POISON

In the blood is apt to show itself in the Spring,
and nature should by all means be assisted in
throwing it of. Swift's Specific does this
effectively. 1t is a purely vegetable, nom
poisonous remedy, which helps nature to force
all the poison or faint out through the pores
of the skin.
Mr.. Robert A. Easley. OF Dickson, Tenn,
writes, under date March 10, 1884: II had
chills and fever, followed by rheumatism, for
three years, so that was not able to attend
to my business; had tried almost every kind
of medicine and found no relief. A friend
recommended Swift's Specific. 1 tried one
bottle and my health began to improve. l
continued until had taken six bottles, and
1t has set me on my feet, as sound and well as
ever. recommend it to all similarly afflicted"
Letters from twenty three (23J of the lead
ing retail druggists OF Atlanta say, under
date March "A, 1884: eve sell more Of Swift's
Specific than any other one remedy, and three
to ten times as much as any other blood medi-
cine. We sell it to all classes, and many of
the best families use it as a general health
tonic"

We have no particular objections to

advisable to nominate man employed

Memorial to Bishop Kemper.


1t has been thought best in order
that the subject may be thoroughly
understood by the people of Wiscon-
sin, to lay before them short history
Of Kemper Hall and of the help now
needed in order to make its work per-
manent.
It was the dearest wish of Bishop
Kemper to build up in Wisconsin a
school for girls to give them the high
est type of literary training, together
with that education of character, NOR
al and religious, which We all know to
be needed to make the perfect Christian
women. At the time the Bishop was
called to rest from his labors this prop
erty at Kenosha had been purchased
and partly paid for, and his successor
determined to make of it memorial
to the Bishop, and as he belonged
almost equally to the whole northwest
the school was put into the hands of
trustees, in order that the other states
might feel in it an interest and right.
In order to put the property into prop
er condition, finish the chapel, build
necessary school rooms, etc., the sum
of SIS, 1000 was borrowed, the school
was taken by the Rev. Dr. Everhart
and opened with every prospect of
success. Before this prospect become
certainty DR.. Everhart gave it up
and went to more southern climate
and it became necessary to make new
arrangements. The trustees invited
the aid of the sisters of St. Mary, an
order Of women of the Protestant
Episcopal church in America who
have given up their lives to working,
not for money but for Christ's sake,
wherever work is to be done. They
came, and have made the school per-
feet success !; it is full of scholars of
all ages and from all churches. There
is but one verdict; it is school good
in it's mental training, good in its
church work, good in helping to form
pure wives and mothers for the future
NOW Tor the part we must take. Shall
We turn from our state this school
wherein our daughters can obtain a
liberal education at small cost and near
their homes, or shall We keep it? In
order to do this the debt must be paid,
and at once, The income will pay all
expenses and make all repairs can it
be used for these purposes, but not if
it must be paid out for interest. Now
We call on the churchmen of Wiscon-
sin, on all who knew Rishop Kemper,
on all in our church or out of it, who
love Wisconsin and desire to keep
within her Borders so good work, to
aid us in paying this debt. Let us
not lay down work, we can and
ought to carry on ourselves.
The school courts inquiry and any
questions will be gladly answered by
Bishop Wells, Milwaukee, or Mrs.
Henry Kimball, Kenosha, Wis.

he will be returned to the receiving ship
Colorado, by the first opportunity from St.

his place. The stay at St. Johns will be
limited to the time actually required for
slight repairs, taking on board so tons of
coal and other supplies. The Thetis will
then sail Immediately for Drisco. Lieut..

which he will most likely overtake before

CASE OF MANSLAUGHTER.
A Boston steamer Brings in a Dying
Passenger.

BosTos. NAV 10.
What is believed will prove a case of man.
slaughter was brought to light last night by
the death of Michael Reddy, a steerage pas
senger from the steamer Cephalonia, at the
city hospital here. The Cephalonia arrived
here early Sunday morning, and Reddy was
hurried ashore on a stretcher and taken to
the hospital The physicians there believe
his death to have been the result of heavy
blows about the head. probably inflicted in a
fight. steward, VIM. Smith, was arrested
this morning and taken before the United
States commissioner, who declined jurisdic-
ton. Smith was locked up by the East Bos-
ton police. and the British minister appealed
to. He will probably order his detention
pending the autopsy, to be held this after
noon.
Assistant Steward Smith. under arrest
states in connection with the death of Michael
Reddy that while below. in Boston harbor
Saturday evening. he had occasion to go TO
the apartment of Reddy, and discovered that
the latter had vomited considerably. He
requested him to go up on deck when he was
again taken sick.
Smith says he stepped and fell, striking
upon his head. He was apparently uncon-
scious, and the stew ard brought him upon the
deck, where he shortly revived
Smith also says that Reddy was one of the
first to respond to the muster call for inspec-
ton by the port officers. Upon the Cephal
onia's reaching the dock, however, Reddy's
conditio was such that he had to be taken to
the hospital None of the officers of the ship
seem to be cognizant of any of these occur
rences. yet it known that Reddy's removal
was accomplished with great secrecy, and at
the expense of the Cunard Co. There were
four police officers detailed at the wharf yes
terday, but no information was impaired to
them of the affair.
