ton of the church in Washington

Tor and junior warden and not less than
three or more than eight vestrymen. The
vestry shall elect a secretary and treas
Erer."

in administration. Under the old system of
electing the church officers on Easter Sun
day there was the difficulty of getting the
reports before the diocesan conventions ex-
perienced that new officers would natur-
ally have. BY the new plan the officers
viii have several months in which to be-
come thoroughly familiar with their du-
ties and the diocesan conventions, which
meet in May, viii thus have proper reports
submitted

DREAMS OF THE DAYS GONE av.

Dreams, come home to my heart again With the memory Of the past Come with your pleasure and your pain And your hopes too bright to last. Come from your hidden graves that lie In the beautiful realms of the days gone hy, Come from your glorious graves that lie In the realms of the days gone byi will welcome ye all again,
 As once in the halls of Eld, Welcome tho pleasure and the pain
 For the beauty your brief lives held. Dreams, come out of your secret graves In the woodland wilds and the dim un
 caves;
 Dreams. come out of your myriad graves h the wilds and the dim sea cavesi Ne throng the halls of my heart once moes With faces sad with pain. Oh, faded ghosts Of the dreams of yore, The joy comes not again. Go back 10 your mournful graves that Is In the shadowy realms of the days gone hs; Go back to your voiceless graves that lie In the realms of the days gone byi -Esmma A. Browne in New York Letgss.

CRYING AS A SAF ETY VALVE
Scientific Declaration That .sa Good Cry
 Is Beneficial.

Scientific Declaration That s.a Good Cry
 Is Beneficial.
 The Hospital declares that the popu- lar belief that "a good cry' gives at times a salutary relief has good scien- fife foundation. A writer on that sub- jeot says:
 Crying is so commonly associated with distress that mans natural in. stinet is to put Q stop to it as soon as possible. We should not forget, how ever, that it has it's uses. Dr. Harry Campbell has recently shown how com plex are the phenomena involved in a good cry. This does not consist merely in the shedding of tears, but includes so general and widespread an action of the muscles that the whole body may be con- vulsed. In children also great change takes place during crying in the manner ill which the respiration is carried on. Aspirations are prolonged sometimes for as much as half minute and are in- terrupted by short inspirations. During expiration the glottis is contracted so that the intrapulmonary pressure rises considerably, and there can be but little doubt that it is the equal distribution of this increased air pressure throughout the whole of the chest leading to the dilatation If portions of the lungs that have become more or less collapsed, that is the explanation of the great benefit which often results from crying in cases of infantile bronchitis and of the large discharge of bronchial mucus which so often follows Children may become very blue during the paroxysm, but the deep respirations which succeed quickly restore the circulation to better con- dition than before in consequence of the larger lung space rendered available. In women the beneficial effect of good cry is proverbial. In them also this Is partly due to tho increased depth of respiration and the improvement in the often languid circulation thereby in- duced, but to a large extent it is the re- suit of the muscular exercise involved, by which the general vascular tension, and especially the blood pressure in the brain, are much reduced. The profuse flow of tears no doubt also acts strongly on the cerebral circulation i'll still fur ther reducing tension. The sobbing movements, again, have good influence upon the venous circulation i'll the ab- dominal and pelvic viscera, while the exhaustion produced tends to produce sleep and thus to give the nervous sys- tenn it's best chance of recuperation. We should not, then, too hastily intervene to stop woman from having out her cry. If we can remove her trouble, by all means let us do so, but if the trouble is to remain, let her cry herself to sleep.

AN AFRICAN POISON STORY.
Strange Phenomenon Witnessed In the
 Northeast of the Dark Continent.

Charles M. Stern of Chicago, who re- turned to this city after a journey through northeast Africa, told of curi- ous meteorological phenomenon which he observed in a district called Gwallah ''The vegetation in that region is very Iuxuriant," said he, land the plant life must give off an unusually large quan- tity of carbonie acid gas At least that was the conclusion I reached after see- ing three natives die and four or five dogs.
 ''The moment the animals put their noses close to the ground they would fall over and gasp and die in about five minutes The natives who died slept on the ground instead of in hammoeks as others did. I saw hundreds of dead birds My theory is that a stratum of the deadly gas covered the ground for q depth of three or four inches and any living thing breathing ill that area would be asphyxiated
 ''I could not understand, however. how the gas was not distributed ill a thinner layer and what kept it in one place for q whole day. Nothing like it had ever been known there before. The deaths of the men and the dogs all oc- cured within 24 hours. Then the gas. if it was really gas, seemed to dissipate. It was a very strange occurrence, and I might have been induced to make a more exhaustive investigation if my presence had not excited distrust. Iges away as quickly as possible rather thab be accused of being the cause of ths sudden deaths. The natives are super stitious and attribute most of their mis- fortunes to witchcraft, so I thought it the part of wisdom to get away. "--New York Mail and Express.

