Early this morning poor Thomas S.
Douglas, one OF the most trusted
employees in the firm of w. G..
Irwin e. Co., tried to take his life,
while his mind was entirely un-
balanced, through grief over the
death Of his beloved wife who passt d
away few weeks ago in San Fran

spondent since he received ths SD
news, which caused him to take the
rash step. He was taken to the

news that the accident msy not
prove fatal will be pleasing to the

THE GOVERNORS APPOINT
MENTS.

Many of the Independent Senators
are under the impression that if the ap-
pointments of the Governor should not
meet with the their consent the right
to make other appointments will fall
into their hands. How such an erron-
eous idea has entered their heads is
difficult to understand. Delegate Will
cox has tried to explain too that even if
the whole Senate should decline to ap-
prove of the appointments of the Gov
ernor nothing can compel him to put
into office any man desired by the Sen =
ate. The Republican Senators will Of
course, consent to the appointments
sent to the Senate and there are some
of the Independents sensible enough
to understand the futility of throwing
down the Governors appointees and
have them replaced by men perhaps
still more Objectionable to them than
those now in office. Furthermore, :Ee
Governor can dismiss his appointees
without any reference to the Senate
and it is safe to say that as soon as
the Senate is prorogued he would fire
out" the Senate's appointees and rein
state his own men to hold Office until
the next Senate convenes about two
years hence.

If good reasons are advanced for the
removal of any of the officials appoint
ed by the Governor the consent of the
Senators should be withheld but we
fear that the only reason why the In
dependents appear hostile towards
present incumbents is that they are

any they have would be of the same
frivolous nature as those certain

ly objected to having petitions in

which the petitions against the Dis

to insinuate that the petitions
were frauds. Any legislator has 3
right TO present petitions and they
should be received with courtesy
and decency. The honorable gen.
tleman who introduced tho petitions
had undoubtedly not gone around
personally getting signatures for
the petitions. He simply presented
as it was his right and duty to do.

WHAT'S IN A NAME?
(BsnSon's Plaster Is Pains Mastsr)

In the days of wild cat money in the
West, the Ames shovels were used az Cur,
rency. They We're as stable as gold; their
price did not vary cent in twenty wears
The very name of Oliver Ames & Son. was
synonym for honesty. 1t was current all
over the world.
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is good" plaster does
not describe it; ii is the best possible plaster.
For every disease in which an external rem.
edy is available, Bensons Plaster is used
almost as a matter of course.
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where other modes of treatment are
either exasperatingly slow or have n, good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds, lumhago.
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
etc., are at once benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna
plasters have none of the curative virtues
of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians
and druggists have commended Benson's
Plaster as remedy in which the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in
comparative test with other plasters, Ben
sons has received .tJty,f0e highest atoards.
Beware of substitutes and cheap limitations.
For sale by all druggists or we will pre-
pay postage on any number ordered in the
United States on receipt of Csc. each.

Loan of $I7o Brings Him ST., 900, 600.

Oil strikes in California are making
poor men miliouaires as in the old DAYS
in Pennsylvania. One of the strangest
OF these freaks OF fortune came to John
A. Bunting, former freight brakeman
on the Southern Pacific road, who has
just order, d a $50 900 private car.
Ten years ago Bunting was keeper OF
a railroad watertank on The desert near
Tucson. Ariz Then he was advanced
and finally became freight brakeman.
He loaned a friend $40 and took as
collateral a watch and mortgage on
forty acres Of land in Kern county. The
friend did not pay, SO Bunting sold the
watch and fore closed the mortgage on
the land. He tried to sell the land, but
c. ud not get anything tor it. Recently
oil was struck near his place. He re
signed and began to develop his prop
erty. He struck oil and now is rated as
a millionaire.
Bunting went into the office OF General
Manager Fillmore recently and sent in
his card. Fillmore sent back a reply
that he was sorry, but he had no job.
Bunting sent back an answer that he
was not looking for jobs, but wanted to
buy private car Fillmore congratu
lated him and advised him TO order a car
with all the latest improvements, which
would cost him $50, 900. and meanwhile
to rent a car from the Southern Pacific
This he did Bunting has no expensive
tastes except a strong desire to travel in
his own car and to have that car as lux
urous as it is possible to make it, New
York Sun.

LESSON THOUGHTS.

