Each Trade or Occupation Has It's Special
 Disease.

It is we'll known among medical men that certain diseases are more readily developed in certain occupations than in others. That each occupation has it's attendant physical weakness. En- gineers, railroad men and similar oc- equations suffer mostly from kidney troubles and men who are often eX- posed to the weather suffer from rheu- matism, while clerks and professional men, in fact, the army of people whose business keeps them indoors, are often times great sufferers from piles and constipation. In this connection the following letter is of interest to people whose occupation will not allow suffi- cient outdoor exercise.
 MT. A. F. Calhoun, notary public and jeWeler and watchmaker of Circleville, W. Va., writes as follows: have been a severe sufferer from piles for years and had tried many remedies with but little benefit, when about three years ago I saw the Pyra- | mid Pile Cure advertised and sent for | it.
 I was badly afflicted when I go it, but after only two applications the piles disappeared and from that day to | this have never felt symptom of the | disease.

WHERE WAS SIGSBEEp

1t is a little singular that in all the
10000 word synopsis of the testimony
given before the court of inquiry there
is nothing to positively determine the
exact whereabo bouts of Captain Sigsbee at
the time of the explosion Of the Maine.
Spanish officials and Spanish news
papers have repeatedly asserted that
when the explosion occurred Captain
Sigsbee was not on board the Maine,
and it is to be regretted that the investi-
cation should not have settled this point.
Of course, 1t may have been an omission
in summarizing the testimony; if SO it
should be made clear.
Current report had it that the captain
was in his cabin when Marine Anthony
came to him with the now famous sem
tence: "Sir, l have to report that the
ship has been blown up and is sinking!"
But the summary of Captain Sigsbee's
testimony does not say he was there.
One sailor testified that he started to-
ward the captain but the time and
the place are not mentioned. Chaplain
Chadwick, IN his evidence, says that he.

English brokers interpreted the message
to mean a postponement Of hostilities
with Spain, favorable to an eventual
peaceful solution of the problem upon IA
money basis, the assumption by Cuba
of at least a portion Of the Spanish
war debt. and it's probable guarantee by
the United States.
Yesterdays radical change in the at
titude of the American congress was not
received in London in time to effect the
stock market-albeit 1t was doubtless
wholly beyond the conjecture of the
English speculators-and Spanish As

over the previous days quotations. On
the New York board heavy reaction set
in at the opening, and prices fell below
the London parity. Railroad securities,
notably the Changers, suffered most,
since they would be the first to feel the
effects Of a war movement, and al
though the bulls succeeded in recovering
a portion of the lost ground, the quota

allied in any single instance, although
the transactions were quite large.

There are two hundred and fifty thous-

should not be another weeks delay in

THE HERALD'S EXTRAS

The Spanish crisis has become SO acute
that the people cannot wait for the reg
ular editions of the daily newspapers.
They want news that is news, and they
want it when it is fresh.
The Herald undertook to supply this
demand yesterday, and IL the manner in
which its two extra editions were sold
out is any criterion it succeeded admira-
bly,. The first extra was issued at a. m.
containing the news Of the threatened
revolt of the Republican senators and
representatives against what they
admin nistration. This edition was quickly
sold out, and still the cry was for more.
Congress met at noon, and the three
fateful war resolutions were almost i'm
mediately presented, followed by an i'm
passioned speech by Senator Mason.
Owing to the difference in time between
this city and Washington it was easy for
The Herald to issue at 1880 a. IN. a sec
ond extra containing bulletins telling OF
the war resolutions and the scenes OF ex-
element that followed their presenta-
tion. This edition was sold as quickly
as was the first, and two hours later there
was not n copy to be had for love or
money.
The Herald may be depended upon to
cover the morning paper field with as
many extra editions as the news war;
rants, keeping the people fully in
formed regarding the great crisis
through which the country is now pass

