A young man at st. Mende was driv-
en- mad by a legacy of $4,000. From
the moment the money came into his
possession he was oppressed by the
fear Of losing it and always carried it
about with him. He finally made a
bonfire of it in the form Of notes and
then attempted to blow out his brains

NATIONAL TURNERBUND.
Women VIII Not he Admitted-Res-
oIution Adopted to Tax All
Church Property.

Davenport, Ia, July THE second
day of the national convention Of the
North American Turnerbund was
marked by many heated discussions.
Three hours were spent discussing
the question of the admission of
women TO full membership, the sub
iect, in the opinion of many dele
gates, being the most important be-
fore the convention.
1t was proposed to make it option
al with the societies to admit women
and receive them on passes and from
other societies. The proposition was
defeated by 1873 AS votes against to
154 1-5 for it. A two-thirds vote is
necessary to make the change.
The important place was given in
the proceedings to-day to the reso-
lutions urging the exemption of
Turner property from taxation, the
proposition being favored by many
eastern delegates, in whose states
much Turner property is exempt.
Inc inOlt idhitdl tIChitllb LlbAi Ah'
west came In with a counter resolu-
tion declaring for the taxation Of all
society and church property The
radicals carried the day. the resolu-
tion favoring the taxation Of church
property being adoSted.
1t was decided not to hold the next
Turnerfest until 1905, thus defeating
the hopes of st, Louis and Chicago
delegates for 1904 The fest was of
fered to Indianapolis, which has un-
til tomorrow to accept Pittsburg
secured the next business convention
to be held in 1904 indianapolis was
continued as the business headquar'
ter. The bund adopted a resolution
favoring free text books in schools.

Nuts are more easily digested if

To avoid fatigue when sewing change

Tooth powder containing camphor
sometimes causes the enamel Of the

A cold onion poultice has saved life
in grave cases of capillary bronchitis
affecting children. Two or three large
onions are cut up rapidly and as finely
as may be practicable. The mince is
placed in muslin and the poultice SO
formed is laid upon the chest, 1t is
covered with pad of folded towels, til
whole being bound in position with a
bandage. The poultice may be left
on for some hours. A great portion of
the sulphide of allyl is inhaled; some
part is absorbed through the skin. Tn,
der the influence of the drug the pa
tient sleeps, the expeetoration becomes
freer, the breathing easier. the skin
perspires, the temperature falls and
the danger to life is overcome,

WilResbarre, Pa, July s.-Ths
ninth week of the anthracite coal
miners strike opened extremely
quiet. Conditions around the collier
les remain unchanged.
The strikers of this district, which
is composed of all the territory from
Forest City, 90 miles north of scran-
ton, to Shickshinny, 16 miles south OF
here, were interested in the annual
convention which opened at Nanti-
coke. The meeting, in point of mum.
bers, was the largest in the history
Of the district. As far as is known
no very important business will come
before the convention. President
Nichols is sure of a reelection, as
are also most of the others. Vice
President Adam Ruscayage and Sec
retary John Dempsey are being op'
posed for reelection.
President Mitchell's sudden depar
turc for New York, Sunday, continues
to excite interest among the miners
here. Outside of statement made

Mississippi State News


The Mississippi treasury now con-
tains the smallest amount Of cash
for several years, and the finances of
the State are at low ebb for the sum-
mer season. The books were bal
anced by Treasurer Carlisle on the
lst and showed only $495132.02 on
hand. Fortunately, however, very
little is to be paid out during the
next two months, the chief expendi-
lures being the current expenses of
the State government and the
monthly allowances to the new State
House contractors. Governor Lon
gino is still confident that the State
House can be completed without the
necessity Of bond issue.

day, adopted the following:
"Resolved, That while indorsing on
general principles the exposition at

it may have the largest success, we
note with regret that no representa-

people among the commissioners ap'

that no provision has been made by
the management Of the exposition for
a proper exhibition Of the thought
