Found 100000 In Gold.

\ pot of gold, supposed to have
been buried during the civil war and
worth about $4,000, was recently
found in an old spring by poor far
mer. No doubt the discovery brought
him much happiness, but really moth
ing when compared to the happiness
enjoyed by sickly people who have
been restored to health by Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. This sover-
eign remedy is backed by so years of
cures, and is highly endorsed by
many prominent physicians through
out the country. 1t is a specific rem
edy for stomach, liver, kidney and
bowel disorders, such as headache,
heartburn, loss of appetite, indiges-
ton, constipation and biIiousness.

THAT Growing Butchers Bill.

The army appropriation bill as
passed by the senate amounts to a
round 500. DOC. 900. This is about SAC. OOO,-
900 more than the entire expenses of
conducting the federal government in
1850 when we were carrying on Indian
wars; when the country covered the
same territory on the continent that
it does now-Alaska excepted, and
when the population was about one
half what it is now. But the size of
this army appropriation bill is not to
be wondered at, after all. 1t is. to
be sure, more than four times as
much as was annually appropriated
for the army for the six years from
1894 to 1899 inclusive. { is indeed
$40. 100000 more than was appropriate
ed for 1900 to cover the military side
of our war with Spain.
But the war expenditures of coun-
tries once committed to a policy of
aggression and annexation at the eX-
pense of unwilling peoples, who live
a long way off and can only be KILLED
and burned" and made TO want peace
badly" by carrying large armies over
thousands of miles of sea to do it, are
always progressive.
1t was John Bright who said to his
cOuntrymen when they were grumbl-
ing at the big Crimean war budgets:
IF we must kill we must pay the
butchers bill"

sought to have Thomas Il. Flatterly,

and it began to look dubious for Fla
terly, when the widow of President

terly be retained another four years.
President Roosevelt sent Flatterly's
name to the senate. Mrs. Mckinley

The Pope condemned the tribute, pro-

DIR. Croke to Rome to make explana-

matter. On the morning of the day
