Recently Senator Pike of New Hampshire, while talking with a friend suddenly threwup his head, gasped, and without a word fell totiie ground dead. General McClellan went out for a drive, came home and died in his chair. William H. Van derbilt is conversing with Mr. Gar rett of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail road in his own house, -and suddenly falls to the floor dead. A prominent citizen of Boston hast ens to catch a train at the depot, and dies before the train leaves the station. A well known society lady fell dead. of Hartford, while dancing at a reception suddenly becomes faint, and before she can be conveyed from the room has ceased to breathe. These are a few of the sudden deaths of which we hear, but the vast number of which we do not hear is thousands. Are they all caused by heart disease? Do the mysterious beatings of that delicate instrument, that works day and night without ceasing, stop of their own accord, and thus bring death at once! Mr. Henry T. Dodge resides at East Providence, It. I. About six months ago he felt a shortness of breath, a peculiar faintness, and occasional shooting pains at his heart. He noticed that his pulse was irregular and would once in a while skip a beat. These T--symptoms JM )fjk were not continuous, and some days he would feel as well as usual, but at other times he would be painfully aware that he had a heart and the doctor's call. that it was diseased. Finally his body began to bloat, and he cousulted a number of doctors. They all pro nounced his trouble heart disease, but would not prescribe for him, be cause they said it was beyond their reach. Mr. Dodge then went to Dr. George D. Wilcox, one of the best phy sicians in New England. After a care ful examination Dr. Wixcox told him there was but one thing that could cure him, and to try that as a last re sort. "With but little hope Mr. Dodge consented. In two days the bloating uisuppeareu, uie pain ueparteu, ine pulse became full and regular, and Mr. Dodge is well and in perfect health to-day because Hunt's Heraedy saved him. Dr. Wilcox, in conversation with the writer on this subject, said: "In a careful observation extending over twenty years I have found Hunt's Remedy in vast numbers of cases of an organic nature exceedingly effi cient and acting verv promptly. Its power is best illus trated in valvular heart lesions with dropsy, also in sim ple enlargement of the heart without valvular disease. When the heart be comes weakened and unable to cir culate the blood, Hunt's Remedy is so valuable that I one out of five, nave oeen in me habit of naming it " Heart Tonic." This is what one of the ablest phy sicians in this countrjTsays about this wonderful remedy, which has won its way to such popularity solely on its merits. One out of every five men women and children has functional disease of the heart, and one out of every eight organic disease of the heart! This is a terrible fact, but a solemn fact, nevertheless, and it is cause for gratitude that a remedy has been found which will not only check the disease in time, but prevent its increase after the first symptoms are observed.

On Saturda- last there .arrived 'J in this city a gentleman who is delegated by the fishermen of Newfoundland and Labrador to visit various islands in British Co lumbia waters and also to extend his inquiries regarding the future settlement of his constituents upon Alaskan territory. For the past two days ho has been engaged in vestigating the capabilities and taking data upon the resources of the Choumagin and Aleutian group of islands, and has received valua ble information from persons in this city who are acquainted with these spots. In conversation with a Chroni cle reporter the following informa tion was given by the fishermen's representative: I have been sent by the fisher men's association of Newfoundland to select locations in either Brit ish Columbia or Alaska where they can make new homes. In Labra dor the catch of fish for the past and present season has been so small that the people are starving. The fishery complications between Canada and the United States havo tended to create bad feeling between tho Newfoundland cod fishers and the Americans, and they wish to come to the Pacific coast where there are no troubles. There will be about GOO or 700 people to emigrate as soon as T can decide on a good situation. The' are all fishermen and their families. The Canadian government has nothing to do with this movement, and, in fact, my departure from Newfoundland wa9 kept secret. From what I have learned here I am inclined to think that the Coumagin and Aleutian islands of Alaska will be the best place to locate the fishermen. These isl ands are in the immediate vicinity of the immense codfish banks of Alaska and there is no reason why the Newfoundland men cannot make their new homes upon them. The climate is no worse than that of their present homes, while the supply of fish is reported to be im mense. There must be banks as yet untouched, and from cotnpe petent authority I believe the em igration will be a success. On the Queen Charlotte r.M 1 other islands in the British Cuiuin bia waters there will be room :" r man' families. The waters of the sound and in the vicinity of the United States boundary line teem with black cod and halibut. 