Fbidai, November 26, 18S6.
One locality of South Carolina, has bad
a shower of shot, the shot having the
precise apneiranre of the lead of that
name which is sold over the counter.
We shall lo-'k anxiously f'r the remaind

The male portion of the human rare
should unite in a grind testimonial to
Mrs. John Biirelow, of New York. An
exchange siateslh-it "Mrs John Bitreiow.
of New York, bus started the fashion of
wearing low hatsatttieoperaati'l theatre.
3t is now considered vulvar to wear ten
story hats at a place of aoi'isemen'.
A story is gmn around that Mr.
Joseph Pulitz-r has f-iSS.iXM) worth of
Government hoods registered in his name.
Geortre VV. Chilrts says that he thinksthe
New York Wurtd is making over (500.
000 and can be made to clear over $1.
000,000 per annum if Mr. Pulitzer should
continue to boom it aud somewhat cur

The draft of a new extradition treaty
between the United Stales and England
has been received at Ottawa, and it i
said to be acceptable to Canada as pro
posed. In the list of extraditable offen
ces, emtx'zzi' oient of any sum and lar
ceny of ov.T 920 are named Should
thi- trca'y la- ralifi. d the uopiilarity of
Canada as a r-'-orf for American invalids
will be seriously impaired.
After their bushwhacking tight upon
Col. Morrison, the Pennsylvania monoj
oly protitiontsts are trying, it seems, to
escape the odi nn of their cowardly war
fare by puuirjg forth a'l sorts of fantastic
explanations to aceo'int for Morrison's
defeat. It is even gravely asserted by cor
respondents of republican papers that
citizen J'li n Jarret and his tinpla'e bar'l
did not influence 100 votes in the dis
trict, and that the tariff reformer was
beaten because the democrats over there
nearly all bated him and went to the polls
eager for revenue. This is too absurd!
Perhaps these same correspondents will
be good enough to explain, with siraiiiar
reasons, the n m irkabie coincidence by
which free trade Frank Hurd. in the
Toledo ii-triel of O.tio, was also ambuh-
td, SU' prised an 1 r ui!ed, while free trader
C'arii-V in Kentucky, was ambushed and
Vr-y near'y r..ur-d. all on the s-tme day.

All the little mails in a Brooklyn stra
inary have pledged themselves to resist,
htncefor:h. the temptation to buy, or to
U-.;e their fond parents into buying any
"iove of a b n net" tha is decorated with
bird feathers . S iciety young men who
annually svearoS from cigarettes and fifteen-ball
p-ioi may make light of this
solemn act of self-denial on '.he part of
the youn la lies, but its moral heroism
"wii! be re-i i appreciated by anyone wh
has seen a woman go into ecstasies over
a humming bird bonnet. The pledger, n
oil; excludes stuffed birds of all colors
and sizes, tint distinctly forbids the "use
of the feathers of any wild birds as orna
ments of dress or household furniture "
Not even an ostrich plume nor the tail
feather of a bird of ps-"adire is permitted
to add piquancy to the beauty of the little
neophytes in this Brooklyn branch of the
Audubon Bird Protection Society. The
need for such a check is shown by the
statistics of the trade in birdskins. From
a small district on Ling Island 70,000
birdskins were brought to New York in
four months. On the first of February
last, one New York firm had 20,),(MK of
these skins for gale. One auction room
in London so5diu three months 404,464
West Indian and Brazilian birdskins. and
856,389 East Indian birds. A single
Parisian dealer sold in one year 100.000
African birds. If any birds at all are to
le. Is'-t to sing in the fields and to hiuit
the matutinal worm, it is evident from
these figures that the Audubon society
must push its reformatory work ener
getically. .ain and I,omi.
The Philadelphia Pre says in New
England, with one district the Second
Rhode Island vacant, the democrats
have gained five distiicts from the repub
licans and lost one district to thesn, a net
democratic gain of four districts. In the
middle states the republicans have gain
ed seven districts from the democrats and
lost four of them, a net gain of three dis
tricts. In the western states the repub
licans have gained seventeen districts
from the democrats and lost five districts
of them, as well as one district to the
labor men. t net republican gain of eleven
districts. In the Pacific states the dem
ocrats have gained one district from the
republicans. In the southern states the
republicans have gained eight districts
from the deinocrats and lost four to them,
while the democrats, in addition to mak
ing a net loss of four districts to the re
publicans, have been stripped of two dis
tricts by the labt r men. Taking the
country together the republicans have
gained thirty-three districts from the
democrats and lost nineteen districts to
the democrats, one district to the labor
men and one district vacant, a net repub
lican gain of twelve districts, while the
democrats have made a 'net loss of six
teen districts -fourteen lo the republi
cans and two to the labor men.
Th First Keen Twinge.
As the season advances, the pains and
aches by which rheumatism makes itself
known, are experienced after every ex
posure. It is not claimed that Hood's
Sarsaparilla is a specific for rheumatism
we doubt if there is. Or can be, such a
remedy. But the thousands benefited by
Hood a Sarsaparilla, warrant us in urging
others who suffer from rhenmatism to
take :t before the first keen twin .

