THE NIAGARA MURDER -
PLOT
The theory of the detectives on
gaged in the Niagara Falls mur-
der case involves the astounding
assumption thata gang of murder-
ers has been organized to decoy
Englishmen with money out to
Canada to be killed and plundered:
and there really appears to be
evidence to give color to the theoy.
Were such an idea utilised As the
plot for a sensational novel it
would be scouted as too ridiculous-
ly- improbable. Yet the only re-
markable thing about it is that
men can be found to engage in a
wholesale murder plot involving
so much deliberation and weeks
of social intercourse with the vie-
tims previous to the murder. The
methods appear to be simple
eno,lgh for men capable of plann•
ing such a crim. If the assumption
of the police be correct the number
of victims is not likely to be dis-
covered unless some person more
or Tess implicated in the plot can
be forced to divulge the secrets of
the conspiracy. The choice of
Niagara Falls as the place of oper-
ations seems to point to tbo man-
ner at once of th-e murders and of
the disposal of the bodies of the
fact that Benwell
. Thel
was shot on the wayside and his
body left where it fell was pro-
bably due to a failure of tbeorigi-
nal plan through some accidental
circumstance. To lure a man
across the Atlantic to Niagara of
all places on earth. and then kill
hien bya method equally practic-
able anywhrre else, does not seem
a rational plan, Niagara keeps its
secrets well, "the thunder of wat-
ers', drowns alike the death cry
of the victim of accident, suicide,
or murder, The discovery of the
body of an unknown person in the
river provokes little interest and
arouses no suspicion and the wat-
ers themselves seem to take ex-
traordinary pains to destroy every
moans of identification. When a
thief deliberately decoys his vic-
tim from England to Niagara to
rob him, it is difficult to avoid
the suspicion that ho contemplates
murder at least as a possible con
tingency.
THE BROWN FAMILY.
HOW TO COLOR BROWN, DARK BROWN AND
SEAL BROWN, SHADES THAT WILL NOT
CROCK, FADE, OR WASH OUT.
The different rich and handsome
browns are still the most fashionable
and becoming. Unfortunately it has
hitherto been difficult to find a brown
dye that will give colors that will
neither fade nor crock.
A recently discovery, however, now
makes it possible for any lady to dye at
home a brown, seal brown, or dark
drown that will be satisfactory in every
way. This discovery is the foundation
of the three now browns that have
been added recently to Diamond Dyes,
Fast Brown, Fast Seal Brown, and
Fast Dark Brown. Goods dyed with
these colors are fast to light and wash-
ing, and any of them are improved if
washed in soadsudk.
One package of either of these dyes
will color from one to four pounds of
sick or wool goods, according to the
shade desired. As no other dye manu-
facturer is able to obtain these dyestuffs
the process of manufacture being pat-
ented,be Buret() use only Diamond Dyes
They are the only package that have
been proven reliable by years of use.
It is really astonishing to discover
what a ten cent package of Diamond
Dyes will do. They are adapted to
almost a thousand uses, from dyeing
gloves, feather, and hats. to cloaks,
shawls, and dresses, while their other
uses such as making the best shoe
dressing, inks at ten cents a pint, wood
stains that successfully imitate costly
cherry and mahogany, and art colors
for tinting photographs, engravings, &c.,
canoe them to be invaluable in nearly
every household.
The next time you want a new dress.
and you feel as thougn you could use
the money to good advantage for some-
thing else, take one of your old dresses
and with a package orltwo of Diamond
Dyes, color it some fashionable shade.
It will look se good as new, and every
body will think it is just from the dress
maker's.

refused to be robbed. He finally
came 'down to $20, then to $15
and we offered him $10. Ile said
he would take an hour to think
it over,and at the and of that time
I wont to got his answer. 'What
do you estimate the tickets worth

'And I can sell nine?' 'If you

SEED BARLEY, THE DARK CONTINENT.
[We haver•eceived the following WHAT EVANGELISTS AND EXPLORERS

