Most progressive ministers In eery de

their people the great remedy that makes
people well, earnestly Indorsing the woik
ot Dartmouth college's generous scientist,
and frankly lending their Influence to that
ot the best physicians advising generally
the use of Value's celery compound now
that the "danger season of spring" Is near.
The proptletors' of this best of remedies
now furnish a great quantity of testimon
ials from clergsmen In every state, and al
most every city and town In the country,
from which the following are taken at
random:
Itei, Charles C. Bruce.
From Somervllle, Mass., Boston's wealthy
ruburb, Charles Cromber Uruce, one of the
ablest joung pastors In the state, writes:
"I am nearly OS scars oC age and weigh
normally 158 pounds, at piosent my weight
Is HSiJ. My sickness took mo down to
ISI'.J. so that you can see that I am getting
back to myself, and, God willing, shall
toon bo theie.
"I have been a very sick man, but owing
to the goodness ot the supreme powers I
am now on the royal road whoso end Is
perfect health.
"After twenty years of excessive labor
In studying and preaching, I was elected
lo a position In a high school In Boston,
but the work told on me and 1 grew 111.
The Illness lasted for about a year and a
half. But now 1 am so that I can see the
nd, and n more thankful man sou never
(aw. A gentleman who lived near me be
gan tho use of 1'alno's celery oolnpound
and It built him up. I thought of this and
soon I was led to use It, and It has brought
ma out all right."
M. Theresa's Academy.
Mother Theresa, wilting from St. Ther
esa's academy, nenr Peoria, Jll says that
they have given Palne's celery compound a
thorough trial and found It to be all that
Is claimed for it. She adds: "Wo shall
ontlnue its use and also recommend It to
our friends."
Kev. T. r. NtaufTor.
The following testimonial from a man so
w Idely known and beloved us Bev. T. r.
StaufTer, pastor of tho r.ilth rtefoimed
church, of Lincoln, Neb., Is a most positive
proof ot tho wonderful medicinal power ot
Palne's celery compound and Its great supe
rlorlty over ordinary b.arsnparlllas, tonics
and nervines,
'Tor nearly a year past I have felt my
self tunning down. .My nervous system
was gradually growing worse; I had slight
symptoms of rheumatism, and was uoubled
a good deal ut times with Insomnia. I felt
that something must bo done, and conclud
ed to use Palne'H celery compound. After
tnc llrst few days' use I began to Impiove,
and I am very much better now. Indeed,
I feel like myself once more, All symp
toms of rheumatism are disappearing, I
can sleep well, my nervous sjsiem Is rap
Idly Impiovlng, and I bellovo u radical euro
is being effected. I'alne's celery compound
Is a splendid remedy, and I can conscien
tiously commend It to the sulterlng In llku
rases. I further believe that If this medi
cine were taken In time It would save many
heavy doctors' bills. I have never used a
remedy of any kind thut met Its promises
so well and so leadlly."
Uditnr nf the Ccorgln Baptist,
Hev. W. J. White, D. D editor or tho
Georgia Baptist, says: "My wife wan In
poor health. I think It n sott of general
debility, which caused severe attacks of
hcait palpitation, She was favorably Im
pressed with Palne's celery compound nnd
procured It at once. She felt benefited from
the first bottle, and I see a decided Im
provement, wldch is gratifying. Wo have
spoken of thla medlelno to several friends,
and several have already used It upon our
recommendation."
Itertor nf t-t. AiuuiV, Nashville.
Bev. T, V. Mai tin, rector of St. Anne's
church, nt Nashville, gives his people con
fidence in tho great; curative powers of
Palne's celery compound. He says:
"During the Lenten Beason last 5 ear,
which, on account of multiplied services, is
veiy trying nnd laborious to a clergyman, I
became so run down Dint I feared I would
not be able to hold out to the end. Having
seen accounts of tho elllcacy of Palno's eel
ery compound In similar cases. J concluded
to try It. I was soon delighted to find that
It gave mo new vigor, and by the use of
one bottle I was enabled to get thiough
the most laborious part of tho season. In
cluding Holy week and HnatenUy, with
ease and comfort, f utti lliute my relief to
Palne's celerv compound. I keep a hottlu
of It on hand and whenever I have a re.
turn or the feeling of exhaustion from un.
usual labor, I take a few doses, always
with a pleasant sensation of relief,"
The Upper limn Conference.
Among the many very able ministers In
tho Upper Iowa conference nono Is better
beloved by his church than Itev. B. r.
Berry. Bead of the great good that I'alne's
celery compound did him,
"Tor three years I have suffered from In
illgesjon, constipation and biliousness. I
have taken three bottles of Palne's celery
compound and find myself wonderfully
helped. I feel rested now mornings, and no
longer have any tired unci stuold feelings.
Therefore. I take reat delight In recom
mending Palne's celery compound to all
suffering from these disorders."
The Venerable William A, Kuilth.
Bev. William A. Hmlth. of Orotin. Conn.,
after years of woik, U stilt well und active.
He writes:
"In my early dayj, by gret and pro

