D'9'i"oiS bettcr CONDITIONS Produced by
Foreign Demand for wheat.
NEW YORK, Oct 10-R g. Dun & Co. s
weekly review of trade says Distinctly
better conditions have appeared of late,
ana are rejected in somewhat larger em-
ployment of labor, in larger transactions.
and in continued buying of materials for
manufacture A great part Of the change
is due TO the demand abroad for our wheat
and the unusually heavy foreign demand
for corn, which Is n rarely failing sign of
deficient crops abroad, where other grains
are used instead when wheat becomes
scarce and dear
Bradstreets' review saws: Colder
weather, continued heavy receipts of cot
ton and wheat and other influences have
stimulated demand for the staple goods at
various points but the volume of trade
remains moderate without material
change from a week ago The tendency
at some centers is to a smsller volume of
trade, but the general outlook is for an
improved demand after election. Interior
merchants adhere to the hand-to-mouth
policy of buying. and wholesale merchants
are inclined to examine into credits closely.
With the prospect favoring an excep-
tionally large demand for wheat for ex-
port within the next six months larger
supply than heretofore reported, is likely
to prove fortunate. The total exports of
wheat this week amount to 1850. .772
bushels, against 4,215,OOO bushels last
week, 2,244 600 bushels in the first week of
October, 1895, 3,8l7OOO bushels in 1894,
2,s62,OOO bushels in 1893 and 3,625. .OOC
bushels in the corresponding week of 1892.
There are POI business failures in the
United States reported this week, de-
cline Of thirty-four as compared with last
week, but an increase of seventeen as COM
pared with the first week in October, 1895,
and an increase Of tifty-tbree as compared
with the corresponding week in 1894.
When contr isted with the corresponding
total in 1873 this weeks falling off is 10

A RICH STRIKE.
Pioneer of Black Hills Discovers
a Gold Mine In Mexico.
Jeff McDermott Is the Lucky Man and
He Is Likely to Become a MIL
Notwithstanding to Work
the Mine.

JEFF McDermott, one Of the pioneers
CT the Black Hills region, is likely to
become a millionaire. Some time ago
he went to old Mexico, and in a camp
known as Baborigame met Cad Free
man, an old-time friend who had be-
come Mexican in mode of life. Free
man had a valuable concession of min
eral land from the government, embrac.
ing a scope of country 30 miles in length
and several miles in width. He took Nc
Dermott in as partner, and the latter
at once commenced prospecting for
quartz. He soon discovered a ledge IL
feet wide of high-grade ore. The ledge
was stripped for 1000 feet of its length
and samples of the ore sent to ST. Louis
that an expert, accompanied by other
interested parties, started at once for
the camp. They made a thorough ex-
omination and took a complete sample
rom the vein to Denver for the purpose
of having it assayed. A number of as
says were made, all with the same re-
suit, the values ranging from $4,000 to
$4,000 gold ton. The final test was
one load of so pounds, and this yielded
gold to the amount of S22.65. A sale was
at once made of sixty-fourth interest
in the property to the st. Louis parties
IN consideration of 100000 and the
erection of a mill on the property. The
s22.65 button was presented to Mrs. Nc
Dermott, who was in Denver at the
time the assays were made. The GER
tificate shows the metal to be almost
pure. McDermott writes to his friends
IN South Dakota that Mexico is great
country. The mines have been worked
in slipshod manner by the natives, who
have no knowledge of modern methods

An elopement somewhat out of the

Jeffersonville, Ind. the other evening.
John Parsons and Miss Anna Black, of
Oldham county, KY, astride of a tan
dem, reached Louisville in the after
noon, and at once started, via the Big
Fur bridge, followed by mutual friend
on wheel, for Jeffersonville. They
halted under the Indiana approach and
waited until their friend sought the
services of Magistrate Keigwin, who
guided them to the county clerks office
for the license. This procured, Keig-
win and his companion repaired to the
bridge, where the couple to be married
were in waiting. Instead of going to
the magistrates Office to be united,
the twain decided to be married in the
saddles of the tandem, supported by
the friend on one side and Keigwin on
the other, who also served in the ca
pacity of officiating magistrate. The
novel marriage was witnessed by q
large and enthusiastic crowd.

