 TALK. Tho Kind That Carries Con. victiOn to Every Mont.
 gomery Reader.

Conviction must follow such emphatic proof as is given here. The testimony of Montgomery residents should satisfy the most skeptical. Here Is a Montgomery case. Read 1t and see if doubt can exist in the face of this evidence:
 George Bernard. the well-known fruit dealer of llO Jefferson Street, says: I knew for some time that my kidneys were affected. There was a dragging pain through the small of my back, and was weak and easily tired. The pain grew very sharp and annoying when I worked hard for any length of time. heard of Doan's Kidney Pills and I got a box at E. G. Fowler's Drug Store. They did me so much good that l procured another. The pills soon cured me entirely. The aching pains disappeared and have not been troubled for some time.'

THE SHADOW OF CORBIN
sTTLC HANGS OVER THE UNITED
 STATES ARMY.
His Transfer to the Line Means That He Will Soon Be Back as. Chief of the General
 Stan.

Washington, Oct 2-(SpeciaD-No event in army circles in time of peace has eiicited for years more interest than tils transfer of General Corbin from the stan to the line.
 It is the understanding the step was taken at his request.
 There has been more or less friction about headquarters ever since Corbin has been in Washington. He has achieved reputation as without a peer as a warrio.- = politician. His first lessons were taken when he was detailed to the White House during Garfield's administration. He has managed to keep close to every adminis- tration since that time.
 As Adjutant General his power was without a parallel in the history or the army. He was practically the war De partment. For a civil war record which contained a part that has not borne the light of publicity and for favoritism which he indulged freely, he has been distrusted by many and frequently hated by not a few of his comrade- -omcers. Nevertheless. except that a Democratic administration should occur, Coroln' as he stands in line for that post, Is due to be back in Washington in less than two years as chief of stan and head of the army.
 General Young has not long to serve before he will be retired and Cha1ee. succeeding next, can hold out but a few months when he will reach the age limit. Then comes Corbin.

 tarium When Her Sister In-

|. From the little town of Lowville. on
 the line of the Rome, Watertown and Ogdensburg Railroad, in Lewis County,
 New York, comes a remarkable story
 which the most careful investigation has
 shown to be literally true. It is mar
 rative of deep human interest. in which
 an estimable young lady, suffering from
 disease and almost wrecked by powerful
 drugs, was kept from a sanitariun and
 her life and reason saved by her sisters
 faith.
 The young lady is Miss Jennie M Lee,
 of Park Avenue, Lowville, N. T., and her
 story is given as she related it to a re- porter at her home a few days ago. "I
 suffered for a year from nervous debility
 and anaemia," she said, land was con-
 fined to my bed a great part of the time.
 was subject to terrible hallucinations
 and was afraid to close my eyes at night
 on account of the terrifying things
 seemed to see. was very thin and pale,
 my appetite was capricious and. during the nervous attacks. believe was al-
 most insane.
 ..My own doctor gave me up and sew
 eral other physicians agreed with him
 that my case was incurable. They gave
 me morphine until 1t affected my heart and then administered ohloral. There
 was not a single night in the year when
 I went to sleep without the use of mor- phine. chlOraf or other drugs gwen me
 by the doctor. It had been about de- cided upon to send me to a sanitarium, when my sister saw Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People mentioned in newspaper and to that fact owe my present good health. At my sisters so- iicitation I began taking the pills and was benefited at once. I soon found that could go to sleep without the use of drugs and the improvement thus begun was gradual but permanent. I am now fully restored to health, weigh thirty pounds more than during my illness and have had no nervous attacks for over three years. I attribute my cure entirely to Dr.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo- pie and am glad to give any endorsement l to this grand remedy"
 This case strikihgly illustrates the pow CT of pr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People to cure so-called hopeless cases which do not yield to ordinary medicines. These pills act on both the blood and nerves and in this is the secret of their wonderful success. This Is the reason why they cure such diseases as rheumatism in all it's forms, anaemia, partial paralysis. locomotor ataxia and many other disor- ders apparently different from each other but springing from common causes. pr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are sold by all druggists. or will be sent postpaid on receipt of price, fifty cents per
 box; six boxes for two dollars and fifty cents, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Com pany, Schenectady, N. Y.

UNION OF CHURCH.
Committee Issues Statement of the
 Work Done.


 St. Louis. Oct 2.-Committees on CO., operation and union of the Presbyterian Church and the Cumberland Presbyterian Church which have been in session Tour days to-day adjourned and tonight is- sued the following statement:
 While no final agreements were reacn- ed at this meeting, encouraging progress was made towards outlining a proposal of a basis of union to be submitted 10 the two general assemblies.
 s.Tentatively proposals of a basis of un- ion made by the Presbyterian Committee were responded to with like proposals by the Cumberland Presbyterian committees Pending the submission of a second paper by the Presbyterian committee. the Cum berland Presbyterian committee agreed with the Presbyterian committee to sub init the whole matter to subcommittee of six each from each committee, said committee to formulate a concurrent re- port to be finally considered by later Joint meeting of the two committees in St. Louis.
 s'In all the associations and negotia- tions of the two committees. both sever ally and jointly. there was absolute cor diality and fraternity, and there were no negative votes upon any question finally acted upon by either committee or m the joint committee conferences. Such unan- imity was the normal fruitage. we be- Ieve, of the devotional spirit that per vaded every session, the answer to the prayers of the members of both churches everywhere. o
 while slight doctrinal and other dif- fererces were thought to exist by some members of the committees, thought full and prayerful consideration or these supposed barriers has so far either re- moved these obstacles or so nearly shown them not actually to exist. that we en- certain the confident hope that within very few years reunion may be accom- plished in a manner wholly creditable to both churches and honor to our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
 ..Pending further. negotiations and un- til final action shall have been taken. 1t is of course, impossible to explain In de- tail the proposals under consideration or to announce the basis upon which we all expect to reach an agreement

STRUGGLED TRICK WATCHES.
Paul Reinemann Comes from Nurem-
 burg to Answer Charge.

