his death struggles, To appeal to the Re-

ILLINOIS SURE.
"Should we carry Illinois, which from in

is absolutely assured, we could lose four or
the States making up my estimate of 20,
and still elect Mr.. Bryan; and If we carry
Indiana and Michigan we could lose the
same and still be successful.
II may say that IT is part Of the secret
history Ofthisca mpaign that until Benjamin
Harrison wasinduced, after long persuasion,
to enter the campaign in Indiana. the Re-
publican committee, from information i'll
our possession had yirtual:-' abandoned the
fight in tina state
"Thc great agricultural population OF
Iowa have been reading with great inter-
est and positive instruction the circular
sent by Republicans TO the laboring classes
along the great railroad lines OF that State,
asking them to vote against Mr.. Bryan, with
the hope that it will prevent the rise of
prices Of the farmers products; and the
State of Iowa is now tottering in the Re
publican column.
1T Is conceded that Minnesota viii elect
SIR. Lind governor upon the fusion ticket;
and who doubts, if this is true, that under
the peculiar ballot now used. it Will carry
the whole electoral ticket with it? Michi-
gan has always been and is now regarded
as safe as almost any State in the West for
the Democratic nominee.

days of Andrew jackson to stand unawed
by the Influence of corporate or financial
power, and boldly demand from the husU
iugs that the government Of the people
shall be restored to the possession OF the
people.
Mr.. Bryan will be our next President"

Then follows this piece of frankness by

organized to elect Congressman, and there
is nothing in the bylaws to authorize or
compel US to make forecasts, so we are not
going to give out an estimate. Wednesday

that there were but two districts in New

only one uncertain district in Brooklyn.
Then, too, he was equally sure that the
Democrats would carry the Elmira dis

And then, to cap the climax, Senator
Faulkner was very confident of the cleo
ton of Senator Hill as governor.
On the following day, Senator Faulkner
was equally sure that the Democrats would
control the next House by good, fair,
working majority. The South was to re-
main solid, and the West was to hold its
own. The defeat OF Wilson, Holman and
Springer was hooted.

MRS. JOE PERSON:
Dear Madam: Allow me to express
my gratitude to you for the wonderful
cure your Remedy made on my little
daughter some eight years ago. She
was afflicted with some blood impurity,
which resulted in boils and sores on the
neck These troubled her severely and
continuously for eighteen months or
more, After trying different remedies
for long time, without permanent re-
lief, friend advised me to try your
medicine. After short use of it she
began to improve, When she had ta-
ken about eighteen bottles the boils
and sores were entirely healed and
there has never been any return of
them: She seems now to be entirely
well. consider your medicine one of
the very best Blood Purifiers on the
market. Yours very truly,
J. H. WATSON.

fin Important Office.

To properly fill it's Office and func-
tions. it is important that the blood be
pure. When it is in such a condition,
the body is almost certain to be healthy y
A complaint at this time is catarrh in
some of its various forms. A slight cold
develops the disease in the head. Drop
pings of corruption passing into the
lungs bring on consumption. The only
way to cure this disease is to purify the
blood. The most obstinate cases of
catarrh yield to the medicinal powers
of Hoods Sarsaparilla a as If by magic,
simply because it reaches the seat of
the disease, and by purifying and vital
izing the blood, removes the cause, Not
only does Hoods Sarsaparilla do this,
but it gives renewed vigor to the whole
system, making it possible for good
health to re gn supreme.

