eed of Suffering from Rheuma-

No Need of Suffering from Rheuma-
tism.
1t Is mistake to allow anyone 20
suffer from rheumatism as the pain
can always be relieved, and in most
cases cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Liniment. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost 1t makes
sleep and rest possible. Even in cases
of long standing this liniment should
be used on account of the relief which
1t affords. Do not be discouraged I'M
til you have given it trial. For sale

SATISFIED AGAIN
Kinsella at Least Temporarily
Reconciled to Letting Har-

SEXTON HOME FROM TOUR
Billy Earl, Wisconsin League Of
fetal Added to the Umpir-
ing Staff.

President M H. Sexton of the Three
Springfield, where he witnessed the
raising of the championship pennant
which the Springfield aggregation flung
TO the breezes last Monday. He re-
ports that the affair came off in proper
style. During his visit there he had a
talk with Kinsella about the Hardin
matter, and Dick stated that he was
satisfied with the ruling if Mr. Sexton
thought it was correct in every way.
He seemed to have the impression that
the president made the ruling without
thinking whether it was right or wrong.
1t will be remembered that Kinsella
expressed himself as satisfied with
Rock Islands claim TO Hardin some
time before, and that he only became
dissatisfied when Hardin was instru-
mental in taking several games from
him. Once more he is satisfied and
probably will remain so until Hardin
wins some more games from his team.
President Sexton reports that condi-
tons in the southern end of the circuit
are very good, especially at Decatur,
where the money which they secured
from the sale of three of their players
has put them well on their feet tinan-
cially.
Adds Fifth Umpire.
A fifth umpire has been added to the
staff of Indicator holders of the league,
Billy EARL being the latest recruit.
EARL comes from the Observation-Disclosures
league, where he earned a good reputa-
ton. He will commence work at once,
having been assigned to work with
Hollingsworth i'll Davenport today.
He will be kept in action as much as
possible, the double umpire system be-
ing used where two teams are in a
close race or where there is any con-
siderable feeling between teams or
cities.

THE BUYING OF GOLD.

The new gold of tho world was large
ly bought last year by the Bank OF
France, which built up a hoard of gold
second only TO the unprecedented gold
holdings of the u. S. National Treas
ury. The National Bank of Germany
at Berlin was keen competitor for
some of the gold. and between the two
the most of the South African gold and
the Australian gold was bought in.
But now the Bank Of England is in
the market, buying gold. 1t bought all
the Cape gold that was offered last
week, and was expecting to buy the
$5,000,000 of new gold from the Cape
that would be offered this week.
This contest for gold appears 20 have
its political side the most weighty. The
German Governments financial bills
are not acceptable to tho Reichstag,
which defeated its proposition for a
duty or tax on inberitances. Then the
Government was defeated in its oppo-
sition to tax on stocks and bonds, the
Reichstag voting, 2o3 to 155, for suca
tax.
Gold exports from this country TO
Germany arc now projected. the

STOPPING TILE SLAUGHTER.

Good progress is making in the East
in abrogating "the bloody Fourth y
so prevalent heretofore in the cclebra-
tions Of Independence Day in this coun-
try. The repeated publication of lists
OF the dead, the wounded, and the
manned, in uproarious, noisy celebra-
tions, have undoubtedly led the public
mind to view them with horror, and
moro and more the communities are ar.
raging themselves against the danger
Gus hilarlty involved in shooting, bomb
throwing, and explosions.
A sample Of the sort Of exhibit that
is being made in the advocacy of ga
sane celebration of the Fourth of
July, is the following from the AT
lantic Monthly:
it is evident from the comments of the
press on the present evils Of our Fourth
or July that there Is urgent need of a
deflnlt lie control and wise direction OF the
popular use OF this holiday. The roll OF
dead and wounded for the last ten years,
as complied by the Chicago Tribune, ls
eloquent in Its warning The figures tell
their own story of an insensate and rccR-
less abuse OF the days privileges:

unanimous consent idea.
THE JORDAN DRowN1NGs.

