The JEWISH SOUTH.


The founder of the Buddhist faith, who fourished
IN India during the fifth century before the Christian
era, known also as Gautama and Siddartha, was in
many respects the remarkable of all the leaders
with whom we have to deal. Born under conditions
OF honor and wealth, surrounded by all that usually
constitutes happiness; gifted with powers that gave
promise of the frution of his ambition he suddenly
threw aside kindred wealth. honor and position
and without other incentive than the current of his
own irresistible impulses chose the life of an ascetic
became philosopher, and established a new faith
Nor was this attained without surrounding immune
rable obstacles .."
His incentive is best described bv quoting his own
words: II am going to establish the kingdom
or righteousness, to give light to those ensrouded in
darkness, and open the gate of immortality to men y
With this declaration he left home of affuence and
went forth to the wilderness to become q penniless
and desplsed student-a homeless wanderer It mat
tiers not that we must reject the conclusions laid
down by him, he must still be accorded the full mead
OF praise for his unsefsh devotion to a principle
which he had carved for himself in establishing one
OF the most thorough systems of ethics ever evolved
by human mind. In doing this he laid down four
great truths
l. Misery always accompanies existence
Z, All modes of existence result from passion or
desire.
5. There is no escape from existence except by de-
struction of desire
4. This may be accomplished bv following the
tourfod way of Nirvana
10 keep pace with this system of philosophy we
must elevate our minds to the Hottest pinnacle of
ethical thought soaring SO high that the clouds of
doubt and almost refuse to be dispelled AT
this he1ght Gautama aims to teach that through
series OF eth1ca truths man arrive state of
purity by escape from a. ali evil desires, (2) from
ignorance and doubt, 90 from heresy (4) from un-
kindness and vexaton. Right actiolls saws he
spring from pure mind and the topstone of all is
!" UNIVERSAL Charity Let us follow Gautama a lit
tie further All philosophy taught by him includes
the undesirabity of existence Existence is not
merely life, but death itself is relief unless the ndi
v1dual obtain MrVana for the belief in transmipra
ton 50 commingled in this philosophy that the in
dlWoual existence IS doomed ever to continue some
other torn after death So it BECAME neceSsar,1 .

The Glorious Sixteenth.

Mexicaus celebrate Septenb Der 10Th
much as the Americans celebrate the
Fourth of July. About midnight of
Wednesday at Lordsburg, they fired a
salute. Not having a cannon they Sc
cured supply of giant powder, cut the
sticks in two, put in short fuse and
touched them off. This made very
good substitute for artillery. Simon
Testado, one of the patriots had a little
too much American whiskey inside
him, while firing the salute, and met
with serious results. He had half a
stick of giant powder in his hand,
wrapped in a piece of gun"y sack, and
the fuse burning. He seemed reluctant
to let go of the powder and one of his
friends yelled at him to drop it. In
stead OF doing this he clung to the pow
der and began declaiming about his
strength and courage. The powder ex-
ploded and most of his hard went with

and thinks he can save Testado's life,
although there are some doubts of it.

Validity of Texas Bonds.

H Il. LOckett, an attorney of Austin,
Texas. and candidate for attorney gen
eral of the state, will leave in day or
two for St. Louis, Chicago, New York
Boston and Milwaukee, for the purpose
of ascertaining the number of Texas
county and municipal bonds held by
the investment, bond and security COM
panies of these cities, with a view of
compiling and securing a correct state
ment of the amounts held in order to
present substantial argument favor
ing the valuation of such bonds as
were illegally issued and are thought
to be void on a techuicality.
Mr.. Lockett, believes that the hold
ers of these bonds should be paid &C
cording to contract, and he says he has
faith in the honesty of the peOole of
Texas and believes that if the matter
is properly presented to them that the
legislature will be instructed to submit
a constitution al amendment validatin g
the bonds bought and sold in good
faith. Nothing, he adds, could be more
harmful to the credit of the state of
Texas than to permit the reputation
OF millions of dollars of her bonds, on
which she received face value.
The bonds that are thus affected are
those which were issued prior to the
bond law of 1893, which required the
scrutiny of all bonds by the attorney
general.

THE philosophical president of Mex

the recent unaccountaole depression in

factors in that decline as purely arti6-

since silver has sunk to the level of a

THE Zuni Indians of New Mexico
still cling tenaciOusly to the Christian
doctrine contained in the 18th verse of
the XXI chapter of Exodus, which
WAS taught to them three centuries
ago, aud the government is likely soon
to lunish them for their persistence in
the enforcement of that doctrine. The
Zunis are as pertinacious in the en-
forcement of that law of Moses as wei e
the Puritaps of Salem in the good old

BABY's SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter.
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofua Sores.
"At the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more anotbe scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. l also took Hoods
Sarsa parilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsa parilla, for which 1 feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
tcine." Mrs. S. s. WRoTEN, Farming

THE statistics OF the cotton crop for
last year show it to have been 1851, 964
bales. 1t has been sold for about 5 90
100000. or something more than the
total volume of the greenba curren-
cy. This is more than five times the
value of the annual silver product of
the country. What folly is it then for
cotton-growers to think that their
prosperity depends upon ''doing some
thing for silver" when all the silver
produced in the country would not buy
one in five of their cotton bsles!-N. Y.

historical Records of Maryland.

In speaking of the records of the
provincial court of the province of
Maryland, from 1867 to the revolution,
now preserved in Anne Arundel county,
the Baltimore Sun says: 1.-THE historical
value OF these old records is inestimable.
1t Is believed that no other state in the
union has such records of family his
tory showing the manner of living
among the people of the colony as far
back as $50 years ago. In the wills,
families can be traced back from father
to son for a century. The court record
books containing inventories of per-
sonal estates make a complete exhibit
Of the character Of household furni-
ture, kitchen implements, farm uten-
sils, etc., used by the early settlers and
their descendants during the first CEN
fury and a half of the colony. From
these things we can read much of the
habits and customs of the people"

There were 83 members in the
Calumet branch of the Port Huron

above referred to. The fact
that Baraga branch has a
member who was transferred

for itself, as he was one of the num-
Der of Calumet branch. There were
nine members of the Northern Mich
igan Building and Loan Association,
of Hancock, who withdrew their
stock or loan and went into the
Building and Loan association of
Port Huron, and for reference the
public OF Baraga county is referred

men in different building and loan

to detect it, and any question that
may arise concerning the promises
to be fulfilled, will be explained
