The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages. and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation Of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in
its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list

THE WOODMAN PICNIC.
Il Pleasant Occasion and En-
.joyed 6y all Present.

The 10th day of August, 1899,
will be long remembered by those
who attended the Woodman Pic
mic given in honor of Cedar camp,
No. 70, at what is known as the
Steward place. A more beau
tiful grove would be hard to find
with the many natural advantages
than this one, ,--plenty of good wa,
ter and shade for both man and
beast. The day was pleasant
nice breeze blowing from the
northeast and early in the day
the picnicers began to assemble
until there were between 200 and
800 people on the ground, many
coming from a distance.
After the usual greetings were
exchanged between lifelong and
new found friends, the camp was
called to order by commander j.
M. Yoder, who after the usual
camp greeting and prayer by Rev.
w. w. Ratchford, in few we'll
chosen remarks introduced the
Hon. ID. +. Finley, of Yorkville,
as the speaker of the day. Mr.,
Finley's remarks were confined
to Woodcraft and its advantages.
During its eight years history
over 5000 camps have been insti
tuted and over 10000 certif-
icates have been issued to mem
bers, three million dollars have
been paid to beneficiaries and
over 600 monuments have been
placed at the graves of deceased
members.
The social degree, with other
features, makes the order a genu
inc fraternity. 1t is also a great
stimulous to religion, as no per
son is allowed to join unless he
believes in the Sumpreme Being.
Less than year ago Cedar Camp,
No. 10, was organized at Van
Wyck with about a dozen mem
bers. Now it can boast of having Q
about so; with still brighter pros
poets before it.
The program, as first intended.
was not carried out, owing to tn e
absence of some of the speakers.
who were unable to attend.
After Mr.. Finley got through
speaking Commander Ioder read
poem in his impressive style
and the camp sang several songs
appropriate to the accession.
Dinner was then announced. A
table 100 yards long was spread
with all the good things that &C
to appease the inner man, and
enough to have fed at least siy
hundred people. The barbecueC
meet and soups were pronounced
by all TO have been the best they
had ever eaten. Those who haC
charge of this part of the pro
gram certainly knew what the,
were doing.
The afternoon was spent il
pleasant conversation. There wa,
not single thing happened dur
ing the day to mar this memoria

The baccalaureate sermon yesterday
before the graduating class of the Ora I'd
Junction High school, was one of the
most interesting diseourses heard in this
city in a long time.
The sermon was delivered by Rev. G.
E. b. Ward, pastor of the First Presby-
terian church of this city in the Park
opera house.
The Park opera house was filed with
the friends OF the students and the citi-
zens. the gallery containing even fair
crowd, while all the seats down stairs
were occupied.
Rev. Ward is college man having
graduated from Princeton Seminary.
one OF the fnest theological schools in
America aud he has great sympathy for
the struggling student and for the young
man who has a purpose in life.
He took for his text "a Life's Pur
pose" or in other words revised YER
sion of the text II Press on to the
Goal"
The riain and fixed point OF his ser
mon was that everyone should have d.
revtion to their life. That they should
nave fixed purpose or goal in life and
chat all things ehould subordinate
themselves to that purpose. He con-
tended that the young men Of America
had brains. braun, muscle and enthusi-
asm but they must have direction to
their lives.
1t was mastery sermon and the
Sentinel is only sorry that it cannot give
more extended account Of it than the
limited space permits. 1t was full OF
nope and life for the student. 1t marked
life's pathway for him, which, if he or
or she follows, cannot but end in peace
and happiness. 1t is not SO much what
ID sought for, as to seek.
During the whole time Of the sermon
the closest attention was given the
speaker and notning could have been
more complimentary to the orator Of the
occasion.
There was music by the male quartet,
Messrs. Marsh, Ramey, and Clark bro
thers, solo by Mrs. Cropsey and several
choruses by The High school scholars.
All the ministers OF the city partici.
pated in tho exercises and it was day
Of gladsomeness throughout.

CARS WE'RE DERAILED.

Ivanhoe-The westboupd passenger
train on the Colorado Midland, carrying
the special excursion car from Leadvilie,
was wrecked at Ivanhoe at 7:3O o'clock
this morning.
At the time of the accident the train
was running at the rate of Is miles an
hour and luckily occurred on a level
stretch OF country directly in front Of
the section house.
The accident was due to rail which
was broken in twain for distance of
feet and snapped in two with such force
that the broken rail was hurled dis
tance OF 35 feet
Engineer Nelson heard the rail break
and at once reversed the levers, at the
same time putting on the air. The bag
gage and mail car and the day coach
left the track, running along on the ties
for over fifty yards but marvelously not
upsetting.
As soon as order was restored investi-
CATION showed that none Of the passen-
gers and train crew were injured beyond
a few slight scratches.
