CHICAGO, May 26.-By a close vote n

which since 1872 have been under the ban
of the church..
Preceding the vote to accept the minor
ity report which recommends that no ac-
ton be taken, the conference was at times
in a state of wild disorder, due mainly to
attempts to amend the section of the
book of discipline under discussion. Some
exceedingly sharp language was INDUCED
in by the angry delegates before the vote
was taken.
At the opening of the session, Dr.. B. p.
Raymond, of Boston, took the floor to
speak on the majority report. THE reg
ulation itself is a dead letter over a large
part of our church." he said. TT cult

A CunneI of the n.uegrass.

a cunnel of the Blue Grass
Lay grOaning on his cot,
There was lots of woman's nursing,
There were julepS cool or hot;
And a pistol lay beside him
AS he tossed and tumbled there,
With the handle quite inviting
For his fingers long and spare.
Then there came a pale reporter.
Who beheld the ready I'm.
AS it caught the shining splendor
OF the glory of the sun;
And he paused and mutely wondered
Ger the wherefore and the why.
Till the proud and naughty cunnel
Caught the question in his eye.
Feebly then he raised the weapon
And he ratified as he said:

Is a gentleman when dead;
So / hang fas' to NAL gun sah"-

ease.
Many people suffer from piles,
because after trying the many To-
tions. salves and ointments with
Out relief or cure, have come to the
conclusion that a surgical opera
ton is the only thing left TO try
and rather than submit to the
shock and risk to life of an oper
ation, prefer TO suffer on. For
tunately this is no longer necess-
airy, the Pyramid Flle Cure, a new
preparation, cures every form of
piles without pain. inconvenience
or detention from business.
1t is in the form of suppositories,
easliy applied, absolutely free
from opium, cocaine or any injur-
lous substance whatever, and no
matter how severe the pain, gives
lnstnt relief, not by deadening the
nerves Of the parts but rather by
its healing. soothing effect upon
the congested, sensitive mem
branes.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is the
most effective, the safest and most
extensively sold of any Pile Cure
that has ever been placed before
the public, and this reputation
has been secured by reason of its
extraordinary meria and the rea-
sonable price at. which it is sold,
all druggists selling it at so cents
per package, and in many cases a
single package has been sufficient.
A person takes serious chances
in ~neglecting a simple. case of piles
as the trouble soon becomes deep
seated and chronic, and very fire.
quently develops into fatal, in
curable rectal diseases, like fistu-
la and rectal ulcers.
Any druggist will tell you the
Pyramid is the safest, most sat-
isfactory pile cure made.

work which they have accomplished

in the future. The nursery was start

American Locomotive Building.

AS an instance of the speed with
which work can be executed by one
of our great American locomotive
firms, it is worth noting that an order
was given on Dec. 16, 1897, for forty
Mogul locomotives for two Russian
railways. The first of the forty was
erected and tried under steam on Jan.
q 5. 1898, three weeks after the receipt
Of the order, and was finished. ready
TO dismantle and pack for shipment
one week later. The last engine was
competed on Feb. 13. The forty en-.
gines were then constructed in about
eight weeks. besides twenty-eight ad.
ditional engines on other orders built
in the works, wholly or partially, and
shipped during the same period. No
wonder the Americans have gained
a reputation for smartness.-Cassier's s