Atlanta, 6a., Nov. Sri McGee, the mem
ber of the leprislHture from Murray, is in a
fair way to aelueve fame. He is opp 8ed to
monopolies and big cities. He was elected as
the special repivsemativ" of the farmers, with
a little adnu.vture of tlie Knights of Labor.
Alter hi- election he called a meetintr of
his const ituent& It was held while the Henrv
George ramoaign was raging in Sew York
city. The meeting came to the conclusion
that there were too many rich folks, and
wuti rneir increase should be cut off.
Tue result has iust been made clear hv a
bili intiojuiud in the legislature to limit the
profits on "store goods." It is provided that
merchants shall not charge a profit of over 15
per cent, on the necessaries of life such as
corn, flour, hacon. aud coffee. Penalties are
provided for the man who dares to speculate
outside of these figures.
The friends of the bill claim that it will
bring ido:it a revival of industry among the
poor; that the state has as much right to reg
ulate mercantile profits as it has railroad
rates, and that laws should be mad for the
poor entirely. The serious part of the mat
ter is that the bill stands a chance of passing
the bouse.

Ashland, Wis., Nov. 26. Sunday morn
ing last two men William Gould and
Aivh'e Hishop left this city for a deer hunt
ii i alrout tit! miles from here they parted
njth the inteiuon of meeting again at a
short distance. Bishop states that he was
uuable to find his companion after he left
him. and returned here that evening, since
which time nothing has been seen of Gould.
A party has been out searching for him, but
owing to the recent snowstorm the trail
could not be found. His friends here think
he has wandered to some lumber camp, and
may yet turn up alive. Mr. Gould's home is
in Indianapolis, Ind., where he has a father
and mother. He was unmarried.

New Yoifte, Nov. 96. The American ship
Granite State arrived hare after a juissage
ol KiO days from Manilla aud an experience
that has rarely lien equaled on the high
seas The story told bv her skipp -r, Cipt
Frits, is a recital of desperate deeds which
would ap';ear fxtraordn-ary ev n in the
pa.'. of a dim- novel. The subject of the
ti was a Spanish sailor named Icon
Sal ires. it was in the middle of Novemlter
that the man commenced his murderous
work, i hi jr xaiit of squally weather much
ca e was r -quired in the handling of the
cr lit, h il i je crew had to re ma n eonx'antly
on i k. ilares Was askl ono nurniu ' to
a-.st in s-mia work. He turned to Oar-t
ritiz and t.d:
"I'll be if I do. This is a floating hlt.
an i 1 won t allow you to kdl me by work.'
ine captm spoke to several of his own
men and ased them to advise iSalares to
obey instructions. Thev were going for
ward to try i -er-uiasion when Salaries stepinnl
forward to the fore-hatch, which was irtiy
open, ana -tv'mwyi:
"If you com new in I swear by all that's
good I'll set fir to the cargo in the hold. I
am well prepared for this attack, and will
stand no non -ense."
The men did not heed his threats, but con
tinual to move forward. They had just
readied the after end of the forecastle when
Salares pidle-1 a bo? of ma-t.-a. fiom his
pocket, an 1, alter igu.tmg one, held it al-; t
to show he w.aii l carry out his designs. The
men stopjied short, aiul Cap:. Friiz cailed
out: "For God -i sake, conu back; th linn
is mad.''
The vessel was loaded with oil. The en
raged Spaniard then lowered himteif down
through tlie harch on to t ie top tier of ca-e-oil,
and craw i;i g up forward into the eyes (f

wife and daught r of Capt. Fritz were on
