Long-Standing Blood Diseases are cured by the persevering use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This medicine is an Alterative, and causes a radical change in the system The process, in some cases, may not be quite so rapid as in others ; but, with persistence, tho result is certain. Read these testimonials : " For two years I suffered from a se vere pain in my right side, anil had other troubles caused by a torpid liver and dyspepsia. After Riving .several medicines a fair trial without a cure, I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was greatly benefited by the lirst bottle, and after taking five bottles I was com pletely cured." John "W. Benson, 70 lawrcuce St., Lowell, Mass. Last May a large carbuncle broke out on my arm. The usual remedies had no effect and I was confined to my bed for ight weeks.

"I Jiad a dry scaly humor for years, and suffered terribly; and. as my broth er and sister were similarly afllicted, I presume the malady is hereditary. Lust winter. Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina, Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer's Sarsapaiilla, and continue it for a year. For five mouths I took it daily. I ha e not had a blemish upon mv bodv for the last three months." T. E. Wiley, HG Chambers st., New York City. " Last fall and winter I was troubled with a dull, heavy pain in my side. I did not notice it much at first, but it gradually grew worse until it became almost unbearable. During tho latter part of this time, disorders of the stom ach and liver increased my troubles. I began -taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and, after faithfully 'continuing tho use o! this medicino for some mouths, the pair disappeared and I was completely cured." Mrs. Augusta A.

A Fine Strnct'ire D-.tioye:l Iiy the Flood. The volume of water in the "Willam ette al midnight last night says the Salem Statesman of the 4th, was prob ably as large as it was at its highest point in 1SG1, although the height of the water was probably from three to five feet less. The most disastrous result of the present Hood, so far as Salem is concerned, is the washing out of the second pier from the Marion county side of the big bridge to Polk county and the consequent collapse of the two longest spans of the bridge resting upon it. "What was the pride of two counties now lies in Kaiser's lottom below Salem. At just twenty minutes to two yesterday afternoon the south one of the canter piers on the Marion county side bwuug around, apparently from the bottom, bent and cracked, just above the water line and cntshed to the bottom of the river, followed by the two main spans of the big bridge. The crash was awful. Water was thrown high in tho air, and in a few seconds the better part or the Crosby street structure was float ing down with the stream. The boom ing of the falling bridge was probably heard all over town, and hundreds were blanding on the banks viewing the ruins. When the piers gave way there were perhaps a hundred people tanding under the trees watching the lxiling. Toaining water as it dashed great logs against the bridge. A moment In-fore it fell a small log was hurled ngainst the pier and splintered. Afler the bridge fell the excite ment was high Tor a time. Peo ple were running hero and there. Some said there were people on the bridge and others said no. It is said that just a few moments before the bridge fell there were seen two men on it. They had heard limbers crash ing, and just as they stepped from the last span going to the Salem side it fell behind them. Had they been one step later in leaving it they must have been carried down to immediate de struction. The ones who thns mirac ulously escaped were Bill Chambers, ji cabman, and a young man named L. GooLsby. They said they heard the timbers cracking and walked rapidly over the long spau, and just as they stepped from it, it fell. The north pier stood a half hour swaying from the immense pressure below, and then toppled over with a mighty noise. The two spans that fell first were 500 feet in length, the east one being 270 and the center one 2.'JU. They fell up stream and were soon out of sight, being carried quickly with the current. All Monday after noon the frame approach on the west w:ls cracking and giving way in places. Driftwood caught in it, and the pres sure wjis so great by 5 o'clock that it too gave way and fell with a roar. This left nothing but the west span standing. It was 200 feet long, and w:is supported by two piers at either end. It stood the strain until 11:40 last night, when the iron and concrete piers gave way beneath it, and it, too was precipitated into the wales be neath. The bridge and the first two piers fell tip stream, indicating that the cause of the fall of Hie structure was that tho piers had been under mined by the swiftly running stream. In front of the last span the drift breakers were still standing at 2 o'clock this morning, but they were not very firm and will perhaps not be standing now. All that is left today to tell the story or the big free bridge is the Center-street approach and its two supporting piers.

Louis Cyr is the greatest knowu professional lifter of heavy weights that this country has ever produced. He is a French Canadian, and was born at St Johns, Quebec, on October 11, 18G3, which makes him now in his twenty-seventh year. He is a man of remarkable development, as will be seen by the following physical meas urements: Height, 5 feet 10) inches; chest, inflated, 58 inches; waist 48 inches; biceps, 21J inches; thigh, 32 inches; calf 24 inches; collar 22 inches; weightj 253 pounds. He has not been prominently before the public more than a few years, but the feats he has performed in public in differ ent parts of Canada have excited the wonder of all beholders, while the best of them have taken place in the presence of regu larly npointcd judges, who have vouched for the correctness of the weights lifted. The more important are as follews: On October 1, 18S8, at lierthierville, Canada, he raised 3,356 pounds of pig iron placed on a plat form, pushing up with back, amis and legs until the plank was lifted clear off tho trestles uikhi which it rested. On November 2, i:iS9, at St Henri, near Montreal, he lifted a dumbbell weigh ing libo, iKMinds with one hand rrom the ground to the shoulder, and then pushed it slowly up from the shoulder to arms length above tho shoulder, using only one hand; same time and place, lifted a pair of dumblclls weighing 4 10 ounds attached to a cord about three feet long, witli one linger. His physical development ex cels that of Ixith Sampson and San dow, whose feats at the Westminster aquarium, London, England, have created such a sensation there. Cyr has issued a challenge to iKithof these famous athletes to comtiete with him in a series of legitimate fetes of strength, and some time m the future there may be a public competition be tween the trio for the championship, which would certainly excite much in terest, and in all probability result in the success of the subject of our sketch. So far, however, neither Sandow or Sampson has manifested any inclination to make a match for money. Blaine's Calamity. As we read symptoms, the death of Walker Blaine about means tho death of secretary Blaine. He is liable to continue to breathe for some lime to come, but in the higher sense the life of the great leader will be buried in the casket with his son. When the ambition of a man like James G. Blaine, the ambition and the life-long hopes or such a mau arc suddcnlv crushed out there is not much left His was the most bnovant of hearts and his dream was to achieve the very highest pinnacle of renown that by public designation can be given to tin American. The failure of 1S7G crushed him sorely; the failuro of lbtl was a nughtv blow, but the saving clause of it was that what he had hoped for himself might come to one who was dearer to him than him self. Now that hojic has gone out and tho wires tell us that as one who is dazed he goes about with a supernatural quiet that is the distress of his fam ily. Well may it distress them, and through it they mav begm to nerve their hearts for a slill heavier blow that is soon to come to them. The iioliticians, in making their calculations aad combinations, mav henceforth leave Mr. Blaine from their reckonings, lie is not a iossible fac tor any more. All the shafts that envy and malice and jetdousy and fear could aim at him he could not shake ofT. Something has smitten him now that will bo sullicient No second blow will be needed. To all iutenis and purjoses he has already passed into history, and whether he continues to walk around for a few days or months, or even years, will not matter. The real life of the indomit able man will be buried in the casket with his son's body to-day.- iSuJl Lake Tribune blllLOlI'S C ATA Kllll IlEMEDY a positive cure for Catarrh.
