inheriting a powerful digestion, are

OF food-becoming at length wretched
victims to dyspepsia, and die an early
and sudden death.
The following statements will give
an idea ofthe more characteristic symp-
toms Of dyspepsia and explain their
nature. Food if not digested- whether
from its quantity or its quality, or from
a weakened condition of the stomach
ferments and undergoes other chemical
changes, whereby gases and various
acids are developed.
These gases, if in the stomach, dis
tend it, impede its action, and press it
up against the lungs, hindering their
expansion. If the gases gather in the
intestines, they cause distress, and
often severe collie.
The acids irritate the nerves which
terminate in the digestive tract, giving
rise to a peculiar uneasiness, or, per-
haps, to positive pains. Moreover this
whole tract becomes more or less in
famed, the tendency of which is to
check the digestive secretions.
Ii the gastric juice is lessened, the
power to digest meat is lessened. If
the bile is diminished the power to di-
gest fat is equally diminished, and the
movement of the bowels is rendered
slow and constipating.
Ii the pancreate fluid is checked, the
starchy foods are so far left to ferment
and to irritate, instead of digesting and
nourishing.
Further, through that wonderful class
of nerves which bind all parts of the
system in mutual sympathy, disturb
ance at any point of the digestive tract
may give rise, especially in very sus-
ceptble persons, to severe and incom-
prehensible pains at the most remote
points, and even to violent spasms.
The brain, in particular, is exposed to
not only from aches, some
times dull, yet constant, sometimes
for briefer periods, yet excruci-
ating, but with depression that makes
the sufferer disagreeable to himself
and to others. - YOUTHS Communion.

MY MIRRORS TALE

I'm looking at myself tonight,
Upon my mirrors face.
1t is foolish thing to do,
And yet may find grace,
If, in my inmost heart, | know
/ search for faults this glass may show.
IT'S not lovely face see,
Not winning and not young;
1t shows the lines and traces of
A heart by anguish wrung.
A face DER which the storm-cloud past,
To leave it calm and clear at last.
The rosy bloom of early youth,
That once had rested there,
Has gone; few gray threads shine in
The darkness of my hair.
This tells me | have reached the stage
Where youth blends with maturer age.
/ wonder, rs gaze at it,
Noting each feature there,
How some, in loving tenderness,
Have dreamed to call it fair.
Yet lore can find a charm and grace,
To beautify the plainest face.
Image upon the truthful glass,
Showing myself so clear!
Tell me-have lOw'ring clouds of doubt
Left deathless traces there?
Are lines of cold and cynic pride
Seen on the face | stand beside!
Have lightning blasts of care and woe
Blackened the heart within,
And pictured in the dark-gray eyes
Glimpses of guilt and sin?
o, tell me nayl For have tried
To cast all wicked thoughts aside.
Much have I suffered; but those days,
/ trust, have purified
My soul; and driven from my heart
All foolish thoughts of pride.
Closely scan my mirrored face
To find upon it saving grace.
l care not for the partial lack
OF beauty that enthralls,
If on my face the glowing ighs
OF truth and culture falls
IF in my eyes the spark divine
OF love for all mankind will shine.
Twill not ask for radiant orbs.
If in my own | sec
The flash of true intelligence,
OF wit and repartee,
! only wish for eyes that glow
With pity for anothcr's woe.
I'll pass in calm indifference
Ger crimson fash and hue,
If health but glOws upon my cheeks,
If curves of lips are true,
And shadow forth a soul too pure
To speak false words framed to allure.
And thus I'll scan my mirrored face
Each day; and hope to find
Upon the tell-tale glass to see
A meek and gentle mind;
If, like veil of priceless lace,
There falls sweet peace upon my face.

CHURCH IN CAMP.
The hdVGltiStS Hold Their First Ser.
vices Last Evening.
A Large Attendance Upon the
Grounds-Eyerything Ready
for Success.

