Her little hands were clasped as she lis tened to the voice of the priest.

I saw her cheeks grow leaden hued and her tenn pies hollow. She felt not the approach of death, but continued to love, to be happy, to forget herself in her dream divine. Her head was piuowed on my arm, and watched her dark eyes grow wider, wider yet. Her hair shone upon the pillow like a mesh of gold. The silken bridal robe enveloped her like a cloud.

 Her voice sounds as if she had turneil back at the entrance of that mysterious land to call to me once more-it is like bells heard far off upon the sea. Her body grows cold in its rich winding sheet, but she no longer suffers. She repeats:
 ''I cannot die!'
 A vague smile hovers over her face, which always wears that look of inf mite love, of happiness without q shad- ow. My heart is still. At that moment I am all that loves in the world-I am mother, father. lover. She mur- murs again:

 Senator German then called upon Son

 conversations or interviews with tho pres
 ident on the subject of the compromise bill
 He stated with great positiveness that
 the president repeatedly said that he re-
 alizcd that the compromise bill was not
 all that he desired. but he appreciated that
 it was n great improvement ovor the Mo Kinley bill, and therefore he desired that the bill should become n law as 1t passed

 The statements of Vest, Jones and Har-

Announcement.

No apology is necessary on the
score of medical propriety for
thus announcing to the profession
and the public, that we have made
a long, careful and special study
Of cancerous diseases. together
with all malignant and other
tumors, and are able to offer the
results OF our extensive experience
in Kentucky and surrounding
countries in a system Of rational
and successful treatment, that we
believe has never heretofore been
attained, and we are able to point
to thousands of successful cases
not in Boosting, but rather in a
spirit of thankfulness, that we are
thus able to prove so clearly our
assertion; that our system does
cure cancer. With a positive
knowledge of this fact now so
fully endorsed by thousands Of suf-
ferers, and approved by the pro-
fession, we should be wanting in
humanity if we neglected any
means in our power to spread the
glad tidings among those afflicted
with this most terrible and hope
less of diseases.

Taken Into the Church Again.
LEXINGTON, KY, May AT a meet
ing of the session of the Mount Horeb
church, of which Colonel Breckin-
bridge is a member, and over which
his father once presided, he was sum-
moned to appear.
Mr.. Breckinbridge confessed his
guilt in about the same way he
testified in his suit at Washin-
ton and prayed for forgiveness,
saying he repented and would live a
new life in the future. After a con-
sultation he was forgiven and TAX en-
into the church again.
This move, it is believed, will put
Breckenridge in good standing with
the church people again.
