An Argument by Eminent
Divines Causes
The Senior
To Drop Out.

Reverends Atwater and Johnson have Of
late been discussing the text on which
an eminent colored divine preached on
Christmas Day at Gamers Station:
How Hardly Shall a Rich Man Enter
Into the Kingdom of Heaven"
The Senior arrived at the conclusion
that the Rev. Ransom Johnson was
right, when he summed up his final re-
ply: Eur fear Nv any argument wild de
Postle Peter at de gate I'm er gwine

mer to drop his fish hook in ''The Stron-

guarantee that only the pest stock

1T is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
The Act Requiring Railroads to Furnish
Free transportation to shippers of Live
Stock NuIl and Void

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 12.-The SUI
preme court Saturday in the case Of
the Atchison, Topeka d. Santa Fe
Railway company against /. =. Camp
bell, error from Sedgwick county,
held the act of the legislature requir-
ing railroads TO furnish free trans
portation TO shippers of live stock to
be unconstitutional. The court SAYS:
This is a deprivation of property
without due process of law and a de-
NAL of the equal protection of the
laws and is, therefore, unconstitu-
tional and void under the fourteenth
amendment to the constitution" The
railroads have furnished shippers of
one car load free transportation to-
market, the shipper paying his fare
home. For two ear loads or more
the shipper is carried free both ways.
This is the rule which has been OBJ
served for years and is now in force.
The legislature of 1897 passed the law
declared unconstitutional II was
brief, providing that shippers of one
car load should be carried free both
ways. The opinion was written by
Chief Justice Doster.

An Interesting Letter.

Every body enjoys u good letter; and
when it is entertaining, instructive
and breezy" it puts the recipient in
an agreeable frame of mind. Scores
of letters similar to the subjoined are
received by Warmers Safe Cure Co.,
of Rochester. n. Y, and they respect
fully request you to read this. Our
word for it, you will not regret it.
In 1881 l was told by two of the
best physicians in Boston, DR.. w
and DR.. B, that could not expect
to live a year; that L had Bright's
Disease. At that time | heard Of q
man whe was supposed to have been
at deaths door and who was stopping
or dying at the Commonwealth Hotel
NOW the Lahgham, ct the south end
OF Boston. His wife, In reading to
him, came across q Warner advertise
ment and got . bottle OF the ga fe Cure.
Her husband commenced to take the
medicine, saying nothing to his doctor
until after two or three weeks. His
water commenced to show signs Of
Improvement and the man was able to
get up and walk about. When he
found that he was really getting bet
ter, he told the doctor what he had
done aud dismissed him, continuing
the medicine, and in three months
this dying man was about his usual
duties, those of an expressman, and
was finally cured. On the strength of
of this cure 1 got bottle and dropped
all other medicines. My doctors sent
me to Kansas as good place to 90,
out of their Jurisdiction, and to die.
They gave my wife medicine to carry,
enough to last until 1 should die. and
which | left at home. carried one
dozen bottles of Warmers Safe Cure,
and went to a small place near
Junction City, where I had q cousin
who is a physician. | had him ex-
anime my water every day, and after
u week he found Improvement, and
honestly acknowledged that was on
the road to recovery. And l did re-
cover, although it took o long time
because l was badly Off, and / took
over one hundred bottles in the course
of year and a half or two years.
These facts can be proven by any one
who knew me then, and will willing
ly write to any one who may desire to
know from me direct and give them
ofmy case. Very truly yours.

Fire at the Hroolslvn NAVY Yard.

New York, Feb. 12.-Building No 7
in the Brooklyn navy yard, occupied
by the electrical equipment depart
ment, was destroyed by fire yester-
day. The loss is 100000, equally di-
vided between the building and ma
chinery. A large quantity of valu-
able records were saved, which Ad-
miral Philip said would have involved
task of about ten years to replace.
The fire is believed to have been
caused by a defective electric light
wire and started about two a. m.
Admiral Philip himself took charge
of the forces that fought the flames
and received several cuts about the
face from broken glass.

SOUTHERN WAR CLAIMS.
A Rough Estimate of the Bills Introduced
into Congress Figures Up to an Aggre-
gate of 82OO,0OO,OOO.

Washington, Feb. 12.-The demands
on the treasury at this session in
the way of claim and pension bills
probably exceed anything known in
the history of congress. A rough es-
innate of the claim bills, exclusive of
pensions, introduced in both houses,
figures up to an aggregate of over
5000, 100000. And, in addition, the
pension bills, if they should all be-
come laws, would add much more
than that sum to the pension roll.
Among the ancient claim bills reg

Only a few years ago the joke about
the forecasts of the weather bureau
ran neck and neck with the mother
in law joke. 1t was the common say
ing that the forecasts went by con-
traries. But perhaps the public is not
even yet aware of the vast improve
ment that has taken place in the ser
vice of recent years. and of now large
a proportion of the forecasts are veri-
fed The organization of the service
is complete. Every telegraph and tel
e phone station in the country is prac-
tically in touch with the bureau in
Washington. The number of regular
stations in the United States. the Gulf
islands, and Mexico. is enormous. and
statistics show that eighty per cent
of all predictions are literally fulfilled.
There has not been a destructive ma
rine storm anywhere in the United
States for more than six years that
was not preceded by the warnings of
danger, or a severe cold wave of which
the farmers were not given notice in
advance.
