EUROPEAN EUCHRE.

The history of the Franco Prussian
war shows upon what slight matters the
fate of nations in these days depends.
Given a generally strained relationship
between the, larger powers, the most in
significant event may become the cause
of war and may upset elaborate plans for
peace that have been formed with great
pains. In 1870 the candidature of a
member of the Hohenzollern family for
the Spanish crown was the obstensible
cause of irritation between Germany and
France, but the wisdom of the king of
Prussia virtually interposed to prevent an
outbreak of hostilities, when by some ac-
cident, not yet satisfactorily understood,
the war party at Paris in a few hours
changed the French emperors policy of
peace to a hostile attitude that was i'm
mediately followed by a terrible, devas-
tating war that cost France two of her
richest frontier provinces. Just at pre-
sent Europe is in ! state of agitation
over the possibility of a repetition of the
war of 1870 on a more elaborate and dis
astrous scale. So conflicting are the re-
ports of the present hour in regard to the
PROJECTS for peace or war that prophecy
is dangerous pastime. 1t is evident
that a great game of politics is being
played out around the European card
table. The hands are held by France,
Germany, Russia and England, and the
stake is great one. On the next play
may depend the peace of millions of men.
Clubs are trumps. Washington Star.

A RENOWNED cHEMIsT,
Analysed Popular Family Medicine and
Tells Its Secrets

Prof. w. ii. Morse of Westfield, New.
Jersey made an examination of the COM
position and medicinal value of the well
known catarrh remedy, Pe-ru-na. He
says of Pe-ru-na that this remedy "has
commended itself to medical men and
their patients as specific for the grippe
and its sequela. 1t fully approves itself
for this purpose, and is remedial for all
bronchial troubles. Its action is both To-
cal and constitutional. and it is entirely
harmless. The distinction accorded to it
belongs to no other remedy of which we,
know"
Catarrh of head, nose, ears and throat,
bronchial tubes, lungs, stomach. liver, kid
neys, bladder and other pelvic organs
can be cured by II course of Pe-ru-na.
Or. Hartman has used this catarh rene
dy for nearly 40 years with great success.

MARRIED MEMORIES

London, Jan. 19-The Berlin cores
pondent of the Times, in the course of n
long special article recalling the splendid
enthusiasm of the victory of 1871, says:
Can it be said that the heart of the
German nation responded yesterday with
the same enthusiasm, or that in many
minds the splendid memories of the past
were not to some extent dimmed and
married by disappointing expectations and
uneasy apprehensions?
The death of two emperors has made
room for a sovereign of a strangely diff
ferent type, of whom all said that in this
year of his age and the eighth of his
reign, his chief characteristic is his
youth.
The correspondent then proceeds to re-
fer to the absence of Prince Bismarck.
the king of Saxony, the grand duke OF
Baden and General Blumenthal from the
fetes, and reviewing the internal troubles
and menacing outlook abroad he says:
Few Germans can look forward with
out apprehension to the great conflict
upon which it is universally felt the
destiny of this young emperor still hangs.

THE BONDS.

If the consideration of patriotism is tc
be regarded in connection with govern
ment loan, the bonds should be placed
at their face value, where the people can
get at them, instead of being auctioned
off like merchandise in an ordinary mer
cenary transaction. The people pay the
taxes and it would be no great injustice
to allow them to enjoy the small premium
on the market with careful estimate OF
their market value regardless Of the
speculative profits or losses incidental tc
commercial fluctuations. Washington

HURRARD'S COTTON I,ETTER

HUBBARD'S COTTON LETTER.
New York. Jan. 21.-Hubabrd Bros.
4 Co.'s cotton letter says:
The strength of our market is due to
buying by exporters as the offerings of a
line of cotton supposed to represent the
holdings of cotton bought in the early
spring enabled them to export this cotton
if not without a profit, at least upon n
better basis than for some time past. AS
soon as this was discovered the local
interest, which has been looking for
lower prices, FASTENED to cover it's pre-
vious Sales, with the result of sub
stantial improvement during the coming
session. Our market closed steady at II
slight recession from the best prices of
the day, but with a steadier undertone
than of late, due to the comparatively
light movement at the interior towns.

LIVE STOCK.
CHICAGO.

Chicago, Jan. 21.-There was fair
Tuesday market, the general demand
being moderate, while the light supply
prevented any decline in prices for ma
tives. Choice beeves were scarcer than
ever. consisting mostly of common to
medium natives and fed Texans. EX-
port steers sold at $3.50 and a good many
dressed beef cattle are going at $3.50
3.95. There was a good demand for
butchers and Gamers cattle at ruling
prices. few cows selling below S1.9O or
higher than 1925 Calves were in fair
supply and sold very well at S3.OOM6OO;
Texas fed cattle were better in quality
and sold very well, but were 1Oc lower
today.
Hogs-The receipts were again light
and the supply was far from being sui.
ficient to meet the requirements of local
packers and shippers, all the desirable
droves being closed out early in the day
at the advanced prices. Common to
prime grades found purchasers at $3.50
M4.20; the bulk of sales being at $4.1O.
The difference between prices now and
those of year ago has narrowed to Doc.
Sheep-The light supply served to
cause stronger feeling and prices ruled
10c higher for nice medium weights,
sales being made of common to choice
native sheep at $2.50M3.90; westerns,
49, 10@3.75.
