Joseph Christian, a colored waiter, who worked at Schwing & Clarke's for a num- ber of years, and who has since been em- ployed by Hoban & Osborne, dropped dead last night just as he said “good night” to Mr. Hoban. Dr. Selhausen was called to see the man, but could do nothing, for life was extinct at the time the man fell to the floor. The body of “Joe,” who was well-known by that name by the patrons of the restaurant, was removed to the morgue. He was about fifty years old and llved on Madison street. Heart disease caused his death. sd Mr. Kilbourn’s Tribute to Chamberiin In conversation with friends about John Chamberlin today, Hallet Kilbourn said: “I believe John Chamberlin had more per- sonal friends than any man in America. All who knew him loved him, all who loved him praised him, since John’ was the ideal €f good fellowship.” aed Theosophists propose to erect a college of occultism in this country which will sur- pass in mystery anything of the kind ever attempted before. Plans for the new col- lege were found among the papers of the late Mr. Judge. Bad dreams are one symptom of | ill health. Peo- ters lightly. ‘They believe that they are caused by the eating of something _indi- westible, and that this is a small matter. Perhaps sometimes it may be. ‘The most horrible dreams are, however, due to affections of the nerves. Irritated, tired, worn out nerves are one of the chief causes of indigestion. More than that, they are a continual strain and drain on the brain. They are sapping the vitality of the brain every instant in the day. By the time night comes, the brain is too tired to rest. It isan suas conditon of fatigue. The little worrie#¥ind irrita- tions of the day find repetition at night in the form of dirty, muddy water, filled with slimy, crawling things, from which the most frantic efforts give no relief until the sufferer finds himself wide awake, sitting up in his bed, with sleep banished for that night. That is nervousness, perhans caused by, or causing, indigestion, and roducing insomnia — sleeplessness. It Soesn't take a man long to wear out with that sort of work. The day after a night full of horrible dreams is not likely to be, a good day for business. A man’s work for that day is not likely to be very valu- able—nor the woman’s either. There is a cure for bad dreams, sleep- lessness, indigestion, brain fatigue and debility. Its name— The Golden Med- ical Discovery,” called so because its dis- coverer knew that it was more valuable to the world than the discovery of gold in Californix, or Australia, or Africa. It makes what is far more precious than the finest gold—good health. It purifies the blood, strengthens the nerves, aids diges- tion, invigorates the action of every organ in the body, and produces firm, solid, healthy flesh. It will fill out the cheek- vs of bloodless, pale women and nerveless, lifeless men. It issold by drug- gists, and there is nothing “just as good.” ®for Pipe and Cigarette @ 202.

The Government Asked to Prevent Freight ing Baltimore and Philadelphia, Discrimination Favor- The interstate commerce commission has been advised that the New York produce exchange is having prepared a statement, and will file with it a complaint against the Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsylvania rail- road companies, that the differential on grain rates which has prevailed for a num- ber of years has resulted in the almost complete destruction of the grain trade of the port of New York, and the commission will be asked to extend such relief as is in its power to grant. ‘The statistics, as gathered by a special committee appointed by the exchange to collect them, show that for the first four months of the present year’s traffic, May to August inclusive, the receipts of wheat were nearly 5 ”),000 bushels less than for the corresponding period of last year; of corn the decrease was more than S 000,000 bushels, and of oats over 12,000,000 bushels. The paper states that the rate for wheat from the western basic points, that is points from which rates are caleulated, ts 5 cents per bushel to New York, while it is but 4 cents to Philadelphia and 3 cents to Baltimore, and that the reason for the higher tariff to New York !s not so much because it is a longer haul, but because the Joint Traffic Association so wills it. Result of the Differential. The figures prepared by the committee show that on account of this differential New York shippers are having the grain bought in the west sent to Philadelphia and Baltimore to fill export orders, and it 1s stated that one New York merchant has re- cently engaged nine full cargoes of grain for export by way of Baltimere, on account of the lower rate to that port from the per also, it is understood, contains a statement of sales of future deliveries, showing the business on the New York roduce exchange for the months of May, une, July and August each year since $ The figures, as stated above, not orly show a marked falling off this year, but are regarded as significant in showing a falling off in New York's business, due, it ts claimed, to rate discrimination. When grain is shipped to New York from the west, so it is stated, options are sold against it, and while it is not claimed that all the option sales are of this charac- ter, a considerable part of the option bus!