THE Illinois house of representatives
took vote the other day on the ques-
ton of removing Speaker Haines. There
were SO yeas to 50 nays. AS he was
saved by only four votes Haines became
exceedingly indignant and made serious
charges against his opponents of
being corrupt in their legislative
action. He declared that over 20 men,
bers had been bribed or offered them
selves for sale. An investigating COM
mittee was the result and that body is
now at work holding secret sessions.
Enough has leaked out to show that
Haines has some ground for his charges.
The Illinois legislature has been, since
it's session began in January, the most
turbulent and ''torn up deliberative
body ever known in this country.

THE so called "faith cure received
severe shock in a Pennsylvania city
last week. A man who was supposed
to be in the last stages of consumption,
and utterly unable to move about, es-
saycd the faith cure'' and to the sur
prise of every one was able to 60 around
the next day and labor with others, cit
ing his case AS an instance of the eff
cacy of prayer and urging others to
follow his example. His apparent re-
storation created quite a sensation,
but the second day thereafter he died.
Instead of being cured by prayer it
seemed to have so wrought him up with
excitement as to give him supernatural
strength for little time and then the
reaction killed him at once.

First Presbyterian Church, in brief and
impressive manner, low, soft music being
played on the organ the while. At the
conclusion Of the ceremony DR.. and Mrs,
Baird received the congratulations ol
friends in the church pariors until it was
time TO drive to the lilo train on the Pan
handle. Where they went, or how long
they are to be gone is mystery. On
