MRS. BLAISE'S REPLY.
BBS ASKS TH3 SECRETARY TO
PUBLISH HER LS TT3RS IN FULL.
A Claim That Mere Extracts Do Her
an Injustice—She Denies an Inten
tion to Try to Meet the Secretary In
a Diplomatic Encounter, But Ap
peals for Justice as the Mother of
His Grandson.
Biorx Falls, S. D. t March I.—Mrs.
James G. Blaine, Jr., has furnished the As
sociated Press an open letter in reply to
“the personal statement'’ made by James
O. Blaine, Sr., through the same channel
last SuDday, retarding the relations be
tween James G. Blaine, Jr., and bis wife,
who was recently granted a divorce. The
letter by Mn. Blaine, Jr„ in fall, is as fol
lows:
Siorx Falls. S. P-. March I, 18W. I
My Dear Sir— You have furnished the public |
with a remarkable production, under the cap
tion of “A Personal Statement." I consider it
my duty at this time to address you with that
degree of dignity which your position as a pub
lic man entitles you to. 1 acknowledge
your well-earned, rlcbly-deaerved fame
as a diplomat, and appreciate fully
the weight which your utterances possess
as fully as do 1 appreciate my own weakness
and my total inability to cope with you in a
personal encounter: but I shall expect from you
that considerate and honorable treatment which
I am sure your keen sense of equity and fair
ness will dictate. A powerful man of a great
nation will surely accord to a weak and defense
less woman her full meed of justice. You
surely can ill afford to withhold it. I wish it
distinctly understood by you that I am
not asking sympathy. I respectfully demand
justice It is in your power to grant this sim
ple request. It remains to be seen if you will
doit. I will aid you by a suggestion. Have the
kindness to publish in connexion with your
statement the full text of the letters you have
quoted from, and do not, like a shrewd and un
principled person, select only such paces as
may be needed to make out a case, but give the
entire contents to the public that they may be
judged rig* eotisly.
Y'ou have the documents, surely, else you could
dot quote from them. I will give you a suffi
cient time in which to conform to my reasona
ble demaud, say ten days If at the end of
that time you fail to respond I shall deem it my
duty to give in substance their contents and
oorroborate my statement by publishing let
tars from your son loth prior and subsequent
to our marriage. You know full well that your
charges against me regarding the m irriage are
ginfounded. I give you ample opportunity to
retract. You have two alternatives, the one
suggested, or silence. Your consideration for
your grandson will surely Induce you to decide
In favor of the first. This is not a proposed
diplomatic engagement on my part, for your
■uccessln dealing with powerful nations is too
well known for me to meet you on any other
ground than as the mother of your grandson. 1
take it that your statement was prompted chiefly
by the remarks of Judge Thomas in rendering
bis decision which gave me my freedom. I have
tic defense to offer in his behalf. I simply de
sire, now that you have arraigned me by the
use of fragmentary quotations from my love
letters to your son. that you be fair enough to
publish the originals in fulL I will then prove
§o the world that your son was far from the
Weakling, and that you, bis proud father, well
knew it long before he married me. Truly yours,
Marie Nxvins Blaine.

BRUNSWICK’B WATER.
The Artesian Liquid Obtainable at a
Small Expense.
Brunswick, Ga., March I.— None of
Brunswick’s advantages can overshadow
her artesian wells. AH that is necessary to
secure artesian water In Glynn
county is to sink a pipe at a
cost of not more than S3OO and
water In plenty, and pure as any, will spout
forth. This fact alone has added much to
Brunswick’s advantages ns a health resort,
and given this city a good health record.
In 1834 the oity government sunk the first
■well to a depth cf feet.
A supply of water averaging
sixty gallons per minute was obtained. The
water when first taken from the well had a
slight sulphur smell and taste but
contact with the pure air dmiipate-1 that in
a few hours. A sample was forwarded to
Prof. U. C. White, state chemist, for analy
sis, who proDOunoed it of extreme purity,
with good inn.eral properties, and admira
bly suited for ad domestic purposes. One
well was not sufficient for Brunswick, and
another 418 feet deep was sunk, and a flow
of 400 gallons per minute Was struck, giving
about the tame analysis. These wells
were so successful that others were
sunk, and the city now has for
public use two and private citizens ten,
while various manufactories in Glynn
county own eight. At the compress docks
is a well sunk through thirty-five feet of
•ait water, flowing 360 gallons per minute.
This pure water, oomiog through a salt
marsh, is a curiosity to many, and but de
monstrates the fact that Brunswick oan
furnish enough pure water to supply oities
many sizes larger.
BT. SIMON’S OLD CANNON.
It Was Used In the Reign of George 111.
Against the bpaniards.
Brunswick, Ga., March I.—Glynn
oounty abounds In historical reliot On St.
Simon's Island is an old cannon which is a
curiosity to all visitors. Tbs cannon was
used during the reign of George 111. of
England in the defense of this oounty
against the Spaniards, and, together with
several old cannon balls that have been
J flowed up in the vicinity, form an interest
og historical collection.' On Jekyl Island is
a large boiler, remarkable for its oonnec
ikion with the slave trading of bv
gone days. This boiler was used aboard
the bark Wanderer, which brought the last
cargo of slaves to this country, and
anonored near Jekyl. The oannon will
probably in the near future be mounted
and placed in Hanover park, in Brunswick,
with the boiler on a s.and near by. The
relics thus placed will add additional inter
est to the sights seen by visitors to the city.

