Governor Bloxham. of Florida, following
the < x.>mpl< of his ptxdecessor. has called
.a national conference of governors upon
the state of the country, With special refer
ence to the militia service, shore Is so
doubt that then.' should be a recasting of
the line of organization of the militia, says
the Savannah News, and that much useful
information will be eleci'tod by the pro
posed Tampa conference. There seems to
besom* thing hi the Florida climate which
prompts the governors of the stats to note
what the country needs, and call a confer
ence to consider what shall be done about
It.
John Bright, the famous British states
man, who, thirty-five years ago was a
leader of British public opinion, in a
speech at that time in the House of Com
mons. made a remarkable prediction, the
recollection of which is now revived. He
was discussing national affairs, when sud
denly stopping in his remarks. he changed
the subject, and with great deliberation
•aid: "Mr. Speaker, if our kinsfolk on the
other side of the Atlantic settle their civil
war satisfactorily and get back together
In peace, in forty years there will not be
a gun fired in the world without their con
sent."
Men are Just like hogs, however dis
tasteful that may sound to hogs, says a
writer in an exchange. When a hog gets
an ea’ of corn every other hog will trot
along behind him. and squeal and whine
and beg and toady for a bite, but Just let
the front hog get caught with his head fast
in a crack and every son of a sow win
Jump on him and tear him to pieces; just
eo with men. As long as a man is pros
perous and has money he can’t keep friends
off with a baseball bat. The moment he is
unfortunate and his wealth is gon® he is
not only snubbed by his former friends,
but they at once begin to do him all the
harm possible When a man starts down
grade the world steps aside and greases
the track."
The elections In Vermont and Maine
serve but to increase the belief that this is
a Democratic year and throughout the
country there is Republican apathy, while
the Democrats are active and hopeful. As
former Congressman John M. Wiley says
In a statement in yesterday's New York
Journal: "When normally strong Republi
can states like Maine and Vermont show
weakness is shows the feeling existent
■throughout the country. The feeling is ev
ident in this state. The change of the peo
ple s attitude towards the national admin
istration is marked. While I am not in
clined to blame President McKinley. I am
sure that political pressure brought to |
bear upon him and his chiefs has caused
the gravest scandals of the war.”
Fitzhugh Lee Rediscovered.
“Fitzhugh Lee rediscovered" is the
Philadelphia Times' heading over some re
marks concerning the good record made
by General Lee as corps commander. That
officer has undoubtedly made the best
record of any of the generals in command
of a camp. He fully deserves all the good
things said of him. General Lee will have
command of the American army sent to
occupy Cuba. For that position no supe
rior officer could be chosen The Time*’
remarks concerning b!m are of interest to
Southerners. It says:
"Since Alger went west, to grow up with
the country, the war department has made
a number of discoveries. One of these is
that there is a person in the service named
Fitzhugh I>.*e, who holds the commission
of a major-general and is in command of
a corps of volunteers in Florida, and that
this corps is in excellent condition well
organized, well drilled, well fed. and gen
erally in good health and ready for the
Held.
"While all this rumpus has been going
on. General Lee has been saying nothing
nut quietly attending to his business.
Jacksonville is not the most agreeable
summer resort. Compared with Chick
amauga, of example. It m.ght besupposed
to be unhealthy. But Fitzhugh Lee seems
to have had the old West Point prejudice in
favor of educated military men for <=taff
positions, and he got an efficient staff as
signed to him at the beginning. As a re
sult we have heard so little complaint
from his corps that most people had for
gotten its existence as completely as Mger
apparently had, though the material he
had to work with included some of the
worst and the volunteer officers had as
much to learn there as anywhere else.
"It will be remembered that before Al
ger left he issued an order for the muster
out of one-half of the volunteers, selected
upon no ascertainable system. It is this
order that has brought the Seventh corps
to mind, since it takes from It a number
>1 r< giments just as they had been got
into good serviceable condition for the ex
ped: lon to Cuba on which they were ex
pecting to embark with the approach of
cold weather. Alger is not much on or
ganiza ion, but for disorganizing he is the
greatest secretary of war that ever has
been known, and Lee could not expect to
escape his devastating hand entirely. It
Is not a part of the Alger plan that any
man as competent s Fitzhugh Lee should
Ih: given an opportunity for effective ser
vice that would further overwhelm the
p< ts of Michigan.”