FORDYCE NEWS.
Special Correspondence.
FoRDYcE, Ark, Mt

FoRDYCE, Ark, March f, 1898.
 The most delightful concert enjoy ed by the people of our town for many days was that given by the Fordyce Chorus Club, last evening. Besides songs by the whole club, the program consisted of instrumental and vocal solos, trios, auartets and recitations; all carefully prepared and artitiscally rendered. The large crowd present, including many visi- tors from neighboring towns, gave repeated demonstrations of their high appreciation for the evening s enjoyment. The Club has, for sever- al months, been under the skilful management of Mrs. c. V. Edgar, whose fame as a musician extends far beyond the limits of Fordyce, to her finesse and tact was in a great measure the success of the entertain ment. After the musical program had been rendered Rev. R. R. Moore, O4 A1OC OEiibSs= =Csii1le iOEWdfU dUQ delivered a brief historical address in which he spoke eloquently of the noble work that has been done by the Fordyce Training School in past years and emphasized the burning need of more such schools thoughout the State. The members of the Chorus Club kindly donated the door-receipts to fund which is be- ing raised for the improvement of the building and grounds of the school.
 Miss Sue Hampton has returned from a visit to relatives at Camden.
 Dr. Hodge, of Millville, was a For dyce visitor yesterday.
 Mir. s. J. T. Wynne, principal of the Rison Public School came down and attended the concert last night.

THE WONDERS OF A wATct4
New Persons Know How Great Its Mar
 veIous Powers Are.

A Boston jeweler who has talent for advertising as we'll as a genius for mechanics has been reminding his pa. irons lately that a watch is the small. est, most delicate machine that waa ever constructed of the same number of parts About 175 different pieces of ma terial enter into it's construction and upward of 2, AGO separate operations ara comprised ill its manufacture
 Some of the facts connected with lts performance are simply incredible, when considered in total. A blacksmith strikes several thousand blows on his anvil in day and is right glad when Sunday comes around, but the roller jewel of a watch makes every day and day after day 432, GOO impacts against the fork, or 157, ,680, 900 blows in year without stop or rest, or 3,153, 500, 900 in the short space of 20 years.
 These figures are beyond the grasp od our feeble intellects, but the marvel does not stop here. It has been estimat- ed that the power that moves the watch is equivalent to only four times the force used in fea's jump; consequent ly it might be called a four lieu power. One horsepower would suffice to run 270, ,000, 900 watches.
 Now the balance wheel of a watch is moved by this four flea power one and forty tbreo cae-hundredths inches with each vibration-3, 558A miles continu- ously in one year.
 If you would preserve the timekeep- ing qualities of your watch, you should take it to @ competent watchmaker once every IS months Youth s Companion.

HIS TERRIBLE SUSPICION.
II spreads n Thick smear OF Opaque
Gloom over HIS Correct
Young Life.

Reginald Ashcroft was the son Of rich but
refined parents, and yet he was not happy.
There was a panied expression upon his
handsome countenance, and ever and anon
he walked TO the wlndow and looked out
over the beautiful prospect that stretched
away toward Wilton manor.
At last he mounted his favorite cob, which
had for two hours been hitched in front Of
the stately old mansion, and dashed down
the broad highway.
Upon reaching Wilton manor the young
man dismounted and rushed in,
Geraldine Huddlethwaite, who had seen
his coming, met him at the door
There was a fond clasping of hands, long,
long look that was more eloqueat than
words could have been, and then the hand
some pair entered the drawingroom.
Something troubles you, Reginald. the
beautiful girl said at last. "Ah, do not try
TO keep IL from me. NV love tells me that
you are in trouble. Tell me all. sweetheart,
and let me share your burden"
Dearest little one, he answered, as her
| fair head was pressed against his breast,

and cast my gloom over you. But ] knew

Then he sighed, and after brief silence
resumed
"You. know ! am to take part in the match
game of golf tomorrow"
Yes, yes" she answered, and startled
look came into her eyes.
! WEB, he went on, 81 am almost sure
that | am TO be made the victim of con

Geraldine Huddlethwaite was so hadh
shocked that she could only stare at him
and they both sat there in dumb silence

The detective smiled.
Only that there are two sides to the
case. Either WILDLY is guilty or some
one else is; and that is what the public
thinks. | should be glad to prove him
wholly innocent. If he is guilty, he is

tective. Goodnight" And he opened
the door and was gone.
For several minutes DIR. LamplSin and
the colonel stood looking at each other
in silence. The pause was ended by the
colonel.
We'll, We haven't any bright news for
the poor fellow, have we? Shallwe wake
him and tell him the result Of our inves-
tigations?"
