MIR. L

Representative Fus. Schrink, of the Fourth
district, will introduce an important bill in
the House as soon as the committees are
named. The bill is to l~eagalizo primary
elections and to nominate state and county
officers by a direct vote Of the people.
The measure provides Iegalized primary
elections and to nominate Candidates for
various Offices on the third Tuesday Of August
between the hours of ? aub T.. These
primary elections are to- be called
nominating elections and every caudi-
date must file a certificate with the
Secretary Of the Commonwealth or the
County Commissioners announcing his in
tention of becoming a candidate. IN the one
case it must bo filed thirty days before the
primaries and on the other twenty days be-
fore the primaries. The County Commits
sioners are authorized to print the ballots
and to group the names Of candidates for
each office under seperate headings.
The candidates are required to pay the ex-
peuses for printing, etc. The names Of Demo
cratic candidates are to be voted for at the
same time, but not upon the same ballot as
the Republicans. All the details are very
much on the order of the present ballot now
as applied to general elections. National
delegates End Congressman are elected in the
same way, thus breaking up the couferee
system. Severe fines and punishments are
prescribed for violations of the act. The az
sossments to be paid by candidates to delray
expenses of the nominating elections are de-
fined in the bill as follows:
Presidential electors, S25; Governor, $1,000
Northumberland State Treasurer and
Secretary Of Internal Affairs, $500 each
Auditor General, $500 Judges Of Superior
and Supreme Courts, $1,000 each. The as
sessment of candidates for county offices
varies according to tho population Of the
counties in which they reside. For Phila-
delphis the assessment is fixed at s per cent
of the salary of the official for one year. TIT
provisions Of the bin governing the primary
election for municipal offices have not yet
been completed.

PRlTCHARD REELECTED.
Senator Buffers Defeat in the North
Carolina Contest.

RALEIGH, n. c., Jan. 2I.-Senator Jeter
O.. Pritchard was yesterday elected TO sue
coed himself in the United States senate
by the legislature assembled in joint ses-
sion. MIR. PritchArd received SO votes;
Thompson (Pop.) J., 43; Doughton Dem. ,33.
There was six members not voting. Eight
cen Populists voted for Pritchard, and one
Democrat voted for Thompson.
After the result had been declared Mr..
Pritchard entered the chamber, accom-
panied by Governor Russell and Congress
man skinner. All three made speeches,
Pritchard saying that he TODD on the sill
yer question where he stood two years ago.
Mr.. Skinner said his course had been
taken for tho good Of the Popullst party,
and he did not see how any harm could
come to It in e~lecting a man who was
pledged to free silver.
Senator Butler was In the Populist eau
Gus last night, which met for the purpose
Of mapping out legislation. 1t is Thought
by some that the bitter feelings aroused
during the contest will result in the ces-
sat ion of further cooperation, both dur
ing the session of the legislature and af-
terwnrd, between the regular Populists
and the supporters Of Pritchard. Itlooks
as If entirely new lines may be drawn as
one of the results of Butler's defeat.

No district I'm America presents, during the
Winter season, so many varied attractions as
the State of Florida. Besides its delightful.
climate, which to one escaping from the cold
and unhealthtul changes Of the North seems
almost ethereal, it is pre-eminently a land Of
sport and pleasure, Along its eleven hundred
miles of saltwater coast and in its twelve
hundred fresh-water lakes are fish of almost
every conceivable variety, from the migrd
tory tribes common to Northern waters to the
tarpou, pompano, and others Of q NOR,
tropical character. Nowhere i'm all our broad
land can the angler find a greater variety Of
game or better sport.
Here also the most enthusiastic hunter
finds safety. Deer, turkeys, bears, panthers.
and wild cats roam at large through the more
sparscly settled regions, while birds of all
kinds may be found in abundance through
out the State. The moro novel sport of al
ligatOr and manatee hunting may also be in
dulged in by the more adventurous tourist
With its matChless climate, its orange
groves, its rivers and lakes, its boating ano
bathing, its fishing and hunting, aud il
extensive forests, Florida presents unrivale,
attractions for the valetudinariau, the lover
of nature, the sportsman and the explorer.
70 this attractive state the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company has arranged four per
sonally-conducted tours during the season Of
1897. leaving by special train January 90,
February . and %, and March 8. The first
three tours will admit of 4 ]sojourn of two

week ago with four feet of water in the
hold, sailed yesterday on her way TO Rio
Grsnde du Sol with a crew Of four mutt
neers and five 'longshoremen, commanded
by a new captain and mate. The mutt
neors plainly threatened tho captain with
violence IL he persisted in leaving the port
under the circumstances.
The trouble arose from the alleged condi-
ton Of the ship, which is deeply laden with
u general cargo. The men who brought
her here, four negro sailors from the Wost
Indies, say she is not soaworthy, and thoy
demanded q honring before the British
consul Her captain, Cronin, and nate

statements to local boatman who went

mon, and Edwards ordered the negroes to
hoist anchor and make ready TO sail. They
refused to move, reiterating their demand
that they be put ashore with their dun
mage. The captain declinel to do so, and
ordered the longshoremen to proceed with
the work. They raised the anchor, the
tug took the brig in tow and proceeded
out to sea, the mutineers meanwhile sit
ting on their bags near the f~orecastle.

One thing is certain It will not do to
fool with a bad cold. No one can tell what
tho end will bo. Pneumonia, catarrh, chronic
bronchitis, if not consumption, invariably
result from a neglected cold, 1t is surprising
too, that bad colds arc so often neglected
when one remembers how easily and at what
little expense they may be cured. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is always prompt
and enectual, and costs but trias; 25 N 80
cents is a trihe as compared with the disas-
trous effects Of a neglected cold. Mr.. Abner
