JOURNALISM CAUSES SUICIDE.
Buffalo Mans Mind Upset by Lurid
NewspaDer Article

newspaper ArtlcIe.
Sensational journalism has been the
cause of the suicide of Buffalo IN. W
man named Joseph Filler. For long
time Filler worried for fear that the
newspapers all over the country would
at some time print stories, accompanied
by his picture, which would be most dis
graceful. He did not know what he
would ever do to deserve this misfor-
tune, but he confidently expected it
would occur.
At leisure moments during the work.
ing day he would show to his fellow
employees copy of some newspaper
containing an extensive recital of some
bloodthirsty act profusely illustrated
with likenesses of the criminals and
prophesy that he would receive the
same treatment. He would make as
large collection of newspapers as he
could, clip stories which appealed to
his deficient faculty and hoard them as
a miser would hoard his gold.
FILLER, who had wife and three chill
dren, was employed by the Banner
Milling company, whose factory is on
the edge of the Buffalo river. At the
noon hour the worlmen sat on the
dock eating their dinner. Filler had
little or nothing to say. When he fin
ished his meal he put the cover on the
pail, stood up as straight as an arrow
and dived into the water. Not a sound
escaped him.
The group of men were dumb and
inanimate from the suddenness of the
act. Richard Shea, an elevator work
man, CHANGED to see the man struggling
in the water and bravely attempted to
rescue Filler. He ran TO a boat, pro-
cured ladder, and, tying rope to it,
threw it at the drowning man. The
contiguity of death did not swerve the
struggling man from his unnatural de-
sire, and without making an effort to
catch hold of the ladder he sank to the
bottom.

PARIS REEVES AN OLD CUSTOM.
Annual Parade of Beauty Mt Long,
champs.

Annual Parade of Beauty Mt Long
champs.
In these bright spring days Partisan
fashions are putting forth all their buds,
and one may see at the exhibitions OF
paintings the most delicate shades of
cloth, rivaling the colors on the canvas,
and at the races the spectator may get
foretaSte of the exquisite toilets which
the ladies wear at the Grand Prix. In
fact, the racing field at Longchamps is
a good place to observe Paris fashions.
Lots of pretty jaquettes are made this
year half-length, coming a few inches
below the arms, about halfway to the
waist. Empire green is the fashionable
color just now, but it will give place to
lighter shades after the coming Easter
week, when real warm weather is eX-
pected.
An effort is to be made to revive the
ancient parades of beauty to Long
champs, which are remotely akin to the
fashionable parades of Easter Sunday
on Fifth avenue, New York, for in

most faultless attire. But Paris must
be fin de steele, so, instead of enjoying
a parade on foot, the exquisites will go
in horseless carriages.
The idea originated with the Au-
tomobile club, and promises to be pic
turesque event and a strange revival of
an old custom. The parade to Long
champs in the fifteenth century was
pious pilgrimage, and the French wom-
en- on Good Friday used to walk out to
an abbey near Boulogne to hear tho
Tenebrae. 1t soon became a fashion
able fad rather than a pious custom,
and the ladies improved the opportunity
to display their best dresses. The
revolution came, and the abbey was
closed, but the parade of fine feathers
continued through all the reign of ter
TOR, empire, monarchy, republic and en-
pire again, when it died with the Ger
man war and the siege of Paris. Now
the Automobile people propose to revive

healthy man. Germs go through the
healthy body without effect. They are
hurried along rapidly and thrown off before
they have time to develop or increase. Let
them once find Judgment or let them find
weak spot, they will develop by the million
and the blood will be full of them. Instead
of rich, life-giving properties, the blood will
be sluggish, putrid tide of impurity. In
stead of giving strength to the tissues, It
will force upon them unwholesome and
innutritious matter, and the man will
lose flesh. The more flesh he loses and the
weaker he becomes, the more susceptible
he is to disease. His trouble will become
complicated and serious consequences will
follow. Dr.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the only medicine that absolutely
and infallibly cures all blood diseases, and
almost all diseases are blood diseases. It
isn't a medicine for some one particular
so-called disease. 1t is a medicine for the
zOkole body. It forces out all the germs of
disease, replaces impurities with rich, red
blood, feeds the tissues and makes strong,
healthy flesh.

