filling the largest churches here. and the
story of her life iR far from ordinary.
Her name is Mollie Meriman, a daughter
of D. H. Meriman, circuit-rider in the
M. E. church, south.
When years old an attack of scarlet
fever left her apparently dead. She was
prepared for the grave and the coffin had
been lowered, when the frantic mother
refused to be quieted until she saw her
baby once more. When the coffin was
opened, the physician, who was present,
noticed something unusual in the ap-
pearance of the supposed corpse. It was
taken out and found to be alive. But
never afterwards was the girl free day
from violent pain. Scrofula existed in
its most repulsive form for years. When
she was 16 scarlet fever again attacked
her, and she once more apparently died
and would have been buried but for the
mother. After six days she was resus-
citated.
At the age of 18 she was thrown from
a carriage and sustained sprained
ankle, when she went into convulsions.
She sometimes had as many as $50 in a
single day. While in this condition she
was taken ill with congestion of the
lungs, and from May to August was un-
conscious. The first day that she was
able to walk she fell and threw the
spralned ankle. back into place, and then
felt that she must preach the gospel.
Since last September 1000 persons have
been converted through her efforts.
Her height is just feet ten inches, and
she weighs 72 pounds. She holds as
many as tour services day, travelling
60 miles on horseback and talking again
at night.

parently unaware that they might save
themselves by surrendering, they ran
into the houses and kept up persistent
fire upon the Japanese until late at

The war In Manchuria.

SAN Francisco, April 2.-Advices have
been received by the steamer Rio ia
metro, from the Associated Prees corre-
spondent at Toxic, under date of March
IL, as follows: ~
The plan of the latest campaign in
Manchuria is now clearly explained,
though few important facts are added to
those previously reported. For the first
time since the capture of Ping Yang, the
movements of the Japanese troops are
directed by soldier skilled in the science
of modern warfare; and the same leader
that won the earliest of the series of VIC
tories now conducts the operation in the
valley of the Lao river.
General Nodzu, promoted to the high
est grade of the army, assumed control
in February of the first division, COM
in addition to his own-the fifth and the
third, ofwhich Lieutenant General Kat
sura is the chief. His scheme was to di-
vide the attention of the Chinese armies
in Manchuria, and keep them as far
apart as possible, while he concentrated
his forces upon the several points of at
tack.
Lieutenant-Ge Yamaji was first
ordered to take the field. About 5000 of
his division marched from Kaiping on
February "a, seized a strong Chinese
position some IL miles southeast of Ying
Kow, and by their threatening attitude,
prevented General Sung from sending
northward any large number of his
troops encamped at the mouth of the
Lia0 river.
On February % Lieutenant General
Katsura, with 5000 of the third division,
started from Hai-Cheng to drive the
Manchuria forces of General Ito toward
Lao Yang. For two days General Ito
retreated in much disorder, and when at
distance of 18 miles from Hal -Cheng,
General, Katsura suddenly turned and
led his men southwark again, but by
another road, which brought him to Old
New Chwang on the 4th of March.
Meanwhile, General Nodzu had crossed
from Hai-Cheng to New Chwang, in a
fifth division. A combined assault on
the position was made on March 5, and
at 2 O'Clock in the aiternonn the north
ern half was in the hands of the Japan
ese.
Several thousand of the defenders, be-
longing to the army of General WI, fed
through the southern gates toward Yine
Kow and Tien-Chwang-Lei. They would
have been followed by the entire body,

Rumors of a Possible Cabi-
net Vacancy.
WILL RESUME HIS POSITION
Cares or the once Weigh Heavily Upon
Him, and He win Take a Much
Needed Rest.

