THE DIRECT ROUTE EAST.

The Ohio and Mississippi Railway, run
ming east from st. Louis, is the short and
direct line to the National Capital, and
offers through train service which is not
equaled by any other line. 1t is, properly
speaking, the only direct through car line
from the Mississippi River to Washington.
The Ohio and Mississippi Railway is
the only line running all trains through
solid from St. Louis to Cincinnati; the
time being less than ten hours; and the
only line running double daily lines Of

Abraham Lincoln

When leaving his home at Springfield, ILL.,.
to be inaugurated president Of the United
States, made farewell address to his old
friends and neighbors, in which he said,
"NEIGHBoRs GIVE YOUR BOYS A CHANCE"
These words come with as much force
to-day as they did thirty years ago.
How give them this chance:
Up in the Northwest is q great empire
waiting for young, and sturdy fellows to
come and develop it and grow up with
the country" All over this broad land
are the young fellows, the boys that Lin
coin referred to, seeking to better their con-
dition and get on in life.
Here is their chance!
The country referred to lies along the
Northern Pacific r. X. Here YOU can find
pretty much anything you want. In Min.

North Dakota, the finest Of prairie lands
fitted for wheat and grain, or as well for
diversified farming. In Western North
Dakota and Montana, are stock ranges

Strange hal!ucination.

ROCHESTER, n. Y, July 3l.-A
strange illustration of mental aberra-
ton and hallucination has recently de-
veloped in the person of Mrs. j. NJ.
Alvord, who lives at No. 231 Lake
avenue. Until within the last two
weeks there has been no particular
manifestation made by this woman to
indicate that her ordinary state
of mind had been upset, but
since then she has been subject to
many peculiar freaks which show that
she is at times totally without reason.
The true state of affairs was not even
suspected until to-day. The woman
went before Judge Warner and cooily
stated that the Brush Electric Light
company had decided to use her as a
sort Of meter for measuring its electric
current, and that she feared the pass
ing of the current through her body
would result in her death. She asked
the Judge to grant an injunction re-
straining thecompany from putting her
to any such use. The judge informed
her that she would have to get a lawyer
to draw up the papers for her before
he could take notice of the accusation
In response to the inquiry by the
Judge as to why she thought that the
light company had selected her as a
subject, she merely replied that she
was woman who lived an exemplary
life. and the company thought her a
good person upon whom to to try
their experiments. She next went to
Supt. Cleary with her strange tale,
and to no purpose did the superin-
tendent endeavorto relieve her mind of
its strange imaginings. Not appeasedby
the superintendent, she dropped in at
Mayor Curran's office. and poured her
tale of woe into his unsympathetic
ears. The woman would not he

other subjects the woman is perfectly
rational. 1t is thought the bOtch

at Albany has nreved upon her mind.

NATIONAL LEAD CO.,

CLARK Avenue and Tenth Street.

American Provision company, one
o the great packing firms OF the city,
a I'd of Jack" Cudahy, the heavy
packer and daring operator in hog
productsand of Weight and Naughty,
heavy receivers and shippers of grain,
we're announced, creating the utmost
CONSERVATION, and prices began to
tumble all over the floor of the ex-
change.
Cudahy is largely interested in the
North American company and as
Wright and Haughey are interested
with Cudahy in the deals, the failures
of the last two firms is not unexpected.
Cudahy had been carrying a large
amount of lard and in addition dealt
rather heavily in ribs. The sudden
slump Of pork this morning caught him
unprepared to meet the declines in
lard and ribs which accompanied it
and thus he was forced to the wall.
1t is impossible now to estimate the
amounts involved but they are believ-
ed to be very large. The North
American company alone was capital
lied at $3.50, 900. The John Cudahy
Packing company with branches at
Louisville and Nashville, is owned by
Cudahy, but its affairs are separate
from his private affairs and so far
there are no indications that It is in
vOlved in his downfall.

FRANCE A ROBBER.
Some Strong Opinions Elk.
pressed by Minister Boyd.

