PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND. MOURNING IN MANY A FAMILY Precious Lives That Might Have Been Saved If Paine's Celery Compound Had Early Been Used Instead of Putting Faith in Wortnless Cure-Alls. There should be new legislation against the exercise of criminal ignorance in times of sickness, Many 2 good family is in mourning to- day for the loss of a relative who, when | first the symptoms of serious sickness ap- peared, made the fatal mistake of simply taking the wrong medicine. As soon think of stopping the sun with a wave of the hand as of stopping the onward course of disease in the human system with any of the various patent copeoctions under patent names so num- | erously in the market to-day. There is but one remedy known to medi- cine that can bring new life and vigor to Worn out nerves, restore to their normal condition the functionsethat depend upon nerves and brain, properly nourished and fed, tbat cures sleeplessness, allays indi- gestiop, sends healthy blood coursing through the veins, tones up the system and makes the weak strong again, and that is Paine’s celery compound—the Jis- | covery of the greatest of America’s many great physicians. Paine’s celery ecompound is not a pat- ent medicine. It is the one prepared rem- edy that has the ungualified indorsement of those physicians whose knowledge and HON. R. L. McKEE. ahility have made their names known not cnly among their immediate nelghbors but throughout the country. No r prepared remedy was ever rec: ommended publicly or privately by the head of the medical department of a great university. No other remedy ever had the hearty, bona fide indorsement of the wives and households of the weal iest as well as the poorer citizens in every community. A single bottle, to be had of any repu- teble druggist, will prove its unequaled merit to any family where to-day some member suffers from the much-to-be- feared beginnings of what before the win- ter js past, unless attended to prompt may prove to be the final breakdown. “Paine’s celery compound,” says Hor. R. L. McKee of Jefferson City, one of the soundest men in publie life in Mis- | souri, “Paine’s celery compeund is so well known that I feel that a recommendation from me can add very little weight, but I do wish to gratefully recommend it to those who have never been so fortunate as to try it.” There is no season so favorable as thi; for taking advantage of the wonderfuil: renovating virtues of this remedy. Don't begin the winter in peor health. Nature does little at this season to rejuvenate un- aided the fagged out brain or to restore tc health the diseased nerves. Paine" ceiery compound nourishes perfectly the bedily system. It cures “iseases of the important organs of digestion, eirculation and excretion, regulates the entire ner ous system and supplies the body wi strength to combat disease. GET AWAY Frem the fact that laundry work, to be satisfactory, must be well done. Good laundry work tells its own story, and we're willing ours should do the tell- ing, confident that we will win your or- ders. No saw edges.

The far-reaching result of that action we have not yet begun to measure. To-day en the Western Elope there is another declaration of inde- pendence. and now, Mr. President, 1 ask that this body adopt the resolution by a rising vote. Mr. Prince of New Mexico followed and | said: It appears to me that the appropriate action of this body on this document which is pre- tented is a little different from that which is proposed by the church. The decument asks 2s a favor that the board hereafter make no | | appropriations. T hope that the board accedes 1o the request of the authorities of the diocesé of California, and_ trust that this admirable example thus set by the Californian will be followed by many other dioceses. | Both motions were carried. | MISSIONARY SOCIETIES { ARE TO BE IMPROVED The Bishop of Washington then intro- duced the following resolution: .Resolved, That a committee consisting of | five Bishops, five clergymen and five laymen | be appointed to report at the nextimeeting of the Board of Missions, such changes in the present canon 7, title 3, of the constitution of the domestic and foreign missionary societies, | as in its judgment may tend to promote greater efficiency in the work of that society. | | _The resolution was adopted, and Bishop Tuttle appointed the following committee: The Bishops of Alabama, Pennsylvania, West | Virginia, Tennessee, Washington, Rev. Edwin | 8. Lines, Connecticut; Rev. H. 8. Restarick, | Los Angeles; Rev. Edwin B. Niver, Maryiand; | Rev. Benjaniin Brewster, Colorado; Rev. James | Goodwin, New Hampshire; Joseph Packard, Maryland; Henry Hayes, Ohlo; Joseph Wilmer, Virgini