The Mahdi’s Tomb.
I he Mahdi s tomb, which is mentioned as
being partially demolished, is thus de
scribed by Slatin Pasha:
"In order to show his veneration for the
Mahdi, the Khalifa decided to erect a
monument to him, as is the custom in
Egypt; but this he did rather to satisfy
his own vanity than out of respect for his
late master. A square building was erected
some thirty feet high and thirty-six feet
each way, and the stone for this construc
tion, of which the walls were upwards of
six feet thick, to be brought all the way
from Khartoum. About this a hexagonal
wall, fifteen feet high, was built, from
which rose a dome forty feet high. On
the corners of the main building were four
smaller domes. This was called Kubbet
el Mahdi (Mahdi’s Dome). It was fur
nished with ten large arched windows and
two doors, and in the hexagonal portion
were six skylights. It was whitewashed
all over and surrounded by a trellis work
fence. The w'indows and doors were made
by the workmen in the Khartoum arsenal;
while directly beneath the dome and over
the Mahdi’s grave a wooden sarcophagus
was erected, covered with black cloth. On
the sides of the walls candelabra were
hung. While suspended by a long chain
from the centre of the dome was an im
mense chandelier taken from the govern
ment palace at Khartoum. The sombre
appearance of the inside of the building
was relieved by some gaudy painting on
the walls. . The plan of this building
was devised by an old government official
who had been formally employed as an
architect; but, of course, public opinion
dutifully attributed the design to the
Khalifa.”
When the Mahdi died of a complication
of diseases aggravated by the results of
the debauched and vicious life that he led,
public belief among Dervishes in his di
vine origin received a very rude shock, but
what must, have been thought by his
savage followers when they saw the in
fidel’s terrible “lyddite” shells crash
trough the roof of the very spot in which
his sacred remains lie interred, and, burst
ing inside, scatter ruin and destruction
around them?
* •
Another Rebuke,
Captain "Fighting Bob” Evans, of the
lowa, was invited to speak at a recent
1 meeting in Poughkeepsie, N, Y., held in
aid of the fund for the sick and wounded
soldiers at Camp Wikoff. The captain said
he had never made a speech before, but
his maiden effort was one which should
stir up our government to a fuller sense
of its defenders and the employment of
better methods and practices in their be
half.
Captain Evans said that while glad to
do his share in furthering all humane and
patriotic measures he could not help but'
express regrets that such relief meetings
were necessary. “Any government,” he
said, “that is worth fighting for must as
sist and help the brave men who left their
families, which is really the hardest part
of it —much harder than to go out and face
Spanish bullets, which Is the easiest part
of it. Probably In the years to come, if
this Nation has learned its lesson or vwill
ever learn it, such meetings will disap
pear.”
No Joint Protectorate.
Germany's effort to Join with the United
States in a joint protectorate of the Philip
pine Islands will hardly find approval in
the United States. The United States has
had one experience with a Joint protecto
rate. in which England and Germany
formed the other Joints. Samoa was the
subject of this mutual supervision, and the
outcome of it was not attractive. When
the United States tried to establish a coal
ing station there, Germany objected, ami
the matter is still the subject of inter
national negotiations. The United States
fails to see how Germany enters into the
Philippine problem in any way, and the
United States does not like Germany’s ef
fort to force an entrance to it.
If any one would have dared to predict
five or six weeks ago that American war
ships would be decorated with Spanish
flags in honor of the birthday anniversary
of a Spanish Princess, he would certainly
have ben mobbed. Last Sunday Princess
Mercedes, King Alfonso’s sister had her
birthday, and the New Orleans and Cin
cinnati. lying off San Juan, were lavishly
adorned with the colors of Spain. Castilo
mania may shortly replace Anglomania.
Three hundred millions of dollars are
now locked up in the National treasury
and withdrawn from the uses of the people
at a season of the year when money is
most needed in active circulation. To a
man up a tree it seems that some of this
coin should be “where it will do the most
good"—circulating among the people.

LINGERING SUICIDE.
Nervy Man Too 1 * °oison Four Days Before
We come Death Came.
Kansas Cxty, Sept 19.—Fred Langsdorff
died a horrible death near Armourdale,
He commnU-J suicide by taking a drachm
, of prussic acid in small quantiti-s covering
. a period of four days, then opening the
veins of his arm During this time he ata
nothing and drank only a pint of river
water.
