DR. o. c. Gage, the noted specialist for all
difficult diseases, by special request will be at
the Avenue House, st. JohnSbury, Friday,
June 90 and at Parker House. Woodsville,
Saturday, June 21- The Doctor is meeting
with most extraordinary success and his
great discoveries enable him to guarantee a
cure pay i'll many diseases hitherto
deemed incurable. Judge b. L. Badger of
Concord, N. H., says he had been troubled
for 20 years with large bleeding and protrud-
ing pile tumors, and that DIR. Gage completely
cured him by one painless application of 3
minutes. The treatment did not inconven-
fence him in the least and he held court as
usual every day while being cured. DIR.
Gage positively cures every such and
guarantees it or no pay. Vim. J. Berry of
Lyndonville says that DR. Gage cured him of
an injury to the spine which Others had failed
to reach A T. Gay of Groton, Vt, had
lung disease and hemorrhage and had been
given up, but DIR. Gage cured him. DIR. Levi
B. Dodge of Waterford, Vt, says DR.. Gage
saved his life; he had frightful bleeding from
kidneys and bladder and confined to
bed Ora Bishop, Postmaster of McIndoeS,
says Dr. Gage cured his wife. &. l.. Buffam,
North Monroe, n. H., wonderful cure of
spinal disease, was helpless. Duncan Mckay,
Groton, cured after others had failed. NJ. s.
Bedell, Ryegate, says DIR. Gage made a great
cure for his son o. N Bedell. DIR. Gage has
the most remarkable success. Indeed, he has
no equal and will not say he can cure unless

At the South Church.

At a union service at the South
church Sunday evening, Rev. DR.. J. E..
Rankin, president of Howard uni
versity, Washington, gave an in
teresting and practical discourse
from Acts 4 %, "And being let go,
they went to their own company, "
announcing as his subject, elective
affinities" Certain elements in
nature have an affinity for each
other, and uniting from a new sub
stance. The very air we brea the and
the water we drink are composed of
component parts which have thus
come together for a new and perma-
nent result. In human life we see
these elective affinities by which
families, churches and societies are
formed, and also by which evil and
wicked plOtters naturally find and
join their own. This principle of
elective affinity makes clear the final
state of the soul-the good with the
good, and the bad with the bad-as
now, SO then, each go ''tO their own
company"

SUNDAY SERMONS.
At the Methodist Church.

Rev DIR. l.. E. Thorpe, pastor of
the First Methodist church at Bay
Shore, N Y, preached two strong
sermons here last Sunday. There
was an unusually large attendance
at the morning service when the
speaker preached from the text,
Work out your own salvation with
fear and trembling" The preacher
said man was here in the world to
work. Everything that is on the
earth today was here when the
world was created but man has not
until recently worked them out. The
coal always existed in the mines but
mans work was needed to make it
useful to us AS his views broaden
he begins to make use of the gifts of
the Creator. Some people complain
of what they have to pass through
but trials make men of those that
are tried. Salvation comes only by
work and sacrifice and service.
Af the NORTH CHurcH.
Rev. Dr. J. Orimel Peck of New
York preached here Sunday morning
to good audience His text was
found in John 7: II and his theme
was 1.-The self-demonstrating power
of Christianity" The speaker repre-
sented himself as an a2nOstic seeking
the truth and in a logical and forci-
BILE way proved his points He be-
gan by describing the wonderful con-
struction and use of the hand, eye
and heart and followed with series
of questions on the meaning of life
and death and the Supreme Being.
Every man according to his intelll-
gence or ignorance is seeking after
knowledge of the Supreme Being.
The Bible tells who created man and
every other animate and inamInate
thing Then followed a demonstra-
ton of the divine origin of the Bible
and finally the testimony of the power
of God to save the human soul. The
sermon had frequent illusions to the
events of the speakers early life in
this county and closed with touch
ing incident in his pastorate at Chi

OUARRyING ONYX.
HOW IT is TAKEN FROM THE MEXI-
. CAN MINES IN BLOCKS.

