The most beautiful girls in Louis
vile, if we are to judge by the pic
lures in the Times, are the new women
who earn5their own living in the big
stores. The Times is pu blishing a
series of portraits and many OF the
subjects, if they are correctly repre-
sented, would pass for typical Ken
lucky beauties. They seem to be
much more fortunate in this respect
than there aristocratic sisters, whose
aim is to be more ornamental than
useful.

The best reading matter the Louis
vile Times has contained for twelve
months was letter the first of the
week from the pen of Hon. Jno. D.
Carroll, formerly Chairman of the
State Central Committee and a
brother of Tony Carroll, who is one
of the five boilers in the Legislature,
who are preventing the election of the
Democratic nominee for Senator. Mr..
Carroll is still true and loyal Dem
ocrat, who has not forsaken the fun
damental party principle of bimetal-
lism, and his views are set forth in a
line of argument that cannot be con-
troverted. There may yet be some
hope for the Times, since it has open
ed its columns to the truthful side of
the money question.

CUBAN REoooNITIoN.

The House resolution recognizing
Cuban belligerency was somewhat
different from the Senate resolution
and an agreement will have to be ar
rived at before the resolution becomes
effective.
The recognition of this country of
the beligerent rights of the Cuban
patriots means simply that the United
States takes official notice of the
fact that war exists on the island of
Cuba. The minute this recognition
is made public our relations to the
two contending parties are changed
entirely. According to the usual Gus
tom, the President would issue a
proclamation declaring that the war
existed in the island of Cuba and
proclaiming that the United States
would be strictly neutral as between
the two parties. This would mean
that this country would treat the
Spaniards aud the Cubans exactly
the same. No preference would be
shown to either party. Every right
which was given to Spain would be
given to the insurgents. 1t is a we'll
settled principle of international law
that when belligerent rights are &C.
CORDED he neutrarSoyernment is not
stopped in its trade with either party
except so far as it must maintain
strict Neutrality between the two
Our merchants would have perfect
right to sell in open market rifles,
cannon, ammunition or any other
war materials to the Cubans. Spain
could not complain of this sale and
could not appeal to the Federal au-
thorities to prevent the shipments of
the cargo.
While this country would assume
to be strictly neutral between the two
parties, it would reserve the right to
trade with either belligerent; it would
permit here in the United States abso.
lutely free discussion as to the War
between Spain and Cuba; it would al
low our citizens to furnish funds or
supplies to either Spaniards or Gu
bans, as they see fit; it would allow
American citizens 10 leave this coun-
try openly for the purpose of enlisting
in the Cuban army, provided they did
not do so in organized bodies and
were not hired in this country; it
would throw open our ports as asy-
lums to the ships of both Spaniards
and Cubans alike.
This would of course give a tie.
mendous advantage over the pres
ent state of affairs. Other nations
would quickly follow suit and Spain
would be forced to fight according to
the rules of civilized warfare. 1t is
said that the President is not friend
ly to Cuba and he may delay recog-
milton by refusing to issue the procla-
nation.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inhamed con-
dition of the mucous surface.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir

Bassett L. Cos Mermaid,

The greatest curiosity that we have
ever come across in our strolls around
for ''write ups" and items of interest,
is the Mermaid, now on exhibition at
Bassett g. Co.'S store, and perhaps the
greatest attraction of this nature that
has ever been in our city, if the
crowd of lockers around the large
window is any criterion to go by.
Every one wants to see the curiosity
before the firm sends it away.
The object is dried up and rresen, 8
a mummified appearance. 1t is four
feet long and would seem to be sew
eral years old.
Not less than a thousand people
have viewed it within the last few
days and all pronounce it as being
one of the greatest curiosities science
has ever shown in our midst. The
following appears on placard in the
window:
MERMAID.
Homer's Song, beauteous reality.
The Mermaid was half woman and
half fish. This wonder of wonders
was cast upon:the shores of Sicily,
found by fishermen, who carried it to
the village of Cassia. This treasure
from the bosom of Old Neptune do
mains, was esteemed as almost price
less in value, by Art Connoiseurs,
and was purchased by one, and taken
to London, where it died and from
there in its present state, it found its
way to America.
The display is attracting universal
attention and wonder, and no one in
the city should fail to see it; you'll
never see another like it. Mr.. Ras-
sett will keep it on exhibition several
days.

Obituary..

Laura j. Roads, daughter of E. A.
Mosier, was born in Centerfeld, Septem.
Der 8, 1850. and was married to Enos
Roads September 8, 1880. She was con-
verted when about 16 years of age, and
united with the NJ. E Church, of which
she was worthy member till about 9
years ago. She brought her letter, and
with her companion, found a welcome
home with the Friends. One of the
greatest pleasures of her life was an
attendance on the services of the sane.
tuary, and she often expressed a regret
that she could not attend oftener. But
the duties of the loving wife and faith.
ful mother, together with her own
feeble health, many times rendered it
impossible. For, after years of almost
hopeless battling against the gradual
encroachments of the fell disease that
for the last few months, has prostrated
her and rendered her last weeks days of
constant suffering.
And today as we look for the last time
on her lifeless form, may her dying ad.
monition to her husband, her children
and her kindred, to live to the glory
and honor OF God and at last to meet
her in heaven, be felt and emulated by
all. At twenty minutes past four, Sab.
bath morning, May 10, the summons
came. 1t found her not only ready, but
waiting, and, at the age of 35 years,
months and day, she passed peacefully
away, leaving four children, husband
and friends numbered only by the limit
of her acquaintance.

A Trial Of Strength.

Here is a good experiment for boys
who would like to beat four men in a
trial of strength. Procure two brooms
and long rope. Ask two men to
hold each broom tightly by the handle,
keeping them PARALLEL to one another
and about yard distant. Tie firmly to
one handle the end of rope or a strong
cord, then pass the cord several times
around both handles-say five times
taking care not to cross the rows. Now
holding in both hands the other ex.
tremity of the cord, you may inform the
men holding the brooms that you are
going to force the brooms to come to-
gether, no matter how hard the men
may try to keep them apart. To do this,
You need only draw the cord, the effort
you will thus make being multiplied by
the number of turns to the rope, as in
the case of pulley, helping you to OBJ.
tain the desired Jesuit. But just as in
the case Of pulley, what is gained in
strength is lost in momentum. You
