the congregation comfortably the
society resolved to procure mort
eligible site and to erect thereon
the present building, which they i'm
mediately commenced, and are nov
striving to complete as soon as pos
sib1e, that the next session of the
conference, which is to be held In
this town, may be held in this

in June, 1854, and we desire to com
plete tho house by that time.
"The building committee appoint
ed by the official meeting are James
Burns, Samuel Jackson and Festus
c. Pitcher. Bro. Jackson is probably
the, Oldest man engaged in this en-
terprise-if not the Oldest in the So
ciety, and yet is doing fully as much
as any OF us-in contracting for and
procuring materials-in employing
workmen and carefully overlooking
the progress and workmanship OF
those employed.
1.-THE contract for doing the brick
work was let to Francis Phillips,
who is progressing with the work.
The contract for the carpenters and
1oiners work was let to John Wig
gington who is also forwarding his
work. The seats, plastering, paint
Ing, ETC., are not yet let out. 1t Is
estimated that the building-includ-
ing price of the lot $4,000 will be
from $4,000 to $4,000.
"The society numbers about 1S0
members and probationers. The of

EAT LESS AND TAKE
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS

The American men and women
must guard constantly against Kid
ney trouble, because we eat too much
and all our food is rich. Our blood
is filled with uric acid which the kid
neys strive to filter out, they weaken
from overwork, become sluggish; the
|elimfnative tissues clog and the re-
suit is kidney trouble, bladder weak
ness and general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like humps

Obliged to seek relief two or three

with sick headache or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or you have

get from your pharmacist about four
ounces Of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in a glass OF water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This fa-
nous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithfa, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate
clogged Kidneys; to neutralize the
acids in the urine so 1t no longer is a
source OF irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders. N

Not only in membership and fl
nances have the Methodists kept
abreast OF the times, but these two
churches Which are at this time en-
Pertaining the conference, exert n
great Influence upon the morals and
spiritual condition OF the city and VIZ
entity in general.
The pastors of the two churches.

ence convened at $3.50 O'Clock with
Bishop Smith presiding. The sacra-
ment of the Lords Supper was ad-
ministered by Bishop Smith, assist
cd by the district superintendent and
DR., Howard. At the roll call 165
ministers responded TO their names.
1t is estimated that upwards OF three
hundred ministers are here at this
time though some did not arrive in
time to participate in this service.
A profound and fervent prayer was
offered by Bishop Smith in which he
invoked the blessing of the Almighty
on war ridden Europe and prayed
that the dove of peace might soon
hover over the land where desolation
and death now stalks. Bishop Smith
also offered prayer in behalf of the
members Of the conference who have
entered rest since the conference met
last year.
Three members of the conference

Aged Man Dies
From Injuries
BOGUS INSPECTOR TRIED TO Elk.
TORT MONEY-FAILED AND
BEAT VICTIM.

GAINESVILLE, O., Oct. Fixture
of a bogus postoffice inspector to ex'
tort money from Fred G. Albert, 65
an eccentric farmer living alone in
Springfield township, three miles
east of this city on the Albert road
prompted a murderous assault upon
the aged man at his farm early Sun
day evening and his death followed
from the injuries about l O'clock
Monday afternoon, while he was be-
ing brought to this city in the Nader
ambulance. Albert was found near
his home at 1880 Monday after
noon.
Albert was beaten over the head
with Ratchet, corn cutter or SINH
lar instrument. His jaw bone was
broken and his scalp was laid open
and the skull fractured in three
places on the left side towards the
back Of the head. A dep cut was in
flicted over the left forehead and
there was another deep cash on the
right side Of the forehead. Another
cash on the neck several inches long
narrowly missed severing the jugular
vein.
Extortion Carefully Planned.
An attempt to extort money from
Albert by bogus United States post
office inspector furnishes the only
grounds for the murder and is the
only clue on which the authorities
arc working. If this clue proves cor
rect then the crime resulted from
several weeks planning to rob the
aged farmer of his savings.
Albert, several weeks ago, received
letter through the postoffice which
was not correctly addressed. Upon
opening it he found It was not for
him and he promptly returned 1t to
the postoffice.
inspector" Threatens.
A few days later a stranger arrived
at the farm, and represented himself
as postoffice inspector. He threat
ened to arrest Albert for tampering
with the mails, charging he had TAX
en- money from the letter. Later he
returned and again threatened to ar
rest Albert and take him to Cincin-
natl or Marietta for trial before a
United States commissioner. On a
third visit he offered to settle the case
IL Albert would pay him his expense
money. The alleged inspector told
Albert he had already gone his bond
in the commissioners court and had
spent lot of money to save him from
prison. Albert refused to pay over
the money.
Albert's supposed assailant, the
inspector" described as well
dressed man OF about 35 years." is at
large and there is little hope that he
may be apprehended. Bloodhounds
brought from Byesvllle, were unable
to establish a definite clue.
Albert had reported the attempts
at extortion to the postoffice and It
is supposed that the crime was COM
mitted by the impostor to save him
self from arrest.
