pers of incorporation last Friday, with
jonathan d. Cathell, William H Harri-

several years past, through an oversight,
the names of the trustees of the church
were not regularly reported according
to the terms of the original charter
Fearing that this might nullify the old
chapter, the present trustees decided to
take advantage of the new code and re-
incorporate under its broad provisions.

lisa was young Russian girl, the
Naughter of a general At the time the
3 C -1E1l war broke out she was en-
gagged to Dimitri Olizoff, lieutenant in
tne Russian army. There are cases
~nere lovers become so wrapped in
eacn other that separation is agony. So
al was with these two young people
When Dimitri Olizoff departed for the
:, ward Lisa held to him till the last
utnute ana fell in stupor when he
left her.
II mad been arranged between them
tnat Oilzof should not only send word
oy everyday mail, but telegraph her in
case OF his being wounded or taken
SICK. This might involve sending news
OF battle. The Russian government
gives out all the news, not permitting
even the newspaper correspondents to
send any except what has passed
censor. Therefore Olizoff would not
only be obliged to send his message
surreptitiously, but in cipher. The
lover arranged a code, giving Lisa the
key. He did not tell her that there was
little hope of his being able to use it.
Still, since the cipher was simply few
ordinary sentences, each with a special
meaning, the sending of message was
not impossible.
Olizof was wealthy, and Russian off,
Gals are very corrupt. He made the
acquaintance of telegrapher at head
quarters and arranged with him for
1000 rubles to send q message if re-
Quired.
One evening Lisa was at an enter
tainment at the house Of Vladimir
Sohnski, prominent government Of
fetal at st. Petersburg. The Malakoff
had been stormed and the government
was especially DESTROYS of keeping
news which forebode the defeat Of the
Russian cause from the people. The
host knew Of it and was instructed to
proceed with his entertainment, since
a postponement would excite suspicion.

OBSERVATIONS
THE BEE AS CURE FOR RHEUMATISM.

Quite a stir has been created
by the announcement made few
days since that rheumatism can be
cured by the sting of a bee. DR..
Ferc' an eminent physician and
scientist, made the discovery, and
ne and his friends assert that it is
a positive cure for the malady. In
some cases, it seems, one or two
good stings will drive away all
signs of rheumatism while in other
instances it is necessary to have the
patient stung as many as 5000
times before a permanent cure is
effected.
What wonderful things science
is accomplishing! A few days ago
the only safeguard a man had
against rheumatism was to carry a
buckeye around in his pocket, but
to-day all that is necessary is to be
stung about 5000 times by a
swarm of bees.
