A CAMPAIGN DODGE.
The Washington correspondent of the Bos
ton Advertiser gives some interesting infor
mation concerning the operations of the
Democratic congressional campaign commit
tee. One of the strong points which the
committee will try to make is upon two bills
which failed to become law, namely, the
Northern Pacific forfeiture bill and the bill
repealing the timber culture pre-emption and
desert land laws. The whole blame for the
failure of these measures is to be placed up
on the shoulders of the senate, and the at
tention of the 300,000 members of labor or
ganizations who petitioned for the passage
of acts of this kind is to be drawn to the al
leged facts.
But this little scheme may not work very
successfully. On the day the senate ad
journed Mr. Plumb, on behalf of the senate
conferees on the repeal of the pre-emption
act, made the following statement:
At the meeting preceding the last one held
by the conferees the senate conferees agreed
to yield absolutely the provision protecting
entries in the hands of innocent purchasers
for value. Before that time thev had agreed
to yield bo far as to confirm only suon entries
as were in the hands of persons who held 640
acres of land or less, and subsequently ten
dered a reduction of that amount "to 320
acres, so es to cut out all possible chance of
entries being confirmed in the hands of per
sons who had employed others to make'en
tries for them, such as cattle syndicates and
so on. That being rejected, they finally and
at the last conference agreed to yield the
whole provision and only ask the house to
agree that, where fraud was alleged as hav
ing entered into an entry of public lands, the
question might be sent to the courts for trial,
like any other issue involving property or
other interests. That the house conferees
declined to accede to. They finally also de
clined to sign a report setting forth the point
of disagreement, so that it was out of the
power of the senate conferees to report in the
usual formal way to the senate what had oc
curred; and hence it seemed proper that this
statement should be made in justification of
the senate conferees on this very important
subject, and for the purpose of showing that
they at least were not responsible for the
failure of a bill repeal, the pre-emption and
timber culture laws being passed at this ses
sion of congress.
With these facts on record the Democrats
will not be able to make much "campaign
thunder' out of the matter.
EDITOKIAti NOTES.
We print this morning the "call" of the
Republican State convention which is to be
held at Hartford next month. It will be an
important meeting.
The contest between the labor organiza
tions in New York city grows more and
more interesting and significant. We do not
see how the unions can afford to be beaten,
or the Knights either.
The Chicago Herald coldly remarks that
some of the anarchists who are now the re'
cipients of flowers and bouquets will soon be
presented with a forget-me-knot, which will
be worn for a few moments nnder the left ear.
The hack drivers of Philadelphia, baoked
by the Undertakers' and Funeral Directors'
association, and the Sabbath association, are
working for the abolition of Sunday funerals.
This Bhows their progress: On the first Sun
day in June there were forty-six funerals in
Philadelphia, twenty-five on the first Sunday
in July, and only three on August 1. Efforts
are being made by the hackmen to have the
cemeteries closed on Sundays.
This is a great time for unions, leagues,
associations and societies. The Hotel and
Saloon-keepers' union, the German Saloon
keepers' association, the Progressive Liquor
Dealers and Brewers' league, the Brewers
and Bottlers' Benevolent association, and
the Saloon-keepers and Retail Liquor Deal
ers' society of Philadelphia, having a total
membership of over ten thousand, are con
solidating for political purposes.
A table prepared by the United States
consul at Mannheim shows how our export
trade in slaughtered meats (mainly pork) has
been affected by German legislation. There
were imported into Germany in 1880, from
America, 17,608,000 kilograms of slaughtered
meats. In the following year the amount
imported was only 401,700 kilograms, while
in the five years, 1881-5, the total amount
was only 2,753,400 kilograms. It was shown
long ago that the cause assigned for exclu
sion the alleged infection of American pork
sith trichinae was not the real cause. Our
consuls' reports frequently contain proof that
the protected pork of Germany is not free
from these parasites.
For the past two or three years Europe
has been troubled with forged Bank of En
gland notes executed in a style defying de
tection, even by the most experienced. From
Paris, Copenhagen, yienna, Berlin, Milan,
Borne, all the towns of the south of France,
frequent complaints have been made by the
victims of these frauds. . It is evident that
the forgers have either access to the bank
paper or have found means of copying it ex
actly, for the strictest comparison between
the real and forged notes fails to show any
difference in the water mark or quality of
the paper; and, in fact, high authorities in
the Bank of England say that it is impossi
ble to detect the difference except by signs
and numbers known only to themselves.
