Missionary Will Return,

CHICAGO, March 19.-Mrs. Gates,
wife OF the we'll known Chicagoan,
who has been a missionary in
Armenia for many years, will re-
turn TO this city as soon as she can
find convenient transportation
from her present home in Hsrpgol.
Mrs. Gates became seriously i'll as
the result. OF a nervous shock on
account of the massacre there some
time ago. Friends implored her
to relinquish her determination to
remain there to continue mission
airy work. Not until recently did
she acknowledge that the task was
too exacting for her strength.
Her mother has just received a
cablegram from Missionary Agent
Peet, in Constantinople, saying
that Mrs. Gates will start home
from Harpool, April Is. She will
reach Constantinople May l. Mr.,
Moore, her brother, will sail from
New York to meet Mrs. Gates il
the Turkish capital and conduc
her to her home in Chicago.

NEW YORK, March 19.-W. w
Howard, who was sent to Armenia
by the Christian Herald, Of New
York, in September Of last year to
superintend the distribution OF
money of the Armenian fund, for
the benefit of the suffering in that
Turk-ridden country, has returned
"Of all the black spots in the
world" he said last night, "the
blacklist is the heart OF the sultan
of Turkey. 1t is he who has or
dered the massacres; who is d.
reCtly responsible already for the
death by sword and starvation Of
$4,000 persons and the restitution
of 100000 others. 1t is he who
orders the murder of men, the de-
struction of whole provinces, the
outraging OF women and the alb
duction OF young girls.
"The excuse is made that the
Armenians are in state Of revolu-
ton. The excuse is given simply
for the purpose OF hiding the real
cause of the devilish work that is
done. 1t is a crusade against
Christians and Christianity. The
Armenians are hereditary slaves
OF the Turks. The present trouble
can only be stopped in two ways,
either by the immigration Of Ar
menians to some other country, or
of the completedestruction OF the
people. At present 1 do not be-
lieve there are any massacres in
progress for the reason that the
country is covered with snow.
When May comes, then the mas
sacres will begin anew.
"There are in Armenia 100 or
more missionaries. They have dis
tributed the $4,000 raised by the
Christian Herald, and have re-
lieved much suffering.

A Leaf Caused the Trouble.

a Lea1 OauSeu tne lrOuDle,
No little diversion was caused at
st. Mary's and Houston streets
yesterday afternoon by a balky
horse. The cause of the animals
refractoriness was & dead leaf.
This horse, as we'll as his ancestors,
has been familiar with leaves on
his native hills, from his youth up.
On occasions he has been known to
chase a wind-driven leaf around a
yard, trot up to it in business
like way, humble it in the dust
beneath his feet, and then smell it
with great self-complacency. But
yesterday his tender soul revolted
at the sight OF a harmless leaf in
the middle OF the street. He gaZed
at 1t with mute establishment, and
looked reproachfully at pedestrians
as II it were zone on him." Con-
ceiving that there was some con-
nection between the insidious leaf
and the sad eyed man who was
driving a lady in the buggy
attached, he resolutely refused to
bulge. The animal could be re-
assured only by a complete separa,
ton from the vehicle, to the in,
tense disgust OF the sad.eyed indi.
vidual, who had to send his charge
home on the street car.

1t is with deep regret that we
chronicle the death of Mrs. Ella Le-
nora, wife of Mr.. Louis Kogleschatz,
which occurred at her home on West
Martin street, at 9. 80 o'clock Monday
morning. Mrs. Kogleschatz gave
birth to an infant last Wednesday
night, since which time she gradually
grew weaker until she passed away,
The child is doing well, but how sad
to think of its mother so soon passing
from it in the midst of life's bright
promises. Mrs. Kogleschatz was
born in Shepherdstown, Jan. FL, 1862.
She is a daughter of Mr.. J. D. Fay
man, who now resides in Hagerstown,
and was married in 1883. Mr.. Kogle-
schatz is member of the firm of
Kogleschatz & Son, having removed
here with his family about three years
ago to 60 into business with his
father, and has the sympathy of the
community. A husband and five
small children survive her.

up for the space taken, we issue a

We live in country of which the
principal scourge is stomach-trouble
1t is more widespread than any
other disease, and, very nearly, more
dangerous.
One thing that makes it so danger
Gus is that it is so little understood.
If it were better understood, it
would be more feared, more easily
cured, less universal than it is now.
So, those who wish to be cured,
take Shaker Digestive Cordial, be-
cause it goes to the root of the trouble
as no other medicine does. The pure,
harmless, curative herbs and plants,
of which it is composed, are what rem
der it so certain and. at the same

A DRUMMER's OBSERVATIONS
On Politics in the Coal and Lumber
Districts of West Virginia.
To the Editor Of the Herald.

To the Editor of the Herald.
One would think, to hear the Sill
verites, Mckinley would have little
show in this State, more especially
among the miners and lumbermen.
Having spent some time recently
among these people and very keenly
noted their expressions and opinions,
| am in position to give facts as
they are without any coloring. The
majority of the laboring classes are
going to support Mckinley and
Sound Money This l am sure
is a fixed fact. In Elk Garden,
German, Bayard and other small
Ter towns along the West Virginia
Central, l find few Bryan supporters
indeed they are almost to man for
KcKinley. This quite surprised me,
but in speaking face to face with these
people, | learned that they are pretty
we'll settled in one thing, and that is
that the workingman's money should
not be a nondescript fifty-three cent
dollar, but the brightest and fullest
in value of any and all that fall from
the American minis.
Going on little further, come to
Thomas, Coketon and Davis. The
people of Thomas and Coketon, are
principally foreigners and they take
little stock in politics, except they are
usually found voting the Republican
ticket. At Hendricks found quite a
number of silvermen. In fact they
predominant there. However, a cen
sus of passengers, made up largely of
this element resulted 20 for Mckinley
and I6 for Bryan, Davis is somewhat
divided upon its political preferences.
The merchants are as rule sound
money men, and the influence Of
Henry G. the towns namesake. has
something to do with few of the
people. You know the Bryanites
took him up on oneof the high noun
tains and said to him-'.all these are
yours if voting you will be with US
Henry is said to have been hattered
by the prospect of Faulkner va
cancy for U. S. Senator and has, much
to the surprise of all, fallen right in
and got on the Bryan wagon. | hope
the successful business man that he
is, will get ashaued of the company
he is keeping and let his better judg-
inent prevail. At least his best friends
think he will desert the Bryan cause
and support the sound money ticket.
1t we're eminently consistent that
he should.
