NusckzxArn0Ua MISCELLANEOUS
TWO CHICAGO SENATORS
Tell a Straight Story About Catarrh
and Pe.ru-na.

Chronic catarrh often makes its ap-
proach in disguise. Before person
knows IL he may become q victim Of
chronic cstarrh. Its onset may be grad
ual, its development insidious, and at
last the victim finds himself in the
clutches Of tenacious disease. A slight
cold, . tendency to sneeze, pufiiness in
the nose and head, fuilness or cracking
in the ears, stringy mucus in the throat,
slight cough or wheeziness, snoring dur
ing sleep-sny one Of these symptoms
should be regarded as warning.
What can be cured in the beginning in
. week or two, by using Pe-ru-na, If al
lowed to become chronic, may require
months Of faithful treatment. You had
better take Pe-ru-na now, for by and by
you may be obliged to take 1t long
time in order to get well. Pe-ru-na is
the remedy for catarrh; almost every
body knows that by hearsay, and thous-
snds know 1t by blessed experience.
Two Senators from the great metrop-
oils, Chicago, have something to say in
regard to Pe-ru-na:
Catarrh Seven Years.

The men who ara suppos to have
irurderei Postmas er Baker at Lake
City, = e., over year ago are to be put
on trial this week tefCre the Federal
court. Baker, who was a respectable
colored man of good education, was APP
pointed postmaster at this place by / resi-
dent Mckinley. Soon after his appoint
msnt he was warned not to take the
Office He paid no attention to the warn
ing. but began his duties. Then he was
shot at bur not hit. but subsequently, a
gang was organized, said to contain some
prominent citizsns, for the sole purpose
Of putting him oct of the way. This gang
set his post office on ire and brutally shot
him and his LADY to death. The only
re ,son ever offered for this crime was
that Baker was black. Ii was not alleged
that he was f bad character, or had made
himself offensive to the people in any way
except by accepting this Office. Some of
the lyme hings ct the South admit of this
extenuation that the man lynched has
been guilty Of u henious crime. But there
was nothing of the kind in this case. 1t
remains to be seen how convincing is the
evidence that has been collected against
the men who are to be put on trial, and
how rrady the jury are to he convinced.
Though the case is brought in the Federal
court the jury must be taken from
citizens of South Carolina. Whether a
Jury Of this sort san be relied upon to
bring In a true verdict In a case like this,
even though under the eye of Federal
Judge, is verv questionable.

The idea which was first worked out
practically when the Portland Company
built for Il. Moody Boynton the bicycle
locomotive, seems to be slowly maxim Its
way in practical transportation. 1t is
now proposed to build a single track read
bstween Liverpool ana Manchester. The
mechanical features Of tbs Io1d are q
single rail, elevated about four feet from
the ground, and mounted ON A-shaped
steel trestles. The ears would be carri d
on wheels in the centre, RAINING on the
single rail While this is styled single
rail system, there are, as matter OF fact,
four other rails, the ss being guide rails,
two on each side of the trestle work.
Stability of the cars is maintained by
30 horizontal guide wheels. The mo-
tive power proposed is electricity, using
the trolly system. While the estimated
minimum speed is set at 30 miles per
hour. with suitably constructed
line aud pnwer stations speed OF 100 to
100 miles PER hour is anticipated with
safety and moderate expense.

~ and His Followers.

Washington, May 24.-Ex>
Governor John Gary Evans, of
South Carolina: who, as a men,
Der of General Ludlow's staff, at
one time had charge of the city
OF Havana, called at the White
H"a" today. He returned from
Cuba about three weeks ago. His
accounts of Cuban conditions are
most interesting. He is q firm
believer in annexation.
eff you could have seen the
army that marched into Havana
behind Gomez, you would have
acknowledged the impossibility of
decent self-government on that
island" he said. "Of all the
heterogeneous assemblsges ever
gathered, this was the worst.
Coxey's army was a company of
aristocratic gentlemen by COM
parison. All this talk about the
patriotism of the Cuban army is a
myth. They were largely actu-
ated by desire for plunder and
for office. They now want to rule
the island because they see their
chances of looting the Treasury
will not be good, SO long as it
remains under American control.
To turn the island over to tn.
Cubans would be a worse crime
against civilization than to have
allowed the Spanish to rule it,"
