Calcutta,

Calcutta is an imperial city. 1t is laio
out on grand scale. 1t has broad ave
nues and large open spaces, stately build
ings, harbor full of shipping, noble pal
aces and a wilderness of statues of Eng
lishmen who have rendered distinguished
services here-such as Outram, Hardinge,
Lawrence, Give, Dufferin and many more.
The government house, residence of the
viceYoy, is palace in beautiful park.
The courthouse, postofice, government of
fees, museums, ETC., are all of noble pro-
portions. 1t has fine botanical garden
and one of the best geological collections
in the world. Its fashionable drives and
its business avenues display representa-
tives of all the varied peoples of India.
Almost every Asiatic costume is seen in a
walk or ride through the city. The shops
contain all the products of the empire.
We are impressed here more than any
where else with the imperial sway OF
Great Britain in the east, the tremendous
volume of its commerce and the work it
has accomplished in establishing order
and peace among countless millions OF
warning barbarians.-Boston Herald.

Haunted!

A haunted house in these practical and I'M
romantic days is something of a rarity, but an
individual haunted with the idea that his all
ment is ncurable is a parsonage frequently met
with. Disbelief in the ability of medicine to
cure is only mild form of monomania, although
iu some cases repeated failures to obtain relief
seem to Justify the doubt. Hostetters Stomach
Bitters has demonstrated its ability to overcome
dyspepsia, constipation, liver and kidney trou,,
bie malarial complaints and nervousness, and
its recorded achievements in the curative line
ought at least to warrant its trial by any one
troubled with either OF the above ailments even
although his previous efforts to obtain remedial
aid have been fruitless. Used with persistence,
the Bitters will conquer the most obstinate
cases.

MIDDLE IN CAROLINA
and Republicans Mixed
in Their Fusion Plans.
DEMOCRATS CLAIM THE MAJORITY.
The Bitterest Fight Ever Waged in the
State in the Supreme Court aud Con-
gressional Campaigns-Status
of the Fifth District.

RALEIGH, n. c., October 18.-It is adj
United hat the national republican
committee is sending no funds to North
Carolina for use in this campaign.
Chairman Holton of the state commit
tee said he did not propose to ask for a
cent unless he saw a good prospect for
success. The allegation is that the ma
honal committee made a close calcula-
ton on this basis. The 1888 vote for
Harrison was 1874, 900, and in 1892 about
100000, showing that of the vote cast
by the populists for Weaver in 1892
about "a, 900 was drawn from the repub-
llcan party. The democrats contend
that the vote this time should be $780,
900 democratic, $50, 900 fusion.
so much mixed are matters in the
fusion ranks hat neither the chair
man OF the pOpulists nor the republ-
cans can furnish a correct and COM
plete list of the nominees of their
respective parties for congressman,
Judges and solicitors. The poulists
have in most cases endorsed the repub-
lican nominees for superior court
judges and solicitors; indeed SO far as
your correspondent can discover they
have not to this date endorsed a single
one Of the men the democrats have pat
up for those positions, though they
nave talked ~ceaselessly about a mon
partisan judiciary" and declared their
purpose to indorse with that end in
view.
The closest fight is in the 5th con-
gressional district where there are four
candidates. republican. i~ndependent
republican, democrat and populist.
Settle, the republican nominee, is the
present incumbent.
1t is clearly seen that the republicans
are dissatisfied with the fusion ar
langement though are urged on by
the pOpulistS.

many's Nominee Can be Elected.
WASHINGTON, October 19.-Reports
concerning the campaign for mayor of
New York, where the Tammany and
anti-Tammany fight is most sharply
joined, indicate a strong probability
that Straus, the Tammany candidate,
will not be able to hold the ordinary
Tammany vote, and is likely to be
beaten by a very large majority. The
fact of the Sun, the great Tammany
paper, opposing him with great bitter
ness is regarded as a serious matter. 1t
is understood, of course, hat the Suns
opposition arises from the differences
between Paul Dana and Straus, when
they were on h park commission, but
it is none the less serious for being
purely personal. Taking democratic
disaffection, the New York police scan
dals and all things together, it is pre-
dicted by some who have looked the
situation over intelligently that Straus
will be beaten by twenty or thirty
thousand.

New York Gamblers Organizing to Protect
BOOkmaking.
NEW YORK, October 1S.-The game of
politics is a deep one. and the friends
of racing in the state of New York are
now playing it for all it is worth. The
racing people are now alive to the dan
ger Of the anti-gambling amendment of
the constitution, carried to the consti-
utional convention by republican votes.
They are raising a large fund with
which to fight the amendment, and
whether it be a million dollars, or more
or less, it will be sufficient to have an
appreciable effect on the result. 1t was
said yesterday that the friends of rae
ing had about concluded that the
amendment could not be beaten on a
square vote before the people. No less
an authority than Peter DeLacy puts
the ma jOrity in. favor Of the anti-gam-
bling provision at 100, 900 votes. How
ever, even if the amendment passes, the
race tracks will not give up the fight.

NO RAILROAD TRUST FORMED.
The Report That Such Was in Contempla
ton Ii Rigidly Denied.

NEW YORK, October 1s.-Railway
managers deny the report that the
leading railroads of the country were
about to form a gigantic trust for the
purpose mainly Of reducing expenses.
The proposed trust, it was said, would
have absolute control of the traffic of
the country, and the result would be
the establishing of joint agencies at
the principal points throughout the
country. Senator Brice of Ohio was
quoted as saying that such a plan
would be desired by all railroad own
ers, but under existing circumstances
1t was an impossibility. The Western
passenger association has unanimously
agreed to join the Southern Pacific and
Pacific Mail in meeting the Canadian
Pacitcs rate to China from this city.
The rate is S25S.4j. and if the Canadian
road makes Il further reduction. it
would promptly be met.
