MARCHAND AND FASHODA.

The "Fashoda incident" of 1898 had
an element Of the comic in it, but the
stock exchanges took it somewhat
seriously Fire-e eating Major Marchand,
with a French commission and a native
convoy. had penetrated the African
Jungle to a point on the Upper Nile
claimed as Egyptian territory, and
therefore as subject to Great Britain.
There be set up the colors Of France.
Sir Herbert Kitchener. moved deliber-
ately down to put him back into
French domain. The question was,
would the two forces collide?
Consols had opened September at
1101s, French rentes at 10215; they fell
to 109% and 102, respectively, but that
was all. Kitchener behaved with ex-
emplary discretion, and while Mar
chand did not. he only succeeded in ex-
citing laughter. because, while his We
hement protests were arriving, 1t was
well known that he was out OF food
and living on Kitchener's good -natured
hospitality. 1t was apparently under
stood by all well-informed people, from
the start. that when the Paris news
papers had been allowed a few weeks
Of infammatory outburst. M. Delcasse
would yield gracefully, as, in fact. he
did. Markets refused to be frightened
and were quite warranted In doing so.

FINE SERMON BY REV MIR POST.

FINE SERMON BY REV MIR POST.
 Rev MT Post delivered a good ser mon from his pulpit here, last Sunday morning, upon Christian Zeal and Earnestness," quite fully explaining the benefits of an honest heart. It IS his opinion that mankind live and con- tinue on too low plane--not exercis- ing their privileges in accordance with their opportunities. The cares of this world, the deceitfulness of tinan- cial fortune, and the more dire temp ta.ions and allurementS of worldly life, chokes the truth, callouses the mind and heart and plucks the good seed implanted in all which otherwise kept and nurtured would bring forth many fold of good in this life and eter- nal life beyond in the Masters King dom. The close of the sermon was direct and impressive appeal to all to ask themselves the questions, "HOw much have l inoreased the talents God gave me to use and grow and 1m- prove? Has my life been at all sue cesSful? Have l done any good for anyone?"

 E. R. Beeman intends to devote his time the coming summer, to the cul ture of potatoes and onions on land he has rented of F. J. Hosford.

 Men of science and students of medi- cine have tried in vain for years to find positive cure, but it has remained for one living in our own generation to fin ally discover what he claims to be cer- tain remedy for Catarrh of any organ of the body. His claims are vouched for by the words of hundreds of people whose honesty cannot be doubted; people who have suffered for years and tried every other known re m edy without avail; people who had not faith at first bu, were finally cured and convinced of the wonderful power of this new discovery in medical science. .
 The famous physician to whom the credit belongs for this wonderful devel' ,pmcnt and addition to twentieth-cent. ury science is DR. J. A. LoMAs,
 Fredericksen Bldg, South Bend, In' He will send anyone who is suffering fr' Catarrh free treatment to prove Il. merits and wonderful curative propertie of this new discovery. V Readers are re- quested to describe their case when writ ing to tho doctor for the Free Treatment If you have any other disease, pain oi afhiction besides Catarrh, write the docto- about 1t and he will send . free treatmec for that also at the same time he send you tho Free Treatment for Catarrh.
