Evils of Democratic MisruIe.

A reduction of twenty per cent. in
the scale of wages within the year
bears eloquent testimony to the evil
influence of Democratic ascendency.
This is not all due to a single issue,
such as the tariff, but to the general
policy of the Democratic party and
the terrible doubt and uncertainty con-
corning the future so long as a Demo-
cratic admin ,tration is in power. Nor
is it due T. one branch CT the govern
ment alone, but to the government as
whole-the administrative and legis-
lative branches combined. 1t cannot
be fairly said that single thing has
yet been done by the admin tratio n
to win the unqualified confidence Of
the PEOPLE. It's dipl pmacy has been
childish, showing such an absolute ig-
norance or foolish disregard of prece-
dents as to create astonishment and
d smay, fer reliance on the old en-
ployes and the files of the State De-
partment ought certainly to have pre-
vented some follies which have caused
a general sense of humiliation.
Even in details of domestic admins
tration, where there ought to be no
room for errors, some very serious
blunders have occurt ed; and it is the
combination of all these blunders, the
general impression of insecurity which
they diffuse, that has done the mischief,
the effects of which are always felt
first by the wage-earners-the class
least able to bear them. There is a
feeling abroad that the people made a
great mistake in 1892 in electing Mr..
Cleveland and a Democratic Congre s.
1t is felt now, when it is too late, that
the people accepted the totally i'm
aginary estimate of a few enthusiasts
concerning the wisdom and statesman
ship OF the President, and that in pur-
suing thi, will-o'-the-wisp they blinded
themselves to the legitimate con Sc
quences OF Democratic doctrines. 1t is
not single feature of the political
situation that must be held responsible
for the evils which have come upon the
country, but the whole situation, which
cannot be partially remedied until the
election in November. = Baltimore

A Loaded Farm.

For many years a sandy mound on the
H. A. Maize farm, just south of this
city, has been known as the hiding place
of the fox. This winter the animals have
been unusually numerous and created
havoc in the henneries. The losses be-
came SO great that the farmers held a
meeting and decided to blow up the
mound and rid themselves of the pests.
A large quantity of dynamite was pur-
chased, and four large charges were put
into the ground. For some reason the
fuses failed to discharge the explosive,
and the stuff is now buried in the mound.
The mound is one of the most productive
spots on the farm, and as the farmer
does not know just where the dynamite
lies he is in a pickle to know what to do,
as he is afraid to dig into the mound for
fear he may strike the stuff and send
himself to kingdom come. The owner
of the farm insists that the dynamite
must be found, as he realizes that the
fact of it being buried on the farm is 60

ever render several acres of his best land

SOMETHING in THIS NAME.

But tho Man Whose Property It IL Wishes
' He Had Not Recalled 1t. q. ::
The mystery that has been surround
ing the identity of David Draughn has
been solved and in way that is likely to
give David much trouble. Draughn was
several weeks ago dragged from the rail
road tracks in the south end of the city
just in time to save him from being
mangled. It was then discovered that
he had been beaten almost to death. He
was carried to the Grady hospital, and
when he recovered physically it was
found that his mind was a perfect blank
as to past events-so much so that he
even did not know his own name.
Finally under the care of the surgeons
there came back inklings of the past, and
one day last week he electrified every
body about the hospital by rushing about
and declaring he t'had it," He had caught
what he said was his last name. He was
taken by detectives up into North Caro-.
lima, and at Culberson, near Murphy, he
found friends, but he was not Draughn,
at least not there. He had been known
there as DR.. F.. D. Heath and had lived
there for several months last summer,
but Heath and Draughn are one and the
same man, and it developed that under
the former name he has three living
wives. One lives in Salem, No. 2 in
Asheville and No. in Bryson City, Va.
His mother, Mrs. Frank Barr, the wife
of a printer, also lives near Salem. He
will be prosecuted for bigamy and is
very sorry he has found out who he is.

Hot In Australia,

The weather in Australia during the
antipodean summer has been unusually
hot and oppressive. In Adelaide during
January the thermometer several times
registered over 100 degrees in the shade,
and one day it climbed to 1O7 in the
shade and 1853 in the sun. In Melbourne
the 0Onotch has been reached more than
once, and the scorching north winds have
made the atmosphere exceedingly op-
pressive. The foregoing figures are from

ably do not represent by several degrees

Professor Stevenson Has Completed . Won.
derfu1 Invention After Years Of Labor.
Professor r. E. Stevenson. well
known educator and writer Of Quincy.
Mass, announces the completion Of an
invention on which he has been laboring
for years, which, he says, will revolu-
tonize the present methods of obtaining
motive power. Professor Stevenson has
pursued his investigations and expert
ments in Quincy all winter and has at
last brought his idea to q head. Profess
or Stevenson said: "The forces which
have thus far been utilized by the genius
OF man are the laws of gravitation and
chemical reaction. In the broad field of
research and investigation we find the
possibilities of the future in molecular
attraction, musical vibration and the re-
fraction of light. ,..
ITO understand the theory on which l
have been laboring you must understand
the correlation of forces or the transmu-
tation OF energies. We use force to pro-
duce light. It is upon the reverse of
this theory that I have labored, and my
experiments are at last proving satisfac-
tory. I have found that the heat of an
ordinary kitchen stove generates energy
sufficient, If controlled, to drive the ma
chinery OF the Pillsbury mills, and the
flames OF Bunson electric burner would
furnish power to light by electricity 1, ,o00
lights"
In Professor Stevenson's experimental
machine, however, the heat of the sun
alone has been used. This machine con-
sists of three brass cylinders connected
by means of tubes and valves with q
glass reflector behind the central cylin.
der. A piston moving laterally connect.
ing with balance wheel gives the mo.
ton. The shaft on which the balance
wheel hangs passes through the end Of
the machine and contains a drive pulley,
which makes the force available. This
machine is operated by the sun, working
with great rapidity.-Boston journal.

Deafness Cannot be Cured


BY local applications as they cannot
reach the, diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by: an
intlamed condition of the mucous Iin-
ing OF the eustachian tube. When
this tube is inf1amed you have rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the infiamma-
tlon can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever: nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh.
which is nothing but an inflamed
