Speaker Reed on Critics.

What fine aerial creature is the man
who shingles into the fog! Him no attrac-
ton of gravitation pulls to earth and if it
did he would only fall on roses. Never
theless it may be that those who contine
themselves to actual roofs shelter more
human beings from the heat of the sun,
the fall of the snow and the drippings Of
the clouds, than those who do nothing and
say much. While, however, we may prop
erly protest against wholesale belief in
the harvesting powers of those who return
bringing no sheaves with them, it would
be unwisdom not to admit their very great
usefulness. A horse kicking across the
team, to put the question in its worst form,
may not pull pound, but he may excite
the other horses to pull the team out of
the slough, even if they refuse to do it any
way but their own To put it, however,
more fairly, while ideals are seldom reach
ed, idols a~e a part of the forces of the
world and work as all the Others forces do
to make the world better and more in
habitable In other words, discomfort
and complaint do really fill great part in
the history of progress, and even the
vaguest unrest has its uses. Hon. Thomas
B. Reed in The Illustrated American.

Capt. o. F. Hughes, the popular rail-
road man of Columbia, S. c., says:
"At first paid very little attention to
the little pains, but they became so
much sharper and more frequent that
before long was almost disabled. The
disease attacked my muscles, which
would swell to many times their natural
size, and give me the most intense pain.
81 was ready to doubt that Rheutna-
tis1n could be cured, when I was advised
to try S. S. S. This remedy seemed to
get right at the cause of the disease, and
soon cured me completely. / believe
that S. S. S. is the only cure for Rheu-
1natism, for I have had no return of the
N1sease for eight years"
i The mcrcurial and potash remedies,
(which the doctors always prescribe for
Rheumatism, only aggravate the trouble,
and cause stiffness in the Joints and
aching of the bones which add so much to
the distress cfthe disease, besides serious
ly affecting the digestive organs. S.S.S.

Rheumatism because it is absolutely free

MALARIAL PARASITES.
Fatal infectious Disease in Indin and

The tsetse fly disease of Africa has re-
Gently been shown by the researches of
Bruce to be due to a flagellate infu-
Sorium which is found in the blood of
infected animals, says the Popular Sci
ence Monthly. This disease is fatal to
the OK, the horse, the dog, the sheep
and the ass, but not to the indigenous.

The tsetse fly. The researches of Bruce
indicate that the fly acts as carrier of
the parasite from diseased to healthy
animals. lie has shown by experiment
that after feeding on the blood of an
infected animal the tsetse fly can com
utunicate the disease to n healthy ami
nal by its bite. After q short period of
&, incubation the haematoza appear in the
blood concurrently with the develop
ment Of fever and followed by rapidly
progressive inaemia, drorsy and death.
The so-called "surra disease" which
prevails in certain portions of India, is
believed to be due to similar parasitic
protozoan (trypanosma evansi). Ac-
cording to Lipgard this infusorium ex-
lists as an innocuous parasite in the,
blood Of rats in India. 1t is not catho-'
genie, or only feebly 30, for the native
OK of India, but gives rise to fatal in
fictitious disease in horses, dogs and
camels. ....

Young MANS Tender Remark to Hts
True Love. 80

True Love.
1t doesn't always pay to express your
Utmost thought even gnardedly in the
presence Of deaf mutes, says the Boston
Record. Astory was told at the meeting
of the Woman Suffrage association the
other afternoon which showed conclu-
sively the wisdom of the abo We remark.
A devoted couple who, apparently,
had been long separated were thrust
suddenly into each others company at
a 1argely-attended reception. The Indy
who told the story said that she was
present in company with an educated
deaf girl. The happy reunited pair dis.
played fully the thoughts that were in
their hearts by the beam upon their
countenances. Suddenly the young man
drew near to the one whom he aGloreds
and said, in low tone, inaudible to
those about him, q few seemingly af-
fcctionatc words.
Thu Gcaf girl watched the proceedings
with intense interest and suddenly
broke into broad grin. Her companion
inquired what it was that amused her.
She turned about SO that the couple
could not'see her and replied:
THAT man said: If all these people
were not here I'd kiss you. If they don't
get out of the way pretty soon 1 shall
have to before them The girl replied:
Then ] shall scream"
The deaf girl understood their words
by the motion of their lips. .

SCIENCE AND PREsENrlMEN7s.

Phenomenon Usually Susceptible OF
n Telepnthic Explanation.
Nine times In the course of my own
life have had what is called q "pre-
sentiment" Eight times I wrote it
down atonce, before learning whether it
was true or false, and the ninth time
I spoke of it. says Appleton's Science
Monthly. Three of these were false, one
partly true and partly false, one was
not verified, but probably false. All
these relate to subjects in my thoughts
and were probably suggested by circum-
stances. Four were true. of which one
lnight have been suggested by c;rcuIn-
stances. The other three were not only
true and not apparently suggested by
circumstances but were among the most
agitating experiences of my life. One
drove me in spite of the resistance of
my reason to take q journey which
seemed the act of q lunatic and proved
the wisest thing Icould do. Another
impelled me to write letter to per-
son $50 miles away, to whom I had
written a few hours before, but who,
happened to be in great trouble at the
moment felt the impulse. The third
gave me absolute assurance that the
very thing was about to happen which
believed to be of oil things most i'm
possible. do not, of course, quote
these few experiences as proving the
existence of telepathy, but merely rs
illustrating what mean by apparent
ly telepathic phenomena" '..' q"
The vast majority of apparently SUI
pernor1nal phenomena are susceptible
of a telepathic explanation, but in q
few cases one is driven to other concep-.
tiOns. Sometimes knowledge is shown
of events not known 10 anyone, and ut
other times q percipient will seem to
"see" things at q distance, or to become
aware of events remote in time. =

