Poisoned by strange Insect.

Mendon, Mich, March. Oscar
Newasky, living seven miles east of here,
was stung by a strange insect unlike
anything known in this region, and to-
day the doctors fear he will not recover.
He was stung on the cheek and now bis
neck and shoulders are terribly swollen
and the poison symptoms are declared
to be new to medical science. Newasky
went into the loft of his barn to cut hay
to feed his stock, when he suddenly re-
ceived painful sting on the left cheek
Examination of the loft revealed bug
two and half inches long, quartered IL
the hay. The insect has long wings,
its legs are double jointed, with a tendency
to curl or bow. The head, which is the
strangest part of the insect, is fully an
inch in diameter, covered with fuzz
partly covering long bill like of that o.
some gigantic mosquito.

HILL. PARKER AND BRYAN.

d. b. Hills presidential stock has
gone up several points in Albany within
the past forty-eight hours. For the
first time there are symptoms of dis
enlargement among the Parker BOOM
ers, who greatly outnumber the Hill
boomers, but are less experienced in
subterranean politics.
Mr.. Hills position as the leader OF
the sound money movement to over
throw Col. Bryan is said to been efiec-
lively established. Democrats there
Parker as well as Hill 1emocrats-agree
that nothing short of a political reyolu-
ton can despoil Hill Of the immense
party advantages he has gained while
his opponents have been slumbering.
Information said to be reliable now in
the possession of Parker's friends estab-
fishes the fact that the machine leaders
of New York and Indiana have pledged
those States to Hill. Judge Parker is
himself aware of the situation. 1t is
his present policy to remain absolutely
passive with respect to all changes in
the presidential outlook. He will not
refuse the democratic nomination for the
presidency if it is rendered to him with
su bstartial unanimity, platform OF
principles satisfactory to conservative
commercial and financial interests OF
the country having first been adopted.
Judge Parker's very strong opinions on
the subject of William j. Bryan do not
coincide with those of Hill. Parker is
not in favor of sound-money fight on
Bryan in Nebraska and throughout the
South and West. 1t may be said posi-
lively that Parker is at odds with the or
GAMERS of this movement. He does not
believe in drastic policy of dealing with
the Nebraskan. He is of the opinion
that Bryan should be treated with great
consideration.
1t may be authoritatively stated that
Judge Parker will not be the democratic
candidate for President unless he is sup
ported by Bryan. He will reject nomi-
nation rendered to him by any faction.
1t may be added that Parker does not ex-
pect the nomination to be rendered to
him ifthe war against Bryan is continued.
He thinks that Bryan will win in such a
way by an overwhelming majority and be
nominated for the presidency himself.
He quoted by friendas saying: "Bry-
an is sure to be nominated third time
if the effort to drive him out Of the party
is continued to the end.

A GOOD THING.

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton of DIR. A. Boschee, celebrated Ger

be one of the most fortunate discoveries
in Medicine. 1t quickly cures Coughs,
Colds and all Lung troubles of the sever
est nature, removing, as it does, the
cause of the affection and leaving the
parts in a strong and healthy condition.
1t is not an experimental medicine, but
has stood the test of years, giving salts
faction in every case, which its rapidly
increasing sale every season confirms.
Two million bottles sold annually. Bos-
chee's German Syrup was introduced in
the United States in 1868, and is now
sold in every town and village in the civ
ilized world. Three doses will relieve
any ordinary cough. Price % and 10 cts.

Clue to the Burdick Murder Myster,

Clue TO the burutck MurAcr Wy osCNy'
Buffalo, N. Y, March 5.--There was
an unusual scene of activity about police
headquarters and the district attorneys
Office this morning, and rumors have it
that before noon the authorities will
have placed under arrest the murderer
of Edwin L. Burdick. One of the de-
tectives on the case said this morning;
District Attorney Coatesworth believes
he knows who murdered Burdick. He
has sufficient evidence to cause him to
hold this belief and he is hopeful OF get
ting evidence he deems ample to war
rant arrest and conviction. He believes
the murderer was alone with Burdick in
the room when the crime was committed.
He is satisfied, also, as to whether it was
woman or man, and he knows pre-
cisely where the person may be found at
any time. Other than this can say
nothing" Early this morning District
Attorney Coatesworth was closeted in
his private Office with well known
business man whose home is near the
| Burdick home. After the conference was
oyerit was said that the caller had given
| to Mr.. Coatesworth an important clue.
The police are working on clue which
they hope will lead to the arrest of the
woman who was seen in Ashland avenue
by Patroiman Myers at l o'clock on FRI
day morning, the day on which Burdick
body was discovered. a second clue
that was traced last night came through
a member of the Buffalo Club. He told
the authorities of being on his way home
after II o'clock last Thursday night. As
he neared his house he saw woman
who seemed to be acting peculiarly. She
came near and saw him, started and
turned to him. 81 am lost" she said,

brought me here" she said, pointing t.
the direction from whence she came
where there was no street car line. Th'
man escorted her to the nearest car line
A car was coming and the man left hel
at the corner. The authorities feel thai
the section where she was seen was much
too far from the Burdick house for hel
to get there and commit the murder be-
tween 1850 o'clock and midnight.

On THE EVE of the adjournment OF
Congress the republican leaders recog-
nizing the many sins of omission they
had committed, talked out in meeting
and an effort was made by some of them
10 place the blame where 1T belong
ed. Mr.. Elkins was quite severe on his
associates, as will be seen by the follow
ing synopsis of his speech made in the
Senate on Tuesday night. Mr.. Elkins
said
"The republican party is re
sponsible for the condition OF affairs
in the Senate. For fourteen weeks
a majority of the Senate has been kept
from voting on the statehood bill. The
Aldrich bill, the Philippine bill and the
treaties have been defeated by the
filbuster against the statehood bill. The
republican party has been false to
its solemn pledges in three sue
cessiye platforms.
He referred to the activity OF Senator
Aldrich in his leadership to accomplish
the defeat of the statehood bill and said t:
''While doing so he was digging the
grave of the currency legislation and the
other important measures. Every time
spadeiul of earth was thrown on the
statehood bill there was one put on the
Aldrich bill. This is the first time
in the history of the republican party,
that it resorted to filibustering. | am
not ashamed to be in the camp o. the
democrats when they were for so just a
measure as the statehood bill. The
minority opposing statehood in this
Senate is responsible for all these
failures and these disasters that are over
taking us and causing us so many re-
gretfnl tears at this moment. 1t was
not possible at the last moment to thrust
responsibility upon the democrats who
had been minority of the body at all
times and had voted persistently for
propositions advanced from the repu0-
lican side of the chamber. F"
Mr.. Elkins' speech was significant Of a
desire upon the part of the republican
statehood boomers to retain the friend
ship of the democrats for purposes, evil
IDENTIFY, of future combination.
