Van Wer den'8 drug store. ADDS TO THE CRIME OF HER HISTORY. The telegraph'^announces that the Ministry of Great Britain has determin ed to imprison—we repeat, to imprison Cronje, the Boer General, on the island of St. Helena. This act, if done, will begrime history. It will make a page blacker than Arctic night. Civilization the world over should rise in protest. Humanity should shrowd it sell in sack cloth, and every child competent to comprehension in the United States should redden from quick to surface at the indirect share wbich attaches itself to this country from «he perpetration of this outnure by the false position in which the Administration of William McKinley has placed us. "Cronje st to St. Helena." The lion of Africa cag nl in a British prison. Shame! Shame! llow ia it possible that God's anger will continue in patience?

They are mere ickeries, convened to utter meaning less phrases and to exhibit hypocritical prbtensions. "Cronje Imprisoned on S Helena." The monstrous incident by which England links infamy to an eternal page was the confinement fo'the great Napoleon on the island of St. Hel ena-. She pleads the peace of mankind for that act. No such reason can be of fered for the indignity offered Cronje. Pure selfishness—arrant cowardice— every ignoble sentiment which crime suggests and fear adopts is the reason for the transportation of Croipje in a military prison. The semi-penal ban ishment of Napoleon ended in a pitiful apology to a justly offended nation. His ashes were returned to his people. The wound which it made has never healed. The banishment of Cronje ought to put the hearts of the French pieople into flame. The act, no doubt, is a reminder to the present generation of French people that England still owns.St. Helena, and that she still has prisons for illustrious Frenchmen. It is a taunt to the French people. Will it be resented? Or will the taunt remain unnoticed? And the Boers—yes, the Boers—what eflect will this outrage have on them? Will Kruger and Joubert be made companions of "the lion of Af rica?" Will the Congress of the United States wink at this infamous performance? Will the knee-bending, truckling of William McKinley and his supporters in Congress furnish a calf with which public indignation can be appeased and the spirit of cordiality continued be tween the great English-speaking peo ple?" Into what depths of shame can the Republican managers drag the Re public of the United States of America? How long will our people bear with our present degeneration?—Cincinnati quirer. "J' story or a stive. To be bound hand and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery, George D. Williams, of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He says: "My wife has been so helpless for five years she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully improved and'able to do her own work." This supreme remedy for female diseases quickly cures nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, headache, backache, faint ing and dizzy spells.
