One advantage of taking Ayers Sar-
saparilla to purify the blood is that you
need not infringe upon your hours of
labor nor deny yourself any food that
agrees with you. In a word, you are
not compelled to starve or loaf, while
taking it. These are recommendations
worth considering.

THE HYPNOTIST,

Cunning, the hypnotist. who has been
at the Tabor the past week, has at
tracted considerable attention and the
audiences increased nightly. In fact
business was so good that Manager
McCrout has booked the combination
return date one week commencing June
%. One of the experiments performed
by Cunning was certainly little less
than wonderful. At the conclusion of
the performance Wednesday night
Cunning hypnotized a young man
named Ralph Barr, announcing that he
would keep the subject in a hypnotic
sleep for three days and nights and
would awaken him at the performance
Saturday night. This he did.
A committee of medical students who
watched Bars condition during the
entire three days and nights have made
afidavits that the subject was asleep
throughout the entire period and at no
time had food or water.
Cunning announces that upon the
occasion of his next visit here he will
put a subject under hypnotic influence
for one week.-New York Dramatic

Maine Loyal to Reed.

BANGOR, Me-, June 3.-The Republican state convention for the nomination of a candidate for governor assembled In the city hall. The great auditorium was com pletely filled with the delegates and spec tators, and in every respect 1t was one of the most enthusiastic gatherings of Re publicans in this state since the Blaine campaign.
 Hon. J. H. Manley, chairman of the state committee, called the convention to order, and after the reading of the oall and invocation by Rev. Dr. Field of Ban gor MT. Manley introduced as temporary chairman Harold M. Sewall of Bath.
 Mir. Sewall was received with hearty applause, and he addressed the convention.
 When the routine business had been concluded and Governor Cleayes had ad dressed the convention upon state and na- tional issues, Judge Savage of Auburn presented the name of Hon. Llewellyn Powers of Boulton as a candidate for gov ernor in vigorous and eloquent speech and moved that the nominatinn be made by exclamation.
 Before the motion was put the nomina- tion was seconded by Colonel Fred N. Dow of Portland and by Bertram l.. Smith of Patten. The nomination was then made by exclamation, and great en- thusasm was manifested.
 In national affairs the resolutions advo- cate the restoration of the policy of protec- ton taught by Lincoln, illustrated by the signal prosperity of the country for 30 years and rounded out by the reciprocity of Blaine, policy adapted to the busi- ness of the country and adjusted from time to time to changed conditions

KATE FIELD.

ries in Massachusetts. Her father con- tributed humorous sketches to his brother Matthew's paper. the New Orleans Pioa- yune, and Kate wrote her first article for the paper when she was years old. She was fond of music and the stage and want ed to become an opera singer. She was taken to Italy by an English lady when she was a little girl Walter Savage Lan- dor took a fancy to her, gave her lessons in Latin and bequeathed her an album of ancient drawings. She wrote reminis- cencss of Landor for Atlantic Monthly.
 In 1874 Miss Field made her debut as an actress at Booths theater In Peg Wellington. She had an attack of stage fright, from which she did not recover un- til the last act. While on another visit to England she brought out one act com edy entitled Extremes Meet which ran three months. She contributed an article on the telephone to The Times and sang through the then novel invention to Queen Victoria. From l ss2 to 1883 she was the head of woman's cooperative dress association in New York which turned out a failure.
 Miss Field published in Washington for several years that bright periodical known as Kate Fields Washington, and 1t was upon the suspension of this publication a few months ago that she left the United States in search of health in the south sea isles, where she met her death.

Tree Climbing Rabbits-

The London Field has an item that is likely to call out a discussion among English correspondents of that paper A man writes that "when shooting with a friend in Banffshire last December my friend called out, There's rabbit up a treeP' Sure enough one was there at least ten feet from the ground The tree was an upright fir. and the man had seen the rabbit run up the smooth bark as easily as squirrel The rabbit stop ped on the first branch to look down.
 What is more, there is a lot of blown timber in the wood. and sup pose the rabbits have got accustomed to climbing on it, for I have often seen them jump on to q root and run up the slanting trunk till they were sometimes 15 feet from the ground, which must have been dizzy height for an animal of such ground habits
 Corroborative letters will probably come in, and rabbits will have an es- tablished reputation as climbers It is said that in Australia the imported rab- bits have. begun to develop hooked claws, with the aid of which they are able to climb the rabbit proof fences
 A large number of animals with hab- its acquired because of environment have been noted from time to time foxes that climb trees, rats that are beasts of prey, birds that build nests adapted to certain conditions, and so on indefinitely.

