A couple of runaway lovers had a
license to marry in Clark County, Ind.,
but the train on bich they were eloping
only touched the corner of that county,
and without stopping. The ceremony
would not be legai if performed in an
ether county, unlets a new license was
obtained. In this dilemma they appeal
ed to the conductor, who stopped the
train for a few miuutes on Clark County
soil, while a clergyman hurriedly tied the
knot. The passengers were permitted to
kiss the bride, as compensation for the
delay.
An invention has been patented in
Germany which, should its practical ap
plication prove feasible, will very
greatly to the power of musketry fire.
The invention consists of au apparatus,
described as very simple in design and
construction, by which au oidiuary breech
loading rifle can, whenever it may be de
sired, be temporarily eouverted into a re
peating arm. The apparatus holds ten
cartridges, and can becanied by the sol
dier in his pocket. When necessary it
can be fitted on the rifle in . a moment,
when the ten rounds can be fired just as
rapidly as the same number of cartridges
can be discharged from any magazine rifle.
The Emperor William is the fifth male
member of the Hohenzollern family who
has lived to celebrate his golden wed
ding. The first case was that of Johann,
surnamed the Alchemist, born about 1403
and whs died in 1464. The three sons
ot Frederick William I. had also more
than fifty years each of married life
namely, Frederick the Great, Prince lieu
ry, and Prince August Ferdinand of
Prussia. Ot the four sous of Frederick
William III., three celebrated their silvtr
wedding, and Friuee Charles, brother of
the present Emperor, who married the
sister of the Empress, was within a day
or two of the golden ceremony in 187 7
wheu his consort died.
Belgium suffers from a nuisance which,
thougb it may be felt elsewhere also, isj
perhaps nowhere so great as there. Ow
ing to the immense number of convents,
rest at night, especially for the inhabit
tants of the smaller towns where convent
frequently touches convent, has become
almost impossiole. The communal coun
oils of-some towns have intervened and
forbidden this annoyance of nocturnal bell
ringing. The conventual bell ringers
have gone to law with these communal
councils, and the Court of Cassation has
decided finally that the councils were
within their right by protecting the in
habitants against such an intolerable dis
turbance of their hours of rest.

WHAT MAT BE DONE.
It is difficult to predict just what will be
the outcome or disposition of the last ve
toed appropriation bill and the i.olitical
i ipstionsl connected with it, says the
Washington Po-t. A few Soothe re repre
sentatives not more than ten or twelve in
number are anxious to bring about a re
peal of tbe infamous lest oath law, and
eons j leutly voted against a sine die ad
j mmmeut yesterday. Their soli itude is
natural and commendable. La;ge num.
bers of their constituents have been ar
rested an trumped-up charges by Federal
officials, and demand an honest trial by
an impartial jury something t ey cannot
Live, unless the test oath clause is stricken
from the statute-book. Their representa
tives in Congress have no right to desert
them so long as there is a possibility ot
procuring reli-f without sacrificing larger
inter s s. There are also a number ot
Democratic representatives who do not
believe they are justified in refusing to
vote an appropriation sufficiently large to
keep the general courts running. Tnere
are men in jail unable to obain baii who
are entitled to a speedy trial. There are
impi-rtant and varied interests ieJore
Federal tribunals awaiting adjudication
To rtfuse an appropriation is in ellcct to
! Ofiiv losuee to persons wno are eutit'eo
t :t. On the other .uu i a irauduioni
Execunre inforuisTue people s represen
tatives that unless he can Surround the
polls with partisan electioneers, who
ohhii be hired at the public expense to
advance tne interest of the Republican
party, the courts shall be speuJed, the
interests of litigants be sacrificed, and un
fortunate prisoners rot in jail.
If it were not for Democratic absent
teeism the Senate test oath rep'al and
honest jury bill could be paused by the
House and become a law. As it is, the
Democrats who remain faithful to Ineir
trusts have been placed ai uqo mercy ot
the Ropuolican minority by their crimi
naliy careless or iudiiferent associates, and
no law that Mr. Hayes' friends are deter
mitied to deteat can be enacted.
In such a state of affairs, the Democrat
iu both houses should do the best they
can They should repeal tho test oatb,
provide for fair juries, appropriate enough
money to run the absolutely necessary
courts until January, and then adjourn
If Mr Hayes reluses to take the mar
shals' appropriation with the restriction
that those officers shall not be employed
to corrupt or intimidate elections, let them
go. Pay the judges; provide for tho im.
peratively necessary expenses of the courts
and let the marshals resign or work for
nothing. Under no circumstanoes should
the Democrats commit themselves to the
principle that a dollar will be paid for
Federal electioneer ers .
