CONGRESS ADJOURNS
Lively Scenes at Closing Sessions of Both Houses.
SPEAKER JOINS IN SONG "DIXIE"
Debate Occupied Time of Senators Up
to the Last Moment—Finale
Was Calm and Serene,
Amid a scene of enthusiasm that has not been paralleled since the exciting and stirring days of the Spanish war, Speaker Henderson, at 5:30 Tuesday afternoon, declared the house of representatives adjourned without day. In so doing he said that no house of representatives since the adoption of the constitution had done as much work as this one.
The audience to which he made his brief address was a brilliant one. The galleries were banked to the doors and almost two-thirds of the members were in their seats on the floor. The speaker's appreciative words to the members thanking them for their cooperation during the session had touched a responsive chord and they gave him a remarkable demonstration of their friendship and good will.
While the cheering and applause were still in progress the members on the floor began singing "My Country, Tis of Thee." It was taken up by the correspondents in the press gallery over the speaker's chair, and by the spectators in the surrounding galleries, and soon the vast hall was ringing with the swelling chorus. Other patriotic airs followed as the members exchanged farewells, "The Star Spangled Banner" alternating with "Dixie." The speaker came down from his rostrum, his appearance on the floor being greeted with "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow," and a perfect rush of members to grasp his hand.
Standing in front of the clerk's desk, he, too, joined in the songs and there was a wild scene when General Hooker, of Mississippi, the one-armed confederate veteran, took his place by the side of the speaker, and together they sang "Dixie." Mr. Canaler, a Mississippi democrat, jumped upon a desk and let out a yell of jubilation that fairly shook the rafters. For almost a half hour the jubilation continued. All this time the spectators remained standing in the galleries, watching the animated scene below, and joining in the singing.
The adjournment came at the end of a seven and one-half hours' session during which much minor business was transacted. In all, seventy bill's and resolutions were passed.
After a session marked by some of the stormiest debates ever heard in the American congress, the senate also adjourned sine die at 5:30 Tuesday afternoon.
During the last hours of the session there was a tart debate on the Philippines question, participated in by Messrs. Carmack, of Tennessee; Spooner, of Wisconsin; Culberson, of Texas; McComas, of Maryland, and Lodge, of Massachusetts. The conference report on the Philippine government bill was adopted without very serious opposition, and when the decks of the senate were cleared for adjournment, Mr. Carmack called up his resolution providing for a continuance of the investigation of the Philippine committee during the present summer. This started the trouble, and for more than an hour a battle of words was waged. The resolution was referred to a committee, thus effectually killing it.
Just before adjournment, the usual resolutions were adopted, including one offered by Mr. Cockrell, the venerable democrat of Missouri, cordially thanking President Pro Tem. Frye for "the dignified, impartial and courteous manner in which he had presided over the deliberations of the senate." After the adoption of the resolution, Mr. Frye delivered a feeling response and then declared the senate adjourned without day.

SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JULY 5. 1902
RIOTING ON A TRIAN
Whites and Blacks Engage in Fierce and Gory Conflict.
TWO DEAD AND MANY WOUNDED
Ten White Men Receive Bullets or Cuts—Two Wounded Negroes Were Afterwards Taken from Jall and Shot to Death.
There was a serious riot on board the Southern railway train that left Augusta, Ga., about 6 o'clock Saturday evening.
Just before the train stopped at the water tank at Langley, eight miles from Augusta, there was some trouble between several negroes and a white man named John McDaniel. A fight was begun and pretty soon was general between the white men and negroes in the car. Pistols and knives were called into play by both sides, and the conductor pulled the train up to the station in the hope of getting police help at Langley. At the train stopped at Langley some of the combatants rushed out and the fighting between whites and blacks became general on the train and all around the station. The negroes engaged in the fighting fled in all directions, and when the smoke of battle cleared away there were only two captured. They were quickly placed in the lock-up at Langley.
There were ten white men with pistol or knife wounds. When the train pulled out of the station some of the combatants were still on board, and it is reported some were turned over to officers at Alken and at Graniteville, stations farther on. Only one of the white men, Ony Carter, received a dangerous wound. The people of the town of Langley and from the surrounding country were soon aroused. Mutterings against the two wounded negroes under arrest were heard, and as the night approached and the wounds of the white men were discussed, the conviction grew that the two negroes in the calaboose were in serious danger.
Between 11 and 12 o'clock the crowds in the streets of Langley had been greatly augmented by men coming in from all directions and the mob moved on the jail. Entrance was forced and when the wounded negroes were discovered the crowd started emptying their pistols into them, and they were soon shot to death.
STORM IN TENNESSEE.
Loss of Seven Lives and Enormous Financial Damage Reported.
Reports of fatalities and great damage to property in the vicinity of Chattanooga as a result of the storm Saturday afternoon continue to be received. It is said the damage to farm lands is almost inestimable. James Greyson, a proprietor, of a saw mill on Walden's Ridge, near Chattanooga, and Jesse May, his sawyer, were both killed during the storm. The mill was blown down upon them. Reports from other points indicate that aside from the loss of seven lives the financial damage has been quite heavy. Trees, barns and outhouses of many farmers have been blown away and considerable grain has been lost.
BIG RÁCKET IN-HAITI.
Revolutionists Make Things Lively in the Streets of Copenhagen
the Streets of Cape Haitien.
There was much fighting at Cape Haitien, Haiti, Sunday and great excitement prevails. Admiral Killick, commander of the Haitian fleet, has disbarked a further detachment of troops and a large quantity of ammunition for the better protection of General Firman, one of the candidates for the presidency of the republic.
In the meantime the vessels under the command of Admiral Killick were bombarding Cape Haitien. This action was taken without previous notification to the foreign consuls who were forced to embark on a gunboat under the protection of their various flags.
"JAKIE" IS HOMEWARD BOUND.
With Twenty-Fourth Infantry He Sails
From Marilla for San Francisco.
Brigadier General Jacob H. Smith, formerly in command of the American forces on the island of Samar, who was recently tried by court martial, left Manila'Sunday for San Francisco, on the transport Thomas. A large number of persons assembled to bid him farewell. All the newspapers of Manila have printed eulogies of General Smith, and even the Filipino papers say that the most cruel methods of ending a war in the long run are the wisest and most humane.
ABSORPTION IS NOW EFFECTIVE
Atlantic Coast Line Takes Charge of Plant System Roads—Tempo
porary Organizatlon
The absorption of the Plant system
by the Atlantic Coast Line railroad,
which was announced some months
ago and which since that time has
been quite a live topic in railroad circles,
became effective Tuesday, July
1st.
Circulars issued by the Coast Line have provided a temporary organization which it is believed will largely remain as the permanent organization of the road. For the present the system will be operated from Wilmington, but in two divisions. The passenger department will have headquarters at Wilmington, while the freight department will have headquarters both in Wilmington and Savannah.
The Southern has begun the use of the trackage rights of the Plant system between Savannah and Jacksonville, which it acquired at the time of the arrangement for the consolidation. For the present it is understood that the Southern will continue its train service on these lines as it is run at present. The only difference will be that the trains will be pulled by Southern locomotives and manned by Southern crews.
Per Diem Charges Begin.
At 12 o'clock Monday night the system of per diem charges for the use of freight cars went into effect in place of the old system mileage charges which has been used by the roads for a number of years. The new system will, it is thought, greatly improve the freight service of the roads all over the country, as it will cause a more prompt handling of freight and will in a large measure do away with the car shortages, which have been so annoying to the railroad managers in recent years.
At one time it was thought that the change from the old to the new system would be an almost impossible task for the car accountants to perfor min the limited time that was given them, but it is now generally believed that the change will be accomplished without a hitch.
President John M. Egan, of the Central of Georgia, in discussing the new system, said:
"The inauguration of the new system will cause the car accountants very little trouble, as they have prepared themselves for it. I believe that the new system will greatly simplify the work of keeping up with our freight cars and that the public will also derive great benefit from the improved freight service that will go given as the result of the roads being better able to keep their cars on their own lines."
WILL OF MILLIONAIRE ROUSS.
Property Estimated at $1,500,000 and Goes to Son and Daughter. A copy of the will of the late Charles Broadway Rouss, of New York, has been deposited in the county clerk's office at Waxahatchie, Texas to be recorded. The will is a lengthy document and disposes of property of the estimated value of $1,500,000.
Cash bequests to the amount of $414,500 are made, and $32,500 continuing annuities are devised by instrument. The mercantile business, buildings, etc., of the deceased are left to his son, Peter W. Rouss, and daughter, Virginia Duane Lee, jointly, with a provision that should the son elect he shall have the exclusive control, management and revenues of the business by paying to the daughter the sum of $25,000 per annum.
VETERAN "KNOT-TYER" DEAD.
Justice Haus Held Record of 6,000 Couples, Mostly Eloners.
Magistrate John H. Hause, of Jeffersonville, Ind., who for many years was one of the most unique characters in southern Indiana, is dead. He was 65 years of age and during the ten years in which he held the office of magistrate in Jeffersonville he is said to have married 6,000 couples, the majority of whom were clopers.
ALL QUIET AT LANGLEY.
Coroner-Holds Inquest Over Bodies of Negroes Killed by Mob. Everything was quiet at Langley, Ga., Monday. The wounded in Saturday night's fight are doing well, and the surgeon attending them, believes that they will all recover. Coroner Plunkett, of Alken county, held an inquest Sunday morning over the bodies of the two negroes shot to death by the mob. The verdict was that they had died from the effects of gunshot wounds in the hands of parties unknown. The bodies presented a grusome sight, having remained where they had fallen all night
BAILEY PUGNACIOUS
