P AINT cracks.—It ofteri costs more to prepare a house for repainting' that has been painted in the first place with cheap ready-mixed paints, than it would to have painted it twice with strict- ly pure white lead, ground in pure , Unseed oil. Strictly Pure White Lead forms a permanent base for repaint- ing and never hgs to \be burned or scraped off on account of scaling or cracking. It is always smooth and clean. To be sure of getting strictly pure white lead, purchase any of the following brands: \Atlantic \Jewett \Brooklyn.\ FOR COLORS.—National Lead Co.'s Pure White Lead Tinting Colors, a one-pound can to a 25-pound keg of Lead and mix your own paints.

The Hay trade Journal gives this advice to those who are holding their hay for higher prices: We are led to believe from more recent and widespread advices that the crop of 1894 will be t large one, and while possibly not so large as 1898, still with the increas- ing acreage and new territory it may pos- sibly reach that figure, and thsrtr still with the large surplus of old hay OH hand that will fully supply toe requirements of the trade for some lime to come, it would seem wise on the part of the farmer or producer to sell at present prices. There certainly is nothing in the future outlook, to indicate that prices will advance, or evoa that pres- ent values will be maintained. The finan- cial stress of the country is almost beyond precedent. Labor troubles have been and are a disturbing element that is paralyzing the energies of the country. This, together with the slowness of Congress in final settlement of tariff questions, and with the general stagnation of business caused by financial troubles in other directions, have caused the consumers in all of our large cities to purchase in a hand-to-mouth way. Under all these conditions it has been a wonder that prices for .the past year have been so well maintained, and considering the fact that another heavy crop will short- ly be added to the surplus already on hand, it would seem that the producer would be acting very unwisely if he held on to his old Btock with the expectation of securing higher prices, or that because in his imme- diate vicinity the crop is short, and that the same conditions would prevail through- out every other portion of the country. A foreign exchange says: \It requires only fine weather henceforth, to enable British farmers to gather a hay har- vest, variously estimated at from 25 to 80 per pent, greater than for the past ten years.\ Killed at Oastorland. An accident with a sad fatal result hap- pened in Oastorland Friday afternoon. Charles Somers, a young man employed in the box factory, WBB engaged in his usual avocation of running a small circular saw. In some manner the pieces fell on the saw, which runs at a high rate of speed, the pieces were shot from the saw with the ve- locity equal to that of a bullet, leaving a rifle, One or more pieces struck him in the abdomen, seriously injuring him. He was taken home, the best of medidal aid procurable summoned, and every care and attention bestowed, but without effect. He lingered until Saturday afternoon, about half-past three, when he died, being conscious up to the last. Young Somers came from Potsdam when the company erected the shops at Oastorland. He was a bright, popular young fellow, woll liked fay all of his brother employes. He was about 18 yearB of age and unmarried. Terribly Hurt I n a EunawAJ. Clinton Rumble, of South Harrisburg, Lewis County, father of Charles A, Rum- ble, of Lowville, met with a serious acci- dent last week while drawing- i n hay with a pair of colts. In passing ovar a small sluice which was slightly raised, the stand- ard to the hay rack broke and he fell under the horses' heels. The team ran away, and as to whether they kicked Mr. Rumble or the wagon passed over him is not known. His right ear was torn off olose to the head, so that it barely hung by the bulb, his skull •was fractured, and a eash about seven incheBlong cut across the back of the head. The fifth rib on the right side was broken, and the skin taken clean from the face, chest and left shoulder. ' Pensions Reduced.

