DYSPEPSIA
Up to a few weeks ago I considered myself
the champion Dyspeptic of America. During
the years that I have lieeuanllcteu I have tried
almost everything claimed to bo a specific for
Dyspepsia in the hope of finding something
that would alTord permanent relief. I had
ahout made up my mind to abandon all medi
cines when I noticed an endorsement of Sirri'
mons Liver Regulator by a prominent
Georgian, a jurist whom I knew, and concluded
to try its effects in my case. I have used but
two bottles, and am satisfied that I have struck
the right thing at last. I felt its beneficial el
fects almost immediately. Unlike all other
Ireparat.nns of a similar kind, no special in
structions are required as to what one shall or
shall not eat. This fact alone ought to com
mend it to all troubled with Dyspepsia.

GREAT STORM AT SEWARD.

mometer registered 104 in the shade,
being the hottest day we have had in
wo years, but towards evening a heavy
rain and wind storm arose, approaching
almost to a tornado, the dust flying so
thick that it was impossible to see across

pletely demolished, and not a timber is
eft standing.
THE FIDELITY FAILURE.
Cincinnati, O., July 12. In the case of
W. L. Trenholm, comptroller of the cur
rency, against the Fidelity National bank
and its directors and officers, to forfeit
the charter of the bank, a decree was de
cided upon bv the parties to-day which
dismisses the action against the directors
and officers, but finds that the bank had
violated the banking laws of the United
States in divers ways. The charter,
therefore, is declared forfeited. This
action puts all the assets of the late bank
into the hands of Receiver Armstrong,
and dissolves all attachments upon its
property made since the bank was seized
by the government.
. EDUCATORS IN CONVENTION.
Chicago, July 12. Except at national
convention of the two great political
parties, no audience has ever assembled
in the Chicago exposition building equal
in numbers and brilliancy to that gather
ed there to-night at the opening
session of the National Educational As
sociation. It was estimated that 18,000
people seyeral thousand more than
could find seats were crowded into the
great hall. The bulk of the marvellous
throng was composed of active educa
tional workers. There were three women
to every man. After the preliminary
Thomas concert of an hour, President
William E. Shelcon called the meeting to
order and Mayor Roche delivered a
hearty address of welcome. Several Chi
cago educators also spoke ia a similar
vein, and the president then introduced
the principal speaker of the evening,
Riehard Edwards. LL. D., Illinois state
superintendent of education. The sub
ject of his address was "The Problem of
To-day." At its close the convention ad
journed till to-morrow.
FRENCH AFFAIRS.
London, July 12. The popular feeling
in Paris against President Grevy, which,
during the ministerial crisis, was exceed
ingly strong, and only caused to subside
and finally to be suppressed so far as any
outward manifestitations were concerned,
has broken out again and rages, more
fiercely than ever. Recollections of the
high handed measures taken by the
president in hia efforts to secure the in
stallation of a ministry which should not
include Gen. Boulauger are resurrected
from the tomb of the past and serve as
fuel to the fire of determination that he
shall not again defy the will of the
people with impunity, and should
the cabinet fail to hold itself together,
as few believe that it will, the president
will find his position extremely unpleas
ant, if not positively dangerous, unless he
exercises the discretion his late experience
must or at least should have taught him.
As the situation now appears it would
surprise nobodv to sec the populace ar
rayed in sullen and resoluto strife agains
the military on the occosion or the an
nual fete next Thursday. In spite of th
positive orders issued by the government
against any demonstration of sympathy
with Gen. Boulanger of whatsoever char
acter, popular manifestations of regard
for that officer multiply daily.
