SPARKS FROM MAINE WIRES.

The Goth anniversary Of the Portland
served fittingly on June "a. in Port
land. In the forenoon old members will
be received from abroad. some of them
not having visited that city for years,
\ queer case has just been unravelled
by the post office inspectors. The story
as told by the Boston Record. is briefly
as follows: Two inmates of the Sol
Giers' Home at Togus, Me-. complained
of receiving annoying letters. The
post marks varied from Pittsfield to
South birmingham and later Lowell,
Mass. The authorities traced the
author by the handwriting and other
circumstances. 1t seems the writer
sent his effusions from Indiana to a
go-between in Massachusetts,. from
whence they were mailed to Togus.
Albert Wordsworth, a former resident
of Togus, is thought to be the author,
and has been arrested in Indianapolis.
He has not admitted his authorship.
Among his effects were pen drawings
written over with questionable remarks
indicating a mental unbalance. The
go-between was Mrs. A. A. Wood
worth. but as there is no proof that she
had any knowledge of the contents of
the letters she remailed, she cannot be
held. 1t is a question whether the case
should be heard in Indianapolis or
Boston.

race In 1860, the col0red race was total
~ illiterate In 1870 more than 81 per
cent of tho colored population of the
South, ten years of age and over. could
rot read and write. In 1880, the per cent
of slliterates comprised about 60 per cent
of the colored population, ten years OF
age and over There are in the United
States, 1852 institutions for the secondary
and higher education of the colored race.
In these schools are employed 1549 teach
ers. and the total number of students is
g l02; of these, 80 420 are in the elemen-
tary grades. 11,724 in the secondary
grades. and 1858 are pursuing collegiate
studies. Referring to the claim so often
made, that the development of cotton
and other factories in the South will af-
feet injuriouSly those of the North, Mr..
Wright said. in substance: 1.-THE indus
trial development of the South will de-
pend largely upon the Improvement of
the conditions of the laboring people of
the South. That improvement implies "A
higher standard of living, and greater
demand for the products for consumption
by its working people. This increased de-
mand for home consumption will prevent
any serious results to manufacturing in
the North" The able paper of Col.
Wright will have an extensive circulation
throughout the South Gen. w. S. Jack
son of Confederate fame. who listened to
1t. requested a copy to take with him on
a contemplated trip TO Europe.
Two distinct impressions seemed to
have been made upon the hearts and
minds of our Southern friends by our
convention at Nashville; first that
friendly relations existed between all Sec
tons of the country, and, second. that
the convention was not body of eranks
seeking to disturb the relations between
capital and labor but was composed of
men of sound minds, whose efforts were
in the line of cultivating harmonious re-
i3ttions and improving the conditions of
all classes.
The centennial exposition is a fine one
in many respects. Its location is admir-
able and the buildings generally magnifi-
cent and well adapted to their purposes.
Many of the exhibits We're not yet in
place. but those seen well illustrated the
Immense resources of that section of our
country. The attendance. while already
large will doubtless increase during the
season. 1t was claimed that the receipts
were already above current expenditures.
ard that the financial success of the ex-
position was assured. Nashville is a
beautiful city. now estimated at 10000 in
fabitantS. and. with its many adNan-
ages. will doubtless become one Of the
urge cities of the country.
While our visit to the South WAS q
pleasant and profitable one in many
ways. we returned with an increased love
and loyalty for our native State.

FOUR BOXES DID IT.
Remarkable Success of New Pile
Cure.

People who have suffered for years or
months from the pain and inconvenience of
that common disorder, piles, will look with
skepticisln upon the claims of the makers
of the new discovery for cure of all forms
of piles. known under the name of Pyramid
Pile Cure; nevertheless the extraordinary
cures performed by this remedy are such
as to warrant the investigation of any suf-
ferer AS case in point the following let
ter speaks for itself:
Mr.. Henry Thomas, of substation No. 3,
Hosack avenue. Columbus, o., writes as
follows:
Pyramid Drug Company:
Gentlemen-I want you to use my name
If it will be of any use to you. 1 was so
bad with the piles that lost work on that
account Nothing did me any good.
read In Cincinnati of the many cures of
piles by the Pyramid Pile Cure and I went
to drug store and asked for it. The drug
clerk told me that he had something else
that he thought was better, but / told him
that l wanted to try the Pyramid first
The first box helped me so much that
tried another and then to complete the cure
used two more boxes, making four in all.
l am now completely cured. Have not a
trace of piles and i had suffered for four
years with the worst form of protruding
piles.
l suffered death from piles, but I have
found the Pyramid Pile Cure to be just as
| represented. I have recommended it to
several of my friends and 1 am thankful
to be able to write you what good the
remedy has done for me.
Physicians recommend the Pyramid Pile
Cure because it contains no opium. CO.
caine or mineral poison of any kind, and
because it is so safe and pleasant to use,
being painless and applied at night. The
patient is cured in surprisingly short time
with no inconvenience whatever.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by drug
| gists at 80 cents per package, and if there
is any constipation it is we'll to use the
Pyramid Pills at the same time with the
Pile Cure, as constipation is very often the
cause of piles and the pills effectually re-
move the costive condition. Price of pills
is % cents per package

bion, Mich, for little book on cause and
cure of piles; sent by mail free.

I hone the Journal will do the family Of
Mrs. Anna Smock, nee Leavit, the justice
to correct the impression given by the arti-
Gle under caption of Finally they eloped,"
in the issue of yesterday. The statements
credited to Thomas W. Smock are almost
entirely false The father of the girl was
opposed to the marriage for good reasons,
but he conducted himself as a gentleman
throughout There never was a personal
contest between him and Mr.. Smock, not
even a war of words, and the story of the
shotgun and revolver" episodes are just
plain lies.
The allegation that the daughter was
watched and not allowed to go down town
unattended are amply disproved by the fact
that she was unattended and the ease with
which Mr.. Smock met her at her music

There is not even that small percentage of