illiam H. Leighton, Minnesota, and | John H. Stiness, Rhode Island. A delegate from Georgia offered.the fol- lowing resolution, which was referred to the committee on board of managers: Resolved. That the board of managers be di- | rected to request an appropriation of a specific | sum from each apnd every dliocese and from | | every church to cover the deficiency in the | | treasury of the board, and that the action of | | the board under this resolution be communi- | cated to the Bishops of every diocese, who | | are requested to take charge of the raising of | | | the money and all such collection be paid to | the board of managers. | DELIVERS THE REPORT - OF BOARD OF MANAGERS | The Bishop of Montana was then recog- nized and delivered a report of the board | of managers. He said: I am to speak on the report of the board of managers. I have mo criticism to make, bes { cause the work of the board of managers has | 1 been admirable and all that it should be. We | could noteplace our business in the hands of | | 2 better sét of men and no one could attena to it more faithfully. But the only thing we learn from that report is that, notwithstanding all at is done for dlocesan missions and for missions, we need a great deal more y for our geperal work than we receive. | And I also find a feeling throughout the church that we are perfectly able to provide that money. After studying the question over, I { ind that instead of the $500,000 that we do | receive for missions we ought to be receiving | | twice as much. It would enable us to stop f the grumblers. We would not Weoman's Auxiliary to do do. pay our debts. ause ceased the Bishop what they alwa; When the appla 1 offered the following resolution: | | | | | | i Resolved, That $1,600,000 be raised for general | | missions during the year beginning September 1 Resolved, That this sum be apportioned | among the different dioceses and missionary | districts and that the Bishop and deputiés of | each dioeese and missionary district be re- | quested to take measures to provide for the raising of the sum so appropriated. Resolved, That the offerings made through the American Church Missionary Soclety be | considered as a part of this §1,600,000. Resolved, That & committee consisting of three Bishop three presbyters and three lay- | men be appointed by the Board of Missions, ) Who, after consultation with the Bishops and | deputies from each diocese and misslonary dis- | trict, shall make this apportionment and report to this board before the adjournment of this convention, | Resolved, That this committee be continued | until the next General Convention and be in- structed to make the apportionment each year. L] | PRESBYTERIANS DISCUSS | WORK OF HOME MISSIONS te Resolutions Asking Congress Abolish Polygamy in All States | and Territories. The semi-annual meeting of the Presby- terial Society of Home Missions of San Franciseo was held yesterday in Trinity | Presbyterian Church. | The opening service was conducted by the president, Mrs. H. T. Ames; secreta- ries, Miss Morton, Mrs. W. Mead, Mrs. J. B. Roberts, Mrs. E. L. Wemple, Mrs. A. A. Britton and Miss M. E. Boyce, which was followed by short reports of the busi- ness transacted by the society. Mrs. T. Pediar read a report on the treasury and Mrs. H. L. King, Mrs. E. H. Avery, Mrs. Patterson, Mrs. A. L. Sobey and Mrs. Barry delivered short | addresses on matters pertaining to m sionary work. Mrs. Hemphill read a m orial service at the close of the fore- noon session. The afternoon session was opened with devotional service conducted | by Mrs. A. E. Bradley. Rev. Dwight E. Potter spoke of “The | Missionary Substitute Company,” saying in the course of his remarks that “many people do not believe in missions. It does | not matter what we think, but what God | ve. He does not ask our opinion, but | | our obedience.” There were vocal solos by Mrs. Mciee and Mrs. Carson and an address on “Op- portunity and Obligation” by Mrs. Hume, in which she paid a glowing tribute to the late President and decried the spirit of anarchy. Mrs. F. H. Jones introduced the lowing anti-polygamy resolution, which was unanimously adopted by the 'society: Whereas, The subject of polygamy is being discussed by the American people with a view to making gn amendment to the constitution of the United States preventing polygamy in every State and Te: ry in all its forms, and believing that polyga: & a violation of God's | low, 2 menace to cur homes and a disgrace to | our ‘nation, therefore be it | “Resolved, That San Francisco Preshyterian Scciety indorse the action of the International | Council of Women for Chrisfian and patriotic | service in their anti-polygamy crusade; and it ». | "Recoived.

