LINCOLN, April 2s.-In the case OF Rev.

curia to Washington and from Washington
TO Rome. | deem it my duty to make known
TO you that by letters Of the sacred congre-
cation OF propaganda, under date OF July
., 1898, the apostolic delegation at Wash
ington was empowered as a court of last
resort to hear and to determine the said case
Of Rev. o. n. Turgeon; that on February
II Of the current year his excellency, the
most reverend apostolic delegate for and in
the name Of the holy see, did. in the afore-
mentioned case, render a decision by which
Rev. o. y. Turgeon was suspended from the
sacred ministry and sentenced to three
months confinement in a monastery, besides
mourning other severe penalties which 1t Is
not eXpedient to enumeTate in this place;

him from the church. This final and SUI
preme act of the delegation ends the case
as far as the ecclesiastical authority is con-
cerned.
| have also to make known to you that /
have appointed Rev. Charles A. Stricken to
the pastoral charge of the Colon mission and
have given him letters by which he is ac-
credited to you. But as Rev. o. N. Turgeon
continues to occupy the r%ectory at Colon in
defiance of all law, and as furthermore he
enters and holds services in the several
churches composing the Colon mission to
the injury and annoyance of the aforemen-
toned Charles A. Stricken, the pastor in
charge, and to the detriment Of ecclesiastical
discipline, l have instituted a suit in forcible
detainer against Rev. Turgeon and will in
woke the authority of the civil courts to re-
strain him from entering or holding services
in the above mentioned churches and from
in any way interfering with Rev. Charles
A. Stricken in the discharge Of his duties.
In the meantime, l admonish you not TO
hold any communion in things spiritual
with the unhappy priest but rather to pray
for him that his eyes being opened by di-
vine grace he may see whittier his stubborn
and disobedient conduct is leading him.

THE CAUSE OF
DYSPEPSIA,
Loss Of Vitality Known to be the Parent Of this Dread
Disease-The Method Of Cure that Has
Proved Most Successful.
From the Republican, Scranton, Penna.

The most common of all human ailments
is deranged digestion: the most agtrayating
disease, inherited by man, dyspepsia. In
sdous in its nature, varied in its forms it
fortunes its victims, battles the skill of ply
scians and the power of medicine.
The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack of
vitality; the absence Of nerve force; the loss
of the DEMONSTRATING elements of the blood.
1t is a truism that no organ can properly
nutriment fails: when it is weakened on one
the stomach is robbed of the nourishment
demanded by nature, assimilation ceases un-
natural gases are generated, the entire sys-
tenn responds to the discord.
A practical illustration of the symptoms
and torture of dyspepsia is furnished by the
case of Joseph I. Vandyke, 440 Hickory st.,
Scranton, Pa.
In telling his story Mr.. Vandyke says:
Five years ago, | was afflicted with
trouble of the stomach, which was very
aggravating. | had no appetite, could not
enjoy myself at any time, and especially
was the trouble severe when | awoke IN the
morning. did not know what the ailment
was but it became steadily worse and was
in constant misery.

diagnosed the case as catarrh of the stomach.

Business Conditions.

X. G. Dun & Cos weekly review of
trade for the past week says: The state
of foreign trade justifies confidence
rather than apprehension. 1t is the
season for the lowest exports of staples,
and their prices this year are extremely
low, but the Unprecedented foreign de-
mand for manufactured products so far
compensates that the excess of exports
in March was heavy and apparently has
been in April. In three weeks at New
York exports have been b per cent less
and imports II 4 per cent more than last
year, which would leave a heavy balance
if other returns were of the same char
acter. The cotton manufacture has
made little change and the strikes fol
lowing the advance in wages given ap.
pear to have benefited manufacturers
and curtaled the supplies of goods.
Failures for the week have been 1S4 in
