A LITTLE son of J. R. Jacobs, "a
prominent farmer of Jackson county,
had been cured of blood poisoning
by the famous Crabtree maidstone,
owned by Kilberry Crabtree, of
Beavertown, Pike county. The stone
has for several years been famous for
its marvellous cures of hydrophobia
and snake bite. 1t was originally
sent from Texas by Gordon Crabtree
to his father, Elijah Carbtree. Upon
the death of the father recently,
the stone was sold with the estate and
was bought by the present owner for
$405. This last cure has considera-
BILE significance, from the fact that it
is the first case known where blood
poisoning has been cured by mad
stone.

Rheumatism,

The busiest and most useful men
are not always exempt from sickness.
Especially are they liable to be at
tackled and completely disabled by that
most annoying and painful ailment--
Rheumatism. Men in all walks of life
are subject at any time to be seized
with this disease, and besides the great
bodily pain, there is almost unbearab1e
mental anguish at the thought of bav-
ing ones strength and vigor gradually
supp1anted by a condition of utter
he1p1essness. Under the effects of
Rheumatism, the strongest men be-
come the weakest, and the most useful
are robbed of their usefulness.
Mr.. J. A. LeSeur has lived in At
1anta, Ga, for years, and some of the
prettiest residences and most substan-
tia1 business blocks of that city are
monuments. to his skill as an architect
and builder.

Watterson on Protection.

Henry Watterson, the gifted editor
of the Louisville Courier Journal,
writing from Paris, says of the pros
pective effect of the Republicans to
receive high protective tariff:
"The Republican party has had in
its time great and good fortune. 1t
has shown itself clever opportunist.
But 1t cannot rest its case upon the
doctrine of protection. Neither as a
policy, nor as theory, nor as a key
note can protectionism hold its own
or stand alone. 1t is at war with the
genius Of American institutions. 1t
should be no longer necessary, if it
ever was truly necessary, to the
American manufacturer. 1t is the
father of paternalism and the god
father of Populism. 1t sets examples
to those who imagine that wealth
may be created by legislation. 1t
imposes grievous burdens on the
agricultural classes. During periods
of depression it serves both as an in
stigation and pretext to the discon-
tented elements. 1t is the occasion
of contest corruption in congress.
The manufacturers themselves ought
to lead the movement to discard it..
They could if they would have the
question settled by statesman and
save it from the hands of the mob.
On such line al conservative men
could unite to rescue the people from
anarchism. But with Mckinley in
the presidency this seems impossible,
and I confess I dread to think of the
attempt to which he Is committed, tc
bring back the Mckinley on tariff the
mere pretext to supply deficit which
is not likely to exist at the close o.
the fiscal year."

who were first to arrive on the scene. The
loss is fully covered by insurance.
The reel squads had very pretty race I'D

distance in quick time. All Of he squads
turned out, but as usual the interest centered
in the race between Monaghan and Delgar
Squads. Monaghan got out and off little
ahead of Delgar and this lead was kept until
the fire was reached. Wnen the fremen found
that their services were not needed they re-
turned to their reel houses, but they Gid not
