The Rev. IrI r. Hicks Almanac.

There is no comparison between for
mer editions, and this splendid Alma
nae for 1900, now ready. Printed in
beautiful colors on much finer paper,
it's 1876 pages are packed with invalua-
BILE information on storms, astronomy
and meteorology. 1t is illustrated with
nearly 200 finest half tones and other
engravings. This superb book would
sell anywhere for fifty cents, but it
costs only 25c a copy, and every sub
scriber to Rev. Irl r. Hicks now IA
nous paper, Word and Works, at $l.O
a wear, receives this elegant Almanac
az premium. Word and Works is a
recognized leader among the best fami
| ly and scientific journals, while moth
ing of it's kind can compare with the
Hicks Almanac. One dollar year is
nominal price for such unique and
useful publications. Professor Hicks
has Justly, and of necessity, withdrawn
Ifis storm and weather forecasts from
all free almanacs, having generously
given his time and labor free for near
ly twenty years. Word and Works

Governor Tyler's Message.

Governor Tyler is putting in all his
spare time now working on his mes
sage 1t is understood that the gov
ernor will urge upon the general as
sembly the Importance Of at once en-
larging the penitentiary building, in
order to relieve the crowded condition
now prevailing there.
Another feature will be a recommen-
dation for compensation for the mem
bers of the board of fisheries, who do
not now receive any pay for their SER
vices, the president and secretary being
the only two members for whom sala-
ries are provided.
The present board has placed the
oyster industry in this State on a pay
ing basis, whereas, only few years
| ago the enforcement of the oyster law
was burden upon the treasury. Th'
revenue from this source during th'
present fiscal year will be vey large.
1t is not positively known, but tn
impression prevails that the governo
will recommend the amending of tn
land grabbers' law. whereby it's harsh
ness will, to some extent, be eliminate'
without impairing the efficiency of tn
law to any great extent. The presen
satisfactory condition of the State
finances is largely due to the opers
tions of this law.

champ Clark Talks.

Representative Champ Clark, OF
Missouri, in speaking of the offer OF
the Treasury Department to purchase
$25, 600. 900 worth of U. s. bonds, said:
ut is the same old story. The gam
blers of Wall street have over played
themselves and need money. Other
wise panic would be forced. When
ever they get in a tight place they ap-
peal to the Secretary of the Treasury
and he always helps them. Officials OF
the administration declare that there
is money enough in circulation to car
ry on the legitimate business of the
country and then turn right around
and help these gamblers under the guise
of relieving a stringency. All sorts OF
calamities may happen in the west,
creating sore need for an increase OF
circulation, but the appeal of that sec
t1on are never listened to. | notice
that it has been advocated that the
law set a limit to the operations Oi
Wall street speculations. 1t is not a
bad idea. They should not be allowed
to everyday themselves and then rur
to the government for relief. The law
ought to make them play limit game
or table stakes, just like other gamblers
do in a poker game"

The Military Institute.

The board of visitors Of the Virgin

studies at the school November ~.
The school has been closed on account
of typhoid epidemic which prevailed
there previous to October 16.
The report Of the State board OF
health on the outbreak of typhoid
fever at the institute states that the
buildings and grounds were in excel
lent sanitary condition, except some O
the plumbing. The water supply ii
pure but had probably been contaml
mated at certain points. The outbreal
was due to no local cause, but was I'm

fected the water supply, is the opinion
of the board.
The sewerage system of the schoe

OLD HYMNS.
There's lots of music in 'em-the hymns
0f lOpO AGO.

There's lots of music in 'em-the hymns
of long ago;
An when some gray haired brother
sings the ones used to know,
I sorter want to take hand II think
of the days gone by,
ION Jordon's stormy banks | stand
and cast wistful eye!"
There's lots O. music in em-those dear
sweet hymns of old,
With visions bright of lands of light,
and shining streets OF gold.
And 1 hear 'em ringing-singiDg,
where mem'ry dreaming stands
"From Greenland's icy mountains to
India 8 coral strands
They seem to sing forever of h0lier,
sweeter days,
When the lilies of the love Of God
bIoomed white in all the ways;
And want to hear their music from
the old tune meetin' s rise
Till 81 can read my title clear to man
sions in the skies"
We never needed singin' books in then
old days-we knew
The words-the tunes of every one, tht
dear old hymn book through
We didn' t have no trumpets them-nt
organs built for show;
We only sang to praise the Lord "frOn
whom all blessings fow."
And so, love the old hymns, and wheI
my time shall come
Before the light has left me, and m.
singing lips IRE dumb.
If 1 can only hear 'em then I'll pas
without sigh
ITO Canaan fair and happy land
where my possessions lie ~

Statement By Candidate John R. Mclean.