lish it tor the benefit of our read- COUNTRY AND WHAT IT WILL
ors.—ED. NEW ERA.]
The Government of Canada, on
the recommendation of the Min-
ister of Agriculture, has agreed
to place in the estimates a bum to
provide for the purchase and dis-
tribution of two -rowed barley for
seed, to he supplied to the farmers
of the Dominion at cost.
In furtherance of this object
the Minister of, Agriculture has
purchased 10,000 bushels of "Car-
ter's Prize Prolific" barley from
the well-known seed establish-
ment of James Carter & Co., of
London, England. This variety
of two -rowed barley—a recently
improved strain of the Chevalier
typo—ranks high in Great Britain
for malting purposes, and has
been pronounced by experts as
ono of the best sorts obtain-
able. It has been awarded many
prizes, and was given the flrst
prize at the Windsor Royal Agri-
cultural Show last year. It is
very prolific, has stout, bright
straw, and lung, heavy heads,
usually averaging, under gooa
cultivation, about forty grains
per head. It
m:~ b thin-
ner
sown th' -
nor than loss vigorous growing
sorts, one and a half bushels per
acre is considered sufficient. This
variety was grown from samples
distributed from the Central Ex-
perimental Farm, in the barley
districts of Ontario, and in other
parts of the Dominion, during the
past somewhat unfavorable season,
weighing from 54 to 56 lbs. per
bushel; samples of which have
been submitted to experts in Eng-
land, who have pronounced them
to be good, marketable specimens
of malting barley, which would
command 'at present from 38s. to
40s per quarter of 448 lbs., in tho
English market, equal to 99cts. to
$1.04 respectively for tho Cana-
dian bushel of 48 lbs.
This "Prize Prolific" barley—
for which Carter's catalogue price
is 10s. 6d. stg. per bushel of 56
lbs.—will be offered to the farm-
ers of Canada in bags of two Eng-
lish bushels (112 lbs.), one bag to
each individual, at four dollars
per bag. At this price the barley
will be delivered to the nearest
railway station, so that farmers
in every province may obtain it
at a uniform rate.
Those who desiro to participate
in this distribution should send
their applications at once, with
four•- dollars enclosed; to the un-
dersigned, giving the name and
post office address plainly,and the
name of the nearest railway sta-
tion. Tho names of those who
remit will be entered in tbo order
in which they are received, and
the distribution made in the same
order as far as possible, having
regard to the requirements of the
.several provinces. Should the
applications exceed tho supply,
those who apply last will have
their money refunded, but if the
quantity imported should bo great-
er than the demand, on the basis
of a two bushel distribution, then
the applications of those who may
have asked for larger quantities
will be considered, and the re-
maining stock apportioned among
such applicants. WM. SAUNDERS,

INVESTED A. DOLLAR AND
REALIZED A MILLION.
Brown and his friend Perkins
were talking about investments.
"Once I invested $1000 in real
estate, said Perkins, "and douhled
it in less than six months. That
was the best investment I ever
made. Pretty good, wasn't it ?"
"I've done bettor than that, said
Brown. "Two years ago I was
told by my friends that I was go-
ing into consumption, and I
thought they were right about it.
I had a dry, hacking cough, no ap-
petite. my sleep came by fits and
starts, and seemed to do mo no
good, and often there was a dull,
heavy pain in my chest. I kept
growing weaker and weaker, and
at last night -sweats set in. I
thought it was all up with mo then
I had consulted two doctors and
takenI rtR
la of
their medicine,
and received no benefit from it.
One day I happened to read some-
thing about Dr. Pieice's Golden
Medical Discovery, and I made up
my mind to vivo it a trial, but I
did not expect it would help
mo at all. I invested one dol-
lar in a bottle of it, and it helped
mo from the first dose. It helped
and it cured me, and when I com-
pare my present good health with
t'to miserable health of two years
ago I think 1 am safe in saying
that my investmentwas n much
butter ono than yours. 'You can't
reckon health by any measure of
dollars and cents; if you could I
should say that I had realized at
least a million from my $1 invest-
ment." The "Golden Medical ;:.is-

