equal voice in the government of the
church into a set of resolutions at Recital

session tomorrow. Equal representation
right away IS what the laymen ask.

SUMNER RESORTS.
WARM SPRINGS,

would provide for their extradition with
out putting the government to the ex-
pense and trouble of taking its witnesses
TO New York and proving case or prob
able cause against the defendants and
then allowing the defendants to go into
their defense, nor is it the intention of
the department to take such action un-
less Congress shall fail 40 pass the bill
referred to.
THE reasons for not proceeding in con-
formity with the decision of Judge
Brown" says Mr.. Griggs, ARE that to do
SO would require a very large expenditure
Of time and money and great difficulty
in securing the attendance of the govern
ments witnesses, and would require the
government to expose before the trial the
evidence on which il relies to convict the
defendants. An additional reason Is that
the government does not believe the law
does require. or should require, such a
course to be taken where defendants have
been duly indicted in one district of the
United States and then take refuge In am
other"
Mr.. Griggs denies that he ever stated
publicly or for publication that the findings
OF Judge Brown was unwarranted by the
law or facts, although he saws, But [
am of the opinion that the decision Of
Judge Brown in overruling the finding and
action OF Commissioner Shields was I'M
warranted by the law"
In regard to the possibility of correcting
the error on appeals Mr.. Griggs says it
is matter of doubt land certainly is a
matter of such great delay as to render
the efficient prosecution of the defendants
practically impossible"
From the above it would seem to be the
intention Of the department of justice to
shift on Congress the responsibility of Sc
curing the trial of the Gaynors After
long and apparent inexplicable delays in
the prosecution of Capt. Carter and his
associates at the one end of Pennsvlva-
mia avenue 1t now seems to be the determ-
ination that equally long and inexplic-
able delays shall take place at the other
end, with the result that responsibility is
to be divided between the two and thus
fall to the ground, while the prosecution
becomes impossible because of the statute
of limitations

FOR WELL PEOPLE.
An Easy Way to Keep Well.

1t is easy to keep we'll if we would only
observe each day few simple rules of
health.
The all important thing is to keep the
stomach right and to do this it is not nee
essary 10 diet or to follow a set rule or
bill of fare. Such pampering sim
ply makes a capricious appetite and a
feeling that certain favorite articles of
food must be avoided.
Prof. Wiechold gives pretty good ad-
vice on this subject, he says: II am 6S
years old and have never had a serious
illness, and at the same time my life has
been largely an indoor one, but l early
discovered that the way to keep healthy
was to keep a healthy stomach, not by
eating bran crackers or dieting of any
sort; on the contrary, / always EAT what
my appetite Graves, but for the past eight
years l have made It daily practice TO
take one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets after each meal and l attribute
my robust health for man of my age to
the regular daily use Of Stuart's Tablets.
My physician first advised me to use
them because he said they were perfectly
harmless and were not a secret patent
medicine. but contained only the natural
digestives, peptones and diastase, and af-
ter using them a few weeks i have never
ceased to thank him for his advice.
/ honestly believe the habit of taking
Stuarfs Dyspepsia Tablets after meals
is the real health habit, because their use
brings health 90 the sick and ailing and
preserves health to the well and strong"
Men and women past so years of age
need a safe digestive after meals TO in
sure q perfect digestion and to ward off
disease, and the safest, best known and
most widely used is Stuarfs Dyspepsia
Tablets.
They are found in every well regulated
