The success Of Hoods Sarsaparnla
in conquering scrofula in whatever
way it may manifest Itself is vOuched
for by thousands who were sever ely
afflicted by this prevalent disease, but
who now rejoice over a permanent
cure by Hoods Sarsaparilla. Scrofula
may appear as a humOr, or it may
attack the glands Of the neck, or
break out in dreadful running sores on
the body or limbs. Attacking the
mucous membrane, it may develop
into catsrrh or lodging in the lungs
lead to consumption. Come as ii
may, faithful course Of treatment
with Hoods Sarsaparilla will overcome
it, for working upon the foundation
Of all diseases, impure blood, the
system is clarified and vitalized. and

John Haughey At COrbin.

COrbin, Sept. 3d.. Bulls represent
tatives were in town last right, but the
attraction seemed to be Mark Hanna's
minstrel troupe, which sang few
select songs before night to advertise
for a crowd, there were a great many
women and children from all parties,
and about thirty voters half or more
of whom were Populists.
The speaker of the evening was
John Haughey of Wellington. A
part Of Mr.. Haughey's speech was
Instructive, but the greater part was
misleading. In his talk on silver he
sail that under the restricted coinage
of silver the government was behind
it with all her gold, (which she Dor
rows from Europe we suppose, or she
would have but little otherwise all
Sler property, all the wealth of the
nation, and her seventy millions of
people. We thought at the time that
Mr.. Haughey could make a good
greenback speech if it wasn't that he
prefers to work for corporations
instead Of for the people. But when
he spoke Of the free coinage of silver
he seemed to try to impress people
with the idea that the government
would coin silver and would never
recognize it thereafter. The greater
portion of his talk on silver was very
thin and his talk on railroad legisla-
ton was mostly buncemh He
thought he could do more than all the
Republicans that had been in the
Legislative halls heretofore, 10 the
way of maximum freight rate bill of
which nothing had ever been done to
amount to anything. The senate last
session passed a maximum freight
rate bill, but it was so foolish that no
one else would have anything to do
with it. We suppose he thinks the
people here never read anything but
Republican papers, and did not know
that during the last few years the
POpulists 10 the house or senate had
passed some three or four maximum
freight-rate bills, which were killed
ia the opposite house by Republicans
We understand that few years ago
while canyaSsing the county for Coun-
ty attorney he said that the county
was largely Republican and he did
not ask any one else to vote for him,
still he was beaten. Now he sings a
different tune; he begs voters of all
parties to vote for him, says he thinks
he can do little more for the dear
people than anyone else in the county.
Hanna must have run out Of money
since at the close of the speaking
they tried to raise collection for
Marks minstrel troupe, thinking per-
haps the people might donate a frac.
tiOn toward their own obstruction.
After the crowd had left the build.
fing, three rOusing cheers for Bryan
we're given which would have made
one think there had been a free silver
meeting, instead Of Republican.

Surprise of an English Visitor Who
Thought He Was Rescuing n Man.
Frank Hyatt, who has long enjoyed
an income Of $4,000, derived principally
from his vocation as booking agent"
for London Thespians, two weeks ago
landed in the American metropolis for
the purpose, as he said, of seeing what
so many men and beasts as he had been
shipping to him. New York and it's
ceaseless rush amazed him. Mr..
Baileys winter quarters at Bridgeport
were past his belief, the swiftly moving
Broadway cars, "a lot Of trans pulled
by a string" surprised him, says the
New York World.
His idle moments Eat 'ome" are spent
upon the race-courses OF England and
there, in times past, he has met many
Of his friends. Recently, at an uptown
Broadway hotel, as he glanced out into
the street his kindly blue eyes seemed
to start from their sockets. Rushing
into Broadway he shouted:
Hold on here! Don't start that car!
Here, somebody, call an ambulance"
Then Mr.. Hyatt plunged almost head
foremost under the car and began tug
ging away at mans legs that were
lying across the rails beneath the center
of the car. AS he did so the legs be-
gan to kick vigorously. The rescuer
felt himself pulled away violently, saw
the brawny fist of the conductor shak-
ing close to his nose and he heard the
angry voice of the conductor saying:
What do you mean, sir, by trying to
keep that man from fixing the car? Do
you think we want to block Broadway
all day."
Mr.. Hyatt turned toward the hotel
and was greeted by laughter from the
crowd that his cries had attracted.

