The report of the Russian prisons de- partment has just appeared in St. Pe- tersburg and contains some remarkable statistics It appears that there are e70 prisons in ksiatic and European Ras- sia, with the total number of 1G0,91 prisoners. The maintenance of this vast army of criminals, many of whom ara merely political offenders, involves an enormous cost, for which adequate pro- vision is not made by the state The consequence is that in the majority of cases the inmates of the prison have to endure the worst conceivable sanitary conditions, and the official figures, which are invariably optimistic, show that no less than 80 per cent of the pris. on population suffer during the year from typhoid fever and kindred epidem. ies

The commercial treaty between Aus tria and Bulgaria which WAS on the point of being negotiated at the time when Prince Ferdinand made bis hum. ble submission to the czar, and which has hung fire ever since, is finally about to receive signature and ratification. Bulgaria has only obtained this by means of sacrificing number of de- mands which Austria had formerly con- scented to ooncede, but which she now refuses to grant. Inasmueh, however, as most other countries had declined to ratify their new treaties of commerce with Bulgaria until that with Austria had been arranged, there was practical ly no other course open to Prince Ferdi- nand. The treaty with Austria provides for general Bulgarian duty of IA per cent ad valorem, while 26 specified ar- tieles are excepted. These include tim Der and agricultural machines. which pay 8 per cent: glassware. 3 per cent. and sugar. 18 per cent.

SMITH AND CHOYNsKI.
Their Twenty-ROund Fight Comes Off
in Now York Tonight.

NEW YORK, May 9.-Denver Ed Smith
and Joe Choynski will meet in a twenty
round bout to be decided in the Broadway
Athletic Club tomorrow night. This is an
event that has been looked forward to for
a. long time, and betting is about even on
the result. Both men will enter the ring
carefully trained for a hard encounter. In
anticipation of d severe contest with Smith,
Choynski has been working with Tom Shar-
key at Dew Drop, S. l., and has developed
quite a knowledge of rough tactics. Smith
has been training at Sheepshead bay, under
the direction of Pete Burns, who prepared
Maher for all his fights. Dan Lynch, man
ager for Sharkey, gave some interesting in
formation to-day regarding the Maher-
Sharkey bout. He said the articles of agree
ment provided that the bout is to take
place in New York between the 1st and 10th
of June for a purse of $4,000 offered by
William A. Brady. Brady has posted a
81, 800 forfeit, and, in case he fails to bring
off the bout in New York city, the $500 is
to be equally divided between the two pu-
gilists. Jimmy Colville, of Boston, who was
~timekeeper in the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
bout. has been selected to act as referee.
Lynch says Brady will bring off the bout
either at Manhattan field, Manhattan beach
or in the Palace Athletic Club.

TELEGRAPH POLE TALK
TOPEKA LAW AND ORDER PEOPLE
DEMAND ENFORCEMENT OF LAW.
Kansas "Reformers" Have Permitted

Topeka, Kan, May 9.-In Kansas We
learn that when an angel dons the garb of
a reformer it is liable to become a devil in
carnate For fifteen years we have had
prohibition and been fighting joints and
drug stores, but it was left for the glitter
ing hypocrisy of a reform administration
to witness and permit the re-establishment
of az open saloon with it's plate-glass coun-
ter and white-aproned bartenders. The
people have known for some time that I'M
der the un-American, -unrepublican system
of metropolitan police joints were becom-
ing exceedingly numerous. But the an
nouncement Of the opening of a gilded open
saloon last week startled the law-abiding
element that had apparently been sleeping.
A mass meeting was promptly called and
vigorous steps taken to see that laws are
enforced. At Fort Scott the Governor had
tried to persuade the county attorney to do
nothing toward enforcement of the prohibit
tory law, but failed in his efforts. In To-
peka he has said he has appointed the best
men he could find for police commissioners
He probably means the best Populists.
There has been every indication that the
authorities are standing in with the law
less elements. Populist police, Democratic
sheriff and a county attorney selected by a
minority of his party under the Republican
primary system give the whisky men a
chance TO run things for a time. The tenn
per OF the meeting on Friday night indi-
Gates that lawlessness will not be per-
mitted, even if authorities are lax. A few
OF the whisky men attended the meeting
and attempted to raise a disturbance near
the entrance. They cheered remarks made
by the county attorney explaining his fail
ure to perform his duty. The of
the presiding officer, ex-Lieutenan Gov
eFhor James A. Iroutman, so enraged one
OF the gang that he proceeded to the plat
form as If he desired to make war. and was
promptly hustled out, but not by the police.
The two officers present maintained their
positions with the whisky gang and made
no effort to restore order. Strong resolu-
tions were passed. and If officials DO not at
once enforce law another brief meeting
will be held and they will go after" both
officials and whisky men. The sentiment is
so strong here that it will be impossible
for Topeka to become like Wichita. 1t has
only been eleven years since men of To-
peka hanged a murderer to a telephone
pole. Some talked force at the mass meet
ing. The indications are that laws must he
better obeyed or there will be trouble. Peo-
pie mean business. and the other fellows
might DIS Wen understand 1t. a. c.

