Services were conducted by Rev. Father Muir

of criticism and fault-fnding, sin of awful pre-

outline will convey an idea of the sermon in full:

episode which occurred in Charleston. s. c. Years
ago a mother took her fve-year-old boy into
prison when she went to see his father, commit

stepped into the adjacent cell, having over it the
number 6S. To tease him the warden shut the
door, but quickly opened it at the little fellows
screams. His mother soothed him. saying: mo
body shan't ever shut my little boy up in a dark
prison." Years passed. The boys father and
mother died. His uncle helped him and gave him
money to get to New York. He fell in with bad
company, squandered his money and in sheer des-
peration attempted to commit burglary in his
uncles house. That relative was so enraged he
handed over his nephew to the authorities Look
ing at the number of his cell to his horror he saw
1897 and he knew that it was the self-same cell
that had inspired his boyish terror. Then his
mothers words came back, Nobody shan't ever
shut my little boy in dark CELL" and he wept as
he had not since her death, for he had loved that
mother. The warden's wife found him in melted
condition. He told her his story and she gave
him the utmost sympathy and kindness during
his long term. shortened by his good behavior.

terrible numbers 1885," he determined to make

The McGfbeny Family i'm Prison.

Last Sunday was a rare day in this institution.
After listening to an especially good sermon by
cur Catholic chaplain Rev. Father Murphy, we
returned to cells for a few minutes. and then
were again assembled in the chapel to be given
the pleasure Of an entertainment by the deserv.
eddy famous McGibeny family Of musicians. The
entertainment was purely q musical concert and
nearly the full program as produced in the OPP
era house in the city was given on the chapel
platform. Nothing was ever given in the chapel
that gave more genuine pleasure and satisfaction;
and it is hard to decide which gave us the greater
pleasure the music or the sight of the pleasant
kindly family, especially the little girls and boys
whose rosy faces were wreathed with varying
smiles of happiness. The following is the pro.
gram of the concert:

13. Grand March, FEATHER Of Victory" Viginels
Band.
The music was probably the best ever given in
this prison. and the singing captivated everyone.
Little Master Leo. the baby Of the family. was the
star of the OCCASION and the boys fairly went wild
over his performances. Leo is not q prodigy. but
talented little fellow of six years. full of life
and innocently mischievous ways that make the
heart warm to him. Master Jamie, the next
youngest member of the family, acquitted himself
admirably in the character song. Mother Says
Mustn't" There was not number on the pro-
gram but was encored. 1t would be hard to de-
eide the relative merit of individual members
each one was f1rst-class in his or her way. The
McGibeny family will long be pleasantly associ-
ated in the memory of the inmates OF the Still
water prison.; and if our wishing could increase
their success and prolong their happy family
union their ever desire would be gratifed and
their happiness would know no ending.

The Grippe.

Many people who had the
Grippe" last year still have
an unpleasant reminder of 1t iu
a dry, hard cough, or a tight.
ness across the chest, and a
general feeling of debility and
WEAKNESS. If these symptoms
be neglected they lead to gray
er evils. If all such will take
Reid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure, they will be re-
lieved at once. 1t has been
IN thousands of cases, and
never fails. 1t contains no
poisons, so that it stimulates
the depleted organs, gives new
tone to the bronchial tubes, and
enables the system to recover
Its n ormal strength. 1t was
said at the time that La
Grippe" was not fatal, but it
led to other maladies that were.
This has been proven by the
result: More people have had
bronchitis, catarrh, pleurisy,
and the like from "I-a Grippe
than were ever before afflicted
with these diseases. Ii has
been proved by actual trial
that Reid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure will at once eradi
cate the worst of these di- eases,
aud 1t does IT by stimulating
these organs and by building
nd the whole system. There is
no poison in it, so that it can
be taken with the greatest free
dom. Patients far gone with
lung trouble have fairly lived
upon 1t, and in all and every
case without deleterious results.
Those persons, therefore, who
have had the "Grippe" aud are
still feeling the effects of il. are
admonished to lose no time.
Buy a bottle of Reid's German
Cough and Kidney Cure and
take 1t freely. 1t will certain
ly cure You.

Guatemala Handicapped by Discontent
Among S01diers.

Among Soldiers.
Senior Castillanos, the Spanish Minis.
ter at the City of Mexico, has been in
formed that two Spanish warships have
been ordered to Central America. Sew
eral revolutionary bands are marauding
near the Mexican frontier in Guate-
malan territory. Both Guatemala and San
Salvador are trying to mass troops with
the utmost haste, but Guatemala finds
difficulty in the dissatisfaction OF her
soldiers. A Guatemala special dispatch
claims that the Guatemalan forces so
greatly outnumber the Salvadorians
that in the present week the tables will
be turned.
A dispatch to the London Times from
Buenos Ayres says: Early on Saturday
the artillery, joined by some civilians,
took the first stops to overthrow the
Government. The troops and the police
parleyed. Firing was opened at Paler.
mo, and soon extended to Plaza Lavalle.
The infantry and artillery, with
mitrailleuses, kept up heavy firing all
the morning The police fred at and
dispersed crowd around the Govern.
ment House, but the people kept firing
from houses. A determined group Of
forty men stood pluckily to their arms
In front OF the Government House, while
the roar Of the artillery and the roll Of
the musketry came nearer and nearer.
A policeman in mere wantoness split an
Englishman's head open with his saber,
and a bysiander shot the policeman
down. In tho afternoon the revolution
ary government issued its first decree.
This ordered the mobilization OF the
National Guard, and appointed Nicholas
Menalez chief Of police. At 8 o'clock on
Saturday afternoon, two attacks were
made by the government troops on
citizen batallions. The troops were re-
pulsed both times. Policemen and
artillerymen are lying dead in heaps.
The chief Of police, Capdeville, is
wounded. The Minister of War is re.
ported dead. Sharp fighting continues
around the artillery barracks. Here