Texan Chokes Senator Beveridge of Indiana.
ANOTHER ROW IN THE SENATE Beveridge Used Words that Lacerated Feelings of Texas Senator and
A Washington special says: The floor of the senate chamber was the scene, shortly after adjournment Monday, of a sensational personal encounter between Senator Bailey, of Texas, and Senator Beveridge, of Indiana. Senator Bailey had his hands at Senator Beveridge's throat and was' endeavoring to choke him when other senators and senate officials pulled the two men apart. Senator Beveridge made no effort to defend himself.
Senator Bailey, exasperated at the failure of the Indiana senator to retract what he considered a personal insult, endeavored to get at him to slap his face, but was prevented by Senators Sloofter and McComas and Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms Layton. For the present, at least, the incident is closed.
The encounter was the outcome of a verbal, tilt indulged in by the two senators during the afternoon, during which the Indianian made a statement which the Texan said was offensive to him, and which he requested to be withdrawn. Beveridge at the time declined to withdraw his remarks, and persisted in this course after the close of the session, when Mr. Bailey went to him to talk the matter over. It was then that the trouble occurred.
The matter which was under discussion when the two senators engaged in the controversy was Senator Bailey's resolution introduced some days ago directing the secretary of war to transmit to the senate all the papers in the case of Scottt against Beilenberg, Scott, it will be remembered, is a citizen of Texas who claims that he was unjustly treated by Beilenberg, who at one time was United States consul at Matumoras, Mexico. Speaking in favor of his resolution, Mr. Bailey improved the occasion to severely criticise Ambassador Powell Clayton and officials of the state department, including Solicitor Penfield.
Penfield was appointed at the instance of the two Indiana senators and is a personal friend of Mr. Beveridge. The latter characterized the Texan's criticism as "an unwarranted attack" on Penfield, and it was this statement, and particularly the manner in which it and subsequent remarks were made, that Senator Bailey considered offensive. Senator Bailey had declared that the treatment of the Scott case by the state department officials showed either ignorance or lack of integrity.
Senator Beveridge in defending Judge Penfield, went out of his way to impugn Senator Bailey's motives.
AFTER UNRULY STRIKERS.
Citizens of Wilkesbarre Offer Large Rewards for Wrong-Doers.
The Citizens' Alliance of Wilkesbarre, Pa., offers rewards aggregating $5,000 for the arrest and conviction of all persons engaged in boycotting, hanging effigies and other criminal acts of American freedom. A reward of $1,000 is offered for the arrest and conviction of any one who enters into a conspiracy to boycott any individual, firms or corporation. For hanging anybody in effigy $500 reward will be paid. At strike headquarters it is claimed that the offering of such rewards will cause irresponsible detectives to arrest innocent people in the hope of securing rewards.
Galveston Invites Roosevelt.
The president Monday received an invitation from the business,men of Galveston to visit that city. He said he would take the matter under advisement.
GREAT DAMAGE.BY STORM.
Loss Estimated at a Million Dollars In Vicinity of Alton, Ill.
A low estimate placed on the damage wrought within a radius of 150 miles of Alton, Ill., by the storm of wind and rain that prevailed, last Saturday night and Sunday is $1,000,000.
While the farmers are the heaviest losers, the railroads also suffered severely.
Railroad traffic in the bottom lands was completely shut off temporarily. Reports received Monday, moving from the Plazza creepers to say that the farmers lost their entire crop of wheat.
NOT A BILL WAS VETOED.
President Was on Hand at Close of Congress and Signed All Measures With Good Grace.
There was a large pile of bills placed before the president Tuesday afternoon when he and his cabinet repaired to the capitol to assist in winding up the first session of the fifty-seventh congress.
President Roosevelt was in a signing mood, for he approved every measure placed before him. There were no vetoes; not even a pocket veto to mar the closing proceedings. A general feeling of satisfaction prevailed on all sides, and even the president was noticeably cordial in his greetings to the "boxer" senators who killed his pet measure. Cuban recolprocity.
In summing up the results of the session and its effect on the political situation, republicans and democrats differ widely, but both are equally confident their respective parties have been materially benefited by the work of the session.
Republican leaders, like Hanna, Lodge, Spooner, Dolliver and Henderson declared that the republican party has accomplished its work in a manner which will give universal satisfaction throughout the country, and have a good effect on the election returns next fall. They insist that the voters of the country have no complaint to make at the failure of the republicans to do something in the direction of tariff reduction, anti-trust legislation and reciprocity during the session just closed. They also deny that there is anything in the nature of strained relations between the president and his party friends in congress by reason of the failure of Cuban reciprocity.
On the other hand, Senators Jones, of Arkansas; Bailey, Carmack, Cockrell and Teller claim that the democrats have an opportunity to profit by the misdeeds of their political opponents. The republicans promised something in the way of tariff reductions and anti-trust legislation. They have smothered both of these great subjects, are uncertain and indefinite on the Philippine question, and they are practically in open war with their president on the subject of Cuban reciprocity. In addition it is claimed by the democrats that they have piled up appropriations aggregating over a billion dollars, which fact will make good-campaign material.
The president arrived at the capitol at 4:10 p. m., and went directly to the president's room in the senate wing. After a visit to the room, which he had occupied for a very short time in the spring of 1901, when he was vice president, the president returned to his room and signed the bills which had lately been passed, among those of importance being the Philippine government bill and the naval appropriation bill.
The Philippine bill was presented to the president by Senator Lodge, who had been closely following its course through the various legislative channels. Secretaries Hay, Shaw, Moody, Hitchcock and Wilson and Postmaster General Payne were with the president. During a short executive session, one of the senators undertook to take Mr. Payne inside under the belief that a member of the cabinet was entitled to be present, but the postmaster general was escorted out again and informed that, while the president was entitled to enter the executive sessions, the privileges did not extend to his cabinet. Shortly after congress adjourned, the president, accompanied by Secretary Cortelyou, left the capitol.
PRESIDENT LAYS CORNER-STONE.
Dedicates Foundation of New Dutch Reformed Church in Washington.
"We here lay the corner stone of a house to be erected under the name of Grace Memorial Reformed-church, and tobe devoted to the worship of Almighty God. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen."
With these words President Roosevelt Tuesday placed the corner stone of the new edifice of the Dutch Reformed church at the corner of Fifteenth and O streets, with whose congregation he is a worshipper.
Barring a-Slight "Hurting," Nothing Occurs to Mar Rapid Convalescence.
A London special says: Saturday night passed with less incident at Buckingham palace than any other night since the operation was performed on King-Edward. The following bulletin was issued at 9 o'clock Saturday morning:
"The king feels stronger in spite of some discomfort from the wound. Nothing has occurred to disturb the satisfactory progress he made."

