composed OF false statements. designed TO IN
3ure aud Cypress the cause Of silver, and mis-
lead The masses of the people; and
Whereas, Such infamous falsehoods are
propagated for the sole and only purpose
Of binding the borrowing classes and in
fiating the rate of interest that has fattened
such corporations as the Connecticut Mu-
tuel Life Insurance company aforesaid, and
Whereas, a. he people Of the west have for
forty years paid tribute to the east ID high
and exorbitant rate Of interest on securities
based on the development of the productive in

DISTINGUISHED PEOPLE HEARD FROM.
Large numbers of letters from noted
men, congressman, governors, mayors,
judges and heads of commercial bodies,
continue to pour into the offices OF the
executive committee of the Trans Mis-
sissippi congress, and each day adds to
the enthusiasm the coming meeting is
awakening throughout the trans Missis-
sippi country. The Southern Pacific has
come into the fold and made one fare
for the round trip rate for delegates to
both the Trans Mississippi and Cattle
mems congresses. Delegates have been
named for the states of Montana, Iowa
and Arkansas, and Colorado has named
six additional delegates.
Tomorrow night the Ogden delegates to
the congress will meet in the city hall and
after organizing discuss important ques-
tons in connection with the coming
meeting.

Lincoln Banquet.

The 9th annual Lincoln banquet of the
Ohio Republican League will be held in
the city of Columbus on the night of
February 14th, 1898. For half dozen
years this has been the great Republican
festival of this State when Republicans
Of all shades of belief have met together
to do homage to the memory Of the great
man whose birthday anniversary it cele-
brates and to strike hands for earnest
cooperation for one common cause in
the future. The banquet promises to be
all that its predecessors have been in all
of its appointments. 1t is yet too early
to announce the names of those who
will respond to toasts, but the list already
secured includes the names of many OF
the most gifted leaders of our own and
other States. 1t may not be amiss, how
ever, to say that one of the speakers will
be Governor Mckinley, and it is not
difficult to guess that his speech will be
the keynote of the great contest to be
fought for political supremacy IN this
State this fall.
Admission tickets to the banquet will
be IS each, as in former years, and the
number will be limited strictly to 800, &c
that tits important for all who wish "a
attend to purchase their tickets early
Tickets may be had from William q
Mcdonald, Secretary of the Ohio Repub.
iican League, Columbus, O., by enclos
| ing check or post Office order for the
amount. No tickets will be sold the last
four days preceding the banquet. 1t is
| sincerely hoped that as many from thi,
locality will attend the banquet as pos
sible,

Unhealthy Churches,

The medical officer of health for the
city Of London has started movement
to compel ell the churches of the city to
remove the dead that are buried
beneath their floors, and bury them at
Ilford. 1t is said that the condition Of
many of these churches Is frightfully
unhealthy, as they literally stand over
. mass of dead bodies In various stages
of decay, from which 1t Is wonder
that . pestilence has not resulted long
ago. The move has created great cons
formation among the vestrymen Of the
churches, as the process OF exhumat ation
will be expensive as well as dangerous,
the average cost per church being esti-
mated at ten thousand dollars. One
warden positively refused to allow any
interference with the dead, but when
the health officer had the flooring Of his
pew taken up, and showed him what
lay beneath him every Sunday, he
quickly changed his mind. One man
tried to block the proceedings by
claiming the body of mis- grandfather,
which was buried in one Of the aisles
of the church some fifty years ago. He
was told that he could have 1t, OF
course, all that was necessary was for
him to identify it.

DANGER OF FOOTBALL.

Muscular and Nervous Stamina Needed In
tho Gamo, and Plenty OF Each.
Few except those who have been
through the experience are aware what
exertion and strain and exhaustion a
hotly contested football match in
wolves. It is all great deal more than
appears on the surface, and the self
control required In the midst of great
excitement adds to the nervous tension
besides the physical fatigue. This Of
itself is enough to try an average man,
but when to it Is added the struggles,
the falls, the grappl,ngs, the blows
(for, according to the Philadelphia
Times, there arc blows once in awhile),
It requires stamina and real endurance
as we'll as strength to stand It, Be.
cause the men on tho opposite sides IN
the field are not seen squaring of and
striking at each other in regular Sulh-
van-Corbett style, 1t does not follow
that there are not scientific ways in
which in the tussels a man can be ma
terially weakened, or some particularly
aggressive member of it disabled. Let
any man in fair condition be suddenly
thrown to the ground and then have
one or two heavy men, or 1t may be
seven or eight, fall and throw their
weight on him. Possibly his hand may
be under one of their feet, or in the fall
one of their forearms may have choked
him across the neck. How much wind
and energy will an average man have
after one such experience as that? And
yet it is common football experience.
Many man is hurt more in a football
fight than he cares to admit, and so he
makes light OF 1t and plays on for the
sake Of the college or team and from
self-pride. But games appear to be
growing rougher, and there are a great
many accidents and injuries, and,
taking all the teams in and around
Philadelphia, it would be astonishing II
the extent of the injuries received in
football were known. There is one doc
tor In Philadelphia who has on his list
thirty cases of injury at football, and
they are nearly all cases requiring sur
Gical treatmont.

Concerning the wearing away Of Nj
agars Falls. Prof. LIE Comic says: The
upper stratum of rock Is Niagara lime
stone. hard rock. but beneath 1t is a
stratum Of shale. 1t Is the slow under
Rning of this shale that causes the lime
stone to break off from year to year
and the falls to recede. They are reced-
ing now at the rate of three or four
feet year What will be the final re-
suitP They may go back to the lake,
but the limestone is growing thicker
and thicker and may finally extend to
the bottom of the falls. In that case
the rock would not break off, but would
wear away and form rapids. In any
case, if the falls should recede to Lake
Erie, at the present rate it would take
at least twenty thousand years"

Rutherford Birchard Hayes was born 10

at the law school at Cambridge, Mass. In
1s45 he was admitted to the bar at Mari
eta, o., and commenced the practice al

natl, and soon had a very remunerativs
practice.

Ware Webb, daughter of DR.. James Webb
