A breathless world waits still for the
dead sure facts of that great conspiracy
which the London Scotland Yard de-
t~ectives claim to have uIearthcd-that
1iabolical plot which was 10 blow not
only the car Of Russia out Of the
world, but even the Prince of Wales, if
not the aged and beloved queen Of Eng
land herself, and ON the strength of
which lyman, the American citizen,
was arrested at Boulogne; Edward Bell,
another American citizen. at Glasgow.
while two other alleged conspirators,
Kearney and Wallace. were captured at
Rotterdam. The Fenians may be bad
enough, but it is yet to be recorded that
they have any sympathy with the nj
hilists Of continental Europe, or any
spite at any car. English papers have
freely asserted that it meant death for
lyman if he once could be brought to
England, but that would involve prov
ing lyman really had a hand in the
Phoenix park murder of Burke and Lord
Frederick Cavendish in Ireland q dozen
years ago. Tha convincing evidence
against this is the fact lyman has SO
freely claimed he had q hand in that
atrocious deed. 1t is not like persons who
help with such dastardly and bloody
crimes to openly admit it. They would
be more apt to maintain eternal silence,
as those engaged in the foul murder Of
DIR. Cronin in Chicago have done.

Statistics of Farm Animals.

Bulletin No. II of the miscellaneous
series of the United States department
of agriculture presents in tabulated
form the condition of the American live
stock industry from 1880 to 1896.
All the live stock in the country in
1896 is valued at $1,727, 926, 0S4. This
is only $751;, 008, 52S more than the
value in 1880. Nothing illustrates the
present condition of the live stock in
dustry more forcefully if at the same
time we remember that the population
of the Union has increased from co.
900, 900 in 1880 to 70. 900, 900 in 1896.
For nine years following 1880 both
numbers and values of farm animals
increased steadily and rapidly. in 1889
the value was 81, 507, O50. So. In 1890
the first symptoms of decline began, the
year of the Barring failure, though what
connection that event could have with
live stock in the United States is not
clear. The value has been going down
irregularly ever since. During 1892 and
1898 it rose feebly. only to drop more
rapidly han before. In 1894 it fell
more than 800. 900. 900; in 1895 over
$315, 900. 900. Fol- 1896 the value is the
smallest in 10 years. The principal
losses have fallen on horses, mules and
sheep. Horses alone have fallen off
s113, 156, 225 since 1880. Their number
is. however. greater than it was then,
although that has declined heavily since
1898. The same is true of mules. OF all
animals, cattle-milk COWS and beeves
are the only ones that show a good
advance i'll value since 1880, although
these, too, have fallen off greatly in
the past two years. On the whole, 1895
and 1896 seem to be the most disastrous
years live stock breeders have
tered in many a day.

Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly
For May, 1896.

The illustrated 'Lee of Virginia
series is continued in the May npm-
her OF Frank Leslie's Popular month";
ly with a paper by henry Tyrrell,
relating to General Lees part in the
momentous events of the years 1859
1869. These events include the John
Brown raid at Harper's Ferry, the
secession Of the Southern States and
outbreak of the Civil War, General
Lees resignation from the United
States Army, and appointment to
the command OF the Confederate
forces of Virginia, his campaign in
the West, the establishment of JEFF
ferson Davis at Richmond as Presi-
dent of the Confederacy, the first bat
tie of Bull Run, and General McCel-
lain's invasion of Virginia by way of
the Peninsula and advance upon
Richmond. Akin to this subject is d
charming sketch written by Mrs. JEFF
ferson Davis, descriptive of life in the
white House of the Confederacy"
during the war. Mrs. Roger A. Pryor
adds an interesting chapter and an
exquisite portrait to her Ancestry
of General Lee.n Other notable fea-
lures of the number are the illustrat-

More About the Royal Arcanum.

The Napoleon Council No. 1856 met
last Friday evening with the usual
attendance. After the necessary
business was transacted and recess
taken, at which time refreshments
were served, it was decided upon to
celebrate the 10th anniversary of the
founding or the Royal Arcanum by a
social gathering at the Rink Opera
House on the evening of June 23rd,
at 7:30p. III.
The following committees were
chosen to look after the matter and
see to it that all necessary arrange
ments be made to secure for the in
vited guests a royal good time:
Committee on Reception: Frank
Wilson, Gale B. Orwig, J. c. Musser,
Mrs. JAS Donovan, Mrs. L. L. Orwig
and Mrs. f. j. Beck.
Committee ON Music: DIR. A. E. H.
Maerker.
Committee on Rink: j. L. Halter.
Committee on Toasts. Isaiah Leist.
Committee on Invitations: F. j.
Beck, l.. L. Orwig, r. Weisbach and
Henry Kolbe.
1t will be we'll enough to state
right here that the object of this
social gathering is not alone for the
purpose of satisfying hunger and
thirst and having a good time all
around, but it is to show to the
outside world that provisions have
been made in case of the death of a
brother that his wife and children
are provided for; with these pleasant
associations and the knowledge of
this fact is all the compensation de-
sired by the surviving brother: We
know that it will help to sooth the
despairing cries; to answer some of
the prayers, and it will help to still
the wall of anguish and succor the
oppressed. Now with these facts
staring us square in the face, it be-
hooves every Royal Member to be
present on this occasion and assist in
making it success which will in
duce others to join with us.