There Is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining OF the Eus-

famed you have q rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when ii is en-
tirely closed Deafness Is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to Its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for

CHAPTER IX.-CoSTINuED,.


Perhaps we shall tide over tonight
after all-who knows?" said Lomaque
ringing his hand bell for lights. They
were brought in, and with them omi-
nously returned the police agent Ma
gloire with a small sealed packet. II
contained an arrest order and q tiny
three-cornered note. looking more like
love letter OF lady's invitation to o
party than anything else. Lomaque
opened the note eagerly and read these
lines, neatly written, and signed with
Robespierre's initials-M. R.--formed
elegantly in cipher:
Arrest Trudaine and his sister to-
night. On second thoughts l am not
sure, IL Danville comes back In time to
be present, that it may not be all the
better. He is unprepared for his wires
arrest. Watch him closely when II
takes place, and report privately to me.
am afraid he is a vicious man; and OF
all things l abhor Vice."
"Any more work for me to-night?''
asked Magloire, with yawn.
"Only an arrest" replied Lomaque.
Collect our men, and when you're
ready, get coach at the door,"
"We were just going to supper,
grumbled Magloire to himself, as he
went out. THE devil seize the Aristo-
Gratis! They're all In such a hurry to
get to the guillotine that they won't
even give a man time to eat his VIC
tuals in peace"
There's no choice now" muttered
Lomaque, angrily thrusting the arrest
order and the three-cornered note into
his pocket. His father was the saw
ing of me; he himself welcomed me like
IN equal; his sister treated me like a
gentleman, as the phrase went in those
days, and now"
He stopped and wiped his forehead;
then unlocked his desk, produced bot
tie Of brandy, and poured himself out
a glass of liquor, which he drank by
sips, slowly.
Il wonder whether other men get
softer hearted as they grow older?" he
said. 81 seem to do so, at any rate.
Courage! courage! what must be, must.
II l risked my head to do it, couldn't
stop this arrest Not man in the Of
fee but would be ready to execute it, If
! wacn't."
Here the rumble of carriage wheels
sounded outside. There's the coach.
exclaimed Lomaque, locking up the
brandy bottle, and taking his hat.
After all, as this arrest is to be made,
it's as well for them that l should
make it,"
Consoling himself as he best could
with this reflection, Chief Police Agent
Lomaque blew out the candles, and
Quilted the room.

At this avowal, Danville's suppressed

At this avowal, Danville's suppressed
anger burst beyond all control.
Give 1t him back" he cried, In a
voice of fury. you shall take no pres
ents from him; the venom of the house

Give 1t him backw She hesitated. "You
won't?" He tore the book from her
with an oath-threw 1t on the floor and
set his foot on 1t,

Trudaine was stepping forward. as
the book fell to the floor. At the same
moment his. sister threw her arms

him closer. mot after five years.

He gently detached her arms.
"You are right, love. Don't be afraid;
it's all over now"
Saying that, he put her from him,
and in silence took up the book from
the floor.
won't that offend you even?" said
Danville, with an insolent smile. you
have a wonderful temporary other
man would have called me out"
Trudaine looked back at him stead
lily, and taking out his handkerchief,
passed it over the soiled cover of the
book.
IF I could wipe the stain of your
blood off my conscience as easily as
can wipe the stain Of your boot off this
book" he said quietly, you should not
live another hour. Don't cry, Rose"
he continued, turning again to his sis
ter, Il will take care Of your book for
you until you can keep 1t yourself"
''You will do this! you will do that"
cried Danville, growing more and more
exasperated, and letting his anger get
the better even of his cunning now
