    tTnadilla, N. y., (Special)—One of oar
substantial men here, Fred J. Joyce,
recently made a $2.50 Investment, and
considers the results worth $500 to'hitn.
For over fifteen years Mr. Joyce was
an inveterate smoker, and the tobacco
habit gained such a hold on him that
it affected his nervous system and
made it impossible for him to quit.
Upon realizing the loss of health and
money which threatened him, he made.
many unsuccessful attempts to break
himself of the life-sapping habit, until
on a chance he took No-To-Bac, the
great cure which has saved over 300,
000 tobacco victims. Two boxes com
pletely cured Mr. Joyce, and he has
no desire for tobacco now whatever.
When he attempts to smoke it makes
him as dizzy as when he first acquired
the habit. He now is in the very best
physical condition, and $i>uo would not
tempt him to use tobacco again.
It is better to be a cood cook or waitress
than a poor typewriter.

CLAIMS MADE AGAINST THE
WILSON BILL.
Ha Says the Decrease In the Talne of
Farm Antmala In Two Years Hat Been
•064,000,000—A Plaint From tho Wool
Growers—Senator Vest Denounced In
Strong Words.
A Bitter Arraignment.
Washington, Jan. 24.—Senator War
ren of Wyoming addressed the Seuate
to-day on his resolution calling atten
tion to the shrinkage in the number
and value of farm, animals and re
questing the finance committee to re
; port appropriate legislation. The Sen
ator attributed the shrinkage to the'
i Wilson bill, which, he declared, had
caused a loss of 9604,000,000 to the
| American people in live stock in two
years. The talk that wool growers
: were more prosperous under free wool
I was preposterous. The elections of
1895 indicated that after 1806 a corpo
I ral’s guard only of the faithful would
| be left to mark the spot “where once
stood a triumphant, rampant Dem
ocracy fighting under the unpatriotic
black flag of Wilsonism—the emblem
of protection to foreign industries and
distress to our own. If the McKinley
bill of Republican fame was a ‘Hoo
doo’ ” said Mr. Warren, “your own
Wilson bill has certainly been a con
spicuously stomach trying ‘Jonah. ’ ”
The result of Republican and Dem
ocratic tariff policies Mr. Warren
summed up by saying that United
.Stateslive stock interests had thrived
under Republican rule and had de
creased always,. both in numbers and
value, under Democratic administra
tions. As corresponding with our own
great national shrinkage, he pointed
out an immense increase in the busi
ness of foreign countries in our mar
kets and that, while sheep of the
United States are worth little more
than one-half what they were two
years ago, the wool exportation from
England to America in 1895 was nearly
triple that of 1S94.
Mr. Warran in strong language de
nounced Senator Vest for excoriating
the Supreme court for reversing the
precedent in the income tax cases and
then himself' (Vest) glorying in the
fact that the economical law of a tariff
on wool had been, after eighty years,
overturned by the Wilson bill, that
crowning infamy that the Senate first
pitied then* endured then embraced.
He closed by urging a change in the
un-American policy to stop the golden
drain by the collection of gold for
imports.
TO NULLIFY SPECIE PAYMENTS.
Mr. Mills of Texas introduced a bill
to repeal the refunding act of 1870 and
the specie payment resumption act of
1875. Mr. Mills said he would call up
this bill to-morrow and seek a vote on
it
A resolution by Mr. Perkins of Cali
fornia was agreed to, requesting the
secretary of the interior to furnish in
formation as to the extent of the
illicit traffic in liquor in Alaska and to
suggest remedial legislation.
Mr. Vilas of Wisconsin reported
favorably a bill to prevent the carry
ing in the mails of obscene literature
from one state or territory to an
other.
Mr. Call offered the follpwing: ‘.‘Ke
solved, that a special committee of
seven Senators shall be appoin*"d who
shall be charged with the duty of in
quiring into the imprisonment of
Eugene V. Debs for an alleged con
tempt of court, and who shall report
to the Senate and recommend such
legislation as may be necessary for
the enforcement of the law and pro
tection of citizens from arbitrary and
oppressive excess of judicial power.”
Mr. Call said he would call up the
resolution to-morrow.
It was disclosed at this point that
the Pugh resolution for the payment «
of bonds in silver had lost its parlia
mentary status yesterday and was at
the foot of the. calendar. Mr. Pugh
protested that this was contrary to
his understanding. Mr. Hill said Mr.
Pugh had been warned of this.
"I deny that statement,” said Mr.
Puirh. \
“The senator is simply denying the
record,” answered Mr. Hill, pointing
out how the resolution had lost its
place of precedence before the Senate.
He added: ‘ ‘The senator (Pugh) walked
straight into the opening.”
“1 can easily be trapped,” responded
Mr. Pugh, “by such skillful means as
those adopted by the senator from
New York.’*
Mr. Pugh sought to get his resolu
tion restorsd, but Mr. Hill objected to
each move, causing much amusement.
Mr. Pugh finally gave notice that
he would move to-morrow to restore
the resolution, adding:, “The senator
from New York will not be able to
avoid going on record on that resolu
tion. ”
Mr. iVarren was then recognized
and delivered the speech given above,