Tho Disturbances at the Past Two Weeks were Nothing Compared t o the Labor Troubles Seventeen Years Ago. There are many, no doubt, who consider the recent strike the worst that this coun- try has ever seen. They speak of it in con\ nection with the civil war and far overrate its significance. But they forget the strike of 1877, which if not more extended, was, more lawless and bloody. The strike in that year began July 14, on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. On the third day the militia of West Virginia was called out, and on the fourth the United ', .States regulars went to their assistance. On July 20 the the militia was called out in Maryland, and at Baltimore there was a riot in which nine were killed and twenty or thirty wounded. On the same day the trouble reached Pittsburg, where the vio- lence was soon s o great that the strike has since gone by the name the Pittsburg riots. The Pennsylvania militia \arrived in Pitts- burg on the 21st. As they marched through the streets the soldiers were stoned, and their answering volley killed Bixteen and wounded many more. Then the mob broke into the gunshopB, and 5,000 rioters were fully armed to do battle • with the raw and untrained militia. The troops retreated to a railroad round house, and there the mob, now grown 20,000 strong, attacked them. Three or four cannon which the mob had seized were brought to bear upon the round house. The soldiers were not dislodged, and while they fired on the mob the rio I ers ran blazing oil cars up against the round house in the endeavor to set it on fire. These tactics were tried in various ways and railroad property was de- stroyed wherever it could be found. Finally the militia were forced to retreat from their furnace-like fortress, and, escap- ingacross the Allegheny river, they dis- banded. The mob was now supreme in PittBburg. Depots were burned; 2,000 freight cars and 125 locomotives were de- stroyed in the mad desire of the mob for plunder and revenge, Allegheny County was obliged to pay over $4,000,000 to rail- way companies, of which $1,600,000 went to the Pennsylvania railroad. The entire militia of Pennsylvania and 400 regulars under Gen. Hancock were at last on the scene, but too late to be of much service. The strike extended over the whole country, from New York to San Francisco, In collisions between the mobs and militia in Buffalo and Heading, 18 rioters were killed and 48 wounded. In Chicago, on J'uly 26, there was an encounter where as many were killed as have been killed dur- ing the entire present strike throughout the country. In St. Louis, a mob surrounded the police and militia and dared them to fire. In San Francisco, a great mob took possession of the city and f«ught a bloody battle with the reorganized vigilante under ex-Gov. Ooliman. At Oolumbua, O., a mob forcibly closed all mills and industries. In many places throughout the whole coun- try industry came to a standstill. There was no violence in New Vork, but a meet- ing was held to express sympathy -with the strikers, At St. Louis, Chicago, Indian- apolis and many other cities, there was a complete embargo on all railroads. During the strike the militia of nearly a dozen States were obliged to take the field in co-operation with the United States army. Between 50 and 75 rioters were killed and fully 200 wounded in the con- flicts with the soldiers, while the amount of property destroyed has never calculated. The minors' strike followed the railroad Btrike. There were 40,000 men out, but, except for a few killed at Scranton, ther was not much lawlessness or bloodshed, It is possible that the recent strike might have rivalled the labor rebellion in 1877 except for the prompt aotion of the govern\ menfc. Asa fact, it certainly cannot be compared with the trouble in 1877. It may be that the class of people who love violence and riot are growing less numer- ous in this country instead of more abund- ant, as many dire prophets of war and earnage have predicted. Hubley Cannot be Extradited, The case of Z. A. Hubley, who is accus- ed of swindling the Rythor Manufacturing Co. and other firms i n New York State, by purchasing goods without intending to pay for them, has drawn attention to an inter- esting point of the law in the matter of extradition. It appears that if a crime is committed outside of the State by the use of the mails, i t is impossible to arreBt the criminal on a requisition and take him for trial to the State in which his victims re- side. The laws provide only for cases where a person is charged with a crime in one State and flees therefrom and is found in another State, and the courts have uni- formly held that in order to bring a caso within the extradition laws the person charged must have been personally present in the State where and when the crime was committed, aDd that afterwards have de- parted therefrom, and that nothing less than actual presence will answer the re- quirements of the statute. The authori- ties on tho statute may be found in 3 Moore on extradition, section 581, &c. Therefore, unless it can be found that Hubley was in this State when the acts charged against him or some of them were committed, it would be quite idle for Governor Flower to issue a requisition for his surrender to the State authorities. The Governor of Massachusetts would probably not honor the requisition, and if ho should, Hubley could regain his liberty by application to the courts of that State for a writ of habeas corpus; and it i s not improbable that Hub- ley carried on his transactions knowing that he could not be brought into this State from tho State of Massachusetts upon any criminal accusation that might be made against him. Nearly a Fatal Push. At PotBdilm a few days ago, Isaac Wil- liams and H. M. Fearl, rival liverymen, were at the depot. Williams was talking to a man when Fearl stepped in front of him. This annoyed Williams and he gave Fearl a push. Fearl staggered and fell, cutting a bad gash in the back of his head on the edge of the walk. He became un- conscious and has since been in a dan- gerous condition. Williams claims that he had no intention of injuring Fearl when he pushed him. Stolen Watches Found. An old man named Tom Russell wander- ed over to the R. W. & O. R. K. cattle yard in Ogdensburg recently, and sat down near the ijnee t o eat some lunch that had been given him, and in getting up he put his hand oa the end of a projecting plank to,assist him. In so doing he exposed to view a gold watch. The old man noiifled the officials and a brief search result^ in finding another gold watch. The two watches were probably hidden there by thieves but it has not yet been learnod who the real