OUR TRADE WITH GERMANY.
Dr. Koch Hopes Mckinley Has Abandoned
 Extreme Protection

Berlin, Nov. 22.-Dr. Koch, governor of the reichsbank, has submitted to an interview upon the question as to how the trade of Germany is to be affected by the election of Mckinley as presi- dent of the United States. In answer. to this specific query, Dr. Koch said:
 We must wait and see. At all events Mckinley is a lesser evil than Bryan. I am hopeful that Mckinley has abandoned his policy of extreme protection, but we are not secure from surprises and We ought to be prepared for that. It is to our interest that German trade should stand well in Am erica and we are ready to give or take"

MINERS TO RESUME WORK.
President Ratchford Says That the Old
 Price Has Been Restored.

Columbus, O., Nov. 22.-President Ratchford of the United Mine Workers notified Secretary Pearce yesterday that he has succeeded in restoring the 61 cent rate in eastern Ohio and to- morrow all the mines along the line of the Baltimore and Ohio, from Bellaire as far west as Glencoe, will resume on full time. The miners in that dis trict refused to work for 45 cents on the ground that the coal mined did not come into competition with that mined at Pittsburg. The Jackson miners are in thorough sympathy with the Hook
 ing Valley district, but it is believed that they will be influenced by the action of eastern Ohio miners to go to work soon and that the Hooking Valley operators will be forced to pay 61 cents.

Those Useful Conduits,

The kidneys and bladder, sometimes
become torpid and weak from unas-
certainable causes When this oc-
ours, their discharging function is
of necessity very imperfectly per
formed, and certain debris, which is
the result of natural bodily waste
and decay, does not escape as it
should, but remains to corrupt the
blood and develop poisonous humors
and dangerous as well as painful
diseases. 1t is one of the beneti.
cent effects of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters to gently stimulate the
urinary organs, and prevent them
from lapsing into state OF mac
tivity, always provocative OF their
infammatory degeneration and de,
cay. How much better then is it
to adopt this mild diuretic as a
means of melting them to action,
than to incur the danger of this de-
struction. To expel from the sys-
tenn waste matter through the bow
els and kidneys, and to regulate
and arouse the stomach and liver,
are among the chief uses Of this
valuable remedy.

Grandson Collins was arrested a

their eye on the place as being a

there yesterday and made a haul,

around asking the name of each

them. One negro told the Mayor
that it was none of his - business

Hardin then arrested him, and dur

F. G. WOOTTEN. City Editor.

When Schrader hit the grit in a
small town between benson and
Houston, Texas, on Friday, for a
one days stop, he did not know the
town was loaded for him. He was
met by the Mayor, aldermen and
leading citizens and welcomedto to the
village in speech made by the
Mayor. The head of the town al
fairs told him his fame had pre-
ceded him; that the town contained
many cripples, few consumptives
and some blind, and they wished
them all treated, but before they
were brought to his presence, they
would require of him walk upon
the water as did Christ, when the
sailors began to doubt his Identity,
and with this a carriage rolled up,
Schrader was put in it under his
protest and driven to a lake and
told to get in there and walk on the
waves, or else he must get out OF
that village in five minutes. He
told the crowd he could neither
walk on the waves or could he swim
lick, and he would leave as soon
as the next train came along. Some
of the crowd wanted to duck him,
and he was scared into "duck-lit"
nearly, but he was let of, to fake
some other place. This is the way
Texarkana should treat some of
those fake prophets" We let

QUEER MODES OF BURIAL.-The
Mohammedans always, whether in
their own country or In one Of adop.
ton, bury without coffin or casket of
any kind. During the time of the old
Roman empire the dead bodies of all
except suicides were burned. The
Greeks sometimes buried their dead
in the ground, but more generally cre-
mated them, in imitation of the Ro-
mans. In India, up till within the
last few years, the wife, either accord
ing to her wishes or otherwise, was
cremated on the same funeral pyre
that converted her dead husbands re.
mains into ashes. When child dies
in Greenland the natives bury live
dog with it, the dog to be used by the
child as guide to the other world.
When questioned in regard to this Pc
culiar superstition, they will only an
swer: "a dog can find it's way any.
where" The natives of Australia tie
the hands of their dead together and
pull out their nails. This is for fear
that the corpse may scratch out of the
grave and become a vampire. The
primitive Russians place certificate
of character in the dead persons
hands, which is to be given to st. Peter
at the gates of heaven.

nifty. However, this may be, I will re.
late an incident illustrating his infu-
ence in settling difficulties between
contenGing parties, amicably. We
had q case OF discipline in Smyrna
church. Two prominent families in
the church, on citation, had met to
answer specific charges made by the
session. Witnesses were present, with
many of the friends of each party.
The session was apprehensive that
the trial would be attended with much
bitterness, and perhaps serious result.
Among the friends present was Cap
tain McGill, the patriarch of the con-
gregation, more than 80 years of age.
He made a most earnest and tender
appeal to the parties to settle their
difficulties between themselves and
not suffer it to go before the session
where witnesses would be called upon
to state facts which might prove irri-
tating. He, though private men,

are the peacemakers; for they shall

we cherish the memory of Captain
McGill, let US not forget her who was
the companion of his bosom, tender
and faithful as a wife, and who was a
very important factor in making the
McGill family what they now are, as
influential members of the church
and of the community in which they
reside. In conclusion, I have reason
to believe that my sojourn in the
above family, and among the other
families constituting the congregation
of Smyrna, was mutually both pleas.

TOOK DEATH CALMLY.

DR.. Mackey Described the Stages Of His
Own Destruction.
The suicide of DR.. Argyle Mackey,
in Baltimore, has already been no.
ticed in THE ENQUIRER; but some OF
the interesting facts concerning the
character and history of the act are
Just beginning to come to light. DR..
Mackey was native of Chester and a
son of ex-Judge Thomas J. Mackey.
He fired the fatal shot last Wednesday
week ago and died the next morning
at 8 o'clock in a Baltimore hospital.
The bullet entered his breast just over
the heart, passing through the left
lung. An account of the scene at the
suicides death bed says:
"The death bed scene of the suicide
was remarkable one. Members OF
his family, physicians and nurses OF
the hospital were near the bedside.
At times he expressed desire to re-
cover and then again wished the end
would come. He remained steadfast
in his refusal to disclose the name OF
the girl who is it supposed impelled him
to attempt his life and who wrote the
letter found on him. He was con-
scious to the last and calmly noticed
each change in his condition as the
end drew near. To the doctors he ex-
pressed most minutely the character
of his wound and the causes that were
leading to his death. He even tried
to feel his own futtering pulse, and
told how every beat of his heart was
throwing into the lung cavity certain
portion of his life blood, and measured
with remarkable accuracy the length
of time the internal hemorrhage would
take to kill him. He repeatedly felt
the tips of his fingers and noted the
slowly decreasing power of circula-
ton and the peculiar sensations of ap-
preaching death. Early in the night
his body began to swell, and he readi
ly explained that the swelling was
due to the escape of air from the left
lung, which the bullet had punctured.
His nerve was wonderful and he was
as calm as if he had been one of the
professors of the hospital delivering q
clinic lecture at the bedside of a dying
patient. He bade his weeping mother
and brother farewell, with no more
emotion than if he had been going on
short journey. He told them that
he was sorry he had shot himself, and
wished he could recover. He told his
mother he had but dim recollection
of the rash act, and attributed it to
drink alone. He said when he drank

BRYAN SATISFIED.
His Trip Through the East Was Eminently
Successful.

His Trip Through the East Was Eminently
Successful.
In an interview in Chicago last Fri
day, VIM. Jennings Bryan said: ~
am perfectly satisfied with the result
of my trip east, and my observation is
not based simply on impressions form
ed from the rostrum. To address peo-
pie by the tens of thousands as have
done since leaving Chicago would nat
urally carry with it the impression
that the audiences addressed were
swayed by the utterances delivered.
A speaker is apt to be carried away
by such an idea. But when say that
I am satisfied with the result of my
trip east do not mean that my obser-
vation from the speakers standpoint
led me to suppose that the large au-
diences whom I have addressed were
carried away with the principles ad-
vocated as their applause would ap-
pear to indicate. My estimate is bas-
ed on entirely different sources.
"People whom I have met and who
have mingled with audiences at Demo-
cratic gatherings have voluntarily
come forward to assure me that the
sentiment was veering around toward
the Democratic platform. I have TAX
en- occasion after leaving the speakers
stand to talk with men whom / have
observed in the audiences ON the doubt-
full seat, if I might so express myself,
regarding the currency question. Such
men have come to me afterward and
have expressed themselves as more
than half convinced that the tenets Of
the Chicago platform were after all the
truest in the popular interest. Others
have come to pe, men who even disa-
gree with our party principles, and
have assured me that the change in
sentiment toward the free coinage of
silver was something they had never
seen the like Of. Added to this, the
appreciation which every public speak
er cannot fail to discern in the eyes Of
sympathetic audience has convinced
me that a large proportion of the peo-
pie whom have addressed have been
impelled to applaud, not out of SYM
pathy with the speaker, but out Of ap-
probation of The truths spoken. If q
speaker be qualified to judge of the
effect of his speeches on audiences
then think that without egotism I
may say the people whom ! have met
and addressed are far more enthusias-
tic in favor of free silver than when
the campaign began"

large assembly into fits of laughter.
1t was at a public meeting in New
York. One of the speakers, the Rev.
Mr.. R., had the misfortune, when he
tried to take q seat, to miss his chair
and come down at full length on the
platform. The accident occasioned
not a little subdued mirth. When at
last it came his turn to speak, the pre-
siding officer introduced him in these
words: "The Rev. Mr.. r. will again