"Palne's celery compound Is the best
medicine tn be found, nnd t very cheerfully
recommend It to nil who am In n run-down
or exhausted condition, I have twice used
It with most satisfactory results, for live
enrs my work has been vcrv heavy, es
pcclnlly so during the last two years. My
rnnvlctlon was that unless I found some
thing to heli mo I must give up my work
as n minister, but I took 1'nlnon celery
compound, 11111I last year came out nil right,
without a vacation nf so much ns one Sun

"It qlves me gicat pleasure to add my
testimony to the effect of Palne's celery
compound. I'or eight c.us I have Buffered
gient pain in my back. Last Apill I wni
so weak and nervous that I ariangcd to go
to Montreal for treatment, but thlce days
befoie I expected to go n filcnil or inino
urged me to tnke I'alne's celeiy compound.
I went, that day nnd bought 11 bottle and
commenced tn take It, and before I had
taken tho first bottle I was free from pain
In mv luck and could sleep sound, and am
able to nrench eveiy Sunday.
"I will gladly answer un one who may

Bev Dr. J. V. Hull, or Mountvllle, Is
one ot the best-known ministers in South
eastern Ohio. Mrs. Hall, whose life was
despaired ot, was restored to health by
I'alne's celerv comnound. She writes:
"The grip made a wreck of my natural
good health. I suffered from continual
headache, which nothing relieved, und from
nervousness which prevented sleep and
caused me to have palpitation of the heart
when startled by nny unexpected noise or
sound. I had distressing pains in my
back and side, was constipated, bilious
nnd sallow-complexloned. My pulse was
veiy changeable, sometimes quick and at
others scarcely perceptible, appetite poor,
with a feeling ot languor and weakness
at times almost oveicomlnc me. It seemed
as If every organ In my body was diseased,
and I was In desp ilr of ever being well
again. At times the grave seemed very
near. 1 can never describe my terrible
sufferings, and It would have been .1 great
relief to have exchanged worlds, but like
every mother I would look upon my baby
bov nnd cling to life. -
"Xot having much faith In advertised
medicines, It was with reluctance that I
began to use Palne's celery compound,
but after the first dose I slept well Mv
Improvement was rapid. I took -six bottles
and gained between twenty and twenty
live pounds In weight, and now I am fleshy,
ruddy cheeked nnd clear complexloned,
the wonder of nil my friends. I do my
own work and assist my husbind In his
labors as a minister of the llospel. I al
ways tell the sick and suffering what this
grand compound has done tor me."
For All Sufferers.
Bev. Percy T. Penn, rector of St. John's
at Boonton, X. J., writes:
"It gives me gieat pleasure to commend
the uso nf Table's celery compound to nil
those who are suffering from nervous
tioublei, I had suffeied for two je.us
with nervous prostration, brought on by
overwoik and excessive study, and during
this time had tried almost everything in
the way of medicine, besides being treated
by an eminent specialist In neivnus dis
eases, but nothing helped me until I used
Palne's celery compound. This rempdv
has been of great benefit to me. and I
shall always recommend It to all sufferers "
The fact Is, I'alne's celeiy compound
mikes people well. Try It and bo con