THE REED OBSTRUCTION

One element in congress is thoroughly
organized, and if the Car is to be sue
cessfully combated there must be CO.
hesion between the other members Of
the house. Tom Reed is about the only
remaining obstacle in the way of action
looking to the speedy determination of
the problem as to what the United States
is going to do about it.
Numerous suggestions have been made
as to the most effectual way of overrid-
ing the man and his infamous rules,
but until the house determines that his
dictatorship shall come to an end the
serious matter in hand may drag along
for days-days of the most momentous
significance to this country if it is to en-
gage in war with Spain, for even
minutes are precious.
Full of resources, adroit, cunning and
audacious, he wields power before
which even those who have attained the
full stature of statesmen stand dis
comfited. Never before have the Ameri-
can people had such an exhibition of
autocratic domination presented to their
surprised vision.
But we greatly mistake the temper of
the house, as evidenced by the debate
of yesterday, and the utterances of
members after adjournment, if the czar
is not forced to the wall before another
day has passed.
House rules are good until they are
broken. The conditions that have OBJ
tanned demand that they be smashed ia
smithereens without any unnecessary
ceremony. Seventy millions of people
ought at this time to assert their inde-
pendence of this Republican autocrat.

A Peril to the Press

A free press is essential to free institu-
tions, but if the time ever comes in this
country when a government can command
the pAss to speak or be silent. as the
French government now muzzles the Drey-
fus discussion bN ministerial decree. "yel-
low journalism will be answerable for the
enslavement. A community which finds or
thinks 1t finds it's peace and property i'm
periled by newspapers whose managers,
inspired by the meanest commercialfsm,
imperil those interests for the purpose OF
selling papers, will no more hesitate to
punish newspaper men than men of any
other profession or calling so SHINING
against the public. Then the good, the bad
and the Indifferent will come in for indis-
criminate punishment Of the sins Of the
guilty. The liberty Of the press was never
meant to be license, and neither law nor
common sense gives immunity to. .license.-

Stories From the Bench

The other day when petition was laid
before Judge Emory Speer in Macon, ask
ing the court to summarily cause the city
waterworks company to vacate the site
upon which it's plant was established, the
irrepressible judge, who had been trying
moonshine cases all day, asked:
What? Would compliments demand
that 10000 souls be deprived of water?"
This turn of the court recalls story told
on Chief Justice Joseph Henry Lumpkin
in the old days. A case had been brought
up from Columbus in which wealthy cit
izen was asking for an injunction to pre-
vent the construction Of a planning mill
across the street, very near his palatial
residence His grounds for complaint con-
sisted chiefly in the proposition that the
noise of the mill would wake him too early
in the morning.
LET the mill be built" said the chief
Justice in rendering his decision; "let Its
wheels be put in motion. The prtDyress Of
machinery must not be stopped to suit the
whims or the fears Of any man. Com
plainant's fears are imaginary. The sound
of the machinery will not be a nuisance.
On the contrary. 1t will prove lullaby.

SOLAR P1Exus PHILOSOPHY

Fighting Bob Evans, who has just
taken command of the battleship Iowa,
is living up to his title. In our issue of
yesterday he delivered himself in way
calculated to warm the cookies of the
American heart. No public utterance
since the disaster to the Maine has met
with a more universal acclaim. II said,
the morning after the explosion, that the
chances were million to one against its
being an accident, and I am Of the same
opinion now, although have not seen
the report Of the board of inquiry"
Reinforced by the testimony upon
which that report was based, is not that
the conviction of the American people
today9
But Fighting Bob expressed other
views quite in keeping with his reputa-
ton, and in accord with the popular
view. He had the courage to tell the
president, before leaving Washington.
and when it was apparent that congress
was to be held in check, that he should
at once send fifty thousand men to
Florida, and provide Immediately for
their transport to Cuba. This heroic
proposition he supplemented, after his
arrival at Tampa, with the practical
suggestions that follow:
The torpedo f1otilla should be stopped
at all hazards. A Knockout blow should
be struck by the United States before
Spain gets chance. We have an enor-
nous coast line to protect. and we
should not wait until Spain is pre-
pared to attack it. When you want to
whip a man, get in the first blow. Hit
him on the point of the chin. That is
what we ought to do now. don't be-
lieve in delay.
Commander Evans placed himself
about a week ahead of congress, and
slightly in the lead of the masses of the
people, in all of his quoted utterances
but we have quite caught up with him.
1t is Fighting Bob's next move. AL
ewes on the Iowa!