NEW YORK, April 2. - A morning
paper has the following special from
Washington: Another vacancy in the
cabinet, it is rumored, may occur with
in the next few weeks. Secretary Gresh-
am is the official who is slated for volun-
tary retirement. The report comes
from several of his close friends to
whom, it is said, he has more than once
expressed his desire to return to the
practice of law, if not to the bench.
Judge Gresham, it is stated, has not
found the state department as congenial
to his tastes as he had expected, and
Mrs. Gresham has not been altogether
pleased with the breaking of home ties
made necessary by her removal to
Washington. Both the secretary and
his wife have told intimate acquaint-
ances of their mutual desire to return to
Illinois.
The rumor of Mr.. Gresham's retire
ment, however, is not based alone on
these exchanges of confidence, but on
more direct statements regarding his in
tentions within the near future. Judge
Gresham's relations with the president
have been, so far as known, of the pleas
antest. No member of the cabinet has
been more trusted by Mr.. Cleveland, SO
that his desire for retirement from Office
in the near future cannot be ascribed to
any friction with his chief. It is hinted,
however, that Judge Gresham has felt
somewhat aggrieved over the disinclina-
ton of the cabinet to support him in
the vigorous foreign policy which he be-
lieves would win for him great popular
ity, and possibly make him favorite
for the presidency. It may be that ex-
tinguished hopes in this direction have
had a strong influence on him in reach
ing the conclusion that he would prefer
to retire. but this idea is secuted by his
friends, who assert that Judge Gresham
has not been moved by any such con-
siderations. They say that he has sim
ply consulted his wife's pleasure and his
own tastes in concluding to leave Wash
ington within short time.
Gresham's FRIENDS Say He Will Not
Leave the Cabinet.
WASHINGTON, April "A vigorous
denial is made in administration circles
of the story that Secretary Gresham is
about to resign. The secretary himself
will not be interviewed, not caring to
dignity the report by denial. It is a
fact that the secretary has been in ILL
health for some time, and a recent at
tack of neuralgia of'the stomach left him
much debilitated. He has been unable
to secure rest in Washington owing to
the frequency with which delicate and
embarrassing diplomatic questions have
been forced upon him, and it is probable
he will yield to the solicitations of his
family and friends SO far as to take a
short leave OF absence and go to his
farm in Indiana, and, perhaps, stop for
time in Chicago.

Perhaps you would not think so, but
very large proportion of the diseases
in New York comes from carleesnes
about catching cold, ''says DIR. Cyrus Ed
son. sit is such simple thing and so
common that very few people, unless it
is case of pneumonia, pay any atten-
ton to the cold. New York is one of
the healthiest places on the Atlantic
Coast and yet there are a great many
cases of catarrh and consumption which
have their origin in this neglect of the
simplest precaution of every day fife.
The most sensible advice is, when you
have one get rid of it as soon as possible.
By all means do not neglect it.'' DIR. Ed
son does not tell you how to cure cold
but we will. 1t will relieve the lungs,
aid expectoration, open the secretions
and soon effect a permanent cure. 80

that full and thorough examination has

Lively times are expected in the house

brought against Governor Clark, and it
Is understood that a resolution for that
purpose will be introduced by Monroe, of
Pulaski county. 1t is known that bitter
feeling exists between Monroe and the
governor, growing out Of an incident
which occurred in the executive office
some time ago, when the governor elected
the law maker. At least three other rep
resentativeS are said to be loaded with
speeches in which Governor Clark will be

PETER, who made the principal speech
in the senate in advocacy of an income

question at all. but he said yesterday in
an interview that he was of the opinion
that between $9,Op0Oo and $4,000, OO0

these two sources II the supreme court
had all owed them to stand.
He added that he thought that this
amount would have been about two-tairlis

total at SIS CO. 600. "The census reports
show" he said, THAT g. per cent. Of the

Edward Gray. said that the government
was sure that the United States had ap-

feasibility of the plans for building a
canal across Nicaragua to connect the At

could not appoint n commission to coop
crate with the United States commission
unless the government of the United

should do so.
In answer to question Sir Edward
said thht in case the construction of the
canal was proceeded with the government
would take steps to insure that British