IflHIHC.
The house this morning received a vast
number of petitions asking that additional
room be furnished to the State Historical
Soclets-.
Under tho hfnil of icsolutlons, Mr. Shca
for Introduced the following:
"Whereas, There exists In Kansas .1
widespread dissatisfaction at the present
manner of ussosngijjioperis: and
"Whereas, Any crTange In the present
system of assessment and taxation to be
satlsructory and or permanent value to Un
people will rtciulie .1 complete revision or
our laws relating thereto and an examina
tion and compailson of the laws of other
states, and
"Whereas, The time remaining of the
present session Is too short for a pioper In
vestigation and consideration of assess
ment nnd taxation, therefore, be It
"Itesolved by the houso of representa
tives, thu senate concurring therein, That
a committee of three from tho senato and
live riom the house be appointed by the
lieutenant governor nnd speaker, to ex
amine the laws of other states and report
a svsteni of assessment and taxation law si
said committee to sit after the adjourn
ment of the leglslatuie, with power to se
lect a stenographer; the memlieis of said
committee and said stenographer to re
ceive as compensation the sum or $3 per
day for tho time actually employed, and
to report to tho special session In 1S5G."
Mr. Lambert, of Ls'on, moved to re.
commit the bill, limiting the number or
special questions that can be asked by
either party in tho trlnl of a civil action,
back to the committee of tho whole for
further discussion. This bill provides, as
It passed the committee, that nut over
tweiity-tlvo special questions can bu asked
by either party to the suit. .Mr. Lambert
said this bill was changing the practice or
the coin ts which had pi evaded for a third
or a century, and he thought tho commit
tee hud acted without duo consideration.
Mr. Lambert's motion was supported by
Bone or Clark, and Cole or Barton. It was
opposed by -Moore or Saline, Cox or Neo
sho nnd Caldwell of Douglas Tin house
evidently llgutlng that the gentlemen who
'wero talking In favor of recommitment
wero generally railroad nttornej-s, refused
to recommit thn bill.
Among tho hills Introduced this morning
were:
Ono by Brown, of Crawford, which
piovldes for closing the offices of county
clerks and county treasurers at certain
periods of the vear,

The fees und salaries bill was tho occa
sion of some little commotion this morning
When the bill was reported fo the commit
tee or the whole It provided that It should
not go Into operation untl Junuary 1, lS'Jd.
The committee, however, changed this so
that It should gu Into operation ns soon
as published In the otllclnl statu paper.
The provisions or the bill raise tho sal
aries of olllcluls In tho small counties and
also In the very lirga counties. Naturully
the olllclnls In these counties wanted to
receive the blessings to be bestowed as
soon as possible. On the other hand, the
bill mukes a serious cut In salaries In the
middle sized counties, and the members
from these counties wanted to put off the
evil day as long- as possible Caldwell, of
Douglas, .Miller, of Morris, and Balllnger.
tho author of the bill, tried to gtt the
bill recommitted to the committee ot the
whole, in order 10 gttb original pro

