MEYER GUILTY.

New YORK, May 1s.--The jury in the
Dr. Meyer poisoning case returned YER
dict OF guilty in the second degree this
forenoon.
The crime for which DIR. Henry c. Il.
Meyer was tried was peculiarly cold :
oiooded and actrocious, the slow pois-
oning OF an accomplice in an
attempt TO defraud insurance companies.
DIR. Meyer was born in Minden, Prussia,
and Is about forty years OF age. lie
studied medicine and came TO this
country, settling in Toledo. Fifteen years
ago he removed to Chicago and commenced
practicing as physician. lie became ac-
quainted with one Ludwig Brandt, Nor
wegian, who had been reporter, and
was then agent for mutual benefit in
surance company. The two started in
TO defraud the company, but, being de-
tected, Meyer having forged his father-in-
laws name TO an application for a policy,
they were both cast i'm Jail, where with
Others they concocted this scheme.
When the verdict was announced,
DIR. Meyer, who sat beside his attor-
ney, young Mr.. Chanler, with arms
crossed, heaved a sigh OF relief and turned
eagerly towards his attorneys TO ask them
whether they would appeal the
case. This, DIR. Sullivan said, would be
done az matter OF course. Sentence
will not be declared till the motion for
appeal has been argued. Counsel for the
defense have two weeks time for this.

HOPELESS CASE,


DENVER, Colo, May 1s.-Congressman
Tom Johnson, of Ohio, has written to
Labor Commissioners Bfentlinger as
follows:
"While 1 disagree entirely with Mr..
Coxey. as regards his proposed remedies
for existing evils, j feel that this move-
troubles are symptoms of widespread
dissatisfaction and that indifference, con-
tempt or anything like repression OF free
speech Will only intensity the dissatisfac-
tlon.
The real anarchists of to-day are those
who ignore the evils and seek to stop free
discussion. The conservatives are those
who, seeing the wrongs, are anxious TO
freely discuss and abolish them"
The single tax, he says, would remedy
the existing troubles.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
z Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid

ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug

with Bulls only two weeks. Denny
formerly lived at Cadott, Chippewa
county, Wis, whore mis- parents now
are. He also resided in Kilsap county,
Washington, and was there in 1888.
Among his effects were found road
tax receipt and poll tax receipt issued
in that county in 1888. The road tax
receipt was signed by Burgess Hall,
supervisor of road district No. 8. From
Washington Denny drifted south. After
staying in San Francisco he came to
this city, where two weeks ago he fell
in with Bulls. The notorious counter
feiter at once saw an opportunity to en-
gage his newly found friend in coming
spurious money.
Immediately after the arrest of the
two men Saturday night Denny con-
fessed to the whole operation. He said
he was sorry for his crime, but was
forced to it through ill circumstances.
He knows that he will be- punished, but
SAYS he hopes it will be as light as possi-
BILE. BY his confession Detective Insley
was led to find the place where the men
buried their coin.
SCENE OF THE CONTEMPLATING.
Yesterday morning Denny was re.
moved from the city prison and directed
Insley to their camp.
1t is an isolated spot near zsnja No.
of the City Water company's, about
five miles norsh OF the city. on the bank
OF the Los Angeles river.
The camp is among group of viii
lows, hidden from view by high bank
on the one eide and the foothills on the
other. The public highway is only loo
yards distant, but 30 secluded is the
spot that there was very little likeli-
hood of it being discovered.
Denny led the way to the place very
easily, and, in the street vernacular
made no bones about giving the whole
secret away. He showed where the
metal was turned into bright, shining
coins, where and how the dies were
made-in fact, explained the whole
modus operandi OF successful counter
feiter, so far as he had learned it by two
weeks experience.
He directed Insley to the spot where

elor read an able paper on the initiative
and referendum as the only correct
method by which the will OF the people
can be sscertained on any question, and
the coming substitute fo- law-msking by
agents.
In the evening Prof. 9. Bowman dis
coursed on the New Era mode Of sowing
and reaping. Our daily actions are seeds
after their kind to be resped according
to their kind. The theological idea is
to SOW seed on this earth to reap in q
future heaven. 1t appears amazing that
rational man can believe that Just
God with a knowledge of the future
could permit an eternity of torment to
be the harvest of few moments SOW
ing on this earth.
The harvest will not be dispropor-
tionate to the sowing. 1t is mon
strosity to assert that single sin would
commit soul to everlasting hell-fre
for the glory of God. We cannot COW
bad seed and expect to reap pleasant
harvest. Men do not gather grapes from
thorns nor figs from thistles. This rule
applies also to nations az we'll as to in
dividuals. Righteousness exslteth a
nation, but sin will plunge it into the
hell of contention and bloody strife.
The seven financial conspiracies
against the people have been a terrible
sowing, and they are still sowing the
same kind of seed. More bonds, more
wind which shall add to the fury OF the
whirlwind. Heaven forbid that The
harvest shall be gathered l hope. ]
pray that the great body OF the Ameri-
can people will seek redress without
harvesting this uncanny sowing. The
people are flocking to this great reform
by the ballot, and let US hope that rea
son, and not vengeance, will prevail
/ Sow the seeds of reform and the harvee
will be free and happy nation.

DR.. w. J. Chichester delivered an i'm
pressive and surprisingly touching dis
course in Emmanuel church yesterday
morning. He took as his text The Be-
trayal of Christ by Judas. Whilst he
looked upon that betrayal as the most
abhorrent OF crimes, yet he held that
the fact that Judas when he realized
the unapproachsble pertidy of his act,
and saw that it eliminated in the cruel
fixion of the Master, went out and
hanged himself, showed that he was
struck with remorse and was not beyond
the reach of salvation.
II he had fallen at the foot OF the
cross where the Savior was undergoing
the great agony and implored His for
giveness, he would have received it.
"Father, forgive thy erring sons, they
know not what they do" would have
reached him as we'll as the others. He
betrayed Christ with kiss, but we all
cruelty Him anew when we sin against
Him. We are all guilty in ourselves OF
crimes against His laws whenever we
transgrese them, and help to reproduce
the agony that Judas produced, and 1t
is only by seeking Christ and repenting
OF our transgressiCns that Wa can atone
for our own betrayals. He has made
the promise that He will in no way cast
out those who come to Him, and the
sinner will find himself received as
Judas would have been received II he
had sought the intercession OF the COM
passionate Son of Man.

The pastor, Rev. A. g. Smither.
preached last night to good audience
upon ''The Blessings of Abraham"
Because of his faith in God. his loyal
obedience to him and his sterling in
tegrity before man God greatly blessed
Abraham.
God made Abraham great. He had
sublime trust in God. Few men have
ever approached him in faith. His faith
in God was most inspiring. Then his
name was made great. In all OF history
no man has equaled him in celebrity.
He 10 honored and revered alike by
Jew, Christian and Mohammedan. No
other man has such host OF followers.
His name is great in its power for good
over the human race. How many feeble
souls have been illumined Dy his noble
life?
All families OF the earth have been
blessed through His end. His descend
ants, the Jews, were separated from all
other nations and were made the de-
poeitaries Of Divine truth, and through
them much OF Divine truth has been re-
vealed. The Jews have been the worlds
great teachers of monotheism. They
have borne aloft this faith in our God
in all ages and countries. While they
have, as people, rejected the Christ,
vet, according to Christian teachings
they will yet receive Him and play 8
great part in the evangelization of the
race. We too often forget the debt the
world owes the Jews.
In Christ all nations are to be blessed
Eventually all people shall bow to him
and he shall be the Saviour of th {
whole race.
