STORY OF SEPARATION
CAUSES LOSS OF VOTES
IN a Statement. Methodist Episcopal
Pastor Declares That He Awaited
First Wife's Death Before Marry.
ing.

Baltimore, Md, May 23.-The re.
announced at the general conference
of the Methodist Episcopal church
Friday. Neither ballot produced an
election, but they disclosed significant
changes in the positions of the leaders,
the chief feature of which was the
drop of Rev. Charles l.. Goodell, pas
tor of Calvary Methodist Episcopal
church, New York city, from the fifth
to the tenth position with loss of
1853 votes from the last preceding bal
lot. This was believed to be due to
the publication Of a story that DR..
Goodell was divorced man. DR..
Goodell in a statement attributed his
loss of strength to that fact and also
admitted the truth of the charge
against him.
Awaits His First Wife's Death.
He added that he divorced his wife
on statutory grounds and did not re-
marry until after the death of his first
wife. which he understood had &C.
cured DR.. Goodell's statement fol-
lows:
Il am assured by those who have
led this movement against me that
there is no reflection in it upon my
moral chacater.
The only thing charged against me
is that | am a divorced man. That is
true But the divorce was granted on
the statutory ground recognized by the
Bible and l understood that at the
time of my second marriage my first
wife was dead. For % years l have
had the fullest confidence of the Meth
odist Episcopal church and have filled
her greatest pulpits.
Church Is Large One.
my present church is the largest
Methodist Episcopal church in the
world The bringing of this charge at
the moment when my election to the
episcopacy seemed possible l regard
as a political move which is below the
dignity of the average political con-
vention. The fact that it was brought
at so late a moment that l could not
meet it and that am not member
of the general conference and SO have
no right to the floor will carry it's own
lesson to all right-minded people.
Thinks Charge Is Boomerang.
Il think that in the end it will prove
a boomerang in the camp of those who
have hurled it,
Dr. Goodell who is regarded as one
of the finest platform orators in the
Methodist Episcopal church, and is

in 1886 while in charge of church
there. He asked for and obtained a
church trial, the result of which he
said was vindication of his course

How soon the first fierce rain of death,
In big drops dancing on the trees,
Withers the foliage.-At breath,
Hot as the blast that dried old seas,
The clover falls like drops of blood
From mortal hurts, and stains the sod;
The wheat is clipped but the ripe grain,
Here long ungarnercd shall remain
And many who at the drums long roll
Sprung to the charge and swelled the
cheer,
And set their flags high on the knoll,
Meier knew how went the fight fought
here;
For them a knell tumultuous shells
Shook from the consecrated bells,
AS here they formed that silent rank.
Whose glorious star at twilight sank.
And night. which luls all discords-night,
Which stills the folds and vocal wood,
And, with the touch of finger light,
Outlets the pink-lipped brooks wild mood.
Which sends the wind to seek the latch,
And seals young eyes while mothers
watch
Night stays the battle, but with day
Their lives, themselves. foes hurl away,
Shall be to-morrow's battlefield.
Ere dying died or dead were cold.
New hosts pressed on the lines to hold,
And held them--hold them now in sleep,
While stars and sentinels go around.
And war-worn chargers shrink like sheep
beside their riders on the ground

SEVERE HEMORRHOiDs
Sores, and Itching Eczema-Doetos
Thought an Operation Necessary
-Cuticura's Efficacy Proven.

II am now 80 years old, and three
years ago was taken with an at
tack of piles (hemorrhoids), bleeding
and protruding. The doctor said the
only help for me was to go to
hospital and be operated on. I tried
several remedies for months but did
not get much help. During this time
sores appeared which changed to a
terrible itching eczema. Then I began
to use Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Pills, injecting a quantity of Cuticura
Ointment with Cuticura Suppository
Syringe. It took month of this
treatment to get me in fairly healthy
state and then l treated myself once
a day for three months and, after that,
snce or twice a week. The treatments
tried took lot of money, and it is
fortunate that used Cuticura. ]. T..

