MRS. DIANA A. WALKER.

DIANA ADALINE WALKER, daughter of
Stephen r. and Sarah Saunders. was born on
Federal Greek, Hooking Co.. o., Feb. %, 1875
Died of consumption at Charleston West Va,
March q 1895. She was married to Ansel
Walker in 1910 and continued to live in Ohio I'M
til April 1869, when they removed to Charleston
where she leaves her husband. son. four
daughters and four grand-c hldren to mourn
their sad loss, three daughters having preceded
her to the better land. Deceased was reared
In the faith of the fathers" as then generally
accepted, and was content Herewith, until a
few years after her marriage, when her father
died rather suddenly, and unconscious, without
having evidenced to those about him that he
was accepted of God' and about the same time
her eldest child was taken from her by death.
Then it was that her heart began to yearn for a
broader and more encouraging faith than any of
which she had ever heard, a faith which would
bring hope to the stricken heart In the dark
hour of grief and sorrow.
While thus apparently yainly seeking for that
which would satisfy, and inspire hope where
none was. a neighbor kindly left where she
would find it a book entitled winchester on
the Prophecies" wherein she found great
comfort and consolation. About that time as II
by order of providence there came to her pos
session copy of the "Star In the West" and
she gladly embraced that faith which has for its
foundation the Fatherhood of God and brother
hood of man, and which ever after Kept her
serene and peaceful. She continued thencefor-
ward constant reader of the "Star in the
Vest the ''Star and Covenant" and THE UNI
vERsALIsT, successfully so that through this
medium the good and great of the Christian de-
nomination of her choice became her familiar
friends and companions In all her years of
accomplishing suiferings she was upheld by her
firm faith in Gods al-pervading love and died
in the triumph of that. The funeral services
were conducted by the Rev. DR.. Florence of the
Kanawha Presbyterian church, who paid high
tribute to her noble Christian character and re-
ferred eloquently to her answering faith in
Christ. which was SO broad and comprehensive
as to include the salvation of all men," Another
faithful wife, loving mother and noble Christian
woman has been transferred from this to a bet
ter life where she awaits the coming of the
friends who are to follow. H. C. NJ.

THE WEEKS NEWS.
TUESDAY. APRIL 80.

"PEoPLE should understand" said an
official of the Supreme Court. shat the
proceedings in the income tax cases are
a case of heads you win, tails l lose for
the government. The present status OF
the case is that the income from rentals
and local public securities are exempted
from taxation. They will continue so
exempted whatever the result OF the
new proceedings. There is possibility
that other holes may be knocked in the
law, and it is quite possible the whole
law will be upset. So you will see the
men with incomes have everything to
gain and nothing to lose from the pro-
ceedings.

Take up your collection for the annual per
capita tax. which is five cents for the average
attendance for the year which ends April 80.
During the first week in May send the report
and the collection. A money order is the safest.
but money itself will come safely. If there are
uneven sums, send in one or two cent postage
stamps.
Each pastor should take special interest in
seeing that his or her Sunday-school is promptly
reported with dues paid, so that may compare
favorably with others at our Convention.
Let every Sunday school in the State be rep
resented in my report. We have never had
report from all of our Sunday ch0ols. Perhaps
it is expecting too much to hope that we ever
shall have full report. But let us have. this
year, the nearest approach to perfect general
report. To secure this rests with the individual
school,

meet Great Britain's demand for the
payment of 915,000 indemnity for the
expulsion Of Consular Agent Hatch.
Lord Kimberly acceded to this, and, as
it was presumed the State Department
at Washington was acting for Nicaragua,
it was thought the incident would be
closed without further complications.
But as Nicaragua refused at the last
moment to acquiesce in this arrange
ment the original plan of occupying Cor

here Nicaragua secured the intermedia-

purpose of delay"

The London stock market was quiet
during the last week, and showed no in
dication of anything likely to disturb
the extreme ease in rates for money
Gold continued to flow in from the Con.
tinent and elsewhere under the influ-
ence Of foreign purchases of mining
shares, and to lesser extent of Ameri
can securities. The outside supply of
cash was increased by investment pur-
chases on behalf of the Bank of England.
The Colonial demands are assuming
large proportions, stimulated by the fav-
orable reception of the loans lately of
fered. The Chilian loan of 100000
recently authorized, will doubtless short
ly be offered here. The business of the
Stock Exchange was practically confined
to mining departments. The specula-
ton was most marked in the shares of
South American ventures. Canadian
railway securities improved in sympathy
with the rise in Americans. The ac-
count in Grand Trunk securities showed
a great preponderance in purchases. The
steady buying of American bond issues
was notable.
