Miss Waring, who has been the guest
of Miss Mary Rawson for some time, re-
turned to her home in Paw Paw, Tues
day.
In return for courtesies extended them
by the women's clubs of Dowagiac,
Hartford and Paw Paw, the Every Tues
day Club of our town extended an invita-
tion to the said clubs to celebrate the
fifth anniversary of the Il. Il. c., at De
catur, February 2l, 1899. A goodly
number of ladies from Paw Paw and
Dowagiac we're present, but the Hart
ford ladies were unable to come because
of the poor railroad facilities, much to
the regret of all Mrs. VIM. Tuttles
spacious home was the scene of the fes-
tivities. A brief literary and musical
program was presented, three course
luncheon was served at 1890 and the re-
mander of the time was given over to
the bright conversation in which club
women are said to indulge.

Comment Unnecessary.

"Whereas, the blessings of peace and
prosperity promised us upon the advent
of the republican party to power, have
not .ome to the people of this country:
Resolved, that we, the union silver party
of Van Buren county, in convention
assembled, reaffirm the principles OF the
Chicago platform and pledge them our
support, believing them to be the safest
means of obtaining national prosperity. y
r. G.. Dun q Co.'S weekly review OF
trade, March 4, said: Business for
the past month was far the greatest ever
known in February. Clearing house ex-
changes were about S7,000,0O0,OOO, as
against s5,567 ,553, ,S44 last year, and 54.2
per cent larger than in 1892. In all the
years of weekly commercial reporting,
there has been no other week in which
the reports from all parts of the country
have been on the whole so good as this
week. Moreover, during the past week
there has been a general advance in
wages, immediate or prospective. AT
most points the advance of 10 per cent
or more was entirely voluntary. 1t has
averaged 5 to 10 per cent in tinplate
works and about 10 per cent in other
cases, and as it affects much over 100000
hands, it will add greatly TO the purchas-
ing power of the wage -earners."
Comment seems to be uncalled for and
unnecessary.

principles of the Chicago platform may
show consistency, but will in no respect
add to the strength of the democratic
party in this county.
We presume that President Mckinley
has not yet heard that the Van Buren
county democratic convention has adopt
ed resolutions opposed to the policy OF
territorial expansion. 1t is possible that
when the news of the action of this con-
vention reaches the president there will
be no delay in ceding to somebody the
Philippines and Porto Rico.
From the general tone of the last two
paragraphs of the resolutions, one might
imagine that private wire connected
this county convention with the republi-
can state convention in session at the
same time in the city of Jackson. The
declaration adopted in the county con-
vention of democrats is almost exactly
the same in import as the resolution in
favor of equal taxation adopted by the
republican state convention. 1t is really
unfair in our democratic brethren to at
tempt to steal the republican thunder
which was used so successfully in the
last state campaign. However, we are
glad to see the democracy absorbing even
so much as this of republican prin-
ciples. If one did not know so well the
history of the democratic party, he might
almost believe that this might be the
entering wedge which would eventually
accomplish the conversion of the party,

Van Buren, Democrats Resolve

Elsewhere in this paper will be found
resolutions adopted by the democrats of
Van Buren, county. In two or three
respects they are remarkable. The first
paragraph confirms the idea that has
long been prevalent that the average
democrat is unwilling to recognize pros
perity when he meets it face to face.
When the country is enjoying the largest
volume of business in its commercial
history, it is surprising that any body of
intelligent men should publicly declare
that the blessings of prosperity have not
come to the people. The fact of the
matter is that populism and democracy
thrive only on adversely and in the midst
OF hard times. the reaffirmation of the

Office Parlors at the Dyckman
House, Paw Paw, on
Thursday, March 10.
One Day Only Each Month.

DIR. Mcdonald has for years
made a study and speciality of
chronic and lingering diseases
that require skillfull medical
treatment for their cure; such
cases as family physicians fail to
help and pronounce incurable are
particularly solicited, especially
those over dosed with strong
mineral drugs and poisons. DIR.
Mcdonald uses only the purest
medicines from the vegetable
kingdom. He pays attention to
the cause of the disease and in
structs his patients the way to
health and happiness.
DR.. Mcdonald can show hun
dreds of testimonials in the hand
writing of grateful patients who
have been cured by him, when
others fail. He is so familiar
with the human system that he
is able to read all diseases of the
mind or body correctly at glance
without asking any questions.
Thousands of invalids are being
treated daily for diseases that
they do not have. while few
drops of medicine directed to the
seat of the disease would give
speedy relief and permanent cure
in very short time. Good health
is the most precious jewel in our
crown of happiness. With it the
world is bright, without it, misery
claims us for her own. If you
are sufferer you should weigee-
we'll these words; person who
neglects his health is guilty of
great wrong to himself and
grave injury to humanity. The
name of DR.. Mcdonald, the we'll
known specialist in the cure of
chronic and lingering diseases,
has become a household word in
thousands of homes which his
skill and wonderful remedies have
made happy by restoring dear
ones to health after all hopes
were lost. The doctor is a grad
uate of the highest and best med
ical colleges and his advanced
theories in the treatment of
chronic diseases surprise the
most skeptical. All chronic dis

The flowers used for distillation, such

believing that California will soon sup

make this industry a success in Califor-
MIA is the capital needed and the Yankee

about to be furnished.

HORSE THIEF'S BOASTS.

Greensburg Penn.) Special Pittsburg
Times: An interesting specimen of the
criminal class was to-day placed in Jail
here. Peter Zimmerman has made a
lifelong business of stealing horses, and
boasts that he has stolen nearly 100
horses, and has spent 40 years in prisons,
covering a period of IS years of his life.
He is Is years old to-day, and on his
birthday n in a new prison became
reminiscent. He smiled at the thought
hat he had never received over IA
months as a sentence for a single animal.
He was sent to the Denitentiary twice
from Washington county, twice from Fa-
yette and from Butler, Lawrence and
other ountie in western Pennsylvania.
The life of the old man has been ting
ed with sorrow, invariably, however,
brought upon himself, through an appar-
emily irresistible impulse to steal when
a horse suiting his fancy would come his
way. He has no regrets for his past
life, however, n is happy because he
has prospects of again being sent to
prison. He says he is too old to work,
and will be content with a long or short
period of confinement in the peniten-
tiary.
Zimmerman was born in Donegal, this
county, September 81, 1924. He was
about 10 years Of age when he began
stealing horses. One day he saw a
horse in a pasture field near L%ahinger's
] Mill, in Mt. Pleasant township. He took
the animal and hurried off to Somerset.
There he was arrested and taken to the
Uniontown Jail. He escaped from the
prison a few days afterward and en-:
tered upon the horse stealing business
F, with a vim that terrorized the horse
! owners OF that section. He would be
! arrested, sentenced to prison. released,
and Their he would again take up his
unlawful calling.
During the civil war the old man did
a paying business. He Travelled over the
state, but his work was done principally
in western Pennsylvania. He would
! steal horses and sell them readily at good
prices to purchasers for the United
| States army. Ohio, West Virginia and
Maryland We're drawn on heavily. He
says that ever since he stole the first ami
NAL he has never been able to resist
taking a good horse when the opportun-
fty was presented.
For the past few years the old man
has attempted to live an upright life. A
few days ago he had occasion to go to
Indiana county, and. according to his
story. he was passing the farm Of JOhr
| Wilson. A fine horse was grazing on the
