1t is reported that SO, 900 Chinese troops
are on their way to take up the positions
at Ping Yang and on the Yalu river re-
Gently occupied by the army that the
Japanese wiped out. If the report is cor
rect, another great battle may be ex-
pected shortly. The Japanese forces in
the neighborhood is estimated at nearly
$4,000, and, flushed with their victory of
last week, there is little doubt that they
will fall upon the Chinese at the earliest
opportunity and endeavor to repeat their
triumph.

II appears that the secret ballot did not
work so well in Maine in the recent cleo
tion. Chairman Manley Of the repub-
hcan executive committee says that not
less than 5000 votes were thrown out be-
cause OF defective marking. And, curl
ously enough, among the ballots thrown
out for that reason were those Of ex-Gov
Williams and ex-senator Brad bury
Chairman Manley will use his influence
to have the system sbrogated by the next

Nobody can much blame the Chinese
commander from telling stories about
their campaigns in Korea If they tell
the truth and the truth happens to be on
the wrong side, off goes the unfortunate
commanders head. Had the late Gen.
Banks been a Chinese commander he
would never have been a member of the
government after such a campaign as
that Of his in the Mississippi valley.

The message Of President Diaz to the
Mexican congress contains passages that
are construed to mean that Mexico may
shortly have to undertake the disciplin-
ing Of Guatemala. The president says
Guatemala has been making illegal and
unwarranted encroachments upon Mexi-
can territory, and that he has vainly pro-
tested against such encroachments. He
hopes the matter may be peaceably set
tied, but if it is not, the executive will
perform the duty incumbent upon him Of
causing the rights of Mexico to be re-
spected." Under existing conditions a
war between Mexico and Guatemala
would be very one-sided affair. But if
the Central American states should per-
feet their proposed union for offensive
and defensive purposes, Mexico might
find her hands full whenever she under
took to administer correction to one Of
her little neighbors.

Kansas is at the front again with a new
''non-partisan political party" 1t was
organized last week, and its members are
pledged to vote for no congressman who
will not pledge himself to vote for a "land
currency bill" The idea is to have the
government issue money on a basis of
land values alone, and to do away with
coin or other bases. A canvass is being
made in each district of Kansas, and the
promoters of the scheme promise to send
LAND currency orators into every con
gressional district in the country.
The Louisville Courier-Journaps CORE.
spondent at Washington sends his paper
an elaborate and careful analysis of the
chances for and against a democratic
majority in the next House of Represen-
tatives. He assumes that the overwhelm-
ing democratic victory of 1892 was partly
due to periodical wave of discomfort
among the boys in the trenches, =" and
points out that such a wave may this
year come to the help Of the republicans.
Taking the northern, eastern and west
ern states one by one the correspondent
considers the chances in each and con-
cludes that the democrats may lose thirty
seats from these three sections. In the
south he thinks seven seats may be lost.
Besides these, he calculates margin of
four doubtful seats in the north and four
in the south. The seats for Louisiana
are not counted either way

DR.. w. T. Jenkins, the health officer of
the port Of New York, has given the New
York World an interesting paper on
cholera He says that the history of
cholera in the port of New York shows
that in every instance where the ship has
brought cholera infection the develop
ment of the disease has been within not
more than two days after leaving the in
fected port. On shipboard at least Is
per cent. Of the cases of diarrhoeal
trouble, or cholerine, recover without
giving serious inconvenience to the pa
tient or without being discovered by the
medical inspection. Only % per cent.
reach a state Of collapse, and of these the
recoveries are more than IS per cent. I'M
der proper medical treatment. Cleanli-
ness, prompt isolation and supervision of
water and food supply will stop the
spread Of the disease. Dr. Jenkins thinks
that the United States will escape a Wis
itation Of cholera this year owing to the
lateness Of the season. The New York
board OF health each year educates from
twenty-five to fifty men in the handling
OF contagious and infectious diseases
and Will send a skilled bacterioloeist en-
tireiy familiar with cholera 70 any city
not remote from New York in which

haven for white teachers beginning Ju-
ly 30, and continue one week, conduct
ed by Prof. A. L. Summer, of Lumber
ton, and Prof. J. NJ. White, of the A.

