The Times must think that its read

declares in SO many words that that

admitted has been done.

scarcely conceivable rot it is to assert

For, with the Government, taking
all silver freely iuto it's mints and

Hanna good service, they can dispel

We believe that the Democracy of
Ohio will bury Mr.. Hanna and his

near. We believe that thou4ancs of
Intelligent Populists will vote the
Democratic ticket. But there il now a
fighting chance for the goldhugs. A
week ago they were beaten as surely
as the coming Of election dav. That
they have this fighting chance is due
solely to the Incredible folly Of the
men who met at Columbus Yesterday
and delivered themselves into the

Democrats and Populists. 1t is very
fitting that the nominee of such a
convention should be General Jacob

IN THE Navy Dept.
Disbursing Officer Glad to Recon-
mend Paine's Celery Compound.

No department at Washington just
now so absorbs the attention Of the peo-
pie as the splendidly- growing, formd
able navy. 1t is not to the gold-laced
Annapolis graduates that the brunt of
the responsible work fails, but TO the
able Department officials. of whom Dis
bursting officer f. II. Stickney is one.
A letter from him says:
Having taken Paine's celery com

Spring is the decisive time in the life of
every person out of health. II is an as
sured fact that stubborn disorders pc
come quickly durable in the spring.
This is especially true of such persis-
tent troubles as rheumatism. neuralgia
and obstinate kidney diseases.
No one, sick or well. can afford to

any other time.

to conccct so-called spring remedies.
In sharp contrast with these risky
preparations is the one valuable spring
remedy worthy the name in the estima-
ton of competent persons and medical
authorities. Paine's celery compound.
This widely praised and widely priced
remedy really does make people we'll.
1t is as far removed, in the minds of

Salmon Falls, n. H.. April 30.-What
appears to be a dastardly attempt at
murder. after robbery had been COM

Maine Railroad brought to the station

whom they had picked up in an un-
conscious condition by the side of the
track 1T a point about half way be-
tween here and Rollingsford junction,
the next station on the main line of the
Western division.
The man was severely injured about
the head and seemed To be in a dan
gerous condition. A physician was
called, under whose treatment he re-
vived sufficiently to tell a story to the
effect that he had been attacked by
robbers, relieved of his money and then
had narrowly escaped death from being
thrown under a passing train.
His story is TO the effect that while
walking on the track at a few minutes
past midnight. returning to Dover, after
having spent the evening with friends
there. he was accosted by two men VINO
demanded his money. Upon his refusal
to give it up they seized him and went
through his pockets. taking 500. Just at
that time. train was heard approach
ing.
Hearing this. the men held on to Duff
ford and Just as the engine reached the
spot they gave him a fling towards il.
His head came in contact with the
cylinder and he was thrown to the track,
his head was badly hurt. but he fell far
enough from the rail to avoid further in
jury.
The train was stopped and the train
hands picked him up and he was brought
here on train No. 6l3 from Boston to
Portland. The train hands state that
they saw two men running away from
the scene Just before the engine struck
Dufford but could tell nothing of the as
sault or robbery The injured man re-
covered rapidly and was able to leave
for his home this morning.

DOUBLE MURDER
And Suicide at Bonny Eagle,
In the Town of Standish.
John W. Lane Shoots Wife and Child
and Follows Deed by Suicide.
No Cause Known Had Good Income and
Apparently Lived Happily.

West Buxton, April 30.-News was re-
ceived here, this morning, of double
murder and suicide at Bonny Eagle. a
small village two miles from here. The
bodies of John w. Lane. a resident of
the village, his wife and infant child
were found in bed at their home, j
bullet from revolver having ended the
lives of each. A letter written by Lane,
which was found in the room, stated
that he had decided to kill his wife and
infant child, but did not state the
reason.
From q hasty examination it was
found that one bullet took each life.
Lane appeared as usual, all day yester-
day, and none of the neighbors can cx-
plain the crime. He talked and
laughed with friends as usual. and it is
believed that the impulse to kill his
wife ana child came upon him sud
denly.