JAMES A. GARFIELD PASSES THROUGH CITY | | | l Accompanied by Her Daughter She | | ‘Will Spend the Winter Months { at Pasadena. ‘ Mre. James A. Garfield, widow of the second martyred President of the United States, arrived here yesterday in a spe- cial car en route to Pasadena, where she | She is not | will spend the winter months. in good health and the trip from the East was very fatiguing to her. She is accom- panied by her daughter, Mrs. James Stan- ley Brown, and four grandchildren. Mrs. Garfieid did not leave her car on arriving at the Oakland mole. The car was taken | across the bay on the freight boat and coupled to the 6 o'clock train which left the Third and Townsend streets depot for Southern California. Colonel Hitchcock, local representative of the Union Pacific road, and William McMurray of the Southern Pacific met Mrs. Garfield at Oakland and accompa- nied her to this city. She did not like to diseuss the assassination of President Mc- Kinley, as it again opens the wounds of her own grief. She said to Colonel Hitch- cock, however, that she hoped that in the future the Govcrnment would take some steps to more rigorously guard the Presi- dents of this country. Sacerdotal Demagogism. Read the Wasp. * Successful Dickens Reading. A very large audience filled Sherman & Clay's Hall last night to listen to 2 num- ber of Dickens readi by Charlotte Graeber, interspersed with violin solos by George H. Kalthoff. Selections from “Pickwick Papers,” “Tale of Two Cities,"” “0ld Curjesity Shop” and “Holly Tree Inn” were excellently rendered. Mr. | 1ow | proval. The Rev. Dr. Mann of Western Missouri in seconding the resolution said that there appeared to be apathy in the church and timidity on the part of the board of man- agers—on the part of the first in giving for missionary purposes, and on the part l of the latter in asking, and each was the cause of th other. There is a deficit, according to tne report, of over $100,000. There are a hundred men in the church each of whom could pay the entire de- ficit without impairing his fortune. But it rested with the clergy in the last resart. There would be no permanent success un- til the parish ~lergy throughout the coun- try were aroused and interested and took the matter in hend. The discussion was continued by the Rev. Mr. Tempa of Vermont and the Bishop of Marquette. The last named suggested that a subscription be started during the meeting of the comvention, saying he wished to subscribe himself, and a friend had shown him three names on a card who wished to subscribe $1000- each. He helieved the whole deficit could be made up in this way and the impair- ment of the reserve be avoided. The Bishop of Pennsylvania, who was a personal friend of the late Dr. Langford and .a missionary worker, spoke of a plan to raise money. He said_he spoke from experience, and advocated an apportion- | ment plan to obviate deficiencies in the treasury. REV. DR. GREER MAKES AN EARNEST PROTEST The Rev. Dr. Greer of New York fol- , and said he w.shed to protest against the statement that had been made several times at the meeting of this Board of Missions that there were 4700 Christian parishes in connection with the church in ihe United States which contribute noth- ing and have contributed nothing during the last year toward the missionary work of the church. Continuing he said: There is not 2 Christian parish anywhere in the count: large or small, that is not doing missionary work. If they were going to raise 31,000,000 let them give encouragement and rec- ognition of their work throughout the whole church. Let them say to the struggling little parishes: _“‘You are doing missionary work, and splendid work at that, aecording to your means. They might be doing it among the poor and ignorant of their own little strug- gling parishes, but it was good work and should be.ebmmended and encouraged instead of being slurred by such remarks as had been heard on the floor. Dr. Greer continued in this _strain, speaking forcibly and eloquently and evoking applavse, notwithstanding the rule against such manifestations of ap- The Rev. Dr. Spalding of Alabama fol- lowed. He simply wisied to emphasize the last thought of the Bishop of Pennsyl- vania. In part he said: T wish to advocate this measure because it is going to bring home to the heart of each in- dividual of the church the question of the spreading of the Gospel throughout the world. It seems to me that thought and consideration enough has not been given to the small sums which are the fruit of self-denial of conse crated persons. The large rivers are made up of little drops of water. And somehow or another we fail to touch the common life of our congregations. I sometimes do a little mathematical figuring on this subject. Now I understand, if I caught the figures correctly, there are 700,000 communi cents in this church and the Board of M sions had to expend about §700,000. Now, sup. pose that of these 700,000 communicants each communicant was to lay aside one penny a day for the work days of the year. We would have just three times the amount of money that has been appropriated during the past year. A man giving up one cigar a week (applause) would make some appropriation and a very considerable