Captain Wyle knew where to find Ike
Bakers wife. She had moved into
towntwo weeks before, leaving the farm
to take care OF itself. That was Il OF
the points in the plan presented by Ike
and accepted by her. She knew that
Jackson had been beaten and was on the
retreat, but she did not know of the
fate of Ike and many of his comrades.
Some Of those who escaped both death
and capture had seen Ike so down, and
it was certain he had fallen into Fed
eral hands. Mrs. Baxter fell to sobbing
as she heard the news from the captain,
but her sorrow did not last long.
.Drat that Ike fur a fool!' she sud
denly exclaimed as grief gave place to
indignation. Didn't lie un promise
me last thing befo' him went back that
if him ever got into another fout he un

I could git hands on he un, I'd kill

REV. MR. MEURY SURPRISED.
Offended at Ministers Who Signed a
Petition Behind His Back.

The letter of prominent ministers of this
city to the Board of Freeholders, asking for
the appointment of the Rev. Mr.. La Rue as
chaplain at Snake Hill, caused much sur
prise to the Reu. Mr.. Meury, the present
chaplain, and his many friends. When the
Rev. Mr.. Meury was seen in regard to the
matter he said: MANY of the in
mates of the various institutions do not

WASHINGTON WORKERS.
And the Great Dangers That
sOI Surround Them.
SENATORS INTERVIEWED.
Considerable Excitement Has Been
Down of so Many Prominent

WASHINGTON, DC, June t15.-The excite
ments of Congress aud the interest caused by
varying schemes and various measures have
been o~vershadowed of late by a revelation
of the alarming death rate among public
men, and the additional fact that in nearly
every case the cause can be traced to one
source. The sad and sudden death of ex-
Postmaster General Frank Hatton, who was
stricken at his desk and died shortly after
wards, recalls the deaths of Secretaries
Folger, Window, Chandler and Chase, and
Senators Sumner, Beck, Cameron and others.
Now it has dawned upon the minds of the
publ c men that there must be some one
great reason for all these untimely deaths,
andit has been traced directly to that great
modern trouble which seems to be a natural
.scourge Bright's diseasesof the kidneys.
Am Interview with a number of prominent
S41en on the subject shows the interest they
feeE lMr. j. Henderson, Wilkinson, the we'll

certain that if men and women generally
realized the wonderful power of this great
remedy there would be less sickness, fewer

Rev. Dr.. j. E. Rankin, DID,, formerly
chaplain of the Senate, confirmed all that
Mr.. Wilkinson had said and cited many
other cases that had come under his notice
Where Warmers Safe Cure had restored the

the same. 1t was generally admitted that
the strains of life were wearing, but it is

nothing had ever been known equal to the
great remedy | nave above described.

Tariff Delay and Business Ruin.

The suborned Republican newspa-
pers are once again clamoring for the
craftsmanship of the party to pre-
vent the passage of any tariff bill by
the present Congress. We quote the
expression from the Philadelphia
Press, which r~eiterates that any and
all methods are justifiable for the de-
feat of the Industry blighting" meas
ure proposed by the Democracy.
The Republican representatives in
Congress seem to find tue advice
good. Yesterday Mr.. Dolph, in plain
terms, came out in favor of p%rotract-
ing and p%rotracting the debate. Plain
ly and frankly he said he thought
the bill could be defeated by delay,
and he was in favor of doing it.
As a practical comment upon this
position of the Republican party,
we desire to direct attention to the
opening sentence of BrGdstfeets
estate of Trade" for the current
week. 1t says
The practical arrival of midsummer season and
the usual slackening of business. extreme heat and
need of rain In northwestern and southeastern
States. CONTINUED UNCERTAINTY AS TO H
TARIFF FROM AN
TICIPATING EMAND NEXT FALL, together with
the large number of idle wage-earners in industrial,
mining and other lines, all combine to produce con-
tinued dullnessH in business.
The Weekly Review" of r. q.
Dun s. Go. emphasizes the facts of the
Industrial situation The actual out
put of pig iron for the week ending
June / was only 62,517 tons against
1876, 1872 tons, April 1, and 174,029 a year
ago. This, it is fair to say. is partly
due to the coke and coal strikes. But
there is only one way of accounting
for the fact that ''many boot and shoe
shops have stopped" or that 'the
wooden mills are closing rapidly" or
that imports at New York rule IS per
cent. less than last year.
But what does a McKinleyite care?
The country may go to smash now.
ali the small fry may be swamped
for all he cares, and the werkin gmen
may go hungry. He is in no hurry.
He is certain that when business
does resume he will easily recoup all
his losses, so long as his slice Of the
protection cake is not taken away.

Board of Health whitewash.

We are not surprised to see the
members of the iso-called County
Health Board undertaking to white
wash the inspectors in the matter ,ef
Saturday and Sunday holidays. The
only trouble is theyicoms to the,front
too late with their explanations.
Their versions of the case and their
statement of the custom which pre-
walls do not agree with the statement
already publicly made by Inspector
Tierney, which statement is beyond
all doubt true, Mr.. Tierney having
made it to place himself in a good
light, as he thought, before the
public.
There is no reason to expect any re-
form from the County Health Board.
1t is a thoroughly useless and in
efficient body. 1t an anomaly in the
sanitary system of the State. 1t is,
indeed, worse than useless, for it i'm
pedes the action of the highly eff
cient city boards.
There is only one plan that offers a
ehance of improvement in the present
case-that is, the Intervention of the
Grand Jury. The trial of one or two
officials would at least make the in
efficiency of the board q public scan
dial. and might result in wholesome
legislation when the Houses recon
vene in the fall.

Two features of the bicycle habit
are becoming a very serious nuisance
on the Hill. One is the practice of
riding on the sidewalks. This is
the less of the two and is mainly con-
fined to small boys. The other is
the practice of riding without lamps
at night. This is a violation of a
city ordinance, and it is morally a
serious offence. We do not know how
n conscientious mar Or woman can
go dashing about the streets at head
long speed without anything to warn
pedestrians of danger. There are on
record very many serious accidents
caused by this reckless way of riding
and it is only a question of time when
