these impurities. That most dreadful OF
all diseases, consumption, is disease OF
the blood. The disease shows in the lungs
because of some inherited or acquired weak
ness there. If the blood were always pure
and without germs, the disease would never
develop and in time weakness itself would
be overcome. Germs and impurities in the
blood hoat along through the body until
they find weak spot for Judgement Ihey
stick there and develop and people cali the
disease by the name of the organ anicteu
As matter of fact, the disease Is always
disease of the blood, and If the blood be
purified, the disease will be cured. That Is

These invitations were accepted far
and wide, and the pariOrs were filed
with friends, eager to meet the late
arrivals from India.
The meeting was opened by the
president Of the society. Mrs. II. V.
Matthews. The devotional exercises
we're led By Mrs j. NJ. Martin.
Little Miss Lucille Chase then fav-
Ored the audience with a recitation,
showing what a little girl did for mis-
siOns. This recitation was exceedingly
well rendered and, for one 50 young,
showed special talent.
In the meantime the India ladies
had arrived. They were all dressed
according To their caste, each caste in
India having different dress.
Fatima Biba was represented by
Miss Cara BOzOrth. On account of
her being one Of the very high caste
women Of Central India. she is never
allowed tO speak d single word in pub
lie, 50 Mrs. II. V. Matthews gave a
short description of her home life.
Rahimo Miss Pearl Applegate), a
Mohammedan woman, from Jagraon,
India, was next introduced. She be-
longs to the low class and, at present,
is cook for DR.. Maud Allen. A short
talk was given by her, showing the
need Of more Bible teachers.
Next, the little village girl MISS
Ida Mozier), was introduced, and in
few words told the story Of her home
life. She lives in Jagraon, India, and
is near neighbor Of DIR. Maud Allen.
Basanthor, a HindoO woman Miss
Marie Rockwell) then came forward
and told OF the wrongs and sufferIngs,
the women of Central India had to
endure.
Mrs. Ella Mcdowell sang a very
sweet solo, the words of which were
uIittcu Dy nInuOo woman,
==Dr. Maud Allen Miss HELEN Mat
thews), told of her work in India, the
past year, and also about her yaca-
tion the past summer. Her descrip-
tion of her surroundings, was very in
teresting. She gave an accurate ac-
count of the new hospital, which has
recently been built at Jagraon.
The opening of the mite boxes fol-
lowed, and special prayer for Miss
Allen. The guests from India then
served the audience with typical
India lunch, and social hour fol-
lowed.
At a late hour the company dis
spersed, feeling that they had spent
an evening long to be remembered.

With Disaster To-day.

BUTLER, Pa, August 24.-The Balti-
more & Ohio Chicago express, due in
Pittsburg at / O'Clock this afternoon,
was wrecked near Valencia station on

are probably fatally hurt; twenty pas
sengers were badly injured. ALI the
coaches and Pullman cars were well
filled. The particulars are difficult to
obtain, since the telegraphic communi-
cation is badly interrupted.

received from Butler, says the wreck to
the Chicago express was caused BY q
collision between two freight trains
which threw several cars, laden with
iron pipe and coal, from side-track
over against the express train, which
was passing at the moment. All tho
cars on the express except the mail car
were knocked from the rails and over
turned. The passengers in the day
coach were most seriously injured.

shaped her course southeast on the

minutes, the "vencedor" q full mile
behind. She put out her spinnaker,
but soon took 1t In and rounded stake
at 1:40:55, 27:15 behind the
"Canada". The wind was light, how
ever, both boats drifting, which makes
the "Veneedor'' safe on the time limit.
