THE twenty-nineth day OF January
was a day Of relaxation in the United
States Senate. The serious business
OF the day was laid aside, and Senators
occupied their leisure in comparing
notes upon the Revolution. They went
over the historic ground Of Lexington
and Concord; they marched with the
farmers of New York, New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, and Connecticut to the
ensanguined plains of Saratoga; they
camped with the ragged veterans Of
Washington at Valley Forge; they hid
with Marion in the swamps OF the
Carolinas; they reviewed the seige of
Yorktown, and some of them at least
gloated over the surrender Of Corn
wallis; they sailed the seas with our
priveteers; they walked the deck with
Paul Jones. The whole Senate cham
Der was filled with the atmosphere of
the Revolution. Senator Hoar sug-
gested that a discussion of the Revo-
luton was a most effective argument
against the whole Philippine business.
With this opinion Senator Tillman OF
South Carolina heartily conceded.
The i%mperialists did not appear to en-
JOY this rehearsal Of history: they were
about as comfortable during the dis
cussion as a cat In a marsh. They
wore not sure that the recital OF the
deeds OF these anarchists of one hum
dred and twenty-five years ago. who
rejected the benevolent assimilation
OF the British Empire, and walloped
the stufin' out Of the Imperiallst army
of England and Its Hessian allies, was
not treason. II any Senator had
offered TO read the Declaration OF In.
dependence, Senator Lodge would have
moved his immediate expulsion for
giving aid and comfort to the enemy
In the field. Altogether, 1t was a
field day for United States history; II
was time we'll spent, II it did make
Senator Lodge uncomfortable.

The Postofice Department seems to
have determined so far as possible to
limit the circulation of Mr.. Bryan's
Commoner. 1t permits no man, as we
understand it, to subscribe for that
paper and have it sem to a neighbor
without paying extra postage. Fer
haps it does not permit a gentleman to
borrow the money with which to sub
scribe for it. A censorship of the
press goes hand in hand with imperial
ism. Neither is compatible with a
free government.

THEY have had a very spectacular
time in South Africa. Lord Kitchener
had at ore time and another sent
several of bis ablest generals to catch
DeWet. Metheune, Knox and French
had all tried their had at it, and each
had come to grief. Kitchener resolved
to take the matter in hand personally
and make an end of the sturdy Boer
patriot. So he gathered together
armored trains, barbed wire and
sufficient men to make a ring fifty
miles In circumference. Part of the
line was patroled by armored trains,
and most of it appears to have been
e%ntrenched. Then the circus com
menced. The naval guns roared, the
pom-pom doomed, Maxims ratified and
musketry sputtered. The armored
trains rumbled-the dispatch did not
state whether they had any Boer wo-
men and children aboard to protect
their inmates from Boer marksmen.
There weer several hours of din and
confusion, illuminated by search lights
for the affair took place at night, until
at last the Beers got scared and ran
over a regiment Of British lighthouse
and went on their way. DeWet
escaped; so also did Kitchener, There
vas plenty of noise, an overplus OF
fireworks, but not any great amount of
war about the maneuver. The net
result seems to have been a few broken
down horses, a few dead Beers, a lot
of useless barbed wire, a few prisoners
and a further demand for a fresh sup
ply of sticking-plaster for Lord Kitch-
ener's military reputation. As q pyro-
technic display the affair was a howl
ing success. II it could be borrowed
for the Worlds Fair, about which we
hear occasionally through the St.
Louis papers, it would prove a great
attraction.

THE Bonnie Terre Star thinks there
is a scheme afoot by which Dave
Francis is to reach the Senate. 1t
seems to us but fair that each candi-
date for the Legislature should define
his position, so that people may vote
intelligently. There is a suggestion
that each voter at the primary be per-
mitted to record his choice, and the
result be considered binding upon the
representative.

Disaster In Sicily Not Exaggerated.

Rome, September 81. 7.-Advices received
from Sicily this evening show that tho
tempest that worked such damage in
that island is still raging. Details of
the storm multiply the number of deaths.
On the east coast $40 bodies have been
recovered and the sea continues To de-
velop corpses which were swept down by
the torrents from the interior. 1t is esti-
mated that 500 bodies have already been
recovered. Three hundred lives were
lost at Modica. The churches there ara
filled with dead and the cemeteries are
wastes OF mud, rendering the interment
of the bodies of the victims impossible.
Salvage operations continue, troops and
peasants working without intermission.
Catania, Sicily, September 27.-The
whole country about Mount Aetna has
suffered greatly. Mount Aetna is send
ing up thick columns of steam from the
vicinity of the scene of the eruption of
1892.
Two fresh craters have opened on
Stromboli since September 18th.
London, September 27.-A special dis
patch from Rome, after confirming the
reports that Stromboli has been in full
eruption for some time, says:
The night scene is grand, but terrify-
ing. Lava streamed down the mountain
sides seawards, while huge b0ulders
were hurled from the crater to great
height, falling into the sea fully two and
half miles from the shore.
The director of the observatory at
Mount Aetna says there has been no
earthquake in Sicily, but that probably
there has been submarine eruption be-
tween Stroniboli and Sicily.

One person in every four has a weak heart.
Unless promptly treated weak heart will
easily become diseased heart. A little extra
strain from any cause is sufficient to bring on
this deadly malady, the most common cause
of sudden death. Dr. Miles Heart Cure will
tone up the hearts action, enrich the blood
and improve the circulation.
,"My trouble began with catarrh and have
always supposed it caused the trouble have
experienced with my hear. had the usual
symptoms of sleeplessness, lost appetite, CON
stipation, palpitation of the heart, shortness
OF breath and pain around the heart and un-
der left arm. My mother suffered in the same
way and l suppose mine was an inherited
tendency. At one time l was in agony l
suffered SO severely and became SO weak
that my doctors said l could not live thirty
days. AT this time | had not slept over two
hours night on account of nervousness.
The least exercise, such as walking about,
woul bring on palpitation and hutteYinp of
the heart so severe that would have to give
up everything and rest. Nerve and Liver