1 am leaving for Victoria, B. C, by the railroad to Portland to visit these islands, and if I can obtain favorable locations I will return to Newfoundland and bring a num ber of fishermen during the next few months. In the spring of 188S I intend to visit Alaska and ascer tain personally the best place for emierrants to live. Our New foundland and Labrador fishermen are a hardy race, and although they are sorry to leave their old home, they feel that a better field for labor awaits them on tiie Pa cific ocean. S'. F. Chronicle, V. LOOKING AHEAD. That president Cleveland hopes to make an inroad upon the Re publican strength on the Pacific coast begins to be apparent and attracts attention among the poli ticians. His decision that one of the new cruisers should be isiiilt at San Francisco, notwithstanding that the bid of tho Union Iron Works was the highest submitted, following as it does the appoint ment of a Californian as consul general to Paris an office consid ered among the most desirable in the whole diplomatic service as well as other favors shown to that section of the country, reveals the fact that the president really has designs upon the party opposed to him out there, and intends, if possible, to bring California solidly into the Democratic fold. This is in pursuance of the poli cy that has actuated him for some time past of gaining outside of the state of New York as much as possible. He is not satisfied with the outlook of his own state. The mugwumps are not so fond of him as they were, and instead of mak ing more friends within the Dem ocratic party he has awakened the strongest opposition among those who will have an influence in shaping the action of the next del egation from 'that state to the na- tional Democratic convention. He will not have the aid and cousel of Daniel Manning, should he .essav to make the race again. There are now two other states besides California in which he hopes to get a good foothold. They are Massachusetts and Mich igan. He has been particularly attentive to appointments of citi zens of those two commonwealths. They have been given a number of important places during tne last few months, among thp.m some valued offices in the government in the District of Columbia posi tions which, in view of the home rule plank in the last national Democratic platform, it would be supposed the president would give exclusively to citizens ot tne District, and the leading Demo crats there aic very much afraid that he will even appoint a new postmaster from the outside, a candidate from Michigan being at present most feared. Thus, with a little encourage ment in the way of federal pat ronage, Mr. Cleveland believes that he will be able to get the electoral votes of California, Mass achusetts and Michigan, in addi tion to the Democratic should he 1SSS. solid south and other states in be the c the north, indidate in High Price of Meat. "How do you explain the fact that meat is as high as it ever was while cattle on the hoof are sell ing for less than they ever did?" was the question put to G. A. Stanley ami K. Lolhholz, of the North Side, and J. Ford, of the South Side, yesterday- The re ply of each was almost the- same, so it will answer to quote onl- one. "The trouble is, said butch er Lothholz, "the people won't eat coarse meat. lhey want lite porterhouse and sirloin stakes and second cut roasts, and the price has to be put on the good meat." Chicayo Tribune. MURDERED BY PREJUDICE. Thousands of men die every day who might be saved. Prejudice has murdered many a man and woman. If it were believed that the sum of disease could be reduced by pli3sic much would be gained. The night mare of death would not frighten us as it does. In our modern civiliza tion we ought reasonably to expect disease to settle upon us'because we do so much to attract it; because we so often and so steadily expose our selves to it. At the same time we all ought to understand, as a part of our rudimentary education, that to save ourselves" from the effects of such exposure some kind of fortifica tion should be built around our vital forces lest the enemy carry us, as it were, by a sudden onslaught. For many years tho unprejudiced have used'BBAXDRETirs Pills in this way and they have proved a mo?t effect ive wall against tho approach of dis ease. Stop the daily murders we had almost said suicides by using these pills. They speak for them selvesas they act. When every thing else has failed Bhajidretii's Pills have saved lives. They are to be had at every drug store.

I had good medical attendance, but it failed to restore me to the enjoyment of my for mer health. I then tried the most renowned physi cians of Louisville, Ky., but all to no purpose, where upon I was induced to try Simmons Liver Eegulator.