Too Much For the General.

When the news of General Leonidas Folks death was received by General Grant, that general said, "Then the most perfect gentleman I ever met Is gone" Gentle as woman in his manner, 1t seemed an unspeakable offense to utter an oath or a coarse expression in bis presence. His men never forgot this, and the gener- al's dismay may be we'll imagined when one day he came across two privates hav- ing a. little scrapping match beside the road. One of the combatants, being still sober enough to recognize the officer, fell back, but the other turned and stared in solently at the handsome old man on his horse. Sergeant, sergeant, come and put this man in irons," called the general. And the fellow shouted: "Who in h--l are you, old mule ear? Git off that horse, and I'll lick you for 10 cent postage stampH It was too much. General Polk turned and ed.-Philadelphia Times.

ST. LOUIS TORNADO.
Nearly Six Hundred Lives Lost and Vast
 Amount of Property Destroyed.

Nearly Six Hundred Lives Lost and Vast s Amount of Property Destroyed. ST. LOUIS. June 2.-It Is known that the mum Der of persons who were killed in the terrible tornado which passed over this city and vicinity will reach nearly 500. The following are the figures given: St. Louis-Killed, 200; injured, 800 East St. Louis-Killed, $50; injured, 300.
 Near Centralia, Ills.-Killed, 42; in- jured. 35. Breckinridge, Ills.-Killed. 9
 Near Mount Vernon, Illa-Killed. 5; injured, 20. Near Mexico. Mo.-Killed, IS; iniur- ed, B..
 Near vandalia, IllA-Killed. IS; injur- ed. 35.
 The financial loss by the storm of Wednesday night is variously estimated at a Il the way from s6. 900, 900 to $50. 00O, 900. That the former figure is too small is certain and the latter is not much too high.
 The telegraph companies also come In for their share of the loss. Not a wire was left standing in St. Louis. The streets in the district most affected are mass of broken poles and tangled wires. The loss to the telegraph companies is estimated at $1O0 900.
 Tower Grove park represents an annual expenditure of $50, 900 for nearly go years, and contained many gifts of valuable bronzes and marbles. Shaw's garden con- tained nearly s1, 900, 900 worth of botanic al specimens. The extent of the loss in these parks is not definitely known, but 1t is said to be enormous.
 The wind seemed to take the form of a tornado rather than that of cyclone, the wrecked buildings showing none of the twisted irons and girders which usually mark the track of @ rotary windstorm. The general trend was from southwest to northeast.

Reed Won't Have Second Place.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Congressman Aldrich of Chicago. MT. Reeds recognized manager in congress, makes the following declaration:
 Without entering into the question as to whether the vice president is or Is not to be considered a promotion for a man holding the position of speaker of the house of represen lives, I can say with authority that Mr. Reed Is a candidate for the nomination for the presidency, and for that alone.
 "He will cheerfully abide by the de oision of the convention as regards that candidacy, but under no circumstances will he accept the nomination for the vice presidency. He does not want it and will not have 1t. His reasons are his own, and of them 1 cannot speak, but if 1t becomes necessary after the convention meets such measures will be taken as will preclude the consideration of Mr Reed name in connection with the vice presidency. He will give the nominees cordial support, as he always has done. Beyond that be will insist on exercising his prerogative of de- clining nomination he has not sought and does not desire.'

Grants Dominant Characteristic.

If were asked to express in one word the most dominant characteristic of Gen eral Grant, I should say loyalty" He was loyal to his country, loyal to his cause, loyal to his family, loyal to his friends. This trait was in him so we'll developed that he could not understand the lack of 1t in others. There were two classes of men for whom he had the most supreme con- tempt, and those were liars and towards. Magnanimity was almost as strong fea- sure in the character of General Grant as .oyalty, and this was shown in many lit .le things. Thus after the surrender at rort Donelson be had called General Buck ner aside and said to him, General, I do not know in what condition the fortunes 1f war have left you; but, handing his pocketbook to his late adversary, 1T hope ,ou will accept this. ."-General Horace DDrtQr