QUEER FISHING IN ASIA.
Oriental Ways of Catching Fish—Tor
tures Ahead for Fishermen.
From the Washington Star.
“The Chinese have many very curious
ways of oatohing fish,’’ said a piscicultural
sharp to a writer for the Star. "In winter
they dive for them. A certain species de
manded in the market seeks shelter during
the cold season under rocks at a considerable
depth. They caunot be got with hook and
line and so the fishermen go down into the
water after them, plunging from a boat.
Three dives are made each hour, and a fire
it kept up on board tbe boat for the purpose
of warming those at work between whiles.
Not infrequently they come up bleeding
from the lungs, and rheumatism and skin
diseases render them disabled by the time
they are 40 years old.
“It was tbe Chinese who invented the
well-known plan of capturing duoka and
other water fowl by wading toward them
with a basket over the head and dragging
them under water bofore they knew what
had caught them by the legs. Theirs is the
idea of employing cormorants to aid them
in fishing. You have heard, doubtless, bow
the birds used for this purpose have collars
around their necks to prevent them from
swallowing tbe game they oapture. At a
signal given by their owner they plunge
into the water after the prey. Whatever
they get is taken from them, and they are
rewarded for every success with a bit of
fish small enough for them to eat. They
are forced to work very hard all day long,
but great care is taken of them and they
are nursed most attentively when thoy are
siok. A bird is usually good for service
until It is ten years old. The cormorant
fishermen are organized into societies, tbe
bird 9 belonging to each association having
a peculiar mark.
“In India also the natives employ many
methods of fishing which seen lib odd to us.
There is in the district of Oude a species of
so-called ‘walking fish’ with snake-like
heeds, which are often seen floating on the
water as if asleep. The people shoot them
with cross bows. Usually they sink wbeu
they are killed, so that they have to lie
dived for afterward. In the Indus, the
Gauges and other streams are numerous
flsh-eating crocodiles which attain a length
of more than twenty-feet. Except when
□ear their nests and anxious to defend tbeir
eggs they run away from human beings.
Of fish they oatch an enormous number,
and it has been thought very strange that
the fishermen should not destroy suou
rivals in their own business. But they re
gard the mere suggestion of such an idea
with horror, saying that the crocodiles are
brother in trade.
“ The man-eating crocodiles of those rivers
are regarded as sacred and are never harmed.
Of late years they have destr yed more lives
than formerly, owing to th prohibition by
law of the ancient practice of consigning
corpses to the streams. It was thn good old
w ay to fill the mouth of the defunct respect
fully with mud and leave the cadaver to be
swept away by the current. Upon such
supplies of food the great saurian a depended
largely, and being deprived of them, they
lie in wait to snati up living people and cat
tle. Five persons have beeu known to be
carried off in one year at a single pool.
However, theoountry is overpopulated! but
one would not think it an agreeable death to
die
"The Buddhists in India have a horror of
eating the flesh of animals, believing them
to be incarnations of human beings’ souls;
but they permit themselves the luxury of
fish, usually getting around the difficulty by
saying that the fishermen take away the
fishes’ lives and are responsible. On the
walls of their temples are numerous frescoes
vividly depicting the terrible tortures which
fishermen will pave to endure in a future
state. In these painting! fires are repre
sented stirred by devils, who are dragging
the fishermen into the flames in nets, haul
ing them by hooks and lines and prodding
them from behind with fish spears.
“There is a story of a Buddhist prest who
lodged for some time at the house of a fish
erman. The latter bad recently reformed
ani was pursuing another occupation.
After two davs the guest a9ked why no fish
were served upon the table, sod, being in
formed that his host was withheld by con
scientious scruples from catching them, he
expressed his approval in high terms. At
the end of a week, however, he felt a crav
ing for fish strong upon hifn and inquired
how far the fisherman’s net stretched across
the neighboring stream. He was told that
it exteoded one third of the way across.
" ‘lf that is the case,’ said the priest, ‘the
fish have their choice as to whether they
will be caught or not. So, if they choose to
be taken uobody else is responsible. There
fore, you will do right to try and catch
some.’
"Accordingly the priest was served tbere
nftar with fish, of which delicacy he would
have been deprived had it not been for the
wisdom which sacred books had taught
him.” __

