LECTURE ON "McKlNLEY"
Rev. DIR. j. Wesley Hill at Fowler
NJ. e. Church Tonight.

Rev. ]. Wesley Hill, D. D., pastor of
Grace church, Harrisburg, Pa, and chap
lain of the Pennsylvania senate, will de-
liver his lecture on ''McKinley' at the
Fowler M. E. church, Franklin and Du-
pcnt avenues s. this evening at o'clock.
Senator Hanna says Of DR.. Hill: HE is
the most eloquent, popular and effective
man sent out by the republican national
committee in the great campaign Of 1900"
1t is known by many of DR.. Hills per-
sonal friends that he went into that cam
paign at the urgent request of President
Mckinley. He spoke in the principal
cities Of the country and participated in a
memorable debate in Michigan. He,
along with President Roosevelt, addressed
a great mass meeting at the Colosseum
in Chicago, where he created such a IA
Vora BILE impression that he was encored
three times, being obliged to speak three
different times from the same platform at
the same meeting. He was an intimate
friend Of President Mckinley. He fire.
quently visited at McKinley's home, and
travelled to Washington as an invited
guest to attend his funeral. His eulogy
of the martyred president will spring
from love, and his picture will be drawn
from memory. He recently delivered the
same lecture to the board Of trade at
Harrisburg, Pa. He has been invited to
deliver 1t in Chicago Jan. Is. He came
to Minneapolis to preach at the ami
versary service of the church which was
built during his pastorate and consented
to deliver his lecture. Governor Van
SAINT will preside.
Following the lecture a reception will
be given for the governor and his wife,
Fowler Methodist church is celebrating
its eighth anniversary. Yesterday two
services were held at which Rev. Dr. P. A.
Cool, the pastor, presided. Dr. HILL the
first pastor, preached two sermons. In
the morning he preached an eloquent SER
mon on ''The Miracles of Faith" In the
evening the text was, For we know in
part and prophesy in part, but when that
which is perfect is come, then that which
is in part shall be done away" About
$1,000 was raised toward paying the float
ing debt Of the church. The church was
organized eight years ago. The building
cost nearly 100000. Of this $4,000 is still
a debt. The membership is 300

There are thousands of people in this world
who eat no meat from one years end to an
other and certain savage tribes in Africa
and Polynesia are almost exclusively meat
eaters; but. while there are thousands OF
these. there are millions who live upon q
mixed diet of meat, vegetables and grains,
and, if numbers is criterion, it would seem
that mixed diet is the best for the human
family.

meat eaters equally SO, and any number OF

To repair the waste of tissue in brain work
ers as we'll as to replace the muscle and
sinew of the laborer, can only be done through
the process Of digestion.
Every nerve, muscle, sinew, every drop OF
blood is extracted from the food we eat and
digest.
fetal habits Of life, scarcely one person in q
thousand can lay claim to perfect digestion
dyspepsia is national ahiiction and Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets national blessing.
Most cases of poor digestion are caused by
failure Of the stomach to secrete sufficient
gastric juice, or too little hydrochloric acid
and lack of peptones and all of these impor-
tant essentials to perfect digestion are found
in Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets in convenient,
palatable form.
The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is a sound stomach.
Weak stomachs fail to digest food properly
because they lack the proper quantity of di-
gestiye acids (lactic and hydrochloric) and
peptogenic products; the most sensible rem
edy in all cases of Indigestion is to take after
each meal one or two OF Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, because they supply, In a pleasant,
harmless form. all the elements that weak
stomachs lack.
One or two Of thesA tablets. taken after
meals, insure perfect Nigestion and assimi-
lation of the food.
Cathartic pills and laxative medicines have
no effect whatever in digesting food, and to
call such remedies cure for dyspepsia is far
fetched and absurd.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain pepsin
free from animal matter, diastase and other
dlgestives, and not only digest all wholesome
food, but tend to increase the flow Of gastric
juices and, by giving the weak stomach a
much needed rest, bring about healthy con.
dition OF the digestive organs and normal
appetite.

When we made up our minds to leave

PATRIOTS ARE MANY
Army Recruiting Office Thronged
With Men Eager to Enlist.
MANY OF THEM DISQUALIFIED
Col. Leonhauser's Explanation q
the Rush of Men In Pros
perOus Times.

! Patriots who clay aside a suit of gray
or any other color "to wear the union
| blue" are not wanting these days in Min
neapolis. 1t isn't wars alarms alone
that prompt men to join the army, as Col.
H. A. Leonhauser, the recruiting officer
in this city, can testify.
Although the chance of seeing active
service now, even in the Philippines, is a
slim one, the government is experiencing
no difficulty in securing all the men want
ed in this section. Since Colonel Leon
hauser took charge of the Minneapolis
station six weeks ago he has mustered
into the service seventy of as fine spect-
! where in the army. Many times that
number have been turned away and not
less than $50 have been rejected because
of physical disa bility. 1.-The lame, the
halt and the blind" all want an oppor-
| tupity to shoulder musket in the cause
of Uncle Sam.
In unusually prosperous times, when a
| shortage of labor is reported in all ave-
nues of employment, it Is considered
rather remarkable that SO many men
| should be looking for an opportunity to
! break into the army.
! The recruiting officer explains that most
| Of the men who want to "belong to the
| regulars" are stragglers from the ranks
of unskilled labor, who are attracted to
paratively easy means Of livelihood with
out demanding the same Sweat OF the
brow" which comes from handling the
pick or the shovel or doing other hard
| labor
'It is surprising" said Colonel Leon
hauser, Ito note the number of men who
are clearly physically unfit for the service
who come in here with the confident air
! of men who are sure of immediate &C
| ceptance. Only the other day a man
wanted to enlist who swore that he had
served formerly with Michigan regi-
ment. When I asked him for his dis
charge papers, he explained he had left
| them home. While he did not look the
part of a likely candidate at first sight, !
| questioned him as to his qualifications.
To hear him tell 1t, he was in splendid
| shape physically. I noticed that he walked
! like a man with club feet and when !
asked the wherefore, he admitted that
both feet had once been badly frozen. He
was surprised to learn that bad feet con-
stituted a sufficient ground for disqualif-
| cation. n. g. .''.'' '-
sit is the spirit of adventure and the
prospect of seeing half the world at I'm
| Gle Sans expense which appeals to most
| men who now enter the army. They
| enlist now for three years, and the only
| way they can get out is to pay the gov
| eminent for the privilege. II they grow
| weary of the service they can get back
to civil life by paying the government a
certain stipulated sum. This clause Is in
| serted in the enlistment contract to head
! off assertions, and to rid the service o1
dissatisfied men in the regular way"

HOEvEL QUARTET CONCERTS
The First Will Be Given at First Uni
tartan Church..

Tomorrow night will be given the first
of the series of five chamber concerts by
the Hoevel String quartet at the First
Unitarian church. The concerts are under
the auspices of the Mems. Club of the
First Unitarian society, which is prompted
in undertaking this series by a desire to
awaken a public interest in chamber con-
certs to such an extent that like concerts
may begin regularly each season here
after. -.. ,..t..
1t is said by those who have opportuni-
ties to know, that these concerts will far
excel anything that has ever been at
tempted here before from musical stand
point, the quartet having been in con-
slant practice semi weekly since the early
part of last September. If the first pro-
gram is any sample of what the balance
will be, not even the most critical will
have any reason to find fault. The melo-
dies are such that they cannot help but
please and inspire. Besides the quartet
vocal soloists will appear at each concert
Miss Alberta Fisher, the soprano, will be
the soloist for the first concert. Season
and single admission tickets are on sale al
the Metropolitan Music store.
