Confederate War Roster.

The War Department has embarked
on the work of compiling and publish
ing complete roster of the officers
and enlisted men of the Union AMI
Confederate armies. The North,
through separate publications, has COW
cred this ground for its own soldiers.
but the Southern records and archives,
never complete. have been scattered
and in some cases destroyed. Many
are in the possession of the various
States, but others are held by histor-
ical and memorial associations and
private citizens. The Governors of
Confederate States are called upon to
cooperate with the department in the
effort to make the compilation as near
ly complete as is possible.

blood, and to attempt cure by exter-
nal treatment is an endless, hopeless
task. Some simple wash or ointment
is often beneficial when the skin is
much infamed or itches, but you can't
depend upon local remedies for perma-
nent relief, for the blood is continually
throwing off impurities which irritate
and clog the glands and pores of
the skin, and as long as the blood re-
mains unhealthy, just SO long will the
eruptions last. To effectually and per-
manently cure skin troubles the blood
must be purified and the system
thoroughly cleansed and built up, and
S. S. S., the we'll known blood purifier
and tonic, is acknowledged superior to
all other remedies for this purpose. It
is the only guaranteed strictly vegeta-

Question as to Minister'S Author

CLERGYMAN NOT NATURALIZED.
The Reverend George Bates Re-
ceives Vows of Mr.. and Mrs.
Thornton-Were United
by Doctor Bates.

Mr.. and Mrs. E. D. Thornton of Maple
wood we're remarked last night at the resi-
dence of the Reverend George Bates pas
tor of the Ark of the Covenant Church in
Maplewood The first ceremony was per-
formed November II, 1902. The second cere-
mony was caused by doubt in their minds
as to the validity Of the first wedding. the
clergyman not being naturalized citizen.
The Reverend Harry Blunt. pastor of the
Old Orchard Congregational Church. per-
formed the ceremony last night. Doctor
Bates officiated at the former ceremony.
Thornton said that Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse
Vincent, another couple married by Doctor
Bates, would be remarked next Monday.
They were to have been married last night
with them, but experienced difficulty In get
ting their license In St. louis.
Doctor Batess candor in coming forward
when he found he made an error and
promptly confessing the mistake caused the
dilemma In which Mr.. and Mrs. Thornton
and Mr.. and Mrs. Vincent were placed.
The minister of the Maplewood church
was born and raised in Canada and had
not become a naturalized citizen when he
ofiiciated at their marriage. The Missouri
statutes prescribed as one Of the Qualifica-
tions of the officiating minister or magiS-
trate that he be native or naturalized
citizen
Mr. and Mrs Vincent applied to Recorder
Of Deeds Young for a license yesterday
and were told that the application would
have to be taken under advisement. Mr..
Young does not know whether or not he
would be carrying out the law by issuing
a second license to the couple.
The Recorder has submitted the applica-
ton of the Vincents to City Counselor
Bates and the latter's opinion is expected
in few days.

must first be in peace himself

Mrs. Haesle considerable liquor. ThirkicC
the woman had enough liquor, Marx ra-
