the practical eliminations Of the short

couraged by liquidation in American

Evidence Against Jackson.
CINCINNATI, March 26. There were
significant rumors at the court house
in Newport yesterday in regard to the
trials of jackson and Walling for the
murder of Pearl Bryan. The rumors
were to the effect that the trial of jack
son was set first because it is believed
that Walling will weaken and turn
states evidence, and if he does Jack
sons conviction will be certain and
Walling will escape with light SEN
tence, even though his admissions show
him an accomplice. Counsel for the
prisoners have become aware OF the
fact that the state authorities in New
port have evidence which will be
sprung in the trials and make a strong
er case than merely circumstantial evi-
dence. In view of that fact, it will not
be surprisingif WaIling weakens
The jail officials say that jackson has
been worried and restless since the
hearing Monday. Walling is uncon

An Appeal to France and Russia for In
tervention In Egypt

CoNsTANTINoPLE, March 90. - The
council Of ministers which was held at
the palace on March 81 discussed the
situation in Egypt. Both the palace
authorities and the porte were greatly
annoyed at the fact that Turkey had
not been consulted in regard to the
Dongola expedition and were also irri-
tated because of the khedive's having
ignored the porte in the matter, and
messages were addressed to Moukhtar
Pasha, high commissioner of the porte
in Egypt, reproaching him for not
having put stop to the expedition.
The ministers also addressed an ap'
peal to France and Russia requesting
them to Intervene to the end of regu
lating the position of Egypt, and Ger
many was also asked to use her good
Offices in the same direction.

The Closing Demon stratiOu.

1t was UNNECESSARILY the grandest
parade that ever took place in this city
that closed the Peoples campaign
Monday night. There were fully / 200
people in line, 600 of whom carried
torches. Their line OF march was
lighted by redfire on each block rs the
passing pageant reached that locality
The theater was never thronged with
a larger or more enthusiastic crowd.
Men, women and children, We'd with
each other in manifestations of zeal
for the peoples cause. Mr.. Merrill,
the speaker of the evening was intro
duced by P. ID. Moore, who presided,
in few well-chOsen remarks. His adj
dress was a mastery exhOrtation, last
ing two hours, but in which interest
did not flag second. Oracle Forest
sang a new campaign ode, in a manner
which surprised even her friends, and
Master Semon, delivered short adj
dress and song which were highly APP
plauded. The cheering at the close
of the meeting for the National, State
and county ticket, might have been
heard in the adjoining counties had
those peoples ears been turned in our
direction.
There never was a more perfect I'M
ion of forces for a given object there
never was more complete local sue
cess, and we predict that there never
will be better party of "stayers" for
future effort.

Big I and Little You.

Olympia has business house where
young man is employed as clerk
He is probably as competent in bust
ness as most clerks, but his gift of gat
would indicate to Il stranger that he
was chief proprietor of the establish
ment.
The other day, gentleman, warm
friend of the firm, stepped into the
store to make small purchase and
was Immediately set upon by the
gifted clerk. "Now sir" said the
young man, =" I have not what you ask
for, but it makes no difference, sir; for
that is not what you want. I know
just what you want sir, and have got
it right here" The young man
turned to produce the goods and the
Disguised gentleman turned to leave
the store, but met the proprietor the
senior member of the firm coming in
as he was passing out. He stated his
wants to the proprietor and was in.
duced by his old friend to re.enter the
store. We have exactly what you
ask for" said the merchant with the
polish of business politeness, "and
will take pleasure in showing it to you. u
The goods were spread upon the
counter by the head man of the firm
and the bargain closed, but he never
said IL" in the transaction, nor would
stranger have suspected that he was
anything but we'll posted and well
bred clerk.
This little incident is given fol
what it is worth, and Olympia mer
chants can apply fitting moral.

