THE LATE John A. GROVE.


Shelbina (AIO.) Democrat, May 29th.
We, the undersigned, appointed by the
Superintendent of the Presbyterian Sab
bath School of Shelbina, Mo-, to draft a
tribute of respect to the memory of the
late John \. Grove, who died at his
mothers home in st. Clairsville, Ohio,
May %, 1889, submit the following:
WHEREAS, God, in His good and all
wise Providence, has recently removed
from our Sabbath school our beloved
brother, who was one of our faithful
scholars and teachers, and earnest work
erS in the Masters vineyard, therefore,
ReSOIced, l. That the Sabbath school
has lost one of its faithful and upright
members.
2 That this city in which he spent the
last year of his life, has lost true friend,
an honest man, lover of his kind, and
prominent example of morality and
Christian integrity.
3. That we bow with humble submis-
sion to this dispenSatiOn of an all-wiSe
and Over-ruling Providence, and that we
will endeavor to initiate his pious conse-
Grated life and meet him on the eternal
shore.
i. That we tender to his aged mother
and to each member of the bereaved
family our sympathy in their sore affiic-
tion, and that a copy of these resolutions
be sent to them, and also to the city
papers for publication.

THE appalling disaster at Johnsto

THE appalling disaster at Johnstown
has occupied public attention since sat
urday, TO the exclusion of almost every
thing else. Usually the first reports
from such disasters are exaggerated,
and it was hoped on Saturday that such
was the case in this instance; but the
half had not been told. Reports con-
tinued to grow steadily worse, until the
estimated mortality had swelled from
l.500 to 5000 There is absolutely no
silver lining to the cloud.
Generous people everywhere, from
ocean to ocean, are responding to the
urgent need for help. The great heart
of the people is touched, as it has not
been during this generation.
The loss of property, it is thought, viii

The work of cleaning up will require
the greater part Of the summer. 1t viii
be a fortunate circumstance if serious
sickness does not follow.

THE LATEST.

FIFTEEN THOUSAND THE AWFUL TOTAL.
The Pittsburg Dispatch, of Wednesday,
says: The latest estimate of the number
of bodies buried beneath the ruins at the
stone bridge is by Superintendent Patton,
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Mr..
Patton says he thinks at the least calcu-
lation there are from 5000 to 10000
human beings and 1900 dumb animals
sleeping in the smoldering debris. These
figures, added to the 5000 bodies already
recovered and those not yet found, would
bring the awful total upto at least 15,0G0

Down at Cincinnati a lawyer, exam
ing man summoned for service on a
jury being empaneled to try capital
case, asked him how many children he
had. Naturally, the inquiry was resent
ed as impertinent; but the learned Court
compelled him to answer the question.
Next the able barristerS will want to
know whether people have any eorns on
their toes.

DIsARMING AN UNSEEN FOE.


This was sometime a paradox" as
Hamlet says Since, however, the people
of America and other lands have been en-
abled to pit HOstetter's Stomach BitterS
against the unseen foe, malaria, it is no
longer a paradox, but an easy possibility.
Wherever malaria evolves its misty We
nom to poison the air, and decaying un-
wholesome vegetation impregnates the
water, there, in the very stronghold of
miasma, is the auxiliary potent to disarm
the foe and assure efficient protection.
Fever and ague, bilious remittent, dumb.

naciovsly tpey have fastened their clutch
on the system, are first forced to relax
their grasp and eventually to abandon it
altogether. But it is its preventive force
that should chiefly recommend the Bit

ed localities. for it is certain buckler of