Brooklyn's health commissioner has begun
in that city a beneficent and thorough system
of medical inspection and relief in the tene
ment house districs, with special reference to
the diseases of infants during the heated
season. Ten physicians have been appointed,
each assigned to a special locality, who are
instructed to search for sick children needing
attention and to care for them, furnishing
medicine gratuitously where parents are un
able to pay for it,- ani at a reduced price to
thoge who can. They are to note the condi
tion of premises and report where sanitary
improvements are needed, give advice as to
healthful manner of living, urge parents to
take their children into the fresh air as much
as possible and give orders on the diet dis-
pensaries for proper food when it cannot be
obtained otherwise.
An English paper tells an anecdote of an
American lady who was invited by the Prince
and Princess of Wales to a garden party, ex
cusing herself from attending on the ground
of a previous engagement, and it sneers at
the American lady for not knowing that
royal invitations in England are commands.
This," says Vanity Fair, "is all rubbish.
The only royal invitations that are commands
are those of the sovereign herself. Neither
the invitations of the Prince of Wales, nor
those of the Duke of Teck, or Prince Henry
ox Sat ten berg are commands' in any sense
of the word. The sovereign alone can com
mand her subjects on their allegiance, and
she can only command her own subjects.
Her power of command does not extend to
an American or any other foreigner."
The situation of affairs at Peabody, Mas
sachusetts, is well calculated to make Rood
citizens thoughtful. There was ' trouble
there over some "non-union" men, and a
pnblio meeting was called Sunday in the
Town hall at 4:30, notices having been read
in the churches, to condemn mob rule and
mre the authorities of support in main
taining order and protecting life and proper
ty. No clap of thunder from a clear sky
ever startled and shocked the community
more than the fact that this meeting, by an
overwhelming vote, declared in favor of mob
rule. Resolutions favoring the suppression of
lawless acts were offered and voted down by
a viva voce vote of more than two to one.
In the evening a private meeting of the Law
and Order league was held and arrangements
made to subdue any attempt at violence.
The Montana mission.
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
Knowing many of your subscribers
desirous to contribute to the outfit of
the
Montana mission, will you allow an answer
to be sent these inquiring friends!
As to the time or x)r. Williams, tne medi
cal missionary's departure for Montana, she
writes: "I must leave early in (September,
and ask that every article provided for the
mission be consecrated by individual prayer
for the teacher and taught as co-workers."
To the churches of this city and to individ
uals, the Woman's Indian association wishes
to say their work is nndenominational. Why
cannot the church of Christ in New Haven
unite in building a "log cabin!"
A few hundred dollars is all
that is needed. It is a great thing for the
association to ask that the Missionaries'
Home may be made permanent ; that her
work be not hindered by "agency" influences
or she be removed from quarters, which, at
any time, may be requested for government
use.
'The Hartford Cottage" in another part
of the West is already occupied by an Indian
couple, who are pattern householders. Will
not New Haven be the first in sending a med
ical missionary to the red men, provide the
means to illustrate the blessings of civiliza
tion in a Christian home! Here Indian girls
are to learn how to prepare wholesome food,
to sweep, wash and iron and all otner House
hold duties, and in returning to their people
carry with them something of the better
lite.
To simply meet the demands of the case
necessitates the request that the doctor's of
fice, kitohen and chamber be comfortably
fitted up. To the office savages seeking for
tidings from the Great Spirit and the aid the
helping hand of a physician offers will surely
come. Let them behold in all they see how
Christians love and care for the messenger of
their King. As the medical woman must
take the place of the medicine man, Miss
Williams must meet dire superstition with
more than human skill, mingling the great
physician's balm for every wound with every
act of mercy tor tne body. Througn tne no
erality and solisitation of a prominent citizen

How can the doctor visit patients widely

There are several stories related by the
court chaplain respecting the eccentricities
of the Duke of Cambridge, who would give
vent quite loudly to the thoughts current in
his mind dnring divine service. When the
clergyman said, "Let ns pray," the Duke ad
ded audibly, "With all my heart." On
another occasion, as we have heard, he said,
"Why the devil shouldn't we!" Once, as the
unfortunate curate was reading the story of
Zaccheus, "Behold, the half of my goods I
give to the poor," the Duke astonished the
congregation by saying aloud, "No, no! I
can't do that; that's too mnchjfor any man
no objection to a tenth." In answer
to !'Thou shalt not steal," the Duke re
marked: "No, 1 never did steal anything ex
cept some apples when I was quite a little
boy." Once the Duke objected to the prayer
for rain on account of the wind: "No use
praying for rain in a northeast wind." The
court chaplain informs us that the curate of
Kew got so nervous at the continued inter
ruptions of his royal highness that he re
signed his appointment. Exchange.