- ness is. The figures submitted show that the sales of wheat futures for the four months mentioned are this year only 313,- 000,000 bushels, compared with $34,000,000 bushels for the corresponding month’ of last year, while the sales of corn futures aggregate only 24,000,000 against 57.(100,000 bushels, and of oats futures only 14,000,000 bushels against 25,000,000 bushels. The ng Season. The figures are confined to the business of the months of May, June, July and August, because those are the months in which navigation is open, and constitute the natural season of active shipments to the Atlantic seaboard. The paper further states that the rate by canal from Buffalo, to which port much grain is sent from Chicago by lake steam- ers, to New York is but 45-8 cents, but as shippers can send their grain to Philadel- phia and Baitimore so much cheaper, the canal boatmen of New York are also se- riously affected by the differential. It is stated that the grain merchants of Raltimore will probably take up the fight in order to defend the differential, which as been warmly cherished by them for many years. It was originated by Mr. John W. Garrett_ when he was president of the B. and O., and although during his lifetime the New York merchants tried repeatedly to get him to modify the regu- lation, they were never able to do so. On one occasion the New Yorkers ap- pealed to Congress, and were able to get the appointment of a special committee to investigate the subject, but after a long and exheustive examination they declined to recommend any legislation against the position Mr. Garrett had taken in the matter. Since Mr. Garrett's death there has been -al of complaint by the same parties in New York that the grain trate of that city was constantly decreasing on account of the differential, and threats have been made a number of times that appeal would be made to the Interstate commerce commission in regard to the subject, but this is the first time that the threais have been carried into effect. —_—_—_— WILL OF THEODORE C. BARBER. Peculiar Conditions Attached to Be- quests to His Sisters. The will of the late Theodore C. Barber, dated July 1, 1896, was filed today for pro- bate. After bequeathing all his personal property and certain real estate to his wife, Emma A. Barber, the will devises to Ru- dolph Eichhorn lot 9, square 534, with direc- tions that he pay the profits accruing there- It ts from to the wife of the deceased. stipulated, however, that at her d land is to be conveyed to Mr. Bart ters, Josephine Bergling and Ida In this connection a peculiar condition 1s imposed. ‘The testator stated that his sis- ters are to advance $100 each in considera- tion of the devise expPained. This sum, tt is directed, shall be paid to the pastor of . Dominic's Church for masses for the ye- se of the soul of the deceased. Should the sisters fail or refuse to pay as required, the executor is directed to sell one of the houses of the estate and deduct 3200 from the sum realized from the sale. Rudolph Elchhorn is named as executor and trustee. Party fences are down in Jersey. ites have control of the democratic ma- chine, and sound money democrats will bolt and run a ticket of their own. Silver- Gladness Comes wit a better understanding of the transient nature of the many phys- ical ills, which vanish before proper ef- forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts— rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis- ease, but simply to a constipated condi- tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt- ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millionsof families, andis everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that itis the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene- ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, that you have the feeuuing arti- cle, which is manufactured by the Cali- fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. _~ If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is ly it usedend gives most. pscsetes pretend THE COUNTRY’S GOOD (Continued from First Page.) the various conventions that followed the republican convention referred to, we ap- peal to our fellow citizens, above and be- yond our belief in our own party, along lines broader and higher than that, and ask that, as a matter of patriotism, there shall be a united front opposed to those who are trifling with the nation’s credit, disturbing her business interests, or appealing to hu- man prejudices as a means of arraying section against section, or class against class, in the hope of gaining political pre- ferment. Nation's Integrity Threatened. Abuse ss not argument, nor mere villifi- cation convincing. Campaigns we have had in which our people differed widely on gcvernmental policy, and where feeling ran high, but never since the adoption of the Constitution, with the single exception of the subject of secession, has the integri- ty of the government been jeopardized. The student of our history would fail in his search to find an instance where the functions of the government were sought to be used in direct opposition not only to the precedents of its own success, but ig the face of economic laws which have been recognized for centuries among civilized People. For the first time since civil war divided this nation, and at a moment when memories of strife were becoming merged into a reawakened brotherhood, a deliber ate effort has been made to array one sec- tion