In December, when Congress meets,
the subject can be taken up as it is now
left. A majority cannot repeal the in
famous Davenport law, but it can draw
its fangs. If we cannot obtain two-thirds
of both houses to pass an honest measure
over a Fraud's veto we can provide for a
Democratic supervisor wherever there is a
Republican supervisor and make it
mandatory on the courts to appoint an
equal number from both parties. The
Democracy have already won a great vic
tory and obtained a great advautage
They have freed the ballot box from the
domination of the bayonet and they have
forced the Radical party its Hayes',
Gar fields, Blainea and Conk lings, to
stand up in opposition to free and un
trammeled elections. The appeal is to
the people. Hayes, the advocate of force,
can be held in check until Hayes, the
Fraud, is buried under the indignant
protest of liberty-loving patr ots, who be
lieve in free ballots and an honest count.
THE PRINCE NAPOLEON.
The circumstances attending the li fe
and death of the Prince Napoleon, the
heir to the Imperial throne of France, are
of unusual interest. In hisearlyjyouth he is
described as being a boy of feeble healthy
retired aud timid in his mannerss, and not
considered to have possessed any remark
able intellectual powers. As he grew in
years and statue bis health became more
robust the shyness of youth wore off
and his mental powers enlarged. His
disposition became cheerful and sprightly,
with a large snare of moral courage and
a predominating fondness for adventure
which was probably one of the causes,
though not the sole cause, of his determina
tion to take tb.3 field in Southern Africa
under the flag of Great Britain. The
principal cause which led him to embark
for Zululand, and engage in the
war operations of England against
tbe savages of that country,
is better given in a letter which he
wrote to M. Jiouher, and which is as fol
lows: "My Dkar M. Rouhks: I am about
to quit Europe and my absence may last
some months. I have too many faithful
tnends in f ranee to think it possible forantrVt WM directed to a neatdookin
me to keep silence ou tbe reasons of my
departure. For eight years I have been
tbe guest of Englaud. I have completed
my education in one of ber military
schools and on several occasions I have
strengthened tbe bonds wb'ch connect me
with t e English Army by sharing in
tbe great maneuvers it has executed. The
war which England has for more than a
year been carrying on at the Cape of G od
Hope baa just assumed a character of
gravity which it had not till now possess
ed. I desire to follow the operations,
aud I embark in two days. In
F;auce, where, thank God, party spirit
has not destroyed tbe military spirit, it
will be felt that I did not wish to remain
a stranger to tbe fatigues and dangers of
those among whom I count so many com
r des. The time I shall devote to witness
i..g this coi fiictof civilization against bar
baiism id not b,- lot fur me. Afar, as
near, my thoughts will be constantly di
rected towards France I shall watch with
interest aud wirhou' inquietude the grad
ual phases the will pas ihrough, for i am
certain that during my absence the parti'
sans ot tne imperial cause will remain
united and confident and will continue to
give the country the spectacle of a party
whim, faithful to its doctrines, remains
ever animated by sentiments of the most
ard nt patriotism. Accept, my dea M.
Rnuher, the assurance of my sincere
f iendship.
Napoleon.
"Camden place, Chiselburst, Feb. 25,
1879. "
It is well known that the Prince bad no
predilections for political Hie, and had no
ambition to mount tbe throne of France,
to which he was oorn an heir. That he
shouid become the Emperor of France
was, however, the cherished hope of his
m otter, the t-x-Kmpress Eugenie, boee
wishes were to him a law. Thus his life
oecame a sort of drama in which bis own
desires ami aspirations were reluctantly
yielded to 'he amor ion of his mother.
Such a life was weariness itself to this
young man, and it is not to be wondered
at that he seized the opportunity offered
by the war iu Africa as an episode by
which the ou )yaricy of his spirit would
be reibved, for a while at least, from the
irksomeness of a depressing situation.
Hid untimely death has cast a gloom up
ou the hpes of the imperialists of Franc
fiom which they will not soon recov
er. It has also c completely prostrated
hid mutner, not only by the luss of her
only child, but by the crushing out ot
every proud maternal ambition, that her
eventful life is despaired of Every sym
pathy aud condolence that tbe Sovereign
ot Great Britain and the entire British
nation can off r has been bestowed upon
tbe now childless Eugenie, but it is doubt
ful if she ever recovers from the crushing
a'Hiction.
