A New Method Of Treating Disease.
HOSPITAL REMEDIES.

What are they? There is new de-
parture in the treatment OF disease. 1t
consists in the collection of the specifics
used by noted specialists of Europe and
America, and bringing them within the
reach of all. For instance the treatment
pursued by special physicians who treat
Indigestion, stomach and liver troubles
only, was obtained and prepared. The
treatment ofother physicians, celebrated
for curing catarrh was procured, and so
on till these incompatible cures now in
cude disease of the lungs, kidneys, female
weakness, rheumatism and nervous Gebil-
ity.
This new method of zone remedy for
one disease" must appeal to the common
sense of all sufferers, many of whom have
experienced the i'll effects, and thorough
ly realize the absurnity of the claims of
Patent Medicines which are guaranteed
to cure every i'll out of single bottle,
and the use of which, as stati tics prove,
has ruined more stomachs than alcohol.
A circular describing these new remedies
is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay
postage by Hospital Remedy Company
Toronto, Canada, sole proprietors. Re-
liable agents wanted.

he, with the nearest approach to cohe-

He strobe out to mount his horse,

that his heavy spurs struck the naked
legs of Trinidad Jose, one of the mozos
accompanying the del Prados, and caused
that worthy servant to vince with pain.
''Old fraud old rufian' murmured
Trinidad Jose, looking after him indig-

"Well, now your sign is all nicely
painted and put up, isn't it," said Gen.
del Prado conciliatingly to Antonio Gas

has been heard a good deal before, and

riding beside the carriage. The story
prevails chiefly among the poor Indian
population of charcoal burners on the
way to the desolate Barranca Of Cimar-

appears in that gorge under the form of
serpent and brings bad luck to who
ever sets eyes upon him.

SOUTHERN METHODISTS.
Sixth Days Proceedings of Their Con-
ference in the City Of st. Louis.
Charge Of Discipline Urged-Catechism Dis
cussed- Unfermented Wine Recon-
mended for Sacrament.


ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 1.-THE general
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, entered upon its second
week to-day. After religious exercises
F. NJ. Bristol of Chicago, Ex-Governor
Robert E. Pattison of Philadelphia, fla
ternal delegates from the NorthefH
church, and DR.. Slime, from the Metho-
dist church of Canada, were introduced
to the conference.
The report of the committee on re-
visals recommended various changes be
made in the discipline for the benefit OF
the Spanish speaking Methodist OF
Mexico.
The committee on publishing interests
made report which caused long and
animated discussion. 1t recommended
that premium be offered for a
''series of catechisms' for use 10 the
church. This was opposed by one defe5
gate as being in the nature of a Ipttery.
Another opposed it because he thought
the church had enough Gate
chisms now. Secretary Herri-
son said he had 40 cateohisRsa in
his library, and the church would
not be able to improve them by offerinE Q
500 prize for the most difficult book in the
world. He said the college of bishoPs
had been instructed four years sg64
prepare q series of graded oatechisms,
but had not doIe so. He did not know
why.
Bishop Keener explained why he said
bishops set to work to prepare cate
chism, but when they got to a certain
point they came to a standstilI and could
proceed no farther. They discovered
they could not write cateohism, so they
took one that had already been written
By an Englishman and put it in the coufss
of study.
That part of the report offering prize,
however, was adopted.
The committee on temperance reported
in favor of unfermented wine for saora-
ment whenever it was practicable, and
approved the resolutions introduced
last week by Messrs. East, Wall and
Haynes, opposing all laws licensing or
permitting the manufacturing or sale of
Intoxicating liquors as a beverage be-
cause such laws provide for the continu-
ance of a traffic and furnish no protec-
ton against is ravages; that the proper
attitude of Christians toward the drink
traffic should be uncompromising OPP
position, and that voluntary total
abstinence is the sole and true ground of
personal temperance, and complete legal
prohibition of the traffic is the duty of.
the government. The report went to-
the calender and will no doubt cause
much debate when it comes up for con-
sheraton.
The remainder of the session was de-
voted to routine matter.

THE MACIkEY STRIKE.
An Attempt to Compromise Proves
Futile.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, January At is
thought by those in position to know
that the strike on the Mackey system OF
railways, including the Evansville and
Terre Haute, Evansville and Indian
apolis Peoria, Decatur and Evansville,
and Louisville and St. Louis railways,
will terminate before Monday me rn.
ing. President Mackey received a
telegram from Terre Haute this even
ing, from the committee of strikers, ask
ing if. he would agree to conference
with them. He replied in the affirm
alive, and the committee came down to-
night, and is now in conference with
him. 1t is thought some conclusion will
be reached before morning.
The strike began Monday last, and is
not strictly Brotherhood affair, as had
been reported, but general uprising of
conductors. brakemen and switchmen
against G.. A. Hurd, Master of Trans-
portation of the Evansville and Terre
Haute and Evansville and indianapolis
lines. It is claimed the employees
in the late strikes are being singled out
and discharged by Hurd contrary to
agreement. The Louisville, Evansville
and st. Louis men returned to work to-
day. The losses involved by the strike
cannot be estimated because of the re-
fusal of the company to give any inform
alton for publication. Freight business
is still at q standstill.
LATER-The conference adjourned at l
O'Clock Sunday morning. Mackey re-
fused to accede to the strikers demands.
The situation is now the same as before
the conference.

NEW ORLEANS, January 4.-Captain
Jacob Gray, Department Com mander of
the g. A. R. for tie States of Louisiana
and Mississippi, has granted colored ex-
soldiers in his department permission to
organize posts of the G. A. r. Colonel
James Lewis, in an interview today,
said: "Fully ten years ago the colored
troops who fought on the Federal side
during the late war, concluded that they
ought to be represented in the associa-
tion Of G. A. R. To this end petition
was drawn up after the usual form and
forwarded to the Commander-in-C Chief OF
the G.. A. R.. who in turn referred it to
the Grand Encampment for considera-
ton and action. Previous to this, how
ever, the petition in question had been
submitted to the various Department
Commanders here, each of whom re-
jected it on some frivolous ground, one
of them being "expediency."
"Expediency," according to the defini-
ton of Colonel Lewis, meant color and
nothing else. The appeal of the colored
men met with vigorous opposition from
southern white posts, and the matter
was dropped. Colonel Lewis further
said: captain Gray's action in partici
pating in the obsequies .,zS Jefferson

as l understand, by way of retalis-

the colored ex-soldiers, granted our peo-
pie the right to organize post, which
we have DONE"

of Louisiana and Mississippi, in both of
which there are said to be about 80, 900
