SILVER COMMIT
TEES ADDRESS.
Ask, Support for Bryan and
SewaIl and Campaign
Contributions.

st. Louis, Mo-, July 25.-The
national COMMITTEES of the silver
party has issued an address TO
the pubic. 1t is signed by the
committee and reads as fol-
lows:
To.the american people: In
asmuch as it has been charged
upon the national silver party,
assent led in st. Louis, that we
are a convention ofrepudiators,
revolutionists and anarchists,
we submit the following to the
cardid Judgment of the people.
In our delegations are found
veterans OF the Mexican war.
forty-nine ex confederates and
sixty-nine union army veterans
of the late war.
Of the 723 delegates attend
ing, nine are prohibitionists, 40
are populists, 146 are demo-
Gratis and 526 are republicans.
Under this composition of the
convention, we appeal to all
true patriots, without regard to
previous party utilization, to
vote for Hon. William j. Bryan
for president and Arthur Sew
all for vice president of the
United States. A result of this
election, which means the re
storation Of the free coinage Of
silver on equal terms with gold,
will be the providing thereby
of growing volume Of money,
which will tend to disseminate
rather than TO aggregate
wealth, which will relieve the
present profound depression
and replace it with an early
prosperity. Ne urge you to
unite upon this ticket as your
sole hope of escape from the
rigors of a grinding gold mono
poly. Onrs is poor mans
campaign. We therefore call
for contributions toward the
Legitimate expenses, the same
to be sent to William p ST..
John, treasurer, at 121 East
Thirty fourth street, New York.
Contributions Of 81 or more
will be regularly acknowled
ged.

containing those Southern Roots and Herbs
which an al-wise Providence has placed in
countries where Liver Diseases most prevail.
II will cure all Diseases caused by Dera5ge-
ment OF the Liver and Bowels.
The SYMPTOMS of Liver Complaint arc a
bitter or bad taste in the mouth; Pain in The
Back, Sides or Joints, often mistaken for Rheu-
mRtisn; Sour Stomach; Loss of Appetite;
Bowels alternately costive and lax; Headache;
Loss Of Memory with a painful sensation Of
having failed 10 do something which ought to
have been done; Debility; Low Spirits, thick
yellow appearance Of the Skin and Eyes, dry
Cough often mistaken for Consumption
Sometimes many of these symptoms attend
the disease, at others very few; but the LIVER
is generally the seat of the disease and if not
Regulated IN time, great suffering, wretched-
ness and DEATH viii enste.
The following highly esteemed persons attest
to the virtues of Simmons Liver Regulator:
Gen. w. = Holt, Pres. Ga ). W. K. K. Co; Rev.
]. X. Fielder, Perry, Ga; Col L. X. Sparks, Al
bany, Ca; {. Masterson, ESQ, Sheriff Bib CO.,
ga; Hon. Alexander III. Stephens.
I'VE have tested its virtues, personally, and
know that for Dyspepsia, Biliousness and
Throbbing Headache 1t IS the best medicine the
world ever saw. We tried forty other remedies
before Simmons Liver Regulator, but none gave
US more than temporary relief; but the Regu-
lator not only relieved, but cured us."-ED.

according TO letters received
here. They were landed at a
point east Of Havana. A small
band of insurgents was in wait
ing and took the arms into the
mountains. While waiting they
were discovered by a Spanish
column. The filibusters fled
into the forests and for four
days were without food. On
the fifth lay, after some had
died of heat and exposure, they
met some insnrgent scouts who
undertook to guide them to a
place of safety. Soon after this
they ran into Spanish column.
Gabriel Ofial and Louis Payroll
of Key West, John Floyd Of
Columbus, Ga, and Pearce
Atkinson, who is related TO
a Jacksonville family, were
among the killed. The names
of the other members of The
expedition eluded the Span
iards and after great suffering
reached an insurgent camp.

where tue Christian insurgents
have as much sympathy from
the Greeks as have. the Cuban
insurgents from the people of
the United States, Il does not
seem probable ma ille recent
Macedonian troubles are con-
nected with the on. breaks OF
last year along the Bulgarian
frontier, and which were
thought TO be melted by the
Macedonian central committee.
although this committee has
been active this year, having
issued a manifesto in June
stating that reform in Mace
donna by peaceful means is no
longer to be relied on and the
commute will concentrate all
their energies to obtain real
political autonomy.
The Southern tracts of Mace
donna are mainly Inhabited by
Greeks. A prominent diplomat
ist, SAID to be we'll versed in
the affairs of Eastern Europe,
aud long resident in the Bal
kan Peninsula, was recently
quoted as saying:
1T is hard to believe that
com bined action for the further
ance Of certain object could
be undertaken by the inhabi
tants of that region which is
called Macedonia. Doubtless
in various neigh borhoods in
surreclionary movements OF
more or less magnitude would
gain adherence, but such rising
will always remain as of mere
local Importance for the reason
that 1t is impossible to imagine
q combined Macedonian insur-
rection. Such movement must
invariably take place under
Bulgarian, Servian, Albanian
or Greek auspices. They will
not be so mnch directed against
Turkey, but either willtake the
form of the nationality rising
against another or number of
Others"
1t remains to be seen whether
the insurrectionary movement
under Bulgarian auspices will
make common cause with that
under Greek auspices, which
the Greek Minister of War, in
response to representation by
the powers, has promised to
take measures to suppress.

