Richmond, Va, Specia1-Richmond
church-goers have been busy for the
past week, paying homage to the mem
ory of the Rev. John Jasper, author
and preacher of the famous "seen-do-
move" sermon. A statute to this great
divine was unveiled last week al the
Jasper Memorial church of which the
Rev. Randolph Peyton is the present
pastor. Excursion parties were here
from many other cities and states to
witness the exercises which continued
for nine days. The statue is of pure
white plaster of paris and made by
the Prof Bracket of Atlanta, Ga.
Prof. Bracket, besides being a sculp-
tor, and instructor of historical theol-
ogy at the Morris-Brown College, is
one of the highest degree colored Ma
sons in the South. The exercises were
concluded last Tuesday night with a
large reception which was attended by
hundreds of people.
Plans for the proposed Consolidated
Baptist Convention of the World, are
being perfected link by link. The exc
cutfwe committee of the Ministers Con
ference has been laboring over arrange
ments for the merger at least four
months. many meetings having been
held behind closed doors, and their
work is not as yet completed.
The movement means the merging
or harmonizing of the Lot Cary, Gen
eral Association, and others into the
Negro Baptist Convention of the
World, thus forming what will doubt
less be the Consolidated Baptist Con-
vention of the World.
This move, however, will only be a
peace and harmonious amalgamation
of the bodies and not financial one
A financial consolidation of these as
sociation would be quite impractical as
there are institutions of learning con-
trolled by the American Publication
Society and the Home Mission So
ciety (white) of Philadelphia, that ad-
mits no colored presidents, and this
is decidedly against the policy Of the
Negro Convention of the World.
The memb bers of the City Gun Club
are preparing to entertain their
friends at one of the largest banquets
ever given here. The affair, it is said,
will be a full dress one and every de-
tail will be carefully looked after.
The event will take place on the
10th inst, at Central League Hail.

HAS a SAY.

The School Principal Talks About Food
The Principal Of a High School in a
fourlshing California city says:
For % years l worked in the school
with only short summer vacations. L
formed the habit of eating rapidly,
masticated poorly, which coupled with
my sedentary work led to indigestion,
liver trouble, lame back and rheuma-
tism.
Upon consulting physicians some
doped me with drugs, while others pre-
scribed dieting and sometimes l got
temporary relief, other times not. For
Il years l struggled along with this
handicap to my work, seldom laid up,
but often a burden TO myself with
lameness and rheumatic pains.
"Two years ago 1 met an old friend,
n physician who noticed at once my
out-of-health condition and who pre-
scribed for me an exclusive diet OF
Grape-Nuts, milk and fruit.
81 followed his instructions and in
two months 1 felt like a new man
with no more headaches, rheumatism
or liver trouble and from that time to
this Grape-Nuts has been my main
food for morning and evening meals,
am stronger and healthier than / have
been for years without a trace of the
old troubles.
Judging from my present vigorous
physical and mental state, I tell my
people Methuselah may yet have to
take second place among the old men,
for l feel like l will live a great many
more years.
ITO all tnls remarkable change in
health l am indebted to my wise friend
md Grape-Nuts and | hope the Postum
Co. will continue to manufacture this
life and health giving food for several
centuries yet, until l move to a world
where indigestion is unknown" Name
given by Postum Co., Battle Creek,
Mich.
Ask any physician what he knows
about Grape-Nuts. Those who have
tried it know things.
There's a reason"

Whether or not there really is vege-
tation on the moons surface is a mat
ter OF some dispute. Professor Picker
ing believes that there Is, basing his
belief upon observations OF what he
calls variable spots'-portions which
exhibit a rapid darkening, beginning
shortly after sunrise. following by al
equally rapid fading toward sunset. ac-
companied by n dimunition I'm size as
they darken. From the peculiar char
acter of the variation observed, Profess
sor Pickering concludes that organic
life resembling vegetation is the only
simple explanation Of the changes
which he has observed. Considering
the long lunar day as a miniature ter
restrial year, the theory OF such life
becomes colorado. The vegetation, IL
there can be N.Y.. shoots up, fiourishes
and dies In a lunar day just as 1t grows

A Heart Story.

Folsom, $. DIN these days when
so many sudden deaths are reported
from Heart FallGre and various forms
of Heart Disease, it will be good news
to many to learn that there is q never
failing remedy for every form of Heart
Trouble.
Mrs. III. ID. Hyde, OF this place, was
troubled for years with a pain in her
heart which distressed her q great
deal. She had tried many remedies,
but had no succeeded in finding any
thing that would help her until at last
she began a treatment Of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and this very soon relieved
her and she has not had a single pain
or any distress in the region Of the
heart since. She says: II cannot say
too much in praise of Dodd's Kidney
Pills. They are the greatest heart
medicine / have ever used. l was
troubled for over three years with a
severe pain in my heart, which entirely
disappeared after n short treatment Of
Dodd's Kidney Pills"

Czechs and Russians.

