Majesty of Man.

There was a very large congregation
at the First Methodist Church on Sun
day evening, to hear the discourse OF
Rev. G. L. Pearson, the pastor, on the
subject 1.-The Majesty of Man. The
sermon was a studious, able effort.
Rev. Mr.. Pearson takes no pessimistic
view of man or his mission on earth,
He urged upon his hearers the duties
and responsibilities of existence, of ac-
lions and emphasized clearly the rela-
tions Of individuals to brothers, to the
community at large, to Christianity
and the church.

Extended Trips of Chief Magistrates Of
h Nation Are Not Uncommon.
President McKinley's action In taking
a trip OF some extent about the country
during his term of Office Is directly IN
line with an example set by Washing
ton and followed by several Of the pres
idents. In March. 1891. the Father Of
His Country made a journey from the
national capital at Philadelphia to
what was then the extreme South,
Georgia. The route was through Fred
e~ricksburg and Richmond. Va. to VIII
mington. N. c.. and Charleston TO Sa-
vannah. thence to Augusta. Columbia
and the interior towns of North Caro-
lima and Western Virginia, about $500
miles.
Instead of a train of palace cars, spa-
cious n sumptuous. and provided
with everything to minister to the
wants OF a traveller. the first president
and his little party set of on their jour-
ney with only n set of horses. and
making occasional stops. Bad roads
and a tolting carriage made 1t impossi-
bic to cover many miles a day, and
Washington and his companions were
greatly fatigued and the horses much
educed In flesh when. on July 6. after
an absence OF 30 days. the party re-
turned to Philadelphia. But he had
brought himself before the people and
was cheered by the demonstration Of a
nations respect.
Another journey that became historic
vas the protracted tour Of President
Monroe through a large part of the
Northern and Middle states, inspecting
various public works and gaining mucn
information as to the state OF those
parts of the country. He was received
with every demonstration OF respect
aa1 A4.ltexr ~, sL- --- -
years later made another tour through
the Southern states.
President Andrew Johnson's speech
making tour in 1866 from Washington
to Chicago, which, because of one of
his own expressions. became known as
swinging round the circle" is also a
matter Of history. 1t was the fortune
of President Grant to make several
journeys among the people. the most
extended being a trip. in the fall OF
1875. to Salt Lake City by way of St.
Louis and Omaha. on his return pass
ing through Chicago. The people ev-
erywhere turned u i'm large numbers
TO welcome him, n on several occa-
sions the vociferous greetings and i'm
mense crowds caused the reserved and
taciturn warrior to make short speech
es. At a Grand Army reunion at Des
Moines, Iowa, on Oct. IL, 1875, Presi-
dent Grant uttered these words:
Let us labor for the security OF free
thought. free speech, free press. pure
morals. unfettered religious convictions
and equal rights and privileges OF all
men, irrespective of nationality. color
or religion"

ed Western trip in his first term. Pres

BURIED SIX HUSBANDS.
Matrimonial Record of a Missouri wo-
man Who Has just Married No. Z,


From the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
A dispatch from Humansville, Mo,
the marriage there yester-
day of Mrs. Lottie Dougherty to b. ID.
Smith. This makes the seventh time
Mrs. Smith has welded. She has been
divorced from none of her former hus-
bands. but has outlived them.
Mrs. T. j. Atkins. wife of the chairman
OF the republican state central commit
tee, il well acquainted with the bride
and gave a be-Democrat reporter
something of the former matrimonial
ventures of Mrs. Smith. For the lady
Mrs. Atkins has the highest regard and
declares that she is the envy of all the
ladies of Humansville for the way in
which she captures the hearts Of men.
Originally the new Mrs. Smith was
Miss Lottie Bridges. In those days the
lady did not live in Humansville. Miss
Bridges was induced to change her
name to Vice. Mr.. Vice dice and a man
named Depriest won the heart and hand
OF the young widow. Mr.. Depriest died
and his widow married a Mr.. MilIigan.
whose wife she was when she removed
to Humansville. After the death OF Mr..
Milligah the lady married a Mr.. Daw-
son. He died and Mrs. Dawson was
prevailed upon to change her name to
Crozier. Mr.. Crozier lasted about as
long as his predecessors and soon after
his death his widow married a Mr..
Dougherty. About two years ago Mr..
Dougherty died and now his relict has
Joined life and fortune with Mr.. Smith.
Once IL was rumored. says Mrs. Atkins,
that Mrs. Smith was engaged to be mar
ried to a Mr.. Neff. but the marriage
never took place because the prospect
i've groom was superstitlous
Although Mrs. Smith has been mar
ried seven times, she Is still compara-
lively a young woman. Mrs. Atkins says
she cannot be more than so years of age
at the most. Her new husband Is many
years her senior. Mrs. Smith has but
four children-a daughter by Mr.. Vice.
two son by Mr.. Depriest and one son
by Mr.. Milligan. Her first marriage &C.
CURED when she was a girl of but Is.
Mrs. Smith has often told her neigh.
bors. Mrs. Atkins says that when a
child she had her fortune told and was
Informed hat she was to be married
seven times. All of Mrs. Smiths hus-
bands have been estimable gentlemen.
Mrs. kin says.

in San Francisco. Is alleged to have
been somewhat deranged mentally and

They were seen walking OF kane's

to throw herself into the bay or to

MARKETs.
Produce.

Chicago. Oct. 25.-English consols were
again lower at the start and the Liverpool
wheat market opened excitedly and high
err. The logical result of that by itself
should have been a wild scramble for
wheat here and a much more material rise
Wheat spectators had, however. the day
In prices than occurred the day before.
Wheat spectators had. however. to take
account of many things that were not pa
raded in view of the multitude. and IL was
due to some OF these obscure influences
that a severe decline In prices which in
augurated the days business was not so
illogical as appeared upon the surface.
Many of the active traders have loaded
themselves recently with wheat at what
they would consider a dangerously high
figure II peace were assured. People III
had bought heavily because they thought
was was imminent and no use I'm the other
event, listened to the whisperings of a
probable peaceful settlement of the FASH
oda difficulty and FASTENED to rid them
selves of their war-priced wheat.
English consols later In the day recov-
cred their early decline. This was hailed
as the harbinger of peace and helped to
bring out more o wheat. and even
some from the more careful short sellers.
The weak feeling that had prevailed was
arrested for a time by a report from New
York that 100 boatloads OF wheat had
been bought for export. The close was at
6s<Q6ssc for December. a loss of &c.
Corn was easy n would of Its own vo-
lition probably rave emaine immovable.
but was forced to adopt a downward
course. The result of lower prices or car
rage and a decline In the price OF the
grain was the taking of quite a heavy
amount for export. Receipts were moder-
ate-40 cars. The market firmed up a
trife near the close on country pur-
chases. December lost hdsc on the day.
Oats ruled weak with the selling OF long
property by a prominent scalper. The de-
cline was also assisted by the weakness
of wheat and corn. May closed AdSc