against another, to divide one country as by an arbitrary line, and by fervid ap- pealg to passion and prejudice to array in bitter strife the different social classes that combine to make our national life. Sacrificed lives and treasure have ceased to teach their lesson, and grave is the re- SFonsibiiity upon any man—or men—who Would try, as he stands within the shadow of the rebellion, to deliberately divide the country into sections, her people into class- es, arraying them against each other, either for personal aggrandizement or to subserve Ppelltical ends. Such a course, although in- augurated merely in public discussions, will, If persisted in, threaten the perma- nancy of our institutions. That such an effort will not be successful I firmly be- eve. The superior judgment of our people is not to be reduced by the captious pbrases of political platforms or the hoarse harangues of political demagogues. In the coming struggle we find not only the re- publican party arrayed against the threat- enings and vagaries of those who gathered at Chicago, but contending also against them, and with us are many to whom we have been previously politically opposed, but who are now conscientiously seeking, in their own way, whether directly with u or by the means of a new party organiza- tion, to stamp out repudiation and disorder. Their assistance we shoald welcome and their motives respect. We are here for a reconseeration in party services, and a re- newal of our zeal. We are pledged not only as republicans, but as men and patriots, to stand by the nation in this, its second great peril. There can be an honest difference of opin- fon as to the exact and responsible cause for the present public unrest and uncer- tainty. Sure it is that many elements com- bine to bring about the present condition of affairs, but certain also is {t that the meth- od and manner of condugting the govern- Trent's finances and managing {ts currency are for the time being uppermost in the public mind. There ts no distinction in morals between national and personal integrity. There cannot be found by any process of logig or speech a personal virtue which justifies a national delinquency. Public honesty and private integrity are twin brothers. As the blood ccurses through the human y and by its various functions sustains so does an honest currency, passing through the channels of trade, sustain the prosperity of our citize: and es ish the nation’s integrity. We are contending, therefore, with other objects, for honesty in government, inviolability of contract rights, the assurance to every one, in re- turn for his labor or in an exchange of commodities, of a full and honest dollar, judged by our present standards, which have brought us prosperity in the past and will insure {t in the future. A dollar can only be st when it has full in- trinsle value in itself, or represents that value for which it may be exchanged. To declare a dollar of full value by statute when it contains intrinsically but half such value is as impotent to protect our citl- zens in measuring their labor and pros- perity as it would be for the government to seek to protect the nation in time of war by resolving that we have an army and navy, and making no appropriation therefor. Pr nt Money Standards, At present, with several varieties of money, ard the credit of the government back of each, no citizen need fear that his property or labor will have its value meas- ured by .one standard today and another tomorrow, but, on the contrary, that their full worth are assured to him for all time. We are all creditors, and we are all debt- ors. We cannot Cheat others without cheating ourselves. Our present money standards are neither the result of chance nor conspiracy, but are rather the out- growth of experim and the result of rics of progre: The government her make value nor give it with- therefore, cally its to ask the out a censideration. that it shall create a dollar intrins of half its nominal value and force acceptance at its face value, is To ask, government to actually take our citizens and commit legali The Best Money, The possession of money is only the means of happiness and prosperity, but, of itself, without it were used in exchange, it could 1 ter neither to our nec es. The possession of property, or the laborer’s skill through which we obtain it, are the things of real value, and our money {3 but the scale by which we meas- nts nor our ure them. The nature and kind of such money as we see about us cvery day is the result of trial and experiment from the early days of barbarism. That gold and silver are used is not the result of chance. The form and manner of their using can be made a matter of statute law, Dut their actual and intrinsic value de- pends upon certain economic principles which you and I would be as powerless to oppose as we would be to check the cur- rents of the air. That money must neces- sarily be the best money whose intrinsic value is neerest to its declared value, wherever it may be presented for use. We are told by our political opponents recently assembled at Chicago that the government should coin the silver of the world into dollars actually worth fif three cenis in merchand value, and order them taken as if worth a full dollar. The government must, therefore, present. from its own fund of credit forty-seven cents of value, or by statutory cnactment rob its citizens of