' Other matters- have prevented
much talk in the N» w York pa
pers recently of the candidacy 1
for a Senatorshi of Chauncy i
M. Depew , but there may be!
significance in the fact that a
banquet given by the doctor last
Thursday evening was attended
by twenty-three of the thirty
four members of the New York
State editorial Association.
One New York newspaper
story is that Gen Wade is to be
Military Governor of Cuba, ami
another that the place is Io
fall to Gen. Brooke, who has al
ready recommended Gen. Lee
as governor for Havana, Gen.
Wood for Santiago, Gen. Sny
der for Puerto Principe, and
Gen. Carpenter for Pinar del
Rio.
No one expected that the col
or question would reach as far
North as Canada, yet there is a
theatrical manager in Montreal
being sued for excluding a ne
gro from the parquet of his the
atre, and the suit brings out the
fact that there is a law there
against such discrimination.
A few more days and the*‘gay
and festy” law maker will turn
the midnight hand of the clock
baek for a few’ hours, and then
the next morning catch the first
train out from the City-by-the-
Ki m bal 1.
The farmers of Morrow coun
ty, Oregon, whose wheat ripened
l ite, were forced to the use of
flails, as the threshers refused to
handle it because the late wheat
is so tough it breaks the ma

Ex Governor Thomas G
Jones, of Alabama, who bore

It is estimated that the subur

A woman with a bright eye, clear com
plexion, mantling color in the cheeks and
buoyant elastic step and manner has a
natural attractiveness that no artifeial
Agency can counterfeit .
A woman who is afflicted with the morti
fying misfortune of a dull, sallow, pimply
complexion or that listless movement and
attitude which provokes only t and
revulsion in the opposite sex, ought to avail
herself of the purifying, invigorating power
of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery,
which makes a strong, healthy stomach
and digestive organism . purifies the blood
and imparts a natural stimulus to the ex
cretory functions , insures healthy weight.
Clear skin, bright eyes and the animated
manner and bearing of perfect health.
A lady living in West Virginia. Miss Anna
Callow, of Kyger, Roane Co., writes : "It ia
with. pleasure I write you after using a few
bottles of Dr. Pierce’s ‘ Favorite Prescription ’
and ‘Golden Medical Discovery,' and I think
them valuable medicines for female troubles
and weaknesses. J could hardly go about ray
work I had such inward weakness mid constant
misery in the womb. It worried me so that I
would give out in walking a short distance. I
had a bad cough and my lungs hurt me all the
time. I got very thin, my complexion was bad,
•nd my eye* would get so heavy in the evening
they seemed stiff in the lids. I could hardly
move them. Many persons were alarmed about
me. I looked so had and had such a cough , they
were afraid I would go into consumption )
felt so badly every day that I had no life about
me. I used only five bottles in all I shall ever
•peat in praise of yout-grand medicines. They
are blessings to suffering females.”
Another good thing to have in the house
is a vial of Dr. Pierce s Pleasant Pellets.
They cure biliousness aud constipation I

The public school fund paid
to white teachers in North Car
olina lust year was $451,574,and
to negro teachers $227,195. The
average attendance of both races
I at school was 110,677 whitesand
58,548 negroes. And, as in Geor

the freight.
Judging by the way the press
of Georgia is howling, and by
the way in which the legisla