House foreign affairs committee did
not deal with any of the several im
portant questions before the commit

response to demands from religious
and other organizations, resolutions
patterned after those before the Sen
ate were adopted and Mr. Quigg was
directed to report them to the House..

Impartial Trial for Prltonore. *
San Fuancisco, Jan. 24. — The Ex
aminer has received the following'
telegram from President Kruger in re
ply to a message asking information
as to the status of the American' min
ing men now imprisoned at Pretoria
for alleged participation in the upris
ing of the Uillnnders: “Everything is
cpiiet at present. The Americans are
in no danger whatever. They enjoy
the full protection of the law like any
other foreigners, therefore there is
no need for protection from the
outside against any alleged revolution
ary moves. Even if snch protection
against revolutionists were necessary,
which is not so, the Americans are
capable to take care of themselves.
The government regrets deeply that,
whilst almost ail of the Americans
took the side of law and order, a very
few pf them have joined the revolu
tionary, so-called reform committee.
These, together with a majority, most
ly British, will be tried accordinir to
law, and justice will be accorded to
all without respect to nationality.”

Americans In London Adopt Resolutions
of Condolence.
London, Jan. 24.—At a meeting of
Americans to-day the following reso
lution was adopted and telegraphed to
Queen Victorfe at Osborne ilouse, Isle
of Wight: “At an assemblage of
Americans it was resolved to commu
nicate to your Most Gracious Majesty
that they join in the deep sympathy of
Your Majesty’s subjects in respect to
His Royal Migness, Prince Henry ,pf
Battenburg’s, death. (Signed)—Charles
Alvin Gillig. ”
The following answer was received:
‘ The Queen desires to sincerely thank
you and your fellow countrymen for
their kind sympathy, which Her
Majesty much appreciates.”
The court circular says of Prince
Henry’s death: “The Queen is most
deeply affected at seeing her beloved
daughter’s happy life crushed, and in
losing a mo3t amiable and affectionate
son-in-law, to whom she was much de
voted. ”
Emperor William , has telegraphed
his condolence to the Queen and to
Princess Heatrice.
The British cruiser, Blonde, with
the embalmed body of Prince Henry
of Battenburg on board, has sailed for.
England from Sierra Leone. The
period of mourning by the court has
been fixed at six Weeks.
• The body of the prince will be in
terred at Windsor and the ceremonial
to be followed will be similar to that
used at the burial of the Duke of Al
bany, Queen Victoria’s voungest' son,
who died in 1884.

