The ordination of Rev. J. N. Lee at
the First Baptist Church last night
was an imposing ceremony. Seated on
the pulpit platform were all of the or
dained Baptist ministers of the city.
together with two visiting ministers,
who constituted the presbytery.
The services began at o'clock. Rev.
Robert VanDeventer. pastor of the
Duffy Street Baptist Church, delivered
the sermon which showed deep thought
and preparation. Rev. Mr.. VanDeven-
ter took as the subject of his discourse
the teaching of the apostle Paul. This
teaching he said is an emulatory one.
He spoke first of Paul, as a preacher,
and then of the apostles teaching, and
of his qualifications.
The Ordination Sermon.
"In setting apart a brother to the
ministry he said, I'VE naturally
think of preachers. He then spoke
of those prominent among the noblest
examples of manhood in all ages, of
the church fathers of the second CEN
fury, and of those of, our day and of
the Baptist denomination. When we
have done honor torall, and bestowed
the highest need of praise upon each.
there is one preacher who stands above
all, like some lofty peak in the noun
tain range. We uncover our heads and
exclaim Paul" -
In speaking of Pauis calling he said
that as an apostle, and not as min
lister, he healed the sick and raised the
dead. His office was to feed the flock
and knowing that no man can teach
what he does not know, he studied the
flock. In referring to the qualifica-
tons of the great apostle, the speaker
said that he could best illustrate his

Mrs. E. B. Bradshaw, of
Guthrie, Okla, cured of severe
case by Lydia E. Pinkham's
VeQetabIe Compound.

A great many women suffer with a
form of indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not seem to yield to ordinary
medical treatment. While the symp-
toms seem to be similar to those of
ordinary indigestion, yet the medi-
cines universally prescribed do not
seem to restore the patients normal
condition.
Mrs. Pinl1ham claims that there
is a kind of dyspepsia that is caused
by arrangement of the female organ
ism, and which, while it causes dis
turbance similar to ordinary indiges-
ton, cannot be relieved without a
medicine which not only acts as a
stomach tonic, but has peculiar uterine
tonic effects as well.
Thousands of testimonial let
tiers prove beyond question that
nothing will relieve this distress
ing condition so surely as Lydia

pound. 1t always works in har-
mOny with the female system.

AT THE THEATER

Janice Meredith" was the bill at yes
terday's matinee and last night. The
presenta ton was that of the dramatic
version of the novel as arranged by
Edward E. Rose, in cola boration with
the author. The play was produced in
keeping with the very excellent ad-
vance notices that has preceded its
coming
The scenes and incidents in Janice
Meredith" are laid amidst the stirring
times Of 1856. when the colonists in
America were renouncing their allegi-
ance to the British crown, and prepar-
ing to take arms against the mother
country, in an effort 20 overthrow the
yoke Of Imperialism, and to breathe
the beloved air of freedom. The action
of the play takes one through many
historically related events of the Rev.
dictionary war including the surren-
der Of Lord CORVALLIS at Yorktown in
the fall of 1776.
Paul Leicester Ford. the author. has
deftly woven throughout these events
a beautiful story of love, valor and in
trigue, having as its principals Janice
Meredith, played by Rose Stahl. and
Charles Fownes. afterwards known as
Col. John Breton of the Continental
Army. which character is portrayed by
William Bonelli, and the acting of
these co-stars in the many situations

frequently applauded.
THE Tyranny of Tears" written by
Haddon Chambers and first produced
at Sir Charles Wyndham's Criterion
Theater, London. where it had a run
OF two years, will be presented at to-
days matinee and tonight by the
young society actor Paul Gilmore. The
author describes the play as "a comedy
of temperament" The title is de-
rived from the tyrannicaI appeal of a
literary mans wife, to tears. The sit
uations and dialogue are bright and
witty, and as a literary effort the play
is gem. TemperamentaI differences
are responsible for a cross fire of repair
tee which is brilliantly written and re-
quires clever actors to speak and act.
There is said to be not a dull moment
in the play.
"At Cozy Corners" the play in which
little Miss Adelaide Thurston makes her
appearance tomorrow, matinee and
night, tells the story of the love of Avis
Merrill. known on the stage as "Clau-
dia," the wonderful violinist, for Clyde
Hollister, the young minister of the
Congregational Church of Cozy Cor
ners. Mass. In this and other details
it strongly resembles Miss Thurston's
other success, 1.-THE Little Minister"
Pauline Phelps and Marion Short wrote

personality of Miss Thurston. Some
elegant costumes are worn in the play,

deliberately mounted scenes. The sale

SWELL DOG SHOW.
AristOcratic CANNES on View nc
Madison Square Garden.

New York. Oct. 22.-The sporting
dog element was very strongly repre-
sented to-day in the Ladies Kennel
Association show at Madison Square
Garden The strength or these classes
was something of a surprise, upsetting,
as it did the generally accepted notion
that women only cared for pet dogs.
AS matter of fact the women took
more than their share of the prizes in
the sporting classes.
The general judgment in the class Of
dogs shown is very high. Particular
ly is this true of the English settlers
and spaniels. The Irish settlers were
neither numerous nor of high quality.
This breed appears to have lost favor
with dog fanciers.

but it never stops there. The tendency is
always from bad to worse. The simple
cold becomes protracted, stubborn one,
while the discharge from the nose grows
more profuse and offensive. The infam-
nation extends to the throat and bron-
chial tubes, causing hoarseness, tickling
sensation and an aggravating cough.
The foul matter that is continually drop

into the stomach, resulting in a distress

m.sao and Persistent Experiment.
The vast extent of our sea and lake
coasts and the intimate communication
between the weather bureau stations
of this department. which are dis
tributed along these coast lines, and
the vessels of commerce have induced
the Secretary of Agriculture to author
ixs persistent and systematic expert
mentation in etheric space telegraphy.
Substantial improvements have been
made during the past year In the de-
partment's system.
The line of research has been d.
vided into three classes: First. the
perfection of more powerful trans
mitter. In which the energy of radia-
ton shall be vastly Increased; second.
the dsvising of a more delicate re-
ceiver--ons that would be positive In
stead of depending upon an imperfect
and variable contact, as do all sys-
TENS now in use; and. third. the per-
fection of a system of selective teleg-
raphy whereby messages may be dif-
ferentiated and only the receiver that

and a transmitter devised capable of
radiating all the energy generated.
The second Is believed to be nearing
successful solution. The third is
thought to be well demonstrated
theoretically. but 1t has not been fully
tested in practice.
While there is much experimental
work yet to be done before the present

munication, or before any two systems
can work within the same field with
