Here is a letter from the pastor of
the most influential church in South
Baltimore, that every truth-seeker
should read carefully.
Every disheartened sick person and
every man or woman who has lost
faith in the remedies he or she has
tried because none of them has done
any good-every one who is sick ought
to be cheered up and filled with new
hope and determination by the letter
written by Rev. William T. Bailey,
pastor of the Curtis Bay Church, the
most influential church in South Balti-
more.
On March 81, 1896, the Baltimore
Sun, under display headlines, pub
lished the following news of Rev. Mr..
Bailey's affection:
"Rev. VIM. T. Bailey, pastor of the
Curtis Bay Baptist church, was para
lyzed in the tongue while preaching
Sunday night, and lost the power of
speech. The congregation was at once
dismissed, and DIR. was called.
He said Mr.. Bailey was suffering from
severe attack of nervous prostration
caused by hard study and overwork,
and that he must have rest and quiet. !"
The whole city was shocked. The
papers soon began to record an improve
ment.
On April 10, 1896, the following open
letter was addressed to the proprietors
of Paine's celery compound:

There is a long article in the Silver
Knight, signed by senator St"ar>
which closes as follows:
Why are the Japanese more re-
spected and more highly appreciated
than the Chinese? SimT'lY because
the japanese will hsht ari the Chi
nese will not. We have other marked
examples in our own tim of the eff ct
of great physical conflicts uptn he

German that is not a more s~elf-re-
specting and a more respected man

he was before that memorable conflict?
Where is the American who was not
enobled by the val of independence?
And where is the citizen Of the North
or of the South, who pore an honor

sections, who is not regarded more
highly by all parties than those who

dice and discuss impartially the bene-

Of physical strength and proves in
all the popular games in which the
people indulge, and not single out
one game and one state upon which
to pour out their Walls of hypocritical
wrath, we would never have alluded

suggest in conclusion that when the

other arts of civilization will become
extinct.

GOVERNOR TELLS A STORY.

This recital brought a story from Gov
ernor Mount. A number of years ago the
Farmers Detective Company. of Montgom-
cry county. traced a team stolen In that
county TO Ripley where it had been hidden
by family named White. The father and
his two sons were doctors and the family
was accounted eminently respectable. but
investigation showed that they made reg
ular business Of taking care OF stolen stock.
The Indianapolis journal., 1897-09-16

of the director of the mint for fun con-
hrmation of this statement.
In the first six months after the Bland
bill became a law February, 1879 the gov
ernment purchased no less than 1925, I0l. 80
fine ounces, at a cost of $21 .057 1868. Ian av-
erage cost of 11T.47 cents per ounce fine.
The directors report for the year 1879 says:
AT the date of passage of the (Bland) act
the price of bar silver was about 55 pence
per ounce, British standard From that
date. O'eb. 20 the price. declined until It
reached 1872 pence, in October. 1t
will be seen that the expectation entertained
by many that the reconciliation of the sill
yer dollar would be followed by an appre-
citation in the value of silver has not yet
been realized" And it has not yet been
realized, although the government since the
date of that report has bought we have
stated, more than 13 GOO tons of silver, and
has taken it out of the market and stored it
in vaults; but the price has fallen TO con-
siderably less than half what the silver cost
the government. Assuming that free COIN
age of silver had triumDhed, the farmer
would now be compelled to accept whether
he liked it not, silver dollars not equiva-
lent to the Bland dollars. for they would
be minus the guarantee of the government
to keep them equal in value to gold dollars;
and all the profit which the farmer will now
make on the hundred million bushels of
wheat to be sold for gold would have been
swallowed up in the loss on silver. These
are plain facts for farmers.

SANTANA POSTS RELIEVED.
Rebel Indian Tribesmen Dispersed
with Field Guns.

SIMLA, Sept. 15.-The operations of the
troops under the command of Gen. Yeat-
man Biggs undertaken for the purpose of
relieving the Samana posts, have been en-
tirely successful. The police post at Sara
ghari has been recaptured by the British
forces, the troops carrying the position by
assault. Fort Lockhart was relieved on
Tuesday morning and Fort Gulistan was
relieved the same evening. The field guns
which, upon this occasion, were brought
into action, have a range of 5000 yards,
and were so effectively handled that they
scattered the enemy investing Fort Gulis-
tan. The tribesmen did not oppose the ad-
vance of the troops under Gen. Yeatman
Biggs, whose deadly artillery and Lee-Met-
ford rifle first sent them in full retreat.
Fort Gulistan was hard beset when the
reinforcements arrived. A large force of
Afridis had advanced TO within four hum
dred yards of the fort. General Yeatman
Biggs left a regiment of Punjab infantry
and two guns at Fort Gulistan before re-
turning to Fort LOckhart.
Eighty-one Shinwaris, who formed part
of the garrison of Fort Lundf-kotal, in the
Khyber pass, and who were captured by
the Afridis, have arrived at Jamrud with
their rifles.
General Blood's column is steadily adj
vancing through the Mohmads country.
The Haddah Mullah is reported to be at
Gondab with a gathering Of tribesmen.
General ElleSs column of troops has
reached the top of the Karppas deffle, but
the enemy has not been sighted in that di-
rectiOn.
