The Convention will operate as a newspaper from Chicago to be called the "Western Baptist." The Convention will do distinctive educational work. Some plans are now forming for this work. Baptists fail the need of a stronger western institution. What the plan is to be will be made public at the next meeting. There is a strong sentiment to help Missouri Baptists in the development of Western College. The officers of the Convention are: President, T. L. Griffith, Des Moines. Secretary, Rev. E. A.

Philadelphia capitalists are planning to erect a $1,500,000 hotel in Yokohama, Japan, from plans designed by Philadelphia architects. It is to be eight stories in height, will contain about 400 bedrooms and suites and many baths, with a garden courtyard in the center. It is to be called the Grand hotel, and appears to be wholly an American investment. It is estimated by the national authorities that not less than $350,000 of the new ten dollar gold certificates will be needed to satisfy the demand for smaller bills. However, it is not at all likely that any creditor will object to having that little account settled with plain, ordinary greenbacks, or "kick" even at "car wheel" silver dollars. One of the newspapers of Peking China, has lately celebrated the five hundredth anniversary of its establishment. During its long period of publication the editorial staff has several times been beheaded, either in front of the office or in it, for printing news which displeased the court. The expression, "he has severed his connection," may be Chinese newspaper English. A great deal has been said about the facility of the Japanese in adopting and adapting western methods. Even our language appears to gain something from their use of it. It is told of one Gen. Kuroki's party that when his opinion of America was asked, he replied: "Your country is full of remarkableities, but I find the weather curseworthy." Two noteworthy words in a single breath! The sultan of Turkey has just become father to his thirteenth living child, a baby daughter. The oldest child of the sultan is Princess Sultan who is 37 years old. He is in disgrace, and does not rank as the heir apparent. The sultan, in order to reduce the number of pretenders to the throne, has established the practice of marrying his daughters to persons of little consequence, from whom no political danger used be feared. He is genuinely fond of one daughter, the beautiful 20-year-old Princess Ayshe, born of a Circassian mother. She has received a European education. Oysters in their native waters are wild animals. So the attorney general of New York lately informed an assessor who asked him whether he should assess oyster beds as real or personal property. When oysters are artificially planted, according to this legal opinion, the become "domesticated, tame, or 'arden' oysters," and as rich as personal property. Although the attorney general does not interpret the law concerning salify, or oyster-plant, it is probable that the courts would hold that this also, when tamarid, is personal property. It certainly would be when cooked and eaten. Although at the retiring age, Justice David J. Brewer, of the United States supreme court, reminds in full health and maturity of his faculties, and it is good news that he has no present intention of leaving the bench. His great ability as a jurist and scholar has come to be universally recognized. King Edward has given the Victorian order's declaration to Caruso, which shows that the king does not read the New York newspapers closely. Long island burglaries use a race horse in their business. They figure that their victims won't kick so hard when they realize they've lost their money on one of the ponies. Every man, woman and child in the United States will be crazy in 300 years, according to Dr. Kellogg. As they will be dead, we don't see that $m matters much.

Should list of the ingredients of Peruma be submitted to any medical examination of what school or nationality he would be obliged to admit without reserve that the case of him was of undoubted value in clinical cataral diseases and had laid the scent of many years' experience in the treatment of such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHATEVER. Peruma is composed of the most efficacious and universally used herbal remedies for catarach. Every ingredient of Peruma has a reputation of its own in the cure of some phase of catarach. Peruma brings to the home the OOBMINED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treatment of catarach diseases; brings to the home the scientific skill and knowledge of the modern pharmacist; and last but not least, brings to the home the vast and varied experience of Dr. Hartman, in the use of catarach remedies, and in the treatment of catarach diseases. The fact is, chronic catarrh is a disease which is very prevalent. Many thousand people know they have chronic catarrh. They have visited doctors over and over again, and been told that their case is one of chronic catarrh. It may be of the nose, throat, lungs, stomach or some other internal organ. There is no doubt as to the nature of the disease. The only trouble is the remedy. This doctor has tried to cure them. That doctor has tried to prescribe for them. BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO BREAK ANY RELIEF. Dr. Hartman's idea is that a catarrh remedy can be made on a large scale, as he is making it; that it can be made honestly, of the purest drugs and of the strictest uniformity. His idea is that this remedy can be supplied directly to the people, and no more be charged for it than is necessary for the handling of it. No other household remedy so universally advertised carries upon the label the principal active constituents, showing that Paruna invites the full inspection of the critics.

