Seldom has a more distinguished body of people been collected in Washington to do honor. either to the living or the dead. The floor of the chamber was filled with the representatives of the official life of the national caDital, and in the galleries were many persons of distinction in the professonal and busi- ness world Admission to the galleries was so regulated that there was no crowding. but there were no vacant seats.
 In the front rank of the eminent as- senblage gathered immediately about the bier sat the president. He was flanked by the members of his cabi- net, all of whom had been closely affili- ated with Senator Hanna by ties of friendship and political association. Nearby were the chief justice and the associate justices of the supreme court of the United States. in their black robes of office. There were hardly any absentees from among the members of the Senate. The desk of their late col- league was heavily draped.
 The religious ceremony was conduct ed hy the Rev. pr. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the Senate, and the services were simple and dignifed.

 Washington, Feb. 17.-Rear-Admiral Evans. commanding the Asiatic squad- ron, to-day transmitted to the navy de- partment a cabIegram from Commando CT Staunton, of the gunboat Helena, now in Mud dock at New Chwang, Chi ma. in which he says that conditions there are greatly disturbed, and that he is vigorously Investigating the re- port that the Russian officials have de- layed certain American and British merchantmen.
 In the event that the American con- sulate is endangered, it is stated that Commander Staunton will land blue jackets and marines for the protection of Consul Miller. There is every wish on the part of this government not to give the slightest cause for complaint by either Russia or Japan of interven- tion, but the unalterable American pol icy of protecting American interests at all hazards will be adhered to.
 London, Feb. 1S.-Despatches publish ed in London newspapers this morning continue to give alleged descriptions of the embarking of Japanese troops. I'm stead Of this embarkation occurring secretly from Ujina, as was the case during the Chino-Japanese war, the transports, according to despatches published in the Daily Telegraph and the Daily Mail, are openly embarking troops from Nagasaki. Moji, Kobe and elsewhere.
 A cablegram to the Daily Telegraph from Nagasaki says transports are clearing every night from these ports for Corea and ten large steamers were embarking troops at Nagasaki last Monday. All arms of the service were represented, but the cavalry horses were such sorry and scrubby ponies that they hardly seemed worth trans portation. The authorizations are all re- markably well managed. Numerous shallow sampans (small harbor boats) as well as ordinary boats suitable for being rowed or lowed in shallow water or through heavy surf are taken on the transports.
 Cabling from Shanghai under date of February IT a corresuondent of the Daily Telegraph declares that com- bined movement between a Japanese fleet and large landing force from Ma gasaki is now proceeding.

THE OLD PLEA
He "Didn't Know It Was Loaded

The coffee drinker seldom realizes that coffee contains the drug caffeine, a serious poison to the heart and nerves thereby causing many other forms of disease, noticeably dyspepsia.
 T was a lover of coffee and used it for many years, and did not realize the bad effects I was suffering from it's use.
 At first I was troubled with indiges- tion, but did not attribute the trouble to the use of coffee, but thought it arose from other causes. With these attacks I had sick headache, nausea and vomiting. Finally my stomach J was in such a condition I could scarce ly retain my food.
 T consulted physician; was told all z my troubles came from indigestion but was not informed what caused the in- digestion, so I kept on with the coffee and kept on with the troubles too, and my case continued to grow worse from year to year until it developed into chronic diarrhea, nausea and severe attacks of vomiting, so I could keep nothing on my stomach, and became a mere shadow, reduced from 159 to 12S pounds.
 "A specialist informed me had a very severe case of catarrh of the stomach, which had got so bad he could do nothing for me, and became convinced my days were numbered.
 Then chanced to see an article set ting forth the good qualities of Postum and explaining how coffee injures peo- pie, so concluded to give Postum a trial. I soon saw the good effects-my headaches were less frequent, nausea and vomiting only came at long inter- vals, and I was soon a changed man, feeling much better,
 Then thought I could stand coffee again, but as soon as I tried it my old troubles returned, and I again turned to Postum. Would you believe it, did this three times before had sense enough to quit coffee for good and keer on with the Postum; the result is am now well man with no more head aches sick stomach or vomiting, and have already gained back to 147 pounds" Name, given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek.

JERSEY CENTRAL BREAKS REC.
 ORD.
Harrisburg Flyer" Runs 7S Miles in T
 Minutes


 A new speed record has been made on the Central Railroad of New Jersey by the east-bound Harrisburg flyer"
 This train on February 12 made the run from Phillipsburg, Pa, to Jersey City, a distance of seyenty-three miles, in sev- enty- eight minutes. The time con- stunned included three stops, several slow-downs for crossings and bridges.
 Many miles were made at the rate of forty seconds to the mile, and if the train had come through without stop ping the run would have been made in about sixty-six minutes.
 The train, known to the public as the Queen of the Valley leaves Harris burg daily at a. m. It left February
 12 on time, and was held up twenty two minutes at Bethlehem Junction wait ing for the Philadelphia and Reading connection. That delay caused the train to pull into Phillipsburg behind time.
 CONTENDED WITH UP GRADE. | Engine 571 was drawing the train, with Frank Eek at the throttle. When
 Eek drew out of Phillipsburg he deter-
 mined to make up some of the lost time.
 There is an up grade from Phillipsburg to Hampton Junction, but Eek took it ] in rush.
 From Hampton Junction to North Branch, a distance of fifteen miles, the
 run is down the side of a mountain, and when that stretch was reached the train fairly flew. Several miles were made on this section at the rate of thirty eight seconds to the mile. or in other | words at the rate of 94.74 miles per
 hour. From North Branch to Somer- vile, miles were made in forty seconds. A stop was made at Somerville for
 passengers, and when the train pulled out a good part of the lost time had been made up. Between Somerville and Plainville there was some more fast
 running Another stop was made at Plainville, and third stop at Eliza beth
 The run in from Elizabeth was neces- sarily much slower, owing to the junc- tions' and switches at Elizabethport Another cause of delay at this point was the fact that the draw in the bridge over Newark Bay is being changed
 The orders there are for trains to cross the bridge at that point at speed noi exceeding four miles an hour The bridge is seven thousand feet long and trains run slowly over 1t at all times. ARRIVED EXACTLY ON TIME. Owing to the multiplicity of switches 1 in the Jersey Centrals yards, which TUT from Elizabethport to Jersey City, the train proceeded slowly to the terminal
 where it arrived at 12:2s, exactly or time.
 1 No preparation had been made for g particularly fast run and Eek was not looking to make record when he did it
 His sole effort was to make up the time | lost at Bethlehem Junction. The en- zine which drew the train was formerly l a compound that had been converted

So strongly, indeed, Goes this truth

he makes the resurrection the symbol

life. Every Christian is to him res

life which died and rose agaia. A I'D

The Christian dies dailv to sin and

And the thought is trt9. Death lies
between every life AMI a fuller or
