PLEAD GUILTY.
Thomas Cavanaugh and. William
O'Brien Held to the Grand Jury for
Larceny.

Thomas Cavanaugh and William
O'Brien, two well known young men,
were arrested last evening by Officer
Michaels on the charge of stealing
goods from Neil Quinn's saloon, on
Market street. 1t is alleged that they
had been stealing from Quinn's saloon
for year, taking a great number Of
boxes of empty bottles, which were al
ways placed in the yard, back Of the
saloon, after being used. A boiler and
a great deal Of other stuff, which could
be sold, were taken.
Yesterday Officer Michaels found
them hauling away lot of stuff in a
wheel barrow. He caught both after
giving them quite a chance. They
were taken before Squire Fitzpatrick
and plead guilty. In default of bond
they were committed to jail for the
grand jury.

FRANCE AND OREYFi ).

The statement of Premier Crispi, OF
Italy, in behalf of Dreyfus, calls to
mind the fact that next Monday, Feb
ruary 18th, in the Assize Court of Par
is, Emile lola viii be brought to tlial
by the French government.
The title of the case should be: The
Meline Ministry VS.. Emile lola, charg-
ed with having attempted to defend
the good name and maintain the honor
of France.
On one side in this trial will stand
Zola, the novelist, champiSping the
cause of a dsgraced French officer
now in solitary exile in an iron cage
on des t shore. Against him will
he anayaI the French government and
the French Army, the alleged rotten
ness and corruption Of which are be-
lieyad 70 have maaa necessary the
martyldom Of Dreyfus for the shield
ing Of French officers higher in rank
than Dreyfus.
There can be no doubt but that all
the machinery Of civil and military
power will be brought into pay
against Zola in this trial. There is nc
douLJ that every possible influence adj
verse to Zola will be brought to bear
on the judiciary. Money has already
been used in lavish quantities to sub
sidize the Partisan press. The race
prejudice as against Jews has been in
voked to destroy sympathy for Drey.
fus Emile lola will virtually have te
grapp'e with all France because of his
zeal for the French national honor.
And yet the world will watch the
struggle Of this fearless literary mar
against such Overwhelming odds with
almost a certainty of confidence in his
ultimate triumph. If lola can secure
an open trial, his case is practically
won. Publicity, the publicity of news
paper ink-will win it for him by Civ
ing worldwide circulation to his pre-
sentation of the facts in the case oil
Dreyfus, thereby creating a public SEN
timent against which his powerful an
tagonists will not dare to make d
stand.

1t is said that Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wilson is sanguine that certain
discoveries made as the result of ex-
perimelts conducted upder his direc-
ton in Nebraska and Iowa will net
the farmers of the United States a
round million of dollars. Great has
been the loss to them, at one time and
another, through hog cholera; but it is
now claimed that thorough specific
for this disease has been found. A
cure can be effected, it is stated, by in
jecting certain serum into porcine
veins Iniecteded into healthy ami
mails it acts as a preventive. Pork, in
its varied forms, is probably in more
general use than any other meat, and
the fact that it may be made proof
against the effects of cholera will not
only be boon to those who fatten il
for the market, but to those who buy il
for their food.

A TAINTED TITLE.

The esteemed Intelligencer has of
late developed marked partiallty for
the New York Evening Post. AL
thought it used to designate the Post
as a British free trade organ" since
Larry" Godkin, as the Republican
editors used to call him, has developed
into staunch supporter of Wall
street, the British gold standard and
Saint Hanna, our neighbor has drawn
more or less comfort and inspiration
from his virile-not to say virulent-
editorial columns. Editor Godkin
thinks and moralizes only in one way
that is, he moralizes and exerts Lis
well-flled think tank'-as they say
on that well known thoroughfare OF
Editor Godkin's town called the Bow
that is, Godkin's. Editor Godkin
lust now is devoting his splendid
talents to vindicating the honor OF
Mark Hanna from the charges of brlb
cry and corruption that have been
brought against him in the Ohio Leg

So completely is "The Dazzler"
changed this season, that it might well
have a new name. Inasmuch as mu-
sic and dancing constitutes about
three-fourths of any farce comedy, to
change all of its music and dancing is
equivalent to giving a new piece. Elk
actly this has been done to THE Daz-
zler," and when the curtain rises upon
Cosgrove & Grants comedians in that
we'll known farce comedy at the Grand
on Monday night, the audience may
be prepared to see something that
bears but very little resemblance TO
last years "Dazzler." 1t is true that
Zeke Pipes will be there and he will
worry poor old Raj just as he did last
year. and everybody will be glad to re-
cognize beneath the rough tramp
makeup the smiling face of VIII
West. So, too, will be seen few other
familiar faces and characters; but the
clothes upon their back and songs they
sing, the dances they will do, will all
be new, bright and fresh. This en-
gagement is for half a week.

