1, A BOSTON MOB. Unemployed Invade the State House. The Governor Intimated That He Would Do All in His Power to Help ThemThey Then Go to the Legislature and Later Are Dispersed by Police. BOSTON, Feb. 21.
-A bout 2,000 peoplo gathered on the common Tuesday afternoon to listen to addresses by Morrison L. Swift, Ilerbert N. Casson and other "socialist-anarchists," as they claim themselves. After hearing the speeches the crowd marched to the state house, where Swift and Casson were made a delegation to visit Gov. Greenhalge.
They demanded, as they themselves put it, that employment should be given to the crowd which they led. The governor intimated to Swift and Casson that he would do all in his power to help the unemployed, and that he had no doubt that the legislature would do something for the men. Ie consented to come out and address the crowd. Ie said to the people that personally he would do all he could, and that he would recommend action by the legislature. Still, he said, the legislature had no power to give work to the unemployed except it had money to pay them, and except the works on which they should be employed were necessary for the general good.
If the laws were not right it was the fault of the people of Massachusetts, not of the governor or the legislature. Ile said they were simply there to express tho will of the people who sent them. After this Swift and Casson, followed by a crowd of unemployed, went lay their petition, which was couched in the terms of a demand, before the senate and house of representatives. ()n their return from the chamber Swift ascended to one of the little sido galleries and delivered a speech that sounded strangely out of place in tho historic oll hall. will clean out the state house," he cried, "if we don't.
get what we want." The rahble, for such it was, accepted the declaration with enthusiasm. Private Secretary Thomas was standing near, and at the enunciation mentioned repaired hastily to the governor and reported the state of affairs. Gov. Greenhalge grabbed his hat and headed for the scene of action. Meanwhile, however.
Swift had finished and had ascended the stairs, and stood outside the chamber door awaiting Representative Mellen, whom he desired to introduce the petition. The governor met him. "Did you state that you would clean out the state house?" asked the governor. Swift cowered. "I did," he half muttered, "but I stated that we would do it with the ballot." This was absolutely untrue.
"You wish to qualify it in that way," continued his excellency. "Yes," replied the agitator. "Well," said the governor, clinching his hands, "I do not like that language, sir; and it won't be tolerated. I warn you that I will hold you personally responsible." Meantime, Chief Wade, of the district police, had telephoned to police headquarters, and at 3:20 o'clock fifty blue coats marched up Beacon street, and, taking the side entrance to the station-house. made a clean swath through the mob, straightto Doric hall, where they halted, to await the orders of Chief Wade.
These orders were not slow in coming. They were to clear the state house and grounds of the intruders, who, at that time, had become hissing, howling mob. This was but tho work of a moment, for the mere sight of the blue uniforms and brass buttons was apparently enough to quell all anarchistic tendendcies. Before the blue coats the mob melted away, out of the hall, down the broad stairs and on to Beacon street. Representative Mellen, of Worcester, presented the petition of Morrison L.
Swift to the legislature Tuesday afternoon, asking for their attention to the condition of the unemployed. The petition called attention to the fact that the farms and factories are still in existence, and asked that the unemployed be given work therein. The house of representatives thereupon appointed a cominittee to consider the question, and shortly afterward adjourned. Variety Actresses' Agility. PARKERSBURG, W.

