We have heard of a number of
go!d-bug pamphlets and documents
being ranked to bank officials by
Chester l. Long. Some of them
are finding their way into free silver
and Populist camps. This is a lit.
tie like the fellow who tried to beat
his board bill. Letting his valise
down from the fourth story with a
rope, when it was opposite the hotel
office window the landlord pulled it
in and shouted "Let loose, I've got
it." Send 'em on Chester; we are
getting them.

Nerves are weak, many people say,
and yet they do not seem to know
that they are literally starving their
nerves. Weak, pale, thin blood can
not give proper sustenance - that is
why you are nervous, tired, exhausted.
The cure FOR this condition is to
purify, vitahze and enrich your blood.
Take Hoods SarSaparilla fairly and
faithfully, and the rich, red blood,
which it makes, will soon feed the

Hon. Harry Bone of Ashland, who
was in the city yesterday, told a story
about Elder Jerry BOtkin that is worth
repeating. Elder Jerry is around max
ing POpulist speeches and spreading
the seeds of discomfort. He was at
Ashland last week, and among other
things Said that he had left the puplit
and a salary of 81 800 a year to spread
the gospel Of reform without pay or
hope of recOmpense. In addition he
INDUCED in a great TRADE against the
practice Of getting fayOrs from rail
road companies. 81 want to say"
said Mr.. Bone, that BOtkin is in err
rOr when he says he left the pulpit
and 81 800 year to be Populist for
nothing. On the contrary he left the
pulpit and $500 a year to 60 to the
forum of congressional life at $1,000
per year. That is why he left the
pulpit and everybody knows it. But
to return to my story. Botkin, after
finishing his political missionary work
in our town, went to the depot aud
got transportation TO COldwater on
the rate Of half-fare prescribed for
the ministerial profession. Thus you
see that while he said he had quit the
pulpit to go into politics he travels
as minister and talks as a politician.
Great head is that owned by Jerry
BotFin. Wichita Eagle.
"Everbody knows" that when
Harry Bone says Botkin left the
pulpit to go to Congress he writes
himself common liar. "Every-
body knows" that the nominations
were all made when Botkin resign
ed, and that several weeks after his
nomination Jeff Hudson declined to
run in the third district and Botkin
was chosen to fill the vacancy.
Secondly as to his using or abus-
ing his privileges as a minister with
the railroads: The writer knows
that after his resignation as pastor
here Rev. Botkin carried his half.
fare permits in his pocket without
using them. Station agents and
conductors expressed surprise at his
doing so but Botkin did not think it
would be honorable to use them.
The half fare permit he now has
was sent him by the company as a
Supernumerary, which relation he
now holds in the conference, and on
this basis it is certainly honorable
for him to use it.
Is it not time for good citizens to
frown on such mean contemplate
filings against honest citizens who
entertain honest convictions about
the perils Of our country, as this one
from Harry Bonef We have no
counter-charges to make against
Harry Bone, Everybody knows
what he is. He would feel ashamed
of himself # he had any proper con-
ception Of principle above par.

FUN HAD At P|CN|CS
CENTRAL UNION CHILDREN HAVE
A FINE TINE AT PUNAHOU.
Fifteen Hundred Given Pleasant
-Features-Outing at Remond
Grove and the Peninsula.

The joint picnic of the Central
Union and NJ. e. Sunday schools at
Punahou Thursday passed off in a
most satisfactory manner. 1t began
at 10 o'clock in the forenoon and did
not end until late in the afternoon.
About $500 persons, principally child
rem, attended.
A feature of the day was the excel
lent manner in which the great crowd
was taken care of. Being mostly young
people the demand for refreshments
was something extraordinary, yet,
there was enough and to spare. With
sixty dozen sodas, seventy-eight big
watermelons, several barrels of lemon
ade, and sandwiches, cake, coffee and
other good things galore, the little
people had all they could handle.
The lunch at noon was excellent.
Officers and teachers of the Sunday
schools became the hosts of the occa-
sion and looked to the interests Of
everyone. Somebody said there was
enough left to feast 500 more people
than were present.
On the grounds swings were going,
base ball was in progress and the ten
mis- courts were occupied all the time.
The new college building was open
and all had look through it. Prof
Hosmer, Mr.. j. @. Wood, Miss Axtell
and other members of the faculty re-
ceived visitors at the door and escort
ed them through the beautiful rooms.
Everybody had a real good time, and
the affair will be remembered as one
of the most successful picnics on
record.
The Christian church Sunday school
the Salvation Army and the Portu-
guese Mission all had picnics down the
railroad Thursday. Nine cars took the
Portuguese got off at Remond grove
and the other two parties stopped on
the Peninsula.
There handsome lunch was en-
joyed, and sports, games, swinging
and songs went to make up delight

three cheers were given for Mr.. Dill
