LOST PUBLIC MEN- What the Death of so Many Great Kea Means Are We as a Nation la Banger? """ "America is losing its prominent saen very fast," was the remark of a well known Englishman who is now visiting this country, and he was right. Sumner, "Wilson, Phillips, "Washburn, Carpenter, and a host of others have departed, and John A. Logan has just passed away. But has it never occurred to the reader that the cause of the deaths -of these public men was in every case the same? And has it occurred to you that Manning, Uut ler, Blaine, and a host- of others are treading the same Toad? The great American scourge, to-day, is kidney disease, and it is by no means confined to public men. Thousands of men whom we see every America's loss, day have inherited it from their parents and do not know it. Innumerable women who are delicate are afflicted with it at this moment, and think it is simply " weakness." Little children whose kidneys have been injured by scarlet fever are suffering from it, usually unknown to their parents. Its symp toms are a tired feeling and a desire to sleep; a pale complexion; uncer tain appetite ; faintness at the pit of the stomach; shifting pains, some times in the back, sometimes in the limbs, and again in the head; plentiful or scanty urine, with the scum on top or a sediment and brickdust in the bottom; a burning sensation in passing and skin hot at times and clammy at others. Any one of these things indicate disor dered kidneys, which are the first stage of Bright's disease. They must be checked. Captain Greenwood, of the steamer Kanawha, had these troubles in an aggravated form; he usod Hunt's Remedy and is in perfect health to d'av. Rev. Charles Pike.of Waterbury, Conn., was greatly reduced in the same manner and was "suffering se verely." He used Hunt's remedy and was cured. Mrs. Alexander L. Nichols, of Phe nix, R. I., after passing through allcAPT. greenwood. the suffering which any woman is ever called upon to endure, was cured by Hunt's Remedy. The son of Cornelius B. Smith of the State Department at Albany, N. Y., was given up fo die by no less than four physicians, but was cured by Hunt's Remedy. These instances could be prolonged indefinitely. Two things are certain: First Kid ney troubles, which always end in Bright's disease, unless checked, are fearfully prevalent. Second They can be cured by using the remedy above named. With these truths in view, why men and women will be so heedless and allow symptoms to run along until they end in agony or death wo cannot understand. We certainly advise all to think carefully on this subject, and act without delay.

Republi can's Santa Fe special: Two years ao Albert A. Mead came from Iowa and located mines at Good Hope, near Tres Piedras, N. M. A short time after locating the claims Mead, in company with Fred and Harvey Mead, his kins men, from Aleda, Ills., and Frank Reede and G. Smith, of Chicago, incorporated the property under the laws of Illinois, under the name of the Las Luces Milling and Mining company. A mill was erected, and the mines worked until a few months ago, when Al bert Mead became dissatisfied, claiming the company was at tempting to swindle him out of his share of the property. He brought suit to regain possession of the property, and went to Santa Fe to live. On "Wednesday he left Santa Fe for Meadville camp, for the purpose of securing papers he had left in the company's bunk house, and which were needed in his suit. Mead first made known his presence to Fred Mead and M. Hands, who were in Tres Piedras on Friday morning, and were re turning to camp. When tneir team was within about fifty yards of the company's cabin, Albert stepped out from behind some brush, Avinclipstcr in hand, and ordered a halt. Albert then failed Hands, and ordered him to call Harvey Mead and Joe Down ing out of the cabin, saying he de sired them to keep out of the cabin until he (Albert) could search for some papers and money which he had concealed there in. About this time Har vey Mead and m Downing heard the commotion, and both came out of the cabin. As they appeared, Albert fired 'and Downing fell dead. A second shot from his Winchester killed Harvey Mead. Turning toward the wagon, Albert then opened fire on the occupants thereof, his third shot fatally wounding Hands. By this time Fred Mead had se cured a six-shooter which Hands had, and attempted to fire at Al bert Alead, but tue weapon snapped and could not be dis charged. Albert fired at Frd five times in rapid succession, ami while he was thus engaged Frpil Mead was running toward him. Finally the two desperadoes clinched, and a struggle ensued for the weapon of death. At last Fred Mead got the Winchester from Albert, and with it shot him through 'the heart. Hands died five hours later. Albert A. Mead's body was buried face downward, and the remains of the other three were interred at Tres Piedras, the coroner's inves tigation resulting in the acquittal of Fred Mead. XBULY A HOUSEHOLD 'H.EMEDY. 240 Behford At., Bbooklyn, ) 3 N. Y., Mar. 12, 1884. J I have used Allcock's Ponous Plasters for the last twenty years. They are truly a household remedy. If one of my children has a cold and wheezes, I put an Allcock's Pobous Plaster on the chest and one be tween the shoulder bladeB. If any of the children have croupy coughs, or coughs of any kind, I place the Plaster close up around the throat; the soothing effect is apparent almost always in two hours, if they have a disordered stomach, a Plaster placed iust below the chest bones aaakes digestion perfect in half a day. lfthero is any looseness of the "bowels, accompanied by coldness of the sltin, two Allcock's Porous Plasters applied over the stomach cure in from two to fivo hours. I notice particularly- that these Plas taranever abrade the skin or cause the slightest irritation. From my own experience I know they never fail for rheumatism, paina in the back or lumbago. C. Middlsbrook. There is said to bo a man in Leadville, Col., who can tell by the tingling sensation in his fin gers when he walks over a body of ore. He is a living mineral de tector.

