Christian Church Meeting.

niqht Bro. Jones showed his hap
piness by his smile and it is worthy OF
remark that when he smiles, that
same smile takes up the greater part
of his face. The reason for the
preachers Joy, was the unusually
good afternoon meeting and hearing /
the good confessions made. The col /

expression said more plainly than

NO NEWS OF THE La GAscoGNE.
Missing Steamer Now Five Days
Overdue.

Overdue.
NEW YORK, Feb. There was
no sight nor sign today of the miss
ing La Gascogne, no intimation of
her whereabouts, or of the mishap
that may have befallen her. From
those who report all vessels inward
bound came the answer, mo news, :"
to the oft-repeated query, us the La
Gascogne sighted yet?"
And with the big French liner five
days overdue and no word of her or
the 372 souls aboard, the anxiety
has grown to suspense. Some hope
was found in the theory that the
White Star line steamship Teutonic,
now two days overdue from Liver
pool, is standing by to aid the miss
ing vessel. Of all the trips that the
twin screw flyer of the White Star
fleet has made across the trans-At-
lantic track. none has, been SO slow
as this. The uTeutoniaI has -herato=
fore always arrived ABOUT, ON timer
With squalls Of snow filling the air
of the coast tonight, lit would have
been quite impossible for either. La
Gascogne or the !Teutonic to come up
the bay and anchornwithout either
the operator at Fire island or Sandy
Hook sighting them. And with the
snow and drift of ice in the lower
bay and all the electric buoys torn
from their mornings, it is certain
that no pilot would be daring enough
to run either craft up to quarantine
in the night.

A Terrible .Visitant,

Pain is always a terrible visitant,
and often domiciles itself with one for
life. This infiiction is preventible, in
cases of rheumatism, by a timely re-
sort to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which checks the Entertainments of
this obstinate and dangerous malady
at the outset. The term dangerous
is used advisedly, for rheumatism is
always liable to attack the vital organs
and terminate life. No testimony is
more conclusive and concurrent than
that of physicians who testify to the
excellent effect of the Bitters in this
disease. Persons incur a wetting in
rainy or snowy weather, and who are
exposed to draughts, should use the
Bitters as a preventive of ill effects.
Malaria, dyspepsia, liver and kidney
trouble, nervousness and debility are
also among the ailments to which this
popular medicine is adapted For the
infirmities. soreness and stiffness of
the aged it is highly beneficial.

Blixt was next Intercepted as to
omissions in his statements made be-
fore the trial He stated that he could
not remember, when he first talked of
the case, all Of the details which have
since occurred to him. Finally Mr..
Nye said to Mr.. Erwin: 81 think you
had better put these statements in
just as they are. I know there are
some errors in them"
The witness testimony in regard to
Hayward's threats to kill Mrs. BliXt,
the place where Hayward had told
him to shoot to kill, and his telling
Blixt that he had made Miss Cling
write notes to him, were among the
things which witness could not say

At this point Mr. Erwin turned to

The other morning blue hawk dived

second-growth timber near where
Farmer Tabor was blowing in Eaton
township. 1t disabled a quail, but
failed to secure it, and the frightened
birds arose and settled down around
the plowman. Tabor stopped the team,
and, while the startled game birds sat
trembling on the soil, the crippled quail
joined them. The others flew to the
woods presently, and the hawk sailed
around and kept an eye on the wounded
quail. Tabor ended the disabled
quails sufferings, and at noon set 1t up
on the ground as though il were in the
act of pec1ing, and with fifty feet of
fish line fixed a snare for the hawk.
When he returned to the field after
dinner the hawk was yanking and
futtering at the line, fifty feet up in
the air, one of it's feet having been
caught in the snare. Tabor drove the
team into the woods, and within half
an hour he saw eight crows flying to-
ward the Tapping hawk with cries of
delight. They began out of hand to
whack the hawk, and cawed triumph
antly as they kept it spinning and
twitching at the line. The screaming
quail killer lowered and raised itself,
but the cruel crows had got it for good,
and they belabored it ceaselessy till 1t
dropped to the ground, where they
, pounded it to death. Then they went
caWing to the woods, and few sec
onds later fox stole out of the bush,
set his tusks into the hawk, snapped
the fish line in two, and disappeared
in the timber with his prize.