"Africa, its Resources and its
People,,' was the title of a lecture
delivered in London lately by Rev.
J. J. Graney, D. D., of Buffalo, N.
Y. He dwelt chiefly with the
Western coast of the country, and
spoke of the belt of fever land
which gave Europeans so much
dread in visiting that country.
One reason for the existing state
of affairs was accounted for by
the Mandrake tree which grew i❑
many fantastic and grotesque
forms along the banks of the riv-
ers and by its peculiar growth
caught all the derbis that came
down the streams. Tho accumu-
lation, when the water would sub-
side a little, was baked in the sun
until it became feted and a mass
of corruption and disease -spread-
ing evils. In tbo immediate
neighborhood of these Mandrake
trees there is little or no sign of
life, no birds, insects or anything
that walks; the only sign of ani-
mation is the occasional splutter-
ing of the lazy crocidilo. With
100
miles 1 9 Of this region s e on the fevers
e era
of wit ch so much was heard of
from travellers abound. They
were not so dangerons, however,
as sorne would make us believe
and under ordinary circumstances
were not fatal. It is impossible
to breed oxen, cattle or horses in
this country; potatoes cannot be
cultivated because they all run to
vine; butter is to be had, blit its
price will fluctuate between forty
and seventy cents per pound.
The natives of the country appear
to eat anything; little children
may be seen running around eat-
iug red peppers with as much rel-
ish as tho American child would
eat a banana or peach. All the
dishes prepared by native cooks
will burn the stomach of any per-
son not acquainted with the cus-
toms of the country. Fish is used
for food, but it is cooked just as it
is taken out of the water, and to
the unintiated it is vary offensive.
Tho country is in sorne places in-
fested with deadly insects and rep-
tiles w•Ilit-h place life in a very un-
certain stutr. There are the driv-
ers— large black ants which move
around in myriads, an'.1 by their
united forces: have been known to
kill elephants; there aro also the
"jigger," a small worm which gets
inside the skin of a visitor, whore
it will live, fend and fatten on the
viotim and then fester, after which
it is necessary to cut away the
flesh so affected. The praductions
of the land find their way into all
the cities and towns of tho civiliz
ed world. Tho chiofost of these is
the Liberian coffee, the only equal
to tvhicli is that from Mocha, Per-
sia. The coffee tree in Africa is
about the.sizo of a peach tree, and
has when in blossom a_vory doll-
cato and beautiful wax flower, and
emits a sweet and delicate odor.
Tho people affect the styles and
manner:of speech of Europeans,
although some of their languages
aro very rich, yet English is spok-
en as a general thing all along the
coast. All the different sects are
united on tho belief of' an almigh-
ty power and ono supremo being,
but they have created 10,000 oth-
er spirits which they in a manner
worship, and dread and guard
against their influence by the use
of charms. The slave trado—al-
though many people think it a
thing of the past—is still in- a
flourishing state in the interior,
and some districts have become -
almost depopulated by the con-
stant demand upon its residents
for the slave markets. The his-
tory of the country is very anti-
quated, as it had place before the
time of Abraham and the early
wise mon.

There is no possible justification for
a pension system in connection with the
Dominion civil service. The servants
of the country are as well paid for the
labour they perform as are those engag-
ed in other occupations,and they should
make provision for old age out of their
yearly income the name as the rest of
the community. The present system
is bad in itself and ie made still worse
by the manner in which it has been
abused. An unpopular judge has been
given a fat living for life ttfter a term of
only eighteen months in the public
service. About thirty thousand dollars
are paid in pensions to ox -civil servants
who aro spending the incomes provided
by Canadian taxpayers in the luxury
of foreign homes. Men have been pen-
sioned off from ono:branch of the public
service and then taken into active ser-
vice in another branch. Tho leading
counsel of the C. P. R. draws a ponsion
from the Goverment ; s0 does one of the
two engineers in charge of the Man-
chester ship canal. This Civil Service
Pension System is bad in itself, and
worse becanse of the abases in connec-
tion with it, and should be abolished. -

WILD ANIMALS IN POSSES-
SION OF A SHIP.
lldThe overdue tsritish barque
Margaret (Captain Sargent) from
the West Coast of Africa, has ar-
rived at Boston after a reinark-
able voyage. Captain Sargent
said that between tho gales and
tbo nature of his cargo, he had an
experience he dogs not wish again
to meet. Besides a regular cargo
there wore twelve snakes. 400
cockatoos and parrots, four our-
ang-outang' sumo monkeys, four
crocodiles, and a gorilla, which he
was bringing from Africa, for a
museum. Rats caused the death
of all but four of the cockatoos
and parrots by eating up all the
corn, that had been provided for
thorn. During a gale the snakes
and crocodiles broke out of their
boxes in the hold and invaded the
forecastle, so that for five days
the men could not venture into
their quarters, but had to live in
tho cabins. These reptiles along
with tho rats kept up a continual
warfare until the surviving croco-
dile killed the last snake, and
completed tho chain of vengeance
by being killed during a fierce
storm by some of the cargo failing
on it. During the scrimmage
among the reptiles the monkeys
took to the rigging and stuck
there despite all efforts to dislodge
them. Finally they were all
washed away except four which
were captured. The worst pas-
senger was a five foot gorilla,
which was imprisoned in a stout
wooden box. The top of this the
animal forced off, but though held
by a chain ho bad considerable
play, and getting possession of an
iron bar he swept the decks. Ho
wound up by partially scalping
the negro cook ono day, and only
letting go after he had been near-
ly killed with an axe. All the
men worn more or loss hurt by
the beast, and ho led them a life of
terror.
Bad blood causei dyspepsia and
dyspepsia reacts by causing bad
blood. So both go on, growing
worse, until the whole system is

relief for the victim is a thorough

Sarsapari lla.

