Mr.. Charles Glenn, of 1868 Dudley ST.,
Cincinnati, is one of the many who
constantly praise S SIS. for giving him
back his health. He says:
"From childhood 1 was afflicted with
q terrible blood disease, and have
taken almost every blood remedy on the
market, but my case was deepseated,
and one by one they failed. The large,
red blotches increased in size and num-
Der, and soon covered my entire body.
"My parents had me treated by num-
Der of physicians, but the disease was
too much for them, and after their tenn
porary relief was over, 1 found myself
growing steadily worse. Thus grew
into manhood handicapped by terrible
disease an h wing tried so many RENE
dies without elief, when friend urged
me to take SIS S. I had little faith in any
medicine. was happy to find, however,
that had at last gotten the right remedy,
for one bottle OF S SIS did me so much
good that SOON had hopes of being cured.
continued the remedy, and was cured
completely, the unsightly spots soon
disappeared, leaving my skin perfectly
clear. My general health was also built
up, and am robust and strong. I be-
lieve S.S.S. will cure the worst case of
blood poison in the world"
S.S.S. is real blood remedy, and will
cure the most obstinate cases of Cancer,
Eczema, Catarrh, Scro lula, Rheumatism,
Contagious Blood Poison, old sores,
or any disease caused by impure blood.

Jokes Versus Justice.

The magistrate committed the woman
in default of 5000 bail for her good be-
havior for one month. AS she was being
led down stairs she muttered something
"Do you hear that, judge?" exclaimed
the ex-sweetheart in alarm. "She says
she will shoot me when she gets out"
when she shoots you, come around
here and we'll look after her." the
magistrate said as he turned to the next
case.
Ignoring entirely the fact that the
justice should have got 80 days on the
spot for his horribly unfunny effort,
and that his lack of regard for some
one who imagined himself to have been
aggrieved would seem to indicate that
he was devoid Of those finer and gentler
feelings which proclaim the true man,
it would indeed be fitting end to his
fiippancy and unjudicial disposition of
the case if the woman should really do
what the dispenser Of justice admitted
to be a possibility. The desire of some
justices to be comedians is getting to be
source of annoyance even to the law
yers who practice before them, and no
one need be surprised If some attorney
with an extraordinary degree of back
bone should prefer charges against one
of these imitators of Dogberry

NIT to the law. This is the opportunity
of your lives, and you can only seize
il by avoiding violent measures"
Mr. Mcguire urged his hearers to
keep moving forward for an advance
of wages, and said organization would
achieve their purpose. SIT has brought
success to the operators" he said,
"who have united in paying out the
least money they can as wages, and
now and then to employ deputies to
shoot you down"
The address was concluded with a
forcible invective against the company
store system, to correct which, he said,
the Attorney General Of the State
should be called upon to enforce the
store order law of 1901.
Mr.. Mcguire closed with reference
to the rise of the late Franklin B.
Gowen, who, he declared, chad
driven thousands of miners to famine
and despair, but ended by blowing
his brains out"

Dun's Review of Trade.

The end of the bituminous coal
strike and the return of many thou
sand men to work at advanced wages
adds to the purchasing power of the
people, and the anthracite strike
affects not fifth as many workers.
The starting of many mines and
works, the enormous exports of wheat
and corn, the favorable news as to
those crops and cotton, the fall in
sterling exchange and the report show
ing that gold imports began In August,
exceeding exports by $2,39o,5S7,
while merchandise exports exceeded
imports by $4o,953,7s3, have all
contributed to forward the improve
ment in business. The replenish-
ment of stocks cannot be half finish
ed, though some who could see no
sign of Improvement a few weeks ago
are now finding it so vast and rapid
that they fear reaction. But consum-
ers as we'll as dealers have also to
supply themselves after years of en-,
forced economy, and while their power
to purchase is increasing every day,
and their actual buying at retail, rea-
sons for apprehension are not urgent.
When the tide rises after four years Of
depression it does not fall again after
four weeks.
The wheat market has declined
over cts. on account of crop reports
which promise larger prosperity, and
corn and cotton are both little lower
for like reasons. Yet estimates of
the highest financial authorities re-
garding requirements from this coun-
try are not smaller, but larger than
before, while better prospects in
Argentina, Australia and India bold
out no promise of large European
supplies, or of any until winter is
about over. Atlantic exports Of
wheat, flour included, are more than
double last years each week, and in
two weeks S,Sao,313 bushels against
4Io7,72I last year, and of corn
7,o95,36s bushels against 3,9S7,sa6
last year. From the Pacific coast
wheat is also moving largely, aa ca7,
goes from San Francisco this month,
and over 54S,9S5 bushels in seven
days from Portland. Corn declined
over 3 ct. with growing belief that the
yield will surpass estimates. Cotton
was depressed from u to 7 cts. with
favorable news of yield, although the
mills are now consuming with great
lapidity.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

1t is difficult to say who does the
most mischief, enemies with the worst
intentions or friends with the best.
Such as thy words are, such will
thy affections be; such thy deeds as
thy affections, such thy life as thy
deeds.
There is a great struggle between
vanity and patience when we have to
meet person who admires us but
who bores us.
One of the highest mountains upon
which we may stand III this life, is to
be able to look back upon a long life
we'll spent.
Beware ofprejudices A mans mind
is like a rat trap; prejudices creep in
easily, but it is doubtful if they ever
get out again.
Want Of prudence is too frequently
the want of virtue nor is there on
earth more powerful advocate for
vice than poverty.
Don't get the notion that you are
the greatest person in creation. There
are plenty of other people who are
just as small as you are.
The worst penalty of evil doing is
to grow into likeness with the bad /;
for each mans soul changes accord
ing to the nature of his deeds, for
better or tor worse.
Patient, hopeful waiting is hard
work when it is the only work posi-
BILE to us in an emergency. But
patient waiting is in its time the high
est duty of faithful soul.
A good and wise man will at times
be angry with the world, and also
grieved at it: but no man can ever
be long discontented with the world If
he does his duty in it.
We should so live and labor in our
time that what comes to us as seed
may go to the next gene ltion as
blossom, and that what came to us as
blossom may go to them as fruit This
is what we mean by progress.