We are brought into the kingdom of
God on earth tor service. God will sup
ply the necessary ability; the responsib i
lty rests with us to employ well the
grace he supplies.
Even the busiest person may yet be a
cumberer, usefulness only giving value
to activity. The humblest effort that
accomplshes some go"d is worth more
than the biggest show Of energy tina
serves no useful or worthy purpose.
SELECTIONS.
A man who is useless in the kingdom
OF God may console himself by thinking
that at any rate he does no harm, but ev-
cry dead weight holds back the wheels.
Remember now and always, that life
is no idle dream, but a solemn reality
based on and encompassed by eternity.
Find out your task; stand to it; the night
cometh when no man can work.
Not what you can, might, would, will
do, is the test Of character, but what you
have done and are doing. Dreams of the
golden future are only little mist clouds
which glance of the risen sun will dissi-
pate in thin air.
m From it's very inaction, idleness ulti-
ately becomes the most active cause of
evil, as palsy is more to be dreaded than
a fever. The Turks have a proverb
which says, 1.-THE Devil tempts all other
men, but idle men tempt the Devil"
It is easy, by planning, to cheat your
self into inactivity. Horace Mann said
that he had never read anything about
the resolutions OF the disciples but
great deal about the acts of the apostles
There is no easy task that may not be
made hard by leaving Christ out of it
There is no hard task but may be made
easy by getting his aid.
SUGGESTED HYMNS.
True, hearted whole-hearted
Work, for time is flying.
HaIkt the voice of Jesus crying
Nc thing but leaves.
Ho! reapers of lifes harvest
Work, for The night is coming.

PRICES ARE
Notice of Increases in Structural Iron
and Steel Materials.

Local manufacturers of structural iron
and steel materials were yesterday advised
OF an increase in trade quotations on
beams, channels, plates and angles. The
prices on beams Will be increased 81 a ton;
those on plates 50 a ton and on angles 81 a
ton. The announcement was made by tele-
phone and not in the usual manner Of tele-
graphic advices. The advance is thought to
be the result of the consolidation of the
steel interests. A dispatch from Pittsburg
states that on April 10 the last meeting OF
eleven plate-producing firms will be held in
New York for the purpose of revising pool
quotations. After the meeting ii is said the
prices will be largely controlled by the ac-
ton of the United States Steel Corporation,
which has absorbed the majority of the
plants embraced in the plate pool.
The rise is not thought to be sufficient to
have any material effect upon the building
industries which use the products largely.
Regarding the increase John l.. Ketcham,
of the Brown-Ketcham Company, of this
city, said last night:
II do not think there will be any great
Increase. such as there was several years
ago. 1t seems to me TO be just a healthy
growth of industry which comes in the
spring. There is nothing alarming i'm the
rise. / do not think il will injure the build
ing industries. 1t has been my experience
that people build more when prices are up
than when they are down."

The DincrentiaI Rate Question.

After a long session at New York, the
passenger committee of the Trunk Line
Association failed yesterday to reach an
agreement on the question of adjusting
the differential rate between New York
and Chicago west-bound. The proposition
under discussion was to abolish all second
class rates and to make the fare over all
differential lines to Chicago SIS. Hereto
fore the Erie has been charging SIS. while
the West Shore, the Lackawanna, the Lee
high Valley and other differential lines
charged only $17. The equalization of these
rates was proposed by the Erie Railroad.
In the belief that II would result in an In
crease of earnings. This question had been
under consideration for some time. The
vote yesterday showed a majority in favor
OF the proposed change, but as under the
rules of the Trunk Line Association the vote
had to be unanimous in order 10 make a
rule effective, this proposition will have to
go to arbitration. The New York Central,
the Lackawanna, the Chesapeake IL Ohio,
and the Pennsylvania, voted in favor of
the change, and the Baltimore, the Jersey
Central. the West Shore and the Reading
voted against il. The arbitrators have not
yet been agreed upon.
j. +. Goddard, commissioner of the as
ISOLATION, Will arbitrate a protest entered
by Western railroads against the granting
of differential rates TO the Pennsylvania
Erie Passenger Traffic combination, via
Akron, o., which have been requested by
Passenger Agent Ford, of the Pennsyl-
vania.
The combination was formed especially
for traffic to the Buffalo exposition.