G. Dun the mercantile agency, builder of the State Rapid Transit railroad, and a prominent advocate of the annexation of Canada to the United States, was arrested Wednesday charged with forgeries amounting to $229,000. Ile was arraigned before Judge Martin, in the general sessions, and committed to the tombs in default of $25,000 bail. Mr. Wiman expressed some surprise at his arrest, and then he asked if there would be any opportunity to get bail.
He said he ought to have a lawyer, and he would like to be represented by counsel. An effort was made by friends to get bail late in the afternoon, but without success. Neither did Mr. Wiman have counsel when he was taken to the general sessions by the detectives. The arrest was made by Detectives Von Gerichton and Phil Reilly afternoon, at the office of Mr.
Wiman's son-in-law, Norman S. Miller, on a bench warrant issued by Judge Martin soon a after the grand jury had handed down two indictments charging Wiman with forgery in the second degree. as it was known that Mr. Wiman had been arrested, Assistant District Attorney Lindsay made known the complaint on which the indict- ments were founded. It recites that Wiman was not of Mr.
Dun. Under the articles partners association he had no right, title or interest in the property and good will of the business, or profits thereof, for while it Iras agreed that he should receive a certain percentage of the profits, it was especially provided that he should receive only such sum for salary, for faithful service rendered, and that the amount of profit should only be the basis of determining the amount of salary. It was also provided in the articles of association that he should not employ the name of R. G. Dun except in regular and proper business cf the mercantile agency, and that he should not use the name of said association in making, issuing or indorsing any note, bill of exchange, draft or other obligation, except only the indorsem*nt of such papers for the account of the association.
He also had a right to sign firm checks res for firm purposes only. It alleges that by various acts of embezzlement, misrepresentation, breach of agreement, misuse of the powers confided him and gross usurpation of powers with which he was not trusted, he succeeded during the years 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892, and up to February, 1893, in stealing from Mr. Dun the enormous sum of $229,018.90. That sum, it says, he owes Mr. Dun to-day.

-Latest U. S. Gov't Report. Royal Baking ABSOLUTELY PURE 8 THE DISCOVERER OF SWAMP-ROOT. A GREAT TRIUMPH OF MEDICAL SCIENCE.
What a Great and Living Physician Has Accomplished by Devoting A Life to the Study and Relief of Disease. If a great General is born to the world like Grant, or a noted statesman like Bismarck, or a brilliant lawyer like Evarts, or an eloquent clergyman like Beecher, newspapers are full of their praise and everyone knows their remarkable achievements, biographers spring up to flatter and extol them in volume aftor volume; but the one who is greatest and noblest of them all- who is the and in many cases so fatal. He determined, therefore, to devote his talents to the study and discovery of the means not only to relieve, cure and restore these all important organs health when they were diseased, but to strengthen and stimulate them sothat they should properly perform their necessary functions. The result of his exhaustive investigation and experiments resulted in the discovery of a compound now known as Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root.
The phenomenal success of this great remedy has demonstrated the fact beyond a doubt that it is the true specific, not only for Kidney, Liver and Bladder difficulties, but seldom fails cure that much dreaded Bright's Disease, which after all is nothing but advanced Kidney Disease. We say now, if Dr. Kilmer had done nothing else to make his name immortal the discovery of this one great remedy alone has given him a reputation that will continue so 3. ANDRAL KILMER, M.

What grander, nobler, or holier career can there be than that of ministering to the sick and suffering! To say that Dr. Kilmer is the leading physician to-day, among the many skillful men our profession, is true if a man's success and achievements are counted in the scale. over forty years he has devoted his life and talents--of which nature has most richly endowed him--to the study of disease and its successful treatment.
During that time, he has personally examined, prescribed for and successfully treated nearly a half million patients. In treating so vast an army of invalids it has enabled him to thoroughly perfect, test and prove the merits of priceless prescriptions. In the early days of his practice and later on Dr. Kilmer found the same old difficulty confronting him that has baffled every physician from the days of Galen to the present time--there was no known For kidney disease. which is so prevalent, long as the world stands.
Dr. Edward Jennor died in 1823, but his discovery of vaccination still exists throughout the civilized universe; Dr. William Thomas Green Morton has long been dead, and yet he lives today through his wonderful discovery of and long after our distinguished Dr. Kilmer has passed from earth his name will be familiar as the discoverer of SwampRoot, the greatest remedy of this 19th century. It has become an axiom that the man is a public benefactor who succeeds in making tiro blades of grass grow where only one has grown before, then what shall we say of the man who is able to increase the average duration of human life?

ONE of the most striking phenomena of the Adirondack region is the carrying power of the human voice in still weather upon the lakes, great and small.

This adaptation keeps them in existence, for if they had wings which permitted them to fly any distance a strong wind would most likely carry them out to sea, there to perish.
The fact is that the long-winged insects which inhabited the island when it was first. separated from the mainland been carried out to sea and have perished.
