IT MADE A DIFFERENCE.
Dramatic Critics Did Not
Agree.

From the Daily Grind, May 8, 1899, re.
lated by the Indianapolis Press: Miss
Violet Florida Waters, in the amateur per.
Torrance by the Histrion club of Camille
last night displayed an ability and marvel
Gus command of stage technique that many
a professional might envy. 1t is safe to pre-
dict for this gifted youpng lady that if she
ever choose to adopt the stage as a career
her name will become one, of the famous
ones in dramatic history"
From the Daily Grind, May II, 1900:
"The Plugalong repertoire company opened
at the opera house last night in Camille.
Seldom has the dear old chestnut been SO
badly done-the worst offender being Violet
Florida Waters, who punched holes in the
title role and frazzled its edges in manner
that plainly showed her to need years and
years of training before she will be fit to be

A Submerged Presbyterian.

The Scottish American tells story Of a

stranger and asked him what denomination

submerged Presbyterian" "a submerged

should be glad if you'd explain" "Well, I
was brought up Presbyterian, my wife is a
Methodist, my eldest daughter is a Baptist,
my son is the organist at a Unitarian
church, my second daughter sings in a
Church of England choir, and my youngest

800 Reward 500.

The readers Of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
strength by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have SO much faith in its cura-
tive powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

Lewis and Clark.

A mighty team were these two. Truly
their works live after them.
1t is nearly 100 years since they started
on that great exploration fathered by Thos.
jefferson, up the Missouri and down the
Columbia rivers, crossing the mountains
between, and the results Of it and the deep
interest in it still lives.
Their first winter-1804-5-wa spent
among the Mandan Indians; the winter of
1866 they passed near the mouth of the
Columbia river among the Clatsop Indians
They crossed the Rocky mountains at five
different places and travelled sometimes in
canoes, sometimes on horseback sometimes
afoot, and covered about 10, 600 miles in ALL
Their adventures proved truth to be as
strange as fiction; their discoveries were of
the greatest Importance.
Wonderland 1900 just issued by the
Northern Pacific Railway Co. is largely de-
voted to Lewis and Clark's exploration, and
is the only popular and reliable narrative
of that expedition recently published
The writer visited the important places
on the explorers route and photographs
were taken for specially illustrating the
article.

Very Embarrassing.

When the new minister, handsome and
unmarried man, made his first pastoral call
at the Fosdicks' he took little Anna up in
his arms and tried to kiss her. But the child
refused to be kissed. She struggled loose
and ran off into the next room, where her
mother was putting few finishing touches
to her adornment before going into the par.

let him? would if I were you"
Thereupon little Anna ran back into the
parlor and the minister asked:
"Well, little lady, won't you kiss me
now?"
"No, I won't" replied Anna, promptly,
"but mamma says she will. "-Harper's Ba-

A Resourceful Phrase.

A kind-hearted clergyman was lately COM
used to puroin his fruit and vegetables. For
the sake of his wife and family he gave him
a character and this is how he worded it:
II hereby certify that A. B. has been my
gardener for over two years, and that dur
ing that time he got more out of my garden
than any man l ever employed. "-Collier's

indigestion, dyspepsia, biliousness, liver and
kidney troubles and fills the system with the

Hon. w. V. Sullivan, United States Sen
ator from Mississippi, in letter recently
written to DR.. Hartman from Oxford, Miss,
says the following:
''For some time I have been a sufferer
from catarrh in its most incipient stage, so
much so that I became alarmed as to my
general health. But, hearing of Pe-ru-na as
a good remedy, gave it fair trial and soon
began to improve. Its effects were dis
tinctly beneficial, removing the annoying
symptoms, and was particularly good as a
tonic.
Il take pleasure in recommending your
great national catarrh cure, Pe-ru-na, as the
best I have ever tried,

BRIDGING BEHRING SEA.
Results of the DepOsit Of Immense
Quantities of Debris by the
Mighty Yukon River.

Prof. w. j. McGee, of Washing eton,
declares that two slow but interesting
changes are taking place in Behring
sea. The immense quantity of debris
that is borne down the Yukon from its
sources and sides is being deposited in
the sea beyond the mouth of that
mighty stream, and its weight causes
the bed OF the sea TO subside. A cor
responding rise in the earth's crustis
produced along the chain Of the Aleu-
tian islands. Now. not only are the
islands themselves increasing in size
in consequence of being lifted up out
Of the water, but new islands are being
formed in the gaps between the others.
In some instances the new islands are
the result Of the rise, and in others
they are the result of volcanic action
Most Of the Aleutians are of volcanic
origin, and they mark the position of
a fold in the earth's crust that is pre-
disposed to eruption. In time, Prof.
McGee says. there is likely to be nat
ural bridge from America to Asia along
this route, but he admits that nobody
now living is going to see it.
