Wife, and the Warning It Conveys to
Others.
Probably the saddest, most unhappy man in
New York city to-day is Mr.. g. Y. Remington, who
resides on East 35th street. A few weeks ago he
had q beautiful wife and happy home; now his
ears panied by the cries Of his metherless chill
dren. Mrs. Remington passed through the summer
In good health and spirits, but the first change in
the weather chilled her, caused her to cough,
quickened her pulse and brought on q general feel
ing Of WEAKNESS. Mr.. Remington thought 1t was
only cold and SO neglected it.
"Oh Why didn't do something before 1t was
too late 81 he exclaimed bitterly II knew she was
weakened by the heat Of the summer, all the pores
of the skin were open and she was an easy victim
to disease but might have saved her IL had only
assisted Nature in time, instead of waiting, and
then sending for the doctor when it too late"
Nearly every man or woman who has passed
through the summer months is specially liable to
the attack of this same demon, Pneumonia, which
comes so quickly, so unexpectedly, and often ends
SO fatally. Immediate assistance to nature of a
strong stimulant is the only way by which it be
avoided and il is for this very purpose that Dufys
Pure Malt Whiskey has achieved such a national
reputation and become so popular. The danger
GUS, often fatal, diseases which attack the system
when it is specially weak can be quickly thrown off
by this pure stimulating whiskey. The highest
testimony of the leading physicians OF the land
amplyT prove this, and the thousands who have
been saved from untimely graves also attest it.
Great care should be exercised to secure only the
genuine it is the only preparation the market
which has the power to cure and which does SO in
variably. OH eaw

THE AMERICAN BOARD.

THE AMERICAN Board.
Special Papers From tho Prudential
Communicable. Grimth's Remarks
Cause a Sensation.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-The principal busi-
ness before the American Board of Commits
sioners of Foreign Missions to-day was the
reading of special papers from the prudential
committee. The place occupied in the mis-
sionary work by prayer was the subject of
brief paper presented by DR.. Alden. DR..
Tyler, recently returned missionary from
southeastern Africa, spoke of his work among
the Zulus. "The Evangelization of Africa"
was the subject of paper read by Secretary
Smith. "Africa is" he said, Zone of the
greatest jewels which we can win" He
spoke of the great opportunity that Africa
afforded as field for missionary work.
Though the work appeared to be well adj
vanced, in reality it was only in Its initial
stages.
It was decided that no change in the church
in Japan is at present advisable. The COM
mittee on the necessity for change in the
relations between the board and the Congre-
gational church, reported that their inquiries
| had revealed a very vague, mixed and indif-
| ferent state of feeling on the subject, and the
time has evidently not arrived for any
change. The only recommendation made is
that the president and vice president of the
board be made ex-effcio members of the
prudential committee. The report was &C.
cepted, but the committee was continued for
| another year. During the debate on contin-
uance Rev. DR.. Griffith, of Boston, accused
the board of discriminating against certain
candidates In its system of secret examina-
tions asking them questions to which
it was Impossible to frame an
swers even in a mans own heart. The
unsuccessful candidate was then branded az
q hereto. The course of the board chilled
enthusiasm. A change was needed. These
remarks caused a sensation and DR.. Griffith
was greatly applauded. DR.. w. w. Meredith
also declared that the board should be so
constituted as to perfectly represent the mis-
sion work of the Congregational church. BE
complained of being ignored by the board
and asserted that this feeling was general
among the churches.
Business was suspended in order to receive
delegation from the Methodist Missionary
society and then the afternoon session was

The Negro Question Postponed to Fri.
day at i O'Clock - A Report By the
Committee ON Christian Unity-The
Word "Earth uake,s Added to the
Appeals IN tho Litany.
NEW YORK, OCT. 16.-The committee to
which was referred the memorial to aged and
disabled clergy reported to the house of
deputies of the general Episcopal convention
to-day that the fund for the relief of widows
and orphans of deceased clergy and aged and
infrm should be commended to the atten-
ton of the church, but hoped that the aged
clergy would be aided apart, and that the
original fund might be confined to widows
and orphans and in6rm clergy. Majority and
minority reports on the negro question were
made and finally the whole matter postponed
till Friday next at II o'clock.
An important report was presented by the
committee on Christian unity. The commit
tee among other things reported the probs-
bilfty of the acceptance of the basis for Chris
tian unity as propounded by the house of
bishops by several of the organized Christian
bodies of the country, and asked that their
powers be SO enlarged go as to permit them
to enter into brothsrly conference with all
committees or commissions appointed to con-
fer with them for the purpose Of negotiating
the terms of restoration to the unity of the
faith of all those who profess and call them
selves Christians on such basis. The house
then went into committee of the whole to
consider the question of liturgical revision.
The first question debated upon was the
motion to insert in the morning and evening
prayer after the response "And our mouth
shall show forth Thy praise" the versicle and
response 80 God make speed to save us;
Lord make haste to help u.s." The addition
had already been approved by the house of
bishops and the question was one of concur
cnrrence. Nessrs. Huntington, Brooks. Price
and Seth Low opposed the change and it was
voted down. The next proposed alteration,
commencing go Lord save the State" was
taken up. There was much opposition to the
term "State' as being ambiguous. After an
out by non concurrence with the upper house.
The committee then rose and reported favor
able progress.
Recess.
In the afternoon session, after the rejec-
ton of several amendments, DR.. Hutington's
motion that the word Earthquake" be added
to the appeals in the ntany was carried in
concurrence with the house OF bishops. The
addition of certain prayers for use during the
rogation was also concurred in. The resolu
ton that Psalm 50 be replaced by Psalm "a
in the service for Good Friday was concurred
in and at pm. the delegates adjourned IN
til tomorrow morning.
The house Of bishops this afternoon made
the report on csnons the order for tomorrow.
The tentative use of the hymnal for the en-
suing three years was non-concurred in. Ad-
