CONSUMPTION.

It is said that $4,000 people die an
nually in the United States alone from
this disease. In some sections of the
country one death in every three is
from Consumption. This can be, and
should be avoided; our people. are too
careless about an ordinary cough or
cold. and other symptoms of throat
aud lung affections that lead to this
disease. You should arrest it while
it IS in the germ. Two or three doses
of DIR. Bosanko's Cough and Lueg
Syrup will relieve an ordinary cough
or cold. 1t does not dry up cough
like many preparations on the market
aud leave the disease behind it, but
acts directly ON the throat and bron-
chial tubes, removing all the phlegm
and morbid matter that accumulates
in the throat and lungs. 1t allays all
irritation, aud renders the voice clear
aud distinct. Sold by f. A. Baker

INDIAN EDUCATION.
Interesting Meeting Upon the Subject Mt
the Fourth Presbyterian Church.

meeting was held yesterday afternoon, at
3 O'clock in the basement of the Fourth Pres,
byJcrian church to listen to remarks made
and papers read on the subject of Indian train
ing and education. The audience was COM
posed of ladies and gentlemen interested in
the welfare of the Indian.
Miss Cooke of the Indian bureau, read n
very interesting paper upon the subject, 1t
being full, complete, and satisfactory report
of the Indian training school system. She
said that the progress made by these children
is something wonderful, taking into considera-
tion their previous lives and the few chances
| Tor Improvement in any branch Of civiliza-
tion.
Miss Robertson, of the Crock nation, gave u
brief but highly interesting history of the
Creek Indians, from their original home from
which they were mercilcssly driven by the
whites to the present time. This particular
tribe has suffered everything from the whites,
but has ut last gained footing in the Indian
territory, and the members are trying hard to
do right, and follow, as near US they can the
road of the white NATURALIZATION. This
lady, whose family have for years lived among
the Indians of the Creek nation, told her eX
pcricnce in very affecting manner.
Miss Fletcher, of Boston, u member of the
NI'iNNN ''AubNS NbilhbluBlCul uNIcUu' u luhg
who has given the Indian subject much study,
as well ns having had large experience
among them, made few sensible and forci-
bic remarks OH the subject under considera-
tion. She traced the Indian from the earliest
