The Week.
Last Thanksgiving day was mude mem
orable In the LMory of thU country 1y ti e
action In regard to that festival taken U
rhe Plenary Council of tJie Catholic chui h
h.iw In session at Ualtimore. Keganllmr i'
In tbe light of a puritanical, or at least
purely Protestant observance, unknown to
the calendar or usages of the church, the
Cuthwllci of this country hid hitherto paid
lltUe or no attention to the day, never heed
Ingthe executive admonition "to aunhl.'
themselves at their uni.d places i,f wor
hlp,"&c. The Plenary Council at Haiti
more decided on a step that will probuUy
change all tills. They re)lve-l that, if his
Holiness the Pope approve the decree, the
Uuy shall henceforth he sacredly o!-ered
by the Kouian Catholic church of Uie
United States, and to give emphasis to its
meaning, the council decide, I at once to
give their deciee practical effect ly hold
Ing a special Thanksgiving ei vice iu the
Metropolitan Cathedral lu li.dtlnmre, all
the memliersof the council 1-emg in at
tendance, as well as an immen-e lay "!
gregatlou. The sermon was preached ly
the eloquent Bishop SpauMinr, of I' ia
and was "full of interest and in spirit t
good will to all who call theiiwlves Chi N
tiaas." It may he noted in this connection
that the common Idea that Thaiiusglvln
dny Is a festival f puritan omiu appears
to he an error. Bradford, win lia lately
written an admirable history of New York.
Khows Uiat the puritans foim.I the festival,
already centuries old, iu Holland during
their short forced sojourn tJiere, and that
tlie Dutch settlers on Manhattan Wand had
habitually observed the day long More its
adoption by the Plymouth colony.
The po.-tnia-.ter general rejmrts the ex
peuditure.s of his department for the fiscal
year at ti,404,!)iiO, and the ordinary reven
ues at l:l,:UiS,l-2T. The cost of the service
over the revenues for the past year was .,.
i!04,4M, and for the current year the de
partment a.sks for fj,M'.0.::4H from the treas
ury. A reduction of the postage do local
letters to 1 cent Is recommended, as also
the establishment of a 10 cent special de
livery bv means of messenger boys.
The people of West Virginia have showu
their good sen-e by rtif)lrm an amend
ineut to their state constitution doing away
with October election. If Ohio now would
manifest the same gmvl sense, the country
would be rid of the October nuisance. It
Is hinted, however, that the political bum
infers of OLio found the carnival in that
state last Octolier sh profitable iu dollars
and cents that any proposition to cut off all
future harvests of the kind would be over
whelmingly voted down.
The newspapers continue to bring liar
rowing accounts of "The Cumberland
Plague," as it Is called the strange disease
that tor tlie past six weeks has been afflict
ing four or rive counties iu the Cumber
land mountain. iu .southwestern Virginia
and southeastern Kentucky. Taking Mt.
Pleasant, In Harlan county, Ivy., as about
the center, tlie disease is said to rage over
a territory altout 75 mile w ide by () miles
long. The w hole region Is In the moun
tains and very thinly s, tiled the ntire
populathm not over n.Ortft, and of these it
is believed a tenth have fallen victims.
They are fust taken with violent gripings,
followed by a racing headache and fevers
and seldom linger beyond two days. Not
one In ten attacked recovers There is a
geueral agreement that the disease is
caused by mineral poisons in the water.
This I evidenced by the fact that the mor
talitv anions hores, cattle and sheep is
even greater than ammi,' the people. For
months the region has been amii tcd with
drought Wells and cisterns are all dry and
prings no longer yield a supply of water

