The unequaled demand for Paine's eel
cry compound among the people of this
State is but an index of the great good that
it is doing
Not only in this vicinity, not only in
every Western State, but everywhere in the
United States.
Paine's celery compound, the wonderful
remedy that makes people well, is beyond
question the most reliable production of
modern medical science.
Nobody disputes it.
From the day it was first prescribed by
that most eminent of American physicians,
Prof. Edward f. Phelps, it has been recon-
mended, prescribed and its merits extolled
by the ablest of physicians. The best med
ical journals have.sdevoted almost unlim-
tied space to the cures it has effected.
The daily press of the large cities has
contained account after account of the re-
markable cases of 'health restored by
Paine's celery compound"
Some OF the most famous men and women
in the country have very recently author
lied the publication of their unsolicited
testimonials. They or their physicians
have frankly told how, when all else had
failed, Paine's celery compound has made
them well.

INDIAN APPROPRIATIONS.
Mr.. Richardson Arises to Combat a Sem
sdtionGL Newspaper Story.

WASHINGTON, JAM 1.-THE day in the House
was again devoted to the Indian appropriation
bill and fair progress was made A number of
amendments were adopted, the most important
being to pay to the Cherokee nation ST $780,
600. An amendment by Picker to discontinue
the services OF army officers as Indian agents
was ruled out of order.
Richardson OF Tennessee, chairman of the
Committee on Printing, as a matter of priv
lege, had read paragraph printed in local
paper relating to the incorporation in the
printing bill passed at the last session OF clause
extending the ranking privilege to members
of Congress for correspondence with officials
and private individuals on official or depart
ment business. The paragraph indicated that
the clause had been incorporated in the bill
surreptitiously. Richardson read from the
Record showing that the clause had been de-
bated and adopted by vote of AZ to 40.
The House then went into committee of the
whole for further consideration of the Indian
appropriation bill.
General debate was closed and the bill was
considered under the five-minute rule for
amendment. Caruth Cd of Kentucky took oe-
casion to supplement his remarks of some DAYS
ago against the national postage movement
looking to the reduction of letter postage. He
retracted what he had said previously concern
ing Lyman J. Gage of Chicago, who, along
their connection with the movement last Oc-
tober.
Flynn (R.) of Oklahoma offered an amend
ment to increase the appropriation for the sub
sistence and civilization of the Arapahoe and
Cherokee Indians from $4,000 to 100000
Rejected.
On motion of Bowers of California the para
graph providing 1925 900 for the support of
the FIVE tribes in New Mexico and Arizona was
amended so as to strike out the lines specific
ally mentioning the Apaches, in order to place
the tribes all on an equal footing.
Cobb of Missouri offered an amendment to
pay the first installment due March a. 1895, to
the Cherokee nation under the act of March 8,
1898, for the purchase of the Cherokee outlet,
amounting to $1,66OO00, provided that said
sum should be held subject to the payment of
the Delaware and Shawnee Indians and the
Cherokee freedmen as provided by section 10
of said act. Adopted.
An amendment appropriating $4,000 to de-
fray the expenses of the Puyallup Indian COM
mission was carried and the House adjourned.

RAILROADS At WAR.

The Burlington and the Rock Island
Hostile to the Union Pacific.
CHICAGO, Jan. H.-No progress was made
by the Western lines to-day toward the
formation of a passenger agreement. The
Union Pacific has not accepted the propo-
sition of the other lines to keep the long
haul via Ogden and leave the Denver bust
ness open to division, and there is small
chance that it will accept it. 1t absolutely
refuses to make any concessions unless the
boycott against it is removed.
The Rock Island and the Burlington
roads have prepared notice which will be
served upon the Union Pacific as soon as
it is definitely understood that no reorgan-
ization of passenger business can be effect
ed. The notice will be to the effect that
the Rock Island and the Burlington will
receive business originating on the Union
Pacific west of Cheyenne and destined to
points in Iowa reached only by the Rock
Island and the Burlington as though it
originated in Cheyenne-that is, they will
not allow the Union Pacific for the haul it
makes west of Cheyenne, nor any proper
ton of the haul they make in Iowa. This
is simply forcing the Union Pacific to do
for them what they are now doing for it.

The Chicago Herald has just devoted a
page or more to interviews with prominent
men and women in that city who have
been made well the past year by Paine
celery compound.
There are many in San Francisco whom
it has cured of serious illness.
Paine's celery compound is the one spe-
cific for those nervous disorders, neuralgia
and rheumatism, for heart trouble, lassi-
tude, sleeplessness, from which women in
this climate too generally suffer.
1t cures not only speedily but perma-
nently. 1t supplies the nerves with food;
it makes new blood; it removes the cause
of disease. Mrs. D. F. Taylor of Wichita,
Kan, whose portrait is given above, writes
OF her experience:
'Some three months ago." she says, "I
saw Paine's celery compound recommended
for the cure of sick headache. | purchased
a few bottles, and | think it my duty to give
my testimonial, recommending it to any one
suffering from that distressing complaint
Il was sick for a number of years, but
three bottles of Paine's celery compound
have cured me entirely"
Testimonials might be published by hun
dreds. They all go to show that for any of
those complaints that arise from an inn
paired nervous system OF impure blood
Palne's celery compound should invariably
be taken-for 1t makes people well