WASHINGTON, d. C., July 81
Mr.. S. H. Boyd, minister resident and
consul general OF the United States at
Bangkok, entertains some interesting
O. Unions in regard to the Franco-Siam-
csc trouble. General John A. Hal
derman of this city, who was Mr..
Boyd's predecessor at Siam, and with
Queen Victoria and Sir Edwin
Arnold enjoys the distinction of being
the only foreigner who has ever re-
ceiyed the decoration of the Order of
the White Elephant from the king Of
Siam, has received letter from Mr..
Boyd, in which the minister gives
vent to some characteristic expressions
which throw new light on the situa-
ton and discloses a bit of history.
Mr.. Boyd is at his home in Spring
field, Mo-, and writes from that place.
He says:
81 feel deep regret and sorrow for
the Kingdom of Siam. The attidute
of France is that of the highwayman
and robber. She is powerful rs COM
pared with Siam, and her conduct
appears to me ignoble and unpardon-
able, with all her deeds of the past so
dear to Americans. As between the
Kaiser and the so-called Republic l
am Kaiserite, body and soul. al
ways believed France and England
were managing to goble up farther
India, and l think they are now part
ners, and fear Russia has entered
the combine to extend her domiliOns
southwark. None of them have any
valid claim, and it is sheer pretsnse,
Just like the wolf and the lamb in
Esop's fable. There are no French
residents in Bangkok; none anywhere
in Siam except on the peninsula, and
very few there
Abiding to the disputed territory
Mr.. Boyd continues:
The Mekong Valley is One-nird
of Siam and all the valuable timber of
Siam is on the headwaters of the Me-
kong. British and French officials in
Siam were always talking of the stand
still policy of the Siamese and said
that christianity and the march of
civilization demanded and warranted
a change, even at the expense OF the
kingdom. One kind word from our
government one year ago would have
been valuable, intellectually valuable,
to Siam. Blaine was willing to speak
but the cry of jing'.:sm' frightened
the administration.
81 do not know what to think of
Gresham. He appears to me to oc-
cupy his place as joke more than
anything else. Quincy appears to me
to be a most practical, comprehensive
and well-informed gentlemen and
ought to see the advice Of Washing
ton, Beware of foreign entangle-
ments, has Outlived itself. As peo-
pie we are great and strong enough to
keep nations that need help from the
guns Of country-eating Europe. If
Quincy could induce the president to
say one kindly word in Slams behalf
the whole machinery Of the conspiracy
would stop. Cleveland would be in
the right and the better portion Of the
world would sustain him."

The finding Of the committee appoint
ed TO investigate the charges OF immor
ality and conduct unbecoming a minis
ter of the gospel, against REV" j. f
ChenOweth was in the following words
1--WE, the committee, to investigate thC
case Of the Church against Rev. j. F
C%henoweth, report that after a careful
consideration and examination OF all thu
testimony offered, both charges brough'
against the accused are sustained unan
imOusly."
BY that decision, the accused was
obliged either to stand trial before the
West Virginia Conference of the NJ. E.
church at Grafton, which body has just
closed its meeting or withdraw under
those charges.
In view Of the fact that some very
serious charges were made by him
against the church of Christ, in an artl,
Gle in the daily IntelIigcncer of Satur-
day, April 18th, 1898, let us for the sake
Of the church see in what position the
author Of that article, the accused, is
now. Here are his charges:
"People living in the interior Of the
0AGNO AlOW NAp oHAAlN mhullbSLtu Wy Eut
C~ampbellite church towards the Meth
odist church. In the interior Of the
State, the ~Campbellito church is as
bigOted and intolerant as the Church OF
Rome, and ruin in any way they can
the reputation and standing of Meth
Odist ministers" He also says: This
will be clearly proven by the defense at
the trial"
The day for the trial came and the
accused withdrew under the charges Of
gross immortality and conduct unbe-
coming a minister. There was no trial,
for the accused did not wish one.
Therefore the charges made by the &C
cused against the church could not be
clearly proven. He promised to prove
them. He has not done so. Now then,
unless the accusations he has made
against the church are reafirmed by
him, he acknowledges that they were
not susceptible OF proof, or else ac-
knowledges what be knew 10 be false.
The article in It's entirety contains
several accusations against certain
members Of the Church of Christ and
others. With the promise of the ac-
cused that hey would be clearly prov
ed by him at the trial, is not his with
drawal from the ministry and member
ship OF the church, on his refusal 10
meet his accusers, or by whatever name
10 nay be called, q confession that the
charges against him were true? II not
a confession OF the truth of the charges
against him, does not his action at
once put the stamp Of falsehood upon
the charges ygainst the church and his
accu sations against the people referred
to in the article Of April 18th, 1898.
We think so, and that the church is
once more indicated. Peoples sins
will find them out. w. j. z.
