You are weak, "run-down,"
health is frail, l,strength gone.
Doctors call your case an
aemia-there is a fat-fam.
inc in your blood. Scott's
Emulsion of cod-liver oil,
with hypophosphites, is the
best food-means of getting
your strength back-your
doctor will tell you that.
He knows also that when
the digestion is weak it is
better to break up cod~liver
oil out of the body than to
burden your tired digestion
with it. SCOTS Emulsion
does that.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Judge
F'landrau argued the case before the
supreme court which brought him to
Washington two or three days ago,
and took his departure for Rome,
N. Y, last night. He will visit his
brother, DR.. Flandrau, at that place
for few days before going West.
Just before leaving Washington he
sent the following brief message to
his Democratic friends in Minnesota
through the G l o b e correspondent:
II cannot see any sense in Democrats
striking their colors before the first gun
of the approaching campaign has been
fired That was not the quality of De-
mocracy instilled into the rising gener-
alton when 1 was young. In those
days the leg.ons of Old Hickory were
still current political coin; and jack
son trained his followers to fight po-
litical battles after the same method
which. he followed with the British
army at New Orleans.
Now, there is no reason for discour-
agement over the Democratic defeats
last month, not particle. The Amer
ican people compose politically a very
independent body of free-born citizens.
They kick over the traces of all parties,
and break the harness and tear the adj
ministration wagon all to pieces upon
the slightest possible provocation-and
sometimes 1 think without any possi-
BILE reason. That was the case last
year. There was no reason founded
upon common sense why the country
should have pronounced so emphati-
cally against the Democratic party.
You see the times were hard, money
scarce, business slack and the voters
took occasion of an off year to express
their discomfort.
Yes, you are right. 1t was a very
emphatic expression when rock-ribbed
Kentucky, Missouri and Maryland
transferred themselves bodily into the
Republican column. But then, there
were local causes in those states lead
ing up to those surprising events. And

out by foreign competition. The
is a tariff on a variety of imports.
The Marquis of Salisbury, replying
to one of these deputations, said
that he could not hold out the slight
est prospect of protection, and eX-
planned that his famous speech at
Hastings in 1892 was misunderstood.
He added that when he denounced
Cobdenism and urged the country
to arm for an attack on the wall Of
tariffs, he never believed or expect
ed a restoration of protection. This,
with the replies of the other min
listers, was extremely disappointing
to great body of their supporters,
and the severe criticisms of some of
the sturdiest Conservative organs
which followed created quite a SEN
satiOn. The st. James Gazette con-
graduates the ministers on pleasing
the Radical press, whose caresses," I"
it says, may console Lord Salisbury
for the distinct chilliness of the
UniOniSt papers,"
The Standard remarks: Under a
minister thus pledged to free trade,
the farmers should have free trade
in the matter of sugar, fair competi-
ton against foreigners; foreign gov
ernments should be informed that
unless they cease paying a bounty
on sugar duty equal to that bounty
will be levied on it at our ports"
The Morning Post says: Lord
Salisbury would be far more in touch
with the sentiment and wishes of
the masses if he defended and ex-
panded his protection remarks at
Hastings. The bent of public opin-
ion is directly, strongly and firmly
to a speedy alteration Of the fiscal
system which only hurts those who
employ it."
INTERNATIONAL ATHLETICS.
In spite of the cry of professional
ISM which the sporting papers here
have indulged in concerning the Ameri-
can athletes, the London Athletic club
will shortly challenge the New York
club to a contest in London during the
summer OIL 1850. y. d. Midi III, pISSi-
dent of the London club, said yester-
day that a challenge would be sent to
the New York Athletic club, this hav-
ing been the sentiment of the London
athletes ever since their return from
New York. The Englishmen say they
had nothing to complain of as to their
treatment while in America, although
they complained of the hot weather
that prevailed while they were on the
other side of the Atlantic, and they
think they will do better next time.
The London Athletic club is already
in correspondence with the various uni
Versities for the purpose of securing
the best material available. President
Martin spoke very highly of American
athletes, and added: 1--WE shall be
glad to meet and welcome an Ameri-
can team in England
Considerable comment has beer
aroused in sporting circles by the
speeches made at the recent annual
dinner of the London Athletic club al

Safe Blowers in Hard Luck.

CINCINNATI, O., Dec. 4-Safe
blowers broke into the office of A. NJ.
Levin & Co., lumber dealers at Nc
Lean avenue and Bank street, and in
stead of blowing the safe open blew it
shut.
The robbers evidently did not try the
safe door and went to work as if it
were locked. They drilled hole under
the combinatio breaking two drills,
then filled the hole with powder. The
explosion blew the combination to and
locked the door.
The robbers abandoned the job, and
when Mr.. Levin arrived this morning
he had to send for a safe expert to
open the door.

to continue the business in conjunc-

Sylvanus F. and Oscar Trounstine.
They say Oscar has overdrawn his
account $4,000 during the past year
and that he once threatened to as

has found fault with the play and its
clever performance. The provincial

appears, become much exercised by

A PAGE OF ANCIENT HISTORY.
 The first seven volumes of the Dan- bury town records were distroyed by fire at the burning of the town, April 27, TIT, by the British forces under Tryon's command. The probate records were saved. They date back to about TAO All probate business before that date was done in the town of Fairfield. The loss of the first volumes of records was an irretrievable loss in many respects.
 The doipgs of the town meetings, lay outs of the highways and the original surveys of the land were all lost, and with them the greater part of the early history of Bethel, which was part of Danbury, until 1855. To partly repair the loss of the old records. the General Assembly passed an act to appoint a committee of seven persons to find old boundary lines or make new, and record the same in 8 new record book of the town. The highways were all laid out over again so many rods wide and re- corded in book Mo-, ? or No 3. The town for some reason failed (probably for the want of the money) to make 8 regular survey of the roads, consequent- ly many enchroachments have been made on the same from time to time, and the doings of the town meeting go to show that the matter has been a. bone of contention tor..more than century on account of the loss of the old records. We have in our possession an old deed of the re-survey of the farm of Elijah Barnum, who lived in Elmwood district of this town. His old house was occupied for many years by the late Carlos Jen- nings and was removed within the past two years after it had been occupied as dwelling for about 150 years. The survey was made sonn after the revolu- tionary war and dated Danbury, May 4, 17s5, ,and the following prominent men of that day have signed their names as committee: James See,ye, Thomas Tay- Tor. John Benedict, Daniel Taylor, Eli Mygatt, Joseph Beebe and Thomas Ben- edict. We also copy part of deed from Danbury land records, book No. 3, date 17s2: 'sThe committee surveyed a tract on the East side of Shelter Rock, about IS acres, and bounded south by land of Daniel and Benjamin Hickok, east by highway to Gen Gold Selleck Silliman, Rev Robert Ross and Rev Sam.