TO Save THE FUR SEALS.
There Is Only One Way in Which 1t
Can Be Done.
England Must De Brought to Consent to
the Cessation Of Pelagic Seal
Ing for Time.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE Secretary of
the Treasury has about completed his
regulations for the government of vessels
employed in fur-sealing fishing during the
coming season. These regulations, it is
said, will not materially differ from those
in operation during the last season. Sir
Julian Pauncefote, the British Embassa-
dor, had conference with Mr.. Carlisle to-
day, and it is thought that in essential
particulars the regulations to be issued by
the British Government will not materl-
ally differ from our own.
Another matter, however, OF far greater
Importance to the sealing industry is now
under consideration. Assistant Secretary
Hamlin last summer visited the Pribyloff
Islands and investigated the whole sealing
question, and has now about completed
his report to the Secretary on the subject.
The report has not been made public, but
it will show that the greatest menace to
the life of the seals is pelagic sealing and
not the number permitted to be taken on
the islands. 1t will also show that the
action OF the Paris tribunal has been
proven to have fallen short of pre-
venting the wanton slaughter of seal
life, which may soon result in the
total destruction of the herds since seals
may be freely killed sixty miles from
shore. As these are mostly females, the
increase of the herds is prevented. An
other provision of the Paris award which
is said to have been abortive is that no
firearms shall be used within the sixty
mile zone. The most successful natives, it
is stated, never use firearms, the spear or
harpoon being far more effective, and is in
general use.
In view of these facts it is believed steps
are about to be taken to secure England 8
consent to a modification of the Paris
award, having for its object the total sus-
pension for a specified number of years of
pelagic sealing within the Boring Sea. No
measure less heroic than this, it is stated,
can prevent the ultimate extinction of seal
life in these northern waters.
Secretary Gresham called upon Chair
man Sayres of the House Appropriation
Committee to-day to urge that provision
be made to carry out his recommendations
for payments aggregating $425,oO0 on &C
count of claims incurred under the Boring
Sea agreement. Sayres told him it would
be considered in connection with the gen.
eral deficiency bill.

for the money it has invested in the COM
pany are tonight pointing to the fact that
the first mortgage merely covers the main
line of the company, that experience in
dicates that the feeders of the line alone
have paid expenses, and that without the
branches the main line is in no wise
desirable property.
For some weeks there have been whisper
ings that foreclosure proceedings would be
Instituted, though at the headquarters this
idea had been secuted. To-day 1t was
learned that tomorrow Senator Thurston
would visit st. Louis on an important mat
ter. At later hour he admitted that he
would go there and that he would meet
the Eastern attorneys, who would file the
petition in foreclosure. Tonight he stated
that his visit to the Southern metropolis
was for the purpose of looking after the in
terests of the Union Pacific receivers, for
whom he is the attorney. He said that he
had no knowledge of the contents of the
petition which would be filed, as it had
been prepared in New York or Boston.
On October Ii, 1898, Judge Dudley, sit
ting in thesUnited States Court in this
city, appointed S. H. III. Clark, Oliver w.
Mink and E. Ellery Anderson receivers, on
the application of the executors of the
estates of Frederick L. Ames and Sidney
Dillon, the largest bondholders of the
company's bonds, and Edwin F. Atkins of
Boston. The interests that applied for the
appointment of the receivers were friendly
to the existing management and their
action was taken for the avowed purpose
of protecting the property. According to
an official statement issued at that time,
''the object was to keep intact in one sys-
tenn and to preserve the road at its greatest
value and anticipate possible suits growing
out of the failure to meet obligations be-
cause of the dull times"
The present proceedings are expected to
bring the long-drawn-out story to some
sort of definite settlement.

SHERMANS SCHEME OF FINANCE
Hotc He Would Help Secretary Carlisle
C0per the DeJiciencY.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Another interesting
chapter to the financial question was given TO
the Senate to-day, when Sherman presented an
emergency currency bill to meet the treasury
deficiencies, and Pugh offered measure on
the same lines, supplementing it with a vigor-
Gus speech on the impotency and inaction of
the Senate in the face OF a grave emergency
This was but the prelude to a day spent with
appropriation bills. The pension bill appro-
priating Sal ,OOO,0 900 was passed with two
important amendments, one making Sc the
lowest rate for pension disability and another
repeating the present law cutting off the PEN
sions of non-residents. 1t was stated during
the debate that the $6 amendment would in
crease pension expenditures not exceeding
81 ,000,0 900. The bill served as text for severe
criticism against the administration of the
Pension Office. The army appropriation bill
was considered, but not completed owing to
spirited opposition to the abandonment OF
army posts in the far Northwest.
Pugh of Alabama secured recognition soon
after the Senate met to present what he re-
garded as solution of the present lack of
Government revenue The Senator varied the
usual custom Of introducing bill by reading
the full text of his measure with great DELHI
Grafton and then commenting on it. The bill
provides for the immediate issue of 800 ,OO0,-
900 in treasury notes to meet deficiencies
constantly reissued. 1t further directs the
coinage of the seigniorage and deposits of sill
yer bullion from American mines.
Hill asked if the Senator wished the imme-
date passage of this bill.
''That question: said Pugh, sis in line with
the New York Senator's treatment of all great
public questions, and decline to answer it."
Pugh proceeded to urge the gravity of the
present situation. 1t was such that he was
ready to surrender his long convictions in or
der to secure remedy ''Thus far" he said
"Senators have stood here and torn down. It
is easy to tear down. but it is hard to build up.
We have torn down until we have nearly torn
down the country" Pugh begged the Finance
Committee, in which he had great confidence,
to do something at once. He did not believe
the Senators were Muscovite brakes, bowling
and sleeping stupidity.
Allen (Pop) of Nebraska interrupted him to
ask as to the attitude OF the administration on
this bill.
"Cleveland has sent message to Congress
calling attention to present conditions re-
sponded Pugh with great earnestness. s4The
President and his Secretary of the Treasury
have offered g scheme of currency revision de-
signed to meet present evils. Ii this was not
accepted let both houses propose something
