taken away by the disease which causes
over one sixth of all the deaths i'll the
wor1d-the disease which doctors call con-
sumption. Consumption has been consid-
cred incurable, and the medical profession
has never made a greater mistake than this.
There is absolutely no reason in the world
why consumption should be fatal -why it
should be even serious. 1t is disease of
the blood, and can be cured absolutely and
always by purifying and enriching the
blood. The only exception to this is the
case where the disease has been neglected
and improperly treated until it is stronger

so weak as to have lost the ability to recu-
perate. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure eS per cent of all cases of
consumption if used according to direc-
tons. 1t also cures all lingering coughs,
bronchial and throat affections. There
is no reason why the child of consump-
tive parents need ever have consump-
ton if its blood and lungs are strength

1t is impossible to form an opinion
as to the merits of the controversy
between Great Britain and Venezuela
without flrst ascertaining the facts
connected with it, but we hardly think
it possible that bloody war can grow
from cause SO insignificant between
two such great and enlightened nations
as Great Britain and the Quilted States.
Such war would cut off all foreign
markets for our agricultural products
and probably ruin many persons in
terested therein, and especially those
who have mortgages on their lands.
Farmers and planters would be abso-
lutely impoverished, while the com
mercial and financial classes would be
paralyzed, and New England manu-
facturers would have the country by
the throat, and, having a monopoly,
would prescribe the prices of these
fabrics. Great Britain would be cub
jerted to similar evils, and both coun
tries would be afflicted with ruinous
taxation.-Rlchmond Times.

These rolls will enable the public to know

/, Dangerous Theatres.


The stampede in the Front Street
Theatre in Baltimore lass. week, which
resulted in the death OF about twenty
five persons and theinjnry of as many
ore, calls attention again to our own
death trap. We have ia Staunton the
finest opportunity to repeat the Balti-
more tragedy within the.broad domain
Of the United States. The stairways
of our theatre are steep, narrow, and
crooked. They have treacherous
breaks, and unexpected inequalities,
which. on ordinary occasions, twist
the ankle and unjoint the neck. What
would such stairways accomplish
were q panic stricken crowd rushing
down these devious inclines?
All this could be remedied by broad
stairway emptying the crowd on an
outside balcony, or the sacrifice of a
part of the room on the FIRST floor
VIII not our city council look after
this before the town is draped in

From Cuba.

The insurgents in Cuba continue
their destruction by fire of the cane
fields, to prevent the raising of sugar.
The latest reports from Santiago de
cuba say that the insurgents have
burned the canefelds of the Mejorana
estate, near Dos Caminos, on the road
to st. Louis, owned by the Pope's
nephew, Count Pecci. 1t was UPON
this plantation that Marti and Gomez
met Antonio Maceo, after landing in
Cuba last spring, and their first rebel
council of war was held upon the pre-
misses within sight of the Spanish gar
rlson, already established at Dos Can't
nos.
Months ago, owing to Pecci's fiat re-
fusal to pay the rebel tax, his fences
we're cut and his stock driven off. The
Countess Pecci. is Cuban by birth.
