the ceremony of dedication by Father
Schaapman, S. J., chaplain of St Marys
college, and Father Harrigan of To-

Man has a soul to save and a God

churches were established. That is
the mission of the church: to lift men
up and make them better and cleaner.

The great need of man for God was
the burden of the subject of the SER

Heavenly Father in his life and who
does not have Him by his side, has left
out of life the most important thing in
it, he said

earnest address detailing the measures

FEW PEOPLE REALIZE
The Danger in That Common Disease,
Catarrh.

Because catarrhal diseases are so
common and because catarrh is not
rapidly fatal, people too often overlook
and neglect it until some incurable all
men develops a result of the neglect.
The infiamed condition of the mem
brane of the nose and throat makes a
fertile soil for the germs of Pneumonia
and CONSUMPTION. in fact catarrhal
pneumonia and CATARRHAL consumption
are the most common forms of these
dreaded diseases which annually cause
more than one quarter of the deaths in
this country.
Remedies for catarrh are almost as
numerous eatarrh sufferers but very
few have any actual merit as a cure,
the only good derived being simply a
temporary relief.
There is, however, a very effective
remedy recently discovered which is
rapidly becoming famous for its great
value in relieving and permanently cur
ing all forms of catarrhal diseases.
whether located in the head. throat,
lungs or stomach
This new catarrh cure is principally
composed of a gum derived from the
Eucalyptus tree, and this gum possesses
extraordinary healing and ant1septic
properties. 1t is taken internally in the
form of a lozenge or tablet, pleasant
to the taste and so harmless that little
children take them with safety and
benefit.
Eucalyptus oil and the bark are some
times used but are not SO convenient
nor so pala ia BILE as the gum.
Undoubtedly the best quality is found
in Stuarts Catarrh Tablets which may
be found in any drug store and any
catarrh sufferer who has tried douches,
inhalers and liquid medicines. will be
surprised at the rapid Improvement
after a few days use of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets which are composed of
the gum of the Eucalyptus tree, COM
bined with other antiseptics which de-
stroy the germs of catarrh in the blood
and expel the catarrhal poison from the
system.
DR.. Ramsdel1 in speaking of Catarrh
and its cure says: After many exper-
iments l have given up the idea of cur
ing catarrh by the use of inhalers,
have always had the best results from
and other valuable antiseptics contain
ed in these tablets make them, in my
opinion, far superior to any of the
numerous catarrh remedies SO extern
sively advertised
The fact that Stuart's Catarrh Ia b1ets
are sold in drug stores, under protec-
ton of a trademark, should not preju-
dice conscientious physicians against
them because their undoubted merit and
harmless character make them a rem
edy which every catarrh sufferer may
use with perfect safety and the pros
pect of a permanent cure.
For colds in the head, for coughs, ca
tarhal deafness and catarrh of the
stomach and liver, people who have
tried them say that Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets are household necessity.

STANLEY TO SHOPMEN.
Talks About the Value of the
Man.

Gov. w. E. Stanley filed his broken
engagement with the Santa F'e shop
men, speaking to them for 20 minutes
at noon today at the coach shop
II was just wondering" he began,
las I came down through the round
house at the immense locomotives
which they are building now. An out
slider can hardly fully comprehend what
a wonderful development there has been
in this. But we must remember that
behind it all was human genius 1t took
skill to take that iron out of the noun
tains and mold and shape it and put
that steel there.
Another thing here is man in one
shop working at a machine, and there
another in another shop, and the whole
working to an intelligent purpose are
able to send out a complete train of
cars. It is an age of not seeing what
position a man holds but what he is
and does There is no distinction be-
tween the man of high and that of low
degree. Nineteen hundred years ago
man came into this world and illustrat-
ed that by the parable of the Good
Samaritan.
'One thing I want to impress upon
you above all else is the value of
man. What great farce life would be
If the only object of it were to get rich
What a failure it would be if it were
only to get position But 1T isn't that,
il is the idea of being a man. And you
laboring men have an opportunity to be
men without any hypocrisy in your
work. Labor is honest; and the only
honest thing in life. That's the great
est thing there is.
Il congratulate you on what a power
you are. You have. every man of you,
the power of following his own judg-
ment- Let it direct you as fathers,
neighbors, husbands and citizens
Learn to be independent citizens. That
is what the state wants; honest men
who will do their duty as they see it,
Behind all the inventions of the age is
man himself. And pray that you men
may be a power to exalt and dignity
manhood"
Four hundred and seventy-f1ve shop
employees listened to the address.

Mr. Simpson can take the office just
as soon as he files his bond and it is

Burton several months ago that he was
ready to turn the office over to his sue
cessor at any time. He said the office
had paid him $4,000 in four years, and
that he had had enough for one man.
1t is probable that the change in the
office will be made about January 1.

Pherson county, has been prominent in
Kansas politics for years. He was
chairman of the Republican state COM

DENVER FIGHTS ARE OFF.
Police Refuse to Sanction Boxing in
Young Corbett's Town.

Denver, Col, Dec. 3.-Fistic followers
here who expected to see their cham
pion, Young Corbett," in battle at
this city soon were given a hard knock
when it was announced by President
Adams and Member Burpec, two of the
three members of the fire and police
board, that no prize fighting would be
permitted during their terms of office,
which do not expire until 1903.
The members of the police board were
approached with view to learning it's
sentiment regarding a fight between
Young Corbett' and Dave Sullivan,
which was talked of for some time,
when the announcement was positively
made that no fighting would take place.
The law permitting 20-round fights
has been declared unconstitutional by
the district court and is now in the
supreme court on appeal, but fight pro-
motors are not anxious to press 1t,
fearing an unfavorab1e decision.
