The light and life of our influence reaches far or near In propor- tion to the truth and intensity with which we dignify and impress our principles. In the convening of this convention, in the planning of its members for carrying forward the special work of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, we republish and re- emphasize our convictions and give expression to a faith and aspiration which alone enables the weak ® prevail against the mighty.

Then as now In the temperance cause there were those brave enough to defend the sacred rights of freedom. Abolitionists then raised the banner of fm- mediate and unconditional .emancipation. They had their Garrison and Lovejoy. editors: Wen- dell Phillips and Lucy Stone. orators, and John G. Whittier, poet.

Spectal Cabls to The Call and New York Her- aid syright, 1900, by the Herald Pub- lishing Compy LONDON, Oct. 28.—The usual guess sto- ries told with an air of authority about the new challenger for the America’s cup have started. One published in yesterday’'s papers was to the effect that Shamrock I will be built of steel, and that bronze and aluminum, of which it will be remem- bered, the first Shamrock was made, will enter but little into her composition, Such stories should be received only for what they are worth—as fables, mere guesses. Absolute secrecy will be maintained as to the construction of the second boat, as was the case with the first. Of what ma- terial she will be built will not be made known for some months to come. Sir Thomas Lipton was asked to-day what he had to say about the New York Yacht Club’'s adherence to the five and a half hour limit for races, when it had been re- ported that he had asked for a revision to_six hours, “Oh,” sald Sir Thomas, ‘nobody must run away with the idea that 1 asked any such thing. 1 merely put it forward as a nothing more than that. 1 bled Mr. Oddie, telling him in ny thanks.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Oct. 23— In a game replete with sensational plays the team from the Paio Alto High School tied /the university freshmen this after- noon. Throughout every moment the ball was in play the members of t.e opposing teams strove their utmost to turn the scale of victory. The first half resulted in no score, though the freshmen were forced back to their 15-yard line by the fierce bucking of Tarpey. In the second half both teams scored— the High School when Wylle broke through the cardinal line and crossed the goal after a beautifu) 35-yard run, and the freshmen after they had been given the ball on the offside plar of thelr oppo- nents.

It is believed that noth- ing will now intervene to delay the ending \ of the contest which has run more than five weeks. President Mitchell was asked on his ar- rival from Pottsville to-night on what he based his belief that the strike would end this week, but he declined to say any- | thing other than that the proposition of | the miners was so fair that he could see | no valid reason why the operators should | | not accept. President Mitchell declined | to say what course would be pursued if | one or more companies refu 10 guar- antee the payment of the increase until April. ‘A meeting of the national executive board of the United Mine-workers of America and the officers of the three an- thracite districts will be held here (o | morrow for the purpose, Mr. Mitcheil ys, of thoroughly canvassing the situa- tion. He would not say whether the con- ference would take any positive action looking toward the calling off of the strike. f any action will be taken, he sald, it would depend entirely upon what the canvass would show. In answer to another question the iabor leader said he would not take the responsibility upon himself of calling off the strike. but would rather have the national board vote upen the question. PO‘)TTSVILLB, Pa., Oct. 23.—President Mitchell in his speech this afternoon said he believed that in a few days all the op- erators will have posted notices guaran- teeing the 10 per cent. He also sald that he belleved that by Monday at the latest all of the men will have returned to work and will have won everything they struck or. Rain fell heavily during the morning, but the large crowd, estimated at nearly 6000 persons, did not seem to mind the downpour. John Fahey, president of the district, presided. President Mitchell's speech was listened to with great interest. is most important atterance bearing di-,| rectly on the ending of the strike was as follows: “T belleve it will be but a few days longer until the operators in the Hazie- ton, Lackawanna and Wyoming valleys will consent to post notices agreeing to ay the 10 per cent increase in wages un- ?fl April 1. I belleve that if You stand together the rest of this week by Monday at least you can return to work with everything won you struck for.” President Mitchell then made a plea after the contest is over just as they are doing row. — - — OPERATORS POST NOTICES.

Not What Makes a Remedy Valuable. Is Testimonials are good things and we are always glad to get them, but they don’'t make our remedy any better. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are good be- cause they do good—because they cure. Testimonials simply prove that the Tab- lets have helped other people, but it's yourself you are most interested in, and Whether they will cure you is the ques- on. It is very easy to find out—try them. A full package costs but fifty cents at your druggist’s. They are worth that if they only help you a littie bit. The chance is_worth taking at the price. We put it on that basi§ because you don’t know about the tablets. If you knew as much about them as we do you would have complete confidence; this ad- vertisement would be unnecessary.
