ALL KILLED THEMSELVES
Grating Members of an Hungarian

Vienna. Oct. IAN amazing trag-
edy has taken place at Pezzer, a
small municipality in southern Hun
gary. The entire municipal council,
consisting Of seven persons, all related
to each other, committed suicide.
1t appears that an opportunity arose
to sell forest which was municipal
property. The council resolved itself
on this occasion into family selling
council, and secretly made the sale.
The seven divided the proceeds among
themselves.
However, the whole affair was dis
covered in a dramatic manner, when,
rather than face the consequences of
their action, the seven councillors held

end to their lives.

FINDS A WAY TO

Northern Securities President Will
Maintain Merger and Comply
With the Law.
Facts About Ownership Of Northern
Pacific and Great Northern
Stock.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
New York, Oct. 12.-There is alb
solutely no foundation for the current
story that Northern Securities holds
Great Northern. Northern Securi-
ties holds about IS per cent Of the
Great, Northern stock and about 80
per cent Of Northern Pacific. There
has been no change in the amount OF
stock Of these two companies held by
Northern Securities since the evidence
to this effect was submitted to the
court at st. Louis. 49, III.
The story, which was printed; by
most Of the morning papers here, took
it's rise from a mistake made by one
of the evening papers, which stated
Northern stock was voted at the an
nual meeting of Great Northern on
Thursday Since Northern Securi-
ties holdings of Great Northern were
enjoined it was natural to conclude
that Northern Securities holds less
than SO per cent of the stock. &1 49,
AS matter of fact, Northern Pa
cific bylaws are quite different from
Great Northern bylaws in this re-
spect. The bylaws Of Northern Pa
clfic state specifically that over SO per
cent of the stock must be in attend
quorum can be obtained at the annual
meeting. Great Northern bylaws
contain no such clause. If there is
only one stakeholder present at
regularly called meeting of Great
Northern his vote will elect the board.
There was, therefore, no necessity to
vote the IS per cent of the stock held
by Northern Securities. The retiring
directors were reelected on the vote
of less than Is, per cent of the entire
stock.
Neither is there any truth in the
theory that J. J. Hill intends to hold
the Northern Securities company to-
gether In case of an adverse decision
by vesting part Of it's holdings of Great
/ Northern in certain individuals. This
story grew out Of the other Mr.. Hill

W. of the African M. E. church has
been found to be a white man, and
accordingly some of the brethren are
drawing the color line tight and try

The story came out during the
trial of j. w. Bess, member Of the
church, who was charged by Pastor
Fenwick with robbing his residence.

color, replied, II am a gentleman

Mr.. Fenwiek says he never claimed
to be anything but white man, in

colored. He joined the church at

the work thru a desire to help the
colored people. He does not intend
to give up his charge, and says the

WORLD NEEDS A
GREAT REVIVAL
And Ian MacLaren Believes It Is
Coming-says So in
Brochure.
Declares That Need Is Greater Now
Than at Any Time for
Centuries. II.
Now York Sun Special Service.

Chicago, Oct. lathe Rev. John
watson Clan MacLaren), author OF
Beside the Bonnie Brier Bush,' has
published a brochure which expresses
the belief that the world is on the
eve OF the greatest religious revival
since the days when ali Rome sue
cumbed, to the teachings of Christ
In the first century. The first copy of
the document has just arrived from
London. The preacher-author says:
The two most prominent factors
In the world to-day will derive the
revival.
They are, first, the well-to-do
classes, rolling in opulency and ease
the proud and naughty, who look
down on the rest of the world. They
will be shaken out of their self
composure and selfishness.
Second, the proletariat, who, in
this city, as every one knows, reads
the Clarion, and, in America, as every
one knows, the anarchist organs.
These will be benefited by the new
coming of Christ into the hearts of
ated from Christ in a way the church
has no conception Of.
Laborers Leave Church.
TT is not wonderful that the work.
ing men have left the church, since
they have reason to believe the
church sides with the capitalists in
the city and the landlords in the
country. The church has not taken
that humane interest. in the. working
men it should" -
The Rev. Mr.. Watson then COM
plains that the world has not ad-
vanced with years and is at a. stand
still as far as religion and certain
phases Of literature are concerned. No
great men are being brought into ac-
tive life. He continues:
Except in the realm Of science no
real progress is being made, no great
men are rising, no poets, no nOvelists,
no painters, no. statesmen, no preach
ers. 1t is an age of mediocrity and
commonplaceness - ~, ~
I'VE are tired, therefore we are
restless, and Matthew Arnold's words
are still truer to-day than when he
wrote: Your creeds are dead, your
rites are dead, our social order, too;
where tarries he-the power who said:
''See, T make all things new"?'
What does all this mean? 1t means
that the world is in want of some
thing, in want of a revivifying force
If there ever was a time when the
world needed this, that time is now
IF there is one thing the Christian
world needs to-day it is a repetition
of that movement which passed over
the Roman empire in the first cen
fury and saved society from. dissolu-
ton, that movement which in litera-
turee is called the Renaissance in

We Paid 100000

for the rights to Liquozone for the United
States We tested this product for years
in the most difficult germ diseases; then
we bought these rights for the highest
price ever paid for a scientific discovery.
We paid that price because Liquozone
does what all the skill in the world can
not do without it. Any drug that kills
germs is a poison to you and it cannot be
taken internally. The best physicians, the
world over. employ Liquozone alone for
germ troubles; and any physician who
doesn't Is almost helpless in any germ
disease.