It is somewhat singular that of the four
Napoleons not one has tlied iu France.
Napoleon Hhe First died in exile at St.
Helena. His son, whose birth was an
nounced 8 "The King of Rome," died iu
Austria; Napoleon the Third died an ex
ile in Eugland, and now the Fourth dies
in arms in Africa, at tbe hands of a sav
age foe, whde serviug under the flag
which had been the direct cause of the
dowmall and death of the first Esnperor.
AN IMPORTANT PAPER
Yesterdays' Charlotte Observer says:
A gentleman of this city has received
from the president of the historical so
ciety of Worcester, Mass., a letter con
veying intelligence of the existence of a
paper among the society's records which
will forever set at rest all doubts relative
to the authenticity of the Mecklenburg
Declaration of Independence on the 20th
of May, 1775. Certified copies of the
paper have been sent for, and we are in.
formed that the gentleman referred to will
soon bring to light all tbe facts connected
with this important historical event. In
view of this fact the matter will not be
further anticipated bere. It is sufficient
to say that it is in the hands ot an able
and conscientious investigator of the truth
of history.

Glcanser,the fire t bottle of wMcn (pare uie new

became strong and sound, being able to stand
the most severe cold and exposure, aud 1 have
(rained orer thirty pounds in weight. Feel
ing confident that 1 had made a wonderinl
discovery in medicine, I prepared a quantity
ot the Root bit;ers, and was in the habit ot
t ivina Uem away to sick friends and neigh
bors. I found the medicine effected the most
wonderful cures of a'l diseases caused from
humors or ncrof la in the blood, imprudence,
Bd Stomach, Weakness, Kidney Disease,
Torpid Liver, Ac , Ac. The news of my
discovery in this way spread from one person
to another until I found myself oalled upon
to supply patients with mediciue tar and
wide, and I was induced to establish a labor
atory for compounding and bottling the Boot
Bitters in large quantities, and I now d vote
al m time to this business.
I was a' first backward in presenting either
myself or discovery in this way to the publc.
not being a patent med ciue man and with
small capital, bat 1 am getting bravely over
that. Since I first advertised this tnedicin
I have been crowded witn orders from drug
gists and country dealers, and the hundreds
of letters I have received from persons cured,
prove the fact that no remedy ever dtd so
iuncb good in so short a time and hud so much
iuoceeg as the Hoot Hitters. In fact, I am
convinced that they will soon take the Jead
o' all other medicines in use. ea ly one
huiid ed retail druggists, right here at home
in Cleveland, now sell Hoot Bitters, some of
whom have already sold over one thousand
bottles.
Root Sitters are strictly a medical prepar
ation, such as was used in the good old nays
of our forefathers, when people w re cured
by some simple root or plant, and when
calomel and other poisons of the mineral
kingdom were unknown.
They act strongly on the liver and kidneys,
keep the bowels regular and build up the
nervous system, they penetrate every part
of the body, searching out every nerve,
bone and tissue from the head to tr e feet,
cleansing and strengthening tbe fountain
springs of life, hence they must ieach all
diseases by purification and nourishment.
So matter what your feelings or symptoms
are, what the disease or ailment is, use Reet
Bitters. Don't wait until you are sick, but
if you only feel bad or miserable, use tbe
Bitters at once. It may save your life.
Thousands of persons in all pans of the
country are already using Root Bitters.
They have saved many lives of c tnsumtives
who bad been given up by friendsand physi
cians to die, and have permanently cured
many old chronic Cdses of Catarrh, scrofula,
Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, and Hkin Diseases,
where all other treatments had fa'led. Are
you troubled with sick headache, costiveness,
aizziness, weakness, bad taste in the mouth,
nervou8ness,and broken down in constitution?
You will be cured if you take Root Bitters.
Have you humors and pimples on your face
or skin? Nothing will give you such good
health, strength, and beauty as Root Bit
ters. gft, I know that jealous physicians will
cry humbug because my discovery cures se
many of their patients, b t I care not. It is
now my desire and determination to place
my Root Bitters as fast as pos ible within the
reach ef all those suffering throughout the
world Hold by wholesale and retail drug
gists and country merchants, or sent by ex
press on receipt of price, $1.00 per bottle, or
six bottles $5.00. For certificates of won
derful cu'es, see my large circular around
