CAPT. JOHN DAVIS.


Capt. John Davis, one of EIlsworth's
oldest citizens, and one high in the esteem
OF all, died last Saturday, aged seventy
seven years. Capt. Davis was born in

tor, catherine" and Forest City,, the
last vessel having been built for him in
sullivan.
Capt. Davis retired from the sea in 1878,
but still held his interest in several vessels.
In bis private life he was an upright citi-
zen, a stsunch friend, a kind neig hbor.
He was oyerseer OF the poor for several
years, and no deserving ones looked to
him in vain for assistance.
Capt. Davis was one OF the oldest Ma
sons In Ellis worth, having been raised to
the sublime degree in Lygonia lodge in
1851 He was recently made an honorary
member in recognition OF his long service
to the lodge,

The English Society for the Prevention of
Con sumption" presided over by the Prince Of
Wales, WAS recently addressed by Sir William
Broadbent, who stated that IL was definitely
known that every case of consumption began
with germ commu nicated from some other
case. There is no such thing as Inherited con-
sumption. There may he local weak ness which
tends to consumption, but the germ has ab-o
luiety to he planted in that weak spot before
consumption can ensue. This ought to comfort
thousands of people who have "weak chests"
or weak lungs. They are not foreordained
victims OF this dread disease. A II thai q needed

is TO be able to strengthen the weak lungs, and
build up a strong boty. The answer to this
need is found in DIR. Pierce's Golen Medical

A sub mittee remained in Wash
ington to take the testimony of add
tional witnesses, summoned from Utah
in the Roberts case, but so far the ex-
pected witnesses have not reported.
The polygamy of Roberts is regarded
as having been fully proven by wit
nesses already heard, and the expec-
tation is that the committee will make
its report 10 the House within a week
of the reassembling of Congress, and
that it will be against Roberts.

Senator Hale, of Maine, the most
earnest and most persistent opponent
of the war for liberation, now very
frankly accepts the situation in Cuba
as he had already accepted the situa
ton in the Philippines. MIR. Hale
gives his fellow senators to under
stand that he agrees with them. that
the Cuban people should be intrusted
with government as soon as prac
ticabie, and that this is very soon.
Incidentally, Senator Hale's action is

Army officers are much pleased
with the prompt response to the ap-
peal for fluids for the widow and chill
dren OF the late Gen. Lawton. More
than $1,000 has already been re-
ceived for the fund. 1t is also pleas
ing to officers that Mrs. Lawton has
chosen Arlington as the final resting
place of the remains of Gen. Lawton.
While this sort of thing is gratifying
to every patriotic American, it means
more to army officers, who devote
their time and willingly give their
lives to the service of the country,
than TO others-it is an assurance to
them that the country appreciates
their bravery and devotion.

The Kansas City StGr, al independ-
ent democratic journal, N explaining
the readiness with which the demo-
cratic party has accepted Bryan as
the candidate for 1900, says: 1T must
be apparent to experienced politicians
Ike Croker and German that the de-
mocracy has no show of winning next
year. Those democrats who are able
to reason from cause 20 effect have
already admitted to themselves the
certainty of republican victory in
1900. AS a sacrifcial offering, Mr..
Bryan is eligible in the highest de-
gree. His wonderful powers of en-
durance will enable HIN 20 go through
the motions of campaign with a
show of confidence that will add at
least semblance OF interest 10 the
contest. The result viii be to bury
Mr.. Bryan, free silver, anti-expansion
and all, and give the democrats a
snow for a new deal and reorganiza-
ton on rational and popular princi-
pies. Whatever may be said of their
lss1.:S;ss, C-S.:e- Coz u14sIl, Ell ais, have
always been noted as shrewd poll
ticians, and their smooth scheme to
permit Bryan to be swallowed up in a
hopeless fight does not lessen their
reputation for great sagacity.n This
shot is evidently pretty near the
mark, and coming from the outskirts
of the democratic camp, mas more
than the usual signif eanee.
