of the Assembly.

Philadelphia, May 28.-By a unani-
assembly adopted the report Of the
special committee on the revision of
the confession of faith. The debate
on this important question had eX-
tended into the fourth day and to
Rev. Dr. James d. Moffat is due the
credit Of having brought the commits
sioners to such harmonious conclu-
sion. When recommendation E was
adopted by d comparatively small ma
jority Dr. Moffat announced that in
view of the divergency of opinion he
would offer an amendment which he
hoped would meet with the approval
of the entire assembly. When he
presented this amendment it was in
stantly accepted by the commission
ers and the adoption of the report as
whole followed with but little delay.
A viva Voce vote was taken and
when $40 ayes responded to the ques-
tion the commissioners arose and sang
"Praise God From Whom All Bless
ings Flow" which was followed by a
prayer Of thanksgiving by Moderator
Minton.
The momentous question of creed
revision having been disposed Of the
assembly proceeded to the considera-
ton of unfinished business. The re-
port of the special committee on judi
cial commissions was first in order
and was adopted after brief discus
sion. This report recommended the
establishment Of
Permanent Judicia! Committee,
to which shall be referred all judicial
cases which the general assembly
does not elect to try before the whole
body. There will be no appeal from
the decisions Of this committee.
During the afternoon session re-
ports of various special committees
were considered and adopted, among
them a supplemental report of the
committee on theological seminares,
which recommended the consolidation
of the Louisville and Danville semi.
naries.
New York was selected as the meet
ing place for the next general assem-
bly,.
In commenting on the action of the
assembly on the question of revision
Moderator Mintcn said "The discus.
sion has developed and displayed far
more clearly the agreement of the
whole assembly upon the question OF
revision than any division or discord
The decision reached is victory fol
no one, but for all"
Rev. Or. Charles A. Dickey, chair
man Of the committee on revision
said: "The church may expect peace
and progress during the coming year

Settlers at Sparta, Mimi, Dsappoint-
ed Over judge Sanborn's Decision.

Sparta, Mimi, May 2S.-The settlers
were much disappointed over Judge
Sanborns decision in the famous ISL
and Lake land case, as they had an
ticipated a decision favorable to them.
1t is now thought they will give up the
fight. They have spent years on the
land putting all their money into i'm.
provements and all they could earn.
Large deposits Of iron ore will be
found on these lands as a valuable
mine adjoins them. Sparta citizens
now expect boom, as there will be
saw mill built to cut the lumber from
the lands, and crews of the test pit
terS will be put to work at once.

ton, a terrific expI-alun of coal dust
resulted in the tt&th of q men, all
white, and most Of them married and
with families.
The explosion vas caused by what
is known ar.--G miners as "blown
blast" 1t il t,i1 custom Of the miners
to place bla-ts and fire them off at
quitting time each afternoon, leaving
the coal this thrown down to be
loaded and hauled from the mine the
next noTni~:g. The Richl-nd mine is
destitute CT water, and great volumes
of fine pa! !ticles of coal dust, invisible
to the na!lad eye, accumulate at the
roof of the mine. This dust is subject
to explosion il exposed to flames. A
dynam mite cartridge was placed in po-
sition il one of the rooms for a blast
and th2 miners started for the mouth
of the mine. The blast did not ex-
plodc as intended, but instead long
fame shot out of the blast hole and
ignited the accumulation CT dust. In
stantly terrific explosion occurred
and seothing mass of flames shot to
200 feet into the open air, scorching
the leaves from the nearby trees.
There were "a men in the mine at the
time. Four of these escaped with
slight injury. Twenty-one were killed
and nine
Were Terribly Burned,
most of them fatally. The force of
the explosion caused great masses Of
coal and slate to cave in from the
roof of the mine and many Of the
fated miners were completely buried.
Word quickly reached Dayton and
rescue forces were at once organized
and proceeded to the mine. One by
one the blackened and horribly dis
figured bodies were taken from the
debris and carried to the mouth of
the mine, where they were put on a
locomotive and taken to Dayton.
Scores Of relatives and friends gath
cred at the mouth of the mine and the
shrleks OF anguish as the bodies were
removed were feartrending.
The two undertaking establishments
at Dayton were turned into .morgues,
where the mangled bodies were
dressed and prepared for delivery to
their families. All the men employed
in this mine were residents of DAYTON.

