Modern Surgery Surpassed.

"While suffering from bad
case of piles consulted physi-
clan who advised me to try a box
of DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve, "
says G. f. Carter, Atlanta, Ga.
81 procured a box and was entire
ly cured. DeWitt's Witch Hazel
-Salve is a splendid cure for piles,
giving relief Instantly, and l
heartily recommend it to all suf-
ferers." Surgery is unnecessary
to cure piles. DeWitt's Witch
Hazel Salve will cure any case.
Cuts, burns, bruises and all 9th
er wounds are also quickly cured
by it. Beware of counterfeits.

George Egolf, son of County
Commissioner A. II. Egolf, was
seriously wounded last Thursday
night by his brother-in-law,
George Smith, near Schellsburg,
Bedford county. Both live with
their families in the same house
and each supposed there was a
burglar down stairs. Both slip
ped from their beds and in the
dim light Smith saw Egolf and
fired with a revolver, the bullet
striking Egolf in the leg.
Nelson Burr, an extensive
property owner, of Binghamton,
n. Y, was ordered to take bath
and purchase a new suit of clothes
by the Board of Health. He says
he took the bath and he got the
new clothes, but objects to wear
ing them, as he says his old ones
are pretty good yet. He was
once before ordered by the Health
Board to take a bath. Burr lives
alone in a large brick block, which
is filed full of old furniture and
oddities, which include his coffin
and grave stone.
The Pennsylvania building at
the Buffalo exposition which, ac-
cording to the figures of the Key
stone commission cost $40, 800 to
build and furnish, has been sold
by the commission for 1885. The
building alone brought S305 and
the furnishings and equipments
were sold for $3.50. The plumb
ing in the building was bought
by the Pennsylvania commission
to the Charleston exposition and
will be used in the new building
in course of erection at the West
Indian exposition.
Benjamin, the 15-year-old son
of Benjamin Evans of Bedford,
went up stairs last Sunday morn
ing for some article of clothing.
To get it, he found it necessary
to remove loaded shotgun lying
on store box. Taking hold of
the gun near the muzzle and
drawing it toward him, the ham
mer was caught on the edge of
the box and the gun was dis
charged. The load entered un-
der the boys chin, and literally
blew his face off, causing death
almost instantly. The family
came to Bedford from Virginia
last spring, and the father is a
miner working at Broadtop.
An exchange prints tne tolloW-
ing which is applicable in every
community. Don't ship a big
box of clothing and provisions
1000 miles away, when there is a
little boy freezing just around the
corner. 1t is right to send help
away, but take care of the desti-
tute at your own doors before 60
ing further away. Don't hesitate
about giving a Presbyterian coat
or a Methodist pair pants to a
Catholic. Give theclothing to the
needy, regardless of the faith OF
his parents or relatives, and you
will have done an act that is com
mendable in the eyes of the Al
mighty.

Republican party as enunciated in the
Philadelphia platform. 1t endorses Nc
Kinleys administration and gives it's un-
qualified assent to the Republican doc
trine that the people are sovereign and
that all power is derived from and be-
longs to the people. 1t declares it's will
lingness to trust to the people the decis-
ion of all political issues. 1t denounces
all attempts to discriminate in favor of
Or against citizens Of Virginia on ac-
count of race or color. 1t protests against
the proposition to confer the right of
suffrage on unworthy persons on account
of the merits or the achievements of
their ancestors as tending to create a
privileged class and discrimination
against others equally worthy. 1t favors
the right of suffrage being left as fixed
by the present Constitution of Virginia

STRIKERS OBEY THE LAW.
Watch Non Union Men Take Their Places
Without Threat or Complaint.
(By the Associated Press.)

Pittsburg, Pa, August 22.-Aside from
the partial equipment of the Star plant
of the American Tin Plate Cmpany. and
the preparation for its immediate resump-
tion of business, there were no special
developments in the strike situation in
this city today, The Amalgamated peo-
pie point with pride to the conduct of
their members in restraining themselves
from violence when they see non -unionists
being marched into the mills to take their
places.
The arrival from the East of thirty-two
non-union men for work in the Star Tin
Plate Wrks, was attended by great ex-
citement, but no disorder. The train was
met by Police Captain John E. Kramer
and squad of twenty-five men who sur
rendered the new workmen and marched
to the mill. Outside the strikers several
hundred in number were in waiting. They
fell in behind and several times attempted
to talk to the men, but the policemen
prevented them. When the works were
reached the non -unionists quickly filed
through the gates, leaving the strikers
on the outside. The violent acts that
had been anticipated did not materialize
Not a hiss or jeer was heard from the
time the police-protected party got out Of

this town, and although it is young in
years, il is making marvellous progress
and is fast becoming one of the best of
the smaller markets. The market this
season is equipped with two large and
amply commodiOus warehouses and many
buyers, representing the principal firms
OF this and other States. The Banner
warehouse owned and operated by Cheat
ham Bros, is a very popular warehouse
and its management is attracting great
deal of leaf tobacco. They have built up a
large business which they justly merit by
reason of its able management. Meadows

house this year. The proprietors are we'll
known and experienced tobacco men, ac
tive, honest, clever, and are using
every inducement possible to build up the
market. Both will sell large amount of
tobacco during the season.
The break last Friday was an unusually
large one and possibly the largest ever
seen on this market in August. The ave"
ages were from to cents. and gave
entire satisfaction. The grades are con-
sidered very high and the farmers went
OFF home well pleased.