Tiik Poi'it.AR Vni;.-The Chicag
Time Indulges in the folio ing "rumiua
tions'' on the vipular vote at the late pi cm
dential election:
The aguregate xpular vote was flSi.-0-.,
ns ugainstiV.'Ot.-l-.N in 1HS0, showing
an increase of (ili.t'io. In eight state.,
however viz, (Jeorgia. Maine, Nevada,
New Hampshire, South Carolina, 'Jcuncs
see. Texasiind Vermont, there is a falling
off iu the total vote. In the sixteen south
ern states, the total vote was .'.Md.'i.OOl.
aiiainst 2,Tl!i,'2H!t in 1 , an increase of
ll'i.T:!.'. The Cleveland electors in these
states received 1,I!2".,N7 votes, against 1,
(.l.iii4 cast for the Hancock electors foiu
year ago, showing an actual decrease in
the democratic vote in the "solid south" ot
.'s,;-7. The "bulldozed" ami "intiinidit
ed" 'publicans in that section have, on the
contrary, made a handsome increase, gaiu
i n li' all the now vote and making inroad,
upon the democratic vote of 11). The to
tal vote of the tiarlield electors in lsso In
these ftate. was 1 Oii7..Hiii, w Idle the Blaine
electors this year received 1.21 l.WM, an in
crease of U l,.Vi!l votes. Six states Colo
ra lo,' Kansas, .Maine, Minnesota, Oregon
and Pennsylvania gave the Blaine ticket
larger pluralities than they gave the (iar
lieid ticket, while In ten' states Illinois,
Iowa, Massachusetts Michigan, Nebraska,
New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island
Vermont, and Wisconsin the Blaine plu
ralities are smaller than the (larfield plu
ralities were. Blaine carries two st ites
which were lost by (Jarield ( 'alifornia
and Nevada and loses three states which
were carried by ( iariield New York, Con
necticut and Indiana. Although Blaine'.'
plurality iu Maine is very much larger than
that of (Jartield, he received l.s;:o fewer
votes than tiarlield iu that state. In only
one New England state llhode Island-
is the Blaine voie as large as the (iariield
vote. In the si New England states the
iiirinegate Blaine vote is ."s-j,l ,:!, as against
t l4.4'i4 for the Gar field ticket, showing a
positive loss of J-sl. There is also a
slight falling off in the democratic vote in
the New hnuland states, where the Han
cock electors received ;ill,:Mli votes, and
the Cleveland electors .'Itlli, 104 votes, a de
crease id' 4. Ills. The net republican loss iu
New England, therefore, is JS.OH;). Only
five of the thirtveight state rexrt no
votes for the St. John ticket. Its aggre
gate vote In the country wan 147, '277. The
apparent vote for the Butler ticket w as l'2."v
."il, but owing to the fusions in seven
state it is iinjxssibe to ascertain the real
strength of the "people's party." In Mich
Iganthe Butler elector who ran separately
received 41.:'.!X) votes. The total republi
can vote In the country at large this year
is 4,7!i.'),'27-2; in K'WO." 4,44!l,0,i;i ; increase,

year U l.sll.e.M: Iu 180, 4,442,0;li; In
creae, ;Hi!U!. The net dennx ratic gain
Is '2:,:MI1. The jiopular vote, as will lie'ob
sened, i almost as evenly divided as it
wasinlM-so. The largest democratic ma
jority is that of Texas. !W,;iifcj; the lamest
republican majority is that ot Ivnnsylva-
nia. si.ur.'Q
Prom which the Ti'iik' deduces that Uie
democratic gain. have been altogether con
fined to those states in which the spirit of
tariff reform is most active, it is to the
growth of this sentiment that the gains in
Michigan, Iowa and Indiana are clearly
due. In New England the republican los
ses are plainly to be attributed to a like
caii.se. It Is equally clear, on the other
hand, that in Pennsylvania, in the south
and on the Pacific slope, where the repub
licans have made their best showing, tlieir
Increased strength is due to their cham
pionship of protection.

The worst slander yet put upon the ne
groes of the South was contained iu the
telegraphic aiinoniH ciueut, made a day or
two ago, that three negro converts w ere In
the Mormon colony that was but to leave
Tennessee for I'tah. Heretofore the Mor
mon evangelists have sought their converts
only among the white people, and a black
"saint" has never yet trod the streets of
Salt hake City. It w ill be something of a
change for a white bishop to lead arownd a
parti colored assortment of wives, and for
Ethiopia to stretch out her hands unto an
apostle; but, in the Mormon creed, variety
is the spice of life, and so everybody con
cerned ought to be happy.

