PROBITY IN POLITICS.

| Financial chastity in their rules is q
matter on which the English people feel
acutely. The demand for character in
public life has increased since Cornwall
lis surrendered at Yorktown, and in the
last fve-and-twenty years there has
been a marked growth in this healthy
instinct on the part of the newly en-
franchised people Her majesty's min
listers are some of them rich and some of
them poor. When they take office under
the crown, 1t is often a matter of con-
siderable sacrfice-for some of them, at
/, all events-to lay down the well-paid
directorships of public companies held
by them. In some cases the acceptance
of Office is a relief from pecunary anxi-
ETY..
For many generations there has been
no financial scandal in connection with
the highest office under the crown,
though in four instances ministers have
had to resign their offices in consequence
of financial corruption associated with
their names. The younger Pitt first OBJ
tanned the affection and confidence of the
nation by refusing to appoint himself to
an office of profit, vacant at a time when
he sorely needed the money, and when
his private income did not exceed fifteen
hundred dollars a year. Lord Beacons-
field, who was denounced from the be-
ginning to the end of his life by his po:
litical opponents as an adventurer, and
is still habtually spoken of as a Semitic
soldier of fortune, was personally poor
man. In November 1875, when prime
minister, he secretly purchased from the
khedive of Egypt, through the house of
Rothschild, 1862 shares in the Suez
Canal company for the sum of 49,
80 This transaction Immediately
raised the value of Suez Canal shares
and of all Egyptian securities to very
large extent, and would have enabled
Mr. Disraeli to have enriched himself, If
not beyond the dreams of avarce, at all
events with very comfortable fortune,
without chance of discovery. 1t speaks
well for the standard Of honor and good
faith prevalent in English public life
that ,Dizzy's btterest political oppo-
nents never limited, even in private con-
versation, that he had used the opportu-
nifty for the purpose of enriching himself
or his friends. Not a vestige of suspi-
cion rests upon his name.-Arnold White
in Harper's Weekly.

RAIN. WIND AND HAIL,
The Three Combined Made a Rousins
Storm Yesterday Afternoon.

The Three Combined Made a Rousing
Storm Yesterday Afternoon.
The storm yesterday afternoon was
most refreshing and blessing in the
way it settled the dust and was at the
same time a noteworthy one on account
of the heavy fall of hail which accom-
panied it. It seemed from the fierce
ness with which the storm ragged while
it lasted as though two storm areas had
met and We're battling one against the
other for the right of way.
Lowering clouds in both sections of
the sky gave the first warning of its
approach, quickly followed by large
splashes of rain. Even while people
were hurrying for shelter it came down
faster. With the wind lifting the rain
and driving it along with great velocity
1t changed suddenly into hail, large
heavy stones which threatened at times
to wreck the windows against which
they fell.
Suddenly the wind veered completely
around, the hail ceased, and the heavy
downpour of rain again commenced. In
all it lasted for about half an hour,
cooling the atmospher most delightful
1y and removing most effectively that
horrid dust,

cATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple but Safe and IF
fcctnal Cure for IL.

/
Catarrh Of the stomach has long beer
considered the next thing to incurable
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
| with sour or watery risings a forma-
ton Of gases causing pressure on the
heart and lungs, and difficult breathing;
headaches, tickle appetite, nervousness
and a general played-o out, languid feel
ing.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the interi-
or of the stomach could be seen it
would show shiny infamed condi-
ton.
The cure for this common and obsti-
nate trouble is found in treatment
| which causes the food to be readily,
| thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate mu-
| cous surface of the stomach. To secure
| prompt and healthy digestion is the one
| necessary thing to do and when normal
digestion is secured the catarrhal condi-
ton will have disappeared.
| According to DR.. Harlanson, the SAT-
| est and best treatment is to use after
each meal a tablet, composed of das-
tase, aseptic, pepsin, a little Nux, Gold
en- Seal and fruit acids These tablets
| can now be found at all drug stores I'M
| der the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
| Tablets, and not being a patent medi-
cine, can be used with perfect safety
and assurance that healthy appetite
will follow their refular use after
meals.
Mr.. N. ]. Booher of 2710 Dearborn
street, Chicago, ILL.,, says: "Catarrh Is
a local condition resulting from neg
lected cold in the head, whereby the
lining membrane of the nose becomes
infiamed and the poisonous discharge
therefrom passing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus pro-
ducng catarrh of the stomach. Medi-
cal authorities prescribed for me for
three years for catarrh of the stomach
without cure, but to-day I am the nap
piest of men after using only one box
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. l can
not find appropriate words to express

| wife and family of eight children. Not
far from there is what is believed to be
the famous Gunsigbt mine. One of the
pioneers in passing through that section
picked up piece of lead almost pure
and made a sight for his gun with it,
1t was so rich that when he told the
story in civilization prospectors started
out to locate it. The fact of the SINH
larity of all the valleys led many astray
| and they persisted from thirst. His de-
scription of the spot applied to so many
spots that no one has been able to locate
the mine, but the present owners be-
| lieve they have found it.
The valley adjoining that which is
| the route of the Nevada Southern is
called Pahrump. 1t is the principal one
of them all for gold and silver and lead
mines. Up the valley, which is one of
those dry, barren sand gulches between
two perpendicular walls of rock, is the
Mesquite stamp mill. On one side is
the keystone gold mine, from which
200 has been extracted. Up at the
head of the alley is the Montgomery
gold district. Several miles above the
mill is the Pahrump Springs, where a
hardy pioneer has settled in beautiful
little oasis and reared a family.
Those who have visited the family
say that away off there, imprisoned by
canyon walls and sandy deserts, is the
most beautiful woman in the west. She
is one of natures queens and her fame
for beauty is spreading quite rapidly
since grim civilization placed his foot
in the Pahrump valley. The Pahrump
valley has not been noted for its civili-
cation. A band of renegade Indians-a
mixture of the Mohaves, Chingowayras
and Piutes, all of which inhabit that
country--have settled In 1t. They once
had a chief, and when he died his son
was the candidate for the chieftain-
ship.
The tribe did not want him and would
not elect him, so they went without a
head, but not for long Tecopa stepped
into the job and has since held it and is
looked up to as the chief. Chief Teco-
PAL attire consists of a plug hat and an
old striped shirt. Once in awhile he
wears trousers, but very seldom. When
Mr.. Blake went there Chief Tecopa said
that he owned all that country and that
his consent was necessary before any
railroads could be built. His consent
could be bought with plug hat and a
red striped shirt. These being promised
over a pipe, Tecopa allowed the white |
chief to proceed with his railroad-Den- |

CHILD WIVES.
THE PATHETIC PICTURE
DICKENS DREW.

OF all the characters evolved from
the master mind of Charles Dickens,
there is perhaps none which can rival
in its pathetic interest, that of Dora,
the Little Blossom" She found the
wedding ring grow too heavy for her
little hand and in spite of the lavish
ness of n husbands love, she faded
away just like some sweet blossom
nipped by untimely frost
The pathos of the child wife's history
reaches its climax in that last inter-
view with her husband. David sits on
the bed side, and thus the story Is
told:
"She looks into my eyes and speaks
very softly, I am afraid dear 1 was
too young, I don't mean by years only.
but in experience and thoughts and
everything. l was such a silly little
creature. I have begun to think 1 was
not fit to be a wife,
II try to stay my tears and to reply,
oh, Dora, love, as fit as 1 to be a
husband"
II don't know" with the old shake
of the curls, Perhaps! But If 1 had
been more fit to be married 1 might