- AN unfortunate affair occurred on
Saturday night last at LanglyS. C.,
which could have been avoided if
the strict letter of the law was car-
ried out. The trouble was caused
by a white man getting in a dispute
with a colored man in the colored
coach of a railroad train. This led
to blows and to a riot, the result
being the death of two colored, men
the injury of several of both races.
The law of the state requires the
separation of the races on steamcars,
and if the white man who was the
cange of the trouble had remained
in the white coach there would have
been no trouble. It is a common
practice for white men to frequent
the cars alloted to colored passengers
and at many timed make it disagree-
able for them. Let the conductors
enforce the Jaws fully and there will
be no reoccurrenc of the Langly af-
fair.

very interesting and was greatly eu-
joyed by all present.
‘After this the Grand Lodge was
called on in ample form by Grand
Master H.R. Butler, M.D., according
to ancient usages, ‘with Grand Chap-
Tain,. Alex, Barr's, conducting the
devotional part. |
‘The eessions were full of business.
There were no useless talk or unnec-
eagary debate, nearly every piece of
legislation was done unanimously.
The omen to prove the harmony of
the session was the unanimous re-
election of all of the officers and
their immediate installation by
Past Grand Master John H. De-
yeaux.
Important matters were enacted
for the good of the jurisdiction.
The reports of the Grand officers
all tended to show the healthy con-
dition of the Grand Lodge. ‘Lhe
report of Grand Master Butler was
indeed inspiring. He'tonohed upon
every phase of the Grand Lodge and
had a ramedy for each evil. ‘Che
report showed much thonght and
time in its preparation. It was re-
ceived with applause.
One of the interesting features of
the session was the unveiling of the
tablet to deceased Grand Mastere.
Since the organization of the Grand
Lodge, thirty-two years ago. death
claimed only two Grand Mastera,
Anthony K. Desverney dnd William
B, Terry, ‘Their names were oti the
tablet which was -unveiled. Just
before the unveiling memorial ser-
vices were held in honor of the de-
ceased members of subordinate
lodges. Eulogies were delivered by
P. G, M. Deveaux and Grand Junior
Warden Snelson. This was inter-
sveraed by appropriate music led by
Worshipful Master G@. M. Holmes
of Atlanta, whois an adept at cho-
rag leading. The address at the
unveiling of the tablet was delivered
by Hon. Judson W. Lyons, Register
of the U.S. Treasurer. Past Grand

