Da, Lewis Il. Hite preached both
morning and evening Sunday in the New
Jerusalem Mission Room, NO. 1l-2 west
Marshall street. two sermons based upon
The sixteenth and seventeenth chapters
~ the Gospel OF John. The text IN the
morning was And for their sakes /
sanctify Myself. that they also might
be sanctified through the truth -Johh
xvii. 10.
The sermon in the evening brought to-
co,her the PROMISES of the Holy Ghost,

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
q diseased condition of the kidneys
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire.
quent. desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney rem
edy fulflls every wish in relieving
pain in lie back, kidneys, liver, b1ad-
der and every part of the urinary pas
sages. It corrects inability to hold
urine and scalding pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that I'M
pleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times during the night
to urinate- The mild and the extraor-
binary effect of Swamp Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists, price so cts and 81. For a sam

Indian Appropriations.

Washington. April 23.-The
House to-day completed the
consideration of the Senate
amendments to the Indian APP
preparation bill and sent the bill
to conference. The main conten.
ton. as on yesterday, conferred
about the same proposition to
open the Uncompahagre Indian
reservation under the mineral
land laws. Finally, an amendmen t
was recommended to the effect
that no corporation should be
allowed to obtain poss ssion of
these gilsonite deposits, but that
the Government should lease the
lands in limited areas aud for
limited terms of years. The Sem
ate amendment striking from the
House bill the provision for the
ratification of the oil and gas
leases made by the council of the
Seneca Indians last December,
after a sharp debate, was dis
agreed to. Mr.. Bland. of Mis-
souri,. attempted early in the
session to secure action on the
resolution relative to the Union
Pacific railroad mortgages which
he tried to offer last week, but
the Speaker ruled that the re-
solution was not privileged.
A resolution was adopted by
which a committee of twenty
Eve, of which the speaker by. the
terms of the resolution was
chairman, was appointed to at
tend the dedication Of the Grant
tomb in New York, on Tuesday,
and the House agreed 10 a pro-
gramme of three days adjourn
ment for next week.

Attention Tobacco Planters.

Complaint is made that resin is
found on much of the bright
tobacco produced in Eastern North
Carolina. Its presencei is account
ed for in this way: The tier poles
and rafters of the curing barns
being of pine with a great deal of
heart in it or old field growth with
an excess of knots the resin exudes
therefrom under high heat and
drips on the tobacco below during
the process of curing. Being
about the same color as the tobacco
it's presence is not detected in
handling and in this condition it
goes to the manufacturer.
Put a drop of resin in your pipe
or cigarette and smoke it and you
will readily see that it is not an
agreeable combination of delight
full flavor. And this sort of thing
has caused consumers to kick.
They go to the manufacturer with
their complaint. The mapufac-
turer turns back on the exporter
or man from whom he bought his
stock and the latter at once locates
the trouble, because he knows
where he bought it. Greatest
complaint comes from tobacco
raised in the Eastern part of the
State.
The remedy is to replace the
poles of which we speak with some
other kind of wood or well season
ed pine poles free from knots.
Or they might be wrapped with
pieces of bagging OF old sacks SO as
to prevent the resin from drip
ping on the tobacco. This is a
matter of Importance and planters
should give it attention, or they
will be the losers thereby. The
following extract from a letter
just received by one of our largest
exporters from one Of his custom
ers in England emphasizes what
IS said above:
1--WE regret to say, that we con-
tinue to find traces of resin In
nearly all marks of bright leaf
and strips. The matter is be-
coming very serious and we have
been able to trace certain COM
plants which we have had from
The public, to the presence OF this
Objectionable substance. Ship
pers will very seriously hamper
us unless they take immediate
steps to remedy the evil, and we
cannot help thinking that If it
continues, the public viii take to
Turkish cigarettes instead
Of Virginia and North Carolina.

SEWALL'S son

Washington April 23.-The
President yesterday sent to the
Senate a number of nominations,
the most important being that of
Harold M. Sewall. of Maine, to
be Envoy and Minister to Haw-
oil. Mr.. Sewall is only 38 years
OF age, but has had experience
in diplomatic service. He was
formerly a Democrat and was
Consul at Samoa during a part
of the first Cleveland adminiss
tration, He resigned that office
because of his disagreement with
the policy of President Cleve-
land, which he declared was un-
American.
Since 1888 he has been a Re-
publican Of the most aggressive
kind. Although his father was
nominated to be Vice President
by the Chicago convention which
nominated Mr.. Bryan for the
Presidency. Mr.. Sewall declined
to support the ticket. On the
contrary, he appeared on the
hastings in Maine as an ardent
advocate of the election of Nc
Kinley.
Three weeks previous to the
nomination of his father to be
Vice President he was a delegate
to the Republican national cons
vention at St. Louis and sup>
ported Thomas B. Reed for the
Presidency. He has spent a great
deal of time at Honolulu and in
the contiguous Hawaiian Islands,
and is familiar with the condi>
tions of the people there, their
hopes aud aspirations. 1t is
understood in diplomatic service
here that Mr.. Sewall is in SYM
patty with the annexationists,
and that fact is taken to indicate
the policy of the Mckinley adj
minstratiop, which is antipodally
opposite to the policy of the last
administration.
Senator Davis, of Minnesota,
chairman of the committee on
foreign relations, called a meet
ing of that committee this after
noon and presented the Dame of
Mr.. Sewall, which was received
with favor. by TIE committee;
and in executive session about 3
o'clock Senator Davis favorably
reported the nomination, and it
was confirmed without opposi-
ton.