one roof to another he alighted on a sky-

He fell twenty feet and dropped into
the working parts of the 300 horse pow-

THE WAY TO MATRIMONY.
"Every girl makes up her min
at some time in her life that sh
will never accept; any man- who
does not propose gracefully, so
said a man who was sipping claret
with several others the other day.
"He has got to be fully togged
out in a dress suit, and has got to
kneel according to the Delsarte
system. That is their idea a
first,',but 1'11 bet there isn't on
girl in a. hundred who ever get
her proposal that way—at leas
from the one she accepts and 1'l
leave it to the present company
to decide if each one will give th
circumstances of his proposal."
"We're in," said a gray-haired
Benedict, "Begin with your own."
"All right. I took my wife
that was to be, and is now, sleigh
riding. We were talking about
sentimental things and neglected
to notice that we ran onto a
le tretch of road which the wind
had cleared of snow. We never
noticed it until the horse stopped,
utterly exhausted. There was noth-
ing to do but to get out and lead
the horse back, because he could-
n't drag us. I proposed on the
way back, while I was trudging
along a country road with my
letf hand on a horse's bridle and
the othor—well, never mind that
she accepted me, but she always
said it was a mistake. I re-
fused to let her off, though, or
to propose again in a dress suit."
"My proposal," said the gray-
haired old man, "was made also
during a sleigh •ride. My wife
and myself were in the back seat
in a four -seated sleigh,and in going
over a bump of some kind the seat,
with us in it, was thrown oft',
We landed ,in a nice, comfortable
snow drift, and the sleigh went on
for a mile before we were missed.
when it came back for us,however
we were engaged. We weren't
ie a dignified position, but wo
were fairly comfortable and we
had the spat still with us.
Sil,ec then my wife has frequently
stated that she had intended
never to accept a man unless ho
proposed in true novel form, but
she did."
"I'll give you a summer story,"
said a young man but recently
married. "I did my courting in
a.place full of romance, but the
proposal never camp at a roman-
tic time ; in fact, I don't think a
man is responsible for the time he
proposes. It just comes, and that
is ail these is of it. I had had the
most favorable occasions in ro-
mantic nooks. Finally I had a
two-mile row in tho hot sun.
I apolizod and took off my coat ;
then I apologised again and took
off my vest. It wasn't romantic,
but it came on me and I said it.
The boat drifted half a mile and
I wouldn't have oared if it had
drifted ten miles, Wo worn en-
gaged. And I looked like a tramp

"And I'll tell you that senti-
mentality doesn't go." said a law-
yer. "I know, because I've tried
it. I proposed to my wife first
at a summer resort, when the
moon was full and I was sober.
There was- everything to inspire
sentiment. But she refused me
I let it go. A little later I met
her again in the parlor of the

A HOUSE WHO CAN TALK ! ”
e Everybody bas heard of a "horse laugh,'
but who has ever seen an equine gifted with
the power of speeob ? Such an animal would
be pronounced a miracle; but so would the
telegraph and the telephone a hundred years
ago. Why, even very recently a cure for con-
sumption, which is universallraeknowledged
to be scrofula affecting the lungs, would have
been looked upon as miraculous, but now peo-
ple are beginning to realize that the disease
Is not incurable. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery will cure it, if taken in time and
given a fair trial. This world-renowned rem-
edy will not make new lungs, but t will re-
store diseased ones to a healthy sate when
other means have failed. Thousands grate -
full testify to this. It lei the most potent
tonic or strength restorer, alterative or
blood -cleanser and nutritive or tiesh-builder,
known to medical science. For Weak Lungs,
Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis, Asthma, Ca-
tarrh in the Head, and all Lingering Coughs,
it Is an unequaled remedy. In derangements
of the stomach, liver and bowels, as Indiges-
tion, or Dyspepsia, Biliousness, or Liver
Complaint,' Chronic Diarrhea, and kindred
aliments, it is a sovereign remedy.
COUGH,

HEN a few doses of Ayer's Cherry
V I'octoral will relieve you? Try it.
Keep it in the house. You are liable to
have a cough at any
timo, and no other
remedy is so effective
as this world-
renowned prepara-
tion. No household,
with young children,
should be without it.
Scores of lives are
saved every year by
its timely use. s

Amanda B. Jenner, Northampton,

pels mo to acknowledge thereat bene-
fits T havo derived for my children from
the use of Ayer's most excellent Cherry
Pectoral. I had lost two dear children
from croup and consumption, and had
the greatest fear of losing my only re-
maining daughter and son, as they were
delicate. Happily, I find that by giving
them Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, on the first
symptoms of throat or lungtrouble, they
are r•lieved from danger. and are bo-
