In looking around to see where
you can reduce expenses the coming
year, don't cut off your home paper.
You may, perhaps, find in one issue
an article that will pay you several
times the cost. If the number of
farmers who have been swindled by
the vampires that are laying for
them with their signing of agents
appointments, which in a few weeks
turn.up in some bank in the shape
OF note which has to be paid, or
want to buy your property at big
price, and get you to betting on
cards just for fun, would take a
paper or two, they would see all of
these nefarious methods exposed,
and many thousands of dollars would
be saved by them.

Iurder, but before the murdered
mans body was found, he went with
James, the prisoner, to James room
at the Carpenter residence to have
him change his clothes that the
sheriff might get the suit James had
on. While James was in the act of
disrobing be kept fumbling with the
watch pocket in his pantaloons, and
contrived to upset the lantern, put.
ting out the light. When light was
procured again James had his pan
falcons on the floor standing on
them and trying to kick something
under the bed in the room. The
sheriff, STOPPING down to see what
this suspicious action meant, found
the gold watch of the deceased with
the chain attached thereto carefully
wrapped around the stem of the
watch. Previous to this James had
told the sheriff and other witnesses
that his father had on his person
when last seen alive that gold watch,
$50 in money, a bunch of k eys and
silver punch. Sheriff Lapp also took
from James person SlS.29 in half
dollars, quarters, dimes, nickels and
pennies.
John @. Barclay, another witness
for the Commonwealth, testified that
upon night soon after the murder,
in passing through an alley in the
rear of the Carpenter home, he heard
jim tell his mother that the old man
was out of the way and all that they
had to do now was to get hold of his
money. In fact the Commonw wealth

CONSUL TO SAMOA.
Cleveland'S New Envoy, James h.
Mulligan, Arrives.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 26.-James
H. Mulligan, of Lexington, KY, the
newly appointed Consul-General to
Samoa, arrived in the city last night
direct from Louisville and registered
at the Lick House. His son, J. j.
Mulligan, accompanies him, and will
act as his fathers secretary at Apia.
Mr.. Mulligau was the editor of the
Lexington Transcript, one of the most
able journals in the State, at the time
of his appointment, and is another
notable exception to the "rgid'' rule
made by President Cleveland not to
name newspaper men for office.
The new Consul General is a pleas
ant looking, pleasant talking gentle
man of about 30, and enjoyed, aside
from his newspaper reputation, high
position at the Kentucky bar. He has
served twelve years in the General
Assembly of the "Blue Grass" State,
and had the honor of nominating the
Hon. J. G. Carlisle for Senator. He
was nominated and confirmed to his
new position last March, but has been
this late in assuming the duties on ac-
count of sickness and the delays incl
dent to getting his affairs into shape
to leave behind for four years.
In the meantime, however, Consul
General Mulligan has been putting in
his spare moments reading up Sa-
moan affairs, and goes to the post as
thoroughly familiar with the situation
as a stranger possibly could. He will
plunge into the 'furore consularis,n
as Robert Louis Stevenson puts it,
prepared to withstand the blandish-
ments of a king, whose munificent
allowance of $50 a month often leaves
him in the hole for a flyer or tenner.
He has read the report of acting
Consul-General Blackjack, and, while
he states that he goes to his post en-
tirely uninstructed, it is no more than
probable that he views with favor that
officials recommendations for disarm-
amept of the natives and the contin-
uance of the tripartite protectorate
under the Berlin treaty.
Mr.. Mulligan is a passenger on
the Monowai, and was with Con-
sul-General Mills and Vice-Consul
Boyd for some time after the Mon
walls arrival.

THE PHILADELPHIA.
She Will Soon Leave for San
Francisco to be Cleaned.

New YORK, July 22.-The Trib-
une's Washington correspondent
telegraphs as follows: Secretary
Herbert has sent orders to Admiral
Walker directing him to return
home in the Philadelphia and re-
linquish his command of the Pa
cifc squadron to Commodore
Beardslee at San Francisco. These
orders will be sent by the steamer
leaving San Francisco on the Goth,
and should be delivered to the Ad-
miral not later than August I'd.
AS the Philadelphia is already
coaled it is expected that she will
sail for home a day or SO later, but
on account of the foul condition of
her hull below the water line she
may not reach San Francisco be-
fore August 10Th. On her arrival
at the Mare Island Navy Yard
Admiral Walker will haul down
his flag which will be Immediately
replaced by Commodore Boards
lees pennant, and the Admiral
will come East to take charge of
the naval academy.
The Philadelphia will be locked
and thoroughly overhauled prepar-
atory to a cruise in South Ameri-
can waters. For a week or two, if
not longer, Hawaii may be left
without the protection afforded by
United States war ship in Homo
lulu harbor. 1t has been decided
by the Administration that no ne
cessity exists for keeping an Adj
miral in Hawaiian waters, and the
next United States navy COM
mander to protect American inter-
ests in the islands will have cap
tain's rank. The cruiser Charles
ton, Captain Coffin, is under orders
to proceed to Honolulu as soon as
she can be made ready.

Kenneth Bazemore had the good
fortune to receive small bottle OF
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy when three mem
bers of his family were sick with
dysentery. This one small bottle
cured them all and he had some left
which he gave TO Geo. w. Baker, a
prominent merchant of the place,
Lewiston, n G., and it cured him of
the same complaint. When troubled
with dysentery, diarrhoea, collie or
cholera morbus, give this remedy
trial and you will be more than
pleased with the result. The praise
that naturally follows its introduc-
ton and use has made it very popular.
