From Bush River Neck.

PERUVIAN, September 1.-THE coun-
try mourns the loss of the Chief Magis-
trate of the United States and Bush River
too. Political differences have been laid
aside and the once antagonistic feeling
has been turned into the deepest and most
profound sympathy that our President
was brought down SO suddenly to an I'M
timely grave at the hands of an assassin,
and when the sad news reached US an
nouncing his death there was hardly a
dry eye in the Neck. For Mrs. Mckinley,
our hearts go out i'll sympathy for her in
her sad bereavement, and we trust that
she may bear up well under her atfiiction
and be guided by the hand of that Supreme
Being who doeth all things well. For the
scoundrel who did such an net, burning
at the stake would be too good for him.
With the vanishing summer days the
summer girl also disappears. Picnics and

JUDGE STUMP'S WILL.

The will of Judge Frederick Stump
which was probated this week contains
several remarkable provisions. We
publish the same hoping it may have
some weight with many foolish persons
who impoverish themselves with unneces-
sary mourning display.
The will states: Disguised with the
foolish displays almost universally made
at funerals, to the great gain of under
takers and to the deprivation of many
families of even the necessaries of life for
long time thereafter, hereby direct
that be buried in white pine because
that wood decays more rapidly under
ground than any other know ot) coffin,
without any stain, paint, cover or other
Ned. Gehr, has not gone to heaven before
die, | want him to make it. l direct
that no embalming fluid or other stuff
be injected into my body, and that no
funeral sermon shall be preached over it.
| charge my executors to see that my
wishes in these respects are faithfully
carried out.
"As am not worth now more than
one-quarter as much as was IS years
ago, there is prospects that will not be
worth anything when die unless that
and even then the amount will be so
small that to divide it into nine parts las
the law would do) would do no one any
good; for that reason only, l have de-
ternined to divide it among the two that
in my Judgment, will need it most, viz:
my sister Allie NJ, and my brother John"
He bequeaths all his household furni-
ture etc, to his sister Allie NJ, except a
set of bureaus that came from Hartford,
and those he leaves to his sister Annie.
The rest and residue of his estate is be-
queathed to his sister Allie NJ, and his
brother John, except a right-ofway

Chamberlain and Mrs. Murphy, which
he bequeaths to his sister Kate His No

equality to all voters alike-to the litter
white man and to the illiterate colored
man on a perfect equality-there is no
ground whatever for complaint of un-
fair and unlawful discrimination.
We need not lose the votes OF any who
wish our party to succeed, for in every
precinct legitimate and proper instruc-
ton can be had and should be given
whereby adequate knowledge of the
proper mode of marking the ballot may
bc readily acquired.
For the present content myself with
reminding you that the struggle in which
we are engaged is not complicated or
obscured by the sharply debated question
which divided our people in the Presiden-
tial contests of 1896 and 1900.
We are now dealing with the relative
advantages of Protection or Reciprocity
or a Tariff framed to produce such
Revenue only as is demanded for an
honest and economical administration of
the Federal Government.
In common with our fellow-citizens all
over the Union and with the people ofthe
civilized world, our hearts are stirred to
their deepest depths by the awful crime
which has deprived our country of its
chief magistrate, President Mckinley,
whose eminent and patriotic services can
never be forgotten by a grateful people
and whose blameless life shall stand to
the remotest ages as an example and in
SEPARATION to all who reverence purity, in
tegrity and honor, but we have not now
under review the wisdom and expediency
of the foreign and domestic policy of his
administration.
We are not now concerned with the dis
cussion and settlement of the great ques-
tions growing out the war with Spain,
or the proper policy to be pursued in fix
ing our duties and obligations to the
people ofCuba, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines, but the controlling issue in this
State campaign is, whether the honest,
intelligent, economical, conservative and
successful administration of our State
affairs by the representatives ofour white
people shall be displaced, or whether it
shall be continued.
Upon this plain issue which our politi-
cal situation forces upon us and which
we ought not to evade if we could and
cannot evade if we would, l appeal to
you to stand by our organization and
vote for our candidates.
Keep the State in safe Democratic hands
and rely upon Democratic administra
ton for the Inauguration and conduct OF
all needed measures of enlightened pro.
gress and reform.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR IN HARTFORD.

The Christian Endeavor movement has

people of our county. This organization
does much to improve the moral and re-

it is actively at work, and increases the
fidelity of its members to the general
work of the local church. In Hartford

composed of twenty-one societies, witha

STILL MORE CONTEMPLATING.

The Secret service has unearthed an
other band of counterfeiters and secured a
large quantity of bogus bills, which are so
cleverly executed that the average person
would never suspect them of being spuri-
Gus. Things of great value are always
selected by counterfeiters for imitation,
notably the celebrated Hostetter' Stom.
ach Bitters, which has many imitators
but NO equals for indigestion, dyspepsia,
constipation. nervousness and general
debility. The Bitters sets things right in
the stomach, and when the stomach is in
good order, it makes good blood and
plenty of it. In this manner the Bitters
get at the seat of strength and vitality,
and restore vigor to the weak and debili-
tated. Beware of counterfeits when buy.
