CHRISTMAS SPEECH.
Appeals to Spanish to Resent
American Insults and Trust
in God.

Madrid, April 20.-The opening of the
spanish cortes today was magnificent
sight All the wealth and beauty of
Madrid gathered in the senate, where
every available foot of space was occu-
pied.
Inc queen regent read her speech from
the throne. The little king was seated on
her right. She referred to the troubles
mentioned at the last session of the
cortes, saying they had increased, lowing
to the attitude on the part of the people
of the United States in fomenting rebel
hon., adding that hitherto Spain had
submitted ito these threats and injuries
as not being an expression of the Ameri-
can nation. But, becoming national, they
United States"
continuing, the queen regent said: ''In
the supreme crisis the pope spoke words
of peace, which We're hearkened to by
my government, in the consciousness of
right and in strict performance of inter-
national duties. Spains gratitude is due
to the hope also that the great powers
whose action also strengthens my convic-
ton that Spain's cause deserves universal
sympathy.
Possibly, however, the peace efforts
may fail to control the evil passions ex-
cited against Spain. Lest this moment
arrive, have summoned the cortes to de-
fend our rights at whatever sacrifice this
may entail. Thus identifying myself
with the nation, I not only fulfill the oath
1 swore in accepting the regency but 1
follow the dictates of a mothers heart,
trusting to the Spanish people to gather
behind my sons throne and to defend it
until he is old enough to defend it himself.
as well as trusting to the Spanish people
to defend the honor and territory of the
nation''

ENGLISH ED1roR'ssvIEws.
Difference of Opinion Among Lon
don's Leading Papers.

London, April 20.-The Times says ed
itOrialIy this morning:
Delay on the American side can now
do no good. 1t is better that what the
president has to do should be done
quickly. It is surprising from our
American correspondent, that President
Mckinley alone in Washington with
the possible exception of Archbishop
Ireland still believes in the possibility
of peace a peaceful solution would
doubtless be possible if both govern
ments were sincerely DESTROYS to avoid
war. 1t is quite conceivable that in the
long run both will have reason to re-
gret the decision at which both have ar
rived We regret the outcome, on be-
half of both peoples"
The editorial concludes by noting that
''America's change of attitude toward
England and her appreciation of British
sympathy are eXemplified in Senator
Lodges proposal to pay the Boring Sea
award
The Daily News says editorially: I'm
full sympathy with America, we cannot
help thinking that the resolutions of
the house were wiser than those of the
senate. The jingOes have won the day,
but it is for no empty punctilio that the
United States is contending."
The Standard says: I'VE are per-
suaded that it will be the general YER
diet of all impartial judges that in per-
emptorily calling upon Spain to declare
its purpose at once, the American gov
eminent is departing wrongly and I'M
ed in relations between civilized ma
tions. Unhappily this is not for the
first time. A certain deliberate con-
tempt for amenities of intercourse is
apparent at Washington.
''Brusquer les choes might be sup
posed to be the fundamental maxim of
the state department. Spain should be
allowed decent time to reply America
ought not to forget the share her own
people have had in stimulating and
the rebellion in Cuba
The Daily Chronicle says: Our neu-
trality should be of the most benevo-
lent description toward America. We
ought to proclaim and regard it a
barbarcus and unfriendly act, liable
to instant reprisals if either Spanish or
American goods are seized on British
ships or a British cargo is seized on
board American or Spanish vessels.
Great Britain ought also to declare her
intention to prevent privateering on the
part of any state"
The Morning Post says: 1.-The differ
enca between the two governments re-
duces itself to fighting over the SOW
ereignty in Cuba. This is rather fine
point to be made an occasion for war.
Peace is now to be interrupted for the
first time between the great civilized
nations of Christendom since 1871. 1t
is to be hoped it will not be a prelude
to a new period of wars such as closed
in 1875"
The Morning Post believes that both
letters of marque and it agrees with
Lord Chas. Beresford, rear admiral, that
England most simple and most honor
able plan would be formally to de-
nounce the declaration of Paris, which
We ought never to have signed"

WITHOUT PAIN.
A Medical Discovery That Efectuelly
Cures Piles in Every Form.

For many years physicians have ex-
perimented in vain, seeking a remedy
which would effectually cure piles and
other rectal troubles, without resorting
to a surgical operation. Many remedies
were found to give temporary relief,
but none could be depended upon to
make lasting satisfactory cure.
Within a recent period, however,
new remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure,
has been repeatedly tested in hundreds
of cases and with highly satisfactory
results.
The first effect of the Pyramid Pile
Cure is to instantly remove the pain
and irritation generally present and
from that time on the cure rapidly pro-
crosses and before the patient is hardly
aware of it he is entirely cured. The
remedy seems to act directly on the
nerves and blood vessels of the parts
affected as it comes into direct contact
with them and sets up, healthy ac-
ton, which in a perfectly natural way
brings the parts to their normal condi-
ton.
The remedy does it's work without
any pain or inconvenience to the suf-
ferer and is justly considered one of the
most meritorious discoveries of modern
medicine.
Piles is one of the most annoying and
often times dangerous diseases with
winch humanity is afflicted If neglect
ed IT frequently developeS into hstula
or some equally fatal or incurable trou-
bic, whereas by the timely use of this
simple but effective remedy no one
need suffer a single day from any form
of piles unless they want to-
The Pyramid Pile Cure is perfectly
harmless. containing no mineral poisons
and is also very reasonable in price. 1t
is sold in drug stores everywhere at so
cents per package. The manufactur-
ers of the remedy are the Pyramid
Drug Co, of Marshall, Mich, who have
placed this excellent preparation before
the public only after giving it thorough
and repeated tests in the hands of re-
putable physicians. The results in hun
dreos of cases have convinced US that
it win not disappoint you.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal.

