had been tapping the can at the shop.
There was too much of the drug used,
however, and the matter has assumed a
serious aspect, as Mr.. Larson is confined

wIckHAM's SUCCESSOR.
Rev. j. c. Lemon Called to Christian
Church at Sioux Civ.

Church at Sioux City.
Sioux City, Sept. 3.-The members of
the Central Christian church held a
meeting yesterday afternoon, at which
IT. was decided to invite Rev. ]. C. Lem
On, recently Of Des Moines. to occupy
the church pulpit for month, and it is
generally understood that the call will
be extended at the end of that time.
Rev. Mr.. Lemon has accepted the call
and will at once enter upon his duties
as successor of Rev. c. NJ. Wickham.
Rev. Mr.. Lemon preached before the
Central Christian congregation last
Sunday week and he occupied the pulpit
again Sunday. The members of the
church, who have been looking for
pastor since Rev. Wickham's departure,
were favorably impressed. and the
meeting which was held yesterday
afternoon was the result. Rev Mr.
Lemon is young man and is said to
be energetic and ambitious. At the
present time the congregation is with
out church building, the old First
Christian church building having been
left in the possession of the Mr.. Wick
hams opponents. The members Of the
Central congregation hope, however. to
grow in numbers and in strength under
the leadership of good pastor.
The First Christian church Is still
without pastor.
Rev. Mr.. Wickham, who was the
cause OF the breach in the church, is

But among less material products Will
be a spirit Of rampant commercialism,
which, having pervaded the town FOR
a year and day, will go on pervading
it after the immediate stimulating
cause is removed. People who never
before dreamed of such a thing have
plunged into the wage-earning arena
this summer; housewives have tasted
the sweets of room renting; lads and
lasses have found that a dollar earned

merchants and manufacturers have
become Injured to high profits. All this
can not be done away in second.

pie bent upon making much money,

other lasting result of the exposition

and-is the transition abrupt?-an en-
tirely new idea of Sunday. Not the
old Puritan view, and not the lawless
view OF the picnicker, obtains in Buffa-
10 as a result of the summer, but an
idea which includes church in the
morning and a frank pursuit of de-
corous amusement when church is
over.
Incomparably the finest legacy of the
experience will be an awakened civic
consciousness. Buffalo is just about
to find herself. Hitherto she has had
no adequate idea of what she could
do if she tried. The summer has been
a complete revelation. Better still,
the rich, full life of the past six months,
the abundance of music and superb
sculpture and splendid architecture
and painting; the rush and vigor of
thoroughly lively town, are going to
leave behind them a divine discomfort
with the old order of things. And that
means civic regeneration.

We followed with great interest the
proceedings of our fellows who had

meeting of the Institute of Journalists
We felt ourselves improved morally

of regret at their failure to accomplish
two or three things that we had fond

There are certain reforms that must
be made in Journalism, and 1t is a pity
that the institute did not make them.

HEART DISEASE
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid
Increase of Heart Trouble.

Heart troubles. at least among the
Americans are certainly increasing
and while this may be largely due to
the excitement and worry of American
business life, it is more often the re-
suit of weak stomachs, of poor diges-
ton.
Real organic disease is incurable. but
not one case in a hundred of heart
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by the same
great nerves, the Sympathetic and
Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is af-
fected by the form of poor digestion.
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food. There is a
feeling of oppression and heaviness in
the chest caused by pressure of the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs.
interfering with their action, hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin and watery. which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
ton and to insure the prompt assim-
ilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe. pleasant and
effective digestive preparation. like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which may
be found at most drug stores, and
which contain valuable, harmless d.
gestive elements in a pleasant conven-
lent form.
II is safe 70 say that the regular
persistent use OF Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal time will cure any
form OF stomach trouble except cam
Ger OF the stomach.