New York. Oct. 2.-Coming voluntarily from Nuremburg. Germany. to surrender and answer to a charge made by the gov- ernment of entering a fradulent invoice, Paul Feinemann has been arranged be- fore United States Commissioner Shilds and entered a plea of not guilty. He furnished cash bail in the sum of s2,500.
 According to the complaint. Reinemann. who is engaged in the export hop busi- ness and had New Pork office( ship ped a quantity of hops to Carl Neidhardt, at Chattanooga, Tenn, valued at $5,00o. In one of the bales of hops. the compliant says, exporter placed two dozen toy trick watches valued at g each. which were not on the invoice. The presence of the watches in the hops was in some unknown manner discovered by the government agents. who permitted them to remain that they might arrest Neidhardt after he had taken them out.
 The latter pleaded guilty to the charge of the indictment by the federal courts of Tennessee. The motive for sending the so-called trick watches in the hops, waA not, 1t is stated, to escape paying the dnty, but to get them into this coun- try.

THE SCHEME FAILED.
Forgery in Effort to Save the Van
 Wormers,

Albany. N. Y. Oct. 2.-Forgery of the official title of the head of the nation fig ures in an attempt made yesterday to save the three Vanwormer brothers from the death chamber at Dannemora prison. Less than half an hour before the time set for the execution, Warden Deyo re- ceived the following telegram:
 West Point Station, Oct. 1. George Deyo, warden.
 The vanwormer boys must not be ex- ecuted to-day. A stay has been granted.
 By order of the President of the United States" -'
 Warden Deyo at once consulted with some of the witnesses present and con- cluded the message was a forgery sent for the purpose of delayin gthe execu- ton beyond the official day. It was con- cluded first that the President could not interfere except through Governor Odell. and second, that reprieve could not be accepted by telegraph, but must be by personal signature or in personal inter- view by telephone.
 No attention was therefore paid to the communication, but every endeavor was made to find the sender to prosecute him or her.
 Another incident of the execution yes terday was the suspension of Keeper Da- wis for selling to certain newspapers the contents of the message written by the Vanwormer brothers to their friends.

 Chancellor McCracken of New York University. deplored the lack of church training shown by the average student in his annual address to the students body today. He said:
 q wish We could require from every freshman a Sunday school diploma that would certify that he knew by heart the Ten Commandments the Sermon on the Mount, a church catechism of some kind. A score of the Scripture psalms and best classic hymns This university will join any association of universities and col Ieges that will demand this as an en- trance requirement. So much as in us lies, we will make the college place for preserving and strengthening reverence for things divine"

Summary of Features.

New York Oct. 2.-Special telegrams to the International Mercantile Agency re- garding more important trade features are summarized as follows:
 ome concern has been felt lest the wage reduction movement begun by pig iron makers and the building trades at St. Louis and elsewhere may extend to other lines. Wholesale and retail trade in the iron and coal regions Is somewhat upset over the shut-downs, present and pros pective, talk of cancellations of orders for some varieties of steel, and checked buying by some manufacturers.
 In other directions trade is encouraging. Hardware is most active at Pittsburg. Shoe manufacturers are having a very large trade. Stove and furniture makers at St. Louis are ordered far ahead. Lou isville Is overrun with country merchants. which ties up the port and affects gen. eral business.
 It is now clear that there will he a two billion b.lshel crop of corn and wheat will be above the average. This Is ai- ready reflected in a better movement ex- mercial bills and drop in foreign ex- change. Corn receipts are far behind last year.
 W. P. brown, of cotton corner fame. states to the International Mercantile Agency that there will certainly be no clnes to predict as to the current crop year.
 Aside from iron mine and furnace re- gions, and in some building lines, careful canvass reveals no tendency thus far to reduce wages Structural material. Iron and steel is quiet. No new foreign bus mess in steel or iron. New England cot ton mills are slowly resumng.. Woolen mills there are running full time.

TO IMPROVE NEGRO.
Convention Being Held in Brooklyn
 to Devise Means.

New York Oct. 2.-About one hundred delegates are attending a convention in Brooklyn having for its object the for nation of a national association to im- prove the condition of the colored people.
 Rev. Dr. Dean R. Babbitt, in address, ing the convention, deplored sectionalism, urged race harmony and pointed out the great dangers in the present situation of dragging the race question into politics.
 The object of the delegates is to organ ize a cooperative society and to estab- fish such commercial and industrial en- terprises as life insurance, shoe and pro- vision stores, and anything for the benefit of the race.