Chicago Record Herald: Why a mob
of Czechs In Prague should sympathize
SO vigorously with Russia in her war
with Japan that they should want 1o
wreck an American may De
set down as in large degree a mystery.
OF course the Czechs ave been misin-
formed as to The attitude OF the United
States government toward Japan. But
even were their apparent belie1 correct,
the wonder would still remain. ANY
answer that depended merely upon the
bloody affinity between Russians and
the Czechs will not suffice. 1t 10 true
that the Czechs. who include not only
Bohemians, but also and
SIoyaks, are Slavs, but so also are ths
Poles and Bulgarians. IL blood alone
is TO tell we might fully as well ex-
pect the Czechs to hate Russia out or
sympathy for the Poles as TO love her
because Of the broader race tie.
1t is a fact, however, that there x
lists in Austria an active pan,SlaVic
movement, which is carried on largely
TO counter balance the pan-GermaR
movement. The sokolist societies
fr%aternities OF ohemian students-are
often demonstrative in the cause. The
hatred OF the Bohemians for Germany
ia we'll known, and q loudly proclaimed
love for Russia is an easy way or mani
Testing this hatred. Possibly IL the
Bohemians were in immediate contact
with the Russian frontier they would
sing n different tune. AS 1t is Prussia
and Hungary form uch substantial
bulwarks that love for Russia can be-
INDUCED in with little fear that the
practical process OF classification, such
as the Poles, the Films and other peo-
pies have undergone, will ever be eX-
tended to their own country.

From the London Express: The dis
covery OF a troglodyte (cave dweller)
in the Basque province. neal Fuenter-
rabia, on the Franco-Spanish frontier,
has aroused considerable curiosity
here.
AS a customs guard. with his dogs,
was searching In a wood an eXtraordi-
nary being in the image of a man was
seen to rush before him with wonderful
rapidity and disappear n a hole in a
mountain. The guard followed on, and
found the wild man had blocked up the
entrance to his cave with pieces of
timber and stones, which, however,
were easily removed and the man was
captured.
He was absolutely prehistoric in APP
pearanCe. His only garment was n
skin tied round the hips. His long and
matted beard fell over his chest like a
cloak, while his hair trailed down his
back iE. a thick mass. In his cave were
found numerous bones of sheep, deer
and other animals which he had eaten,
a sling, a club and a stone AK. A bed
of moss was his only furniture.
The guard brought the troglodyte to
Fuenterrabia, where his appearance
created a sensation. Before the magis-
trate he explained that his name was
P~rudencio, he was % ear old and had
been, when an infant, an inmate OF a
founding hospital in San Sebastian.
He had formerly acted Is farm hand,

and the AK, and was able to kill deer
and sheep which had strayed. AS he
had no fire he ate the flesh of these ami
nails raw.

NO DUMPING GROUND.
South Dakota Pure Food DEPARTMENT.
Splendid Work.

Brookings, S. D., April 25.-It is not
generally known that the analytical
| work of the pure food and dairy COM
missioner of South Oak Is done at
the state agricultural college at Brook
ings, under the direction OF Professor
J. II. Sheppard.
A few years ago South Dakota was
the dumping ground for all the adul-
terated and 10y grade goods that could
not be sold elsewhere. The state was
folded with spurious cider vinegars
artihcally made md doctored UP SO
that they resembled genuine vinegar.
These were sold at a high price and
brought the dishonest dealers a large
profit. Canned goods, such as peas
corn, fruits, jellies, jams and preserves.
were formerly made from low grade
material put up with glucose n sac
charine and preserved with some strong
antiseptic, sue as salicylic acid.
benzoic acid or formaldehyde. To
cover up the inferiority the miserable
product was stained with coal tar dye
in order TO make IL appear that the
goods were made from first class raw
material.
IL Is now almost impossible TO find
any OF these adulterated goods OF the
market. Hundreds of analyses have
been made and the results have been
published and scattered broadcast over
the state These brands have been
named and citizens have become ed
ucated so that they refuse to buy goods
which have been condemned by the
commissioner. Moreover, the grocers
have learned that they are not COM
PEELED TO pay for illegal goods which
have been foisted upon them and the
result Is hat the people Will not buy
and the grocers will not stand for the
dishonest and unhealthful goods.
The commissioners has been ham
pered for lack OF funds and the next
legislature will be asked for a liberal
appropriation. There are certain lines
OF goods not put w by large manufac-
turers which are difficult to reach, such
as ~flavoring extracts and fountain
syrups and no sooner is one brand OF
spurious goods OF this kind condemned
another will spring up somewhere
else. The result Is that all kinds OF
coal tar dye, antiseptics, and even wood
alcohol are found on the market under
the guise of pure extract OF lemon,
banana, vanilla, etc. These need con-
slant watching and more funds are
to suppress them.
An exhibit for the worlds fair Of
st. Louis Is now in preparation; under
the auspices of the national pure food
and dairy commission, for the purpose
OF aCquainting the people with just
what dishonest manufacturers are CO.
ing, Two samples OF each adulterated
product are secured. One Is left intact
Just as found on the dealers shelves;
the other is analysed n the results

Fires From Electric Wires.

From the Toronto Globe: 1t was
claimed at one time hat the substitu-
ton Of electricity for gas and petro-
leum in lighting would result in a les
sening OF the danger from fire. But a
recent report issued by the Montreal
fire and light committee tends to show
that the danger has been increased
rather than diminished by the change
The report gives a record of $50 fires
due to electric currents during the last
three months Of 1903, with an aggre-
gate loss of 81, 800, 900. When classed
according TO causes, the list shows that
twenty-five fires were due to the Con
TACT Of telephone, telegraph and other
low potential wires with electric light
and other high tension circuits. Wires
grounded on gas pipes were responsible
for nineteen fires. Eleven fires were
due to defective wiring of gas fixtures.
five to the puncturing Of gas pipes by
the currents on flexible cords wrapped
around them, three to short circuits In
holdings, three to open link fuses In
porcelain cut out bases, fifteen TO over
resistance coils n heating de-
vices, and nine TO inCandescept lamps
coming in contact with inflammable
material. In the same report l35 fires
are recorded in which electricity was
suspected Of being the cause, but In
which all material evidences OF origin
were destroyed.