which a person is entitled after a life
of ceaseless, sleepless effort.
There are other phrases which equal
ly deserve leisure in their old age, and
we note with pain that the Institute of
Journalists made no provision to sup
port them in their decrepitude. That
worthy fellow citizen Mr.. Common nor
garden must continue to toll from
dawn until the setting sun, broken
down and rheumatic as he is.
And our one-time schoolmate and
aged playfellow "Hinc- illae-lachry-
mae? Cannot something be done to
rescue him from his life of persistent
effort?
The venerable phrases-with their
gray whiskers and their wrinkles and
their senile chuckles-is there no hope
for them at all? Is it that journalists
are without gratitude and have no
sentiment as to those industrious SER
wants from whose toll they have
amassed their great wealth?
Heartless the men of the newspaper
profession may be toward those whom
we have enumerated, though we will
not believe it, but one there is whose
tribulations cannot but arouse the
compassion even OF the most callous.
1t is of poor old Mr.. "We-fear-the-
Greeks bearing gifts" of whom we
speak, a worthy journeyman phrase
that has worked day and night, rain
or shine, with such vigor as to have
honestly earned a nook in some asy-
lum. Occasionally he plays his part in
Latin; but play it he always does,
eschewing vacations and holidays, and
laboring with ceaseless energy.
Let a place be provided for him
where he will worry and weep nc
more, and where, with his fellow
craftsmen "They- -these-things- bet
ter-in- France" and Temporal mutan-
tur" he may recount his triumphs and
popularity to such younger journal
istic phrases as come into the home
for temporary repairs, made necessary
by working overtime.
The gratuity fund of the institute
is rich enough also to make some slight
annual allowance to such splendid old
chaps as "A-movement-is is on foot"
who is always to be found at his post
of duty never faltering, never stand
ing on his head or running on all tours,
but invariably right side up, sleepless
and interchangeable.
"Quite-a-gloom-w cast-over- the
community" who has gone to every
noteworthy deathbed since newspa-
pers were invented, and "The- devour-
ing element" who has not missed a
fire that we can remember, must still
keep in the harness. and "Old Sol"
figure in the summer weather report
ing, and Jupiter Pluvlus" busy him
self at cricket matches, while old bed
ridden "Dull-sickening- thud," forgot
ten in the rush, must be taken from
his room and carried on a stretcher to
assist at all the hangings.

Mr.. J. G. CORNELL DEAD.
The End Came Last Night After an
Illness of Ten Days

Illness of Ten Days.
Mr.. James Graham Cornell died a
few minutes before 10 o'clock last night
at his home, No. 81 Whitaker street. He
had been i'll for ten days, having been
taken Friday a week ago with a fever
from which he subsequently rallied, but
which later developed into acute
Brights disease, the immediate cause
of his death.
Mr.. Cornell was born in Beaufort, 6.
c., July %, 1880, but came to Savannah
while yet very young and has lived
here the remainder of his life. His
ability in his chosen profession, that
of contractor and builder, was so well
known and recognized that he was
made superintendent in the erection of
some of the largest and most important
buildings in the city, among them the
county Court House. the Cathedral of
st. John the Baptist, the Cotton Elk
change and the Postoffice building.
During the Civil War he served with
the Eighteenth Georgia Battalion (Sa-
vannah Volunteer Guards), was at the
Battle of Sailors Creek, and was still
in the army when Gen. Lee surren-
dered. He was a member of the Con-
federate Veterans Association.
Mr.. Cornell never married. The i'm

SAW THE AIR LIFT.
Mayor and Party of Aldermen Visit
ed Water Works.

eel Water Works.
Mayor Myers, Alderman Bacon, AL
derman Dixon, Alderman Watson and
a representative of the Morning News
visited the new waterworks plant
yesterday and viewed the operation of
the air lift that has been connected
with the Springfield well, more than
doubling its flow.
Alderman Bacon, chairman, and Al
derman Watson of the Water Com
mittee wanted the Mayor and Alder
man Dixon to observe the operation
of the lift and the great increase in
the flow that it produces. The Mayor
wanted to see just what the new meth
cd accomplishes. Alderman DIXON
was formerly chairman of the Water
Committee and is greatly interested in
the department. He is chairman of
the Finance Committee, and the equip
ment for the lift. if it should be secur-
ed by the city, must have some consid-
Grafton from that committee.
Mr.. z. Z. Clarke, representative OF
the Bacon Air Lift Company of Chi
cago, which equips plants for lifting
water by air, met the visitors. Alder
man Bacon had become thoroughly IA
niliar with the process, however. and
his elucidation made it clear to the
others. He conducted them to the con-
denser. an engine of considerable pow
er, which was brought from Chicago
for the purposes of the test upon the
Springfield we'll, the city paying the
freight upon it to and from that city.
This item of the freight is the only
one the city has incurred in connection
with the test, the company furnishing
everything else.
The Morning News of Aug. told at
length of just what has been accom-
plished at the waterworks by means
Of the air lift and what might be ex-
pected of it If it were applied to all
the twelve other wells, The Mayor and
aldermen concluded from their inspec-
ton that they would be able to aban-
don the use of the old water works en-
tirely, if the air lift were put in, and
that there would never be any scarcity
of water. The necessity for digging
new wells would be removed.
While there has not been very much
figuring done as yet, it is roughly es-
timated that the waterworks can be
equipped with the air lift for something
like So 800. The visitors seemed to be-
lieve that the money would be well in
vested. No trade has been made, but
the plan for increasing the water sup
ply is approved, and it is not improba-
BILE that it will be adopted.
After the inspection of the afr lift,
the party walked about the grounds.
The pretty park into which the grounds
on the east side have been converted
demanded attention, and surprise in
the beauty of the spot was expressed.
Seats are here and there, and a pond,
well stocked with fish, adds a sense of
- vtesA
one to remark that it was strange that
the place is not filled every Sunday
afternoon with people from the city. A
paved road extends all the distance,
and an afternoon might be pleasantly
spent in the park.