TEMPERANCE IN HOLIDAYS.
w. c. T. Z. Appeals fer Total
Abstinence on Christmas.

The WOmen'S riStianTemperance Union
helda meeting at Foundry Methodist Church
yesterday afternoon, at which the sub
jects discussed had special reference to
the use OF intoXicants during the coming
holidays. Mrs. NJ B. Platt presided over
the session and led in the devotional eX-
erciscs.
The first speaker was Hon. Elijah Morse,
who told Of the provisions OF the bill now
pending in Congress to amend the license
laws of the District, and also it's present
status. THIS bill, which was drawn hy
the Antis saloon League, will, if adopted,
50 change the present law as to make
illegal sales at retail by brewers or brew
ers agents; the employment of women or
minors in saloons; provides for the annual
consent Of signers, and immunity Of wit
nesses from prosecution by ssloonists.
The bill has been sent by the Senate com
mittee to the Commissioners for their
suggestions on the matter.
Rev. DR.. Rogers, of the Church OF Our
Father, devoted his attention to the re-
ligiOus phase of temperance reform and
insisted upon a unity of action on tue
part of the churches.
Mrs. Platt then offered the following
resolution, which was adopted by unanl-
nous vote
Resolved, That we earnestly request
of each one whom this appeal may leach
that they refrain from offering intoxi-
cants OF any kind to anyone during tie
coming holidays, especially upon New
Years Day, thus removing temptation
from the way of many, and helping to re-
lieve our blessed holiday season from
the blight of intoXication.''
Rev. Charles l.. Pate also addressed the
meeting and Mrs. Martin described the
st. Louis convention of the w. c. L. u.
after which the announcement was made
of the meeting to be held next Sunday
at the Metropolitan NJ. E. Church, by
DR.. Wilbur Crafts, to promote Temperance
legislation. Rev. Dr. Rogers pronounced
the benediction.

THE GREAT HUXLEY.
What Huxley, the Great English
Scientist, Considered the Best
Start In Life.

The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is sound stomach.
Weak stomachS fail to digest food properly,
because they lack the proper quantity pf
digestive acids tlactie ana hytlrochlnricI
and peptogenic products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases of indigestion is to axe
after each meal, one or two of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, because they supply IN
o pleasant, harmless form all the elements
that weak stomachs lack
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure every form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomarh
They increase flesh, insure pure blood,
strong nerves, a bright eye and clear com
plexion, because all these result only fIom
wholesome food well digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dyspep-
sa Tablets at 90 cents full sized package.

JESUS AS A CHILD.
Rev. Mr.. Kimball'S Eloquent Ser
mon at All Souls Church.

Rev. John c. Kimhall, OF Hartford, Conn,
preached at All Souls Church last night
upon the text, The Child Jesus" l uke,
ii:27.
The current OF human nature seems
reversed at this season OF the year. said
he. People who spend the rest Of the
year in getting all they can now seem
bent on giving away all that is i'll their
power to give.
1t is certainly a iladsome sight. But
the question i S well asked why SO much
stress should be laid on the birth of Jesus?
Why is not some later and apparently more
important period OF his life, a when he
performed some great miracle, taken as
an coca sion for celebration and Cbser-
vance?
His entrance into life as simple child
Is the best evidence of his humanity. AlI
ChTistendOm becomes humanitarian at
Christmas time, If on no other occasion.
The birth OF Christ S worthy OF all he
honor il has received. No birth OF a
planet or the Inauguration of an empire
can compare with il. All births of babies
should be and are honored and the advent
or Jesus should be recognized in i ,naifner

THE CHRIST LAW.

''T tell you, my friends, the law of

viii be the allpervading influence of the
practical religion of Jesus Christ that Will
make the change for the better.
I'VE want this practical religion not
only to take hold of what are called the
lower classes, but TO take hold of what are
called the higher classes. The trouble is
that people have an idea they can do all
their religion on Sunday with tymn-book,
and pra yer-book, and liturgy, and some Of
them sill i'll church rolling up their eyes as
though they were ready for translation,
when their sabbath is bounded on ali sides
by an inconsistent life, and while you are
expecting to come out from under their
arms the wings Of an angel, there come out
from their forehead the horns of beast.
There has got to be a new departure
in religion 1 do not say new religien
Oh, no; but the Old religion brought to new
appliances. In our time we have had the
daguerreotype, and the ambrotype, and
the photographs: but it is the same ola

ious Gospel is just what we want to pho
tograph the image of God on one soul,

Not new Gospel, but the old Gospel put
to new work.
