Plant a Tree.

Superintendent Brooks, Of the
public schools, has selected April z,
the first of the two Arbor Days named
by Governor Stone, for the planting
OF trees by the school children.
Although the opportunities for
planting trees are not so great for
children in Shenandoah as they are
for those in the country districts, at
least one tree can be planted in every
school yard and the occasion can be
made one for instructing the children
in the Importance Of preserving the
forests and of fostering the growth of
trees whenever possible.
And not only may trees / q planted,
but vines, shrubs and plants of all
kinds for by these means the chill
dren will be brought close to nature
and be better able to understand the
"vario1s languages which she
speaks
No opportunity ought to be lost by
the teachers in the schools to lead the
children into these nature studies, and
particularly should some special form
of observance be adopted for the
Arbor Day which Superintendent
Brooks has named.

What Shall We Do.

A serious and dangerous disease prevails
in this country, dangerous because so decep-
tive. 1t comes on SO slowly yet surely that it
is often firmly seated before we are aware Of it.
The name of this disease which may be
divided into three distinct stages is, First,
Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back,
rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to
urinate often with a burning sensation, the
flow of urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy
pain in the abdomen low down between the
navel and the water passage, increasing de-
sire to uriuate, with scalding sensation in
passing, small quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw il
with instruments. If uric acid or gravel has
formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected
The Third stage is Bright's Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that DIR.
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder
specialist, has discovered a Remedy famous
for its marvellous cures of the most distressing
cases and known as DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root.

RIVER STEAMER WNECKED.
Boiler Blows Up and Probably Fifty.
eipht PersOns Lost.

Boiler Blows Up and Probably t1ttN-
eight Persons Lost.
New Madrid, Mo, March 30.-The
steamer Rowena Lee, with about 81
passengers aboard besides her crew, eX-
ploded opposite Tyler, Mo-, about 1
o'clock yesterday afternoon and immedi-
ately sank with all on board except Cap
tain George Carvell and one of the crew.
The steamer left Cairo with rs passen-
gers aboard bound for Memphis. At
Charlottesville, Mo-, she landed and took
aboard 10 more passengers.
She made the next landing at Tyler,
Mo, and at 4 O'clock yesterday after
noon backed into midstream from Tyler
to proceed on her journey. The steamer
had just reached the middle of the river
when she suddenly stopped and lurched
as if she had struck snag. The next
moment the boat parted in the middle,
a volume of steam and debris arose and
the detonatiOn of an explosion thundered
over the water.
The steamer was manned by the fol
lowing crew: Captain, George Carvell;
first clerk, L. X. Booker; second clerk,
Gus Mitchell; third clerk. Sam Lewis
pilots, Sid Smith and Il. Banks; mates,
John Crasty and Patrick Flanagan; en-
gineers, Albert Calder and Frank Stull;
steward, George E. Todd; mail clerk,
NJ. T. Kelly.
From local rivermen it was ascertained
that the Rowena Lee carried cabin
crew of about 15 officers and a deck
crew numbering 30. Taking these figures
and fair number of passengers taken
on at Cairo and other points, it can
easily be reasoned that at least 60 peo-
pie were on board the boat when the dis
aster occurred.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY JOHN r. JONES,
of Lackawanna county, has prepared
a bill, which Hon. P E. Timlin will
introduce in the legislature this ses
sion. 1t provides for the payment OF
costs by the county in criminal cases
where bail has been forfeited. As the
law now stands there is no provision
for costs when a defendant abscOnds,
unless the bondsman is proceeded
against. 1t happens every term OF
criminal court that several witnesses
who testified before the alderman and
grand jury in the preceding stages OF
the case cannot get a cent for all their
trouble because the defendant does
not appear for trial when the case is
called.

A DECISION that will have a wide
spread effect has just been handed
down bv the Mexican county court,
and there will be much uneasiness
until there is final decision by the
higher court Some of the boroughs
have taken advantage of the act of
A 2ril 10, 1875, which enables boroughs
throughout the state to levy special
light and water tax, the purpose of
the levy being the erection Of electric
light works, etc. 1t will be interest.
ing to the people of these boroughs tC
know that the opinion of Judge M or,
risOn, of Mexican county, decides that
the act of 1875, under which said
taxes were collected, is nnconstitu.
tional. This will no doubt cause
much uneasiness among the bonds
men and holders of Judgment against
the boroughs that have adopted the
act. This act, however, does not
apply to Shenandoah, as the special
water tax in this town is made under
the Act of 1851.

A very simple test to determine
whether your Kidneys or Bladder are
diseased is to put some of your urine in
a glass tumbler and let 1t stand "A
hours; If il has a sediment or a cloudy,
ropy OF stringy appearance, if it is pale
or discolored, you do not need a ply.
sician TO tell you that you are in q
dangerous condition. DIR. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy speedily cures
such serious symptoms as pain in the
back, inability to hold urine, burning
scalding pain in passing it. Frequent
desire to urinate especially at night,
the staining of linen by your urine and
all unpleasant and dangerous effects
produced on the system by the use Of
wbiskey and beer.
By a searching investigation It was
found that over 81 per cent of the
people who sent for a sample bottle
were so much benefited by its use that
they purchased large sized bottle of
their druggist, which in most cases
cured them, while in some rare in-
stances it took as many as two or even
three bottles to effect permanent cure.
