On the wedding day the bride Is led
through the villages in the neighbor-
hood, mounted on mule, and escorted
by friends and relations. who shout

various householders hasten forth to

Then they give her some fresh eggs,

any evil designs against her and her

ROUGH ON NEW YORK.

Rev. Thomas Dixon preached in New
York city on Sunday on the "Seven
Plaques of New York." saying that for
twenty years Professionalism had been
colossal failure. "As at present consti
tuted," he said "the majority of the
churches in the city are doing nothing,
but are a positive hindrance to the pro
gress of Christianity and are repudiated
by the spirit of Christ. They are an
incum mbrance upon the face of the earth,
a plague and a hindrance to the advance
ment of truth, because they are as Christ
says in the Gospel, Neither hot nor
cold" The Baptist denomination in this
city own 1900, 600 worth of property, and
although within the last twenty years
$1,000 children have been born in that
faith, the church has in that time lost
1000 members. The combined wealth of
the Baptist Presbyterian and Methodist
churches here is sl6,OOO0OO. There are in
these churches the brainiest men of the
age, and yet they are not holding their
own. They are a curse, because they are
only maintaining the traditions of dead
past Their machinery is so much sacred
junk-holy junk, to be sure, but junk all
the same-that should be put up at auc,
ton and sold to the highest and best
bidder.
What the people want is new church,
a church that will be popular, church
that will reach the masses, and that is
what the churches of New York are try
ing to avoid. There are 80 per cent. of
the population of New York tenants, and
the remainder landlords. The churches
of today are trying to catch the 10 per
cent. and let the 80 per cent. go by the
board"

A Cheap Trip to the Rockies.

The annual meeting of the National
Educational Association, which is to be
held in the city of Denver next July, pre-.
sents an excellent opportunity to visit
the scenic wonders of Colorado and Utah
aU a very small expense, and no teacher
should miss what promises to be one of
the largest meetings ever held. All the
railroads have made very much reduced
rates from the east and the lines beyond
Denver have made corresponding reduc.
tions to all the mountain resorts; the
"Circle" trips and to Salt Lake City.
The Burlington Route" Chicago, Bur
lington and Quincy Railroad, which oper.
ates over its own tracks from Chicago and
St, Louis direct to Denver, is the short
line and peoples favorite to the Queen
City of the Plains, and teachers and their
friends should be sure to select it for their
journey.

LOSS OF $so,OOo,ooo.

Labor saving inventions or discoveries
have often been violently opposed on the
ground that they take workingmen's
bread out OF their mouths. Although
experience has shown the fallacy of that
theory the feeling, or fear, was natural.
But 1t is not so much the lack of work
as the inability to work that causes
poverty and suffering. In England and
Wales every workingman averages ten
days of sickness every year, with a total
loss Of wages for al of about $50 600 600
per year. In this country the loss is much
greater. In all countries the prevailing
disease is indigestion and dyspepsia and
its consequences-such as rheumatism,
and other ailments resulting from impure
blood a result of dyspepsia
No thorough, rapid and trustworthy
cure for this universal and obstinate
malady existed until the Mt. Lebanon

upon the market their now famous remedy
called the Shaker Digestive Cordial. It
Is prepared from roots and her bs cultivated
solely by them. Nothing more certain,

expels the impurities from the body by
means of the bowels, kidneys and skin,

pends. For many years the Shakers have
given earnest attention to this subject,
and their final success is thankfully ad-
mitted by the multitudes who have bsen
cured by the Cordial after all other means
have failed. Their high reputation for
skill as herbalists, for honesty and religi-
Gus sincerity guarantees whatever they
recommend.

PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.
A Day of Veto Misrepresentation Quay a,
the Capital.

IN Ddy VI HSbb nAeset- -i9~htAApA Auhg az
the Capital.
HARRISBURG, May 3-Joint Memorial
Day exercises were held yesterday in the
hall Of the house of representatives The
affair was in charge Of the cid soldiers or.
ganization of the legislature, and was par.
tiCipated in \. members OF both bodies.
Hhe chamber was tastefully decorated
With flags, banners and flowers. The eX.
crcises continued over an hour
At the close of the exercises the senate
retired and the house prgceeded to the
consideration of the local and special bills
on second reading. The calendar was
cleared and the afternoon and evening
sessions devoted to appropriation bills, a
large number being passed.
The afternoon session of the house ad-
iourned fifteen minutes earlier than usual
so that the members might pay their re-
spects to Senator Quay who reached this
city in the afternoon from his home in
Beaver. Senator Quay expects to remain
in the city over Sunday. His visit is un-
derstood to be for the purpose of confer.
ring with his friends in the legislature
and urge them not to permit the passage
of the apportionment bills.
Governor Hastings sent two veto mes
sages to the house. The first relates to
house bill limiting the duration of the Ii n
of taxes against real estate 1t is vetoed
because such a law would, in the opinion
of the governor, be very burdensome OF
all persons whose interest it is to deter
mine the amount of incumbrances upon
real estate.
The second vote of the bill authorizing
appeals to be made in equity cases of ac-
count where the liability to account is in
issue from the preliminary order or decree
of court requiring an account" is sent in
because a better bill on the same subject,
the governor says, which was introduced
in the senate is in process of passage
through the assembly.
Owing to the joint memorial services in
the hall of the house the senate did very
little business. Before these services were
begun large number of bills were re-
ported from committee. Several vetoes
were received from the governor. Among
the bills disapproved was one granting
about s., 500 to Felix c. Negley, of Alle-
| gheny, for recruiting services during the
war. The governor also vetoed the bill to
pay for the electric light and rent for the
Worlds fair rooms in this city, grano-
lithic pavement for the Capitol park, etc.
Another veto was of the concurrent reso-
luton for the payment of over $4,000, in
possession Of the state to the unpaid la
borers employed in the construction OF
the Wernersville Hospital for the Chronic
Insane, and the men who furnished ma
terials for the building. The governor
| holds that the German American Title
and Trust company of Philadelphia, has
a claim which takes precedence over that