one toward the accumula- tion of this fund. Now I think the attention of the board should be directed to every baptized person in the hole church, because that baptism conse- crates a man to be a missionary to Jesus Christ, It heing close to the hour of adjourn- ment the Bishop of Maryland made a mo- tion to refer the consideration of the re; olution introduced by the Bishop of Mon- tana to the committee of fifteen appointed to consider the resolution offered by Bish- op Satterlee. The motion was adopted and the committee was directed to re- port at the next session. An adjournment was then taken by the Board of Missions until Thursday even- ing, October 10. On Tuesday eyening next the Board of Missions will hold a mass-meeting in Me- chanies’ Pavilion. SCHOOL BOARD EMPLOYE QUARRELS WITH ATTORNEY Assistant Secretary Berliner Hurls an Ink Bottle at Frank Powers, but Misses Him. There was an altercation yesterday be- tween Frank Powers, an attorney, and Assistant Secretary Berliner of the Board of Education. The trouble occurred in the outer offics of the board and began when Pewers took Berliner to task for not giving his clerk certain information from the records covering teachers’ claims for 1% Berliner retorted that he had given the data on Thursday, which asser- tion Powers denied. Berliner declared that either Powers or his clerk lied, whereupon the attorney shot out his fist toward the secretary’s nose. Berliner ducked cleverly, and grabbing up an_ink bottle hurled at his antagonist. Miss Humphreys, private secretary to Presi- dent Kincaid tered the office just then and the bottle grazed her face. The ink was spattered over her ciothes and on the walls, Powers asserts that some time ago Ber- liner wanted ‘o charge him $10 for a list of the claims. Berliner says the list is his private property, 2nd not_a public record. He also says Powers offered him $ for it, but he refused to accept the money. B SCHOOL BOARD TRANSACTS USUAL ROUTINE BUSINESS Two Teachers Taken From Eligible List to Fill Vacancies Caused by Resignations. Notwithstanding that the charter spe- cifically provides that ali contracts for supplies furnished to the city snall be awarded to the lowest bidder, the Board of Education vesterday accepted the bid of a certain firm for fourteen typewriters at $70 each. The lowest bid was 75 and the next $65. The board explains its ac- tion by claiming that a particular kind of typewriter is desired. The board ratified President Kincaid's appointment of Dr. Lois Nelson and Dr. Henry Gibbons to examine all applicants for the teachers’ eligible list. Miss Mollle McLeran, on the eligible list, was assigned to the Irving Scott School, and Miss Lois Angeline Peckham, also on the list, was assigned to the Han- cock School. Resignations were accepted from Har- riet A. Spalding, Peabody School, and from Miss H. Valerie Brennan, Horace Mann Evening School. —_——————— Funds for the McKinley Monument.

I found When the new general secretary came that 1 was possessed of information which I other- Wise could not have received, and I have been therefore able, I feel, in a measure to aid him to the extent of my ability in the arduous work in which he is engaged. Now, just one word. 1 am to talk about the financial condition. It is admirable: the financial condition could not be better—in one Pparticular, and that is this: All our money is as safe, 1 believe, as it is possible for money to be It is watched and guarded with the #reatest of care, You have a beard of man- agers who on every meeting day have the re- POrts of the treasurer audited by a specially appointed committee, who have a specially em- pioyed person for the purpose. TELLS OF GENEROSITY " OF J. PIERPONT MORGAN Again, T wish to say to you that this soclety Dossesses, without doubt, one of the most mag- rificent church mission’ houses in the world, and that church mission house—rhade pessible very largely by the generosity and the far- seeing ability, not only of the Rev. Dr. Lang- ford, but by one of the gentlemen on the fioor of this house (J. P. Morgan)—now enables the scciety to get accommiodations which otherwise it would have to pay possibly §25,000 for every year: enabies the soclety to give the Womas Auxiliary all their accommodations without cost. That building stands on the balance sheet as Wworth over $00,000. That is something we should be very proud of, and not one dallar of any missionary money ever went into that house. (Applause) I see that I am heard. I want to emphasize this fact for one reason: The other day a friend of mine was coming up through the streets of New York in one of the cable cars, and as they approached the mission house a clergyman who was showing a gen- tleman around the city said: ‘There is the® church mission house built by money contributed for missionary purpases for the sake of giving these secretaries and veople in New York palatial quarters.’” Most unfortunately that was not taken up just then and there, but I made it the sub- Ject of a short tract which I issued and had published with regard to this matter. I wish, in presenting the financial condition, that we' should all understand the émphasis which should be put upon this great building, free from debt and contributed for the uses of the society as its headquarters. It is an ob- Ject lesson day and night as one goes up and down in the city of New York, Then again I want to call your attention to the safeguards which are thrown around the business of the office. 