CROKER’S FINE HAND?
The following is from the New
York correspondent of the St. Louis
Republic:
‘‘Perhaps it was the knowledge
that the New Year promised storm
and stress for Tammany, which
prcmpted Richard Croker to secure
the appointment of Hugh O. Pen
tecost as an Assistant District At
torney of New York County at a sal
ary of j'jar.

to keep up the
longer, and it will pass
along with its twin
humbug, the “Bureau of American
Republics.” —The Nation.
The business and financial troub
les ot the leading South American
countries and of the States
have had a marked effect in check
ing emigration from Europe during
the past two years. From tables
lately published by the chief of the
Italian statistical bureau, it appears
khat a decline in emigration is to be
BL in its returns from Great Bri-
tain and Germany and Italy—that
is, the great fountains of emigration.
The falling off was greatest of all in
Italy, in 1892, and it is no doubt
true that the present distress in Italy
is intensified by the fact that some
70,000 Italians who, under ordinary
circumstances, would have found
work abroad, were kept at home to
swell the numbers of the unemploy
ed. This is only one of the ways in
which the business dependence of
one country upon others is shown.—
The Nation.
The burdens of rulership must
seem heavy to Mr. Croker in these
dais, says the Nation. With be
tween fifty and sixty of his deputy
sub-assistants under indictment and
arrest for cheating at the polls;
with Dr. Parkhurst in pursuit of
the Police Department with such a
very sharp stick that all the police
captains as w«ll as the police com
missioners are kept dancing with
uneasiness all the time; withone
police captain under the indictment
and another in danger of a similar
fate in the near future; with one
police commissioner convicted by

moral which
I reg rut ted much,
>«•. Ven say truly,
■HraHSHn God is written 1 over last
HQHBRi beginning to end. Whether in
■■li, or in ihelove that chasteneth, we
■fy not say.” I really feel that we
could say; and your other outspoken
leader on “Jail Deliveries” is an answer
in part. All good government is or
dained by that same God whose hand
you so fitly is written, etc. The
miscarriage of the laws made by such a
government/cannot but be disp easing to
bim, surely. But when this miscarriage
becomes a rule and the right and just ad
ministration becomes the exception,
whatareweto expect? Not that that
hand is lifted unto us “in the love that
cliasteneth.” This jail breaking, and
,tbis exemption from the just punishment
for crime are becoming so frequent that
the law is losing that sacredness that
ought always to surround it, and its de
cisions are being stripped of that rever
ence that ought to cling to them. The
empires of old crumbled from like
causes. Let us pause, we are not more
divinely hedged. Each such case as you
mention, and even minor.ones, cost the
already heavily taxed people of each
county thousands of dollars —a tax im
posed to attain the ends of justice, but
which, ss you well know, only
too frequently attains the op-

; posite. We are all believers in
divine retribution, and as such we
must expect this injustice to recoil upon
1 us sooner or later; and the press and the
- pulpit and the powers of the city, state
or nation that wield not their influence
against such, become accessories to tho
injustice, and cannot expect the hand of
God lifted toward them in “that love that
chasteneth.”
i A jury is sworn to try a case—that is
in plain words each member of that jury
calls upon this God, in whose hands are
' our destinies, to witness the truth of
what they are to say, or the justice of
• what they are to do. They render their
verdict; we must presume always in ac.
cordance with the solemnity of that ter
rible responsibility that hangs over them.
But see how this verdict is twisted and
turned by appeals for new trials; by ap
plications for commutations of sentence,
etc. Now, what do commutations
amount to? What is “imprisonment for
life,” in most cases with us but a few
years. I might carry on the same rea
soning with regard to the technicalities
, by which people are helped out of pay
ing their just debts, and iu all I would
be only showing that we were simply
sowing the winds of which we are bound
to reap the whirlwinds, whether in cy
clones, tornadoes, earthquak s or floods.
Let ue not deceive ourselves—God is not
mocked, His inspired apostle assures us.
If, as holy writ tells, “the sins of the
father shall be visited on his children to
the third, and even to the fourth genera
tion,” what assurance have we that the
mal-administration of the laws through
our connivance may not follow iu the
same ratio. Verbum Sap.

■WSxwmsjlis. Frank Roadsoii of
■Ke lived -.villi a sixpenny nail in her
■■Fl. Remarkable as this story may
it is nevertheless true, and Mrs.
who is in her fifty-ninth year,
will recover from this terrible ordeal.
About eight weeks ago a physician was
called to see her, she being apparently
suffering from paralysis or some kindred
trouble. One side seemed deadened, and
no amount of will power on her part
could cause normal action. Electric bat
teries were applied repeatedly, and ef
forts were made to induce the paralyzed
nerves to act once more, but with little
avail, until the physician, thinking per
haps better results might be attained, or
dered her thick hair cut off.
She objected, but it wap done, and on
examination a sore spot was discovered
■with the head of a nail imbedded there
in upon the very crown of her head. An
operation was performed, and to the
surprise of the physicians present a six
penny nail 2 inches long was removed.
It had penetrated straight into the brain
its full length, and an abscess had
formed upon the brain because of its
presence there. Two days later another
operation was performed, the abscess
was removed, and the patient is getting
along -well, apparently about to regain
full control of her muscles.
The most remarkable part of this
strange story was the discovery of the
cause of its being there. At first she
stoutly denied any knowledge of it being
there, but at last admitted that she had
herself driven the nail into her skull,
pounding it down .with a stone, for the
express purpose of ending her life. Phy
sicians say this is the most remarkable
case on record.—Topeka Special to St.
Louis Republic.

Eight letters and four syllables.
Mix them up and you have nothing.
But properly arranged they make a
word familiar to the civilized world
—a word that stands for all that is
pure, energetic, and effective in
medicine.
Think of it.
From a small beginning, against
prejudice and opposition, against
' monied hosts and trade indifference
Cuticura has become the greatest
curative of its time.
No power on earth could bar its prog
ress‘because it did its appointed
work.
In every clime and with every people
it has worked wonders.
Its cures have approached the mir
aculous.
$5,000,000
Have been expended in advertising it.
But
$1,000,000,000
Could not purchase the daily com
mendations of its grateful friends.
Such praise cannot be purchased.
This is the secret of its success—of its
world-wides opularity— of its won
derful sale—of its constant growth.
It is stamped upon the hearts of the
once tortured, disfigured, and hu
miliated everywhere, never to be
effaced while life shall last.