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2,1892.
BLAND’S BILL TO PASS.
MARCH 25 THE D ATR I T WILL PROB
ABLY BE VOTED ON.
The Repub icans as a Whole Not In
clined to Prevent or Delay the Vote
on the Measure—Only 62 Democrats
Counted on to Vote Against Consid
eration— Bland Bound to Press the
Measure.
Washington, March I.—The evident in
disposition of the majority of tbe republic
ans to aid tbe anti-silver men to prevent or
delay tbe vote on the rule brought in yester
day by the committee on rules, and which is
to be brought up next Monday in the House,
together with the new aggressiveness of the
silver men, makes it probable that if there
is no change in the conditions tbe rules will
be adopted and the bill passed on March 25.
The anti-silver democrats have been rely
ing on tbe republicans to help
them. At a conference this even
ing of the anti-silver democrats it
was generally admitted thdt the repub
licans. while they might, with ten or twelve
exceptions, vote against the Bland bill on
the direct vote, c uld not help them to keep
off the vote, which is, they think, about all
that can be done to prevent the passage of
the bill. They count sixty-two democratio
votes against consideration, but with all
the republican votes they can count they
still need thirty or forty votes.
HOPING AGAINST HOPE.
They hope, of course, that this week’s
delay and tbe chapter of accidents may
bring forth something in the nature of a
change in the circumstances which will
help them consolers’ion of the bill
off, but they recognize the fact that tbe
oh auees are against them. Of oourse they
will try every parliamentary expedient to
defeat it, but with the majority of the com
mittee on rules and the majority of the
House against them, they will have hard
work to block consideration. Chairman
Bland Is ready to demand a rule fixing
the day and hour for a vote on the bill and
the committee on rules will give it to him.
Speaker Crisp and tbe other House man
agers think that the bill must pass and that
the sooner it is passed the better. So it will
be put through in the midst of the tariff
discussion, the wool bill being passed under
a suspension of tbe rules on March 2.
A DIFFERENT VERSION.
By the Associated Press.
Washington, March 1. —The New Eng
land and New York anti-silver democrats,
and some of the more pronounced opponents
of free silver from other states, were in fre
quent conference to-day at the House can
vassing the situation and endeavoring to
oonoert measures by which additional
strength might be secured for their ti ie
in the coming fight in the House over
the stiver question. Asa result of these
conferences it was asserted by several auti
silver democrats that they had sufficient
demooratio votes to defe it the adoption of
the report of the rules committee giving
time for tho revision of the Bland bill, pro
vided tbe republicans stood by them.
WILLIAMS INTERVIEWED.
Mr. Williams of Massachusetts, who was
asked whether he had any assurances that
the republicans would stand by thorn, re
plied that he had not, and he did not kuow
what the republicans would do. He added
that he was not worrving about their
course. “Every democrat,’’ said he, “who
goes before the people as a democrat to ask
their suffrage to oppose free silver in any
coming time will have an un
answerable argument if the repub
licans now take the responsibility of
getting cut from under and allowing a free
silver bill to be considered when It might
be defeated by the.r aid. W’e can simply
ask the people whethor they will trust the
democrat who hns stood on the floor at all
times and opposed free coinage, or the re
publican who failed when the time came to
brat froe silver.” Mr. Williams declined to
give the number of democrats whom he
expected to vole against the consideration
of the sliver bill.
HARTER CONFIDENT.
Mr. Harter of Ohio was confident of de
feating the resolution assigning a day for
the free silver bill, but he gave no figures
or names to justify bis faith.
The republicans who have been inter
viewed will give not comfort to anybody.
Exoeptlon is made in tho case of Mr. Mar
tine of Nevada, the most ao'lve free silver
coinage man on the republican side in the
House. He sticks to his originally
expressed belief that ten republicans will
always be found votiug for free silver,
especially bs no caucus action either way
has beeu taken on the subject. Mr. Pierce,
Mr. Bland and other silver men express un
diminished confidence in their ability to de
feat on a vote any proposition looking to
the shelving or detest of the free silver bill.
FLORIDA’S REPUBLICANS.
Their State Convention to be Held at
Tallahasase, April 13.
Jacksonville, Fla., March I.—The
republican state central committee met
this morning in the rooms of the Harrison
and Morton Club with twenty-five commit
teemen present. Dennis Eagan was chair
man of the meeting and Joseph E. Lee
(colored) secretary. It was decided to hold
a state convention at Tallahassee on April
13. It had been believed that the repub
licans would not nominate a state ticket, but
this seems to indicate the reverse.
There is some talk of the republicans
joining forces with the third party on t e
state ticket. The eight delegates to Min
neapolis will undoubtedly be pledged to
1 President Harrison.
A Revival at Sanford.
Sanford. Fla., March I.—For the last