A cablegram gives a pitiful account of
the impecunious condition of the Ameri
can colony in London, owing partly to the
continued tumble in American securities,
but mainly to losses in betting on Blaine.
One young man named Oould. of respect
able parents, after bringing most of his
friend to grief, has sailed for the Trans
vaal as a volunteer in the Bechuanaland
expedition. Several ardent Blaine men
are in hiding.
Talking about lr. Tanner's i elebr t"d

The long sicklies and Intense suffering
of Mr. W illiams has been the cause m
much talk and wonder for miles around
llarperslield. The reason for all this i.
because Ids disease, being one that a great
many jwople are troubled with, had as
sinned a terrible form, and showed plainly
what neglect in getting the right kind ol
treatment on the start might lead to. A
..-a I..,,,, lv interested ill this subject. We
.Tin n , j-ij -
take it for granted that many of our readers
are; therefore we give a oriel nisiory m
Mr. Williams' disease:
i-'iirht cunrn uiro lie was a stroiiiT. healthy
man," weighing over !200 pounds ; " but soon
after his heiilth began falling him, and
finally became so bad that his friends ad
vised him to be treated by a prominent
physician of Cleveland. He did so, bi t
was finally given up, tlie physician telling
him that his was the woibt case of stomach,
kidney and heart affection he had ever
si-en, and that lie w as liable to drop dead at
any moment. He wass ion after examined
ut the Cleveland medical college, and the)
pronounced his case as an incurable one o.
the liver, kidneys and heart. They came to
the conclusion after having tried nearly ad
tlie remedies generally used by the be-t!
physicians tor the treatment of such case..,
imiiielv. aconite, veratruiii, digitalis, coh lu.
cum. malt extract and tincture of iron, b. t
they completely failed.
Iliscondition at tins lime wa.s ten one.
His heart would frequently pulsate lsi
times a minute, and so violently as to he I
frightening. I le could scarcely retain any i
thing on his stomach ; sleep snort and nine-
freshing; nil almost constant ourning ami
itchiny: of the skin all over the body, par
ticularly nisrhts, no appetite; extremely
nervous and excitable. "Death was con
stantly staring me in tlie face," said he,
"and my family were nearly woru out with
fear and care. I had been in this sad state
for eight years, seemingly no chance for
getting well, hope all gone."

lositive benefit so far than from nearly all
the treatment combined that I had pre
viously received."
"Why! it seems almost incredible that in

The grape crop on Kelly's Island, In Lake
Erie, opposite Cleveland, is said to be unu
sually abundant thisyear, and the bass lih
ing on its shores better than ever before
known. The follow ing history is given of
the island : higinallv it was literally cov
ered with snakes and reptiles, and no hu
man being, not even the noble red man.
had the courage to dispute tlieir right and
title to the island. During a heavy storm.
many years ago, a schooner was wrecked
off McCodgaiu's Point. The boat carried
a cargo of live hogs. All hands were lost,
but the hogs swam ashore, and, as they
fonud little else to feed uimn. thev made a
diet of snakes. In the course of time they
succeeded in devouring all the snakes on
the island. Then the Kelly family put In
an appearance and began devouring the
hogs, a feat which was accomplished easily
and quickly. .Nothing lias since succeeded
in exterminating the Kelly family.

Catarrh
Is undoubtedly caused by Impure blood.
Hence a medicine which purifies the blood
removes the cause of the disease and opens
tlie way for a thorough cure. This Is exactly
what Hood's Sarsaparllla does, and it makes
the cure complete by giving the system health
and strength, and enabling it to throw off tut
depressing effects of the disease.
Catarrh
Is permanently cured by Hood's Sarsaparllla.
Mr. A. Ball, Syracuse, H. Y.,says: "Hood's
Sarsaparllla lias helped me more for catarrh
and Impure blood than anything I ever used."
"I have taken Hood's SarsaparilU for
catarrh, and think it ha done me a great
deal ot good. I recommend it to all within
my reach. Hood's Sarsaparllla has been
worth eveiythlng to me." Lutuer D. Rob
