HE WAS IN LUCK.

a Shot Which Was as Successful
as it Was Accidental.
A veteran of the Aroostook war
tells a story Of how good luck
brought a poor marksman out Of a
bad scrape. Governor Fairfield Wis.,
tied Houlton and reviewed the
troops stationed there as comman-
der.in-chief, and of course, it was
the biggest kind of a military
event. The Dexter Rifle Company
had some crack shots in it, and as
part of the exercises in honor of
the Governors coming they were
marched out for target practice.
AS they made some excellent hits
(the figure of an Indian being a
mark the Governor expressed his
pleasure in their proficiency and
said loud enough for the men to
hear:
"Now, | would like to see your
very best marksman try his skill"
In the company was man not
ed for never being able to hit any
thing, and at once, in a spirit Of
deviltry, the cry ran along the line
repeating his name in answer to
the Governors call. Without
tiinching he stepped six PAGES to
the front and saluted:
"Where do you want me to hit
him, GOVERNOR" he asked with
perfect compOsure.
"Just at the bottom of his left
ear, sir" said the Chief Magistrate
pointing at the mark.
"All right, sir" The soldier rails.
ed his gun, shut his eyes and turn
ed his head away as usual and
fired. The men were all on a broad
grin at the great joke Of the thing
but when the bullet struck the
mark, whiting off a piece of the
Indians left ear, there was shout
OF surprise that could be heard all
over the township.

Danger from Catarrh::

The most important feature about
that very common complaint. catarrh
in the head, is its tendency to develope
into some other more serious and dan
gerous disease. The foul matter drop
ping from the head into the bronchial
tubes OF lungs is very liable to lead to
bronchitis or consumption, that
destroyer which causes more desths in
this country than any other disease.
As catarrh originates in impurities in
the blood, local applications can do but
little good. The common sense meth
cd of treatment is to purify the blood.
and for this purpose there is no pre-
paration superior to Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. The powerful action of this med
icine upon he>blood expels every inn
purity. and by so doing cures catarrh
and gives health to the entire organism.

The Best Plaster

Dampen piece of flannel with
Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bind it
on over the seat of pain. 1t is better
than any plaster. When the lungs are
sore such an application on the chest
and another on the back between the
shoulder blades will often prevent
pneumonia. There is nothing SO good
for lame back or pain in the side.
A sore throat can nearly always be
cured in one night by applying fan
mel bandage dampened with Pain Balm.

BOTH SIDES BLAMED.
The Strike Commission Makes It's
Report to the President.
Censure for the General Managers, the
PnIimsns and the StrIkers-CIeye-
lands Policy Justifed-Its
Recommendation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l3.-The United
States government report on the great
railway strike in connection with the
Pullman trouble was made public
Monday. The report, which is
signed by the federal labor COM
missioner, Carroll d. Wright, and his
fellow investigators, John ID. Herman,
of New York, and Nicholas f. Worth
ington, of Illinois. is addressed to
President Cleveland. The report
strongly censures both the General
Managers association and the Ameri-
can Railway union for the methods en-
ployed by each. and says:
THE refusal of the General Managers assoc
citation to recognize and deal with such com
binatlon of labor as the American Railway
union seems arrogant and absurd, when we
consider its standing before the law. its as
sumptions and its past and obviously contem-
plated future action"
The Pullman Strike.
The Pullman strike is discussed at
great length, and says that while the
wages of the workingmen were re-
duced to the lowest point possible,
with its attendant suffering, none of
the salaries of the officers, managers
or superintendent were reduced. Re-
ductionsi in these would not have been
so severely felt, would have shown
good faith, would have relieved the
harshness of the situation and would
have evinced genuine sympathy with
labor in the disasters of the times.
The report continues:
= The demand Of the employees for the wages
OF June 1898 was clearly 'unjustihable. The
business in May, 1894, could not pay the wages
Of June, 1893 Reduction was carried to ex-
cess, but the company was hardly more at
fault therein than were the employees in in
sisting upon the wages Of June. 1893.
las between man and man the demand for
some rent reduction was fair and reasonable
under all the circumstances. Some slight con-
cession in this regard would probably have
sverted the strike. provided the promise not to
discharge the men who served upon the CON-
mittee had been more strictly regarded"
Troops Were Needed.
President Cleyeland's course in send
ing troops to the scenes of the dis
turbances is upheld. The commission
says that it has no evidence that the
officers of the American Railway union
at any time participated in or advised
intimidation, violence or destruction of
property. They knew and fully appre-
ciated that as soon as mobs ruled the
organized forces of society would crush
the mobs and all responsible for them
in the remotest degree, and that this
meant defeat. The attacks upon cor
porations and monopolies by the lead
ers in their speeches are similar to
those to be found In the magazines
and industrial works OF the day.
Favors Arbitration.
In conclusion the report favors ar.
biEation and the creation of body
similar to the interstate commerce
commission, whose duty it shall be to
investigate disputes between rail-
ways and employees, and thinks these
plans will have a tendency 10 do away
with much of the strife between them.
