A NEW DISCOVERY BY THE SHAKERS.

For more than hundred years tho
Mount Lebanon Shakers have studied
the cultivation of medicinal plants and
sought to extract from them their heal
ing essences. Their labor has not been
sDent in vain They have made dis
covery that will prove a blessing to
mankind. II consists OF a cordial that
causes immediate relief in cases of IN
digestion The importance Of this dis
Covery will be apparent when we rea-
lie that nearly nlne-tenths OF our SUI
fcrlng are caused by dyspepsia or in
digestion. Nearly every person YOU
meet has this digestive trouble IN some
OF Its varied forms-sick headache, dis
tress after eating pain and fullness In
the chest after eating, palpltation OF the
heart, etc, are but symptoms OF lndl-
gestion. TO relieve these sufferlngs
has been the study of the
Shakers, and they have succeeded. The
reason the Shaker Digestive Cordial has
such an immediate and salutary effect
is that II causes the food eaten TO be
dlgested. for It Is undlgested food that
causes the distress. The Cordial
causes the food to be digested before
there IL time for it, to ferment and
sour on the stomach. When the food
is so dlgested II gives strength and
vlgor 20 the feeble body, makes one feel
bright and cheerful. and makes one
gain IN flesh,
The Digestive Cordial is so prompt In
It's action that the very first dose will
have u perceptibly favorable result, 1t
gives immediate relief
Every druggist has been sent a sup
ply OF our handsome Donkey Puzzle
Books, and copy may be had for the
asklng. 1t tells all about the Cordial as
well az Laxul, the new castor oil.

gestive Cordial and see what It win do

tine CrOsine.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., May 16.-The
French brigantine Crosine from Bay
onne, for st. Pierre, with a valuable
general cargo, went ashore yesterday
morning near Lemaline, N. F. A heavy
sea was running and the crew succeeded
only with the greatest difficulty IN
launching their boats, which were al
most swamped among the breakers.
They rowed all day and all last nlgnt'
but were unable to find the land. Ihey
had no provisions, so hurried was their
start from the vessel, and they suffered
greatly from the cold and drenching
sea. About noon today they heard the
fog horn at the entrance Of the harbor
of ST. Pierre, and making their way
towards the port were picked up by a
pilot boat. The crew numbered twenty
eight, most Of them greatly exhausted
from hunger and rowing.
The German steamer Arcadia, laden
with grain and bound from Montreal
for LIVERPOOL, went ashore this morning
near Cape Ray, on the southern side OF
the Gulf of St. Lawrence, in a dense
fog. Her passengers, numbering twenty
five, and the crew Of fifty-four had a
desperate experience in trying to reach
the land Three men attempted to SWIM
through the surf with the life line, but
failed, the fourth, however, succeeded

a favorable position so that all were
safely landed after a hard struggle.
Neither passengers nor crew saved
thing. The vessel is likely to become a
total wreck. as she lies on jagged rocks
with a big hole in her bottom. A steamer
will be sent for the passengers.
HALIFAX, May 16-It is reported tonight
that the German steamer Arcadia, which left
Hamburg one month ago today. with a large
cargo aboard had gone ashore early this
morning at Channel, N F., and may become
a total wreck. The Aracdia is very large
steamer, one of the largest running to Mon
treal, being $500 TONS Her long voyage Is
attributed to the probability that she has
been imprisoned in heavy field of ice, and
that, after getting free, she lost her reckon
ing in the thick fog while making for st.
Johns for coal. Steamers have been sent to
her assistance from Halifax. to see if there
is any possibility of saving her.

Very Rev. Edward p. Allen COnse-
Grated at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Md, May 16.-The
Very Rev. Edward P. Allen, D. D.,
recently appointed bishop of Mobile.
Ala, was consecrated at the cathedral
here this morning. Cardinal Gibbons,
as consecrator and celebrant of pontffi-
cal mass, was assisted by Bishops Ed

mington. Del, and Donahue, of Wheel
ing, w. Va.
The sermon was preached by Rev.
Dr. Philip J. Garrigan, Of the Catholic
university, Washington.
The cathedral and it's adjacent streets
were thronged by thousands Of deeply
interested spectators. Prior to the ser
vices procession, consisting OF the OIL
ciating clergy and seminarians,, which
had formed at the archiepiscopal resi-
dence, proceeded slowly along the
crowded street to the main entrance OF
the cathedral.
There were in line $50 seminarians
from ST. Mary's seminary, Baltimore;
40 serninarians the alumni and gradu-
ating class of Mount st. Mary's college.

lens labors, for the past ten years. In
addition to these there were about IS
priests and a host Of sanctuary boys.
The elaborate ceremonies within the
cathedral were most impressive, and
lasted about four hours.
At the conclusion Of the conservation
ceremony the distinguished prelates
and clergy were entertained at dinner
at st. Mary's seminary.
Bishop Allen is forty-five years old,
and was born at Tewksbury, Mass,
near Boston. With the exception of
three years spent in the diocese of Bos-
ton, his duties have been those of presi-
dent of Mount st. Mary's college, EN-

the affairs Of that institution have very
materially prospered.