North of Judge Bryan's farm were 24o
acres, which he wanted to get fer his
boys. Billy, who was the Oldest, he
thought might make lawyer, but he
was sure the others would be farmers
Finally the judge backed me and ]
leased the farm. The first season ]
had 240 acres of wheat. Just as I was
beginning harvest that year-it was
1s73-Judge Bryan rode out with Billy
and told me to make q hand OF him
and pay him what he was worth.
The boy was just out of school. ]
needed water boy, so I took Judge
Bryan's old buggy horse, tied two gallon
water jugs with rope and hoisted them
and Billy on the horses back. During
that harvest young Bryan followed the
machines around the field on the Horses
back. Even then that boy would dis
cuss politics at noon time.

own physical makeup. Halfknowledge
which is little better than pure Ignorance,
opens the way to an untold amount OF paiv
and wretchedness.
Few women realize the influence exerted
on their bodily and mental well-being by
the special organism of their sex. 1t is hard
for them to believe that the little drain
which goes on from day to day is sufficient
to sap away the very life forces. Yet 1t is so.
The weakness, exhaustion, melancholy the
periodical prostration and sometimes almost
torture has no other cause, two-thirds of the
time, than the abnormal unhealthy condi-
ton of the generative organs. Strangely
enough even doctors often fail to recognize
the truth, For this condition there is no
other remedy in the world so helpful and
certain as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It restores health and vigor to the feminine
functions and renewed vitality to the entire
body. 1t heals Inflammation, stops dis.
charges, strengthens the ligaments and
builds up the internal tissues which cannot
be reached by "local treatment. 1t is of
inestimable value to young women and to
prospective mothers, greatly lessening the
pains and perils of childbirth If taken dur.
ing pregnancy. During the change of
life 1t is invaluable.

voted to woman's diseases with suggestions for

Wong Chin Foo Wants His Countrymen
In and Machinery Ont.


In and Machinery Out.
Among the possibilities of convention
time is a new political party, which
shall have as chief aim the repeal Of
the Chinese immigration laws and the
abolition of labor-saving machinery.
The would-be founder of the new
party, which he would call the "Ameri-
can liberty party" is Wong Chin Foo,
a naturalized Chinaman, for nearly 20
years a resident of the United States,
and perhaps the most famous and fear
less champion of his race. .u.
Mr.. Foo tried to get the republican
and democratic national conventions
to allow him to speak before them, and
incorporate in their platforms plank
approving his principles. Both of the
conventions refused to grant the re-
quest, and he determined to establish
an independent party for the purpose.

BALTIMORE, Sept. l5.-Jake Kilrain,
the Baltimorean, who held the cham.
pionship Of the world in pugilism until
John L. Sullivan took 1t away from
him at Richburg, Miss, in 1850, and
Frank, otherwise known as paddy"
Slavin, the Australian, were the stars
in q lively fistic contest which took
place at the Eureka Athletic club. The
fight attracted large delegations Of
sporting men from all parts of the
country and some hard punching was
thought to be certain. The result was
O crowded amphitheater and any
amount Of enthusiasm. The event Of
the evening was called soon after 10
o'clock and proved bitter disappoint-
ment to the friends Of the ex.cham-
pion, who
Made Pitiful Exhibition.
When Kilrain stripped he looked to
weigh no less than 250 pounds and the
flesh hung from him in rolls. Slavin,
on the contrary, was in the pink Of
condition. Jake led with his left, but
it was a mere feather tap. Then slavin
sent out his left, landing lightly, and
the men clinched and began to play on
the wind. "Slavin hit hard but Kilrain
was not effective. Three times the
pugilists repeated this performance and
then Slavin caught Jake in the ribs.
Slavin hit his man terrific short arm
blow under the heart, threw his arm
around Kilrain's neck, hooked with his
right on the jaw, and the one-time
champion fell like q log. The round
lasted but two and q quarter minutes.

Republicans, having thorough Or
ganization, had meanwhile taken adj
vantage of the situation and committed
substantially all their voters to their
policy on the currency question before
the Democrats were reorganized in new
lines. Considering the conditions OF
the parties, the short time and limited
means that the Democrats had, the re-
suit is fully as good as could reasonably
be expected. Indeed, they have fought a
gallant fight against adverse conditions
and tremendous odds. In view OF the
above facts, the result can have but lit
tie effect on the national contest"