TWO IMPORTANT POINTS.

There are two points now promi-
nent in the Hazleton strike affair, and
public discussion of the massacre can
not be dropped without reference to
these.
The foreigners who were killed at
Lattimer, whether aliens or citizens,
were under the protection of the laws
of Pennsylvania and of the United
States. 1t does not make any differ
ence whether or not they came from
the slums of Europe or were trans
ported here from European prisons
and pauper institutions. The fact
that the United States received them
upon equal terms with other immi-
grants guarantees them the equal pro-
lection of the laws of this country.
Nor can it be conceded that the VIC
Tins of Sheriff Martins men had been
deported from their own country or
had been paupers or Jail birds, with
out evidence to that effect And
even If they were, only diabolically
distorted mind could find in the fact
any reason for approval of the Latti
mer crime.
General Gobln appears to be stand
ing in the way of the execution of the
laws of this state. He is preventing
the service upon Sheriff Martin and
his deputies of warrants for their ar.
rest, regularly issued by and under the
authority of this commonwealth. 1t
is the popular impression that he thus
sets aside the authority of the CON-
momwealth. The plea that he is un-
der direction of the sheriff and that if
the sheriff and his deputies be arrest.
ed he will have no superior is unten-
able. Goblin does not appear to be
under the direction of the sheriff.
And even if he were, the law provides
for all contingencies that might render
that official unable to perform his
duties temporarily.-Pati

YELLOW FEVER SPREADING IN
THE SOUTH.

The rapid spread of tine yellow
fever is causing great sensation in
the south. Two weeks ago there
were brt two cases known to the
Board of Health of Louisiana, and in
spite Of all efforts made to wipe out
the dreaded disease it has spread
with alarming rapidity until now it is
of an epidemlcal nature, as many as
twenty-five new cases having been
reported in one day the forepart of
this week. The New Orleans board
of health have sent an appeal to the
Governor of the State asking him to
supply them with $4,000 to assist in
prosecuting the fight against the fever.

MINERS ADVISED TO FIGHT.
Mass Meeting of 5000 Strikers Applauds
Radical Speakers.
Exciting Incidents During the Week.

The strike situation at Hazleton
was rather quiet last week, but is
again becoming serious as time goes
on. The awe caused by the arrival
of the troops is wearing away. Where
the soldiers were looked upon with res
pect, stones are now hurled at them
and they are reviled. Governor
Hastings last week gave orders to stop
the holuing of any meetings that might
have tendency to incite to riot, but
judging from the big mass meeting
held there Saturday night, the orders
are not being very strictly enforced.
The meeting was attended by fully
5000 miners, and was addressed by
P. ]. Mcguire, of Philadelphia, secre-
tary of the Carpenters and Joiners'
Brotherhood. His remarks were loud,
ly cheered. He said among other
things:
"We are here to encourage the
strikers in their movements for better
wages and better conditions, not to
encourage violence or disobedience of
the law. 1t is also our purpose to
help you with money and advice 10
achieve the success which other
organized workmen have achieved.
When l was first here, in the great
strike of 1877, the men were not in
the humiliating and degrading condi-
ton they are to-day; the company
store was not the power it is now.
Each change in the 20 years has
found the miners worse off, till many
are now getting less than ST. per day.
"The American Federation of
Labor counsels obedience to the law,
not only by you, but by the operators.
"We want justice meted out after
the Coroners inquest, and we will let
the cold, calculating law take its course
and mete out justice to those who are
guilty of that bloody massacre on
black Friday at Lattlmer.
"All the labor organizations of the
country are ranged on your side; but
you want to act peaceably in the
strike OF 1877 there was much vio-
lerce, and the taxpayers, you your
selves, had to pay millions for damage
10 property. What you want is to
secure your rights by organization,
not by acts of violence.
'ls 1t any wondc " he demanded,
''that you now peaceably arise and
say you are tired of being ground
down ofpaying three times the regu-
lar price for powder, and 200 per
cent more than you should for pro-
visions, in order to keep up the COM
pany stores? The miners of West
ern Pennsylvania are in a paradise
compared to your condition under
the Pardees and the Coxes of this
region"
The recent disorders in the region,
he told them, had come from lack of
organization, and he made strong
argument for union, regardless of
~reed, politics or nationality. By
organization, urged the speaker,
wrongs could be righted in the legal
and peaceable way-at the polls
where they could elect Sheriff who
would represent the interests of the
miners instead of those of corpora
tlo..s.
"This is not the time nor place to
arouse heated passions, for helpless
women and children are at stake" he
continued. 81 cannot see by what
lsht peaceable marches on public
roads are stopped; but we must sub
