Merry Rate War.

CHICAGO, ILL.-The excursion agree
ment of the Western Passenger Associa-
ton was given staggering blow by the
news from st. Louis that the Chicago
and Alton was making rate of 500 for
the round trip between st. Louis and
Denver for the convention of the Home
opathy Society--a cut of $3.50 from the
regularly authorized rate. The Missouri
Pacific at once put on the $40 rate, and
the Atchison and Topeka lost no time in
following suit. The other lines also
joined in without loss of time. General
Passenger Agent Charlton OF the Chicago
and Alton denied that rates we're being
cut by his line, but the St. Louis agents
of the other lines were positive and
unanimous in their charges against thai
road. Chairman Caldwell is still hope
full that he will be able to keep the
trouble within bounds, but the prospects
are not bright.

McKinley.s Mite Returned.

MAssILLoN. 0.-The miners relief
committee of Massillon has returned to
Governor Mckinley the $40 he contrib
uted to their subscription for the relief
OF unemployed miners on May 20, which
he spoke of in his letter of transmission
as his "mite." This is the letter from
the relief committee: "Inclosed you
will find $40, your donation to the miners
of Massillon. They unanimously refuse
to accept mite from the hand that as
sisted in shifting them. Your donation
was solicited because the miners believed
you were at least as much in sympathy
with them as an ordinary, everyday cit
izen, but since you have divested your
self your true character stands out in
glowing colors, and they abhor your
charity. Your ambition in a political
way, so far as the miners are concerned,
is sure to be gratified henceforth."

SAN FRAscrsco, CAL.-There is move
ment on foot at Vallejo to raise by sub
scription a fund sufficient to erect a
splendid monument over the graves OF
the sailors OF the wrecked United States
war vessels Vandalia and Nipsic, who
lost their lives in the terrible hurricane
which swept the Bay OF Apia in 1889. 1t
will be remembered that shortly after
that awful disaster in Samoa, which re-
suited in the loss OF so many brave sail
ors, nineteen OF the Nandaiia and Nip
sic's dead were brought to this port and
inferred in the cemetery at Vallejo. I'm
til recently, however. only plain board
has marked the location OF their graves,
although it has been hoped that some
steps would be taken by the government
to place monument over the spot.
Friends OF the dead sailors, however,
have hoped in vain. Unfortunately there
were no funds at Mare Island which
could be used for such purpose. Those
who have the plan in charge propose to
solicit subscriptions from residents of
Vallejo and the navy yard and also from
men aboard different warships, who will
no doubt gladly contribute their mite to-
ward such fitting tribute.

Wine Growers Over Their Crisis
Pacific Coast News.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.-There Is good
news for the wine growers OF California
A syndicate is organizing which will be
willing to pay living prices to vineyard
lists. Capitalists who have money in
vested in viticulture, banks which hold
mortgages on vine lands and dealers who
do not believe in killing the goose that
lays the golden egg, and who represent
an aggregate OF $40, ,0OO, 600, are about to
combine TO place one Of California's
principal industries once more on a pay
ing basis. They have an interest in pro-
tecting the 100000, 900 invested in wine
making, and they stand ready to pursue
a liberal policy toward the producer.
They propose to put $1,000, 600 in the
scheme and TO incorporate for FIVE years.
They ask that from 30 to 80 per cent Of
the growers shall bind themselves TO
give options on their crops. The propo-
sition to organize. the syndicate does not
come from its members, but from the
committee OF wine growers recently APP
pointed to devise some means by which
the crisis in the industry might be
overcome. These committeeman visited
bankers, capitalists and dealers, laid be-
fore them plan OF action and obtained
provisional consent. Now they are at
work on the producers, and hope within
ten days or a fortnight to obtain suffi-
cient options TO launch the project to

Pierce County FINANCES.

TACOMA, WAsH.-Inasmuch as the
next county tax levy, to be made in 0c-
tober, cannot be made available for de-
fraying the county election expenses this
fall, the County Commissioners are dis
cussing their powers so far as entering
into the usual contracts for election ex-
penses. The County Prosecuting Attor-
ney has several times held that the coun-
ty, having reached its legal limit ol
indebtedness, cannot legally contract
more expense bills. Elections hereto
fore in this county have cost from $4,O0C
to 1000. The present incumbents ex-
pect to remain in Office should no elec.
tion be held, which is not probable.

Hard-Times Prices.

SEATTLE, WAsH.-The contract for
macadamizing the South Seattle road,
let recently by the County Commission
ers at SO cents running foot, shows
how hard times have reduced the cost
and values of everything. In 1888, when
this road was first planked, it cost $l.10
per running foot for the material alone,
the residents of the district furnishing
the labor gratis. The new road when
finished should last thirty years. The
county in this instance furnished the
quarry, from which the contractors can
help themselves.

and that letter of invitation was now

with Oxford's records. Yale's showing is
better than the Englishmen's. Oxford
stipulates that all the Yale men must
conform to the A. A. A. rules, and in ad-
dition all competitors in the Oxford ale
athletic contests must have taken part
in the recent Yale-Harvard and Oxford
Cambridge sports. The contest will be
held on the Queens club ground in Ken

The mining industry in the vicinity of
Baker City is steadily going forward.
The Virtue mine recently yielded $9,-

will soon be added to the mill, and a
concentrating plant has already been
added. Arun is being made at the San
ger mine. Only about 100 tons OF rock
will be crushed for the present, but there
is some prospect of the mine being op-
Grated on an extensive scale before long.
The Nelson placer claim is running full
blast with an abundance of water. The
Robbins mine on Pine creek has started
up again. This mine had been lying
idle for year. Several Baker City busi-
ness men, who are interested in mining
properties in the Cable Cave districts,
find it impossible to reach their proper
ties, owing to the great amount of fallen
timber. the result of the recent wind
storm that passed over that portion OF
Baker county. 1t is stated that the road
is in an impossible condition, and that
it will undoubtedly remain SO for some

Neuralgia and nervousness are fearfully
prevalent. There is no more painful
disease than neuralgia. 1t indicates a
diseased state of nerves and blood and the
most terrible suffering is often present.
Most everybody is nervous, and this is
more dangerous than most people think,
for, as in the case of the well-known S. w.
Anderson, Esq, of Warren, Mass it is
very liable to lead to nervous prostraton
and paralysi., if not cured. He writes q S
follows about his wonderful recovery:
"Some time ago l was afflicted with ner-
vousness and neuralgia, The pains l suf
fered were frightful. They commenced
in my legs and arms and then went to my
head and face Finally had a paralytic
shock on my right side which laid me up
completely.

agony from neuralgia and was nearly dead
with pain. took everything l ever heard
of but got no better. l consulted four
doctors but they did me no good. They
said Their, was nothing but morphine pills
that would help me.
81 took, them for nearly year and was no
better but began to get even worse.
heard of a skiful doctor in Worcester,
Mass, and went there to see him. He
said he could cure me in one week. / staid
there three days and then went home.
The day after l got home l was taken
worse than ever l had been before and my
suffering was more than | could endure.
81 continued to grew worse every day
| all through the fall and winter, then
became so bad that l had the pain almost
constantly, and could not have lived but
a very short time longer if help had not
been very close at hand.
"Mv wife saw the advertisement of DR.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy
and she wanted me to use it. Having