JACKSON.

o ~
day of his death Mrs. jackson in
formed him that his recovery was
very doubtful, and that it was
better that he should prepare for
the worst.
He was silent for a moment and
then said: cit will be infinite gain
to be translated to heaven" He
advised his wife, in the event of
his death, to return to her fathers
house, and added; "You have a
kind and good father, but there is
no one as kind and good as your
Heavenly Father
He still expressed a hope that
he would recover, but requested
his wife, in case he should die, to
have him buried in Lexington, in
the Valley of Virginia. His tx
haustion increased SO rapidly that
at IL o'clock Mrs. Jackson knelt
by his bed and told him that be-
fore the sun went down he would
be with his Saviour.
He replied; 30 no! You +
frightened, my child. Death is
not SO near. I may get WE'LL"
She fell upon the bed weeping
bitterly, and again told him, amid
her tears and sobs, that the ply
sicians declared that there was no
longer any hope for his recovery.
After a moments pause he ask
ed her to call the family physi-
clan.
Doctor" he said, as the ply
stefan entered the room, "Annie
informed me that you told her [
am to die to-day. Is it SOP"
Col. Pendleton, one of the Of
fcers of his staff, came into the
room about one o'clock. General
Jackson asked him:
"Who is preaching at the head
quarters today"
When told in reply that the
whole army was praying for him,
he replied:
"Thank God! They are very
kind" Then he added: cit is the
Lords day; my wish is fulfilled. I
have always desired to die on
Sunday"
Slowly his mind began to fail
and wonder, and he frequently
talked in his delirium as if in
command of his army on the field
of battle. He would give orders
to his aides in the old way, and
then the scene changed. He was
at the mess-table in conversation
with members of his staff; now
with his wife and child; now at
prayers with his family. Occas-
ional intervals of a return of his
mind would appear, and during
one of them the physician offered
the dying man some brandy and
water, but he declined it saying:
cit would only delay my de-
parture and do no good, [ want
to preserve my mind to the last,
fl possible"
A few moments before the end
arrived the dying warrior cried
out in his delirium:
"Order A. P. Hill to prepare
for actionl" "Pass the infantry
to the front rapidly" "Tell Ma
jor Hawkes. -, Then his
voice was silent, and the sentence
remained unfinished.
An instant later a smile of in
effable sweetness and purity
spread itself over his calm, pale
face, and then looking upward,
and slightly raising his hands, he
said quietly, and with an express
sion of relief:
"Let us cross over the river
and rest under the shade of the
trees"
And then, without a sign of a
struggle or of pain, his spilit pass
away.

HARD LUCK.

The Baraga baseball team return.
ed home Monday morning from
Houghton, where they played the
team of that city Saturday after
noon and also Sunday afternoon,
but luck was against the BOYS,
evidently, and the Houghtons cap
tured both games. The score
Saturday was II to =, and Sunday
~ to .. Larson pitched for
Houghton Saturday, and Berriman
for Baraga. Sunday the batteries
were Healy and Haas for Houghton.
and Lynch and Nugent for Baraga.
Baraga has an excellent ball team,
but the boys THUS far this season
have certainly shared hard luck,
while the Houghtons have played
in excellent luck, although part of
their success has been well merited
and due to good playing.
Saturdays game was poorly at
tended, but Sunday afternoon a
large crowd was present, and for
a time it was believed that the
Baragas would be victorious. but
things took turn, and the Hough-
tons had everything their own way.

GEORGE ROYCE TURNS UP.

The following, taken from the De-

George A. Royce, will be of local
interest, as he was at one time

bookkeeper for the hester Estate:
AT one time it was supposed that

vention wouldn I be complete unless
at some stage of it George A.Royce,
OF Marquette, and his sombrero,
popped up to say something of this
grand old party of ours. Two years
ago, however, George shook Mar
quette, and subsequent conventions
didn't know him. Hundreds OF
regulars at conventions mourned
him as lost, but the mourners can
now turn to Joy. A Detroit man
lound George in Chicago last week.
he is private secretary for Marcus
Pollasky. Marcus introduced him
TO the Detroit man as his secretary,
so there can be no mistake about 1t.
1T was the same old George, only
the leaf of his sombrero is an inch
and three-quarters wider than 1t
used TO be. Marcus is running .

of Is summers. The mischievous girl

er said: "Give me your hand. Nellie"
Her black eyes twinlled. as she de-
