In commenting upon an editorial
in these columns, favOring the Losch
bill abolishing the office of Director
Of the Poor, the Hazleton Standard
says What kind of bunco game
is the HERALD trying to foist on
Schuylkill countains anyway? The
HERALD knows full we'll that the
measure will not eliminate politics
from our charitable institutions, but
will throw more power into the hands
of the Governor and keep the ma
chine in power.n Our contemporary
is unnecessarily disturbed. No one
will deny that the administration of
the almshouse has not been what it
should be, and the plan as proposed
under the Losch bill cannot be step
backward. The administrations Of in
stitutions similar to the Miners hos
pital, where the trustees are ap-
pointive and serve without compensa-
tion, is sufficient guarantee that the
county's poor will meet with the same
due consideration under a similar ad-
ministration. The appointments will
be jointly in the hands Of the Court
and the County Commissioners, which
at present in this county are Demo
cratic in complexion. If Senator
Loseh's motives were of political
nature he would have insisted upon
the appointment of the Trustees OF
the institution being delegated to the
Governor. That such is not the re-
quirements OF the act, is evidence
that the object is solely in the inter
est of the poor inmates.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES.
Do Not Be Alarmed But Look For The
Cause.

Do Not Be Alarmed But Look For The
Cause.
Heart troubles, at least among the meri-
cans, are certainly increasing aud while this
may be largely due to the excitement and
worry of American business life, it is more
often the result of weak stomachs, Of poor
digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable but not
one case in a hundred of heart trouble is or.
ganic.
The close relation between heart trouble
aud poor digestion is because both organs are
controlled by the same great nerves, the
| Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart is affected
by the form of poor digestion which causes
gas aud fermentation from half digested
food There is feeling of oppression and
heaviness in the chest caused by pressure of
the distended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also pOsons the blood,
making it thin and watery, which irritates
and weakeus the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart trou-
bic is to improve the digestion aud to insure
the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use after
meals of some safe, pleasant and effective
digestive preparation, like Stuarts Dyspep-
sia Tablets which may be found at most
drug stores and which contain valuable,
harmless digestive elements in a pleasant,
convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular persistent
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at meal
time will cure any form of stomach trouble
except cancer of the stomach.
Full sized package of these tablets sold by
druggists at 80 cents. Little book on stom-
ach troubles mailed free. Address f. A

Halifax. n. S.. March 1.-The over
due steamer Moravia, Captain Ferguson.
which sailed from Hamburg for Boston
Jan. IS, was wrecked on the northeast
bar of Sable Island about Feb. H. The
vessel was first seen on the bar about
eight miles from the Northeast light. She
was broken in two. The vessel was
making her last trip for the Hamburg
American line, having been recently sold
to the Sloman line, of New York.
The dominion government steamer
Aberdeen, which it is proposed to send
to Sable Island to the relief of the Mo-
ravia, will not be able to leave Halifax
for two days. There is no other means
of communication with Sable Island than
by boat, as no electric cable has been
found able to stand in the shifting sands.
The captain of the Gloucester schooner
Mamie G. Bohlin said that when the
schooner Arbitrator reported the wreck
the latter's captain smd that through
the haze he could see a steamers hull
high upon the sandbar, with one mast
gone and down at the head, as if she

SAMPSON AND scHLEY.
rheIr pImerences rrevcnt the At

Their Differences Prevent the Ad-
Yancement OF Either Rear Admiral.
Washington, March 1.-Another unsuc-
cessful effort was made in the executive
session Of the senate to confirm the nom-
nations advancing Admiruls Sampson
and Schley and other officers who partic-
ipatcd in the Santiago campaign. This
result was due to the objections Of Sen
ators Butler. Pettigrew and Stewart,
who talked through the executive session,
thus preventing the taking Of vote.
Senator Butler based his objection to
the advancement of Mr. Sampson upon
the revelations of the published record
Of the two officers, referring with es-
pcciol emphasis to the fact that Admiral
Sampson had himself been responsible
for Admiral Schley's remaining at Glen
fuegos.
The presentation of this point led TO
a controversy as to whether Sampson
had ever issued the order Senator For
akcr appeared especially anxious to Sc
cure confirmation or denial of this accu-
sation. indicating his opposition If 1t was
based upon correct information. He
wanted to know why, if such an order
had been issued, it had not been included
in the record of the two officers sent to
the senate by the secretary of the navy.
To this the friends Of Admiral Sampson
replied that it was to he presumed that
It would have been if such an order had
ever been issued.
Senator Pettigrew quoted the closing
paragraph Of Admiral Schley's state
ment "No one can get around that
logic" said Mr.. Pettigrew. This mat
for il of record If tbp otbpr is nOt and
enough is known to show the unfairness
Of Sampson"
Senators German and Wellington
made an appeal for action Mr.. German
said that he agreed with those who
claimed that there had been unfair dis
elimination against Schley, but he said
that he wanted him confirmed and he
saw no means Of protecting Schlcy with
out advancing Sampson.
A suggestion to confirm Schley and
leave Sampson unactcd upon was not
accepted, and the executive session
closed without action.

