The congregation OF the Hickory
Street Presbyterian Church was highly
edited yesterday morning and evening
by Rev. William A. Nordt, the pastor,
who has accepted the cal to the pastor
ate. His morning discourse was on the
text, Come for all things are now

In the evning he spoke on the privileges
of the children of God. The sacred edi-
flee was filled at both services. Rev.

Membership Contest at Y. w. C. A.
A great interest is being shown, just
now, in the Membership Contest"
which was begun on Friday evening
last at the South Side Young WOmen's
Christian Association. Invitations had
been issued to the young members of
the association bidding them to sup
per on the above-named evening and,
In response, the house was filled with
a large number Of bright faces and
merry voices. The pretty and comfort
able house, of which the association
girls are justly so proud, never looked
more attractive, trimmed, as it was,
with beautiful ground-pine and flow-
ers, scarlet geraniums and chrysan-
themums. Five long tables had been
daintily laid and bOuntiful supper
provided for the guests. In addition to
the association girls. there were also
several friends of the association pres
ent, among them the president, Mrs. E.
H. Ripple, and the chairman of the
South Side COMMITTEES, Mrs. c. B Der
man. After supper Mrs. Ripple ad-
dressed the young women and opened
the Contest" which is this: The girls
were separated into two companies,
Company A and Company B, the one
under the leadership of Captain"
Kate Lewert and the other of Cap
tain" Smith. The companies work for
one month and secure new members in
the association, during which time re-
ports will be given daily as to the pro-
gress of each. At the expiration of the
month the two comDanies compare re-
suits, the one who has secured the least
number will, in consequence, entertain
the victorious company. All have en-
tered upon the campaign with enthu-
siasm and interest. but 1t is to be re.
membered always that the association
does not aim for long list of members
for the sake of numbers merely. but
that the young women of the South
Side may be brought together in close
fellowship that each shall be helpful to
the other in tn upbuilding Of noble,
Christian wOmanhoOd.

turn this morning TO arrange the de-

heavy losses, were repulsed. The
Japanese losses were small"
From Port Arthur the Central News
has this dispatch:
"A detachment of Japanese cavalry
occupied Ming Hal Chu on the morn
ing of the 18th, without encountering
opposition. Natives say that on the
9th the Chinese force at Hunhcaton
was divided into two parts. The larger
one fed toward Flu Chat Shan, and the
smaller one to Yen Tan.
ION February II, in the afternoon,
Marshal Oyama reported on the state
of affairs at Wci-Hai-Wei. He said
that proposal had been rendered to
the Japanese flagship Matsuma to sur,
render the war ships and the remain
ing forts and their armament at Wei
Hai-Wei provided the foreigners of the
military force be released under
guarantee obtained from an admiral
of a neutral power. The Japanese ac-
copied all the conditions excepting
the one concerning the guarantee and
the agreement was concluded.
Marshal OyaIna confirms the former
report of the suicides of Admiral Ting,
Commodore Liu and Gen. Chang. All
three left letters addressed to the
flagship. The garrison of Liu Kung
Tao was conducted beyond the Japan
csc line and was set free. The Chi
nese seamen will be treated in the
same manner. The foreigners who

KILLED AT A CROSSING.
An Express Train Demolishes a Street Car
One Passenger Killed.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Feb 1S.-At $40
o'clock last evening the Cumberland
express on the Baltimore & Ohio rail
road, bound for Pittsburgh, colIided
with n SecOnd-avenue electric car at a
crossing near Rankin station. There
were eight passengers on the electric
car.
Just as the car approached the cross
ing the trolley jumped from the wire.
The momentum carried the car over
the cast-bound track, but it stopped
with the rear end directly on the west
bound track. While Conductor Nc
Chan was replacing the trolley he saw
the express approaching and called to
the passengers to jump. All got ont of
the car safely, but Annie Kosack, Slav
woman, aged Is, became bewildercd, ran
directly up the track and was struck
and instantly killed by the express.
She had just landed from Hungary,
and in few moments would have
been with her waiting parents at Brad
dock. None of the other occupants of
the electric car were injured.

ELEVEN DAYS OVERDUE,
And the Steamer City of st. Augustine
VIII Probably Never Reach Port.

New YORK, Feb. 1.-THE steamer
City of St Augustine, which sailed
from Jacksonville, February ?, for
this port, is now eleven days overdue,
and there is very little chance of her
ever being heard from again.
The ship Constance, which arrived
from Dunkirk to-day, reports that on
February IL, when 22O miles southeast
of Sandy Hook, she passed through
large quantities OF new pitch pine
lumber, railroad ties and square tim
Der, covering the surface of the sea for
miles.
The length of time the City of St.
Augustine is overdue, and the fact
that her cagO was identical with the
material reported afioat in such large
quantities, goes far to strengthen the
theory that the missing steamer has
foundered.

even after the disease has progressed so
far as to induce repeated bleedlngs from
the lungs, severe lingering cough with
copious expectoTation Including tubercu-
lar matter, great loss of flesh and extreme
emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to lis as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease2 You need not take
our word for it. They have, III nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever IN mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly pTejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but vino have been forced to confess that
it Surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
q short time. Extract of malt whiskey,
and various preparations OF the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred fualadieS, have been
skilIfuIly reproduced IN a book of 100
pages which will be mailed to you, on