Owing to a mistake In the Battle Creel
Herald, the principal organ of the AID
ventists, announcing that the meeting
would begin on the 25th instead of tn,
Oath, many people desiring to attend the
opening did not arrive until yesterday,
Consequently they were constantly ar
irving and were busily engaged in pitch.
ing their tents and making preparations
for their stay upon the camp grounds.
1t was thought best by those in charge
to withdraw the appointments of the
1890 a. m and the 2:30 p. IN. services.
Those ON the grounds consequently bus.
led themselves in preparing the grounds
for their fortnight's %sojurn. No public
meeting was held until 6 p. m., when the
first meeting of the state conference took
| place. About twenty churches were rep
resented. The meeting was prsided oyer
by Elder Cudney and the usual commit
tees on nomination, resolutions and au-
ditory were appointed.
The first meeting of the Nebraska tract
society followed also, presided over by
Elder Cudney. The usual committees
were also appointed.
Then came regular evening service at
1880. Rev. Farnsworth preached the
sermon taking as his subject ''The fulfill
ment of Prophesy as Shown by History"
1t was presented in a veIy interesting
manner, the minister dwelling principally
upon the second and seventh chapters of
Daniel. The attendance at this service
was between 600 and 700 people.
INTERESTING PLACES.
The book tent is nicely arranged under
the supervision of II. p. Rem ane wife of
Fremont. The books and bibles are dis
played in a very attactive manner and
are worth about $4,000.
Several large tents were pitched yes
terday among which was a pavilion for
services for youth and children. These
will be conducted by Elder Hollenbuk
late of Iowa.
THE ARRIVALS.
Rev. e. W.. H~arnsworth of State Cen
ter Iowa, o. A. Oleson of Minnesota,
reached the grounds yesterday.
About 100 people came in from Iowa
yesterday and many from various parts
of Nebraska. Many people are also ex-
pected within a couple of days.
Two hundred tents are now pitched
and more will be raised to-day. 1t is
estimated that between 700 and 800
people are now on the ground and it is
thought the attendance next week will

THE LAWS MAJESTY.
Christian SpGCht Learns Something
Of Its Local Respect.
He Assaults Officer Donovan, and
Despite the Assistance of His
WOrkmen Is Taken
To Jail.

About 6 o'clock last evening, Officers
Donovan and Kurdish entered the city
Jail with Christian Specht, the proprietor
of the cornice works on Douglas, between
Eleventh and Twelfth, and GustaTe
Hone, n of Specht's employees, in Gus
tody. Both prisoners were submitted to
the conventional process of searching by
the iailor and. like common culprits, as.
signed a barred and grated cell. Mr..
| Specht's disordered appearance testified
that his march to the Jail had been all
but voluntary and Homes scalp was cut
and bruised.
The wealth and prominence of the
first mentioned prisoner Immediately
and called for its close and thorough in
vestigation. Officer Donovan the first
| witness and most active principle on the
side of the law gave a full statement of
the affair as follows:
About $50 o'clock last evening, a ne
gro named Jesse Price, passing Specht's
establishment was struck on the head by
a heavy piece of c%ornice, carelessly
thrown by some workmen
from the roof. The man
was severely hurt and required medical
services. Returning from thephysician's
office, Price was met by Officer Donovan
coming down Douglas street and cover
ing his beat. The promiscuous hurting
of building material from house-tops in
to the streets of late, has rendered that
little performance a nuisance and contin-
uing hls walk, Donovan dropped into
| Specht's place to demonstrate against the
disregard Of municipal proprietor there
demonstrated. Spech't, in a one Of
mild defiance asked the officer if he had
a warrant. "No. Donovan replied, ! have
come to make no arrests. " Then" ex-
claimed Specht, as no sprang from his
chair and seized the officer by the shoul,
. ders, ''you s---, get out ofhere'"
Donovan refused, and the angered cor
nice king proceeded to eject his visitor.
The tide of battle, however, was going in
Donovan's favor, and Specht called for
assistance, The cry was promptly an-

tel on Tuesday last, was held before
Judge Benelte yesterday afternoon.
The evidence adduced, showed that at
the time, about l p. M. of Tuesday,
when Manning was shown to his room,
hh was in n state of intoXication, being
almost unable to walk. About one hour
afterward Henderson, and Badger came
into the hotel and were shown to Man
ning's room by u bill boy. The defend
ants claim they went to the conductors
room for the purpose of taking care of The
valuables upon his person.
The bell boy, the principal witness for
tho state, testified that after showing
these two mon to Manning's room he
started to leave but was told to wait and
they would go down with him. He staid
in the room all the time they were there,
and saw them search his pockets, but
they found nothing in them, Manning all
this time being asleep. The complainant
himself, Hulett the clerk at the hotel,
and a man named Bogue also gave teGti-
mony tor the state.
The magistrate, after hearing the testi-
mony of the defense and the arguments
of the attorneys on either side, released
the prisoners, the evidence not being suf-
ficient to hold them to appear before the
