A healthy blood supply is regulated by
the nerves, and when these vital tissues
become fatigued and badly nourished,
the bad effect is seen in falling diges-
ton, distressing, ringing sounds in the
ears, dizzy spells, depression, neuralgia
and lassitude. Spring days afford every
weaknesses and persistent disorders.
Physicians from every school have
been from the start urged TO inquire
into the formula of Paine's celery COM
pound, that they might satisfy them
selves of its wonderful power Of max
ing the sick well. Prof. Edward Z.
Philips, NJ. D., LII D., as soon as he
presented Paine's celery compound to
his fellow physicians, was always anx-
ious to have the invigorator tried in
cases that had resisted the usual
methods of treatment, that he might
prove the truth of every claim made
for his newly discovered formula for
Paine's celery compound. The great
remedy always gave relief, and in SO
cases out of 100 made people well.
Paine's celery compound cannot be
judged by the standard of any ordinary
medicine, sarsaparilla or nerve tonic
1t is a great modern, scient ific discov-
cry, singularly unlike any remedial
agent that has ever aimed TO effect a
similar purpose TO make people we'll.
Paine's celery compound is the one
real spring remedy known today tina.

~ compound, and only Paine's celery
compound if you wish TO be well.

Strange Voting Scheme which Boston has
Originated Now.
Boston, Mass, May AT the month
~ dinner of the Boston Congregational
club tonight, one Of the guests was Mr..
Samuel B. Capen, the president Of the
Municipal league Of Boston, and he
spoke briefly upon the plan Of proper
ticnal representation which the League
has pending before the Massachusetts,
legislature. This was followed by a
practical test Of the system by means
of a ballot distributed among the men,
bers of the club. 1t was in double
columns, the first containing printed
directions, and the second the ballot.
The section OF the Municipal League
bill which bore on this part of the pro-
ceedings was Is follows:
Each voter shall have as many votes
as there are persons to be elected, which
he may distribute as he chooses among
the candidates, giving not more than
one vote 10 any one candidate, votes
thus specifically given TO be known as
individual votes" and each such vote
shall count individually for the candl-
date receiving the same and for the
ticket 10 which the candidate belongs.
In case a voter does not use the total
number of votes to which he is entitled
by specifying the number of candidates.
the remainder Of his votes. 10 be known
as ticket votes" shall be counted for
any ticket as a whole. provided that he
designated such ticket by title; other
wise only the individual votes shall be
counted. His entire ticket will be vot-

Mr.. Capen explained the system in
| brief thus: Some voters may want 10
vote for particular candidates who are
not on the ticket whose general princi-
| pies they approve. or they may want
, 70 vote for nine candidates separa tely.
In the latter case they take their
! nine separate marks against the names
Of their candidates. But suppose they
want 10 vote for three men who are
not on their party ticket, they mark
those three names and then put mark
against the name Of their party ticket.
and that party vote is given a weight
in counting sufficient 10 make total Of
nine. In the soppose case the party
vote would count six. a straight par
~ vote with no other candidate select
ed, would count nine.
The actual result OF the ballotting
was as follows: The number of men
who voted was 249 The votes counted
for the party tickets were as follows:
Republican. &C.,; Democrats. 81; indie
pendent, 222. Besides these. the indi-
vidual votes on the Republican ticket
amounted 10 727. which were divided as
follows: Harrison, 124: Reed, III; Nor
ton, IS; Mckinley, &c; Allison, 46; VOL
colt, 12l; Mccall, So; Draper, Al: Ding
ley. 75. The Individual votes on the
Democratic ticket numbered 165: divided
as follows: Russell. %; Olney, 40; Will
Jams. L; Whitney. "a: Morrison. s:
Smith, l; Carlisle, I: Buchanan I: Pierce
s. The individual votes on the Independ-
ent ticket numbered 297. divided a fol-
lows: Grant. 1e6; Sherman. 6S: Sheri-
dan, %; Hooker. 10: Mcclellan, II;
Chase, Il; Seward, IS; Farragut. &c:

The total Of 6s7 Republican party vote
plus 727 individual votes made J. s94 Re-
publican votes. The total of 81 Demo-
cratic party votes plus 165 individual
votes made 2l6 Democratic votes. The
total Of 90 Independent votes for the
whole ticket plus 297 individual votes
made total of 1924 Independent votes.
The total OF 1884. 216. and 5l9 is :. 129.
which was the total number Of votes.
This total. divided by nine. the number

