REPUBLICANS ON THE RUN.
Many Thrown Out of Office by the
Senate Committee Changes.
Washington, March 16. —This was a sad
day for the republicans at the capital. The
republican senators who have, as chairmen
of committees, enjoyed, in some cases for
years, practically and exclusively the use of
the convenient and well-furnished commit
tee rooma, aud the services of the commit
tee clerks and messengers, were packing up
and moving out. To be sure eleven of tne
veteran republicans got chairma ships by
courtesy, but tuey are all of small commit
tees, having committee rooms incon
veniently placed aud modestly equipped,
some of their committee rooms being
two blocks from the Senate chamber
in the Maltby building. Of course
these eleven republican senators, fortunate
enough to get chairmanships, will be able to
keep their committee clerks and messengers
in most cases, but the republicans wh > haVe
been olerks and messengers for their col
leagues were bidding a tearful farewell as
they gave place to their successors, who
were promptly appointed by the new demo
cratic chairmen.
ALL PREPARING TO DEPART.
The republican officers and employee of
the Senate proper, who have been hoping
against hope that the democrats would not
appoint their successors befora the regular
session next December, having become con
vinced that the new officers of the
Senate will be selected at the
caucus on Monday and that their formal
election will be followed promptly by the
inevitable changes all down the list, wore
preparing to-day to deport next week.
"Father Time” Bassett, who holds the title
of assistant doorkeeper (though, by the
way, there is no such office as doorkeeper
in the Senate) aud Amzi Smith, the remark
able superintendent of the dooument room,
whose memory ia only equaled by his
courtesy, and industry, will, of course,
remain undisturbed, but all the
other important officers and most
of the subordinates will have to go.
The senators of the majority will, in
accordance with custom,practicably' appoint
ali the subordinates, but they will do it in a
more systematic manner than hitherto, pre
paring a complete schedule giving each sen
ator his share, which wiil be furnished to
the uew officers of the Senate as soon as
they are eleoted.
CHARLESTON’S THEATERS.
Five Suita Growing Out of the Rivalry
Settled.
Charleston, S. C., March I.—The five
lawsuits pending in the court of oommon
pleas for this city, aud in which New York
theatrical managers were interested, were
settled out of court to-day. Tho plaintiff
in all the oases was L. Arthur O’Neill,
owner of the Grand opera house. Thi ee of
the suits were against Jeff D. Beinstein,
Yeruona Jarbeau’s husband, and one against
A. C. Haymau. Tho suite were for damages
for breach of contract, the plaintiff alleging
that the manager had played in Owens’
Academy of Musio after booking with
him. It is said that the basis
of settlement tn all the cases was
mi equal division of the amounts of money
In dispute and the court expenses between
the plaiutiff snd the defendants. Very im
portant principles involving the construc
tion of theatrical contracts would have
come up for consideration had the cases
been tried. A number of witnesses on both
sides arrived this morulng from different
portions of the country and were surprised
when they were informed that the cases
had been settled last evening.

A TOWN IN FOUR COUNTIES.
Melrose Votes in Favor of Being
Placed In Clay.
Melrose, Fla., March 35.—Melrose has
been passing through an exciting election
contest for the past ten days, which has
aroused more interest than even the last
presidential campaign.
Our town is located in four oounties,
Alachua, Putnam, Clay and Bradford,
about an equal amount of its territory
being in the three first named, and a small
portion in the latter. Tr.ere have been sev
eral efforts made in the past to have the
legislature change the ciunty lines so as to
take all of the territory into one county,
but from some cause a bill could
never be got through the legislature.
The citizens met two weeks ago and de
cided to make another effort and appointed
yesterday for an election on the question.
T hey had prepared a petition with the name
of the couutv left blank, and a< the voters
cast their ballot they signed the portion
which was to be filled in with the name of
the county receiving a majority of the votes
cast. The whole number of votes cast was
122, of which Alachua received 57, Clay 63
and Put lam 2. So the managers of the
election filled in the petition with the name
of Clay oounty. While tne petition, as it
Btands, is unanimous, it is doubtful
if it [asses the legislature. The
best thing for Melrose aud the
ad jacent country would be to let the matter
stand as it Is for the present, and as soon as
the constitutional limit expires in 1896 go
in for anew county with Melrose oa the
oounty site.
Melrose oontlnueg to improve and its
future is a bright one. There is one thing
about our town that is not usual with towns
of its ciass and that is that every dwelling
erected is first-class both in size and arem*
tectural appearance. There are very few
dwellings, not more than half a dozen, that
cost less than <I,OOO, and from that up to
several thousand.
FLORIDA’S SUNDAY SCHOOLS.

