 Six years ago a New York Ceylon tea company said that Ceylon tea was twice as strong as Japan tea. It was so then-such Japan tea as Americans drank.
 But the Japanese drink better tea, and they want you to drink it too. Nothing stands in your way but your own indifference and the American tea-colorers in Japan, whose interests are not yours.
 Three years ago the Japan CSC gave a big tea-exhibit at the Worlds Fair. Those who tasted tea there tasted Japan tea as the Japanese drink it delicate, aromatic. inspiring.
 And now the Japanese tea growers are sending you their best-pure Japan tea, young tender leaves, uncolored, un- adulterated, delicate, strong money-back tea-SeAiIkings Besk.

DULL DAY IN CONGRESS.
The Deficiency Bill Passed the Senate, Sharply lncreased-The House Worked on
 the Alcohol Rebate.

Washington, May 25.-The last of the general appropriation bills (the deficien- cy bilD engrossed the attention of the senate today. As reported from the ap- propriations committee 1t covered items aggregating about $90OO,OOO, about twice the amount that it carried when 1t came from the house. In its progress through the senate today the aggregate was still further increased by the appropriation of over $1, 1,0O0,000 for findings of the court of claims under the Bowman act.
 At first there appeared to be a purpose on the part of MT. Butler to antagonize 1t with his own bill, prohibiting the issue of United States bonds without the con- sent of congress, but he yielded to the appeal of MT. Hale to allow the defi- ciency bill to be disposed of and of the bill appropriating $174. .445 for the Choteau claim in building an iron steam battery in 1864, so as to leave the way clear for the consideration of the bond bill.
 Several propositions requiring unani- nous consent were made to have day and hour fixed for taking the vote on

---------------e - HON. w. RRXAN.

The Little Rock Tribune pays the fol- lowing just tribute to the Hon. w. J. Bryan, whose eloquent appeals for silver are remembered by thousands who heard him here and at Mobile and Anniston
 Young, superb, coming from the geo. graphical center of the nation, his record clear and unambiguous. he stands today the embodiment of Young America in this great struggle for the emancipation of the common people, and he is their idol. Without forwardness, but by his own in- herent force, and because men instinc- lively recognize the fitness of 1t, he has by common consent been pushed into the position of a leader in the front rank. The very treason of the administration in his own state, aimed, as it has been, to over
 come and break him down, proves to be one of his great test clements of strength
 and IS so recognized by the masses of all parties. Both as to the tariff and as to the money question he has been recog- nzed throughout the nation as our in- vincible leader. He belongs to no locali- ty. He is claimed by the nation. His nomination would not only be claimed by Nebraska, but by Illinois, his birth place. Beyond question his nomination would paralyze. opposition in all branches of the reform forces and produce such union as would point to an overwhelm- ing triumph. His record is without blem- ish, either politically (and especially along the lines of the present issue) or personally, and his private life and con duct is so pure and clean as to challenge the respect without provoking the oppo- sition of any element of society. One of the most remarkable features about his character and record is that one so young should have been so tried in the furnace without the smell of fire and be raised up now, as if by providence, so fully equipped to be the leader in this trying time. The only objection that has been raised has been his youth, but that youth gives him the magnificent physical strength so much required for service and notwithstanding his 36 years he has the elements of power in the contest which no older man possesses. Pitt was chancellor of England at the age of 29.'

OLD UNCLE JERRY IS DEAD.
Seed Time and Harvest Came and Went 133 Times While He Was on Earth.
 Peaceful End.
Piedmont Inquirer.

Piedmont Inquirer.
 Everybody for forty miles around Pied
 mont knew Uncle Jerry Aiken, the 133- year-old negro who lived at Spring Gar den, five miles above this city, and they will hear with tlnge of sadness of the good old mans demise, which occurred on Monday of this week. He was in his 134th year.
 Jerry Aiken was one of the few men
 over 100 who had proof of his extreme age. There can be no doubt that the age given is nearly, if not exactly, correct. Before the war he was owned by the father of Capt. J. A. Bale of Rome, Ga. Captain Bale, who is now over 70 years of age, counts among his earliest recollec- tions the figure of "Old Uncle Jerry," then an old man about the place. After the war, when the slaves were freed, the former owner of Jerry gave him life in- terest in lot of land, little thinking that the old man would live more than a few years at the utmost.
 Jerry Aiken was picturesque and original character, and we shall never again gaze on his like. On the wall of the Inquirer sanctum hangs five pictures of Uncle Jerry" taken about a year ago. They are parts of a series taken just be- fore Uncle Jerry was taken to the Att lanta exposition by MT. Jeff Stewart and associates of this city to be exhibited as the "Only one of the kind on earth. He stands before the door of his log cabin, which looks almost as old as himself. His face is as black as charcoal, while his hair Is as white as snow. His clothing consists of a cotton shirt, pair of pants which he has been wearing for forty years, and string serves as sus- penders. By his side Is his constant com panion-a very large and snarling econ. The pictures show very few wrinkles on the old mans face, and he has look of peace and happiness which passeth all understanding. Perhaps no man has lived on the earth since the day of Me- thuselah who has experienced more joy and contentment and fewer troubles and trials than this simple negro, who was a slave for the major portion of his life. The old man was tenderly cared for during his last days, and wanted for nothing. He was buried on Tuesday, and many of his friends, both white and black, attended the funeral
 Peace to his ashes.
