now at Portland, picked up the ship
wrecked crew of the Italian brigan

medals struck for the rescuers, one
of whom, Michael Galvin, is now here.
On arrival here Captain Reed, of the
Starbuck, met him and immediately
had tho proper authorities at Wash
ington informed of his whereabouts,
so that the medal might be sent ont.
It has just been received here and
presented to Galvin, who is now fish
ing for George & Barker. It is al
ways pleasant to record any worthy
action, and the recipient is to be con
gratulated on this acknowledgment
by a foreign government of his
bravery in helping to save the life of
his ill-fated fellow sailors. The medal
is a handsome silver one bearing the
portrait of king Humbert and on the
reverse an inscription with the bear

Catarrh to Consumption.
Catarrh in its destructive force stands next
to and undoubtedly leads on to consumption,
it is therefore singular that those afilicted
with this fearful diseaso should not mako it
the object of their lives to rid themselves of
it. Decoptivo remedies concocted by ignorant
pretenders to medical knowledge hao
weakened the conGdonco of tho great
majority of sufferers in all advertised rem
edies. They becoino resigned to a lifo of
misery rather than torture themselves with
doubtful palliatives.
But this will never do. Catarrh must be
met at every staga and combated with all
our might. In many cases tho diseaso has
assumed dangerous symptoms. Mho bones
and cartilage of the nose, tho organs of h oar
ing, of seeing and of tasting eo affected as to
bo useloss, the uvula so elongated, tho thront
so inflamed and irritated as tj produce a
constant and distressing cough.
Saxkobd's judical Cl'be meets every
phase of Catarrh, from a simple head cold to
tho most loathsomo and destructive stages.
It is local and constitutional. Instant in re

that there has been no run of salmon
in July, bnt there will be a run yet."
"What makes you think so?"
"Well, the dogfish nlwaya come in
with the last of the 'spring' salmon.
Every year since I've been on the
river there is a big lot of dogfish
comes in about the time the big salm
on run in July is over. This year
there are scarcely any dogfish at all
