James O'Malley, Union war veteran,
who served in Company /, Fifty-thlrd Hi

farm in Cherokee County, Kansas, for the
past twenty years said 10 a reporter recently:
a. / was afflicted with stomach trouble for
five years and during that time | suffered in

pain me so that | could scarcely endure it.
/ sought the advice of several good physi-
clans but the relief i got from them was
short lived, for in few days the old trouble
would return.
81 began TO lose hope of ever being cured
and felt utterly discouraged. About this
time friend urged me to try DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. As | had taken
SO many remedies without receiving any
benefit | had grown skeptical, but as my
friend became SO urgent | decided to give
the pills a trial, with little hope, however,

MANHATTAN, Kan, Oct. 23.-AstOn-
ishing disclosures of the prevalence of
tuberculosis among the cattle of Kan
sas were made by experts in the pres
ence of 1000 people at the Kansas
state agricultural college yesterday.
Tests were made by DR.. Law, professor
of veterinary science in Cornell uni
versity, and t. A. Geddeys, special ex-
pert from the bureau of animal indus
try at Washington. Eight valuable
animals we're slaughtered in public and
complete postmortem examinations
made. Every animal was in the adj
vanced stages of the disease. To-day
six more cattle were killed. The IA
head had responded to the tuberculine
test. and the slaughter of the animals
in public was to satisfy the people that
the test was absolutely correct.

1t is thirty-three and one.third
years yesterday since the First Pres
byterian church of lola was organized,
and the event was properly celebrated
by the pastor, Rev. w. l.. Squier,
who gave a history of the church and
its auxiliaries, accompanied by apprO-
pirate remark and comment. AS a
valuable contribution to the history
of lola, the REGISTER prints in full
the historical part of Mr.. Squier's adj
dress, so that it may be made a matter
of permanent record. 1t may be that
the perusal of this sketch will remind
some old settlers of something of in
terest or Importance not noted here,
and if so the REGISTER will be very
glad to have them write it down and
send it to US. The following is Mr..
Squier's sketch:
The First Presbyterian church OF
lola, Kan, was organized June oath,
1864 in a grove on Deer Greek, three
and one-half miles northwest of the
present site Of its building by Rev. E.
X. Lynn, Rev. Austin Warner, and
elder John NJ. Evans, of the Carlyle
church. ABOUT twenty persons were
enrolled as charter members, two OF
whom. Mrs. Sarah A. Terrill and Mrs.
Susan Post, are still connected with
the church, the latter being the only
one of continuous membership. John
Mcclure and John \. Covert were the
first elders and were installed July Is,
1864. After the organization, services
were held in Iola-then a village of
about $50 population-in the public
school building on the southeast
corner of West and State streets, and
later, in the court house on the north
side of the public square on Jackson
avenue. The first church building
was completed in the spring of 1868 on
the present site, and was rebuilt in
1891, being rededicated Dec. 6, of that
year.
Rev. E. K. Lynn was pastor of the
church until in 1869. Rev. H. w.
Stratton from October 1870 to January
1873. Rev. J. w. Pinkerton was in
stalled in March 1873, and died Feb.
u, 1875. Rev. s. 6. Clark took charge
in the following July and retired in
April 1878. Rev. E. s. Miller became
pastor Feb. 8, 1879 and resigned in
May 1886, a period of seven years and
three months, the longest passionate
in the history of the church. Rev. w.
81. Hyatt was pastor from May 1887
to October 1891. The following year the
church was supplied by Rev. Johnston
McGaughey. The present pastor,
Rev. w. L. Squier, began to serve the
church on Feb. u, 1898, and was in
stalled on May 8, by the Presbytery
of Neosho.
Fifteen persons have serN Led as
elders of the church. The present
session consists of William Davis. E.
1. Crowell, c. w. Mcneil. l.. c.
Munger and David Ewart. Sixteen
persons have served as deacons, the
present board consists of j. w. Della
