After being Gagged two months they be-

to thrust their long, slender, thread

The birds in the saloon window at

PHYSICIAN, NOT DOCTOR.
Practitioners Are Not Pleased at Hav

Physicians of culture are not patient
with the name doctor" as applied to
the profession, says the New York
Herald"

Herald square drug store yesterday.
MY profession is that of a physician.
not of doctor. Doctor is my title, and
it belongs to law. theology, pedagogy
and lots of things besides medicine Yet
persons will continually say, He is a
Doctor Won't persons remember that
doctor is a mere academical title, and
belongs to one who has taken the high
est degree conferred by university or
college?"
The little outburst of INDIGNATION
brought to my mind story that is told
of Chauncey M. Depew, LII. D. 1t ap-
pears that Mr.. Depew was in a railway
car in Illinois, when a gentleman with
whom he had been in conversation left
him with the words. "Good-by doctor -
Are you a dcctor?" asked a man in
the seat behind him.
Yes" answered Mr.. Depew with a
smile.
well, then, I wish you could tell
what's the matter with me, for / have
an awful pain just below my ribs on the

seat of the pain with his hand

is to recommend that tunnel be drilled

BERLIN, Sept. 13.-(Copyright, 1896,
by the United-Associated Presses y
The Emperor will remain several days
at Siegsdorf, where he has gone for the
purpose of shooting, and Prince Hohen-
lOhe will start tomorrow for his estates
In Styria, where he will engage in the
sport of chamois hunting. Prince RADIO
line. the German ambassador to Rus
sia, started for England on Thursday
for the purpose of transacting private
business. and Count Capnist, the Rus
sian ambassador to Austria, who is the
probable successor of Prince Lobanoff-
Rostosky, has left Vienna for sojourn
at BaritZ with his family.
These facts have been cleaned with
view of gauging the value of the eX-
cited rumors which have been flying
about the bOurseS that political deluge
in Turkey is imminent. Beyond ques-
ton developments of the most acute
nature are at hand but they will not be
reached to-day, nor are they likely to
manifest themselves until the Czar's
tour is finished and that monarch re-
turns to st. Petersburg.
Lord Salisbury's so-called independ-
ent policy in Turkey, which is doubtless
seen in the action of Sir Philip Currie,
the British ambassador at COnstanu-
nople, in presenting to the Porte note
protesting against the Government s
expulsion of Armenians from the Turk
ish capital without consulting the rep
resentatives of the Powers, is not taken
here SO seriously as implying the ap-
pearance of British fleet in the Bos-
phorus to enforce the special British de-
mands, and the absence of several En-
bassadors from Constantinople ought to
furnish sufficient proof of the suspen-
sion of the final Turkish crisis.

dor who has had an audience with the

FIRST REPUBLICAN CLUB.
Sacramento Had the Pioneer 0rsaniza-
tiOn.
It Was Formed Here on tho 9Th
Day Of March. in
1855.

Major I. j. Blakeney, who twenty
odd years ago was Internal Revenue
Assessor in the Sacramento District,
but tor long time past has been Su-
perintendent of the Pacific Coast Life
saving Stations has now in his possess
sion, says the San Francisco "Chron-
lcle, the original records of the first
Republican organization on the Pacific
Coast, the Republican Association of
the city of Sacramento" which was or
ganized March 8, 1856. They were kept
in an old ledger, which was afterward
| used as an account book by Major
Blakeney's brother in New York City,
and which almost miraculously escaped
destruction. After the civil war, in
| which Major Blakeney served, he hunt
ed the old volume up, and it has ever
since been in his possession. Recently
the Major has cut from it the few pages
containing the record and has had them
neatly bound between cloth covers for
presentation to the Republican State
Central Committee on the eve Of the
! coming election.
Major Blakeney was one of the nine
| teen charter members Of the organiza-
ticn. All of his colleagues have be-
come since more or less famous for the
parts they have played in the history OF
| California. The platform in those days
was anti-slavery, and the state Of pub
| lie feeling was SO intense that it re-
quired nerve to sign the articles of the
! association. Many men who have since
become prominent in State and national
politics were there, but refused to sign.
The declaration Of principles was con-
| tanned in the following article:
A tip1o Tbird--Tho ,ri, iy,1n a H.
vccate are the complete withdrawal of
| all support to slavery by the Federal
Government, without disturbing that
institution as, it exists in the present
slave States; firm and uncompromising
| opposition to the extension of slavery
and the admission Of any more slave
! States and we pledge ourselves to use
all legal and proper means to redeem
! the State of California and the Federal
| Government from the control of the
slave power"
| The signatures subscribed to the
articles were E. B. Crocker, c. Cole,
William ]. c. Taylor, c. P Huntington,
| Francis Turkey, c. @. Caldwell, E. L..
Barber, John H. Miller, Thomas Hill,
Joseph Gramnus, Seth Babson, Joel
Ware, Hy A. Burnett, A. M. Allyn, f..
Fl. Miller, Jr., George w. Harrison,
! Samuel @. Foster, Horace Lovely,
Thomas J. Blakeney.
| Edwin 3. Crocker was President of
the organization, Cornelius Cole Secre-
tary, and Thomas Hill Treasurer. Only
! two meetings were held, one on March
%. 1856, and the other on April 9TH Of
| the same year.
| The minutes show, briefly, that Pas
| chal Coggins was appointed as agent
| to organize the party in the counties
preparatory to sending delegates to teh
| State Convention, and that $500 cop
| les of the Evening Journal" contain
| ing the "Pittsburg address," were pur-
| chased for 800 and distributed

HUMMING BIRDS.

members of the feathered tribe were
owned by friend of mine a while since
and exhibited in the window of the late
proprietor of a saloon in Broadway,
New York. In fact, instances are nu-
merous in which they have been kept
for months, and even for years in
cages, in England as we'll as in this

By certain papers OF this State, includ-
ing the esteemed Register. that Pres

the state Democratic ticket, and they
are not a little surprised that the can
didate whose local residence is thus be-
ing so placed has not seen fit to cor
rec. the error. Preston cOuaty has no
such candidate.

Preston county for several years prior
20 the year 1898, about which time he
engaged in silver and other mining
sDeculations in the State Of Colorado.
Since that time we do not consider aim
a resident Of Preston, EOr is IL under
stood that he claims TO be.
How the erroneous impression got
abroad among the newspapers is not
known. but it should in all fairness TO
us be corrected If this county desires
a place on the State Democratic ticket
for one OF her 'favoTite sons" and 1t
is whispered BY the knowing ores that
she does, she does not want, and does
not intend to be handicapped in the
race by a candidate accredited to her,
who belongs elsewhere.

Ra9ublican-ridden Democrats Of Pres
