Preached at the Dueber Ave nue.
Church--lfs In the Lives
Of Christians.

Rev. Fish. OF West Virginia who has
been visiting in this city. occupied the
pulpit of the Dueber avenue M. u.
church Sunday morning. in the alb
sence of the pastor at conference. The
text was the 21st verse of the 11th
chapter of st. John, which recites the
raising of Lazarus from the dead. Rev.
Fish spoke of the faith and regret that
was in the heart and mind of Martha
as she said that IL Jesus had been thece
her brother would not have died. He
said there were epochs in all our lives
when we think that things might have
been different. We think God might
have made them different. Our lives
are full of regrets. 1t is If, IL, II. and
we go on In regrets till we are gray.
Gods children do not believe IN
chance. Chance is Gods providence,
hidden. perhaps. but none the less real.
We cannot always understand his prov
idence, why one is taken and another
- left. We have all made mistakes.
We have wrong conceptions of God, and
fall into sin. Yet God Is ever waiting
to be gracious. We should begin with
the love of God in our hearts, and then
we can live above petty things. Man
EIay be so dominated by the love of
God that outer things hardly touch
him.
The speaker thought that christians
should be thus wrapped up in their re-
ligious experiences. They should make
hobby of their religion. He said
every man would be the better of
a hobby, as by concentrating their
energies in one direction they accom-
piish more.
The sermon was an interesting one,
its aim being to strengthen christian
faith and make all more subserviant to
the will of God.

Glorifed with flowers. principally roses
and orchids, mingled with green. The
effect against the background of somber
black was more than beautiful.

church on the shoulders of the eight
stalwart men of the army and navy,

IT WILL Be NATIONAL
In Character, Though the Man
agement IL Likely to Be
loeal--Forming q
Corporation.

The following official statement with
reference to the proposed monument in
Canton for President Mckinley has
been issued:
Al a meeting of the executive CON-
mittee appointed under the authority
conferred by the cabinet for the pur-
pose of conducting the final obsequies
OF the late president at Canton, steps
We're taken for the organization OF an
association having in view the erection
of national monument at the cemetery
in said city to the memory of the pres
ident.
The place in view is beautifully locat-
ed in the cemetery. where the deceased
members of the presidents family are
already buried. The location was vis-
tied by members of the cabinet, the
speaker of the house, members of con-
gress, and other distinguished men in
attendance at the presidents S funeral on
Thursday.
There was but one sentiment ex-
pressed as to the beauty and eligibility
Of the location. 1t is upon a lofty
eminence, commanding a view of the
city and country for miles around, and
is in new portion OF the cemetery not
heretofore used for burial purposes.
Many visitors have expressed their
appreciation of this selection, and all
agree that more fitting place for the
final repose of the presidents remains
could not be selected.
After the corporation has effected its
organization, steps will be taken to
procure subscriptions with a view to
the speedy erection of the monument.
While the committee have taken up
on themselves the formal steps for the
Incorporation of an association under
the laws of Ohio, the association when
formed will be in no sense local in its
character. but will be made thoroughly
national in its management and control.

From Alliance.

peculiar one. Mary Webb secured a
divorce from her husband in 1892 while
he was incarcerated in the peniten.
tiary, After his release, she died.
There are no children, and the hus.
band discovered that there had been
no record of the divorce on the Locks

valuable property, and when the hns-
band discovered that there was no
record of the divorce, he claimed to
inherit. The sisters and brothers of
the deceased wife fought the case.

time and the plaintiffs asked hat the
court make nunc pro tune order, to
have the record made now as it should
have been at the time the divorce was
granted. Such an order has been re-
fused several times, but Monday morn.

This will take the property out of the

Death of James BayIass
Was Acciden
C0R0NER'S VERDICT
Says Death Was Caused BY Es-
Gaping Gas--The Remains
Arrive--Funerai Held
Sunday.

Massillon. Sept. 23.--The remains of
James Baylass arrived in this city
from Washington Saturday night at
8 o'clock. The body was taken to
the home of L. G. Wilson, a brother.
in-iaw. Funeral services were hela at
the Willison home Sunday at D. ln.,
conducted by Rev. Roberts, OF the Epis.
copal church. Interment was made in
the Massilon cemetery.
The relatives of the dead man are
now fully convinced that Mr.. Baylass's
death was not case OF suicide. The
coroners report sent from Washington
to relatives here, states that
DEATH WAS ACCIDENTAL.
Mr.. Baylass had gone into his room
about 10 o'clock and retired for the
night. Early the next morning per.
sons living in the same house were
awakened by the smell of escaping gas.
Investigation was made and the gas
was found to be coming from Mr.. Bay.
lass's room. The room was entered
and Baylass was found dead. A state.
ment from the coroner that dispels the
suicide theory is the fact that the
transom leading to Mr.. Bay lass's room
was left wide open. On this circum.
stance the coroner based his verdict
largely.
