that institution to carry on it's work of
public education without interruption or

merely by the scrawl of pencil upon the

have legally ignored and that they did
not do SO, is worthy of special note in
these days, and a lasting tribute to their
generous and philanthropic spirit.

The accident in Providence on Sunday
where bicyclist racing with an electric
car was thrown from his wheel by the
breaking of pedal and instantly killed
ought to be a warning to cyclists in these
parts as.well as inssProvidence. A bicycle
ridden at reasonable speed and with
reasonable discretion is as safe, and proba
bly, safer than the horse and carriage.
But person who persists in propelling
it down a steep hill at5the rate of an ex-
press train takes his life in his hand In
spite of all precautions that can be taken
there will be occasionally some flaw in
the steel of which the machine is made or
some weakness, and these defects are
most likely to manifest themselves when
the wheel is revolving at high rate Of
speed. Considering the recklessness with
which many persons ride the wonder is
not that fatal accidents occasionally occur
but that they do not happen far oftener.

Canovas's resignation was anything
more than a ruse on his part it cannot

causes brought about the resignation the
probability is that they still remain and
will eventually produce another crisis.

DR.. Malcolm Morris, in the current
number of the Nineteenth Century, dis
cusses at some length ''the Progress of
Medicine during the Queens Reign. %
The writer asserts that the whole art of
healing has made greater progress during
the last sixty years than in the previous
sixty centuries which indicates the large
ness of his subject. He attributes this
surprising progress to two discoveries,
anaesthesia, or the artificial abolition of
pain, and antisepsis or the prevention of
infectiye processes in wounds.

by those most competent and experienc ed
to pass upon the question.

THE Seminole Indians SO say the
Florida trustees, ''are brave, independent,
and an intelligent body of men. They
have steadily refused to become the wards
of the nation. They support themselves
by hunting, fishing and planting; their
habits are clean and they are honest and
reliable They desire to be let alone and
not molested by the white people," Yet
in the face of all this, to further the spec
ulative schemes of lot of land grabbers
1t is proposed to Danish this peaceful and
progressive tribe from the Everglades of
Florida to an island unfit for life. There
seems to be no good reason in the world
why the advancing tide of civilization"
should push these Indians anywhere,
and if the state of Florida does its plain
duty, the scheme will prove abortive.

For your Protection. -Catarrh "Cures" or
Tonios for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-

q blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Gold in the head causes excessive ac-- CO
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, ths re-
suits Of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. The remedy should be quickto allay
inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's

these troubles and contains no mercury

In Octave Thanet's latest book, 1.-The
Missionary Sheriff." the scenes being
located in the West, and especially in
Iowa, the words ma" and pa" very
frequently occur in the conversational
episodes of the story and in the recital
parts also. The Iowa State Register"
breathing a prayer of Indignation for a
law making it a crime to use the words
and for fixing the penalty at DEATH
declares that its State is slandered;
that the words are not in general use
in Iowa, and since the people of that
State are mainly educated, and use the
terms father and mother. Thereupon
the Sac Sun comes back with a chal-
lenge in defense of the novelist, saying
that if a census of Iowa homes We're
taken on the matter the terms ma
and pa" would be found in habitual
use in two-thirds of them, and the two
thirds would include the educated fam
lilies. The public expected a reply to
this rap from the pugnacious Regis
ter" but to our establishment, on the
18th inst. it printed the Suns" crit
icism and challenge with not word Of
comment or dissent. Is this confession
on the part of the Register that the
novelist and the sun" are right?