An attempt to stretch the pow ers of government in any coun try, where the principles of liberty are understood, is always followed by queer results. The Canadian Tovcrnment has undertaken to give the Canadian Pacific a monopoly of the transcontinental traffic. This means that it will not allow any parallel or cross lines to be constructed that will interfere with it. Under this pledge to attempt to construct a railroad becomes an act of rebel lion. It is in this condition that the people of Manitoba find them selves now. They want to build a cross line to the American fron tier, which would give a secpnd outlet, or more properly speaking, two American outlets for their products. But the Canadian authorities refuse to permit them to do so. There has been some talk of military force. It would be impossible to conceive a more ridiculous spectacle than the ap pearance on the scene ol soldiers to kill people who may engage in building the modern highway, known as a railroad. It would be impossible to imagine a more ut terly indefensible exercise of authority. The London papers were quick enough to see the ab surd phase of the question, and threw cold water on the more irre pressible of the Canadian politi cians. The indications are that legal Jinessc is all that remains for the coercion of the Manitobians, and that that will fail of'its ob ject. Homestead Entries. A general principle of long standing and considerable im- uortance in the administration- of public land matters is reaffirmed by acting-secretary Muldrow, his ruling in the case of the James Young homestead entry, Salt Lake City. Its purport is that no amount of cultivating improvement, and no showing of good faith in otuer respects, can atone for lack of actual residence upon land sought to be secured, and that even actual residence does not give validity to a claim except so lar as it snows an in tention to make such residence permanent beyond the acquire ment of title. Young had culti vated hfty acres ot his claim, con structed irrigating ditches, and built a house in which ho person ally lived. His improvements were valued at from 1,000 to $1,200. His family remained on a nlace owned bv him a half mile distant, and it was that he designed to claim as a place of soon as he had made in evidence abandon his residence as his title se- cure. Contest was made by one Van Nostrum, a professional con testant, who proposed gaining some preference rights and selling them out. " The local officers and commissioners decided for Young, and against Van Nostrum, and the acting secretary orders a modifi cation ot this decision, lie says while Van Nostrum cannot acquire any rights in the matter, the gov ernment is not stopped from action upon information it has gained, and he directs cancellation of Youns's claim.

T., Aug. 30.- To-night about 10:30 o'clock, while the sky was overcast with heavy clouds and a light rain was falling, a meteor was seen by a number of persons to shoot from the heavens directly overhead. It struck the electric light wires on the south side of Main street, between Howard and Mill streets, in the very heart of the city, cutting one of the wires in two and bursting into a thousand frag ments. Those who saw the strange phenomenon say that when it struck the ball of fire looked to be ten feet in diameter. An ef fort has been made to-night to find some of the pieces., but as the street is covered with mud and water the search has been fruitless. THE GREAT REGUItTOR PURELY VEGETABLE. Are You Bilious?