A Novel Entertain I'M emit

On Thursday evening, November
9Th, at Olympia Theater, Zera Semon,
the most wonderful ventriloquist, with
his little son Laurence, began a
weeks engagement. The Tacoma
Union says of the show:
A fine entertainment is that which has
been given here during the week of
Zera Semon, and to this verdict we hear
not a dissenting voice. In fact one-half
of the programme would be full value
for the admission price, for everything
is so wonderful and so entertaining.
The marvellous slight of hand, wonder
full ventrioquism, the trained canaries,
the remarkably clever management of
the little marionette MINISTRIES and good
piano-forte music, made a programme
which cannot but delight any audience.
1t is a marvel how they can afford to
give away so many costly presents. To
night the leading one is a gold watch.
A silver watch was received ON Wednes-
day evening by A. M. Bonnyman, and a
gold one last evening by Lewis Ripple
G. Il. HiIlsOn and S. X. Howard have
received handsome tea sets. We advise
everybody to attend on this the last
night.

Authorization it Is Made.

! A. those interested in keeping the
serum treatment" alive are still try
ing to dcludc the public, il i well for
laymcn To understand something of
the manufacture af anti-toxinc and
bring their common sense to bear on
the subject which so many doctors do
not seem to he able to do. The well
known DIR. VIM. Cook of Chicago,
says: In the first place the name
antitoXinc is Il false one. The article
Is genuine toXine, (poison) and it is
the vilc,t form of diptheritic toxine at
that. Anti-toXinc is prepared by " cul
lures ",of the dipthretic hacilli (germs)
till the putrcsccnt changes have pro-
duced Il fluid So violently poisonous
that Il drop and a half will kill a
guinea pig i'll Is hours. This fluid is
then filtered to remove both living and
dead bacilli, and is called standard
toXinc." About ten drops of this is
then injected INTO an old Cheap horse
in whom it produces fever, loss of APP
petite, weakness, unsteady gait and
probably local ahcesScS. When the
fever has subsidized the toxine is repeated
and this process is continued every
two weeks for several months. If the
animal does not die during the process,
is many do, he finally becomes so
charged with the septic Qutrefying)
fluid us not to suffer from large dose
of the toXine. Then he is bled and
the serum (watcry portioii) of his
blood separated from its clot. This
fluid serum of the poisoned horse, pre-
served by carbolic acid is the anti-tox-
inc now sold for the cure of diphtheria.
BY the time it reaches the physician
an original investment of one hundred
dollars has Melted the manufacturer,
from two thousand to twenty five hun
drcd dollars.
We are asked to believe that this
toxinc will neutralize itself; that the
dipthrctic poison which came from a
human patient, and nearly killed
horse can go back from the horse and
cure diphtheria ia human patient.
When a horse dies during the process
of using him to prepare anti-toxine,
it is customary to find thrombi { blood
clots) in his lungs, the spleen softened
and II mass of congested cells, the
lymph nodules { those great sievcs to
strain out poisons) enormously en-
larged, the kidneys undergoing degen-
Grafton, and the heart muscle in state
of very fatty degeneration. All these
conditions exist more or less i'll chill
dren dying after the use of anti-toxine
and many who have recovered from
diphtheria even after the Use of this
poison aftcrward die of pneumonia.
Well may DIR. Cook say -" SO far as re-
latcs to anti-toxine, to administer it i'll
the light of the testimony already
piled up against it. is little less than a
crime"
P.S. English papers just received
add new testimony to the uselessness
and dangers of using anti-toxine.
and after knowing the history of this
so-called remedy, every parent must
refuse to use it, no matter what may
be urged in its favor by those who are
not disinterested in recommending it.

An italian who was unable to read
or write in any language, and whose
vocabulary in the English language
was restricted to one word, appeared
to be naturalized.
"What is your name?' asked his
honor.
Mckinley" replied the Italian.
Judge Burke smiled, while another
Italian furnished the desired informa
ton.
"Can you read or write the Eng

"If you can neither read nor write
how do you expect to voter" persisted
the court, while every one present
laughed.

with a decisive shake OF his head.
He was given his papers.

committee desires to express it's CRATE
full acknowledgements to the ladies
who labored 30 enthusiastically and
generously for hungry voters on cleo

result of the election in other States,
the free silver ladies OF the capital city
will ever occupy the place of honor in
the grand and irresistible movement for

that has been carried in so signal a
way to victory in the State of Was'h'