A MISAPPLICATION OF THE
MONROE DOCTRINE.
II Fil Not Intended for tho Time* In
Which We Ute nud Mora Now—Dora
Not In Any Renee Apply to the Veneru
eln Controversy—It Wu n Mere
Measure of Self-Defense.
Washington, Jan. 23.—The Senate
galleries were well filled to-day in an
ticipation of the speech of Senator
Wolcott of Colorado on the Monroe
doctrino. A majority of the members
of the Senate committee on foreign
relations were present.
After referring to the message of
President Cleveland on the Venezuelan
question and the appointment of the
commission to determine the true
divisional line separating Venezuela
and British Guiana, Senator Wolcott
said that, under the circumstances, it
would ordinarily seem to be the part
of wisdom to refrain at present from
further comment upon so sensitive
and delicate a matter.
Continuing, he said; “The remarks
I 1 shall make will be chiefly that the
j so-called Monroe doctrine has been
misapplied in tho pending controversy;
that so much of President Monroe’s
j message as referred to the coloniza
; tion of portions of America by Eu
| pean powers could have no upplicabil
' ity to any boundary dispute nowexist
j ing in South America; that the hostil
I ity to the extension by European pow
1 ers of their system to any portion of
this hemisphere, as expressed in that
message, had especial reference to the
systems of government which were
based on tho divine right of kings and
which were directed to the overthrow
of all republics wherever existing;
that the Monroe doctrine was in no
wise intended as insisting upon repub
lican forms of government in this
hemisphere or as committing this gov
ernment to maintain the doctrine out
side its own borders or except as its
own integrity might be affected; that
this country is embarking upon a new
and different policy from the one laid
down by our fathers, and that from
18:11 until now, congress has uniformly
declined to define the so-called Monroe
doctrine or to adopt it as a rule of
action.
" Lhere has been much tension lor
the last, few weeks. The letter of the
secretary of state to Mr. liayard was,
from a diplomatic point of view,almost
incendiary. Tho President’s message
glowed with possibilities of war. Mem
bers of both Houses of Congress, not
to be outdone, followed the President's
suggestion as to the appointment of a
commission with feverish haste. But
what the commission is to do or how it
is to do it. nobody knows, but we have
created it and it stands, as yet more a
menace than a guarantee of peace.
“The efforts of the government to
fire the national heart have not been
unavailing, nor was the work difficult.
There is discontent, too, with existing
conditions in many sections of the
country, and men feel that any
change, even war with a foreign coun
try, could not make masters worse,
and might bring improvement. There
are all over the West and South, men
who work on their farms, and find the
grain they raise little more valuable
for food than as fuel, who know that
the railways that charge them for the
transportation of their products are
largely owned in Great Britain and
either prosperous, or if insolvent, are
fostered and protected and managed
by the federal courts. They also vie w
with distrust the close financial rela
tions existing between the baukers of
the East and those of London, and
they would welcome any event, even
war, that would result, as they believe
war would result, in destroying these
relations and lead us to rely upon our
resources alone and to embrace
economic policies which would not be
dependent on those of foreign coun
tries. Thoughtless and weak and
ignoront these views may be but the
person who denies their existence is
not familiar with the conditions, or
opinions, in many states of the Union.
“There has never been a doctrine
more misunderstood or misapplied
than the Monroe doctrine. It is, and
ever has boen, without recognition by
other countries, and has always been
refused approval by Congress, Presi
dent Monroe Drotested not no-ainwt.
despotic governments, but against its
forcible extension by the Holy Alli
ance in this Western world, of' which
be stood in well grounded .fear. Con
gress had failed to give the Monroe
doctrine official sanction and when a
congressional resolution respecting
Panama was under discussion Congress
expressly refused to committ itself to
the Monroe doctrine in any form.
“The Monroe doctrine was essential
ly a doctrine of self-defense, promul
gated for our own preservation and
for no other purpose. We have made
it infinitely more difficult for Great
Britain to accept arbitration by our
demonstrative diplomacy and volun
teer commission; and we are drifting
into a position where Great Britain’s
refusal to arbitrate, and she may law
fully refuse, will be considered as de
manding from us a dignified and earn
est protest
“in my opinion there will be no
war. It will be averted, not because
our position toward Great Britain in
her dispute with Venezuela is tenable,
not because by our moderation and
wisdom we avert the possibilities of
war, but because Great Britain will
yield the whole controversy rather
than face the horrors of such a war
over such a question. ”

London, Jan. &».—• Prince ITenry of
Batten burg,' husband of the Princess
Beatrice of England, who went to
Ashhntee in a special capacity and
who contracted a fever there, is dead.
The news of liis death was received

the prince died at 0 o'clock yesterday
morning. The end of Prince Henry
was peaceful.
The first lord of the admiralty, the
Hon. George J. Goshen, after consult
ing with the Queen, has given in
structions that the Blonde be ordered
to biing the body of the prince to