HOosIER BATTING STREAK
Lasted Long Enough to Wake the
Game a Tie ut Columbus.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
COLUMBUS. o.. May 9.-After a ten
inning struggle the first game of the season
between Columbus and indianapolis to-day
was called on account of darkness with the
score a tie. 1t started out a pitchers bat
tie. Not a run was made for three innings,
and but one hit registered. Then the
Hoosiers commenced to take kindly to
Dinsmore's slow curves and at the same
time he seemed to lose all control, with the
result that six runs were scored in the
fourth and fifth innings. With two men
out and every corner occupied by a Hoosier
in the fifth Daniels was sent to the pitchers
rubber and from that time on the visitors
could do nothing in the run-getting line.
1t looked like a hopeless case when Dam
iels went in, as the Senator's were not hit
ting Goar to any extent and the big crowd
that swarmCd all over the field commenced
to thin OUT, believing the game to be lost.
Two hits and an error had given Columbus
two runs in the fifth and in the sixth they
had a little fun with Goar. Five clean
singles netted three runs and in the eighth
they tied the score when Mcfarland muffed
OMeara's long fly, the latter scoring on a
t~wo-bagger by Crooks. Tebeau made a
desperate effort to score in the sixth and
was called out at the plate on a close de-
clslon. He made a vigorous kick and was
sent to the bench, O'Meara taking his
place. Later in the game Straus batted for
Fisher and afterwards played first base.

of the Final Contests.

ST. LOUIS, May 9.-The twenty-seventh
national festival of the North American
GYmnastic Union, or Turnerbund, to-day
closed a most successful meeting of four
days, and prizes were awarded to the vic
tors. Like those given by King George of
Greece to the successful competitors in the
Olympian games at Athens last year, they
consisted of laurel wreaths. Each wreath
was tied with a white satin ribbon in
scribed with the words ''27 Bund funniest,
st. Louis, Mo-, May 8, 1884," A diploma
accompanied each wreath. The awards
were made tonight at Liederkranz Hall,
in the presence of an immense crowd of
the disciples of Jahn.
At the fair grounds to-day, in spite of
showers that poured down, there were 25,-
900 people out to see the sights. 1t had been
expected to make this the banner day of
the festival, but the wet weather caused a
curtailment of the programme. The masse
exercises had to be abandoned, but the
competitors in field sports, Groups l and 2,
were able to finish. The only event rot
completed was the hundred-yard class
races. In these races ffty-two classes out
of several hundred here were unable to
run their men because of wet grounds.

With all that we read of the great floods

the actual condition OF things there, unless
one has been on the ground and seen for
himself. One Of the saddest features of it
is the great suffering caused to domestic
and wild animals. / spent the spring Of 1866
on the Mississippi river between Natchez
and Baton Rouge, and saw the effects Of an
overflow when there was no one to render
assistance TO those in distress. The deer
would congregate in droves on the higher

strike out and swim TO the east side of the
majestic river, where they would find safe

Remedy, but 1t Does the work.
There are some people who have piles as
frequently and regularly as other people
have colds
Any little bowel trouble will bring them
on. any extra exertion, as in lifting, will
produce them, and in fact will often appear
without any apparent provocation. Piles,
however, are much more serious than a
cold, as the tendency is always TO grow
worse until the trouble becomes deep seated
and chronic. or develops into some fatal
rectal disease.
While there are many pile remedies which
give relief, yet there is but one which not
only gives instant relief. but at the same
time makes a permanent cure, and that is
the well-known Pyramid Pile Cure.
This remedy is composed of simple. harm
less. vegetable ingredients, but combined so
effectively and acts SO promptly and thor
oughly that it cures every form of piles
whether itching, blind, bleeding or pro-
truding.
In long-standing cases the Pyramid Pile
Cure has proven to be the only certain cure
except a surgical operation, and its advan-
tages over an operation are many, as it is
painless. causes no delay or interference
with daily occupation, and last but not.
least, it is cheaper than any surgical OPERA
ton could possible be. costing but 4 dollar
a package at any drug store.
The cases that the Pyramid Pile Cure Will
not reach are so few that physicians are
doing away with operations for piles and
depending on this cheap but effective rem
edy to accomplish a complete cure, and It
never disappoints except in cases beyond
the reach of medical skill.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
the Pyramid Drug Company, of Albion,
Mich, and for sale by druggists everywhere
at so cents per package. Each package cons
tains a treatise on cause and cures of piles
together with testimonials from every sec-
ton of this country.

ANsON GETS
The Colts Come Close to Shutting Out
Cincinnati.


CHICAGO, May "a mob of nearly sew
enteen thousand "rooters'' saw the Colts
administer a humiliating defeat to the fast
team from Cincinnati to-day. Griffith was
in his old-time form and the visitors would
have been shut out but for two unfortunate
errors by Pfeffer in the third inning. The
Reds put up a perfect game and Chicago
earned two of her five runs. The crowd
was so large it swarmed over the field and
ground rules had to be made, allowing
three bases for every hit in the crowd.
Griffith did not give a single base on balls
and struck out the visitors at critical times,
cutting off Miller, Vaughn and the old re-
liable McPhee, the latter on two occasions.
The crowd was in great glee each time and
when the last man was out in the ninth
inning went away satisfied that Chicago
has at last ound a team in her own class.
Arson says tonight the Colts will now
start on their upward march for the top
of the column. Score:
