A Terrible VisitRnt.

Pain is always terrible visitant, and often
domiciles itself with one for life The infection
is preventable, in cases of rheumatism by
timely resort to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which checks the encroachments of this obstinate
and dangerous malady at the outset. The term
dangerous" is used advisedly, for rheumatism
is always liable to attack the vital organs.and
terminate life. No testimony is more conclusive
and concurrent than that of physicians who tes
tify to the excellent effect Of the Bitters in this
disease. Persons incur a wetting in rainy or
snowy weather, and who are exposed TO draughts
should use the Btters preventive of i'll effects
Malaria, dyspepsia liver and kidney trouble
nervousness and debility are also among the
ailments to which this popular medicine is
adapted. For the infirmities, soreness and stiff
ness of the aged it is highly beneficial.

The laboring man of Japan, since he
has begun to compete with his western
brothers in the production of iron and
cotton goods, Is affording subject of
amusing study. Mr.. E. c. Potter, for
merly Of the Illinois Steel Works, who is
in Japan on business, is telling the
readers of the "Iron Age' some curious
facts about these laborers They never
drink beer or whiskey, and their keenest
delight is in observing the beauties of
nature. Some of them go miles to view
chrysanthemum shows. AS to personal
expenditures, the Japanese live on next
to nothing. At present the Japanese
workingman can get hot bath for a
cent theatrical entertainment for a
nickel Six months of the year he does
not wear any clothes. He does not care
for meat and he eats his fish raw. His
expenses being so small he can work for
very little pay.
With the amusement which these pc
culiarities create must come little feel
ing of uneasiness to the western nations.
A competitor of such characteristics is
formidable; and in these days of cheap
and rapid ocean freights, the labor of one
country is soon laid down in another in
the form of bundles and bales of manu-
factured goods Unless the living ex-
penses of the man of Japan can be raised,
those Of the man of Europe, or even OF
America, are liable to be diminished.

The gathering at New Sweden today
marks the gratifying progress of the col
ony founded twenty-five years ago. 1t
also brings prominently to mind some
landmarks in the progress of the rest of
the State of Maine in that time When
Mr. Thomas led his colonists into Aroos-
took county in 1870, the st. John river
afforded the easiest route. The party
who gathered yesterday to celebrate the
event were carried in few hours from
Portland to Caribou in a palace car, pass
ing within few miles of Katahdin and
through forests formerly accessible only
to the lumbermen and hunters. Develop
ment in Maine has moved with health
full pace, and point gained has rarely
been lost.

a large number of the officers famous in
the Civil War, gained the experience
that made them famous. Robert E. Lee
was one of the most prominent and active
officers of engineers; Ulysses S. Grant did
effective and faithful service in an humber
rank; Phil Kearney lost an arm in a
dashing charge on the gates of the city
while Ewell, Thomas, and many others
were in the number of the junior officers.
The exposition will not of course, com
pare in size and splendor with that at
Chicago; but it will undoubtedly be a
creditable display of the resources and
achievements of our sister republic.

The Worlds Fair of Mexico in 1896
ought to be success and attract many
from the United States. In the first
place Mexico is an interesting country
for an American, presenting as it does a
civilization so radically different from
our own. In the second place. the plateau
Of Mexico is historic ground in which we
have a great interest. The Mexican war
does not reflect credit upon the statesmen
who melted it; but to the soldiers of our
army it gave everlasting laurels. General
Scott's campaign from the coast to the
City Of Mexico, with an army of only
about six thousand men, is one of the
most brilliant achievements in the history
Of war. Many of the landmarks of the
siege Of the city, such as the Castle of
Chapultapeo. still stand. At that siege

CrOftOn's Narrow Escape.
Col. R. E. Crofton, commandant of Fort
Sheridan, near Chicago, and we'll known
throughout the west as formerly COM
mandant at Fort Stanton, New Mexico,
and Fort Lewis, Colorado, was shot and
wounded Thursday afternoon at Fort
Sheridan by First Lieut.. s. s. Prague,
company F, 18th infantry. At 4 O'Clock
while the colonel was reviewing the dress
parade, Lieut.. Prague, who had been con-
fined IN the hospital, came upon the
grounds and deliberately fred three shots
at his superior officer. The first shot
went wide of its mark, the second went
through the colonel's coat and the third
grazed his abdomen.
Prague would have fred again had not
the colonel jumped from his horse and
grappled with him. Lieut.. Prague had been
drinking and was practically maniac.
Being so much younger and stronger than
Col. Crofton, the latter was no match for
him and was thrown to the ground before
Lieut.. w. H. Pillow and others rushed to
his rescue and disarmed the would-be
murderer. As soon as Lieut.. Prague was
subdued an ambulance was called to re-
move the wounded colonel, and Prague
himself was escorted to the guard house,
where he is now being closely watched.
Why the young lieutenant should have
attempted to take the life of his colonel
seems to be something of a mystery,
though it is known that he is hardly re-
sponsible for his actions. Mr.. Prague is
addicted to drink, and has on two oc-
casions been an inmate of the asylum for
drunkards at Dwight.