that amount of property which they have already accumulated. For my- self I protest against the provisions of a platform which dec ninst the exist- ence of trusts, and same time secks to compel the government to take the en- tire product of one ficld of industry at a specified price, m by an absolute standard, and to d p it at a fictitious one. Such a course is opposed to the spirit of our institutions, and contrary to the functions of government. The nation’s in- tegrity rests not alone upon the surplus in its values, but in the reserve power of labor in its citizens, and their capacity and opportunity for employment. ‘To continu- draw upon the one will as surely dis- sipate it as will false values and abnormal tandards destroy the other. We can prop- erly protest against any political machina- tion which seeks, in accomplishing {ts pur- pose, to overthrow one of the important branches of the government and to prosti- tute the integrity of our highest court to the chicanery of political stri Not more upon the execut! or legisla- tive branches of our government rests the confidence of the people than «pon its ju- diciary. Enforced compliance with law will cease to be possible when its judicial interpretation can be effected by political manipulation. Even the power cf the court to protect property t> which the govern- ment is pledged under the Consiitution has been assailed, and if this authority should be taken away the only substitute would be anarchy, which would subvert the very foundations of society Under Republican Legislation. As republicans we believe that under re- publican legislation there would be no de- ficiency in our treasury, and that there should be no necessity for the issuance of government obligations to meet our present needs. We believe that the doctrine of protection, wisely incorporated into our Statues, would not only yield sufficient revenue for our national needs, but would furnish and assure to our citizens sufficient opportunities for labor, to furnish just re- turns therefor, reviving our industries and establishing prosperity among those who are willing and ready to work. The repub- lican party would be-tntrue ‘to Its history and cowardly to itg. conduct did it not seek to continue a policy which brought the government and» our people to their highest prosperity, and yet there is no sckeme of tariff legislation which can or o.ght to be successful which should not have as its precurspr.a stable monetary policy which would jnsure to the laborer the result of ‘his toff and re-establish our federal credit. E Did time permit, or were these opening moments of our deljberations the proper ones for such remanks, I could, I believe; demonstrate by example the truth of the few general statemeyis so far uttered. The convention, howevery; will speak its voice through the phr: of its platform, mak- ing any words of mine in the hature of a supererogation. A. The thought I would wish to impress upon this convention, mindful of the va- rious provisions of our party's platform not even touched ypan here, is that tho struggle upon which we are about to enter 4s far and beyond in importance that of a mere contention between parti There has never been an instant of time in our country’s history when, on the result of a single eléction, graver issues depended or greater dangers were imminent. The pec- ple will decide aright if we can cause them to conscientiously deliberate upon the prob- lems before us. Our work will not be fin- ished by the official closing of this conven- tion. It will not be finished in whole or sub- stantial part until we shall have re-estab- lisked a national integrity and confidence that shall last as long as the Constitution. The people are only deceived when they express themselves without serious delib- eration. The campaign work of this league will be finished only when it shall have submitted in plain phrases to every voter, in language that ne can under- stand, the following questions: Questions for the Voter. 1. Do you believe in the financial in- tegrity of our government? 2. Do you believe in public as well as pri- vate honesty? 3. Do you think it more justifiable for the government to repudiate its obligations than for an individual to do so? 4. Do you belleve {t is more righteous to seek to obtain full value by means of a dishonest dollar than it is to obtain prop- erty by false pretenses? 5. Do you belleve in one standard of hon- esty for yourself and another for your neighbor? 6. Do you believe in the Constitution of the United States, and that it should be maintained as the best means of preservlag our representative form of government? 7. Or do you believe that society shall be governed by brute force and property destroyed the result of unrestrained passions? T have full faith in the common henesty of the American people. I do not helleve that they can be deceived into doing what is for their own personal disadvantage any more than they can be led to turn. their backs upon a line of policy which has made it possible for them to gather und preserve what they have. I will estecm ft my chiefest honor to have presided over your deliberations if the result of this convention shall tend to reawaken cur patriotism, stimulate our love of country and raise again t8 the gaze of the peo- ples of the earth the banner of our na- tion's honor and integrity. = Ss ACROSS THE OCEAN IN A ROW BOAT.

