NOMINATION NOT WANTED

There seems ito be no rush for candi- dates for the presidential nomination on the Democratic ticket. Lately an effort has been made to bring out Sec retary Carlisle as the proper candi- date. The Olney boom burst in the attorney-general's own state, where the leading Democrats pronounced against him.
 With Olney out of the way, and Car lisle not creating any considerable en- thusiasm, there ought to be a good fighting chance for some other man. Senator Gray ought to be able to rep resent the administration idea Of tariff reform, sound currency" and low prices. But we do not believe MT. Gray would create much confidence among the workingmen of the country Then the farmers might remember that "$1.25 wheat" that never came. But MT. Gray might inspire as many voters as any other Democrat who could be named. The boom of Hori- zontal Morrison seems to be slumber- ing by the wayside, and Senator 'Hi!rs echo that he is a Democrat has failed ito inspire a following for him. Why not try candidate of the blood-and- thunder order, and unite upon the aged General Morgan of Alabama? :? The senator could manufacture war sentiment by the yard and the Dem ocrats could be the at-any-price party.
 The Democratic party does not have much to stand upon. People have had enough of dull times and business de- preston and change will be vel comed by an overwhelming majority. The Republican party will stand for protection and honest money. The Democratic party VIII stand for de- ception and broken promises Any platform the Democrats can make will be regarded merely as jangle of meaningless words, and for this reason there is not a rush for the nomination.

The Last Man on Earth Will Be Smaller

The Last Man on Earth Will Be Smaller
 Than Fly.
 The surface of the earth is slowly but surelT diminishing, says the scientists. All the landed portion will be sub merged and the last man will be drowned.
 The ice is gradually aeeumu' lg at the north pole and slowly melting away at the south. Eventually the earth's center of gravity will suddenly change, and the last man will be crushed by the rush of movables that will quickly glide over it's surface.
 There is retarding medium in space causing gradua, loss in velocity in all of the planets. The earth. when her revolutions finally cease, will be drawn nearer and nearer to the sun until the last man will be literally roasted off the face of the earth.
 Beginning with the year 5000 A. D. humanity will commence to retrograde, and by the end of the year 1,0O0,0 man will be no larger and have no more in telligence than a plant louse. In that event there will be DO Hast man, ," re- marks the St. Louis Republic.
 The sun's fires will gradually burn out and the temperature cool; in conse- quence the earth's glacial zones will enlarge, driving shivering humanity toward the equator. At last the habit able space will lessen to nothing and oyercrowded humanity will be frozen in heap.

NONE BUT AYERS AT THE
 WORLDS FAIR.

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair, Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not a patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. It is here on it's merits"

You need blood purifier We make
 this assertion with confidence because it is a fact that there is scarcely one
 person in ten thousand whose blood is free from humors, scrofula, acids, or
 some taint, either hereditary or ac- quired. Pimples, boils, blotches, erup-
 tions are not the only indications. De-
 bility, lack of energy, depression of
 spirits, loss of appetite, rheumatic
 pains, poor sleep, headache, dizziness,
 specks floating before the eyes, and many other symptoms plainly indicate the need of thorough cleansing of the blood. The longer you delay, the more difficult will be the cure. The medicine to take is Ayers Sarsaparilla, and the time to begin is now. Con- tinue to take it through March, April
 and May, or until you feel that health and strength are fully restored, which will be when all those painful and troublesome symptoms are entirely re-
 moved The young, the old, the mid dle-aged alike need the potent, but benign influence of Ayers Sarsapa- rilla, the best of blood medicines.

DELAYED.

New York, March 12.-Within one day
of the eighth anniversary of the great
blizzard a storm prevailed here and
along the Atlantic coast from New Eng
land southwark yesterday, which is a
powerful reminder of that terrible Incl
dent in the history of New York. The
hurricane signal was displayed for the
second time this season. Snow fell i'll
great quantities, but melted almost as
fast as it came.
Snow fell all night in the interior of
the state. Dispatches received today re-
port from Is to 20 inches of snow at
Saratoga, Amsterdam Monticello and
other points and considerable Interrupt
tion to railway traffic III consequence.
In this city the storm subsidized before
midnight and today the weather is clear

Pittsburg, Pa, March 1.-THE worst
snow storm that has been experienced
in West Pennsylvania for years swept
over Pittsburg last night More snow
fell during the twenty-four hours ending
this morning than all the days of the
winter. The temperature dropped 20
degrees and another fall of 10 to 10 de-
grees is expected today. Despite the
heavy SNOW. trains on all lines were gen>

Chicago, H., March 12.-The Daily
Trade Bulletin has the following regard
ing the condition of the winter wheat
plant:
Information at this season of the year
is of little real value, owing to the
changeable weather. However, the re-
ports in the aggregate indicate that the
crop as a whole is in fairly good condl-
ton There is some complaint of dam
age in Southern Pennsylvania, Mary
land, Virginia, West Virginia, Southern
Ohio, Southern Indiana, Southeastern
Illinois and in some sections of Ken
lucky, Tennessee and Wisconsin, mainly
the result of the drouth in the fall COM
polling rather late sowing and extreme
changes of the weather during the win

many good reports. In New York,
Northern Ohio, Northern Indiana, Cen

dictate very good crop; in the South
west large increase over that Of last

CUBAN OFFICER ARRIVES.
Col. Perez of Maceo'S Staff is In
New York on a Secret
Mission.

New York, March 12-Col. FREDERICK
@. Perez. chief of staff of Gen. Maceo
of Cuba, is in this city on a secret mis-
sion. He will return to Cuba in a few
days. In an interview last night he
said: ''When / left Cuba, Gen. Gomez
and Gen. Maceo were very well satisfied
with the conditions existing and hoped
to be able to do something more de-
cisive in the near future. The rad
through the central provinces has brought
good results. The Cubans gained arms,
ammunition and men. Many Spanish
volunteers have taken the field with
them. In the eastern part OF the island
over 1000 Spanish regulars have de-
serted to the Cubans.
''Since | left the army there has been
a reorganization and some changes.
Maceo and Gomez were about to unite
their forces again. They now have an
army of about 25,000 men in the cen
trail provinces. The Cubans have
throughout the island about 10000
armed men and about 10000 partially
armed

Province of Pinar del Rio to the
Province of Havana without firing a
shot though the Spanish army marched
in the same region. ] was in the ten
years war and saw the Spanish fight

Gen. Baldissera's coming at the time
and therefore was not influenced by any
question of amour propre, but solely by
the difficulties ,of revictualling, which
would have compelled a retreat and have

that even a partial victory would put
an end to an untenable position, and
would cause the Shoans to withdraw.
The difficulties of the ground, he held
were the cause of the plans miscarrying.

nothing to reproach himself with, and
was ready to meet any charges, and to
endure to the end the consequences of
his misfortune.

ties will Get a Crucial
Test

Washington, D. c., March 12.-It is
not doubted at the navy department that
the battleship Indiana, which sailed day
before yesterday from Hampton Roads
for Port Royal, S. c., to be locked. ran
into the center of the hurricane which
swept along the Atlantic cost yesterday.
1t probably struck the ship off Hatteras.
No anxiety is felt for the safety Of the
big vessel, and in fact the navy authori-
ties. while they would not deliberately
send the ship out into such weather, are
rather pleased that she has had the op-
portunity to test her qualities.