is held by her nighbors. May Mr..

brate the century mark and their

Gov. Campben,s silver Views,

A special from New York, of Satur-
day, says: Former Governor James
E. Campbell, of Ohio, spent several
hours yesterday in Wall street, with
Colonel Gurley, of his state.
When he returned to the Metropole
late in the afternoon he expressed
himself in favor of free silver, but
with a restriction, to which he said
even Wall street would not seriously
object.
"The leaders of the silver move
ment in the democratic party are
conservative and will work earnestly
to prevent any such catastrophe. The
idea would like to see adopted is
this:
Declare for free silver. Demand
that the government at Washington,
though the president and congress, is
sure call to the commercial nations
of both hemispheres to meet in con-
ference with us at Washington for
the one purpose specified in the call,
of devising a method of putting sill
yer on par with gold as money of
the world.
The conference occurring, we wonld
agree with such nations as we could.
Such as agreed with us we could of
ferspecial tariff favors on the recipro-
city principle. To such as did not we
could turn a tariff cold shoulder. We
are every nations best customer and
all would at last be..made to agree.
SHOULD none agree with us, would
have this nation declare for free silver
on It's sole responsibility and fix date,
as for instance, January 1, 1899, when
silver and gold would meet at our
mints for coinage on equal terms.
This would leave an open time of two
years in which trade would adjust
itself to the new conditions.
"All conferences SO far have merely
been child's play. This one would be
different. France and Germany are
now on the verge of adopting silver.
They need only slight incentive to
push them over the line.
with France, Germany and Amer
ica in the field England would be &C
tually obliged to come in. We could
make things so warm for her by
tariff and reciprocity treaties that
she would accede to the terms adopt
ed. When this country is in earnest
England Yields every time. That has
been repeatedly shown, particularly
of late.n

SPEAKING of the recent act of the
House of Representatives, wherein it
voted $4,000 of the peoples money
to pay for clerk hire when congress is
not in session, the Phi ladelpha Re
cord has the following to say: There
is no legislative body in the world
so costly to the people as the con
gress of the United States, The SEN
ate has added to the extra expendi-
lures above the yearly salary of its
members one ITEM after another un-
til the pay for subordinate service is
nearly as great as sum paid for SEN
atorial service. The House is follow
ing swiftly this bad example. What
shall be thought of the hypocritical
outcry about the depression of bust
ness, the necessity of economy and
the depletion of the treasury after
this raid upon the pockets of the
people, whereby each member will
be enabld not only TO draw his own
salary but to make the government
pay another man for the labor he
should do himselt?n

ABSOLUTELY PURE
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
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound orimperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dtion, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

DEAR reader did you ever stop to
think that there are always two sides
to story? When you have some
dreadful scandal or tale of alleged
wrong-doing poured into your ears,
just stop a bit and asked what is back
of it all. Did you never think how
many people like to excuse
their own wrong doings, or are
moved. by some motive of revenge
when.they set out to ruin another's
character? The remembrance that
there ARE always two sides to every

Ralph Wright and Fannie Show
man Narrowly Escape
Downing.

Last Sunday evening Ralph
Wright of this place, and Miss Fan
ME Snowman, of Texas, met with
an experience which they are not
likely soon to forget. They had been
out driving and were returning home
along the canal road late in the even
ing. When about one-fourth mile
east of Texas sudden storm came
up and the horse became unmanaga-
BILE and plunged over the canal bank,
which at this point is about twenty
feet high and very steep. The bug
gy and its occupants, and also the
horse, went crashing down the bank
and into the water, the horse and
buggy being entirely submerged.
Very fortunately Wright was not en-
tangled in the wreckage, and on
coming to the surface his first
thought was of the lady. He called
to her, and receiving no answer con-
cluded that she must be entangled
in the wrecked buggy, which was ly-
ing top down in the water, so he
dove into the water and found her
fast in the top of the buggy, and sue
ceeded in rescuing her from her peril
GUS position and bringing her safely
to land. After ascertaining that she
was not seriously injured he went
back into the water and cut the
harness and released the horse. The
buggy was badly damaged.
Miss Snowman doubtless owes her
life to the presence of mind and
prompt action of Mr.. Wright. She
was at once taken to her home, and
aside from being badly frightened
was none the worse for her involun-
tary bath. 1t was narrow escape for
both OF them.-Liberty Press.