| The deplorable drowning OF two boys
in slough of the Jordan reminds
the public anew of the perils Of that
stream and its surplus waters. A
great many boys have lost their lives
in the Jordan. And in n great per-
centage of the cases, there seemed rcn-
SON to suppose. that by tho proper pre-
cautions tho lives could have been
saved.
It is we'll known 70 those who have
charge Of bathing resorts, on rivers,
lakes and the seacoast, that persons
who are apparently drowned can be re-
suscitated by skillful treatment. IL
should be the province Of the schools
to give instruction in that treatment.
In the case of the Johnson boys, who
were drowned in a Jordan slough
on Thursday, il would seem rs though
resuscitation might have been possible
if the lads could have had skilled hand
ling on their being brought out of the
water. And here is found the advan-
tage of early and expert teaching of
what to do in cases of this kind, where
the case of drowning is so immediate
y recent.
Another suggestion might not be out
of place That is that the city might
see TO the providing of several swim
ming holes' in the Jordan and in such
sloughs as live water is found Such
places should be cleared of all traps
like the bed spring which caught and
held the older johnson boy fast and
helpless when he jumped in TO the aid
of his brother And "dcad' sloughs
should be warned against and boys kept
out of them 1t would not cost much
for the city to prepare some good and
safe places for the boys to learn to
swim in They ought to learn to swim,
and it is impossible to keep thom from
trying to learn. They ought not to be
kept from it. But the city, or some
ought to see that the "try"
should be rendered as absolutely safe
as human foresight and care can make

sibly war, and wants TO be prepared for
1t with large reserves Of gold; for gold
is the great war metal, the one power
which is wholly Indispensable in mod
orn warfare. But those fnanciers who
are persuaded that the gold they are
accumulating, apparently and almost
avowedly for war purposes, have
sharper scent for that war than is
given 20 ordinary mortals; for Of all
tho Improbable things of great moment
in the near future, the improba ability
of war seems about the greatest.

THEFTs OF RARE OBJECTS.

| Not long ago a report came from
Utica, New York, that burglar broke
into the public library there, and MAX
| ing his way to a case of rare coins IN
the main room, forced open the glass
| front and stole over five hundred of the
coins, selecting the most valuable ones
| in the collection. The worst of it was,
that these coins had been lent to the
| library by a citizen of Utica, who was
quite unable to put a value on the
coins when he found that they had been
stolen. Many of them were extremely
rare, and could not be replaced with
out lot of time and expense. Some
probably could not be replaced at all.
which he had been collecting for many
years Among those stolen were forty
eight American 'hard times coins
from 1887 to 1878, fifty silver and
bronze Greek and Roman coins of vari~
Gus dates, bronze medals Of the time
of Alexander the Great, and of ancient
Utica and Syracuse, three hundHed
bronze coins. Greek, Roman and Syrian,
from 10 B. c. TO 80 A. D., and a
large number of Columbian Exposition
medals.
This puts us in mind of an equally
ruthless and dastardly robbery in this
city some time back. A gentleman had
in his house n number of rare coins
of the old Deseret coinage. These were
extremely scarce specimens and valu-
able; somo Of them absolutely impos
slble to replace, and all of them so
scarce that duplicates of them could
be had only by extended search and
an expenditure of good deal Of money.
1t was miserable robbery-much
worse in fact. than ordinary stealing;
because one who steals ordinary things,
simply gets away with valuables that
can usually be replaced without much
trouble. But to steal things of addi-
tional value because they cannot be
replaced, is an additional outrage. 1t
is pity that some cruel and unusual
punishment cannot be executed upon
pGIooDo lUtlLS lInc Lh'5c, VI
objects so valuable and so hard, if not
impossible. TO replace, One guilty of
such theft must not only be depraved
morally in an unusual degree of de-
pravity, but in an extraordinary degree
of cultured depravity and artistic
avaricious rascality.
1t is a pity that an immediate
identification mark could not he put
upon such thieves, so that they would

every man S hand be against them, as
