GARFIELD TO HIS CLASSMATES.
4 Speech That was Almost Fateful
in Its Tones.

From the New York World.
The brief speech addressed by Gen.
Garfield to his college classmates on the
eve of his inauguration takes upon itself
under the shadow Of this day, something
sad and almost fateful IN tone. 1t is
only Just to tie classmates OF the dead
president TO say that no account OF
their meeting was ever made pubic un-
til long after the crime Of July 2.
The meeting was held at Wormley's on
March s. and the president-elect made
this address to his friends after dinner:
Classmates: To me there is some-
thing exceedingly pathetic in this reun-

A Southern Baptist paper tells the

A Southern Baptist paper tells the
following story of church discipline:
IA colored brother settled in neigh
borhood to teach school and agreed
to take his pay in produce. After a
while the pastor OF the colored church
kindly offered to collect in the pro-
duce for the teacher. The offer was
accepted, and the preacher borrowed a
pair of oxen anda wagon from one of
the sisters of the church to carry out
his offer. Going around lie soon gath
cred in wagon load of stuff His
success was good, bat instead of de-
liverng the produce to the teacher and
the wagon and oxen to the sister, he
drove off to neighborlng town and
sold eyerything-wagon, oxen and
produce-puting the money in his
pockets and saying nothing about it In
due time he was before his church on a
charge of immoral conduct. The evil
dence was conclusive. and when it
was taken, before anything further
could be done, tie pastor rose and
struck up How firm 4 foundation, ye
saints of the Lord After singing the
hymn through, in a most sonorous
manner and with deep feeling,he spoke
very tenderly upon the duty and sweet
forgiveness, reminding his hearers that
the Lord Jes prayed for the forgive
ness of those who put him to death,
and said: IF Jesus could do that, it
was small thing for them to forgive
each other for stealing hog or any.
thing like that He then reminded the
sister whose oxen he had sold of the |
time when the Devil was
a roaring lion, going about seeking
whom he might devour somebody, had
her in his paws; and he came along
and shot him with gospel bullets and
made him turn her loose.
The congregation was deeply NOV
ed, the teacher and sister with the rest.
The pastor then proposed to hold
torgiving meeting, and said; ''Now
Is as many OF you as is willing to for
give everybody and live together in
come and give your pastor
he hand while We sing When l can
cad my title clear The hymn was
sung with will, and amidst sobs and
shouts they all except those too much
teacher and sister too, gave
,ave him the hand. Thus ended the
natter, and the pastor, forgiven, went
lis way, to shoot the devil with more
gospel bullets; but he kcptthe money"
The lesson is plain. Religion is good
tut not without honesty. /

The coal miners at Rich Hill, Mo-,
who work a. shaft mining, are on a
strike for cents per bushel. They
were getting 3 1-e cents. Everything
is quiet, and no violent demonstrations
on the part of the strikers are expect
ed. Sufficient coal is being obtained
by stripping to load all the cars obtain
able, and as this species of mining
is carried on without skilled labor it is

and the General Public.
THE KING F0RTuNE-M maker,
Anew Process Preserving all
Rm vi Perishabe Articles, Animal and
Vegetable, from Fermentation
- and Putrefacton, Retaining
~ ~ ~ their odor and Flavor

FRUITS msy be permitted to ripenfn their
native climate, and can be transported to any
part Of the world.
The juice expressed from fruits can be held
for an indefinite period without fermentation
hence the great value Of this process for produc-
ing temperance beverage. Cider can be held
perfectly sweet for any length OF time
VEGETABLES can be kept for an in
definite period in their natural condition, re-
taining their odor and flavor, treated in their
original packages, ut q small expense. All
grains, -four, meal, ETC., are held in their normal
condition.
BUTTER, after being treated by this pro-
cess, will not become rancid.
Dead human bodies, treated before decompo-
sition sets in, can be held in natural condition
for weeks, without puncturing the skin or NIT
tilating the body in any way. Hence tho great
value Of Ozone to undertakers.
There is no change in the slightest particular
in the appearance Of any article thus preserved,
and no trace Of any foreign or unnatural odor
or taste.
The process is so simple that child can op-
crate it as well and Us successfully a. q man.
There is no expensive apparatus or machinery
required.
A room filed with different articles, such az
eggs meat, fish, etc., can be treated at one time,
without additional trouble or expense.
E1ln fact, there Is nothing that Ozone will
not preserve. Think Of every thing you can
that is liable to sour, decay, or spoil, and then
remember that VIC guarantee that Ozone will
preserve it in exactly the condition you want it
for any length Of time. II sou will remember
this it will save asking questions as to whether
Ozone will preserve this OF that article-it will
preserve any thing and every thing you esn
think Of.
There is not township in tho United States
in which live man cannot make any amount Of
money, from 1000 to $4,000 q year, that he
pleases. We desire to get live man interested
in each county in the United States, In whose
hands We can place this Preservative, and
through him secure the business which every
county ought to produce.