PREs1DExf <McKINLsr's Cabinet
il indeed an interesting one when
viewed from certain standpoints. 1t
Is in no sense a product of the
people at large. The hearts of Its
members do not beat in unison and
love with those of the common
people. 1t is the embodiment and
representation of the privileged
classes" Corporations, trusts and
monopolies can safely look to it to
do their bidding.
The first and central figure of
this national family Is John Sher-
man, of Ohio, Secretary of State.
This gentleman is well known
throughout the United States. His
money views have brought him
prominently before the public. Not
because his views have brought
good results to the country, but on
the contrary, because of the meal
culable injury which they have en-
tailed upon the United States. He
stands at the head of that school
whose policy is the contraction of
the currency. Upon him rests the
responsibility of working the de-
struction of thepaper money, which
the people believed was so beneficial
to them. 1t is ne who is respon-
sible for that legislation which has
made gulf between our gold and
silver. Silver advocates do not feel
under any obligations to shake
hands with him on this point. The
national banking system finds in
him its truest friend, because he
belongs to that class who have
grown fat upon the system so de-
tested BY the people who under
stand it and who are not its bene-
ficiaries.
Taking these things into consid-
Grafton, Mr.. Sherman's selection to
the cabinet is very significant fact
to the common people.
Lyman ]. Gage, of Illinois, Sec
rotary of the Treasury, stands pat
with Mr.. Sherman on the money
question. He is one of those i'm
possible bi-metalists who wants the
unanimous consent of Europe be-
fore we can assert our financial in
dependence.
Russell A. Alger, of Michigan.
Secretary of War, is a millionaire,
and his views tally with Sherman's,
who, by the way, is also a mil
lionaire.
Next comes James A. Gary, Of
Maryland, the Postmaster General,
millionaire.
John d. Long, of Massachusetts,,
follows in logical order as the Sec
rotary of the Navy. He is an at
torney for trusts and corporations.
Joseph McKenna, of California,
found his way into the Attorney
Generals Office. He is known here
in the West as a corporation lawyer
and judge.
Thus we see that the character or
makeup of the Mckinley Cabinet
is a most decided one. Had the
corporations, trusts and monopolies
chosen their own men they could
not have chosen men who would
nave subserved their interests

Ignorance About Birds.

Mrs. Olive Thorne Miller in one of her
instructive series of bird talks" deliv-
cred at the Cambridge Gafassl high
school. dwelt upon the ignorance which
prevails among farmers in regard to their
resulting oftentimes in the determination
OF valuable species as mistaken enemies
In illustration she cited two instances
one being the placing of a bounty on
biackbirds because of their supposed
depredations on grain fields. leading to
their Wholesale destruction. The follow
ing year these "protected'' grain fields
suffered from hosts of voracinus insects
and the stupid law was hastily repealed.
But in one state so active had been the
bounty seekers casually the shiftless peo-
pie of community that Il was found
necessary to import eggs for the rearing
of the birds. whose value had been
learned through costly experience. An
other friend of the agrculturist is the
baltimore oriole, whose rich song Is one
OF natures marveis. Yet. because Il an
prec.d;es little grape juice now and
then, n war of determination has been
Wag'd upon ii in some quarters, and
thsn. notably in France. the vines have
been destroyed by the canker worm and
caterpillar. of which the oriole is the
mreless foe. II would be a good plan TO
inquire beforehand into the habits of any
bird Tor which the murderous bounty is
proposed, and the chances are good that
such knowledge of its services will be
obtained that the movement for q premi-
UNI on its slaughter will be abandoned