Some rare specimens OF Mexican
onyx and mosaic agate from South
ern Mexico may be seen in one OF
the Coleman House parlors. They
are the property Of William Cooper,
n gentleman who has Travelled al
most the entire globe. He has q
passion for exploring, and he found
this beautiful collection in the vol
cano of ZempOaltepet, in the eX-
tremc southern part Of Mexico, one
hundred and eighty miles south
from the nearest station on the Mexi-
can railroad.
Mexican onyx is n form Of stalag-
mite, and its eolors are formed OF
oxides Of metals in the earth over
the caves through which the calcar-
eous water passes. Gold il represent
ed by purple, silver by yellow, iron
by red, copper by green, and arsenic
aud zinc by white. Volcanic erup-
tiOns and earthquakes have almost
destroyed the caves In which onyx
exists, and the native Indians who
mine it have 10 cut through MASSES
of ruins.
Blocks Of the material are quarried
in primitive way in order not "a
shatter the substance. Deep round
holes are drilled by hand on a line
In each hole is inserted a snug
fitting piece of wood which has
been grOoved from end 10 end. Hot
water is poured Into the grooves al
night. This swells the wood, and
the block is split along the line
without damage The natives then
saw the blocks into slabs and polish
the surface by hand. Each piece il

They win AN strike.

CHICAGO, April 24.-It was orig.
inally the intention OF the Ameri.
can Federation Of Labor thzt the
carpenters only should at present
make demand for the eight-hour
day, but the developments today
and yesterday show that the other
trades are not likely to conform 10

pers- Nearly every prominent
trade Of the city has, through its
union, declared its intention 70 also
demand the eight-hour day on May
lst- Gompers desired the other
trades TO hold off and contribute f.
nancially TO the carpenters as
sistance until the latter had
gained their point, and to cone in,
turn by turn, but President Com
per's circular letter has been entirely
disregarJied, and, in addition to
the carpenters, the stockyards and
packing house employees, gasfittens,
iron mOulders, slairbuilders, mill
carpenters and harness makers have
already declared their intention to
fight, and their example is liable to
be followed by the tailors, shoe
makers, plasterers, fathers, cornico-

Low Cost Of Gas Stoves.

In ordinary cooking stoves, from
six to eight feet OF gas an hour n
each burner is sufficient for the
burners used for boiling, frying, etc;
from twelve to twenty feet per hour
for roasting and broiling; from six
to twelve feet per hour for heating.
II it is desired TO reduce the con-
sumption to less than the above
figures, all that is necessary is to
turn the gas partly of. To arrive
at the cost Of the gas used in any
burner per hour, all that is needed
is the price and the quantity used.
Example: If two burner stove is
used just an hour and the burners
using six feet Of gas each, il would
consume twelve ieet in that time-a
fair average. Gas at 81 go per thou
sand feet, which is also fair, would
be sixteen cents per hundred feet or
6-IO mills per foot, or 92-l00 cents
the total cost OF running n stove of
this size one hour. This estimate is
for a two burner or double stove.
For n single burner stove it would
he one-half the cost, or 95-l00 Of a
cent per hour. If larger burners are
used than six feet, rs Is usually the
case in heating stoves, the cost in.
creases in the same proportion, but
II should he borne in mind that the
more gas used the more heat is Oh
tained.-sood HOsissiecpf1g.

WAS Nc Eyraud:

NEW YORK, April 2i.-Coroner
Wood Of Port Richmond, r. l., said
today that he felt sure that the body
Of the Billsw Brook suicide was that
Of Michael Eyraud, the Partisan
strangler, who killed Deputy Mar
shall GOuffe. The coroner found
marks on the body SUN as Eyraud
was said TO have. The LEFT leg gave
-evidence that II had at one time
been broken. The French strangers
leg Is said TO have been broken in
the same place. The large and pc
culiar shaped eyes, similar TO those
Of Eyraud's, the forehead, nose and
hands all correspond with those OF
the French murderer. Before the
coroner and his jury left the court
house at midnight they were fully
convinced that the body Of the sui
eide was that Of Eynud.
Coroner Wood came specially TO
the city TO inform the French Con-
sui that the suicide was the French
strangler, Eyraud, and tO.inquire as
to what action the French govern
ment intended 10 take in the matter.
The French Consul later viewed
the remains with twG- 1rsOhs who
knew Eyraud and they declared
that the remains were not his.
