DEAD WHITE MAN,

and | felt that for once in his life
he was telling the truth.
Twelve months ago, at
ranehman' . hut, a fcw miles from
Deswisaca, | CHANGED to come
across a copy Of the Atlanta, Ca,
| Constitution. 1t was like home
to see an American paper, and |
devoured its contents with great
| interest. What attracted my at
tention mostly, was an article de-
scribing the Miraculous cures of a
Louisville physician. In fact, they
read as much like miracles as oldS
time Bible miracles. This article
spoke of the cure Mrs. ]. A. Clark,
Jonesboro, Ca, of double curva-
ture of spine; Miss Mary Lewis, of
Galveston, Texas, Of consumption;
of Mrs. C. 4. Omber, Shreveport,
La, of a malignant fungus growth
and tumor; and of Miss Ida Head,
Ensor, Ky, of kidney and bron-
chial troubles. 1t mentioned the
remarkable cures of fifty people.
Now my wife, who is southern
woman, happened to know Miss
Head, and knew they were among
the most respectable people of the
state. Such was the impression
made upon my wife and myself,
that we were determined to start
Immediately to Louisville, and see
by the help of God if that great
healer could help me. 1t was on
the ninth day of December, 1895,

Institute, Louisville, Ky. | was
nearer a dead man than | was a

to make a professional trip to

| / felt that his work was God s
work and God was with him. My
| blood had almost turned to water,
my limbs were swelled to almost
the size of my body, my cough
was very severe, and my left lung
badly affected. DIR. Rea gave his
opinion that the chances were
greater that I would get we'll than
that would not, and that by the
help Of God he would save if he
could. You ean't imagine what
life these words gave me, for I had
been told the day before by two
prominent physicians in Cincin'

The Commissioners Have Not Received
. Copy of the Decision.
Ex-senator Henderson, with Ex-Governor
Kellogg anG a delegation of interested
property owners had an informal confer
ence with the Commissioners this morn
ing upon the subject of street extensions.
The delegation called to find out what the
Commissioners were going to do. now that
the Supreme Court had upheld the consti-
nationality of the highway act.
Engineer Commissioner Black stated that
nothing would he done by the Commission
ers until they had seen a copy Of the dect-
sion. Up to the present time they had not
been furnished with a copy of the decision,
and could not tell its scope. Generally
speaking he thought 1t might be a good
idea to have some kind of q bond bill passed
which would give the Commissioners money
enoughto condemn the property embraced
In the extension Of the streets Of the first
section.
The most important streets should be the
first extended or opened, he thought.
The hearing avai!ed little, as the Com
missioners reiterated their ignorance Of
the decision Of the Supreme Court.
A delegation from Lanier Heights, con-
sisting of Messrs. Shoemaker and Dana,
also called. hut received no assurances
from the Commissioners as to what would
be done toward correcting the extension

Navy to have the Marine Band inauRurate
the season of open-air concerts in the Pres
ident's grounds Saturday afternoon, the
otn proximo, and to be continued every
Saturday thereafter during the months of
June July. August and September.
This Is in accordance with the practice
OF previous years. The concerts always be-

Tor the season will begin at the Capitol
GROUNDS this afternoon, and concerts will
be given there every Wednesday there-
after during the summer season. Col.
Bingham has no control over the Capitol
grounds, and had nothing to do with the
bands being ordered to play there.
That was the result of an applica ton
made to the Secretary OF the Navy by the
President OF the Senate and the Speaker of

have music there once a week during the
summer season. at least while Congress is
in session.
