SECTION TWENTY-FIVE.


Attorney General McKenna Announce
His Opinion In Tariff Matter.
Washington, Sept. 21-Attorney Cen
eral McKenna today announced his
opinion in the matter of section % Of the
new tariff law. He holds in effect that
goods coming directly into the United
States from foreign countries through
Canadian ports are not subject to the
discriminating duty of 10 per cent. He
also holds that foreign goods shipped
from countries other than British pos
sessions in British vessels are not sub
ject to discriminating duty.
Two questions We're asked the attor-
ney general the first of which was, in
effect, whether the discriminating duty
of 10 per cent provided for in section %
should be assessed against an invoice of
tea from China, which had arrived at
Vancouver in British vessels and thence
shipped through Canada to Chicago. The
second question was whether the dis
eliminating duty should be assessed
against a cargo of manganese ore from
Chill, which recently arrived in a British
ship at Philadelphia. Both these ques-
tions the attorney general answers IN the
NEGATIVE.
The united opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1881-1970, 1897-09-24

No other medicine in the world is recon-
mended SO highly, SO strongly and so earnestly
and by so many well-known and prominent
people as DR.. Greeneis Nervura blood and nerve
remedy. 1t is recommended to the sick by al
most everybody, as the surest cure. 1t is
recommended everywhere as the greatest OF a
health restorers. 1t invariably gives strength
to the tired, over worked and WORKOUT body.
1t makes pure, rich, vitalized blood and strength
ems and invigorates the nerves of those who are
nervous, weakened and nerVe-eXhausted.
Then, too, look at the standing of the people
who recommend DIR. Greenes Nervura blood
and nerve remedy as the greatest and graIdest
Of medicines. They are our foremost ctiz5S5
men and women occupying high places of honor
and trust and known to everybody, people
whose word is always the very essence OF truth
and who recommend the weak, nervous and
suffering to use DR.. Greene's Nervura because
it cured Them because they have absolute per-
sonal knowledge that it is sure restorer OF
health and strength, and because they wish the
public to have the full advantage of this truly
wonderful medical discovery.
They desire that health, strength and vigor
shall take the place of weakness, prostration
and despair among the people, and they publish
the marvellous facts of their own cures, over
their own signatures, that the common people
everywhere may know that to take DR.. Greene S
Nervura blood and nerve remedy means to be
restored to health, reinvigOrated, rejuvenated,
reyitaized, with new hope, renewed powers,
energies and amt tAons.

BARNATO IN THE COMMUNE.
How the Diamond King saved the Bank
OF France.

How the Diamond King saved the Bank
OF France.
A writer of stories about Barney
Barnato says, III the Philadelphia Bull
letin, that there is a circumstantiaIly
definite account OF his presence in Paris
during the commune Of 1871 In the
utter break up of all social fabric he
Sound his capacities OF IL paying order.
For there is little doubt that his was
the craft that enabled the shrewder
CommuuarCs TO realize the money need
ID to supply the siDews Of war
One day, during the gloom and stress
IF the government siege, the president
Of the Bank Of France Was confronted
by an unken'pt mob The d.Iand was
explicit. They wanted all the gold IN
the banks vaults. The spokesman
flourished bloody saber and the mob
accentuated the demand by all sorts Of
ferOCiOus threats Itwas in the height
of tins melee that a man who had been
eounseling the financial deputy Of the
commune rode up, adorned by red sash
and other insignia of the terrorists He
made his way through the vociferous
throng and handed the governor of the
bank large envelope. While the official
was reading it the besashed emissary
turned to the clamoring nomads and, in
a tongue unknown to the officials and
probably to many Of the mob, addressed
them few sentences. A singular event
followed. A dozen of the ringleaders at
once began haranguing the rioters. In
a few minutes every one OF them with
drew. The besashed parsonage remained
in consultation with the governor and
when it was ended withdrew. An hour
later six covered wagons came to the
bank and We're laden with bags such as
the bank always makes use of in trans
porting specie
When Barnato appeared as the dia-
mond king in South Africa, a score Of
the cOmmu ards, who had fed from
France, We're IN exile Ia the region
where Barnato had cornered the mines.
One day IN the plenltude of his attiu-
ence he was wuylaid, riding IN the
Rand, by a company of miners. One OF
them, by a few words, succeeded in
gaining his private ear This man was
known as the most ferocious of the BLOOD
thirsty gang who had taken part in the
killing of the hostages in La Roquette.
He recognized Barnato as the emissary
sent by the commune to the Bank Of
France, and the knowledge enabled him
TO get il on the ground floor of the dia-
