CARLlSLE'S AMBITION.
He Hopes to He Senator Blaclburn's suo.
oossof From Kentucky.

Hs Hopes to He Senator Blackburn's suo-
oessor From Kentucky.
According to prominent Kentuokian
who is close to Secretary Carlisle. that
gentleman will be candidate for the
senate to succeed Senator Blackburn,
whose term expires March 4, 1897, the
day when Mr.. Carlisle ceases to be sec
rotary of thetreasury. Mr.. Carlisle will
not be candidate in the ordinary sense
of the term, although he will probably
60 into the state and make some speech
es, but as dark horse he will be pre-
pared to take advantage of anything
that may turn up. Some of his friends
understand what his hopes are in the
matter and will do everything possible
to bring about his election. 1t is we'll
known that Mr. Carlisle has always re-
gretted leaving the senate and will be
only too glad to return to that body.
Senator Blackburn, who hopes to be his
own successor, realizes that he has the
fight Of his life upon his hands and is
making every preparation for the most
vigorous campaign he ever waged. He
will travel over every part of the state
and speak wherever he can find an
audience. and in those places remote
from railroads he will visit his constit-
uents on horseback, stopping at farm.
houses overnight, and entertain farmers
wives and admire the children. Black
burn is magnetic sort of chap, witty
and never at loss for clever reply or
a graceful compliment, besides which
he has fondness for the three things for
which Kentucky is famous-pretty
women, fast horse and good bourbon
whisky. Times Herald.

Secretary Gresham has never had any
experience in journalism, but the off,
cials Of the state department. say he
would make good editor. Atany rate,
he is an adept in the use of big blue
pencil. One Of the secretary's assistants
prides himself on his great ability as a
writer of dispatches He has been turn
ing out these missives for various secre-
taries Of state for 10 or 90 years and has
developed remarkable facility in the
use of those high sounding phrases and
rolling adjectives Of which the experts
in diplomacy are so fond. 1t being nec-
essary few days ago to prepare letter
to one of our foreign ministers, technic.
oally called a dispatch in the state de-
partment, although it is sent out by
mail, this official was assigned to the
task. He labored at it three days, TAX
ing the job home with him and sitting
up nights with it. He erased and in
terlined, copied and erased and copied
again until he felt quite sure he had
attained absolute perfection. He was so
proud of the result that he showed it all
around the department as sample of
the high art Of dispatch writing. The
document covered "a of the broad blue
pages which have been used from time
immemorial for the correspondence of
the state department. 1t was with a
proud. confident air that the assistant
carried his "a pages to Secretary Gresh-
am.
II think you will be pleased with
this" said the assistant modestly. II

tary. II will take it up in an hour or
two and look it over" The secretary
did so, and when the great dispatch
was sent back to it's author 22H of its
pages were all covered with the marks
Of Secretary Gresham's big blue pencil.
But the artist in dispatch writing had
been too long in the field Of diplomacy
to be squelched or cast down by sim

GENERAL HARRISON.

He Has No Idea OF Running For the Pres

Loais T. Kitchener, ex-attorney gen.
eral Of Indiana and General Harrison e
friend, was in Philadelphia recently
and said to reporter that the ex-presi-
dent has not any idea whatever Of be-
coming candidate in 1896. It is not
even considered by him, and he will not
be candidate in any sense. ''The fact
u.s." he says, 1.-The ex-president has
never sought any Office. and it has been
chiefly owing to political circumstances
that he has consented to run for office
He is not the kind Of a man to lay pipes
for nomination, and he is always
frank and outspoken. If any one imag-
ines the ex president is giving thought
to the presidency in 1896, he is eGe-
giously mistaken. know General Harris
son has no idea of running for the pres
idency again unless it becomes mat

A Woman Commissioner

Miss Emerson Of San Francisco was
appointed commissioner of the United
States court of land claims a few days
ago. The position is to some extent ju-
dicial Commissioner Emerson will
take testimony as an examining officer
and will decide whether the statements
made before her are relevant, competent
and material or the opposite Miss EN-.
erson's appointment came about in this
way: When Attorney Thomas Ball of
Virginia was in California last sum-
mer, Miss Emerson proved herself a
very valuable assistant to him in his in

ton act. Together they made tour of
inquiry from Eureka to Los Angeles,
and when Mr.. Ball returned to Wash
ington he carried with him high opin-
ion of Miss Emerson's abilities

learn that a gentleman who has for some

Hand in Hand.

Concentrated thought, continued In, robs
the stomach Of necessary blood, and this Is
also true of hard physical labor.
When five horsepower engine is made
to do ten horsepower work something ia
going to break. Very often the hard
worked man coming from the field or the
Office will "bolt " his food in a few min
utes which will take hours to digest. Then
too, many foods are about as useful in the
stomach as keg of nails would be in a
fire under boiler. The ill-used stomach
refuses 10 do its work without the proper
stimulus which it gets from the blood and
nerves. The nerves are weak and ready
to break because they do not get the
nourishment they require from the blood,
finally the ill-used brain is morbidly wide
awake when the overworked man at
tenpts to find rest in bed.
The application Of common sense in the
treatment of the stomach and the whole
system brings to the busy man the full en-
jovment of life and healthy digestion when
he takes DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to
relieve a bilious stomach or after too
hearty meal, and DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery to purify, enrich and
vitalize the blood .rne pellets are tiny
sugar coated pills made of highly concen-
trated vegetable ingredients which relieve
the stomach of all offending matters easily
and thoroughly. They need only be taken
for a short ,ime TO cure the biliousness,
constipation and slothfulness, or torpor, of
the liver; then the Medical Discovery"
should be taken in teaspoonful doses to in.
crease the blood and enrich it. 1t has Q
peculiar effect upon the lining membranes
Of the stomach and bowels, toning up and
strengthening them for all time. The