1 have had some ex- perience in the conduct of affairs in an office; I knew something about it. 1 have never heen in an office where the business was condueted more strictly on business principles. The clerks are prompt, they are well officered: the assist- ant treasurer is a man of great ability, a man whom you ought to have and must have every corfidence jn. In addition to that, nominated by me to the board of managers and elected by them after I make that nomination, he is under bonds. FUNDS OF THE BOARD ARE CAREFULLY GUARDED One change 1 found necessary when I went to the treasurer's department was in connec- tion With the drawing of checks. The rule was interpreted to have the stubs of the check: book and the check signed with one signature, 1 changed that so there should be two signa. tures. 1 do not care so much about stubs, yet the two signatures are necessary to draw money. Those two signatures are either the general secretary’s or an associate on one side and the treasurer or the assistant treasurer on_the other. When we came here—I mention these things because I am to talk about financlal conditions —I asked the board to allow me to take the assistant treasurer here, as I thought he would be of use; and if I brought him I was to have the privilege of naming an assistant secratary to the treasurer, an acting assistant treasurer who could take charge of matters while we were away. About the signatures, I fixed it in this way: The checks were signed by the assistant treasurer and the assoclate separ- ately, and all drawn to the order of the Rev. Robert Kimber, the acting assistant treasurer. As far as we could we have safeguarded the money. T reasurer has nothing to do with the trust funds; they are in the charge of the trust fund committee, and most careful are their operations. Ome of the largest trust com- panies in the city of New York is its assoclate; and every month these matters are reported through the able chairman of the trust fund committee, who is not with us at this time, and who always reports in comnection there- with. This is about as much as T care to say at this late hour regarding the financial condi- tion. The outlook has been explained to you. Let me in closing say one word about the re- serve. No business can be properly con- ducted without a reserve: but no reserve is worth anything If it can't be used when a time of emergency requires; and if we had not had this reserve this vear this society would be in debt. When 1 became treasurer I found the society a borrower of money—a good barrower, no bet- ter in the world. It had security behind it in its investments which were loose through its trust funds, which gave it a proper standing as a borrower. But I said: *This must stop; we must net borrow money if we can help it,” glad as I would have been as a banker to have loaned the society mon: SAYS RESERVE FUND . MUST BE INCREASED 1 found some money in the reserve. I sue- ceeded through unexpected legacies and other means in getting other money. That reserve has been almost depleted. Thers was not a hundred thousand dollars’ defieiency this year; it was really a little less than eighty thousand dollars, because last year we were twenty-two thousand dollars out, and this year out a hun- dred and two thousand dollars, ineluding the twenty-two thousand dollars of last year. That reserve, gentlemen, has got to be put back. That is the financial condition. If that Teserve is put back and we can feel that it is there we can go ahead and not take from a missionary, who may have five hundred dol- lars’ salary, thirty-seven dollars and fitey cents this year. Is that right? Is that right? 1 epeak to men who have influence in their dio- ceses. 1 beg them to help me make up that reserve. I want to make up that reserve. 1 am ready to do my part, but I want some help. I do not often stand as a pleader for money, but I do now. I ask your help to make Up this reserve. I wish to say tp you gentlemen that as far as I am concerned and as long as I hold this office, which is one of the proudest positions I have reached, I want to say to you that I will do my duty 'as far as I can to guard this money, but I can't raise it, and I do not con- sider that the treasurer's office requires that he should do so. 1 have tried to lay this financlal condition plainly and distinctly before you. 1 said at the beginning it was fine: it is fine: it is some- thing that we ought to be very thankful for. But we want to stand where we ought to stand in this great church of ours, and if God will help us and give us his grace to do so, O, what ean we net accomplish! Were we not im’ pressed when our brother read these closing words:~ “Our own duty is to preach the gos- pel to all nations, whether they will hear, or whether they will' forbear." Their conversion is in God's hands, and not in ours; but we are responsible for their evan- gelization. The gospel must first be preached unto all nations, and then shall the Son of Man come.