NOTHING EQUALS 1T.


A physician now retired from practice
but who still keeps abreast OF the times,
in spaaking OF the advance made In med
icins in the last ten years says: lone OF
the most obstinate and battling diseasns
Is ths very common trouble, oatarrh.
Nesai catarrh II only one OF Its many
forms; catarrn OF the throat, catarrh OF
tne stomach, bowels, nver and bladder
are very common bat the sufferer usually
thinks it IL something else than oatarrh
and IL treated FOR the wrong disease.
The rest and most successful treatment
tor any form Of oatarrh Is now admitted
to be by internal remedies through the
stomach and the ssfest and probably the
most efficient is in the tablet form, sold
By drUgzists ~ Stuart Catarrn Tablets.
| have seen many remarkable cures OF
oatarrh resulting from regular daily use
OF these tablets, which seem 20 act on the
blood and liver, driving the catarrhal
poison out OF the system through tue nat
ural channels.
i once had occasion to anslyze these
tablets and found them to contain no
oocaipe nor oDiates, but simply com
binAtiou of harmless antiseptios Ike
EunaIyutal Guaiacol, blood root, etc.
AT any rate have known OF severe cat
arrhai head aches which were cured by
STUART CHtarrh Tablets, and catarrhal
deafness, hay fever, asthma AM oatarrh
OF the throat aud stomach speedily show
great benefit after few days use OF the
remedy ana when it IL remembered now
much more convenient a tablet is than In
halers, doucnes, ealves and powders ~ IL
not surprising that this Dsw preparation
should so rapidly supplant all other
remedies for the stomach.

Mr.. KnowIton OF Pennington urged
that the bill should be amended to substi-
tute for the Requirements that the aoade-
mics shall give normal instruction .
nrovision for a commercial course. MIR.
Knowlton thought that there were now
sufficient opportunities for the training
OF teachers In the normal schools.
MIR. Gilmore OF Turner, plnced before
the Houss some interesting figures in his
remarks In support of~the bill. He
showed that OF the 81 academies now
receiving state aid In rural communi-
ties and "a are 10 towns OF less than two
thousand inhabitants. The character
OF the work done by the academies MIR.

ready high standard OF instruction In the
colleges. Mr.. Gilmore in closing his re
marks, paid an eloquent tribute to the
work dons for the state by the academies
MIR, Chase of Portland said that he
had not intendsd@ep speak upon the bill
and would ask the Indulgence OF the
House while he offered an amendment.
| AS he read the bill, there was nothing
In 1t to require statements OF expendi'
lures under tbs act by officers OF the
academies receiving aid. His amend
ments provided for such accounts In
the reports to the educational depart
ment.
Mr. Garuner's amendment was defeat
ed. That proposed by Mr.. Chass wAi
adopted.
Then Mr.. Gardner framed another
amendment designed to place Pattsr
academy in the $3.50 class and 1t wal
promptly voted down. Then on motor
OF MIR. Bennett of Hollis the bill wal
again amended to make 1t plain that i

ADOPT tEN|ENT attitude.
Easily Possible To Bring About
Partition Of China.
QUESTION OF INDEMNITY.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Being obliged
by the attitude of the other powers
interested to continue at Pekin the
negotiations looking to settlement of
the Chinese difficulties, in spite of a
most diseouraging outlook for favor
| able conclusion there, the Department
Of State has now sent by cable to Mr..
Conger very precise and detailed in
ptructions for his guidance in treating
of the question of indemnity.
The ministers have reached finally
this important topic, which was one of
two or three that the State Department
earnestly desired to have dealt with by
other agencies and at another capital
than Pebin. Since it is found neces-
sary to furnish Mr.. Conger with such
exact instructions as will prevent any
possible misunderstanding as to the
purposes of the United States govern
ment upon this subject.
Realizing that it is easily possible to
destroy the Chinese government and
bring about the partition of the en-
pire, which all powers express them
selves as DESTROYS of preventing, by an
ill-judged effort to force terms as to
indemnity, the State Department it is
believed has adopted lenient attitude
and will lose no opportunity to infiu-
ence other powers accordingly.