but the cnmmlltei wai as firm a. it was

SHOT WITH wnti:.
The strnngesf Mirglcul Case fiver seen In
11 e York Hospital.
From the New York Becorder
The strangest thing that has come to
light In the Bellevuo hospital since the
finding, a few years ago, of a "el of falie
teeth Imbedded In the heart of .1 woman
who had dlad suddenly, was revealed last
Mondas In nn operation on John Sc.inlon,
of ."? Avenue A.
Scanlon is a machinist. "0 se.us old. In
the emplos of the Hast Bivor Lead Coin
pans', whose works lire nt Fist Nineteenth
street I'm II Saturday he lias had charge
of the machine that makes the wire.
The machine is a steel box. from which
molten metal Is forced thiough an apci
ture or die one-slxtccnth of .111 Inch In dl
amtlei by hydi.iullc pressure of i') tops.
The stream of lend before It reaches Hie
nlr, hardens Into a long, thin wire, which
Is nfternurd wound upon n wheel. At times
the epcrture bei omes clogged and the
stream of lead stops. When this happens
the attendant seizes the wiie In his hands
and sets It going again by a sharp pull.
Scanlon was at work Saturday morning
nnd the machine clogged, the reel went on
turning and broke the wire 01T about ten
Inches rrom the die Scanlon reached over
as usual, caught hold or the wire and gave
It a smart pull. All at once there was .111
explosion in the metal receptacle The
whole machine was enveloped In steam
and Scanlon was knocked senseless. When
he regained consciousness he was In an
ambulance on his wn to Bellevuo The
man's arm. which gave him some pain,
was examined b the doctors, who .s ucl
that his elbow was out or joint. Theie
was a little cut about two Inches long ex
tending across Hie arm about three Inclu
above the wrist, but, under the circum
stances, no .mention was paid to it
The usual practice for putting the elbow
banes back Into place w.is resorted to. bur
the piln in the arm cli I not cease. Suncj.is
morning a more thorough examination was
made, and what was thought to be bits nf
broken bono could be f. It above tho Joints.
It was then decided that Scanlon bad a
compound fracture of tin, upper part of the
bones of the roicarm. and a time was set
for an operation Monday morning.
Scanlon was put under thn Influence nf
ether. Dr. Bathbone, assisted by the house
staff, started the operation. The knife with
which the suigeon began to cut away the
flesh that covered the bones had h irdly
penetrated the skin when It struck against
a foreign body th.it the surgeon's delicate
touch detected to he metal.
Fpon further curling, eleven foet, or,
more exactly, 131 Inches, or lead wire was
brought out. The wiie was coiled and
tangled together and broken Into mans
pieces Part of It was lodged between the
two bones or the rorearm. but most was
Imbedded in tho big muscle there and In
small bits about tho elbow Joint. Scanlon'n
arm was evidently bent when the accident
occurred, nnd tho elbow Joint stopped the
wire which had shot out or the machine
under thu rorto of the explosion und pene
trated the arm where the little cut n.is
round, going on by Its own momentum. The
man Is doing well.

The Philosophy and llsglenlrs or Hie Fit
vurlro WlntiT .sport,
Considerable! tluio and Ingenuity novo
been expended recently In tho efforts to
produce a form ot .sltuto which will com
blnn lightness and convenience ot arrange
ment with gieut speed. Tho scientific
principle Involved in this work Is far more
complex than Is generally supposed, nnd,
as outlined by tha Scientific) American,
makes a very Interesting study Speed In
skating Is, of course, attained by thu prop
er application of every particle of motive
power When the skater strikes uut with
his foot ho does not, however, as Is gener
ally supposed, obtain momentum from the
broidsldo pressuio of tho tkuto on tho Ice.
Tho momentum Is gained by 11 gradual
and tnperlns pressure which commences
ut tho head nt tho skate, sluco It Is hero
that the Ireshest and strongest force la up
piled. It will bu seen that tlm momentum
Is Increased, tllvreluiv, by thu pressuru
exerted steadily and firmly outward rrom
tho heel or the skuto to the e.xtremo toe,
Tho pioper way to attain great speed U
to strike out each root as close to the
other its possible, to continue) the stroke
up to the tnc-, and when unco tho extreme
motive power is passed to get tho other
toot in position as quickly ns possible.
The prlmu tactors In producing speed. It
wilt be seen, aio tho full pressuru on tho
leo and tho rapid movement or tho legs.
Working upon this theory, a long, heavy
skuto has been manufactured, with a
blade which extends soveral Inches besond
the foothold