A Kentucky Wile.
From the Baltimore Sun.
Thursday last, as will be remembered, was
rather a warm day. The most phlegmatic
individual could not restrain the streams of
perspiration which trickled all over the body.
A great big, warm-blooded, 'impulsive man
like Senator Beck was bound nnder the most
favorable circumstances to have a tough
time. Bnt Mr. Beck was booked for a speech
on the Morrison surplus resolution on that
day. He wanted to free his mind on certain
points and it was then or never. So up he
got and for about twenty minutes the words
rolled out of his mouth like a torrent, his
brawny fist pounded his desk like the ham
mer of a blacksmith, and his massive head
shook vigorously and emphatically with eve
ry rising inflection of his voice. When he
finished he was a sight indeed. His collar
had doubled up so that it looked like a nar
row piece of wet tape tied around his neck,
His shirt bosom was sobbing witn perspira
tion. Great damp patches came through and
exhibited themselves all over the back of his
coat, and his face was as if a heavy rain was
running down it. While he was thinking
how uncomfortably he felt a page came and
told him Mrs. Beck was up in his committee
room and wanted to see him. Wondering
what could have brought her rrom home on
such a day he went up stairs, and was sur
prised to find her taking from a valise a full
change of nice cool linen. She told him that
she had read in the morning paper after he
left that he was "going rough-shod ' tor the
Finance committee amendment to the Moni-
son resolution, and as she knew very well
the condition he would be in after he got
through, she had hastened to the Capitol
with what she now handed him. It did not
take very long in the privacy of his commit
tee room for him to wash off the damage re
suiting from his forensic contest and slip
into his clean and well-starched linen. He
then walked back to the Senate chamber
prouder than any peacock, and for the rest
of the day his only topic with everyone he
met was the virtues and charms of Kentucky
wives.
Neat Replies.
From the Pittsburg Dispateh.
Andrew Jackson, it is related, was at one
time entertained at dinner by a gentleman ,
and among those present was one of those
people who often find their way into story
books, etc., as the type of that offensive
class of Americans who are always trailing
their nationality in the dust in the effort to
exalt their individual independence. This
particular gentleman, over the wine and wal
nuts after dinner, in order to emphasize his
own independence of disposition, of which
he was loudly boastful, remarked with a rare
exhibition of self-complacence to General
Jackson:
"I always voted against you, sir."
The company was naturally rendered
speechless by this unexpected disclosure and
the scene actually looked squally; but Gene
ral Jackson put a stopper on the boastful in
dividual and avoided further trouble by
smilingly remarking:
"And I, sir, have always fought the bat
tles of my country that you might enjoy
that privilege."
Another instance of a happy response is
that of an old southern judge but whether
judge by courtesy or in fact the writer can
not state who must have had the faculty of
quick and appropriate reply pretty well de
veloped if the story related of him is true.
He had been a fierce secessionist, and the
fact was not forgotten when after the war he
re-entered the political arena of his native
State. Speaking at a certain place one even
ing in the interest of his own candidacy for
Congress, some one in the audience who evi
dently had a good memory inquired:
"Didn't you speak here just before the
war!"
"I did," proudly responded the judge.
"And didn't you say we could whip the
durned Yankees with pop-guns!"
"I did," replied the unabashed judge,
"but, confound 'em, they wouldn't fight that
way!"
The Postmaster-General Yields.
(.Washington Correspondence Kansas City Times.
When the rich mineral district of Vulture,
Ariz., was developed large mining camps
were established, thronged with enterprising
prospectors, and all went well save the sup
ply of mail matter, which came to hand only
once a week. Petition after petition was for
warded to Washington nrging the necessity
of increasing the mail supply, but the de
partment was deaf to all entreaties and made
no reply whatever to the repeated demands.
Everybody was in indignant despair, when
Professor George A. Treadwell, a noted
mining engineer, undertook the apparently
impossible task of securing a daily mail.
The professor went to work deliberately to
prepare a supply of tin and wooden boxes,
and at each outgoing mail forwarded to the
Postmaster-General the finest obtainable
samples of Arizona products of horned
toads, lizards, centipedes, scorpions and tar
antulas, finally winding up with an extraor
dinary specimen of the rattlesnake species.
Each of these was accompanied by a long
and graphic description, from the scientific
standpoint, of its origin, genus, habits, etc.,
and to each letter was added a postscript:
l snail Keep up the supply as long as Ari
zona furnishes anything novel or strange, or
until our mail facilities are properly in
creased." The officials of the department were at
first pleased by the packages of natural curi
osities, and did not catch on to the drift of
the thing until the twenty-seventh speci
men, a fine rattlesnake, came safely to hand.