John Randolph Mclean, the defeat
ed candidate for Governor of Ohio on
the Democratic ticket. has given out
a staten ant. Nash, he says, is chosen
governor, but by minority of $4,000
of the total votes cast for Mclean and
Jones. The result, he says, is both as
founding and gratifying, and shows
in the attitude of the people warning
to the Administration.
He expresses sorrow for the poor man
and the man not altogether sure OF his
position in the financial world. He
arraigns the trusts and the systems Of
combinations and contradictions.
Mckinley, he says. should leave the
lines he has been on for the past year
counsel with better men and get bet
ter surroundings. He should throw
off the baneful influence of Hanna
The war in the Philippines is given
scoring.
"The rule of proportion, taking Obi
on basis, will crush Mckinley if he
renominated by the Republican pal
| ty," says Mclean.
! He regrets that the laboring peopl
lost an opportunity to rebuke thel
enemies throwing away votes on Jone
who, be says, could have done nothin
J if elected.

Fault Finding.

One of the easiest things In the
world is to find fault with other peo
ple. But how difficult it is to see our
own faults; to understand our weak
points, and to remember that, as we
see faults in others, they see faults as
bad, and perhaps worse, in us. Let
us be charitable and do as the great
artist, who painted picture OF hli
monarch, upon whose brow there wal
a scar. He placed his king with elbow
resting on e table and his head sup
ported by lis hand, but with finge
covering the scar. Let us endeavor t.
place the finger of charity over tn
scars of our brethren.

Is What Mr.. Carnegie Says Of
The One in the TransVaal
AND OURS IN PHILIPPINES.
1t is Worse for Us to Attack the
FiIipinos than for England to Go
for the BOers--Pretty Wedding
at Coyington.

Andrew Carnegie and Mrs. Carne
gle have returned to America from
the old country. Mr. Carnegie ap
pears in good health. He said to a
reporter that the stories that he In
tended to become subject OF Great
Britain were without foundation, for
he said, where mans treasure is,
there his heart is also"
Speaking of the present war between
England and the Beers, he said:
1.-The war against the Beers is most
infamous and unjust, and it was
brought about by England's lust fol
domain. 1t is on par with our attack
on the poor Filipinos. These two at
tacks are disgrace to both branches
of our race.
"The people of the Transvaal and
the Orange Free State have a right te
rule themselves. One war is an attack
on an existing and the other on an en-
bryonic republic.
s.It is worse for us to attack the
Filipinos than for England to attack
the Beers, for we fall from a greater
height, as we believed in government
by the consent of the governed.
"The war we are waging in the Phil
ippines has caused sorrow on the part
of our friends, rejoicing on the part Of
our enemies. The latter feel that they
have us trapped at least. Our friends
feel that we are false to the great prln
cipies of the rights of man, which, you
know, are the essence of republican
ism.
1.-THE best men in England have
spoken , .gainst the war in the Trans
vaal, and everywhere it is deplored ex'
cept by those whose interests are serv
ed by it. They are a small clique Of
jingoes, headed by a statesman, L an
sorry to say, who sees In the war
chance to fortify his position.
Mr.. Carnegie entertained decidedly
optimistic views of the business out
look and the prosperity of the country
He said:
II can only look at the business out
look here from abroad, which is some
times q good point of view. l believ
that nothing can stop 1900 from beinI
a year of great prosperity, always pro
vided that in view of the present e1
cited state of the world and the DANCE
of war begetting war, the United State
keeps out of the struggle. Now tina
this country has foreign possession
There is more danger than ever"

Louu Doctorinq Means Wrong Doctoring.

Long Doctoring Means Wrong Doctoring.
If you are afflicted with chronic and
lingering disease it is safe to conclude
that you are doctoring on wrong lines.
If proper medicine could not overcome
your disease, the disease would long
ago have overcome you. The trouble
is that you have been treated for some
thing wholly foreign to your complaint,
and the medicine either has had no
effect or has made you worse. The
wise thing to do is to consult DR..
Greene, 35 w. 14th St., New YORK
City, the discoverer of that greatest OF
all remedies, DR.. Greene's Nervura.
Call on him if you can, but if that is
inconvenient, write him fully about
your case. You can tell him in letter
many things that you might forget IL
personal interview. 1t will cost yor
nothing, as DIR. Greene makes no charg
for consultation and advice.