Clamoring For Recognition In sup
porting Public Building Bins.
Washington, March la frenzy OF
bill passing was on the senate yesterday.
The bills passed were principally public
building measures, and at times during
the day and nfsht the scenes in the sen
ate we're remarkable Senator's usually
staid and dignihed. stickers for order
and decorum in the chamber, clamored
for consideration of bills providing for
the erection of government buildings in
which they were interested, Late in the
afternoon Il large batch of such measures
passed by the house were received by the
senate. Instantly confusion reigned.
Senators crowded about the clerks desk
and began to sort over the bills from
the house, picking them out as they
found their own, as if they were choosing
valentines from bargain counter In
the area in front of the president of the
senate half dozen senators were wav-
ing bills and endeavoring to obtain rec
ognition from the chair. The unusual
proceedings called out protest from
Senator Platt. of Connecticut who de
mandeA that senators take their seats
and that order be restored. At times
throughout the sessions of the day and
night these scenes were repeated as more
building bills were reported from the
house. Bills carrying an aggregate OF
$4,000 600 or S10,000,000 were passed
and many more that had not been passed
by both houses of congress were placed
as amendments on the sundry civil ap
propriation bill Finally at a late houi
last night an amendment to the sundrl
civil bill was adopted appropriating near
ly S4,O00,00 for the preliminary worl
on the buildings which had been author
lied.
The house spent practically the entire
time OF the seven hour session passing
the public buildings bills favorably acted
upon by the committee of the whole ter
days ago. The opposition sought in. vain
to consume time by roll calls and othe'
iilibustering tactics, but their numbers
were 10 slim that in no case could the,
secure roll call.

THE BEEF INVESTIGATION.

Non-Commissioned Men Guess as to

Washington, March 1.-The feature OF
the court of inquiry into General Miles
beef charges yesterdaS was an object les
son in canned meats prepared by the
court and served to non-commisioned
men who testified at Mondays hearing.
The court had prepared eight plates of
beef-fresh beef, canned beef that had
been to Cuba and back, and canned beef
fresh from the factory. -Four plates
were prepared hot in a stew and four
cold hs they came from the can, the
fresh beef being boiled to make it re-
semble the others. The enlisted men
were ordered to sample each and say
which was the sort they had had in
Cuba, 1t was a trying ordeal for the
men, most of them declaring that none
of the plates looked anything like what
they had eaten in Cuba. BY repeated as
surances that there was campaign beef
in two of the plates, and after being
urged that they should at least choose
ito the best Of their belief" the court
succeeded in getting an expression of
opinion from each of the men. An army
surgeon, DR.. Bowden, kept tally on the
guesses of the men and changed the po-
sitioIt OF the plates after each witness
had left the room. The result of this
recorf was not made public, however,

THE CORNER LOAFER.

4 Contemporary Gives a True Picture of
the Shenandoah Species.
From Hazleton sentine.
The corner loafer nuisance makes its ap-
pearance regularly with the coming of every
spring and it is always met with precisely
the same mode Of treatment Citizens make
their complaints to the newspapers and to
the police and both find themselves powerless
to accomplish a reform. The newspapers
may fill columns with the most violent abuse
of the corner lOafer; he does not read it, and
if he does by chance read those assaults upon
him as an institution he is only pleased TO
know that he is of sufficient importance to be
assailed
The Jealous patroman may move him from
the corner but it will only be to the next
When the Jealous patroman finally becomes
weary of endeavoring to keep his post clear
of this Objectionable species and gives him
little colloquial shake up the institution de-
clares that he is waiting for work And
that's right--he is waiting for work, but he
only wants about ten cents worth at time.
His system is too greatly enervated for in
dustTy in allopathic doses. But he is looking
for work when the patrolman disturbs him
and what can the disgusted patrolman do but
allow him to continue his look for work and
incidentally take in the sights Of the streets.
The foregoing applies to that class Of Citi-
zens whose chief occupation in the spring is
to assist in the removal of furniture; in the
summer whatever turns up, in the fall the
same and in the winter getting in coal.
There are plenty of honest industrious men
who are out of work and who are earnestly
looking for it. They seldom stand on the
corner waiting for work to come to them
though they do occasionally stand on the
corner to while away a weary hour.
These persons the policeman are reluctant
to disturb. The bane of their existence is the
unkempt, tobacco-spitting corner loafer as an
institution.