INCERSOLL ON PRAYER.
Says II* I* Mot Converted anil Feels as
He Always Did.
New York, Jan. S3.—Colonel Robert
Ingersoll has returned from the West
where he has been delivering a series
of lectures.
“I take it for granted,” he said,
‘‘that the people who prayed for me
are my friends, and that they really
want their God to convert me. Of
course, no prayer was ever answered.
Prayer may be a kind of relief to the
one who prays, but whether the
prayer is addressed to a stone god or a
wooden one, to a stuffed snake or a
totem, or to Jehovah, the result is the
same.
“I don't think that the prayers have
affecied me. 1 believe that! have as
much sense, as much good judgment,
now as before the prayers were made,
and that I am as much opposed to or*
thodox savagery as I was before the
prayers were made.
“I can not be converted unless my
brain is changed or weakened; unless
my credulity is increased and my rea*
somng powers weakened. At the
same time I am much obliged for the
prayers. I feci toward those who
prayed for me as the girl did toward
the young man who squeezed her
hand. She Bald, 'It . pleases him and
does not hurt me.’"
OKLAHOMA OPPOSED*
Che Committee on Territories Flooded
With Adverse. Argument*
Wasuixoton, Jan. 2S. — Chairman
Scranton of the committee on terri*
torles is receiving such large numbers
of communications in every mail ad
verse to the admission of Oklahoma
’as suggests deliberately concerted op
position. ' Many of them from his own
State of Pennsylvania, but the whole
Eastern coast is abundantly repre
sented. The argument employed ic
every case is that if the Territory be
came a State two more silver senators
would almost certainly be sent to
represent it, and increase by so much
the already formidable odds, against
which the sound money men have to
fight at the north end of the capitoL
The same reasoning is used against
New Mexico and Arisona. Flynn is
combatting it as best he can. Okla
homa, he declared, would be at least
a debatable State on the money issue,
one which neither side would claim
with certainty in advance of a test at
the poll* _ . _,

"Blanche was slclt for over three
yeare. She' had the care of the best '
physicians procurable: and no expense
or trouble was spared to give her relief.
She was so thin that she vat fairly skin
and bones, her digestion was out of
order and she had the most awful head*
aches. We gave up' all hope of her re
covery. Her long, thin, listless face
made me nearly half crasy, and we did
every thing In our power to give her
strength and Induce her to take- am In
terest In anything. ;?f
"One day a friend told me about the
Pink Pills, and Mr. Hartness went down
town and got three boxes She bad
taken about one box, when, to my
amazement, one morning I heard her
playing on the piano. I could hardly be
lieve it, for it had been over a year
since the piano had been opened.
"Soon she began to take short rides
on her bicycle, and soon she went sing

hearty little daughter once more.
"She thinks nothing of a spin on her
wheel over to Mt. Clemens or Pontiac,,
and is as well as she ever was. '.3
"I had a girl living at our house who
was a great sufferer from impoverished 0.
blood, and who received instant and ’ \;S
permanent relief from the use of one #

r The QilM Verm Life* ■
Many complain of the confinement of
hrm life, and especially at night they
must be at home. Statistics show that
nine-tenths of the crimes committed in
the world are done between sunset and
runrise. Blessed rather is the farmer’s ■
family, safe from the temptation and £
secure in the pure influence of home.
Let us build our homes, Sending forth a
moral and religious influence, a spot
that will be remembered with pleas* '
ure by our children in the years to
come, a quiet retreat in which to en
tertain our friends, a rest for the weary
traveler and stranger and an honor to .
the community in which we live, and ;
we can say we have made the farm pay.

Oa the Beans Beep, 3
The encouraging and ever popular
bean, whether boiled, baked or por»
porridegd, is thus alluded to by a cor
respondent at Lakeville, Conn:
“A family living in the city were vis- '4*
ited by relatives residing some distance
off. One of the visitors remarked that
there had been a great quantity of por
ridge made in his mother’s family,
'enough,’ said he, ‘to float a 74-gun ft
ship Don't you think so. Uncle John?* ’
appealing to one of his relatives
“ ‘Yes, yes,’ replied that nncle, ‘and •
the ship could float twenty-four boars,
and not hit a bean.’*—Harper’s Maga
zine.