fected the various conventions of the
conference of 1899, as follows
Restricting the use of force in the
collection of contract debts; proclaim
ing unanimously the principle of
obligatory arbitration; establishing an
International court of prize and de-
claring in favor of the establishment
of a permanent court of arbitral justice.
These measures are a great and
welcome advance toward the regula-
ton of International relations upon
the basis of justice, reason and re-
spect, for law
Pleased at Many Treaties.
The fourteenth Lake Mohonk con-
ference on international arbitration
notes with pleasure the existence of so
and more treaties of arbitration con-
cluded within the past five years and
more especially the arbitration treat
les concluded between the United
States and France, Great Britain,
Italy, Japan, Mexico, Switzerland, Hol-
land, Norway, Sweden, Portugal and
Spain. The conference therefore eX-
presses the hope that the peaceful
and judicial settlement of interna-
tional difficulties by resort to courts of
arbitration and of justice bids fair
to become the rule of the future as
it has been in a measure the enlight-
ened practice of the immediate past.
School Activity Commended.
The fourteenth Lake Mohonk con-
ference on international arbitration
further commends the activity of our
schools, colleges, universities and the
various professional, business and
labor organizations of the country by
which and through which popular SEN
timent is createtd trained and direct
ed, not merely to the maintenance of
peace, but also by the elimination of
the ostensible causes of war by peace
full settlement, to the prevention of
war itself. Finally, the fourteenth
Lake Mohonk conference on interna-
tional arbitration rejoices in the fact
that the representation of all the
civilized nations of the world in the
second Hague conference and the
recommendation, in it's final act, for a
future conference, guarantee for the
future q conference of an interna-
tional and permanent character cap
able of correcting the inequalities Of
International practice and of enact
| ing code of international law based

Diamond EARRINGS for Poodle,

One of the best known professional
beauties of Paris succeeded in creating
a sensation in the Boulevard Hauss-
man by means of tiny poodle the
other day. This was not due to the
fact that the latter's collar was or
namented with a score of golden coins,
nor to the fur coat with a pocket from
which small lace handkerchief was
visible, nor to the india-rubber shoes
the dog wore, but to two pairs of dia-
mond earrings that glittered. one at
the top and the other at the end of
the pu dies ears.-Chicago Tribune

Gen. sherman, usually 0eSlS-
mated the Army of the Ten
nessee, the Army of the Cumberland
and the Army of the Ohio, wrote Maj
Gen. o. o. Howard. The campaigns
were exceedingly active. From Chat
tanooga to Atlanta Sherman's soldiers
were under fire every day, except the
three just before crossing the Etowah,
for 113 days. There was not a day or
night in which there were no soldiers
slain. The screeching shells burst
over our heads while we were sleep
ing, but wonderful to tell, the SOL
diers had become so used to this con-
f1ict that they lost very little sleep in
firing at night.
In that period of 113 days there were
10 stable battles fought. In one at
tack l made at Pickett's Mill l lost
800 killed and three times as many
wounded within the space of IS min
utes. At night l sat among the
wounded and realized something of
the horrors of war. 1t seems to me to-
day as l think of it like a terrible
nightmare, but it was a more terrible
reality, which will not attempt to de-
scribe.
Without further detail, imagine the
Joy that came over the armies of Sher-
man as they gathered about Raleigh,
N. c., in 1866, and were told that Lee
had surrendered and that Grant had
sent Lees soldiers home to begin life
anew; that Johnston had surrendered
on the same terms as Lee and all that
belonged to Slocum's, Schof1elds and
Towards armies were to march on
the morrow toward Washington, the
capital of the nation, soon to be mus
tered out of service and then to go
home. remember the sudden depres-
sion at the news of Lincoln's death;
but still this going home produced too
great JOY to keep ever this catas-
trophe of their heavy loss very long
before their minds. They marched
habitually at 20 miles a day from
Raleigh to Richmond, and never
seemed weary at the close of any
days march-the camp fire was bright,
the old songs were sung over and over
again and the comradeship knitted
during the war would never cease-it
was at its best when the word peace"
filled all the air
l know that we We're proud when
we marched past the president of the
! United States in our last great re-
view; but, as l remember it, it was a
fearful pride even then. A regiment
had gone out 1000 strong; it had been
recruited and re-recruited; 1t had been
veteranized and added to in other
ways; and now it was bringing home
less than 300 of all the men who had
gone out from that section of the
country from which it had come. The
joy of going home for the 800 was
great, but it was fearful joy the in