Brown is a man of great power. He goes
to Ocala to-day to begin a meeting to

at that point this afternoon. Hu remains

THE EVELYN PLANTATION.
The Suit in Connection With It Only
a Friendly One.
Mr. N, H. Barnwell says the report of
the filing of a suit iu the clerk's office of
Glynn county, relative to titles of the
Evelyn plantation, published iu Sunday’s
Mornino News, does Mr. Arthur Barn
well injustice, as the latter is most anxious
to make the titles to the property, the
value of which is greatly overrated, but
that owing to certain oomplicatio.: an or
der of oourt became necessary. Heuce the
filing of the suit. It is regretted that the
publication pla -ed Mr. Barnwell in the po
sition of objecting to make title! to the
property—it appearing from Mr. N. H.

GAPT. PRATT A LQ3BR.
The House Votes to Cut Off His Al
lowance of SI,OOO.
Washington, Maroh I.—ln the House
this morning Mr. Dockery of Missouri,
from the committee on appropriations, re
ported the District of Columbia appropria
tion bilL It was referred to the oommlttee
of the whole.
Tbe House then went into oommlttee of
the whole, with Mr. Bycum of Indiana in
the chair, on the Indian appropriation bill.
The pending amendment to strike out the
clause appropriating SI,OOO for an annual
allowance to Capt. Pratt of the Carlisle
Indian sobool, was passed over for the
S resent. This was done at the request of
lr. Beltzboover of Pennsylvania, who said
that he was satisfied that Capt. Pratt had
never uttered the charges that were
attributed to him.
Mr. Joseph of New Mextoo succeeded In
having adopted an amendment increasing
by $5,000 the appropriation for the Indian
sohool at Santa Fe, N. M.
After several other attempts had failed
the committee recurred to the Mansur
amendment, striking out the annual allow
ance of Capt. Pratt of tbe Carlisle school.
A TELEGRAM FROM PRATT.
Mr. Wilson of Washington sent to the
clerk’s desk and bad read a telegram from
Capt. Pratt, saying that he had been In
correctly reported. W bat he had said was
that tho Catholics got more tban double as
much of the Indian school appropriations at
all the other denominations com
bined; that they maintained a
powerful lobby in Washington and
manipulated politics to accomplish their
purposes. “These,” contiuue Capt. Pratt,
’’ were general statements, having no bear
ing whatever on individual members of
congress, much lesson Mr. Mansur, iu whose
general view I concur.” This telegram was
not more satisfactory to Messrs. Mansur,
Stockale of; Mississippi, and Pendleton of
West Virginia than had been the alleged in
terview with Capt, Pratt, which brought
him into question.
H!8 ALLOWANCE CUT OFF.
The motion to strike out Capt. Pratt’s
annual allowauoe of fI,OOO was agreed to by
a vote of 93 to 37, and the committee rose

providing that when vacancies shall here
after occur in Indian agencies they shall be
filled by army officers detailed for duty by

by a vote of 142 to 54.
The bill was then pasted.
Mr. McMililu, from the oommittee on
ways and means, reported the free wool
bill, which was referred to the committee
of tfce whole, together with the views of
the minority presented by Mr. Burrows of
Michigan. Mr. McMillin stated that it had
been the intention of the oommittee to call
this bill up for consideration during the
latter part of the week, but that owing to
the illness of Chairman Springer he would
not call it until next Tuesday.
Mr. Bryan of Nebraska and Mr. Turner
of Georgia rexpectively, from the same
oommittee, reported bills for the free entry

MEDICAL.
SCROFULA
Is that impurity of the blood which produces
unsightly lumps or swellings In the neck;
which causes running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which develops ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin of pimples, can
cerous growths,or "humors;” which,fasten
ing upon the lungs, causes consumption and
death. It is the most ancient of all diseases,
and very few persons are entirely free from it.
“CURED
By taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which, by
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar
medicine for this disease. If you suffer from
scrofula, try Hood's Sarsaparilla.
" Every spriug my wife and children have
been troubled with scrofula, my little boy,
three years old, being a terrible sufferer.
Last spring he was one mass of sores from
head to feet. We all took Hood's Sarsaparilla,
and all have been cured of the scrofula. My
little boy is entirely free from sores, and all
four of my children look bright and healthy.”
