explained that Miss Clarh Barton sew

mercial or perhaps fraudulent purposes.
Under treaty entered intoby majority
of the civilized nations of the world
the sign of the Red Gross is known as
an insignia of hospital cbrps or charit-
able organizations. Otler nations had
protected the insignia Of the society,
and the United States ought also to
protect it !. After brief executive

The House-Thursday.

The house today promptly resumed
the debate on the civil service ques-
ton, and Mr.. Grosvenor, of Ohio,
took the floor with an elaborate speech
in opposition to the law. In opening,
Mr.. Grosvenor disclaimed any leader
ship of the anti-civil service reform
and civil service reform forces, and
any purpose to speak for any officer OF
the government Legislative
or judicial. He then proceeded to
pay his respects to the National Civil
Service Reform League, and to Carl
Schurz, its president. His excoriation
of the latter was the most scathing that
has been heard on the floor of the
house in months. He denounced un-
sparingly those who sought to read
out of the republican party those who
believed in the repeal of the civil SER
vice law. He argued that the people
were overwhelmingly opposed to the
law. Mr.. johnson (republican), of
Indiana, one of the ardent defenders
of the law, followed Mr.. Grosvenor
with an extended argument in support
of the merit question. The entire day
was taken up in the civil service de-
bate AT 400 p. m. the house adj
journed.

cure-all, but it is a scientific medicine that
goes to the fountain head of a number of
serious and fatal diseases. When a man
gets seriously sick, he can generally be
cured by the right course of treatment.
The treatment that cures many obstinate
chronic diseases consists of pure air, good
remedy that will strengthen the weak
stomach, correct the impaired digestion,
invigorate the liver and promote the as
si1nilation of the live giving elements of
the food. The "Goldel Medical Discov-

"FAMILY OF NATIONS"
Theme Discussed by Rev. Frank Sew
all of New Church.

The Rev. Frank SewalI at the New
Church preached his Thanksgiving sermon
on the Family of Nations" and took for
his text "One is your master-even Christ
and all ye are brethren After speaking
of the universal sentiment and the act of
thanksgiving, which may be united in by
those of all religions by children of one
Heavenly Father, he spoke of the duty in
cumbent on an intelligent and rational
people to offer a rational thanksgiving
And what is a rational way for a people
to estimate their prosperity. and to be
thankful for it?'' he inquired. "A barber
Gus people," he said, would give thanks
in holding riotous orgies over the slain
victims, perhaps, or over a big harvest, or
after an averted pestilcnce or not taking
themselves into account in either the sup
posed blessing or the act of thu nksgiving
but only their bodiesi That is no reasona-
BILE service, because there is no regard for
the souls interest or the souls duty in
any part of the thanksgiving. And SO a
nation might give thanks for mere tenn
porary success over an enemy or for the
mere accumulation of treasures, forgetting
that of old, in dealing with His people,
God gave them their request, but sent
leanness into their souls.
THE nation, to keep national thanks
giving, must have rational sense of what
that national prosperity really is. and that
Is 10 DE- re1olced IN. lean soul would be
poor cause for rejoicing. Now, an indi-
vfdual should esteem his prosperity in the
world according to his capacity to be of
service to the world. The only ground of
real value is use, and that man is richest
who has the best facilities to serve his
fellow men In a way to make their lives
happier and better. Nations are blessed
as they become a blessing to others.
I'VE must recognize the value of variety
in unity. We may love our sister nations
mr.
our dominion without feeling compelled to
turn them all into Anglo-SaXons, much less
into New England Puritans. z pluribus
unum means one out of many and not
merely one large much of the same thing.
The Difference, courtesy and patience of
man with man in good society should char
acterZe a nations dealings with another
member of the family of nations. a ma
ton which is sullen and grabbed, and only
wants to be let alone has a miserable
career before it. Our cause for rejoicing
is the larger life it was given to us to lead
the nobler, higher and wider service we
shall be enabled to render in the one great
family under the roof tree of the Heavenly
Fathers house"

HEBREW CHURCHES.
Jcreminh's Letter to IsreaIftes Au-
thOrity to Congregations.

Thanksgiving services were held this af
ternoon in the Hebrew synagogue, corner
9th and G streets northwest, where a ser
mon was delivered by Rabbi Mcndell, who
was called to the temple in September. In
his sermon this afternoon he referred to
the innovation in the church Of Thanksgiv-
ing services, but denied it was opposed to
orthodoxy. In Jeremiah's letter to the
Israelites reference was made to Thanks
giving, the observance of the laws and GUS
toms of country, and it was far from
departure of all that was strictly ortho-
dox to thank God In the synagogue for the
blessings He had bestowed during the year.
Rabbi Mendell took occasion to praise this
great country its prosperity and free in
situations. He eulogiZed President McKin-
ley for his wise administration of the af-
fairs of state and periodically referred to
our achievements on land and sea in the
recent war with Spain. War, he said, was
to be depiored, but when actuated by feel
ings of justice and against tyranny it lost
much of its sting.
The large congregation appeared deeply
impressed with the sermon, and, when 1t
was concluded, resolved to hold similar
services each Thanksgiving day. Several
choruses by a choir of little children lent an
added interest to the exercises.
Thanksgiving services will be held this

Hish-Priced Marriage License.
tho (l,joavo Infer 0cpan

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The Chickasaw legislature, now in session
at Tishamingo, I. r., has passed Il law
which is intended to stop white men from
marrying Indian women, by taxing them
5000 for a marriage license.
There are about 10000 full-blooded In
dams in the Chickasaw tribe, while the 9th
ers are about $4,000 in number. and are
half and quarterTblosds. and among them
are many squaw men. These squaw mer
are white men who have married Indian
women and settled upon Indian lands. This
practice is not TO the liking of the full
blooded Indians, ,but lrthey were powerless
until recently. At the last tribal election
the full-bloods, for the, first time in twenty
years. got CONTROL of the council Since then
they have made life q burden for the half
breeds and squaW men: Many laws have
been passed detrimental to their interests,
but the most effective action of all was
taken last week, when the price of a mar
riage license was raised from $50 to $500
This is applicable, only to white men who
would marry Indian Yomen. Considering
however, that the Average Chickasaw girl
has tribal properly to the value of about
81, 600, the price Of marriage license may
not yet affect the shrewd white spectators
who have been marrying the Chicka sa W
bellies for revenue only.