VOTE AL PRIMARIES
WAY OKLAHOMA DEMOCRATS WILL
GET OUT OF A BAD HOLE

As They are CIeveland's AppoiDtees and
Liable to be Suspected of Being Manip-
mated From Washingt ton on the Silver
Question, They Ask the Voters to Name
Their Preference for Silver Gold at
the Regular Prinaries-Belief of the
Republicans That the Delegation Will
Have TO Bolt Its Instructions.
Guthrie, o. T, May 1.-The admins
tration crowd of Democrats in Oklaho-
ma are in a pretty kettle OF fish and
they are trying to worm themselves our.
Democratic politics in the territory
has now begun. The first convention,
for the selection Of delegates TO the nd-
tional convention at Chicago viii be
held in Oklahoma City on May 26. The
convention to nominate delegates TO
Congress against Flynn has not been
arranged for, but it is understood that
il will be held in August. This delay
is with the hope of making some kind
OF deal with the Populists.
But the financial question is what ia
bothering the Democratic bosses of the
territory. They have started out in a
perfectly fair way with the Democratic
voters of the territory. The central
Commute has recommended that at the
primaries the question of for or against
the coinage of silver al the ratio Of Is
to / be voted upon.
This will give a vent TO the free sill
yer Democrats in the territory and keep
them off the backs of the federal Off
Gals. What the delegates will do when
they get to Chicago is an entirely diff
ferent question. Not one of the fedeT-
al officials in the territory, and there
are several of them who will so as dele
gates TO Chicago, would dare 20 vote
against PresidentCleveland if he should
be a candidate. and as several of Hoke
Smiths friends will be on the delega-
ton, some of them will never vote for
the free coinage of silver.
1t is said here by the Republicans that
the administration Democrats, know
ing that the party as whole in Okla
homa is for silver will give them all
chance to state their preference on the
financial question, but will forget the
instructions when they get 10 Chicago
purposely. The Republicans say this
thing is bound to take place and Will
make Republican votes and also keep
a fusion deal with the PopuIsts down.
The basis OF representation for the
Oklahoma City convention was fixed at
one delegate to each fifty Of fraction
Of % votes or over cast for Wisely, add
ing six to Pottawatomie for Shawnee
and McLoud in the Kickapoo country.
Grees county gets vote and the Usage
nation two votes. The committee re-
commended that county conventions be
held on May 10, and that delegates to
county conventions be elected at pri.
nlaries.
Following is the official representa-
ton Of each county at the convention:

Masked Men Enter Bank In
San Francisco and Take Gold.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1S. - Three
masked men entered the Market street
bank, small institution in the Spreckels
building, shortly after 10 a. IN. today,
and ordered Cashier Hopkins and Book
keeper Hayhurst to throw up their
hands.
Hopkins, who was at the counter, re-
fused and one robber fired bullet, pass
ing his head, but striking neither official.
The three robbers then climbed through
the hole in the wire screen at the cash
ier's window and seized the two bank
officiaIs and hustled them into the
vault. A piece of carpet caught in the
door of the vault and the robbers did not
take time to fasten the vault door. Hastily
dumping pile of gold on the cashiers
counter into a sack they escaped.
Although Market street was crowded
with passing people the robbers made
good their escape. 1t is supposed they
got only $500.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 18-Owing to an in

there was a we'll founded apprehension

crowd did assemble. but heavy relay
of police was found there aud no con-
centration was permitted.
Little by little news got abroad that no
occasion for any sort of demoustr alton
could arise for the simple reason that the
prisoners had been quietly removed to
the city hall two hours before the time
when it was supposed they would leave
the jail. Notwithstanding this fact, cur
ious people kept coming to that vicinity,
only to find no cause for excitement.
The third appearance of jackson and
Walling in the police court today served
TO crowd the corridors leading to the
court room with jostlng curious as
sembly of men and women. Ample
guards were placed, however, so that no
one got into the court room who did not
have right to be there. When the
cases were called the prisoners appeared
promptly from the cell room below with
no unusual signs showing any change
in their bearing.
They were required to remain not
more than a half minute, for counsel had
agreed to continue the hearing until
February 27. AS soon as the order was
announced by the judge, the prisoners
were safely returned to the JAIL the

REPUBLICANS LIKE IT.

Thirty of Them in Butler County Endorse
Senator TiIIman's Speech.
From the State Journals Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Feb 1S.-Cong gresham
Curtis has received from Butler county
two memorials expressing thanks for the
speech of Senator Gillman in the senate
which bruised so many exposed heads
and shattered so completely convention
ality and senatorial courtesy. The sign
ers wish Mr. Curtis TO convey their
thanks to Senator Tillman 'in the most
public manner" The signers are of all
political parties to the number of So, and
are distri buted as follows: Populists 90,
Republicans 80, Democrats and Pro-
hibitionists one.
The petitioners say: "Convey to Sena-
tor Tillman our heartfelt thanks for the
heroic manner in which he has attacked
political corruption and duplicIty in high
places and we congratulate the AmerI-
can people that at last there has been
found at one end of the capitol a man
possessing Jacksonian heroism and that
we bid him godspeed. Now that he has
opened on the enemy in front with his
battery we desire him to charge them on
either flank with sword and bayOnet un-
til complete route shall result"
The signatures indicated that most of
the signers were farmers or men used to
manual labor and unaccUstOmed to writ
ing. However, one of the signers was a
minister and pastor of church.
