Now. the suggestion OF this question Is
quite unexpected. The last difficulty we

I'm very loud and emphatic tones, we
have failed to note the incident when
Il occurred.
But this picture makes another sugges-
ton which is much more important and
that Is that Senator Hill is going again to

sonal claims OF his own. Mr.. Hills ex'
perIence ought to have taught him by
this time. that the Democracy OF the
United States will never accept him as
its candidate FOR the presidency. tie

and true appreciation Of its blessed prln'

but when VIC come 10 see him put his

most malignant form of machine politics
and ring rule, with Hill himself as the
chief machinist. Il is proverbiai that

when the people of the United states
hear Senator Hill preach his Democratic
sermons. but see him act the part OF

In 1ss2 the United Press was formed. It's

In 1892 the New York Associated Press
was consolidated with the United Press,

ploded some very popular ideas about
appendicitis.
He said that he had never, in all the
operations he had performed for this
trouble, seen single grape or tomato
seed or cherry stone, and he was very
much pleased to be able to make this
statement so as to set at rest the fears
existing among the laity as to the dan
gers of these fruits. He also said he was
sure the disease could be cured without
the use OF the knife. DR.. Mcclure has
treated more cases of appendicitis than

been eminentIy successful with his pa

CENTRE MoRICHEs. L. 1, Sept g.
This village is being held up by
swarm of hornets that have nest in
the branches of a tree on one of the
main streets. They hold possession of
the thoroughfare for more than block,
and Justice George T. Osbarne has been
asked to take steps to have them taken
into custody. He is anxious to have the
pests removed, but so far has been IN
able to fud anyone brave enough to I'M
dertake the job.
In the meantime the pests go hum
ming about aud singing at their own
sweet will. The other day they attacked
Miss Louise Benjamin and her cousin,
who ventured within the block. The
two women were badly stnng. Other
unwary pedestrians have met with SINH
lar receptions. Unless the pests are
soon removed, the villagers say they will
appeal to the governor to call ouE the
militia.