Chicago, April 20
notwithstanding markets abroad
and war talk at home caused an excited
opening in the wheat pit today. Within
a few minutes July sold up to the "calI'

when the news was received OF the actual
signing of the congressional resolutions by
President Mckinley the market remained
absolutely motionless. Chicago receipts
were 81 cars, against II cars last week
and cars year ago. Minneapolis and
Duluth got PIP cars, compared with 142
cars last week and POS cars year age.
The Liverpool market showed an opening

WHAT THEY WANT.
Democrats Ask for Fourth District
Congressman.

The question of fusion between the
Democratic and Populist parties in
Kansas may possibly be settled today.
A meeting of the conference committees
of both parties has been called for 5
o'clock this afternoon.
The Democratic committee submitted
a written communication to the POpu-
list state central committee today which
stated, after a lengthy review of what
fusion had accomplished in the state in
the past, that the Democrats of Kansas
would not support a straight Populist
ticket, and that the Democratic party
must have a representation. The COM
munication practically amounted to a
demand for congressman from the
Fourth district and an important place
on the state ticket.
The communication was referred to
the conference committee with power
to act and at the conference this after
noon the terms of fusion this year may
be agreed upon. 1t is understood that
the POpuliStS are willing to cOncede the
Fourth district congressman, and the
question arises on the place on the
state ticket. 1t is said the Democrats
will not be satisfied with lieutenant

FOR M'KINLEY'S HORSE.
Queer Purpose of An Excavation Near
the White House.

Washington, April 2O.-Workmen are
engaged today in digging a miniature
excavation for a block of granite about
one foot square, in the center of which
is an aperature for a bolt attached to
the gate which forms a portion of the
fence leading to the White House.
A curious crowd gathered about them
and it was said that the work was be-
ing done to enable the employees of the
White House to protect the president
by closing the gates during the coming
year.
A correspondent saw one of the at
taches of the White House and learned
that the presidents horses had fire.
QuentIy stumbled over the block which
was replaced today, and it's removal
was simply to protect the feet of the
presidents horses and not himself, as
many supposed.

ROUZELL ON TRIAL.
Troubles of the Fraternal Aid Asso-
citation Being Aired in Court.

The trial of Edwin Rouzell of Law
renee was commenced today in the
federal court and it promises to devel-
op something interesting. Mr.. Rouzell
is secretary of a fraternal organization
known as the Fra& ernal Aid associa-
ton and is charged With defrauding the
organization out of So, ZOO on a bogus
policy. His attorneys claim that the
suit is backed by the old officers of the
organization who were turned down by
the members. The old officers who are
witnesses in the suit against Rouzeu
are w. T. Walker, ex-president, L. c.
Slime, ex-treasurer and Levi Horner,
ex-medical examiner. RouzeH was the
only officer of the organization who was
retained when the reorganization was
made and the organization is standing
behind him in the present fight.
The charge upon which he is being
tried is using the mails to defraud. The
trial will not be completed today.

SEEMS TO BE T. I'll. Balm
Who is Moving for Rev. Charles M.
Sheldon to Take a "Rest''

There have been rumors to the eff
feet that the Rev. Charles NJ Sheldon
has contemplated resigning his charge
as pastor of the Central Congregational
church.
meeting Of the congregation is to be
held this evening to consider the case
1t was reported that the pastor would
tender his resignation on Thursday ev-
ening at the regular church prayer
meeting. 1t is said certain of the mem
bers objected to Mr. Sheldon'S methods
in conducting meetings at the church.
This is stoutly denied by other members
of the church. One attendant at the
church said concerning the matter:
Mr.. Sheldon has tried to adopt his
theories on practical Christianity in his
congregation, and the meeting to be
held by the congregation is called for
this purpose"
Rev. Mr.. Sheldon. being asked as to
his intention of resigning, said:
Il do not now intend to resign. I know
nothing about the case L shall not re-
sign. L had not heard of a meeting in
contemplation"
Thomas H. Balm, who is a prominent
member of the church and who was
named as one of the ones who opposed
Mr.: Sheldon's methods, said:
THE fact is that Mr.. Sheldon is run
down. He is threatened with nervous
prostration. He is a tireless worker
and whatever he does is done with a
Will. He is not as strong as he looks.
I understand that he contemplated rest
ing for awhile, and that he wished to
resign. The meeting to be held is to
consider the case. L do not think the
people would accept his resignation.
But he needs a rest, and think we will
give it to him. What l said in the pray
er meeting was not in the least a criti-
cism. 1 think he is doing all right
Mr.. Bain's remarks referred to in the
prayer meeting were to the effect that
he considered evangelical work very i'm
portant, and suggested to the pastor
that he do more of it. Mr.. Sheldon's
methods of conducting evening services
are distinctly novel, and they seem to
please his congregation. He reads an
original serial story on Sunday even
ings which always has a good moral in
it, and arouses more earnest Christian
thought than many a sermon.
There seems to have been a misunder-
standing about the intent of Mr.. Bain's
remarks
Mr.. Sheldon is an extremely popular
minister, and any proposition that he
leave Topeka will be met by mighty
protest. There are too few preachers
nowadays of vigorous views and brill
liant ideas.

Consumption Cured.
BROUGHT BACK FROM THE CRl

BkOUGHT bAOk FKOM THE NTRAVE.
Last November Mr.. Joseph James,
painter, of 325 w. Pearl ST., Indianapo-
lis, Ind, was at deaths door with quick
consumption. Wasted to skeleton;
his lungs a mass of liberation; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was kept in a constant
stupor with opium A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised its
continued use. Mr.. James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and in February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,
and his weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost a miracle
