1S. Not condemned or condemned al

heard the good news. Condemned, not
because one has been liar, or thief, or
drunkard, or a murderer, for, while these
are great sins, there is a greater, even
that of rejecting the Son Of God. Not
condemned, not because we have done
this or that good thing or In any way
merited eternal life, but only. because we
have accepted the Son of God as our
Saviour and have put our whole tr1st in
His precious blood.

HUSBAND AND WIFE DROWN.

oune Couple While Skating Fell
Into an Air Hole and Perished.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Story, of Chester
town were drowned in Whalen's pond
at that place last Friday night. He
was 81 years ofage, and she was 10.
They had been married but few
months ago.
Young Story was fond of skating,
and sfter an early supper started with
his wife for the pond. They were
seen together there by skaters an hour
later, enjoying themselves merrily.
Story was propelling his wife, who was
not wearing skates, before him at a
rapid rate.
AS darkness settled Gown the other
skaters left the pond, until only the
Storys and two boys remained. There
was a large sirhole in the pond, and
from this direction the boys, who were
skating near the bank, heard the crack
of breaking ice, splash OF water and
the voice of Stoly crying out:
"For Gods sake, Martha, save mel''
There was an instant's silence, and
then a shrek from the woman: 81
can't get to you, Lee; I cal't get to
you'll On, wont somebody come to
help!"
The boys skated to the strawboard
mill and gave the alarm, and in a few
moments a searching party was on the
way. A boat was dragged over the
ice, and after several hours search the
body of Story was found and drawn
from the water.
Although the search was kept up all
of Friday night no trace of the body Of
Mrs. Story was discovered. Her hood
was found on the ice near the air-hole,
and there was break in the ice near
by, as though in her desperate desire
to save her husbands life she had ven
tured too near the edge and plunged to
her death.

fusion plan contempiates. in it's modest
programme, the capture of a senatorial
toga as well as the ownership of all the

developments of the future.
1t all depends upon whether the re-

the courage of it's convictions or not,
whether it intends to prove worthy OF

demand its rights or meekly submit to

HENRY ELLTNo.

The death OF Henry Filing is a grave
public misfortune. His was a most
useful, noble and ennobling life. He
was the very embodiment of honor. He
made money only to do good with 1t.
No narrow soul was his to deify the
dollar and struggle for 1t at the expense
of the decencies Of life, or the esteem OF
friends. He enjoyed public respect be-
cause he was worthy Of 1t. Where he
was best known he. was most loved. He
has long been Madison county's chief
benefactor, and will live in it's history
because the story of his good deeds will
be told to children for many future gen.
erations. The state will miss his enter
prise, the influence of his patriotism and
the inspiration of his example in private
and public affairs.

QUICK WORK PROMISED.

A Washington dispatch says that
concerted effort will be, made to subdue
the insurgents in the Philippine islands
in the next four months
All doubt as to the sentiment Of the
people in regard to the question inyolv-
ing the retention of the islands has
been removed by the recent election, and
the administration now has full power
to act. The desire of the people is to
bring the insurrection to seepdy ter
mination, and there is no doubt as to
the nature of the response. The cleo
ton has given to the government the
privilege of considering the methods
best calculated to insure success, and
the voice of the calamity howler has
been hushed. 1sG
The administration has demanded un-'
conditional surrender, at the same time
promising to grant the Filipinos that
measure of independence which they
prove themselves worthy of. They have
been standing out for concessions that
the government will never consent to,
and now. that the wishes of the Amer
