Henry H. Marmaduke's Appointment.
Washington, D. C, Feb. 17
Henry H. Marmaduke, of Missouri,
who was yesterday appointed super
intendent of the stamp vault of the
International Revenue Bureau, is the
youngest brother of the late Got.
Marmaduke, and until a short time
ago was superintendent of the ser
vice of the Pullman Palace Car Com
pany in Florida. Three weeks ago
his appointment was decided upon
by tho President, but at the last
moment it was discovered that poli
tical disabilities rendered him ineligi
ble. He was a cadet at the United
States Naval Academy at the open
ing of the war, and resigning, went
south and joined his fortunes with
the confederacy. His political dis
abilities so incurred had never been
removed. Senator Vest according
ly introduced a bill removinr them
and it -passed both houses and a
few days ago received the sig
nature of the president. The ap
pointment was accordingly made

Lafayette (Ky.) Destroyed.
Hopkinsville. Ky., Feb. 21. The
village of Lafayette, situated some
eighteen miles south of this city,
was entirely destroyed by the cyclone
that passed over this county Sunday
night. The storm gathered its
greatest force just west of Lafayette
and struck the village about 9 o'clock.
Trees were tore up by the roots, and
the crash of falling buildings could
be heard everywhere. A large tobac
co factory was struck and burned
down, and tobacco' was found scatt
ered everywhere, K. J. Cooyers
house and store were unroofed, and
his goods damaged $2,000. . R. J.
Caruther's fine residence was blown
down. Several persons injured, but
no lives lost. The total loss in
property is estimated at $15,000.
There is no insunmee on it. '
A Wonderful- Food and Bedieine.
Known and uced bv physicians all orer
the world. Scott's Emulsion not only
gives flesh and strength by virtue of its
own nutritious properties, but creates an
appetite tor food that touiius up the
wasted' body. "I have been using
Scott's Emulsion for' several years and
ani well pleased with its action. My pa
tients say it is pleasant and palatable,
and all grow tronger and gain flesh by
the use ot it- I use it in all cases ot
wasting diseases and It is especially use
ful tor children when nutrient medica
aion is required, as in Marasmus." T.
W. Pierce, M. D., Konxville, Ala. "It
is palatable and easily assimulated, and
children take it so readily that it is a
pleasure to give it." M. L. Fielder, M.

Among all these states north
which it is worth democracy's while
to fight for, in which there is much
to be gained, even if the electoral
votes are not secured, is Illinois.
There are many reasons why Illinois
should be considered doubtful
This was a democratic state up to
the beginning of the war, and under
the revivifying influences - of party
success and a wise administration it
may be brought back to its old faith,
To describe in detail the peculiar
party conditions in this state would
require an article by itself, but it is
enough here to say that every demo
crat in the state considers this fight
ing ground. Mt. Sterling (HI.)

From a pronunciamento issued by
George C. Gorhani, it appears that
Blaine is no longer a possibility;
that Hiscock and Depew of New

ported Greeley against Grant; that
Hoar and Hawley are barred because
they opposed the Force bill; "Wm.
M. Evarts and Wm. "Walter Phelps
because they defended the Louisina

cause he helped to overthrow Conk

number of others, unidentified, be
cause they allawed Conkling to be
overthrown. This leaves nobody
but Conkling to choose from. Tet

The supreme court of Michigan
lately rendered a decision of inter
est to farmers in the case of Mc-
Namara vs. Gaggett. It appeared
that In 1885 Gaggett purchased Bo
hemian oats, imd crave his note to
one Griffin, who sold the note to
McNamara. Gatrgett refused to pay
tho note, claiming that there was
not adequate consideration. Judg
ment went against him in the trial
court, but its decision was reversed
by the Supreme Court, , which ; ruled
that the contract for which the note
was given was fraudulent and there
fore not binding on the defendant.
The terms of the contract, the court
said, were at war with public policy.
and were, therefore, null and void.
It is said that this decision will
make void notes for about $50,000
given upon Bohemian oats contracts
in the state. Rcral World.
