So it ought So also should the law forbidding the Demo crat to publish lottery advertisements. There are. eight Indian reserva tions in New York, embracing over 125,000 acre3 of good fanning land, hardly any of which is under culti vation. The Indians hold these tracts in common, and stoutly oppose the idea of allotment ineveralty. - It is claimed that there exists in Kansas City the most disastrous bnsiuess depression that has been brought upon any western city in the pasffifteen years. There is said to be 320,000,000 invested in Kansas City that is not paying a dollar in return. - The Germau government runs the mail, the expre'ss business, the rail roads, the telegraplis, the schools, the army, and most all the factories that supply this vast body. It makes, not only the soldiers' guns and swords, it manufactures his coats and trousers and helmets even his bread. The Afghan Ameer's method of vengeance on his rebel prisoners is pretty highly developed. One batch, numbering 300, were put to death three a day. One of the trio was always hanged dressed in yellow and green, another was dressed in black aud blown from a gun, and the third was dressed in rel and cut up with a sword. ' A SHIP HEAVING TO. How Seamen Accomplish this Perilous Feat in a Storm. The operation of "heaving to," per formed by nearly every sailing vessel caught on the coast during the recent storm, is never resorted to by mer chant vessels .until it becomes abso lutely necessary. The moment a ves sel is "hove to" she becomes practic ally stationary, the object being merely to keep her "head to the seas." Among the many vessels caught out side during the gale was every type of craft known to "deep water voyages." There were East India clippers, "West India brigs, barks, barkentjnes and schooners, and a few steamers. Many of the East India packets had been out over 120 days. For many days prion to the storm the sky had been overcast Only occasionally would the sun appear, and then for so short a time as to render a catch "sight" well nigh out of the question. In consequence many ships had been running by "dead reckoning," making the supposed position of the vessel a most uncertain one. Under such conditions were vessels overtaken by the terrible northeaster. Wind and sea aided each other in making navigation perilous, the seas threatening at every moment to roll over on the decks of the fleeing ves sels. Some craft, perhaps better able to stand the seas hold on, steering on a supposed true course for port. In laying off this course the base has been taken from a supposed true posi tion of the ship. Instead of sighting the entrance, the lookout is heard calling, "Breakers ahead!" To one unacquainted with a seafaring life the horror which accompanies such a sound beggars description. Let it be night time and the horror is increased. There is but one thing to do, and that quickly to call, "All hands save the ship!" The vessel is in a lee shore, the gale is blowing her right on, and unless she can be made to beat up in the wind, head off, and clear the coast she will beach. TTn compa fivprvhrwlv with a rush; half dressed, half dazed, lvnf fnllv filiTa f- la linri rm. moment the seamen reach the deck the cutting wind makes wide awake all hands. "Hard down the helm! Let fly the head sheets, lee head and main and weather cross-jack braces! Spanker sheet!" As fast as the orders fly from the bridge the men jump to their sta tions. Hound comes the great ship, and up into the wind. The head sails flap with tremendous force, threaten ing to fly out of the leech ropes with every roll. Now the spanker is being hauled a-weather. She feels it, and as the stern flies off her head comes right up into the mass of seethiug waters. "Bound in the lee head and main aud weather cross-jack braces !" Al ready the men are at their places, and up come the weather-yard arms into the wind. The vessel is now broad side to the seas. It is xa question of life or death whether she will stop. If she but continue to come up all is welL A drag has-Teen gotten over from forward. To it is bent a hawser leading through a quarter-chock. The drag is well away from the Bhip. On to the hawser jump the qrew. Away they go with a rush. The drag hawser is run right to the bows; and at the same time the bow comes up rap idly. Not a moment too soon. A great sea the next instant lifts the ship high into the air. Had it caught her "broad side to" it would have plunged -tons upon tons of green seas upon the decks. But the great craft's bow has met it She rose as the wave ad vanced and plunged heavily forward as it' rushed under her. Now is the time to catch her. Sharp up go the yards on the head and main.. The headsheets are hauled well aft, the helm carefully tended, the spanker eased up slightly; the ship feels the canvas, small as the amount on her is; she reaches forward, staggers for a moment, then slowly works her way off through' sea after sea. As soon as she is far enough out to Bea the vessel is brought up into the wind, off comes the foretop- mast staysail, foretopsail and spanker. A close-reefed maintopsail and main spanker alone hold her up, and all attempt to fall off is counteracted bv the position of the rudder. Should the wind still continue to increase in violence, the topsail will be-gooae-wingeL This latter sail is kept on as long as possible, because of its being above the waves. Under a main spencer" alone the ship has but little opportunity to feel the tyind, the waves serving as a bulwark, fehould. however, a goose-winged top sail and main spencer prove too much, tarpaulins placed in the lee mizzen may hold hex up.

ThPr nveav trill tne mizzen and mam, and then trust to riding out to a sea-anchor. This alone can save the vessel. Let her once fall off, get into the trough of the sea, and the .consequence will be "i"v iu. me uuu worn ol ine seaman, "Foundered." New York Times. TELEGRAPHIC . Specials to The Astorian.

My face, about the eyes, ould be swollen and scabbed, my hands and a part of my body would be raw sores for weeks at a time, my flesh would seem so rotted that I could roll pieces from between my fingers as large as a pea. One physician called it type Dnjenn and gave me medicine accord- vmovI 1 ingly; but salt rheum cannot be cured in that way. Finally I bought a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla.
