After some discussion on the call, Rev. Dr. Mason moved that they do not deem it ex- pedient to diszuss the subject; lost. Rey. Dr. Lanahan said he had learned much of the subject recently, and he quoted from the N.

Rev. G. V. Leech moved ‘that a committee of three be appointed to gather information on this subject, and report to a subsequent general meeting of the pastors. Rev. Mr. Little remarked that the old Board of Health of this District had attempted some- thing of this kind, and it resulted in thetr going out of office, their design being made apparent in the Senate. He suggested that this cora mittee should ascertain the feeling of the mer- bers of Congress on the subject. ‘The motion was adopted. Rey. Dr. Domer su negested that perhaps they would better succeed if they took action as indi- viduals and not as a class. Rey. Dr. Reilly suggested that he never knew wheu ministers united that they did not secure the infiuence of the laymen. Rev. Dr. Domer said he did not suggest that they throw off their ministerial character, but thought these objects would be better accom- plished by laymen acting. Rey. G. V. Leech suggested that the commit- tee to be appointed should have power to select men. Rey. Drs. Lanahan, Rankin and Butler were appointed, and authority was given them to appoint laymen upon the committee. ev. Mr. Leech suggested that to the subse- quent meeting laymen be invited by the com- mittee; adopted. ‘The meeting adjourned.

HapPi.y SETTLED BY MaTRIMON -A Cincin- nati Gazelle special from Fort Wayne, March 25, Says:—An interesting sersation is given to the public by the city papers, Miss Emma Bart- lett, a handsome and attractive young lady of about 19, said to be a member of a wealthy and aristocratic Chicago family, while visiting with relatives here was suddenly taken ill and before the nature of the disease was fully understood she was the mother of a bouncing boy.

Collett wos TeegTAr neg) for and came here im- mediate! nfessed_being the father of Miss Darietts ‘child and offered marriage as the only reparation in his power. ‘This was ac- cepted, and the couple wi be married as soon as Misé Bartlett is able to goto Chi for that purpose. Her relatives were notified of the ac- cident which had befallen her, and, while deeply humiliated, put the best possible face on the matter, especially in view of Collett’s prompt matrimonial offer. THE SALVATION ARMY MAKING RELIGION RIDICULOUS.—The “Salvation Army” from Lo) don is making religion ridiculous in New Yori though these “captains” and “lieutenants” are doubtless sincere enough. We do not object to jorant advocates of Christ in their pro as place, but it 1s no part of our rellgon to prominence to ignorance. We hold that ersons who have not mastered the use of the letter h cannot possibly be called to proclaim Christ tn the streets. The reason is that It requires only a little force of character and conscientious in- dustry to learn this part of the alphabet; and people who are so lazy and slovenly that they Will not master this small lesson, are too lazy to be examples and voices of religion.—Methodist. A SBLF-CONFESSED PoIsoNER.—Homer Wel- lington, of Cambridge, Mass., who was arrested last week for forgery, was served with a war- rant_ yesterday morning charging him with murder.

He denies poisoning the boy, but confesses giving poison to hjs wife several times, The medical examiner states that Wellington’s child died of Ltd by arsenic, which was administered at several different times, DEATH OF GEN.

The Way by Which it Gets Into the System and How it can Be Kept out. Some Netwe Scientijio Facts of Great Im- portance. One of the most important revelations of the | present time is the discovery boyond a doubt that Uric Acid in the blood is the causo of ali Rheumatic troubles. This acid causes a fermentation, which gives great pain to the muscles, stiffens the Joints, and often blasts thine entire life. The natural quos- Hon is: “How does this poisonous uric acid get into the blood? *" ‘The answer is easy: Tei the kidneys do not properiy perform their functions und throw off this throush thus permitting it to get scattered though the entire system. This is loic; it is science. It is «oing right to the souree of the stream. as all read- ra can readily sce.