Palate a, Fla., March 36.—The Florida

strictly. Many noted Sunday school
workers are present. President J. C. Comp

The Charity ball at the Putnam house
Wednesday night was a brilliant success
socially, and the proceeds will make a
handsome sum for the hospital. Visitors
from all parts of the state besides local so
ciety people were present.
FRUIT IN SPALDING.
An Abundant Peach Crop Expected.
Plume All Right.
Griffin, Ga., March 10.—The Middle
Georgia Horticultural Society met at Pa
mona, a little village near here, a few days
ago. The fruit growers thought the fruit
was damaged,especially the Elberta peaches.
From the present prospect, it was reported
there would be an abundance of Alexander
and Amelia peaolies. The Elbertas are
badly injured, but If there is one bud in
every twenty-five uninjured, there will still
beau uDuudauce of fruit,
Wild goose plums seem to be all right, but
the Japau plums are mostly destroyed.
Griffin is the center of a very large and
successful fruit-growing section. The in
dustry Is so important that the fruit crop
is always watched with much ouxiety.
Much attention is given to grace culture,
and the fertilizers for grapes and their cul
tivation was discussed at length at this
meeting.

ft DANGEROUS DIET.
How Meat May Cause Disease
and Even Dealh.
A PHYSICIAN’S WARNING.
An Astounding Revelation Baaed on
Facte—A Cause cf Sickness Rarely
Suspected— some Remarkable State
ments.
“Do you eat very much meat?”
If you are au American, io fairly good
circumstances, the chances are that you
will answer, "Yes, I like plenty of meat
three times a day.” You may even eat too
much, but you will never dream that there
is any danger m it, although there is a dan
ger and a very great one. It was only re
cently that a well-known physician called
attention to this fact in the Journal of
Health . This is what he says:
“The cheapness of meat and a craving
which the systems of most people seem to
have for meat, has made it common for city
people to live almost entirely on meat in
the winter months. Meat is eaten three
times a day in large quantities and that, let
me tell you, is the reason why disease
of the liver and kidneys are so con
stantly increasing. Too much meat causes
biliousness and indigestion, and if this
is continued for any length of time it pois
ons the entire system. When you find peo
ple oomplaiuiug of loss of appetite, and
sickness at the stomach, with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back of the head, pain in
the right side and under the shoulder-blade,
with fullness after eating, you may know
that their liver and kidneys are out of or
der, and that they are in for a good spell of
sickness before long. When the liver and
kidneys act properly, they are constantly
removing impurities from the entire body,
and when they get out of order the whole
system suffers.”
Every one who has experienced the pain
ful symDtons that the physician describes,
and who seeks a reliable Bnd swift remedy
for preventing them, will find valuable ad
vice in the following remarks made by well
known people whose words are beyond
question.
Miss Alice Bowers of Winfield, 0., re
cently said in relating her experience: “I
was troubled with dyspepsia for six years,
was very nervous and oould not sleep, and
my head gave me uo rest, which caused my
hair to turn gray at the age of 16 years. I
had no appetite, my stomach would not
digest the food, and I was afflicted with
other ailments. Meat seemed to lie heavy
ou my stomach when eaten, and had a most
unpleasant effect. I was finally persuaded
to try Warner’s Safe Cure, about which I
had heard so much. After taking it for
some little time, I found that 1 couid eat
well, that my food digested properly, and
all paiuful symptoms disappeared." I am
now in better health than ever before in mv
life.”
A. J. Dewey, the notary public and well
known business man of Chaumont, N. Y.,
tells the following remarkable story: “Sev
eral years ago my doctors told me that I
had kiduey disease and grave!. At tltnee
the pain would be so acute that I could
hardly get to the house. In my business I
had sold Warner's .Safe Cure and, seeiug the
way it benefited others, tried it tnvself.
Before finishing the first bottle I ' was
greatly relieved. I told my doctor that I
was using this remedy and he said,
‘Keep right on with it, ns it is
better than anything I can give
you, and, in fact, is the best thing in
the world for kidney and gravel troubles.’
That was once that I cheerfully took a doc
tor’s advice. Very soon I was all right
again, and, therefore, I cannot speak too
highly of the great Hate Cure which has
done so much for me.”
W. H. Heath of Hastings, Mich., is a
wonderful examplo of perfect health en
joyed in estreme old age, The secret of it
is explained in the following statement he
makes: “Ten years ago I was completely
prostrated with kidney disorders, feet and
iimbs so swollen that 1 could not ge; on my
clothes without assistance. The best doc
tors told me I had Bright’s disease and
that I was so far gone that I
could not live two months, and as I had
so short a time to live I went east to New
York state to make a lait visit to my
friends, among whom was the late Mr.
Cunningham, carriageruaker, of Rochester.
N. Y. He recommended Warner’s Safa
Cure so strongly that I commenced to use
it at once, and kept at it until I gradually
grew better, all traces of the disease disap
peared and I was finally cured. 1 am 7hJ
years old, smart as a cricket, aad attend
ing to my business daily. I can thank
Warner’s Safe Cure for not being a subject
for the undertaker.”
The mauv painful effects of imperfect di
gestion, including stomach troubles and
diseases of the liver and kidneys, are all
thoroughly and speedily relievod by the
help of the great Bafe Cure above referred
to. The fact that it has restored to health
thousands of men and women who were
unable to find retief in any other way suffi
ciently proves that it can be implicitly re
lied upon by all who seek its powerful aid.
