A Striko Ended That Cost Millions Unsatisfactory T.-vi of the Nrw CrnNer. St. Louts, July 21 Train men on the Vnndnlia & St Louis train due here last uiirbt. but which did not ar rive until between 12 and 1 a. m. report that at Long Point, this side of Indianapolis, the conductor discovered four rough lookiug men on the rear plat form of the baggage car. He ordered them off, but as tho train started to go they got on the rear platform of the tender, where they were all again found when the train reached Green up Crossing, where they were forcibly ejected from the train and moved away, but as the train was passing a clump of bushes near the Crossing they opened lire from revolvers and sent some twenty bullets whistling through the baggage and express cars and passenger coaches. Luckily nobody was shot but there were sev eral narrow escape. The tiain was brought to a halt, and a posse of cit izens organized at once and immedi ate search wa3 begun. It is thought the object was to rob the train. AX ADVERSE T.EPORT. Washington, July 22. In his re port to secretary Whitney of the trial of the guns of the cruiser Atlanta Capt Bunco says not only were the gun carriages disabled, as heretofore reported, but also tho arrangement of the battery is bad, as some of the guns have to be abandoned by the crews that other guns may be fired at the target. Commenting on the re sults of the battery trial, secretary Whitney said: ''The reports are not very favorable as to the first trial of gunsbut as yet no matters of great moment have turned up. The J trouble to my mind is this: If two iuuuus ui uer nailery imeiuis reMl.l. what would a dozen do? And it is this that we are called upon to ascr- i. tain. She is meant to b n fiHiti . snip, and must bo further tested. She should have a cruise at sea sufficient ly to subject her to a trial of all weathers. Her battery should be tested by actual firing until its work ing characteristics are determined and its defects are discovered. For these purposes the board should be appointed and the matter settled at the earliest practicable day.' A STUBBORN CONTEST. Pittsburg, July 22. The coke strike just ended was one of the most stubbornly contested battles ever fought between capital and labor. For eleven weeks and four days the fight went on. The amount of money lost by such enforced idleness cannot be calculated, but it reaches millions. When the strike began fonr-fifths of the 11,C3D men in the region had money of their own, but few of them now have money enough to take them out of the district if they wanted to go. The operators are also very heavy losers; the pumps have been kept running at all pits: the pit and yard bosses, superintendents and clerks have been drawing salaries and mules getting fat on oats and hay that they did not earn. At West Leisenring, whero the Pinkerton men have been stationed, the expense has been over $1,000 a day since the striko began. Besides this the ovens have become badly out of repair; fully one-third of them all over the region have to be overhauled before coal can again be put into them. Then, too, tho coke trade has fallen off, and it will take time and money to build it up. Tho estimated actual expense to operators has been from $700,000 to $1,000,000, while their loss entire will foot up over $2,000,000. Salisbury's response. London, July 22. Tho marquis of Salisbury, replying to a deputation which called on him to urge the gov ernment to take some action to pro tect British trade from the effect of foreign competition assisted by bounties, said it was impossible to speak too strongly, of the injustice which the foreign bonnty system in flicted upon British workmen. The European conference, ho said, would soon consider the matter, nnd in the meantime ho could only say that there were two ways for Englishmen to deal with their assailants in this centest: if reasoning failed, English men might return blows. WANT TO SECEDE. London, Ont, July 22 At the annual session of the district assem bly, K. of L., held last night, after a lengthy discussion on tho subject of the separation of Canadian Knights from the American body in the mat ter of jurisdiction, a resolution wa3 passed urging the secession of tho body from the United States general assembly and the formation of a gen eral assembly for Canada, . the latter body to have complete and unre stricted powers to adjudicate on all questions and business conected with the order.

That is to say, your lungs. Also your breathing machinery. Very wonderful machinery it is. Not only the larger air-passages, but the thous ands of little tubes and cavities lead ing from them. When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, your lungs cannot half do their work. And what they do, they can not do well. uau it com, cougn, crouD, pneu monia, catarrh, consumption or any of the family of throat and nose and head and lung obstructions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid of. There is just one sure way to get rid of them. rthat is to take Boschee's German Syrup, which any druggist will sell you at 75 cents a bottle. Even if everything else has failed you, you may depend upon this lot certain. Real Estate Traasfers. Hiram Brown and wife to the As toria Gaslight Co., lots 3 and 4, block 2, McCiure's Astoria; $1.

Catarrh in its destructive forco stands noxt to and undoubtedly lead3 on to consumption. It is therefore singular that those afflicted with this fearful disease should not make it the object of their lires to rid themselves of it. Deceptive remedies concocted by ignorant pretondoH to medical knowledge hare weakened the confidence of tho great majority of sufferers in all advertised rem edies. They become resigned to a life of misery rather than torture themselres with doubtful palliative. But this will nerer do. Catarrh must be met at every stage and combated with all our might. In many cases the disease has assumed dangerous symptoms. Tho bones and cartilago of the nose, the organs of hear ing, of seeing and of tasting so affected as to be useless, tho uvula so elongated, tho throat po inflamed and irritated as to produce a constant and distressing cough.