HoMEwARD BOUND
Further Reduction in Rates Is Not
Unlikely

CHICAGO, July 10.-There is bound to
be some trouble over the east-bound
business of the Christian Endeavor con-
vention. When the rates and arrange
ments were made for the convention the
northern transcontinental roads made
no effort to secure any of the west-bouni
business, and the reduced rates to the
Pacific coats were not made available
via St. Paul and Minneapolis.
1t was clearly understood, however,
that the northern roads were out for all
the eastbound business that 1t would be
possible for them to secure and to re-
ward them for letting the west-bound
business alone, the other transcontinen-
tai roads agreed that no stop-overs
should be allowed on eastbound traffic
coming via Colorado and Utah. It was
announced today, however, that the Col
orado Midland, the Rio Grande Western
and THE Denver and Rio Grande had
sold large number of tickets which al
lowed stop-overs at nearly all of the
interesting places in Colorado and Utah
The effect of this will be to divert ths
travel from the nortehrn roads, and il
is half expecetd that they will meet the
violation Of the agreement by reducing
the east-bound rates from the conven-
tion. Chairman CALDWELL Of the. West
ern Passenger association, has called a
meeting for Monday to consider the mat
| ter.

WARD HELD TO ANSWER
AND PUTS UP BAIL FOR HIS
APPEARANCE
Closing Of Courts for Summer vaca-
tion Will Delay Trial for at
Least Three Months

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1o-The pro-
ceedings In the Ward case, before Judge
Low today were brief, but they were
full Of interest to w. Russell Ward, who
ran away with Mrs John Bradbury of
Los Angeles and landed her in Jail.
1.-THE case Is submitted" said Garrett
McEnerney, who represents Ward.
1.-THE defendant Is held to answer as
charged in the complaint, with bail fixed
at $2000,' said the court.
I'VE have $1,000 on deposit; there's an
other Thousand" said McEnerney, and
he threw on the clerks desk a pile of
backs
During the transaction Ward had re-
mained in his chair, looking like man
in a dream. Just behind him stood the
court bailiff, whose prisoner Ward be-
came from the moment the court pro-
nounced judgment until bail was ac-
cepted.
McEnerney stated that he would not
institute habeas corpus proceedings at
once. He Is now mapping out his plan
Of campaign, and early in the week may
decide what to do. Wards case will not
come up for trial In the superior court,
in any event, for about three months.
In the first place, the police court testi-
mony must be written out and the in
formation filed with the district attor-
ney. This may be done within week or
two or it may take a month. Then ths
case must come up within sixty days
from the date on which the information
is filed. AS the courts will soon close for
the summer vacation, the Ward case
will doubtless go over until after vaca-
ton.

A DEADLY DINNER
Paris Green Not Intended for Chicken
Feed

FORT DUCHESNE, Utah, July To-
At midnight list man reached this gar
rison and notified the guard that eight
persons had been poisoned from some
unknown source and were writhing in
agony at their camping grounds three
miles from the post. Surgeon Flagg,
with assistants, soon reached the camp
and found great excitement among the
members Of the party. Women and
children were suffering with terrible
pain and nearly insane DIR. Flagg as
certained that these victims were un-
doubtedly seriously if not fatally poi
soned. Emetics were administered
which brought temporary relief. When
questioned as to what they had been
eating during the afternoon they said
they had killed and cooked two chickens
and eight persons had partaken of the
same. Investigation revealed the fact
that these chickens had been roaming
about in the vicinity of where green
paint powder was being used. The VIC
tins were brought to Fort Duchesne,
where they are now being given medical
attention. Six of them are by no means
out of danger. The party was composed
of the family of Seth Pell and friends
Of Ashley, Utah.

BERLIN, July 10-The main business
Of serious import to be transacted dur

Of a distinct understanding between
Russia and Germany in regard to a
frankly anti-Britieh policy in the Orient,
especially in connection with Japan and
China, and in the event of possible COM
uation in India. Emperor William will
pledge himself to Systematically support
Russian interests in that part of the

approved by Prince Hohenlohe, the i'm
perial chancellor, and which, it is hoped,
will further isolate Great Britain, Rus

FEARS OF TARIFF
The newspapers are full of dismal fore
bodings in regard to the new United
States tariff. The Liberal newspapers,
however, for instance the National
Zeitung, the Tageblatt, Boersen Courier
and others, warn the government
against entering forthwith into tariff
war with the United States, though they
have no doubt the Dingley bill will be-
come law substantially as passed by
the senate, and that German industry,
notably woolens, will be gravely in
jured.

PENSION AGENCIES

WASHINGTON. July 10.-The order
of Presidnet Cleveland, issued last Feb
ruary, reducing the number of pension
agencies in the United States from
eighteen to nine will be revoked by Pres

original order was not to go into effect
until September / next. and the only eff
feet of the revocation will be to con-
slider in force the present arrangement
allowing all Of the agencies to remain
in operation.
Secretary of the Interior Bliss is now
out Of town, but he has conferred with
the president over the matter. as has
also Commissioner of Pensions Evans,
and it was some time ago decided that
it would be unwise to permit the change
of system to go into effect. and that for
the present, however much some new
scheme might be needed, the plan for the
best interests of the service was not to
cut the existing system. The proposed
consolidation was to be effected by pay
