Baker, more fumiliarly known as "Dr.
Baker" an eccentric character known
all over the state as n fortune teller, is
dead. For many years he resided in
Mishawaka, q small town four miles
east of here. People came from far and
near to consult him, and lie had
amassed considerable wealth in his vo.
cation. Mr.. Baker was 65 years of age.
He vas n veteran of the late war; was
with General Sherman in his march to
the sea. lie could neither read nor
write, but his success in predicting fu-
ture events and locating missing prop
etty was nothing short Of marvellous.
One remarkable case in which he
figured several years q was that of j.
C.. Shenefield. a republican citizen of
Madison township. whose family had u
tradition concerning the hiding of a
big sum of money Mt some place on
the farm of a relative residing near
Cincinnati, the money being hidden
during the late war. Often, but in
vain, had it been searched for. Mr..
Sbenefield consulted "Dr." Baker as a
last resort, and he described with rare
minuteness just where it could be
found.
Mr.. Shenefeld went to the farm,
found just such q place as described,
and found hidden there the money,
which was in silver. There was over
81, 900 of the hidden treasure. Baker
had never been in that part Of the
country and the find proved a great ad-
vertisement for him.

VICTORY OF THE TRUST.
Foreclosure of the Mortgage Made When
tho Democracy Went In.

The sugar trust has won.
Its victory in congress is complete.
The administration also recognizes
its supremacy.
The Clevelands and Wilson's, no
less than the Germans and Brices, arc
its snbservient supporters.
A tariff bill has finally been passed
which is not only acceptable TO both
branches of congress and President
Cleveland, but also has the approval
of the American Sugar Reiincries com
pany, the Incorporated title of tho
sugar trust.
The stumbling block" which has
been in the pathway of tariff reform
ever since the house refused to accept
the senatc's amendments to the Will
son bill, the senat refused to recedc,
the president wrote to Representative
Wilson and Senator Gorman replied 10
the presidents letter, was placed there
by the sugar trust. In a word, the
trust held up" both the congress and
the president and refused TO allow the
procession to proceed until its high
wayman demands had been conceded.
The concession was made evidently rs
the result of the three-cornered CON-
sultation at the white house between
Grover Cleveland, Arthur Il. German
and William J.. Wilson.
The revised tariff bill which has
been passed by congress is not a com
promise bill, in the sense that the sem
ate and house have made mutual on
cessions in orderto harmonic conflict
ing elements. The concessions are all
on one side and have been made by
the house and the president TO the
senate and the sugar trust. They
were the indispensable copdition on
which the trust would remove it's OPP
position and permit a tariff bill TO
pass; and the Wilson's and Clevelands
have bowed their heads and submitted
to the very yoke which the Germans
and Briccs have worn and for which

Bill.
Before the tariff bill was passed Mr..
Cleveland said of it that if put through
in the form in which it went to tho
conference committee it meant party
perfdy and party dishonor." He said
further that mo tariff measure can
accord with democratic principles or
promises or bear a genuine democratic
badge that does not provide for free
raw materials" AS coal and iron ore
have not been put on the free list the
new law does not accord with genuine
democratic principles according to the
presidents idea of them.
But the democrats outside of the
white house, even those who but a
few days ago were commenting Mr..
Cleveland for his heroic stand in sup
port Of the sound doctrine, are of the
opinion now that the new law is not

Neal, the author OF the radical plank
in the national platform which calls

Owing to the eXertions Of Senator

Everybody knows that much, per-

thing, but only a few persons know
how some OF the counterfeit Mocha Is

Brazil are often shriveled in the sem
blance of the true Mocha, and these arc
carefully set aside, shipped to soma
port famous for Mocha coffee, ana sent

is to put a stovcpipe into the middle OF
the bag. I'LL all around it with good
coffee. I'll the pipe itself with an m

up the bag. When the coffee comes TO
be sampled n tube is sunk for some
inches through the side Of the bag, and
from the sample the whole is judged

seldom reaches the coffee that wa put
into the stovcpipe, and so the whole

Germany has for years possessed the

At Strasburg there are 600 birds, Mt
Metz 600, at Thorn LOCO and they arc
kept by the hundreds at other centers,
such as Majnz, Cologne, Kiel and Dam
zig. The whole frontier is connected
by pigeon post with the military head
quarters and with towns in the inte-
rior. The servi,e is supported by ar
appropriation of about $4,000 a year.
The practical use OF the pigeon post
was fully demonstrated a. the siege Of
Paris in 1870. Since then it has be-
come ii recognized part Of the military
organization of all European countries
except Great Britain. Russia has now
on her Polish frontier alone 1000 birds
and appropriates yearly $4,000 for
pigeons. The French appropriation is
twice as large.
