WHA are readily aroused, first ‘by curiosi- ty as to how long the child's father has been dead; then what he died of, and since the widow seems to mourn for him, how she must have cared for the dear departed. And, if she did care for him, why might not he be the fortunate individual, especially if the first husband left cash enough for the support of two, or three, as the case might be. Of course, when acquaintance follows, the apparent widowhood can be easily and inno- cently explained and the desired hap- py result follow.—Baltimore Ameri- can. Do You Suffer From Rheumatism. N oone who has not been sufferer can have any idea of the excrutiating agony caused by rheumatism. This painful disease is trequently caused by a stop- pnge of the circulation of the blood, through the muscular portions of the body. BALLARD’S SNOW LINI- MENT will invariably cure this disease by penetrating every spot of the skin and drawing to the outer surtace all poison- ous matter and restoring a uatural circu- lation of the blood. Every bottle guar anteed. Dr. E. Pyle, Agent. A Very Cruel Sort of Statesman. In the Missouri legislature, in dis- cussing the proposition that convicts should have a portion of their earn- ings during confinement given them upon discharge, a representative named Fogle, who apparently seems to have been delayed somehow or somewhere a few centuries ut least in coming Into this world, opposed the measures by saying that, ‘If he had his way he would have them branded with an indelible mark that would cling to them to their graves. He had no sympathy for them, and in most cases he favored re-incarna- tion more than giving them good clothes with which to go out into the world.’ Heis a statesman of the ancient, iron-clad dark age order. It was statesmen of the Fogle specie who, some centuries back in England enacted that the laborer who ran laway from his master should be | branded on the forhead with a hot | HOMOBOPATHIC minute, evidently in doubt as to! it, and we fixed up a scheme to go to i PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON whether he was crazy or only just 2 playing a joke onher.

Baltimore, Md., May 29.—Colonel William Louis Scbely, a claim and pension agent, was arrested yester- day under an indictment charging him with aiding in the forgery of a voucher for the purpose of obtaining money from the United States. Mrs. Laura Weaver, a widow who was entitled to a pension, died a year ago without having received it. Itis charged that her son, August Weaver, induced Mrs. Catherine Miller to impersonate his mother and that Col. Schely prepared the veucher, knowing at the time that Mrs. Weaver was dead. August Weaver and Mrs. Miller have also been indicted and are out on bail. Col. Schely says he did not prepare the vouchers. He has been in the pension business for 25 years. of Calamities. , May 29.—A Pacific mail steamer which arrived yester- day brought startling news from China and Japan.

The emperor sub- scribed over $5,000 out of his own purse for the relief of the sufferers. About 10,000 people were rendered homeless. On Oshima island an eruption took place April 13th and destroyed more than half the houses on the island.