The series of two concerts given at
the Opera House, yesterday afternoon

HIS MAJESTY, THE GROUNDHOG.

When the grounding emerged from his
winter retreat yesterday morning he
found a snow storm and chilly atmos-
phere. Clouds were over the face of the
sun, and if his hogship didn't remain out
to witness the scattering of the clouds
later in the day and observe his shadow
it means that we are to have six weeks
more of the "old-fashioned winter.
That's the unwritten law as it has been
handed down to US from the fathers, and
it's useless to dispute it.-Intelligencer.
We never like to question our es-
teemed contemporary, but hasn't he
got this matter of the grounding back
wards?
AS we understand the memorable law
laid down by the grounding and
handed down by the prophets, if the
aforesaid wise animal, who carries
his own weather bureau with him,
does not see his shadow, he remains
out in perfect security that chill and
dreary winter is over, but if he does
see his shadow he is so frightened
thereat that he scurries back into his
hole to stay there for six weeks more,
for his scientific soul knows, without
consulting the weather reports, that
there are six weeks more of winter
to come.
That is our understanding of Prof.
Groundhog's infallible weather theory

Eugene Blair's coming engagement
at the Opera House Friday and Satur-
day of this week undoubtedly will be
hailed with delight by all those who
appreciate acting as an art. In the
different roles Miss Blair sees fit to
present herself she is always consist

above all the portrayal is womanly.
From her extensive repertoire the fol-
lowing plays have been selected for
presentation here: Friday night, ''The
New Magdalen," dramatization Of
Wilkie Collins beautiful story of that
name; Saturday afternoon, Camille"

The American Farmer is sincere in
what it says and whenever it endorses
an article, be it machinery, proprietary
medicine, or a man individually, we
want our readers to believe that what
we say we have good reason to under
stand is true. For n year or more
there have been endorsements Of the
Swanson Rheumatic Cure Company, Of
1G7 Dearborn street, Chicago, by this
paper. People have written us to
know If this company is responsible,
and if its remarkable remedies, for the
cure of rheumatism, neuralgia, dySpcp-
STA. catarrh, kidney troubles, etc, real
" had merit We have therefore been
at extra pains to investigate, and once
again we add emphasis to our former
endorsement of that company. There
may be isolated cases here and there
which, probably through neglect in fol-
lowing directions, or from exposure or
some uneXplainable reason, the won
derful Five Drops remedy does not do
the work. But it is a case where the
exception proves the rule. Mr.. Swan
son is a gentleman of character and
personal integrity, and, we believe,
would no more attempt to deceive the
public than the writer Of this article.

The Laughing Plant.

This grows in Arabia, and derives
its name from the peculiar intoxication
produced in those who partake of its
seed. 1t is of the moderate size, with
bright yellow flowers and soft v4Vety
seed pods, each of which containstwo
or three seeds resembling small back
beans. The natives OF the district
where the plant grows dry these seeds
and reduce them to powder. A small
dose of this powder has effects similar
to those arising from the inhalation or
laughing gas. 1t causes the soberest
person to dance, shout, and laugh with
the boisterous excitement Of a mad
man, and to rush about, cutting the
most ridiculous capers for nearly an
hour. At the expiration OF this time
exhaustion sets in, and the excited
person falls asleep to wake after sew
eral hours with no recollection Of his
antics.

growth has not yet been IDENTIFIED

The Tease Cat.

An English paper recently told the
story of cat named Miss. Miss was
a tease. When the other cat curls her
self up for a sleep Miss will get in a
position near her, and when she is
sure her friend is asleep Miss gives
her a quick tap on the head to waken
her. and then she crouches out of
sight, or runs away. Then when puss
curls down again and falls asleep. she
is reused in the same way, until she
catches Miss, and there is fight.
But this ending does not cure naughty
Miss of her teasing tendencies. The
next day she repeats her offenses in
evident enjoyment.
wonder if you have ever known any
boys and girls like this teasing cat.