PASHA WILL BE HELD LIABLE Party Rescuing Bodies of Murdered Men Fired on by Arabs and Forced to Flee Tangler, Aug. 2—Dr. Kole, who arrived here on Wednesday night on the German ship which brought a number of Jews and other refugees from Casa Blanca, is the bearer of a report to the French charge d'affaires here, showing that the slaughterer in Casa Blanca was an outcome of the war preached by the Arabs to the extermination of Europeans. On Monday a number of Arab chiefs entered Casa Blanca and demanded that the harbor improve the passage in Casa Blanca, the passa of Casa Blanca pointed out that the work was being done with the sanction of the sultan, whereupon the chiefs replied that the sultan was no longer their ruler, as he obeyed the Christians. They then began to take the place to exterminate all Jews and Europeans. Tuesday morning the natives began their attack by stoning a European, and when this man tried to flee he was surrounded and hacked to pieces. The attack, and as soon as the attack came known the French and Spanish residents rushed to their respective consulates for protection. During this flight at 8:35 eight were murdered, the French consul, danced that the French consul, an escort for the recovery of the bodies, the pascha pleaded at first that he had no cartridges, but upon further representations he finally supplied an escort for the rescue party, however, reached the harbor and attack it was charged by a number of Arab cavalrymen and forced into flight. In the meantime, while the Jews at the menmeans were taking refuge on board the former sultan's sultans began to attack the laborers employed on the harbor works. They fired on the shore boats and killed several men, whose bodies subseq-ently were burned. One workman killed elicited off to a ship was shot in the water. There was one German and one French steamer in the harbor at Casa Blanca when the Arab steamer pulled in. It is estimated that Casa Blanca will be invaded by 20,000 Arabs today. The French cruiser Gaillac, which left here last night for Casa Blanca should arrive there today. VANDAMAN LOSES. Is Defeated in Race for Mississippi Senatorship. Vicksburg, Miss, Aug 2—Sattered returns indicate that John Sharp Williams, a statesman, has defeated Governor Vardman, to whom the title or demagogue is frequently applied for. The returns owing to the length of the tickets are slow in coming in but the outlook is excellent for a heavy majority for the congressman over his negro batting opponent, the last reports indicating that Williams has bened Vardman by 3 to 1. the campaign waged between the two, the Vardman won, which of, course, settles the issue in this state, has been full of interest because of the personalities of the men involved and the means they have relied on to gain the popular suffrage. Vardman has sought to outpitchwork Tillman and would have gone to the polls, but the results of repealing the fifteenth amendment to the United States constitution. Williams has claimed that there is no negro voting issue in Mississippi and since the negro never is allowed to vote here, this contention seems to be justified. He has campaigned on the question of whether the regulation in particular. The two men have met in joint debates during the campaign and Williams has had much the better of it from any standpoint except that of his hailing, melodramatic rhetoric 15 which the long-running campaign has used. In the contest for governor, Scott and Noel are leading with the vote very close. THIRTY KILLED IN RUSSIA. Troops in Bloody Street Battle with Strikers. Lodz, Aug. 2.—This city yesterday was again the scene of a strike movement, accompanied by violence, disorder and death. The troops encounters some men, some women and some thirty men were killed or wounded in this fight alone. Business is at a standstill. In spite of the aggressive stand taken by the authorities the disorders become more acute and the strike is serious; it would appear to be the beginning of a big labor war and the workers' unions are prepared for a long struggle. The immediate cause of the outbreak on Wednesday was the police during the past eight lays in making a large number of arrests in attempts to break up the unions. The principal socialist leaders have been thrown into jail. The police have been against their measures against the unions that they have united the social democrats, the Polish socialists and the nationalists, parties, who up to the present time, have been known merciless war, accustomed to daily insults and outrages among them selves.

Unquestionably those now living may see the time when in some years the United States will import when if a surplus can be found anywhere. As a rule, however, we may expect to continue to export grain forever. The oldest and most densely populated of the world continue to export grain. We endures there will always be exchanges of surpluses. As to our production we are probably gearing our maximum under present methods of cultivation. It is, however, easily possible to double our output by better methods of agriculture which we shall gradually adopt as increasing prices the pressure of population warrant the increased outlay in production. Chinese Jews. American interest in China since the boxer rebellion has extended to the Chinese Jews, who settled at Kafungfu during the Han dynasty, that ruled China from 200 B.C. to 200 A.D. The Kafungfu colony is mentioned occasionally by European travelers, among them Marco Polo in the 1000 and 1704 they were visited by Jesuit missionaries. To-day, according to Alfred K. Glover, writing in the Overland Monthly for May, the Chinese Jews are almost extinct, but their records and historical tablets are carefully preserved. Another Variety.

THE CHURCHES SECRET ORDERS. NEW RAILROAD In Acordance with the Pure Food Laws of the U. S. Ingenuity In Stealing **What's all the row about?"** the hungry man quarried to the manager of the city restaurant was seen to rush excitedly to the cashier's desk and detain a departing individual. The waiter explained. For a month past some of the numbered checks had been missing, and it had been discovered that certain patrons were economizing at the expense of the management. A man would order 15 cents' worth and receive a check for the amount. Then he would secrete the check when the waiter wasn't looking and order a quarter's worth of eatables. The waiter would then give a check for 40 cents, but when it came time to pay the customer would use the 15-cent ticket to get by the door. "H'm," muttered the hungry man; "the scheme," and in the excitement he passed a Canadian dime on the cashier. **Subscribe for the Iowa State Bystander.**
