 The interesting ceremony was wit. messed by all the members of the con- eresation together with few others who appeared to know that 1t would take place. The large bell together with its hanging weighs 1,5o0 pounds, was first raised to the proper height, and was then washed with consecrated water and during the blessing was anointed with oil both inside and out.
 After the long ceremony which was entirely in latin, it was hoisted to it's permanent place in the bellfry. The rope was pulled, and the sweet tones floated out over town. This bell was the gift of MT. Thomas S. Sutherland of Troy, N. r., and is said to be the largest in the State. MT. Sutherland also contributed the memorial window in rear of the church in memory of his wife Elizabeth Sutherland, for whom this church is named, the win dow is to cost $500 and all the other windows in the handsome edifice will

WRONG IDEA.

Don't get the wrong idea into your pepsia.
 It's not.
 Those who have not studied the sub iect very deeply, or with trained sclen- tiflc minds. might think so.
 But facts prove otherwise. All specialists in stomach and diges- tive disorders know. that 1t is best for dyspepsia to be well fed.
 Why. dyspepsia is really a starvation disease!
 Your food doesn't feed you.
 By starvation, you may give your bowels and kidneys less to do. but that does not cure your digestive trouble simply makes you weaker and sicker; less likely to be permanently cured No, the only right way to permanent ly cure yourself of any form of dys- pepsia or indigestive trouble, is to eat heartily of all the food that you find best agrees with you. and help your dl- gestion to work with Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets.
 This is a safe. certain, scientific. re- liable method of treatment, which will never fail to cure the most obstinate cases if persevered in.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have a gentle. tonic, refreshing effect on the :ecretory glands of the entire digestive They gently force the How of fresh digestive juices.
 They contain. themselves. many of the chemical constituents of these juices. thus when dissolved they help to dissolve the food around them in stomach or bowels.
 They therefore quickly relieve all the symptoms of indigestion. and coax the glands to take a proper pleasure in do- Ing their proper work.
 They coax you back to health. sort nor any rad system of "Cuitureh or Cure" will give you the solid, per manent. curative results, that will Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets. F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall. Mich.

The Vigorous Methods Pursued in

 New Orleans Special
 Efforts to break up the whitecapping organization in Southern Mississippi, which has waged a war of extermina- tton against the negroes. resulted to- day in sending one man to the peni- tentiary for life, five for fifteen years each and one for twenty-five years.
 Severity had been expected in case of conviction because of the attitudes of Gov. vardaman who instituted the lives for months and spending $2.5oO of the States funds to uncover the crimes of the whitecap league.
 The oaths taken by the men engaged in the business bound them to secrecy and to perjury in event of Grand Jury investigation, and to commit mur- der where persons thought to be unde- sirable were to be put out of the way. The league has been credited with the murder of several negroes. and many left the county under threats.

cense Failed.
 Huntsville, Dec. 22.-(Special )-Al- derman James R. Boyd offered a motion last night at the semi monthly meet ing of the City Council, to increase the saloon license to $500 per annum and the motion was lost by a tie vote of to 4. MT. Boyd showed that Gads- den. Anniston. Decatur and Sheffield collect an annual license of s1.000. while New Decatur gets $500, the Huntsville license being only S250.
 He said that in his opinion the Hunts- ville saloons. enjoying a trade larger than those in any of the towns named. ought to be glad to get off with a tax of $500. The motion failed to carry. and 1t Is not likely that any raise in the license is possible for the year 1905. It Is understood that some of the larger saloons favor the high license in the hope of driving smaller competitors out of business.
