NlemOrinl StOnc,

1t is with the deepest feelings of
gratitude to the good people of the
M. 70. Church, South, that we re-
turn our heartfelt thanks to
them for the erection of the
the stone steps at the front en-
trance to the church, with one stone
bearing the name of our dear de-
parted daughter, "Ethel Mae Nc
Intosh," thereby making the steps
"memorial" monument to her
memory. We shall always pre-
serve this memorial" in our Nom
cries, as we cherish the memory of
our beloved daughter; and in our
prayers our hearts shall go out to
the projectors in fervent plea
that they may be preserved in life
and be endowed with all the bless
ings that can be bestowed upon
mortals here below May they be
spared such calamity as fell to
our lot, in the sad drowning of our
little daughter. This town and
the NJ. d. Church, South, will al
ways be held sacred by us, no
matter whore we may go.
With Gods blessing upon you

The little daughter of Mr.. Mute
Mackley and wife, is quite sick
with diptheria, at its home in the
upper part of the first ward. This
is the second case reported in
town. Our Board of Health should
take immediate steps to stamp out
the disease. One of the best places
to spread the disease is at the pub
lie school. The authorities should
see to it that no children from the
infected districts be allowed to at
tend either the white or colored
schools. The safety and health of
the children demand it.

When wear begins to exceed re-
pair in your body you are going to
fall sick. The signs of are, loss of
flesh, paleness, weakness, nervous
ness, etc. The repair needed is
food. You think you eat enough,
and yet you feel that you wear out
more tissue, energy, nerye-force,
than your food makes for you. The
difficulty is that you do not digest
enough. And this is SO serious it
is worth sitting down seriously to
think about. If you can't digest
what you eat, take few doses of
Shaker Digestive Cordial. The eff
feet of it will be to increase your
flesh and make you feel stronger.
You won't fall sick, Proof that it
is in control of your repair aPpara-
tus. It's easy enough to test this
for yourself. Take few bottles of

REPUBLICANS IN CAUCUS.

Republican members of the House
of Representatives met in caucus on
Saturday night to determine the party
policy on the the immigration question,
but because of failure to secure q
quorum, no definite action was taken.
The time was principally devoted 10
speech by Mr.. Dipgley, of Maine. The
general tenor of his advice was that the
republicans should use every endeavor
to bring about an early adjournment Of
Congress. To adjourn if possible with
in a month as soon as the appropriation
bills could be passed by both Houses.
There was considerable general legisla-
ton before Congress, Mr.. Dingley ex-
planned, but much of it would have to
be left unfinished, and perhaps the i'm
migration question would be among
those which could not be taken ur.
While he expressed his personal in
terest in the immigration bill, be
deprecated caucus rule of the house,
and recommended that the order of
business be left to the judgment of the
committee on rules. The programme
of the committee is to take up the
Notifications bill next week and follow
that with the general pension and
bankruptcy bills. For The failure of
general legislation Mr.. Dingley blamed
the Senate.
