COLLEGE NOTES.

For the second time this term our
Institution has suffered bereavement.
Death has taken another. of our bright
es, and best students. Miss Jessie
Sr' III, daughter of Judge John Smith
of Johnson City, of the class Of '9S.
About four weeks ago she was taken
i'll with the Typhoid fever. No grave
fears were apprehended concerning
her condition until a few days ago
when her father was sent for. The
summons came to her at half past two
Tuesday morning. She had given
her heart to her Master in early life
and was not afraid to go.
The funeral services were held in
the College chapel and were conducted
by DR.. Boardman. The Scripture
read was a portion of the fifteenth of
first Corinthians. He based his re-
marks upon the words found in Rev.
Citations, first, fifth and sixth. 1t was
avery impressive service. Miss Smith
was known to all as an exemplary
Christian, and worker in the Y. w.
c. A.; as faithful, energetic, intel.
lectual student, whose class work was
faultless; as well as prime favorite In
the social life of the College. She
was carried in to the chapel by mem.
bers Of her class, attended by the Sen
Tors, Faculty and representations o.
the other classes. At the close of the
services the entire student body Of the
College followed to the depot, the re-
mains Of one who through the years O
college work, had commanded theil
respect their esteem and their love
DR.. Boardman accompanied the fun
eral party to Jonesboro on Tuesda,
evening.
The regular meeting Of the Y. M
C. A. was held in the chapel Sabbatl
afternoon. Mr.. Lyle conducted tn

looking forward to the annual reviv;
that they may do aggressive work.
Rev. Silsby entertained at his hon
Thanksgiving night, a number of gel
tlemen from Memorial Hall. Their

Grabs Cause Interstate Trouble.

The soft crab causes a good deal Of
trouble at this time Of the year between
the states of Maryland and Virginia.
One of its peculiar tricks is to leave it's
favorite lair at Crisfeld in Maryland
and wander off into the neighboring
state, the crabbers, of course, following.
1t is then that Virginia gets out her
guns and begins to burn powder. Re-
cent dispatches report heavy firing, and
it is all probably on account of the mi
gratory crab
Governor O'Ferrall of Virginia is no
less an admirer and champion of the
crab than he is of Grover Cleveland,
and he is said to have declared recent
ly that he will protect the crab which
seeks the shelter Of the Old Dominion
at all hazards, even if he has to depop-
ulate Crisfeld in order to do it. Thus
the soft crab may be said to become a
hard case. The Baltimore American
questions whether this would be fair.
1--WE allow the Virginians, says the
champion Of the Maryland crabbers, "to
come up here and make all the money
and hold offices and lord it over us in
general, and the Virginia authorities
might at least permit US to have few
soft shell crabs in return. We are be-
ginning to think that Virginia is get
ting selfish over the shellfish. New

Strange Career of the New Governor {
Alaska.

Strange Career of the New Governor of
Alaska.
John Green Brady of Indiana, recent
ly appointed governor Of Alaska, has
had an interesting and romantic career.
10 the best of his knowledge he is ma
tive OF New York city. He never knew
his parents nor the name they gave him,
If any. He grew up veritable street
arab Ill the utmost poverty. In 1860 he
was sent to Indiana with a carload of
waits as miserable as himself.
The Car reached Upton, a county
seat 30 miles north of Indianapolis,
and number of the youngsters were
committed to the care of residents.
Judge John Green, a prominent citizen
of the place, called for the "ugliest,
raggedest and most friendless'' in the
lot. Jack, as he was afterward known,
was promptly presented, and at first
the judge, appalled, at so much misery
in bulk, was inclined to go back on his
demand, but finally took the lad home
to Mrs. Green. She was out of patience
with her husband for his action, but
the absolute restitution of the boy ap-
pealed to her, and she got down to the
real boy by process Of thorough clean
ing. After the examination she thought
she might learn to like him, and Jack s
new life began.
He appreciated his home and the
kindness of his benefactors, and dill
gently applied himself to study, prov
ing himself capable and efficient. A
course at the public school was follow
ed by year at Waveland academy,
well known preparatory institution,
and that by four years at Harvard. He
had determined to be a preacher, and
after he had been graduated at Cam
bridge he was sent by Judge Green to
England to pursue his theological stud
les Returning to Upton in 1876, the
next year he went to Alaska as mis-
sionary under the auspices of the Pres
byterian church, and he has since re-
manned there. His interest in the field
was not confined to his missionary la
bors, and in 1881 he visited the United
States, displaying specimens of its gold
and silver ores and telling marvellous
stories of its natural resources. AS a re-
suit of his talks there was a large in
crease of the population of the territory,
capitalists and prospectors being attract
ed by his enthusiastic descriptions Mr..
Brady contributed largely to the reports
of the census of 1890 respecting Alaska,
and in the Harrison administration
served as commissioner Of the territory.

Gin and the Missionary.

The latest figures for gin and rum
importations into barbarian Africa
would lead one to think that the church
was not teaching total abstinence to
the natives. In Gambia %, 368 gallons
were received in year; in Sierra Le-
one, 242,6S6; in the Gold Coast,
1902, 500; in Lagos, 1868, 631, and in
the Niger Coast protectorate, 1900, 1853.

of course, the same countries that send

The saddest Thought.

When commencement day Is over
And has new dploma signed,
Then the senior thinks with sadness
OF the things he's left behind.
Yet not this or any sorrow
Half so much weighs down his mind
As the thought forever with him
OF the bills he's left behind.

He is now Cured, and He Thanks God
and P. P. P, Lippman's Great REM
edy. Fnr II

Mr.. George Briggs, of Moore, OKLA,
suffered almost indescribable torment
for three long years. Neuralgia held
him captive. The right side of his face
was SO badly affected that the slightest
touch would cause the unfortunate
man intense agony. For several weeks
he could open his mouth just wide
enough to be fed with liquid nourish-
ment, and in this manner life was sus-
tanned. Read the following extract
from his letter: ''Truth is stranger
than Fiction"
NEURALGIA, CATARRH AND RHEUMA-
TISM COMPLETELY CURED.
George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma,
writes that P. P. P, Lippman's Great
Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial
neuralgia and rheumatism, after three
years of intense suffering. The pain
lay in his cheek bone and temple, down
the right side of his face, along his
upper lip, and from the slightest touch
he suffered agonies forweeks at time.
Could only open his mouth wide enough
to admit teaspoon, and any acid in
his food would put him in torture. He
had consultation of the best physi-
clans in Texas, but all to no purpose.
Catarrh and rheumatism were also
causing him much trouble, until he
tried P. p. P. He says he is well and
will swear that there are no cases of
neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism,
no matter how chronic or how old the
cases are, that P. P. P. will not make
total cure of.
Mr.. Briggs winds up his testimony
by saying he thanks God and our med
icine, P. P. P, Lippman's Great Rem
e6y, for the great cure.
Kidney troubles, if neglected, bring
about serious and painful and very
often fatal results. P. P. P. removes
the irregularities, and cures the dis
eased parts.
Dyspepsia and Indigestion, skin and
blood diseases, can be speedily removed
by 2. P. P, Lippman's Great Remedy.
Ladies, take p. P. P. and rid your
face of pimples, blotches, freckles,
yellow or muddy skin, wrinkles and
vulgar redness.
