The Forum for March.

In the Forum for March, Senator
Henry l.. Dawes writes a review of
the first year of President Harrison's
administration to show that the Re-
publican party is keeping its promises
to the people, and that the present ad-
ministration is in every way worthy
of the past history of the party. He
enters into detail to show what the
policy laid down by President Harri-
son is, and he pays his respects to the
criticisms of the Democratic press.
Prof. A. B. Hart, of Harvard, from a
non-partisan point of view, considers
the progress thus far made by civil.
service reform and the hindrances
that lie in the way of reformers.
Judge A. w. Tourgee reviews the
post-6ellitm amendments to the Con.

We have 10 chronicle very sad
death from said cause, that of Miss

months and thirteen days. Her suf-
ferings from Sunday evening, when
she was taken ill, until Tuesday were
intense. though borne with christian
fortitude and uncomplainingly until
death mercifully interposed and put an
end to her pain and agony. Though
so young she was fully prepared for
the great change, for the passage from
Time to Eternity. This assurance is
a great consolation to the bereaved
parents, brothers and sisters, they
can meet her beyond the dark riy-

al attention, Drs. Morgan and Zim-
norman had charge of the case and
gave her their constant and personal
attention until she died ; their care
was unceasing and unremitting both
day and night. Her funeral sermon
was preached Sunday afternoon, Mar.

which Miss Jennie belonged, by pas.
tor, Rev. John Seiber. His text can
be found in the 9th chapter of st.
Mathew and 24th verse. "The maid
is not dead but sleepeth." We took
notes of his sermon but fear of maxi
ing our communication too long re-
trains US from giving it to your

brance of Bro. Seiber's remarks must
always prove source of comfort and
consolation TO the mourning relatives

To Relieve the German
Church al Martinsburg

The Senate has passed bill pro-
viding for the payment of $4,000 to
the German Evangelical Church of
Martinsburg. 1t seems that during
the war the church building was
taken charge of by Federal troops for
the purpose of sheltering a number of
sick soldiers. In an attempt to move
the stove to the centre of the church
the building caught on fire and was
destroyed. Scarcely any members of
the congregation could speak English
and nearly every male member was
an enlisted soldier in the Union
army. This is the first bill that has
ever been passed by the Senate TO pay
for the destruction of property under
similar circumstances, the custom be-
ing only to pay rent for the time it
was occupied. This is the second
time the bill has passed the Senate.
1t has been sent to the House and is
now before the Committee on War
Claims.
