An EXCELLENT LIKENESS.
Modelling Mr.. Mckinley's Head I'm Wax
for the Prcsident's Medal.

Tor the Presfdent's Medal.
President Mckinley today gave sittings to
Mr.. c. E. Barber, chief engraver of the
United States mint at Philadelphia, who is
engaged in the preparation of a die for use
in striking off medals of the President in
order to complete the series of such medal
lions. Mr.. Barber came over from Phila-
delphia this morning and was taken to the
White House and introduced to ths<Presi-

kinley in wax preparatory to engraving it
on a die from which the medals will be
struck. 1t was modelled from a, recent pho
tograph and shows a profile view of the
familiar features of the President. Those
who have seen it pronounce it an excellent
likeness.
The President and Mrs Mckinley were
entirely satisfied with it, and today's SIT
ablins the artist to make such finishing
touches as he might deem necessary to the
perfection of the medallion.
A similar course has been followed with
every President since Washington. These
presidential medals are used for various
purposes and single pieces can be obtained
at the mint on the payment of S. There
Is big profit In these transactions for the
government, inasmuch as the actual cost of
the medals Is about 10 cents each, exclusive

extra expense, as the work is part of the

FATHER KNEIPP lss DEAD
Discoverer of the Water Cum Passes Away
at Woerishofen.
Educated for the -Priesth00d, but lat
ter Part of His Life Naa De-
voted to Healing.

MUNICH, June 1T.-The Rev. Father
Kneipp, known throughout the world for
his water cure, who has been suffering for
some time past, died at Woerishofen this
morning.
Father Sebastian Kneipp was born in
the Bavarian village of Ottobeurn, about
seventy-fve years ago. He was the son of
weaver. He was educated at the Catho-
lie Hospital in Ausustborg, where he at
tracted the attention of the bishop of Au-
gustborg, who obtained permission to edu-
cate him to the priesthood.
Sufferer From Nervous Prostrntion.
When sixteen years old he was attacked
with nervous prostration and returned to
the hospital. There, III an old book, he
read an article on the efficacy of cold wa
ter as a cure for disease. He began ex-
periments in his own case ard eventually
effected cure. When twenty-five years
of age he entered the priesthood and was
sent to. the church of his native town.
where he remained nine years, and, in adj
dltlon to attending to his priestly duties,
Practiced the wafer cure ind met with
considerable success.
Some forty-two years ago ne was trans
terred from Ottobeurn to Woerishofen,
near Munich where he continued to heal
the SICK by cold water cures and attract
ed much attention.
In 1889 he wrote a book detailing his
tneory, and since that time his name and
MS methods have become familiar through
out the world. By permission of his bishop
ne gave up his duties as priest, and.
with the assistance of three other priests
devoted all his time to healing the sick
No Charges Were Made.
No fixed charges were made, and the volun-
tary contributions of those who had been
benefited paid for the construction of a
sanitarium at Woerishofen in 1880, capable
Of accommodating about 600 Children. In
the following year a second and a third
building were erected, large enough to ac-
commodate 1,2OO priests and sisters for the
church. In 1894 accommodations for 800
leperS and 1000 general patienta was
added. By this time the revenues of the
san1tarium had so increased that they en-
r1ched the church and also greatly bene-
fitted Woerishofen. The town. was pro-
vided with electric lights, splendid sys-
tenn of water works and many, other mod
ern improvements.
Treated Distinguished Pa4feats
Father Kneipp has treated many distin-
guished patients, including the Emperor of
Austria, the Archduke Joseph of Austria,
the Archduke Augustin of Austria, several
members of the Rothschild family and the
pope.
Last year, it is estimated, about 1000
people were treated by Father Kneipp and
his assistants. $

Recent Conferences of ReDublicnn N

and Democratic Senator'S.
Conferences have been going on between
republican md democratic senators with a
view of securing an agreement which will
make more speed with the tariff bill Moth
ing definite has yet been agreed upon, but
the republicans are hopeful that an under
standing may be reached. The republican
senators have suggested that time be al
lotted for various schedules, and after the
time has been consumed that there shall be
vote. In this way the consideration of
different schedules could be determined and
some conclusion reached as to when the
bill would pass. The republicans believe
that great deal Of time could be saved
thereby.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more gem orally needed, when the languid ex- hausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of tonic and alteratiye is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often ayerted long and perhaps fatal bilious levers. No medicine will act more surely incounteracting and free ing the system from the malarial poison.

The South Dakota Soldiers Home is
the graDdest institution in the state.
The roll shows 170 members, some Of
whom are absent on furlough, ana this
number is likely to be increased to two
hundred during the next winter. The
soldier patriots Of the nation, represent.
ing many states, are well taken care Of.
Gov. Lee promised the Grand Army
boys at Pierre last winter, during the
big camp fire that the Soldiers Home
would receive his special care, and that
the members Of the Home would receive
everything required for their comfort.
The board of commissioners as now con-
stituted are: Col. E. E. Clough, presi-
dent, Dead wood; Hon. A. L. VanOsdel,
secretary, Mission Hill; Hon. Harvey
Gunderson, treasurer, Yankton; Judge
Palmer of Sioux Falls, and Col. o. E.
Dewey OF Watertown. These gentlemen
have the interest of the veterans at heart.
The Home costs the people Of the state
very little, as the national government
pays into the state treasury one hundred
dollars per year towards the support of
each member of the Home, which
amounts to about two thirds of the state
appropriation.
The business of the Home is conducted
on strict business principles, and daily,
t:i-monthly, monthly and quarterly re-
ports are made to the national board Of
management Of which Gen. W. B. Frank
lin is president. The reports and details
of management of each state home is
very similar and as strict as the reports
required from the officers OF the regular
army. Under the new rule adopted by !
the national board, officers of the Home
rank as Colonel-Commandant, Adjutant
and Surgeon rank as Majors, and the
Quartermaster as Captain. and are re-
quired to wear uniforms, which resem.
bles the undress uniform of the regular
army.