‘days session ever held.
NOTES. '
| High enconiuma were paid Grand
| Master Butler for his able and con-
scientious administration of the af-
faira of the Grand Lodge. He has
made aeveral needed reforms which
is only a beginning of what will be
done. His manner of dispatching
husiness and keeping the brethren
to the order of things received favor-
able comments. Dr. Butler is a man
of no mean ability, conscientions and
true to a principle. His stand tor
principle is leaving its impress and
all that is evil will have to fly before
it.
Big hearted and affable Charles A.
Clark was mised from the session.
On account of not having ‘sufficient
help, he could not leave his business.

Prof. H. Pearson of the Georgia State College and Rev. M. J. Hamilton, of the Brunswick Circuit, were elected secretaries, and Miss Belle Wiggins, the accomplished organist, was chosen organist for the conference.
The welcome address, beautiful in language and in sentiment, was well read by Miss Pearl McArthur, a little girl nine years of age. Rev. James Jackson of Savannah, responded in his usual del bate and forceful manner to the delight of all present. The regular routine business of the conference was transacted in the morning, the afternoons being given to Epworth League and Sunday school Convention and the evenings to evangelical services. The entire session was perfectly harmonious, pleasant and hospitable.
The reports of the pastors, Sunday school superintendants and Epworth League presidents showed that the work of the entire district was advancing. One charge, however, was embarrassed by a pressing debt made by the former pastor and asked for help from the district. This was cheerfully promised.
The evangelical services bore good fruit. The introductory sermon was preached by Rev. J. H. Canady of Olio; the missionary sermon by Rev. D. G. Green, of Jesup. Rev. M. J. Hamilton of the Brunswick Circuit; preached on "The power of the holy spirit"; Rev. O. N. Sumple of Brentwood, preached on "The New Birth."

There were quite a number of distinguished visitors most of whom made excellent addresses to the conference.
On Saturday evening, June 28, the conference adjourned sine die. Jesup will be the seat of the session of 1903.
Second Baptist Church.
Although the weather was extremely warm last Sunday, yet the attendance at all the services was good. The prayer meeting at 6, a.m. was fervent and helpful. At 11 o'clock, the pastor, Dr. Durham preached from Acts 1:8, subject "The progress of Christianity." As the doctor described in his own eloquent and impressive way how after the resurrection of Christ, Christianity started out from Jerusalem under the fires of persecution, and in its rapid and enward march bore down all opposition, met and overcame the Jew, the polytheism of the Roman, the wisdom and philosophy of the Greek and by the close of the third century had become the recognized religion of the great. Roman Empire; and as he told of the victories and triumph of Christianity since that time to the present and of greater victories and final triumph of Christianity over all powers and principalities in the years to come, the whole audience moved and swayed under the foremost and eloquence of the speaker. It was indeed a great sermon and made a deep and favorable impression upon the large congregation that heard it. At 8:30 p. m. the pastor also preached another very impressive sermon from Acts 16:25.
Mr. Walter Ranier and his bride were present at the 11 o'clock service and received the congratulations of their many friends The members of the Second Baptist church are in earnest about repairing their church edifice, and many of them are making liberal contributions.