owners are. If you want machine oils that will aot gum, bub them from Rice the druggist. . The Jefferson County Savings Bank in Spite of Hard Times and the Run of a Year Ago Shows Increased DeposltB. On July 7 of last year a panio occuired among the depositors of the Jefferson County Savings bank in thiB city, and for two days kept the officials hard at work and active in meeting the emergency. It Is unnecessary to review the history of the run on this old and substantial financial institution. The mere mention of the an- niversary recalls to the public mind the great excitement, the large and unreason- able demand upon the bank, and the splen- did courage and business promptness with which it was met. Instead of taking ad- vantage of the law, aB many other similar institutions were doing without criticism, by refusing to pay except on the 60 days notice, the bank kept its doors open and passed the money over its counters as rap- idly as a full force of officials could handle the books and the cash. Prompt measures were taken, under di- rect o i of President T. H. Oamp, t o secure an abundance of currency, and a royal sup- port was given by the other banning insti- tutions of the city. In two days the bank paid out $200,000 to frightened depositors. It would not have been unreasonable to suppose, in view of the extensive with- drawal of funds, and the hard times that have existed since, that the record of busi- ness for the bank for the present year would have been somewhat less than in former prosperous years. 8uoh is not the case, however, and the officers of the in- stitution have abundant reason to be pleas- ed over the 7lst semi-annual statement which they have just made to the State banking department. In spite oil unfavorable conditions, the bank has more than recovered the amount withdrawn during the run, and its present report is the best that it has ever made. When the run began the bank had deposits amounting to $1,992,288.55. Its present statement showB that it has $1,992, 8B0. 38, which is $651.83 more than it had before the run. The increase in deposits since January, 1894, has been $44,776 62 The interest paid to depositors on their money for the last 6 months is $34,111.97. The total interest for the year, from July, 1893, to July, 1894, is $66,980 66. The number of accounts opened and reopened for the year was 2,047. The number of accounts closed, including the large number caused by the run, was $!,- 791. The total transactions with deposi- tors in making the deposits and with drawals was 25,234, averaging 84 people transacting business with the bank every working day. The bank's surplus is $2S6,C01.74. These figures indicate better than anything else that could possibly be said the confidence which the people of Jefferson County havo in this old institution and the men who manage it, and also have a Bpecial interest Because of their cheering nature, showing that there are many frugal people and many sources of prosperity in this locality even at the present times. The list of officers and trustees is as follows: Officers—T. H. Camp, president; D. W. Baldwin, 1st vice president; Geo. W. Wig- gins, 2d vice president; Geo. H. Sherman, Sherman, secretary; ,George Smith, treas- urer; A. T. B Lansing, assistant treasurer, Trustees—T. H. Camp, Addison M. Farwell, Ross O. Scott, N. P. Wardwell, R. H. Huntington, Henry M Stevens, Alden F. Barker, George W. Wiggins, D. G. Griffin, D. W. Baldwin, A. L. Upham, J. R. Miller, J. A. Lawyer, George H. Sherman, O. W. Clare. The Jefferson County Savings bank was chartered in 1859, its first president being John I. Steele. During its long business career it has maintained an untarnished record, and has served all its depositors faithfully and honestly. The funds are chiefly invested in real estate mortgages, government, State and city bonds, in the selection of which absolute security has been the first consideration. The officers are all gentlemen of prominence in the commercial and professional circles of the city, and the scrupulous care with which they have guarded the funds placed at their disposal, and the success which has attended their management, indicate not only their ability, but that they duly ap- preciate the responsibilities of the truBt which has been reposed in them, and that they enjoy the reward of knowing that the Jefferson County Savings bank is regarded as one of the most reliable institutions in the State, HOUSES AND IiANDS.

Miss Lina McRey, aged 23 years, light hair, light complexion and blue eyes, has been a great sufferer for the past seven years. When Lina was a little girl her moth er (like many other mothers) proposed to give her an education at all hazards. Lina was to receive a thorough education and become a school teacher. Her mother was from a good old family and at her father's death received a handsome start in life of about $25,000; but like many other women who love too well, but not wisely, married a man who spent the greater portion of her fortune in drink and riotous living. Enough however, was saved to purchase a home and ten acres of land with it. Lina waB kept in school early and late and in addi- tion to her lessons at school her mother put her through a course of studies at home. After a time Lina bscame very nervous. Her features wore a tired look. She had no play; all work. She grew from bad to worse. A doctor was called who prescribed medicine, but no rest or out-of-door exer- cise. All of a sudden Lina began to mani- fest strange symptomB. Her changes ceased. She could not bo induced to shut a door, would not and could not Btep on the threshold of a door. Finally she could not or would not lace her shoeB, slept poor- ly, lost flesh, grow pale and bloodless, but was still kept in school. One day a t meal time her food seemed to stick in her throat She could not swallow it. From that time became fearful that she would choke to death; was also afraid that she might acci- dentally bo poiBoned. Every time she at- tempted to swallow solid food the mus- cles of her threat would cramp, She suf- fered from a spasmodic Btricturo of the oesphagus, and for seven years lived on fluid food, barely taking enough to keep soul and body together. In thTs helpless and hopeless condition she was taken to Dr. Smith at the Otis House and to-day she is a woll girl. She eats three good square meals daily, Full address will be furnished any one who may wish to con- sult her. Dr. Smith is permanently located in Watertown. Hia parlors are open from 9:30 A. M. to 4:80 P. M. daily, except Sun- days. Tou had better go and see him if you want to be made well. Lotters must contain postage. SAYE YOUR MONEY Here's the opportunity.
