You dare not leave these Converts" to

You dare not put your alleged converts
to the test of cutting off their pay.
You dare not send your army of mission
aries and their camp followers less than
tace2aty million dollars gear!
You know that, if you were to lessen the
salaries of the missionary, and his wife and
children, this "consecrated" person would
give up his job.
You know, that if you were to put the mis-
sionaries on the Judson basis, and the Wesley
basis. and the Bible basis, you would lose all
your missionaries
And you know another thing:
If you were to put your pretended Chinese
japanese, and Hindoo 'converts," on the same
footing that Paul and Barnabas put theirs,
you'd lose all your Converts
My lords, you hmoeO I'm telling the truth,
and that can p1'ore 1t.

in your denominational papers.

of India, DR.. Shastri comes to this country
as the official delegate of his people, to the
Worlds Purity Congress, you insult him,
strike his name from the program, and refuse

Because he wanted to tell our people the
truth about this elaborate and rotten system
which has been built up by the Boards, by
the Bishops. by the Editors, in defiance Of
common sense, true patriotism, sane charity,
and the New Testament.

A. A. U. RULES APPROVED.
With One Exception-MaiI Vote Was
Taken on the Adoption.

New York, April with one ex-
ception, the amended general and ath-
letic rules prepared by a special com
mittee appointed at the annual meet
ing of the Amateur Athletic Union last
November have been approved by the
A. A. Z. board of governors. A mail
vote was taken on the adoption of the
rules and Frederick w. Ruben, secre-
tary treasurer of the organization, an
nounced tonight that the vote regis
tered approval of all the rules sub
mitted except the Marathon race rule.
More than two-thirds of the board
of governors voted against this rule
which provided that any competitor
receiving coaching assistance or re-
freshments of any kind during the race
should be disqualified. The rule also
forbade the practice of providing at
tendants for the Marathon runners.
1t was claimed by many of the A
A U. governors that the Marathon
rule proposed although it is now in
force in competitions held by the In
ternational Athletic Federation, in
Guiding the Olympic games, is an in
human provision and that there was
no good reason why the Amateur Ath-
letic union should make such demands
of runners in races in this country.

New York, April 1.-The stock mar

morning to a private bath in the har-
Dor, where he swan for nearly an
hour. When the rain began to fall in
the afternoon he decided to abandon
his exhibition in the open stadium. In
stead he went to the races, where he
was the object of much attention.
Chief Promoter F'razee said tonight
that he would not let Johnson box an
exhibition bout with burly Sam McVey
on Saturday for fear of injury to the
champion on the eve of the battle.
President of Cuba Accepts Seats.
General Mario G. Menocal, president
of Cuba. has accepted a special ring
will watch the fight with his frien is
and cabinet officers. His tickets have
been deliberately engraved. Next to
the presidents box, one has been set
aside for the American minister, and
adjoining boxes will be occupied by the
governor of Havana province, the
mayor of Havana and the commanding
general of the army.
The Cuban congress has decided not
to convene on Monday, as that would
interfere with the desire of the men,
bers to witness the battle. They pre-
fer this to listening to the presidents
speech, which was set for Monday, and,
besides. this accords with the view of
the president himself.
Twenty of the leading stores-the
biggest in the city-will close at 10
o'clock Monday morning to enable the
proprietors and employees to see the
contest.
Work Started on Arena.
The contractors started real work on
the arena at the race track this morn
ing. The first tiers of seats were
made according to Cuban size and
looked odd. A big American could
scarcely squeeze into them. When at
tention was called to this, the con-
tractors explained naively that Cubans
were much smaller than Americans.

very large among the natives.

me to straighten up. Mr.. Henry, one

KiImers Swamp-Root; although I
never had any faith in patent med1-
cines, as a last resort purchased q
dollar bottle of Swarnp-Root. I no
ticed q decided change and after using
two bottles 1 was completely cured.
1t seemed remarkable that I should be
cured so quickly after being i'll SO long.
But since this took place nearly two
years ago, have never been troubled

least give Swamp-Root a trial and
think the results will be the same as
