Words of Kindness.

The words of kindness you often give Is "the cup of cold water to faintIng soul-- Faltering and weak, striving hard to live, Struggling onward and upward to reach the
 goal. How many along life's wayside fall, Who would rise and press on for word of
 cheer, But are wrecked, lost beyond recall, sinking beneath the proud worlds cruel
 sheer. Kindness Is the lesson Christ has given, To mortals who would the truth attain; IL makes this earth resemble heaven. And proves that life Is not in vain Tis the Christ-like spirit the spark divine, That lifts the 1aIlen and cheers the weak; spirit whose luster will far outshine The co,tliest gems that worldlings seek when you least this bread on the waters wide There are sure returns when the tides flow
 in
 May spirits of kindness always abide. To brig hten this world oI sorrow and sin.

CENTRAL AMERICA EVENTS
Correct Version of the Lynch
ing of De Witt, a Murderer,
in Guatemala.
Great Preparations Being Made for
the Exposition to Be Held
Next Year.

GUATEMALA, CENTRAL AMERICA, May
22.-There seems to be some miseoncep-
ton in portion of the American press re-
garding the lynching of De Witt at Puerto
Barrios. The facts in the case are as fol-
lows: De Witt, who had but lately ar
rived from New Orleans, sought wo rk on
the Northern Railroad; not finding any
he became quarrelsome and without the
least warning murdered the trainmaster T
of the road. He was imprisoned at the
barracks and over night a.large number OF
American citizens forced open the cell
doors and dragging out the cuIprit lynched
him.
The Guatemala Government has seen
fit to let the matter rest and no further
complications are probable,
The war in Nicaragua is finished, but
the devastation wrought will take many a
dav to repair. The Leonist generals,
Baca and Ortiz, fed TO Salvador in a
lighter and the Government of that
country is seriously considering their ex-
tradition, which has been requested by
the Nicaraguan Government.
The different States of Central America
have set to work with q will to make the
exposition to be held in Guatemala in
1897 a success. European exhibitors are
daily obtaining more space. and it is to be
hoped that the United States and its vast
manufactures and products will be well
represented. In expectation of a very
large concourse OF people many new
dwellings and hotels are going up all over
the city. Work on the Northern and six
other railroads is being actively pushed,
the construction being mostly in the
hands of Americans.
Most Central Americans are eagerly
hoping for new reciprocity treaties with
the United States in the near future.

ARBITRATION CONFERENCE
Peace Strongly Adrocuted Before the
Final Adjournment.

Fandt ddJournnent
MOHONK LAKE, n. Y, June 6.--The
Arbitration Conference adjourned last
night after declaring that in the settle
ment of personal controversies civiliza-
ton has substituted the appeal to the law
for the appeal to force, and that it is high
time for like substitution of law for war
in the settlement OF controversies between
nations.
After stating that permanent tribunal
is required to settle international contro-
versies, the declaration proceeds as follows :
The fact that during the past year the
Inter Parliamentary Peace Union, con-
tanning parliamentary representatives
from fourteen T. uropean powers has form
ulated plan for an international tribunal !;
that France has otfic tally proposed to this
country permanent treaty of arbitra-
ton, and that it is semi-officially reported
that negotiations are pending between
the United States and Great Britain for a
similar treaty, justify the belief that the
way IS now open to create between this
country and France, and perhaps with
the other powers, some permanent sys-
tenn of judicial arbitration as to the es-
sential safeguard of civilization, we
earnestly call upon statesmen, ministers
OF every faith, the newspaper and period
iLal press, colleges and schools, chambers
OF commerce and boards of trade, organ
izations OF workingmen and upon all good
men and women to exert their influence
in favor Of this moveme nt."

AGAINST THE BOND BILL.
The House Committee of HGys and Mea
So keports.

The House Committee of Ways and Mans
SO Reports.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 6.-Ding-
ley of Maine, chairman OF the Committee
on Ways and Means, presented to the
House the report of the majority mem bers
of the committee on the Senate bill ito
prohibit the further issuance of interest
bearing bonds"
The report concludes with the declara-
ton that in the present condition of the
country, with deficit of revenue and dis
trust prevailing to an alarming extent, 1t
"would be most serious mistake, not to
use a stronger term, to take away almost
the only prop that now remains for the
maintenance at par of the legal tender de-
mand notes which formed so important a
part of the currency of the United Statas.''
The bill is reported back, therefore, with
the recommendation that it do not pass,
and this conclusion the thirteen Republl-
can members of the committee indorse.
Two of the Democratic members OF the
committee, Turner and Cobb, concur with
the reverse decision, but without indors-
ing the report.

Public Buildings, Indian Affairs
and New Vessels for
the Navy.
NEW CoNFERENcEs ORDERED.
The Senate Refuses to Recede From
It's Contention in Reference
to Batt1e-Ships.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 6.-The
Senate gave its almost undivided atten-
tion to-day to conference reports on gen.
eral appropriation bills. The first that
came before it was the sundry civil bill,
where no agreement had been reached in
conference. The chief point in contro-
versy between the two houses vas as to a
number of Senate amendments for the
construction of public buildings in the
capitals of four new States-Idaho, Mon
tana, Wyoming and Utah-and for the in
crease of the limits of expenditure in
building that are being constructed in
Kansas City, Mo-, Savannah, Ga, and
Camden, N. j., all of which were resisted
by the House conferees. The Senate, how
ever, by a unanimous vote insisted upon
these public building amendments and the
bill was referred back for further consid-
Grafton.
The next conference report that came
up was on the Indian appropriation bill.
ALL points of disagreement had been set
tied in prior partial reports and there had
only remained two matters to be adjusted.
These were as to the payment of lawyers
fees on the old settlers or Western Chero-
h0G CldlIu, anu dS COutIdCb oCl4OOA0 4OL
Indian children. Both these items were
now adjusted, the first by an instruction
to the Secretary of the Interior to with
hold the fund until further legislation is
had, and the second by limiting the con-
tinuance of contract schools to the 1st of
July, 1897, instead of 1898. The conference
report was agreed to without any contest.
The third conference report was on the
naval appropriation bill. 1t was final
report, but it was disagreed to--ayes %,
noes 24-and the bill goes back for further
conference. The controversy was as to the
numoer of new battle-ships, the confer
ence compromise fixing the number at
three, ana as to the limit of price for
armor plate for these ships, the confer
ence compromise fixing the price at 1925
per ton. The contention OF the Senate
was for two battle-ships and $3.50 Der ton,
that of the House for four battle-ships and
$3.50 ton.
The Senate at 5:15 adjourned until Mon
day at noon.