Then a new light broke in upon the postoffice
people and they became immediately tired of
the horned toads and "sieh." The professor
was duly visited by a letter of thanks for
his contribution to science and the sugges
tion politely made that the Postmaster-Gene
ral would take it as a favor if he would
cease remitting any more specimens. A
postscript, however, was added by the cor
responding cleik, which read about as fol
lows: "For God s sake don t send any more
of this sort of stuff and you can have any
thing in the department you want." Mail
service was increased to daily and no more
insect or reptile consignments were received.
Leaders of fashion.
From the London Globe.
While we are wondering what in the world
to do with our dogs those of Paris have ac
tually a "fashion" article all to themselves.
Thus we learn that the "griffon" of the
Countess Horace de Choiseui lives entirely
on the wings of fowls; with other interesting
anecdotage. A "chien chic" has his tailor,
but he would be absolutely degraded if he
patronized any but the artist most in vogue.
Moreover he has, if moving in really good
circles, his "bather," his hairdresser and his
shaver. The last named requires to be a
real artist; and last autumn we are told the
Marchioness de Belbenf , who has a passion
for "caniches," imported a Bhaver from the
land of Figaro, who is rapidly making a for
tune.
The outfit of a full dressed dog consists of
collars, braselets, great coats, shirts, waist
coats, boutonnieres for flowers and other
things denoted by an et cetera. Some have
boots, either of india rubber or niorooooi
and t le wile of General Turr has made for
her dog, Niniche, whose ears, poor thing, are
very aencate ana no wanaer a wmte nooa
which she (Niniche) wears in wet weather.
In order to be "saperchic" the dog must be
either Brobdingnagian or Lilliputian; and
the uglier apparently the better. Moppi, the
carlin" of the Countess de iJeaubainais, is
dressed almost always in white cloth embroi
dered with gold; so that with its black face
it is said to resemble a Hindoo idol. The
dogs of Mme. de Persigny are always dressed
in red and white which seems to be the fa
vorite canine colors. Finally there are dogs
not'only superchics. but "supercoquenchica"
and there even the chronicle of fashion
seems to pause, except to tell ns that one,
because she limps a little, is called Mile de
Lavalliere. Altogether fashion seems pre
paring plenty of work for M. Pasteur.
Beware of torn cheeks.
A new and ingenious swindle has been de
tected, as follows: A cheek, say for $10, is
obtained from a depositor at a bank and a
blank check exactly like the filled-in check
Is secured. The two checks are laid one up
on the other so that the edges are exactly
even. Both checks are then irogularly across
and in such a way that the signiture on the
filled check appears on one piece and the
amount and name of payee on the other.
The checks having been held together while
being tor-n, of course one piece of the blank
cheod will exactly fit the other piece of the
filled oheok. The swindler then fills in one
piece of the blank check with the name of
payee and the amount to suit himself, say
$5,000, takes it with the pisce of genuine
check containing the signiture of the bank,
and explains that the check was accidentally
torn. The teller can put the pieces together.
' and as they fit exactly the chances are that
he will think the pieces are parts of the
same oheok and become a victim of the
swindle. The trick, of course, suggests its
own remedy. The teller should refuse to pay
any check that is mutilated.

Many years ago, while engaged in the general
practice of medicine I saw the dark and apparently
hopeless condition of nearly every sufferer from
CHRONIC DISEASES, as well as the utter futility
of the methods of relief (relief simply and not
cure) employed by the best in the medical frater
nity, and I speedily determined my course of ac.
tion and wedded my professional life to the most
careful analysis and intimate knowledge of the pe
culiarities of this class of ailments, bending also
my energies to find some
NEW
Method of Treatment
Which would be alike satisfactory to my patients
and myself.
Not the work of a day, or a month, or a year, but
after MANY years of persistent application, I have
by actual proof and test fixed and determined a
line of treatment which for positive certainty of
results borders on the marvelous and has aptly
been termed
A PRICELESS DISCOVERY,
And I can show, prove and demonstrate to any
reasonable, sensible, intelligent person that the
most difficult, long-standing and obscure CHRON
IC DISEASES will yield as if by magic to my New.
Rational, Scientific Treatment, and I have no
hesitancy in saying that in the large majority of
such cases I can not only srive Relief, but can Cure
them. My treatment, touching the foundation and
removing absolutely the cause of disturbance, rap
idly builds anew, invigorates with healthy growth
and recreates the original design.