An ante-mortem statement of the suicide
which was found in a little notebook be
side the dead body, told how he had on
Wednesday, September 7, between 2 and 3
o’clock in the afternoon, taken several
grains of morphine and sat down under a
I tree to await death.
Thursday a notation tells of the suicide's
I regret and wonder at the poison not tak
i Ing effect, and of the increased doses he
: took. A line or two on Friday repeats his
I regret at his inability to kill himself and
of more poison taken. On Saturday he has,
he says, taken thirty grains of morphine
and sixty grains of prussic acid, and this
amount of poison having failed to do its
work, he will open the veins of his arm
I with a bookbinder's cutting tool, which he
had. There the writing ended. When
Langdorff’s body was found where it had
lain for hours, everything indicated that
he had gone through what his ghastly diary
related. No cause for the act is known.
A Narrow Escape.
Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada
E. Hart, of Groton, S. D. “Was taken with
a bail cold which settled on my lungs;
cough set in and finally terminated in
consumption. Four doctors gave me up,
saying I could only live a short time. I
gave myself up to my savior, determined
if I could not stay with my friends on
earth J would meet my absent ones above.
My husband was advised to get Dr. King’s
New Discovery for consumption, coughs
and colds. I gave it a trial, taking in all
eight bottles. It has cured me, and, thank
God, I am now a healthy woman.” Trial

fl CRITICAL TlfllE
Ouiing the Battle of Santiago--Sick
or Well, a Rush Night and Day.
PACKERS WERE ALL HEROES.
Their Untiring Efforts in Getting Ammu
nition and Rations to the Front
Saved the IX.y.
P. B. Butler, of pack train No. 3, writing
from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23d, says:
. “We ail had diarrhoea in more or less
violent form, and when we landed we had
no time to see a doctor, for it was a case
of rush and rush night and day to keep
the troops supplied with ammunition and
rations, but thanks to Chamberlain’s Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were
able to keep at work and keep our health;
in fact, I sincerely believe at one critical
time this medicine was the indirect sav
iour of our army, for if the packers had
been unable to work there would have
been no way of getting supplies to the
front. There were no roads that a wagon
train could use.. My comrade and myself
had the good fortune to lay in a supply
of this medicine for our pack train before
we left Tampa, and I know in four cases
it saved life.” ’

Although General Kitchener took his
troops into what is regarded as a very un
healthy climate, the sick list of his sol
diers was never more than 5 per cent, and
the fatalities were comparatively nothing.
In our war most of the troops remained
in the United States, and yet more died
from the camp life at home than were
killed in combat in Cuba.
-I tL to A mao defend his
’ — honor with his life.
.JS'/L What is more dishonor-
X able than unnecessary
failure? Thousands'of men make failures
of life and die premature deaths, leaving
w ives and children unprovided Jbr, because
of their reckless neglect of health. No
man can de good work or be successful in
business who suffers from biliousness, di
gestive and nervous disorders such as sick
headache, giddiness, dizziness, drowsiness,
cold chills, flushings of heat, shortness of
breath, loss of appetite, fullness and swell
ing after meals, wind and pain in the stom
ach, costiveness, blotches on the skin, toss
of sleep, disturbed sleep, frightful dreams
and nervous and trembling sensations.
These are but the forerunners of some
dread disease like deadly consumption, or
fatal nervous prostration. Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery is the best med
icine for hard working men and women.
It cures all cases of weak stomach, im
paired digestion and disordered liver. It
gives keen edge to the appetite, makes the
digestion perfect and the liver active. It
makes rich, red. pure blood and builds
firm, healthy flesh. It builds new, healthy,
muscular tissue tn every vital organ. It
tones the worn-out nerves. It strengthens
the muscular system, and invigorates and
vitalizes the whole system. It induces
sound and refreshing sleep, dissipates
drowsiness and melancholy, and imparts
mental power, elasticity and courage. It
arouses the physical energies of the whole
body. It cures 98 per cent, of all cases of
consumption, bronchial, throat and kindred
ailments. All medicine dealers sell it.
Costiveness and biliousness. Doctor
Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets cure them. They
Strengthen and stimulate the overworked
organs. They never gripe. One “ Pellet ”
is a gentle laxative, two a mild cathartic.
