The uaual treatment of catarrh is very
unsatisfactory, as thousands can testify.
Proper local treatment is positively nee
essary to success, but many, if not most,
of the remedies in general use afford but
temporary relief. A cure certainly can
not be expected from snuffs, powders,
douches and washes. Ely's Cream Balm,
which is SO highly commended, is a
remedy which combines the important
requisites or quick action, specific cura-
tive power, with perfect safety and pleas
antness to the patient. The druggists
all sell it.

Lost Her Hand but Saved Her Life.

Mrs. Edward Myers, of Athens, N. Y.
had been treated for months in the usual
way for erysipelas, without benefit
Her hand had become mass of purified
flesh, the blood so poisoned that her life
was despaired of. At this critical time
Mrs. Myers sought the advice of DR.. David
Kennedy discoYerer of Favorite Remedy.
DR.. Kennedy found it impossible to save
the hand, so he amputated the same, then
gave her Favorite Remedy which drove
the poisonous disease cut of her system,
cleansed the blood, thus saving her life.
Had Favorite Remedy been used earlier
in the Development of erysipelas, Mrs.
Myers would have saved her hand. The
worst cases of eczema, salt rheum and

THE PROPOSED BONDS.
An Easier Feeling Among Treasury Of A.aa nAa. Hsac fl,a Whale Iaaf.

An Easier Feeling Among Treasury Of-
 Oficials-One Offer for the Whole Lot.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.--Now that Secretary Carlisle has taken action on the bond question there is a feeling Of relief among the treasury officials, who have been viewing with uneasiness the invading of the gold reserve. Printing will be pushed rapidly, but the bonds can hardly be ready for delivery before February 1. They will bear interest from that time, as announced by Secre- tary Carlisle.
 Among the large crowd of callers waiting to see MT. Carlisle was a New Yorker who had come to announce per sonally that he was willing to take the whole $50, 900, 900 in bonds to be issued. A request for his name was refused. The aggregate amount of offers re- ceived before the circular was issued is $40, 900, ,000. All the offers so far made, it is said at the treasury department, have come from persons and firms in New York city. One offer to take sl0O,- 900 at 11S has been received.
 It was announced at the treasury de- partment that Secretary Carlisle would not make public the names of persons offering to take bonds, the amount they subscribed for, or the figures they of fered for them. To make public the figures, it was pointed out would give late bidders an opportunity to offer bet ter terms than those of the earlier bid ders. It was said, unofficially, however, that the $50, 900, 900 offer was at the mini mum premium of s117,223. There is said to be no likelihood of the accept ance of this or any similar offer, as it is contrary to the secretsry's desire to make the loan popular one, to which the public generally may subscribe. On this theory it is proposed to encour- age offers for small lots from all sec tions of the country rather than to have the entire loan taken by few dealers in large blocks. The idea naturally includes the hope that small denominations will be taken in prefer ence to the large ones. This, of course, would involve the issue of great many more bonds.

 WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The sub-com- mittee of the judiciary committee of the house has ordered favorab able re- port on the resolution of Representa- tive Bailey, declaring that the secre- tary of the treasury has no authority to issue bonds.

 Resolved, That 1t is the sense of the house of representatives that the secretary of the treas. ury has no authority under existing law to is sue and sell the bonds of the United States ex. cept such as is conferred upon him by the act approved January II, 1875, entitled An act to provide for the resumption of specie payment" and that the money derived from the sale of bonds issued under that act cannot be lawfully applied to any purpose except those specified tberpin

 Mattox boarded Missouri Pacific pas senger train No. 454 at 2:20 p. m. at the new yards, Eldorado, Kan. After the train had started for the east he in. quired of Conductor s. F. Hayden the amount of the fare to Fort Scott, and was told S3.S0, which he promptly paid, having the exact change, and took front seat in the smoking car. After working his train, Conductor Hayden went forward and took seat beside him. He opened conversation by asking him if he intended to go east of Fort Scott He replied "To Springfield, Mo" Conductor Hayden's suspicious had been aroused from the first and he stated to his new passenger that Clyde Mattox had escaped, and his passenger asked whether from the jail or courtroom. He was informed that the escape had been made from the jail and immediately lapsed to silence, which nothing could induce him to break.
 There was passenger on the train named Pritchard who had spent two days at the trial in Wichita. The first day he sat thirty feet in front of Mat tox and made thorough study of him. The second day he sat immediately in his rear and when conductor Hayden made known his suspicious to him Pritchard went forward, made close scrutiny of the passenger and positively identified him as the escaped criminal

Gov. Mitchell Denounced and Trouble Is
 Threatened If He Interferes-
 JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 1L-Man- ager Bowden's errand in Tallahassee was the principal subject of conversa- tion among the followers of the Cor bett- Mitchell contest
 Although dispatches announced his interview with Gov. Mitchell was of a private nature, still his statement that the situation was unchanged gives friends of the Duval club reason to hope nothing was developed adverse to the interests of the club.
 Sheriff Broward is reported as hav- ing said if the governor ordered out the militia he would consider it per sonal insult, and resign his position. It was impossible to locate the sheriff, however, and the truth of the story cannot be confirmed at this writing.
 Last night great crowd of citizens thronged Metropolitan hall, called there to protest against the intended action of Gov Mitchell in calling out the militia to prevent the Corbett- Mitchell contest Speeches were made of fiery nature, some of the most prominent men in the city re- spending to calls from the audience.
 The crowd was worked up to a high pitch of excitement and threats were frequently heard that the first attempt by the military would result in blood shed. This is the general opinion throughout the city
