Who Gives Csurse of Treatment Free to
Every One Afflicted with Heart and
Nervous Troubles.
The following highly complimentary
resolutions endorsing the skill of DR..
Miles are published for the benefit Of
persons afflicted with nervous, heart
or other similar chronic diseases.
Those who have vainly tried their
home physicians should by all means
send for his free course of treatment
while they have the opportunity.
"Resolved, first. that we the offieial mem-
bers OF the St Joseph Annual Conference OF
the United Brethren, would return to DR..
benefit resulting from his skillful Treatment in
thus restoring to us our pastor who is again
prepared for active labor in the church, and in
the cause of his Master"
:, Resolved, second, that we will pray our
Heavenly Father to long spare the life and
health OF the doctor, that he may be permitted
to be blessing to thousands OF his tellowmen,
rs sklllfni practitioner.
A thousand other highly f1attering testimon-
lals as 10 DE-. Miles moral character and unuS-
ual skill, from Bishops, Physicians, Clergymen,
pc sn Of @
have aided him in his Investigations, every
state, Territory, Canada and Mexico are repre-
| sented among his thousands OF patients.
But what speaks louder than any
testimonials is the fact that the Doc
tors very unusual success in treating
nervous and heart troubles, enables
him to send a SO so course of medi-
cine, consisting of a large bottle, tab
lets, pills, ete, FREE OF CHARGE, to
any afflicted person. This very few
physicians will do.
Do not fail to write him for an ex-
animation blank and free treatment
before it Is too late. Address Doctor
Miles at 50 State ST., Chicago. Ill. He
keeps all correspondence strictly con-
hdential. He uses plain envelopes and
plain wrappers for packages contain

Very Much Mistaken.

1t could not be further off from fact.
In the first instance it was lust, not
liquor, and IN the latter case If liquor
was the cause, it was Minnesota

its conclusions Republican.

Organization.

lopCNAol AA~ (AS 10y ~N-'
NEWARK, Dec. s, 1ss9.-Two hundred
delegates from forty-six lodges of the
knights and Ladies of Honor in this State
met at Jacoby's Hall, Wednesday, and
decided to cut loose from the control of
the grand lodge and form a new organiza-
ton. This course was outlined in a re-
port from a special committee which had
been appointed at a previous meeting to
recommend some plan of procedure.
1t was decided to call the new organiza-
ton the knights and Ladies of Protection,
and to apply for a charter for the State
organization at once. These officers We're
elected
President, Oscar Wiener; vice-Presi-
dent, De Forest P. Lozier; Secretary,
Ferdinand Kitchener. all of Newark, and
Treasurer. Conrad Lutz, of Union. The
officers were empowered to take such
steps as may be necessary to complete the
organization.
by this action, the order of Knights and
Ladies of Honor is virtually wiped out in
the State. The si~xty-three New Jersey
lodges have had a membership of about
1000. Not only was the bulk of the indi-
vidual membership in the State represent
ed by those prominent in the movement,
that a majority of the lodges unrepresent-
ed will give in their allegiance at a meet
ing to be held next week in Jersey CITY.
There are secessionists from the X and

is expected that they will with the New
jersey rebels form the nucleus of a ma
tional organization.

protested that rhe greater part of the sum
thus raised, which would amount to over
$4,000 a year, would go to paying large

in favor of it. A per capita tax of fifty
cents per member was also provided and
it was recommended that the reserve
fund be under the supervision of a Board
of Directors to be elected by subordinate
lodges.

LADIES HAVE NO VOICE
Mr.. Gothberg Complains Of
the Way Hospital Site
Was Selected.

Mr.. Ernest Gothberg, a member of the
German Hospital and Dispensary Fund
Association, takes exception to the man
ner in which the recent monthly meeting
of the society was conducted. At that
meeting it was decided to purchase a
piece of property. 200x20o feet, at Ludlow
street, New street and Rutgers avenue,
for s., 600, on which to erect the hospital
at some future time.
Mr.. Gothberg claims that a motion was
made at a previous meeting by Pastor
Gottlieb Andreae and carried that all
member of the Ladies' Aid Societies
would be authorized to vote on the ques-
notified to attend the general meeting.
Mr.. Gothberg claims that none of the
ladies were notified, and, Of course, were
not present to vote on the question. He
said that in view of the fact that the
Aid Societies raised the largest part Of
the fund, they should at least have a
voice in the manner of it's disposal.
A number of the ladies' think it strange
thai the Board of Directors should have
neglected to notify them of the impor-
tant step to be taken, especially as a
motion granting them representation had
been adopted.
Mr.. Joseph Abel, one of the officers,
said last evening, that In SO important
a matter the presence of ladies would
only tend to hinder the contamination of
the deal, and for that reason they were
not notified. He added that it was doubt
full if such a motion had been passed.
Mr.. Gothberg and a few other mem
bers consider the purchase Of a site at
this time an injudicious move. They
would much prefer to have the 5000 fund
stand in a savings institution at interest
until such time as the society is in a
position to build. They claim that the
proposed site will not increase in value
for a number of years, and if purchased
will lie idle on their hands with In an
nual tax bill to pay.
A member recently stated that to OBJ
viate the tax feature 1t would only be
necessary to erect a sign on the property
reading. For Hospital Purposes"
Mr.. Gothberg in reply to his said that
he had made inquiries at the City Col
~lector's office, and had been informed
that the property would be subject to a
tax until the erection of the hospital.
1t is hardly possible that the society
will be able to build for at least ten
years.

Am
OF Music.

ssWhy Smith Left Home" the current
attraction at the Academy of Music, Is
one of the best samples of George II
B~roadnurst's work. This piece as given
by the present which is the
same that appeared at the Strand The
atre. London, and the Madison Square
Theatre, New York, during the present
season, affords one of the best and most
enjoyable entertainments that has been
seen ait the Academy this year. The man
who can sit through the performance ano
come away without having been relieved
of care during its presentation u pc
long to that bilious contingent whose men
tai ~spectacles are tinted with the deepest
indigo. Amy one in search Of an enjoyable
evening could not do better than to pay II
a visit.
The engagement Of 1.-The Sign of the
Cross" which will be seen in this city
at the Academy of Music, Monday, De-
cember II, bids fair to be one of the great
theatrical events of the season. The sale
of seats has been very large and unusual
interest has been displayed not only by
regular theatre-goers. but by many whose
faces are not familiar at the box offices
of theatres. The endorsement of promi-
nent divines, both in England and in this
country, many of whom have written let
tiers OF confmendatfon about the play as
well as in some instances preaching of
the influence for good it exerts over its
hearers, is, in a great measure, responsible
for the presence in the theatre of these
people.
''The Sign of the Cross" is said to be an
eloquent answer to Ingersol's lectures,
which were filled with ridicule Of the
Christian faith and of those who believe
in 1t. The drama, we are told, shows the
power and beauty. the refining and civil
ling influence, of a faith that lived and
increased in spite of the fortunes and
b%utcheries which Nero inflicted on all that
were suspected Of belonging to the des-
pissed sect.
The frivolous and corrupt lives of the
Patrician pagans and the simple purity
of the long suffering Christians, ending
in their tragic but fearless martyrdom in
the arena. furnish the light and shade OF
what is. We are told, a faithful picture of
the times. The company, headed by
Charles Dalton, the powerful young heroic
actor, is said to be g t~heroughly COM
petent one. composed OF actors well known
in England.
In order that all classes Of theatre-goers
may be able 10 attend the performance at
the Academy OIL MUSIC. aalu 10 avail tHEIn-
selves of the opportunity to see the very
best plays and finest companies, a reduc-
ton in the present prices will be made,
