GIVES “GO.” Food That Carries One Along. It's nice to know of food that not only tastes delicious, but that puts the snap and go into one and supplies staying wer for the day. A woman says “I have taken enough but in later and wiser years I taken none, but have depended, ¢ health I now enjoy, on suitable <taining food, of which I keep on tested variety, plain but nour- ese my main dependence is Gray its, especially if 1 have before me & da f unusual effort either men- tal or physical.

Some time during the sermon he was stricken with apoplexy and died with- cut any indication of his death to those surrounding him. When the congregation rose to sing a hymn it was noticed that Downer did not move and his bowed head attracted attention. A friendly hand shook him, and then, without disturbing the wor- shipers, three men carried the corpse from the church. ——————— MAYBRICK WILL SOON BE RELEASED MRS, Prisoner Is in Better Health Now That Her Freedom Has Been Assured.

According to the narrative a thick cloud lay on the mountain, the smoke of it ascended to heaven. There was thunder and lightning and a voice like a trumpet. The mountain is also de- scribed as quaking. | Putting all these things together, Professor Gunkel, who is one of the most advanced of Berlin theologians, that Sinai was on purpose. Moses spent years Jgypt and knew of the existence of this volcano. + -+ | ies and won an international fame as a | soldier. An English correspondent of the London Times declared him the ris- | ing genius of the South. ond only s d bles he was chosen by the Democrats in Congress to draft an address to the people of Louisiana and the South, urging patience, endurance and an ap- peal to the returning sense of justice to cure wrongs. He took a masterful part in the debate, and a serious vari- | ance between Him and Senator Conk- ling was adjusted by Senator Bayard and others. The farmers of Georgia | thanked him for his efforts for agricul- | ture. THANKED BY A STA"l.'E. He aided Lamar in saving Missis- | sippi from political misrule, and was empowered by Governor Hampton to look after South Carolina’s interest, | having canvassed the State for its re- demption with Hampton, and after the j adjournment of Congress secured the removal of troops from Carolina. For this he received the historic dispatch, “South Carolina thanks you.” His life- | size portrait hangs in the State Capitol. | The ladies sent his little daughter, born |in Washington, a silver urn, with | Hampton's dispatch on it, and to Gen- |eral Gordon a superb silver service, each piece mounted with a gold pal- metto tree. As Governor his adminis- tration was faultless. The New. York Sun declared his first inaugural “worthy of Thomas Jefferson.” His last election as United States Senator was a marvelous political vietory. Un- opposed, until he antagonized the sub- treasury plan of the Farmers’ Alliance, which had four-fifths of the Legisla- ture in its favor, he was elected after the most exciting contest of the time. In the wild enthusiasm succeeding his victory he was borne by the multitude through the Capitol to the streets, placed on a caisson and drawn. about the city among shouts and rejoicing, while the whole State was ablaze with bonfires. General Gordon has been all his life a model of social worth and an ardent Christian worker. | arrangements were | is as | Office that she would | from | e volcano when Moses led | selected by | 1 the wilderness before he went to | PRAGERS PRAGERS PRAGERS PRAGERS 3 nave made big reductions. i values. inches wide; regular 2oc value 16¢ a yard—Swiss sertions to match; sells regularly | | i { { cambric edgings and insertions to 10 inches wide. $1.25 a yard.

OLNEY'S BOOM 15 LADNCHED State Committee Formally Candidacy Democratie of Massachusetts Proclaims His Al BOSTON, Jan. 9.—The Democratic State Committee to-day indorsed a movement in favor of having the na- tional convention nominate Richard Olney for President of the United States. Resolutions were adopted in- viting Democrats everywhere to work in support of such a movement. The resolutions were introduced by Congressman McNary, who classed Ol- ney as one of the “‘foremost Americans and foremost Democrats.” He thought that if the Democrats were to win this year they must carry the Eastern States, and said that the nomination of a man from New England would have the immense advantage to the Democrats of establishing a large East- ern area where the scales could be turned in favor of the Democratic nom- inee. —————— Boer Prisoners to Go to Natal.

GREAT FALLS, Mont., Jan. 9.—J. M. Reeves, accused of having headed the .alleged whitecapping party that visited the home of George Gould in the Highwood section on the night of December 30, was last evening given a preliminary hearing before Justice H. L. Descombés in Belt and bound over to the District Court. According to the testimony of George Gould and his brother John, they had knowledge of the coming of the party and when twenty-five mask- ed and armed men came to the house they were lying in wait for them. They halted the crowd and told them to go back; for answer the whitecap~ ping party fired a volley at the Goulds. The latter opened fire, shoot- ing two of the whitecappers and the latter fled. One of the wounded men is now in a Great Falls hospital and the other is in hiding in the Highwood section. ——— e Where the Purple Heather Blooms.

The newspapers in opposition to the Gov- ernment or unfriendly to the United States continue at intervals ‘to com- ment on the ‘‘contemptuous disregard of his Majesty's gift by the United States,” and find fault with the policy of conciliation toward “the Yankees, who mistake German courtesy for weakness.” WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—No excite- ment has been aroused in official cir- cles here by the attacks of the anti- American press in Germany regarding the statue of Frederick the Great. It is again pointed out that until the work of construction at the War Col- lege has progressed further it will be not only not expedient but dangerous for the statue to be erected. It is to be located mear the rhain building, and the contractors will not be responsible for-its safety while building is going on. There is a thorough understand- ing between the Washington and Ber- lin governments on the subject, and the officials here emphatically refuse to be | led into explanation of acts which they declare are known to Emperor William and all Germans who have taken the trouble to institute an intelligent in- Court to-day and continued until next Tuesday. —_———— “Truckstore” Law Is Invalid.