As their tiny craft entered the dock opposite the consulate “the stars and stripes, defaced and tat- tered, but glorious even. in rags,” the con- sul says, “floated proudly at the stern, as if in. rejoicing in this.mew and hard-won victory on the sea.". 4, As the mariners were without means, the consul gave them food and clothing out of the fund for destitute seamen in foreign lands. A NIGHT Ae 3 IN THE CRATER, periences of Government wists on Mt. Rainier. According to recent advices from Mr. Bailey Willis, geologist in charge of the work of the United States geological sur- vey in the state of Washington, his party spent from July 6 to 10 in examining the drift formations in the region about Seat- ue. The remainder of the month was given to an exploration and examination of the glaciers of Mt. Rainier—the little-known northeastern and eastern glaciers. The party left their base of supplies In Carbon river glacier on the 17th and returned to Geolo- the same point on the 30th, having spent twelve days above the snow line, The examination covered seven glaciers and about two-thirds the circumference of the mountain from nortHwest to south. The ascent began from an elevation of 7,400 feet, and on the 23d camp was made at an elevation of 10,500 feet. From that point to the summit the mountain was sheathed with deeply crevassed ice, and progress was very difficult and dangerous, and the men were repeatedly turned back by im- assable crev © men fell into a 1 by the life-line to all the party were fastened. On at- taining the crater, which occupies the ex- treme summit, refuge was sought from the winter's gaie in the steam caves— cavernous openings between hot rocks,from which steam issues in the midst of the snowy mantle of the crater. The night was spent in the crater, where the choice was between freezing and stewing. AN EXHIBITION SUMMER. Many Shows of Importance in Prog- ress in Central Europe. An interesting report on the Bavarlan industrial and art cxhibition at Nuremberg has been transmitted to the s.ate Depart- ment by Henry ©. Carpenter, a commercial agent of the government. Incidentally, the writer remarks that this is Indced a season of exhibitions in Europe. It is almost im- pessible to visit any city of importance in central Europe durng the present summer without finding there some kind of exhibi- tion. The cost in preparing for that at uremberg was $357,000, spent wholly in erecting the buildings and beautifying the grounds. In the machinery hall is the sovernment railway exhibit, and here, says Mr. Carpenter, one has a good opportunity to study the advancement made in railroad- ng where the government is the owner and where, consequently, thqre is no chance for sharp competition, sych,as America has in this line. While the, progress in railroad- ing has been steady; ang substantial, that perfection of beauty, comfort and gpeed has not been attained which characterizes the industry in the United States. The mil- itary display the agent negards as a failure, and he offers the suggestion that there may be an explanation for it, namely, that under tho inilaence gf the nineteenth cen- tury civilization men sare thinking le: about destruction and more about develop- ment, that the busy jhum of machinery has for them more charms than the roaring of cannon and the clashing of swords. ei Naval, Orders.

Inclement Weather Interfered With the Success of the Parade. The meet of the colored wheelmen, under | the auspices of the Hannibal Athletic | Club, opened last evening with a parade | and watermeion feast, the real opening | commencing today with a series of races at the new athletic park at streets southwest. The races this after- noon embrace a one-mile novice, with a sold medal as a prize, with four other vents, as follows: Mile, open, first prize, gold medal, valued at $19; second prize, sil- ver medal, valued at $5. One-half-mile race for ladies, first prize, ver watch; second prize, rocking chair. Two-mile race for District championship, first prize, bl- eycle; second prize, silver medal. One-mile race for boys under sixteen years of age, | first prize, boy's bicycle; ‘second prize, sweater; third prize, silver medal. The parade last evening was not as large as was expected, the weather keeping many participants away, who thought that the affair would be postponed. Several hours behind the schedule time the parade | started, with about 300 participants, with | gaily decorated wheels and still gayer cos- tumes. At the watermelon feast at the park the prize winners were announced. e Twen- tieth Century Club won the prize banner for making the best display of any or- ganization.