The Legislature, speaking for the
people through the liberal appropria-
ton which was voted almost unani-
mously, endorsed these training
our public schools is directly depend
ent upon the spirit of progress exist
ing among the teachers we employ. 1t
will cost very little more to attend the
Institute than to stay at home. Pa
irons, trustees and pupils will have
greater respect for teacher who an
nually invests a part of his earnings
to buy new ideas and deeper inspira-
ton. 1t makes a better teacher and
they know it. You are not willing to
remain as you are; you want to rise
higher every year. A Teachers Insti-
tute is almost at your door. 1t will
help every earnest attendant Can
you afford not to attend Progress
i've teachers are sure to get to the
front; the self satisfied and retrogres-
sive will continue to complain of small
pay and want of employment. If you
have not faith to invest few dollars
to make yourself more worthy and
your services more valuable, can you
expect trustees to continue to invest
in you as you are | earnestly insist
that every teacher in Lincoln county
come at the opening Monday at o
A. NJ. July 30th. Bring your text books
with you for reference, etc. The In
stitute is maintained for work, not
for amusement. Let those teachers
who attended Summer Normals come
and help the rest. We are on the
march of progress. All who expect to
continue in the service of teaching
should fall into line.
The conductors are earnest and
practical teachers and will do all in
their power to advance the cause of
education in our county.
Requesting your jealous co-opera-
ton in the great work before us, and
commencing to you again the sacred
cause of the children, | remain,
Yours truly,

A CRYSTAL WEDDING

The fifteenth anniversary of the
marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Josh Prize
batsch was celebrated by them on last
Friday evening at their charming
home on Railroad Avenue. Their ele-
CANT and commodious residence held
wide it's hospitable doors, while the
beaming smiles of host and hostess
lighted by happy memories of the
event of years ago, made all things
bright and joyous for the large assem-
bly, of friends and relatives. Seated
beneath bower of roses and vines,
Mr.. and Mrs. Priebatsch received their
friends; after which there followed the
inspection of the crystal gifts which
had been placed in the handsome Ii
brary Mrs Priebatsch had modestly
sent out invitations only a few days
before the Goth, so that her friends
might not feel it incumbent upon
them to make gifts, according to Gus
tom. Notwithstanding this, the pres
ents received were numerous and
beautiful, and were doubtless express
sions of sincere regard. The favored
guests We'd with each other in the
pleasures of the evening and after the
serving of large bowl of "appollinaris
water" the melodious sounds of the
local band were heard and soon the
happy hours were chased by "fying
feet" in the gay whirl of the may
waltz. For the enjoyment of others to
whom dancing was less attractive, that
charming young lady, Miss Annie Lew
enthal, introduced the exciting and
commendable game of Remembrance
in which Mr. Sam Wilson won the
capital prize and THE LEADERS editor
the "booby," which consisted of a
"cute" little Chinese doll; after the
merriment had hushed in degree,
time flew swiftly until II o'clock when
a banquet was served in the spacious
and elegant dining hall where numer-
Gus oaken tables and handsome chairs,
choice viands and fruits lured the de
lighted guests to partake fully of the
generous hospitality of their host and
hostess. The brightly illumined hall,
the artistic decorations, the merry
smiles and happy laughter made even
age TO feel it's years less burdensome,
and youth to forget all past joys and
future hopes while reveling in the de-
lights at hand. Altogether a more sue
cessful entertainment was never ex-
tended appreciative guests in our city
and long will the occasion be kept
bright and beautiful in the heart of
memory. May Mr.. and Mrs. Priebatscb,
their three little sons and talented
daughter, live to see the repetition of
Fridays suspicious event until the
diamond wedding outsparkles the
crystal as we'll as the silver and the
golden.

strange weakness in my hack and around my
waist, tOgethCr with an indeScriDable gone
feeling in my stomach. Physicians said 1t
was creeping paralysis, from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion, there Is no
relief. Once it fastenS upon person, they
say it continues its insidious progress until
it reaches a vital point and the sufferer dies.