A BEAUTIFUL DEATH SCENE
BY REV. F. D. SwINDELL, D. D.

a long and burdened pilgrimage,
whose dearest ties were on the
other shore awaiting his coming,
that went joyfully to sleep in
death, but a young wife and
mother, at the period when life
holds US most strongly, tenderly,
loving and fondly loved, who
went out from every earthly tie
with the gladness of triumph. And
the death scene was so beautiful
and glorious, that even to her
loved ones it did not seem a
chamber of death, but a joyous
departure on a delightful journey
flushed with high hopes and pleas
ing anticipations. And the be
reaved are sweetly comforted by
the memory of the hour, which

way, of Goldsboro, N. c., had
been from childhood a pure, gen
tie, unselfish Christian. The last
year of her life had been one of
physical aff1iction which was borne
with such resignation and Chris
tian cheerfulness, that it was but
preparing her for the near revela>
ton of the conquering power of
faith over death. During her final
illness, much weakened by disease,
she went into quiet, prolonged
sleep. Upon awaking she looked
around the room with a surprised
expression, and asked, cam l
dead?' Her sister answered, "No,
Lila, you are still with us. y
CHANGING around at the faces pres
ent, she said, eyes, you are all
here,' and greeted them as if she
had been long time absent.
Then turning to the attending
physician and her father she said,
81 have been there, but do not
speak of it, for doubters and scot
fers will say it was a vision, a
dream, and it is too sacred to talk
about, but | have been to Heaven,
and Oh, it was SO beautiful, it was
so beautiful, its rivulets. its
streams Of brilliancy! This world
is beautiful to those who love God,
but is not to be compared with
the world beyond. =
When asked if she saw her
brother who had died a few years
before, she answered, Eyes, but
all things there were not distinct,
because l had not given you all

with those around her about the
near approach of death, and when
they would give away to grief, or
appear sad, she would say, .you
must not look sad you must
look keep bright, for / am SC
happy, SO happy. y For several
hours her whole demeanor was
one of deep, quiet joyousness, and

right training of their children
now that she was going away, ad-
dressed loving, comforting words
to her parents, sisters and chill
dren, kissed them and directed
that her baby be baptized at
once. Then she fell into a quiet
slumber, from which she shortly
awoke. They raised her up on a
pillow. Looking earnestly up
ward she exclaimed, s'Life, death,
Immortality, eternity, God. God
first, God last, God in every
thing She spoke to the watch
ers, II am not afraid to die l
am of the earth, earthly, but Oh, l

you, but you can all walk it if you
will only keep close to God. You
must all be cheerful now, for l
will soon be over, there is only a
narrow stream to cross. 1t is
not all pain and sorrow. Oh, how
sweet!''
Then again she looked upward
as if gazing into the supreme
glory that illumines the eternal
city.
She listened and heard the soft,
sweet notes of the songs of the
spirit world as if they were chant
ing a glad welcome. She cried,
"Oh, the spirits in the air! What
exquisite music! If you will lis
ten you can hear it, the glory of
God is coming down on the clouds,
the light is coming. They say
they will lead me over, it is only
step. They tell me of the coming
of Christ. "Oh, Jesus, l trem-
bis at their near approach, but l
will reach thy feet,'' AS she
spoke her pale face assumed an
unearthly beauty, an indescrib-
able expression irradiated her
countenance, her eyes kindled
with supernatural brightness as if
lighted by some invisible glory,
she uttered; "Oh, the mystery,
the mystery, if l could but tell
you. His hand is upon each of
you if you could but see it. % In a
few moments she quoted the
stanza:
'There generous fruits that never
fail,
On trees immortal grow:
There ro cks and hills and brooks and
wales
With milk and honey fow.''
Then she repeated Ohe hymn:
''There is land of pure delight
and as she repeated it the spirit
seemed to gather marvellous
strength for its departure, and
raising her enfeebled hand toward
the heavens, she sang, with strong
clear voice that rose above the
sobs of those by her bedside:
"Oh, Heaven, sweet Heaven, home
of the blest,
How long to be there,
All its glories to share,
And to lean on my Saviour's breast"
The voice of the singer hushed,
the white hand gently dropped
upon the pillow; she whispered a
part Of the Lords prayer, and
said softly, "now L will go to
sleep,' and sweetly. gently, as an
infant is lulled to slumber on its
mothers bosom she fell asleep in
Jesus.
Her life's mission was ended,
and, glory crowned, she went once
again through the jewelled gates,
never to return to greet her loved
ones, but to await, amid the un-
speakable glories of the city of
God, their coming to be with her,
and with the Lord, forever.
