There was a notable gathering at
Newark, N. J., e few days ago, which
was of a decidedly martial character,
and had It been In a border state might
well have caused Canadians some
niarm. The Irish-American Military
Union, composed of Irishmen Whr,
fought In the Union army and for
France, were In camp there, under
arms, and with banners that were dis
tinctive and breathed a hope for Ire
land's autonomy. The religious ser
vices themselves had a strong military
flavor, and even the non-mllltant, the
chaplain, was presented with a sword
and the adornment of a soldier.
The free traders are filled with the
notion that they can make up the loss
In revenue they contemplate through
an income tax. They cannot do It,
however, by taxing Incomes only In ex
cess of ten thousand dollars. The small
Incomes are those that yield the bulk
of the revenue, because they are the
more easily ascertained.
The "Hartford Post" says that It was
what It calls "the blue stroke" that
knocked out the Harvard boys at New
Ijondon. And when tho young gradu
ated get engaged In a ncwnWK'r of
fice and hand In their "copy," they'll
meet that same "blue stroke" again,
but from a pencil Instoud of nn our.
There was not one word about tho
"robber tariff" In Mr. Cleveland's extra
r.esslon proclamation, Perhaps Mr.
Cleveland has changed his mind about
the tariff, Just an he changed his mind
about the extra session.
There Is no mistake abuut the genu
ineness of tho good feeling expressed
toward Vice-IVesldent Stevenson In the
Houth. Ho has nn offices to glvo out.
The only one at his disposal was rIvoii
to his son.
It was Admiral Tryon's fault, It now
seems, that tho magnificent ltritlsh
Fteel, flagship and four hundred Itrltlnh
"hearts of oak" were lost; but ho paid
dearly for his error.
The coming congress will bo a de
cided Improvement upon Its democratic
predecessors If It gives tho country
even a llttlo bit of wlno financial legis
lation. Ex-Speaker Crisp Is no fool, whatever
else he may bo. To tlwlwe his posl
tlon on the Bllver question might des
troy his Influence with the administra
tion. Senator Iltll Is kept busy these d.tys
watching Tummnny to gee that it
doesn't make & deal with tho adminis
tration that will leave him high and
dry. '

A RUINOUS LOSS.
Why Is It that people In general are
so prone to disregard loss of strength.

power of nature to recuperate these
ure suggestible reasons. One ot-sthe
most olservable signals or danger
thrown by distressed nature Is waning
strength. An elllelent tonic Is tho best
safeguard against Impending peril.

It Might Have Been Prevented.
From the Boston Post
While the walks in the Public Garden
were crowded yesterday afternoon about
4.3i) o'clock, people 'near the entrance gntes
nt the corner of .Beacon, and Charles streets
wero horrified to see a man suddenly plungo
a knife repeatedly into his throat and fall to
the ground.
While waiting for a conveyance an officer
questioned tho would-be suicide, who was
about CO years of age, as to his name, address,
and reason for wishing to end his life, but
the man steadfastly refused to give any infor
mation regarding himself, lle was taken fo
lie Massachusetts General Hospital and
surgical attendance given him. Although
weak from loss of blood it is probable lie
will recover. About 0 o'clock last nigbt a
hospital attendant got a little information
from him. He said his name was Samuel
D , and that he camo some weeks ago
from Kew Brunswick. The last few days
hit head hat felt queer, and he has been wan
dering about thecity, not knowing which way
fo turn. What impelled him to commit his
rash net he wag unable to say.
The above is tho familiar but terrible
story of the results of mental derangement
caused by overstrain of the nervous system.
People who have dimness, headache or back
ache, or who are troubled with melancholy or
despondent feelings, are already well on the
road which leads to insanity and suicide.
"Dr. Miles Medical Co.: I cannot find

When life became a burden I would use the
