing drunkenness infamous. The man who now continues drunken sot, q nuisance to the public and to his friends does so from choice, and is unworthy of any sympathy or respect. If man falls into the gutter and desires to get back to life of sobriety and usefulness, the cure will help him to do so. II he goes again to the gutter it is his own choice he proves that he would rather be drunken bum than useful citizen, and the community has no place for such, By showing this the cure makes habituaI drunkenness a disgrace that IS inexcusable, and will have a great ten dency to keep men out of the lower depths of degradation from the immod crate use of iEtox icants.

Stimulate the Blood,

BRANDRETH's PILLS are the great blood purifier. They are purgative and blood tonic, they act equally on the bowels, the kidneys, and the skin, thus cleansing the system by the natural outlet of the body-they may be called the purgative sudorifc and diuretic medicine. They stimulate the blood so as to enable nature to throw off all morbid humors, and cure disease no matter by what name it may be called, One or two of them taken every night will prove an infsllible remedy.

quit claim deed or trust for the syndi-
cate and that in 1876 Remington gave
a warranty deed for the entire prop
erty to his s~on-in-law, the present Sem
ator Squire of Washington. 1t is
alleged that Squire used the property
as his own. and sold q part OF il. know
ing OF the trust character OF transfer to
Remington by the syndicate. Now
they ask for an accounting for lands
sold and transferred, and of that re-
naming unsold. The property COM
pr1ses many valuable parcels in the best
portion of Seattle and vicinity.