- The attendance at the 11 a. m. service on Sunday was very good, notwithstanding the hot weather. Dr. J. L. Cole of Statesboro delivered an excellent sermon and everybody present was well benefited by what was said. It was an inspiring effort. Hymn 393, "Jesus and Shall it ever Be," was sung. His text was Psalm 37:4; subject "Experiences of a True Believer." At the close of the morning service a class of little misses, under the direction of Mrs. Bell Holmes, Mrs. M. A. Pheonix and Mrs. A. B. G. Carr, sung a beautiful selection, entitled "Keep the Sabbath Day Holy." It was very touching to hear those young voices appealing to the wayward, to keep the Sabbath holy and not to desecrate it. At 8 p. m. Dr. M. M. Ponton, Dean of the Theological Department of Morris Brown College, preached to a large congregation. Hymn 133, "Come, Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove," was sung. His text was James 2:23; theme "Friendship and the Means to Get It." This subject was well handled by the speaker, who is noted as such, and everybody who had the pleasure of
hearing him pronounced it one of the best discourses that has been delivered in this church for a good while. On Sunday night next, Rev. Cargile will speak to the Golden Aid Society. There will be held in this church in the near future. a mass meeting in the interest of the Young People's Congress which is to be held in Atlanta. The following services will be held on Sunday: Prayer-meeting at 5 a.m.; Love Feast at 11 a.m.; Sunday school at 2 p.m.; Holy Communion will be administered at 3:30 p.m.; preaching at 8 p.m.

in my womb, and the doctors declared I must go to the hospital and un-

“ My husband consulted an old frierid who had studied medicine,
although he was not a practising physician, and he said he believed
that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound would cure
me. That same day I took my first dose, and I kept it up faithfully”
until twelve bottles had been used, and not only did the tumor dis-
appear, but my general health was very much improved and I had
“not felt so well since I was a young woman.
«As I have suffered no relapse since, and as I took no other med-
icine} I am sure that your Compound restoréd my health and I believe
saved my life.”"—Mrs. D. ARNOLD. - 3

A BEGINNING OF MILLIONS.
The Chance Through Which One Man
Has Become nich.
- One Western millionaire came into
the possession of his wealth through
his o¥n abilitfes, beyond a doubt, but
St 3s also true that his opportunities
were excellent. And they came to.
him fn an unusual way.
It happened that the wifo of a very
rich man had for many years gone
to a certain shop in New York for
her gorns and had always been walted
upen by the same Woman. One morn-
Ing she went to the store to, order a
gown. After the business of getting
the new dress had been transacted,
the salesweman said to her:
“This will be the Jast time that I
shall have the pleasure of waiting on
you, Mrs. X., for Tam going to be mar-
re’.”
- -When the customer expressed an
“Interest In her plans the woman told
her that she and the man to.whom she
had beon engaged for several years
had decided that they might as well
get married as walt, especially: as she
had managed by prudence to save a
Uttle monoy, Said the customer:
“You bring your betrothed to my
house tonight to zee me. T would Itke
to mect him and have my husband
know him too.”
‘A time was set and that night the
salesticman and her betrothed yjsit-
ed the wealthy patron. The latter fn-
troduced ‘them to her husband, who
talked with the man and was favor-
ably Impressed with him. He learned
that the man was able to make only
a small Income at his business,
Before the man left the house, a
@ate for a subsequent visit had been
‘eet. The man, of course, came back
and tke result was a place for bim in
one of the millionaire’s mills near a
Western city.
‘That was his beginning. Today he
counts his millions on more fingers
| thaa bis two hands possess. And his
forture came through his meeting
, With the millionaire and his good luck
In{making a favorable impression on
him as well as on his ability to take
advantage ot the opportunities that
came to him—New York Sun.

signs herself “Alexandria” to her

‘The King’s telegrams are never kept

there are plenty of individuals wiliing
to pay heavily for a copy, trusting to
their own ingenuity as to whether they

a few years ago a journalist managed
to secure the blotting pad on which
the paper had reposed while the clerk

I would feel bloated after eating,
the plainest meal. I would suffer|
with headache that nearly drove
me crazy and would-be so nervous
that if any one spoke alittle quick
some I would cry.d could not help:
it. Iwas not fit for any kind of
work.’ Since I have been taking
Ripans Tabules the neighbors and
my friends notice the change and
inguire the cause. Ivalways say|
Ripans did it I take one after
each meal and one before retiring.
