spirators the other poets of Missouri,
animated perhaps by jealousy of Joe?
1t is impossible for mere eastern man
to answer this most puzzling question.
Let Missouri speak and remove, or else
explain, a set of facts SO utterly anon
alous.
AT any rate, now that the legislature
has cast its aegis over Joe, and now
that the most shrinking and timorous
Missourian may safely send five cents
to the Bowers committee, there can be
no doubt that the stigma will be blot
ted out from the escutcheon of the
state. The money will be instantly
raised. A speaking likeness, carved
from the best Missouri granite, will
make the lineaments of Joseph Bowers
as familiar to all men as his noble po-
etry has ever been; while his name and
fame, perpetuated by the hand of art,
will gather fresh impetus with each re-
volving year until all the world shall
make of the monument to this great
genius a sacred and imperishable
shrine.
BY the way, who was Joe Bowers,
anyway New York Commercial Ad-
vertiser.

A NATIVE OF THIS CITY.

Arthur w. Sherman, for many years
cashier of the Gallatin National bank
of New York. died at 10 o'clock Tuesday
night at the Metropolitan club, after
being in bed only a day. At his bed
side were two brothers. and married
sister. Death was due to Bright's dis
ease.
For number of years Mr.. Sherman
has been d sufferer, but it was not until
few days before his death that he
was unable to attend to his business.
His only daughter, Mrs. F. A. King Of
Bristol, R. l., and his 9-year-old son,
Arthur Carr Sherman, who is attend
ing school at Pomfret, Conn, were
summoned. Neither the son nor the
daughter was able to reach New York
before their father died.
Mr.. Sherman was born in New Haven
IS years ago. In 1850 he went to work
in the Bank Of New York as a clerk.
On the breaking out Of the war he went
to the front and on his return opened a.
brokers' office on Wall street. Some
time later he entered the employ Of the
Gallatin National bank as an account
ant. Seventeen years ago he became
cashier and held that position until his
death. He was twice married and was
widower at the time of his death.

ALITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humors- How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
It appeared in the form Of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wifes mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and 1t has never since returned"
WILLIAM BARTz, 416 South Williams ST.,
South Bend, Indiana.
You can buy Hoods Sarsaparilla OF all
druggists. Be sure to get only Hoods.

Many Will Be Present at Seventh Al

Many Will Be Present at Seventh An
nual Congress.
More than 700 representatives Of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
will be present at the seventh annual
congress, which will be held in Wash

For the past two months there have
been no buster women in the whole
universe than the national officers,
who have devoted all their energies to
the preparation of the annual reports
of the national society, which must be
correct and comprehensive to the
finest detail in order to pass muster be-
fore so critical gathering of women.
At present the organization counts a
membership Of more than $4,000 and
chapters are found in every state ex-
cept Wyoming, idaho and Nevada.
The report Of the national treasurer
will show about $4,000 for the memo
rial hall, to be erected by the Daugh-
tiers for the preservation of revolution
airy relics, and to be woman's club
house.
There is no place in Washington
available for women's conventions, and
it is estimated that handsome in
come could be derived by the rental Of
the auditorium for society meetings.
1T would, moreover, give the Daugh-
ters themselves place for their own
sessions.
1t will be reported at the coming
congress that the plan to unite the
Daughters Of the Revolution and the
Daughters Of the American Revolution
has not been a success. The societies

LETTER FROM DIR. BURTON.
A Characteristic and Entertaining Out

A Characteristic and Entertaining Out
burst.
The "Congregationalist" prints the
following amusing letter from the Rev.
DIR. Burton in 1880 to friend in Massa-
chusetts, who asked him about minis
ter mentioned for pastorless church.
1t evidently was not one of DR.. Bur
toms good days.
20, my brother, knowing the de-
mands Of your church and other
churches, do not feel sure that there
is place on the ransomed earth where
Mr.. A (and the same Is true of I'M
counted millions more of nlinisters)
would even approximately suit or could
get call. Therefore, can hardly
raise courage to mention to you the
name Of any man as worth writing to
with reference to the pastorate Of your
church. know 100000 of them who
would like a call from you, but I know
100000 reasons in each case why the
man would not be equal to the situa-
| ton. Frankly, am detected to-day.
And as to Mr.. B, too, of whom you in
! quire, do not know him, but am de-
| jeeted about him all the same Yes
| am.
II have been pastor in Hartford
| twenty-four years, and I have spent,
on an average, twelve hours a day all
| that. time trying to get calls for unem-
| ployed ministers, but never a man of
them has been called, T guess, except
| by some side-wind and squirt of pure
| luck with which I had nothing to do.
| Therefore I am detected, and who can
| blame me? What detestable genera
| ton this is! Therefore l cannat rec
| ommend A or B or anybody-don't feel
! as though I could Nevertheless, I'd
like to have you keep on writing to
me- and let me sit down on man after
man whom you name. Speaking of A,
soberly now, he is all that he has been
described to you as pastor and
man. But do suppose that you need
in your church a man of rather excep-
tional preaching power, and Mr.. A
while he is good preacher, is not that
very robust and exceptional man.
Neither is B, Judging from what have
heard, but an not an authority on
him.
II could write more, a great deal
more, for my heart is full and / am
melancholy, as I said before, but what
is the use? Would it help you to a
minister? Nay, would it not confuse
| you more and more, and dispirit you,
and make you sorry that ministers
were ever invented? Yea, verify.
Your in the bonds of common
| troubles, N. Burton.

GOLDEN EAGLE SEEN.
Fishers Island Poultry Yards Attract
These Fine Birds

Fishers Island Poultry Yards Attract
These Fine Birds.
A large golden eagle was seen by the
inhabitants of Fishers Island Monday.
1t is quite rare member Of the eagle
family to be found in this part of the
country. 1t derives it's name from the
golden color of the feathers which COW
er it's neck and head. The plumage OF
the body is a rich colored brown. This
species of the bird is usually very au-
dacious and it has been known to carry
away hares. lambs and even small
pigs.
1t is stated that the golden eagle can
be tanned, and has been trained to
catch game for Its master. The people
who saw the bird on Fishers Island
are sorrow they could not capture It,,
The operator of the telephone exchange
on the island said the flight Of the, bird
was very graceful, sweeping through
the air in a series of spiral curves, ris-
ing with every curve and making no
perceptible effort or motion with its
wings.
The eagle was no doubt attracted by
the large focks Of fowl that are al
ways feeding about the pens Of the
Fishers Island. poultry yards.

WE'RE FIRM FRIENDS.

Among the papers Of the late Rev.
DR.. n. p. Arms, who resided at Nor
wich Town AS years, Is q letter which
shows how active for good work Hon.
John T. Wait of Norwich, was when he
was first admitted to the bar. Mr..
Wait, on behalf of the society com-'
mittee OF the First Congregational
church, invited Rev. Hiram p. Arms to
preach few Sundays In the ancient
edif1ce at Norwich Town. The result
of the preaching was the minister's in-
stallation on the Sd Of August, 1885.
Rev. DR.. Arms was always a firm
friend Of Mr. Wait. This venerable
pastor closed his labors April s. 1881.

MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING
INVITATION.

Women suffering from any form of
female reimbursement invited topromptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re-
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk OF her private illness to woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish If she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance.
