Had a Long Criminal Record.
 Richard J. OLaughlin who had been in the New Haven county jail here for a year serving a sentence of Fourteen months for obtaining money under false pretenses, died at that institution Sat- urday morning of consumption, which developed after long illness with ty- phoid fever and other complications. He belonged in Springfield When ar- rested he gave his occupation as a Journalist. He was arrested August 4, 1900, with Harry St. Clair of Boston. Together they circulated paper among prominent members of the local Republican club for subscriptions for a Mckinley drum corps No such or ganization was contemplated by the club, and when arrested the men were convicted and sentenced to fourteen months apiece.
 OLaughlin gave his name then as Frank H. O'Laughlin and also said he went under the name of Frank Carroll. He claimed at tha: time to come from Meriden. St. Clair is still in jail.
 O'Laughlin was known about his home in Springfield as Dick Deadeye, but was arrested in this city under the name of Richard Carroll. The Spring field Union says:
 "The death of O'Laughlin removes one of the slickest confidence men who ever worked in this section. More per- sons than would care to admit it have been made the victims of one or more of his innumerable schemes of getting ,,,npay and TiriS fTeaf1aV2'S SunSCrip- tion papers have become a standing joke in the vicinity. He had long criminal record.

 "You could not get me to return to coffee after my experience, If you were to give me a gold mine.
 Two different physicians who treated me helped me some, but as soon as left off the medicines l went down again. Neither of these doctors told me that coffee was the cause of the trouble.
 I was compelled to give up my occu- patton, and had been for long time constantly taking medicine of some sort. The trouble was indigestion and constipation, causing loss or sleep and running me down seriously in weight.
 I was discouraged with the drugging and remained ill until l noticed one Of your advertisements about how coffee affected some people; then thought would stop drinking 1t and see if that might not be the cause of my trouble I took to drinking Postum Cereal Food Coffee and grew to like it very much indeed. As soon as 1 stopped drinking common coffee I began to get well and have increased in weight from 140 to 15S. Since beginning Postum I have never taken pill or any kind of medi- cine. and I never felt better in my life" Il. F. McMinn, 1702 High street, Des Moines, Ia-

FOR SEES TEETH CUT.

A peculiar case of horse dentistry was successfully handled Thursday afternoon by Veterinary Surgeon Switzer. Herman Escholz discovered, some time ago. that one of his horses had much trouble in masticating It's feed, and an examination of the ani- ,nars mouth revealed the fact that its teeth had grown to an inordinate length, some of the molars being as much as three inches too long. The teeth of the upper jaw passed those of the lower, instead of closing against them. The case was most unusual one. and the horse was in danger of starving. It was decided to reduce the size of the teeth, and this was done in the following manner: The animal S mouth was kept open by a speculum, while the teeth were cut. The horse stood the ordeal with patience. Some of the pieces cut off were not less than two and a half inches long, and when the task was completed the veterinary had about a cupful of them. It is ex- pected that the horse will now be able to masticate it's food thoroughly.- Hartford Times.

COMING TO THE GRAND AUGUST

26, 27, B.
 Theater patrons have been so used to see stage productions from the fertile brain of Charles F. Blaney, all of which have been of a farce comedy line, that the Chinese American play, "King of the Opium Ring" stage picture which portrays the more serious side of life, and Of which he is the co-author, and which will be produced at the Grand opera house three nights, commencing August 26. is somewhat of a surprise. In speaking of the trouble he had in securing Chinese actors, MT. Blaney said: 'I was with one of my farce comedy companies touring the Pacific coast, and visiting every Chi nese theater to get my people. It was a remarkable experience, These star actors are brought from China and are paid enormous salaries. The same play was running simultaneously in several tneaters, and when ! first saw 1t, 1t had been going for six weeks. It was the history of Chinese emperor, who had been dethroned and pursued into the country by the army. After spend- ing several hours in a theater I re- marked that the music made my head ache, and the proprietor looked at me with pity in his eyes: This music is a century in advance of yours he said. Tn a hundred years that will be your music

MAIN PARAMOUNT DUTY.
serman by Rev. s. D. Payne at Grace
 Nj. E. Church

serman by Rev. S. D. Payne at Grace M E, Church.
 Rev. s. D. Payne of West Palm Beach. Fla, occupied the pulpit Of the Grace M. E. church yesterday morning and evening. His morning sermon was on "The Supreme Love of God' and the text was Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all they soul and with all they mind. '" This is the first and great command ment, and the second is like unto it., "Thou shalt love they neighbor as thy self" The speaker said in part: When Christ was born in Palestine there were then three religious bodies or sects, Pharisees Sadducees and Es- senes. The Pharisees were the most numerous. There were good men among them. They were strictly or thodox and paid great attention to the externals of religion. The Sadducees did not believe in the supernatural, nor in angels, the immortality of the soul or the resurrection of the body. The Fssenes were ascetics, and sought a higher religious life by exclusion.
 The Pharisees were specially de- nounced by Christ and they tried to en1broil Him with the Roman govern nent and the Jewish people. They put many questions to Him, among them this: Which Is the greatest command mant. Christ replied: Love God su- preme; love man.
 The speaker then said: In order to love God we must know God. We can love an unseen object, but we cannot love an unknown object.
 There are two sources of knowledge concerning God. First, nature; sec- ond. revelation or the Bible. Nature teaches mans existence and eternity, but does not teach Gods fatherhood, nor immortality, nor that God hears prayer. Man, by unassisted human reason, cannot find out God. Greece tried it. Rome tried it; China, India all tried and failed. We need revela- ton. The Bible is that revelation. God has made the human heart the center of many loves, one of which is love of kindness The speaker beautifully il- lustrated this thought by scenes from the Bible, one of which was David S anxiety for his son Absalom-though he was traitor.
 Love of country was another of the loves of the human heart, the main- spring of patriotism. Peace societies may sheer at the soldiers as they did the otber day in this state at the G. A. R.. calling them paupers, but we notice that the peace people get the nations into trouble and then call upon the sol- diers to fight it out as in our civil war and as in China. Christ said: He that hath no sword, let him sell his coat and get one. While I am a peace man, there are times in a nations life when a sword is more useful than a coat
 We can love kindred, love humanity, love country, but we must love God more than all. God is our creator, our provider, our redeemer. Love to God is productive of happiness, productive of salvation.
 May we all bring our talents, wealth and influence and lay them on the al- tar of sacrifice to-day.
