Obituary.

Died, Sept. TO- 1902 of consumption
at the home of bis mother, Mrs. r. W.
Bennington, Mr.. Frank Powell aged
almost 80 years. Frank had been a
patient sufferer for long time but
bore his suffering with remarkable
patience and always had smile of
welcome and kind word for his
many friends. Franks life had been
but few short years among US yet
one could see how he was loved by
the large crowd who visited him and
attended his funeral Notwlthstand-
ing the inclement weather friends
came from miles away to pay the last
tribute of love and respect to one
whose life, though full of sorrow, had
been true to his friends, true to him
self and above all true to his God.
Frank gave his heart to God and
united with the Christian church
while in California and brought home
splendid church letter from there.
He told different ones that he was
glad he had made the start to do
right when he did and that he was
ready and willing to die. He took
his mothers hand when his hand was
cold in death and laid it on his fore
head, smiling at her as if to say,
"Mother, l will soon be gone " He
would say, Mother, don't fret for me,
but be thankful that I will be past all
suffering" lis prayer for months was
to die with his friends around him
and to be conscious, dying as if he
were going TO sleep, which prayer was
answered.
Frank leaves mother, a step
father, two brothers, one sister and
many relatives and friends to mourn
his loss. The funeral was preached
at his home, on Sunday at D. M. by
Rev. Forsythe and he was laid to rest
i n the Shaw cemetery. The family
have the sympathy of entire COM
munity in their sorrow.
A FRIEND.

DEVOURED BY WORMS.

Children often cry, not from pain,
but from hunger, although fed
abundantly. The entire trouble
arises from inanition, their food Is not
assimilated, but devoured by worms.
A few doses of Whites Cream Vermi-
fuge will cause them to cease crying
and begin to thrive at once, very
much to the surprise and joy of the
mother. Csc at Geo. p. Wilder's.

MARQUIS ITO's ESCAPE.
How the Daring Nobleman Managed
to Leave Japan.
From Scribner's Magazine.

From Scribner's Magazine.
What could not be accomplished openly
| might be accomplished by stealth. At the
age Of nineteen, with the easy confidence
Of boy on a lark Ito led his dearest
friend, the present Count Inouye, and three
other young men into a project which
would delight the heart Of Funston.
Eluding the guards at dusk, they entered
the concession of Yokohama and crept to
the house of Mr.. Keswick, a British mer-
chant. There the four followers, fearing
betrayal to the authorities by native ser
wants. hid IN the garden while Ito went for
ward to remind the owner of his promise
to assist him to get passage to Europe.
Mr.. kesWick took them aboard a British
ship then in the harbor, expecting no diff
Guilty. But the captain refused to receive
them, on the ground that by being a party
to the violation of one of the most jealousy
guarded of Japanese laws he ran the risk
of having his own vessel refused entrance
to the port thereafter. and of making
trouble for his government. But the future
premier was prepared for this argument.
We have left our swords behind. so we
have ceased to be samurai' he said. I'VE
have cut off our queues SO our country
will no longer recognize us as Japanese. AS
noblemen we will not endure the punish
ment, let alone the degradation which
awaits our return. We shall kill ourselves
here and now unless you take with YOU"
The captain knew that they would be as
good as their word. 1t was not pleasant to
contemplate five young men making trian-
gular incisions in their bowels with con-
certed calmness and precision. Besides. the
bloody remains of five young samurai on
his deck would require more explanation
than their living presence. He took the
only humane way out of the dilemma.
They went as passengers who had paid
their fare. but the skipper regarded them
as interlopinR heather" who ought to be
punished with work. Stomachs used to an
oriental dietewere fed on salt horse and
biscuit. Soft hands used to playing with
fans and swords took their turn at short
of oaths from the mate. Nauseated by the
food and by seasickness, stung by the hu-
initiation of doing a coolies work for a
low-born barbatian. only their sense of duty
to their country restrained them from fol-
lowing out the japanese gentlemen's code
and committing suicide.

PRESBYTERIANS TO REUNITE.
Action Taken by Two Presbyteries in
Illinois

DECATUR. H.. September 4.-Action has
been taken by the Decatur and Lincoln
presbyteries of the Cumberland Presbyte
rian church which is expected to result in
the reunion of the Cumberland Presbyte
RAN and Presbyterian churches, which
separated in 1910. DR.. w. ]. Darby of
Evansville. Ind. educational secretary of
the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, said
TODAY that the action the result of the
revision of creed by the Presbyterians and
he had no doubt the presbyteries of the
Cumberland church all over the country
would take up the matter and demand an
opening of negotiations for a reunion of the
churches.
The Decatur and Lincoln presbyteries
both adopted resolutions declaring that the
creed of the Presbyterian church. as re-
vised removed all doctrinal differences over
which the churches split, and there was no
reason why they should not reunite.
The Lincoln presbytery went further and
adopted memorial to the general assem-
bly, OF the Cumberland Presbyterians at
Nashville. demanding that the matter of
union be taken up and negotiations to that
end be opened with the Presbyterians.
