REVIVAL MEETING ON.
Rev. Mr.. Chester To Assist Rev. ].
P. WardIaW.

Revival meetings are in progress at
the Methodist church. Yesterday
meetings were held at o'clock in the
afternoon and at 7:45 at night. These
hours will be observed throughout the
week.
Rev. Mr.. Chester, of Dawson, has
arrived to assist Rev.. J.P. WardIow in
conducting the meetings, which will
probably run over fortnight.
Mr.. Chester has the reputation of
being quite forceful, speaker and
Will assist materially in making the
meeting a success.
1t is probable that there will be no
protracted meeting at the PRESBYTERIAN
church until early in the fall. So far
this spring there have been three series
OF protracted meetings in Americus
and it is likely that with the expira-
ton of the present series there will be
lull until cool weather comes again.

My Best friend.

Alexander Benton, who lives on Ru-
raj Route l, Fort Edward, N. Y, saws;
"Dr. Kings New Discovery is my
best earthly friend. 1t cured me OF
asthma six years ago. 1t has also per
formed wonderful cure of incipient
consumption for my sons wife. The
first bottle ended the terrible cough,
and this accomplished, the other symp-
toms left one by one, until she was
perfectly well. DR.. Kings New Dis
covery's power over coughs and colds
is simply marvellous" No other rem

HELPING THE MILITARY.
A Number of Citizens Making Month.
Iy Contributions.

The income of the Americas Light
Infantry from the dues paid by its mem
bers and monies obtained from other
sources is inadequate to pay its rent
and meet other fixed expenses of the
company.
In order to secure funds for that pur-
pose Capt. Van Ripper yesterday began
the circulation of a paper, the signers
of which agreed to pay fifty cents a
month to assist the company.
Twelve names were appended by six
o'clock. 1t is probable that number
of others will give this small amount
monthly and aid in keeping the COM
pany financially on it's feet.

 Mcdonald jumped into the lead and led for one lap, with Cookson right on his heels. On the second lap Cook son essayed to cut out the pace, and a merry one it was The Englishman maintained the lead the rest of the way, with Mcdonald aoout fifteen or twenty feet away, and try as hard as he could, Mcdonald could not make up the distance. Naumann had no trou- ble in landing third place, but he was never within hailing distance of the leaders. Immediately after the race Manager Nall, in neat little speech, presented Cookson with the beautiful diamond-studded medal, and as Cook son walked gallantly from the floor, with the medal dangling from his sweater, he was cheered to the echo by the thousands present, who readily recognized him as the champion of the world for the distance of one mile.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel
A unique character passed through Mil
waukee recently
To the world which he has been re-
cluse for forty years he Is known as
Lrother Andrew. To the world in which
he lived before he entered the Trappist
monastery a generation ago he is known as
Henry Gillespie.
Brother Andrew was on his way from
Chicago to Tomah, Wis. to visit sister.
For the last forty years he has been IN
unbroken seclusion within the walls OF the
Trappist monastery at Dubuque, Iowa.
This monastery is one OF two such insti-
tu,ions in the country. Because OF the Ill
ness and death of a sister in Chicago
Brother Andrew got a leave of absence OF
Ave days to attend the funeral and visit
relatives.
Upon his entrance once more to the out
side world he put off the garb Of the monk
and donned the same broadcloth suit In
which he applied to the monastery for ad-
mission. 1t was this suit which he had
on while on his way from Chicago to To-
nah.

Whitefish Disappearing.
From the Duluth Herald.

The whtefsh In Lake Superior are de-
creasing yearly. according to fishermen
It is claimed that the dumping Of ashes
and clinkers into the lake has killed off
large areas of the grassy patches on the
bottom of the lake where the whitefish
have fed.
Between 1880 and 1905 the output of
ashes, clinkers and furnace Stag, not count
ing the sweepings of iron from the docks
has been 100000 tons, which was dumped
into Lake Superior Fishermen all over
Lake Superior tell the same story that
large cllukers come up in their gill nets
when hauling in settings indicating that
the bottom of the lake is being covered
with this manufactured scoria, the tendency
of which is to destroy or burn up either by
erpsiye action or by chemical influences all