A generally varied and interesting l1st Of
vaudeville spectalties was that which COM
prised the bill which opened the Grand lase

programme last night was for tha most part

view was that Of monster Gala lily.
The little people-both girls-divided honors
with their elders on the bill. Addie Fayart,
who appeared to be of tender years, gave a
rare bit Of costermonger singing and dancing,
doing some Of the cockney things IN which
Chevalier was seen while here. The other,
Anita Lawrence, is a wonderfully constructed
little woman, who dances cleverly, and WOULD
put to shame a lot Of contortion1sts IN ue

of knots and unraveled herself without the
slightest concern She did splits when woulo

been persuaded to come back again. He was
there with choice assortment Of disconnected
conversation, which, in other hands, would be
stale and improbable. He was applauded
when he first appeared. when he was talking
and after he got through, and he appeared to
be satisfied.
LelliOtt Busch and Lelliott, three exception
ally versatile musical people, ground harmony
out Of fddles, comets, trombones and man
dolins, and for the opening number gave a
really musical performance with lot Of din

musical instruments, animals, etc. Barring

be a juggler and equilibrist of no mean
ability, and he balanced plates, Japanese par

innumerable dishes, balls, bottles and tables in

programme, and gave a number of negro
melodies and baby recitations.

Having read about the swindling

eraI days past, the Minneapolis firm of
Moe, Anderson & Albonson yesterday
were on their guard when a man Of
like description ordered casket. A
policeman was called and the alleged
crook was locked up at the South
side station charged with vagrancy
He gave the name of Peter Nelson, the
same which he has used in his swind-
ling operations. However, the prisoner
became sick and had to be removed to
the city hospital, where it was stated
that at present the nature Of his
ailment could not be told. The suppo-
sition, however, is that Nelson has
been drinking too heavily Of late, the
samples" of liquors which he procured
at wholesale houses being too much for
him.
waited upon Nelson when the latter
entered the store yesterday morning.
He said a relative Of his had died, and,
with tears in his eyes, picked out 8.
handsome casket, to cost about $6o.
He said he wanted it sent to the I'm
ion depot, as he lived in the country,
but he neglected to state where. He
seemed to be in great hurry and said
he was short of money just at that time
and would like to borrow 81 which he
promised to send with the money for
the casket as soon as he arrived home.
Mr.. Anderson had read the G i o b e S
account of the swindler and he became
suspicious. Nelson said he was going
over to get his team on Fourteenth av-
enue, having driven into town, and
Officer Nelson was called. When ar
rested, the swindler said: whats the

ed his bill to secure revenue to pay ex-
penses and leave a surplus as "a fun
damental step in maintaining the cred
it of the government and averting any
danger of deprecated currency" for
then there will be little danger Of q
prolonged presentation Of grenbacks
for redemption"
The facts refute this assumption Of
a. relation between redemptions and
deficits or SURPRISES. Redemptlons had
grown to an extent to raise the appre-
hension of Secretary Foster at a time
when there was a surplus in the treas
ures for buying gold. Redemptions
ceased practically In September, 1893,
after congress was called In special
session to repeal the silver purchase
act, although receipts were unequal
to expenditures. They began again
with the increasing strength Of the sill
yer agitation and drew the gold down
to a point within two days of suspen-
sion, although the reports showed a
cash balance in the treasury. They
practically ceased with the decision of
the polls on the issue of 's6, although
the revenue was still below expendi-
ture. They have recently risen again
in volume to excite apprehension, al
though the receipts are unparalleled
and exceed outgo.
For this many reasons are assigned,
payment for the increased imports be-
ing one. But the gold should be COM
ing this way. Our imports for nine
months ending with March amounted
to $49S, S60, $40, while our exports
amounted to $SO7,717,511 during the
same period. Here is over $500, 100000
to our credit, which, after deducting
payments for interest and other debts,
should leave exchange still in our favor,
preventing gold redemptions and eX-
ports. 1t is quite as probable that re-
demptions have again begun because
it is now accepted that there will be
no currency reform; that the endless
chain" will be kept ready for service,
and that the ultra action on the tar
iff will cause a political reaction Of
which the advocates Of free coinage
will be the benefciaries. It becomes
palmer daily that the sacrifices made
by the gold standard Democrats last
wear were futile

STICKS TO HIS TExT

There is an apparent fitness in the
selection Of the New York Journal bv
Mr.. DingIey as the medium for COM
municating5 to the country his nebulous
views on the currency as affected by
the tariff bill, the paternity of which
has been so ruthlessly wrenche.1 from
him by Senators Aldrich and Allison.
The general unsoundness Of the Jour
nails scheme Of finance makes it the
appropriate channel for Mr.. DingIey's
similarly ungrounded policy. Tn enc
respect, at least, these two financiers
are in accord. The Journal supports
the Chicago proposition for the per-
petuation of the greenback with a door
open for it's increase, and Mr. Dingley
evidently contemplates his measure as
a. means of giving it permanency.
There is little encouragement for
currency reform In this communication
of the leader Of the house. He still
clings tenaciously to the position as
sumed by his fellow part1sans, that it
was the deficit in revenue that caused
the depletion Of the gold reserve end
not the redemption Of greenbacks COM
PEELED by apprehensive holders. Hav-
ing charged, for tactical purposes, tie
panic to the threatened change Of Dur
poses Of taxation-in itself transparent
ly absurd-the further assumption of
the deficit as the cause of gold redemp-
items became logical and necessary
partisan step. Weak as human nature
still remains, it Is not surprising that
blame for the results of their own stu
pidity should be thus thrown onto
other shoulders. So Mr.. Dingley franz

The recent rumors Of the ABSORPTION Of the
Minneapolis & St. Louis by the Illinois Cen,

are believed by the Chicago Times Herald,
which said yesterday:
Admissions of railroad men who are In the

purchased the Minneapolis G st. Louis is abb

themselves will not discuss the subject.
''For some time" said a railroader yester-

ing hands Today 1t is held by men who are
known to be favorable to a plan Of selling

the inside Of the deal have been expecting
an announcement Of the sale for some time.
It is possible that the details of the transfer
have not yet been arranged, and that they
will not be for some time The ultimate
transfer of the road, however, is almost
certainty
