WEST HEED OUT.
Sir Ohas. Tapper Likely to Succeed Him.
Washington, Oct. 30. Minis
ter Phelps cables that he has re
turned to London from Hatfield
house, where he has been in con
sultation with Salisbury respecting
the letter of minister Sackville
West. The department of state
bas received a cablegram from him
fully explaining the situation,
which will be laid before the cabi
net meeting to-day.
Montreal, Oct. SO. Several
cabinet ministers, who are in the
city confirm the- report that Sir
Charles Tupper, who is now in
London as high commissioner of
Canada, has been appointed Brit
ish minister to "Washington, to re
place lord Sackville-West.
London, Oct. 30. The Stand
ard says: "It is understood that
lord Sackville has intimated his
readiness to place his resignation
in the hands-oflord Salisbury,"
The result of the conference be
tween lord Salisbury and Ameri
can minister Phelps regarding the
Sackville letter is made public to
day. Phelps informed Salisbury that
the president regarded with
marked surprise and dissatisfaction
the conduct of lord Sackville in
replying cateqorically to a series
of suggestions and inquiries
couched in language quite im
proper for the British envoy to
entertain. Phelps further said
that the American government left
the matter of Sackville's recall or
withdrawal in the hands of the
English ministry.
In reply lord Salisbury said that
he deplored the indiscretion of the
British envoy and expressed
strongly the regret of her majesty's
government that so untoward an
incident should have arisen in the
diplomatic relations of the two
powers.
Washington, Oct. 30. By di
rection of the president the secre
tary of state to-day informed lord
Sackville-West that for causes
heretofore made known to her
majesty's government his continu
ance in his present official position
in the United States was no longer
acceptable to this government and
would consequently be 'detri
mental to the relations between
the two countries.

Among the continental armies
the German soldiers have the long

step. It is eighty centimeters.
The step of the French, Austrian,
Be'gian, Swiss and Swedish is seventy-five

Russian seventy-one centimeters.
Thirty centimeters make a foot.

General Whoatcroft Nelson, says: My
experience in the English army as well
as in America, convinces me that noth
ing so thoroughly purificss the blood or
adds to health, vigor and life as Ack
er's English Blood Elixir." This great
Remedy is sold under a posit ue guar

Wo hold positive proot that Acker's
English Blood Elixir cures all blood
poisons where cheap sarsaparillas and
so-called purifiers fail. Knowing this,
we will sell it to all who call at our

J. V7. Conn, Drugget.
The most original suicide yet
comes lrom Yadkin county, N. C,
where one Rufe Revis broke, into
his neighbor's still room, and put
ting one end of a syphon in a bar
rel of whisky and the other in his
mouth, got so entirely full that he
had not space for breath.
CARELESS MOTHERS.
.Many mothers have permitted their
ohldren to die before their eyes when
they might have been saved. Any
mother who keeps house without a bot
tle of Acker's English Baby Soother at
hand, runs a risk which she may some
time regret. It has saved the lives of
thousands of children, and is doing so
every year. J . W. Conn, Druggist.
The running of a locomotive is
becoming a position of more re
sponsibility, while the dangers of
the position are becoming less.
And with these changes the more
important is it becoming to have
competent men on the footboard.
A few years ago the engineer had
no air-brake to take care of, but
he might get killed for the want
of one. If he wanted to stop bad,
he whistled "down brakes," put
her in the "breechin," and waited
for the brakemen to get in their
work. Now every improvement
puts more cares on his head and
hand. He has the care of and
handles a complicated brake, he is
responsible for the observance of
a thousand signals, the heat of the
cars has been asked from his sup
ply, and he will soon have another
little engine and a dynamo to care
for; yet with all these things to
look after, unless one stops to
think a moment, an engineer is
looked upon as a man who has a
soft snap.

If the object of the tariff is to
lighten the farmer's burdens as it
claimed, -why not reduce it on
sugar and rice, which the farmer
has to buy, fnstead of removing it
from wool, which he raises to sell?
The Mills bill provides that sugar
be protected 08 per cent., and rice
100 per cent., and that wool shall
have no protection at all.

Doctor Walter K. Hammond says : "Af
ter a long experience I have come to
tho conclusion that two-thirds of all
deaths from coughs, pneumonia and
consumption, might be avoided if Ack
er's English Cough Remedy were only
carefully used in time." This wonder
ful Remedy is sold under a positive
guarantee by J. W. Conn. Druggist.
There is a new high-wire act.
Two men starting from different
ends of a slack wire meet and
pass each other, going by on a
waltz step. A woman actually
dances on the wire, and a man
trots across it with a companion
upright on his shoulders.

According to the Russian cen
sus taken in 1884 and 1885, the
population of the empire at that
time was 108,787,000. These fig

of the field it is not possible to
