DEATH OF JOHN c. REID.

New York, Jan. 25.-John c. Reid, who for several years past had been in charge of the republican headquar- ters in the Fifth Avenue hotel in this city, died at his house, No. East Thirtieth street, at 9:35 o'clock this morning, of heart trouble after sick ness of few days.
 MT. Reid was born in Kenosha, Wis, about fifty-nine years ago and was q printer by trade. He worked on sev- eral newspapers in the west up to the time the war broke out, when he went to the front in an Ohio regiment, was made a prisoner and taken to Libby Prison, where he remained until ex- changed. After the war he went to Chicago and worked on the Times there until about 1870, when he came to New York and took position in the proof room of the New York Times. Tn 1872 he became night editor, and year later, when G. F. Williams left, was made managing editor position which he held until 1889. He then went abroad as editor of the London edition of the New York Herald. When the edition was given up MT. Reid came back \ to America and took charge of the New Haven Palladium. Then for short periods he worked on the World and Recorder in this city, afterwards taking the position which he held at the time of his death.
 MT. Reid was an ardent partisan and his advice was frequently sought by campaign committees. In 1876 he in- sisted, through the Times, that Hayes was elected, when the other New York morning papers held to the contrary. and few years ago wrote long ar ticle showing his part in the work of establishing the electoral commission which gave the presidency to R. B. Hayes. He leaves a widow

A healthy baby Is the real jewel for which the wedding ring is only the setting. There is no place in Natures economy for a childless marriage. Welded couples that are childless are never truly married. A baby is the tie that binds The baby is the pledge that makes husband and wife one in nature and in fact, and that teaches mutual self-sacrifce and sympathy. Thousands of couples are childless because of the wife's neglect of her health as woman. Too few women fully appreciate the importance of keeping healthy and vigorous the organs upon which motherhood is dependent. As consequence, they are weak where they should be strong, and motherhood is either an impossibility or torturesome and davN gerous ordeal This is easily remedied
 The most wonderful medicine for women is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts directly and only on those delicate or- gans upon which the perpetuation of the race depends. It allays inflammation, soothes pain and makes those organs healthy and vigorous. It prepares for motherhood. It makes the expectant period comfortable. It makes baby's coming easy and almost painless and insures health In both mother and child Druggists sell it.
 "I take pleasure in expressing my faith in Gain, of Clinton, Allegheny co., Pa After two years of suffering I began taking Dr. Picrce's medicine and now am entirely cured. had been troubled with displacement of internal weakness. but now am well and happy will chesrfully recommend Dr. Pierces Favorite Pre- scription to all invalid ladies'"
 The profit side of life is health. The bal ance is written in the rich red, pure blood of health. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation and make the blood rich and pure. They never gripe. By druggists.

YALE-HARvARD NEGOTIATIONS.

NA@Ais V <AilD IN NhIIoIIAIlDNS >,
 The secret and devious negotiations or Yale and Harvard appear now to nave taken fresh shape According to a report, which is semi-official in character and seems trustworthy, Cap- tain Goodrich of the Harvard crew has recently secured the consent of Cornell to allow Yale to enter the triangular race, though, so far as known, no off, cial communication from Cornell has yet been received by Yale.
 The whole question, therefore, turns apparently on Yale's acceptance of these terms and a modification for one year at least of her old policy of not meeting Cornell on the water Such 8 modification would probably require a university meeting of undergraduates to ratify it. and the general result of the negotiations is still very doubtful, with the immediate prospect outward ly unfavorable to their success.
 At Yale the matter is, essentially, in the hands of the undergraduates, while at Harvard the athletic committee has control.
