Washington, May 12. No recent
dispatch from Manila has been
road with deeper interest at, the war
department than that which was tent
by the Associated Tress via Hun":
Kong. War department officials and
army officers did not care 10 be quoted
upon tho subject, but the comment
generally among army cflk-ers was
that tho troops which had been light
ing so long and continuously are ex
hausted and were really in need i f
rest. It was explained that the m-;n
did not fear fighting, but after light
ing and marching and constant picket
duty the' were no doubt much ex
hausted. Some army ollicers suggest-ju
that the action of trie Nebraska regi
ment was like a town meeting and
that the army could not bo conducted
upon such lines. Comment was made
to tho effect that the diepatches indi
cated that the various regiments were
on duty constantly and that there was
no reserve to relieve thera when they
reached the limit of endurance.
It was stated by an oilicor in the de
partment that one reason why it had
been iinnossiblo to relievo the volun
toers with the regulars now at Manila
was because the regit' ars recently sent
to tho Philippines were at least two
thirds recruits and were necessarily
untrained and lacked the discipline of
the volunteers, who are now veterans.
It is believed that General Otis dees
not cave to risk hard lighting tt) un
tried men that ho desires the volun
teers to remain at tho front because he
is sure of them in any emergency.

Several days ago a committee was ap
pointed from the Methodist church to
go to Omaha ar.tl consult with the
architect who drew up the plans and
specifications of the new church and
suggest some changes in the same. K.
B. Windham, S. A. Davis and Wash
Smith composed the committee, but
the latter centleman did not go,. Judge
Spurlock acting in his stead. They
went to Omaha this morning and it is
expected that plans will bo perfected
today and that the work will bo started
on the new structure iminediatel
'T. Ii." Social a Success.
The initial effort of the "T. IV' club
to give a social was crowned with suc
cess. The social was given at the
home of Miss (lone Marshall Friday
evening and tho sum of 1( was
cleared. The object of the club is to
raise funds to assist in building the
Methodist church, and the young la
dies are very much encouraged by the
success of the first effort. A large
crowd was in attendance, and beside
tho good resulting a most pleasant
evening was spent.
Miss Maggie Oliver returned to her
home in Omaha Saturday evening
after a three days' visit in this city with
her sisters, Mrs. Charles Ends and Mrs.
D. C. Morgan. Her little nieces, Fay
and Fern Knda and Gertrude Morgan,
accompanied her to spend Sunday.

GLEANINGS.
t"i-iIH Ni!iv Yoi k Churchman has
Ji this to say t f the free church
hie i :
' If it Inevitably results in tho view
that churches are mere passive re
ecpt'icIeK, t.) be always receiving and
never giving, then, indeed, it is a dis-;i.-tt-oifi
theory. I tut if this in only
. ; of the efforts to make the Father's
house at least as free as the homo nf
an earthly father is to his children,
then, indeed, it is the only possible
conception of the chinch as tht) home
of humanity. For, whatever may be
s iid of the rented pew as a necessary
evil, hecau-e ef present conditions, it
can never be advocated as an ideal
for the very rea-on that a father is no
father and a homo is no homo where
one child is allowed to purchase a
place above another. Hut passing by
all the-e things and returning to what
we believe to be the true heart of tho
matter and the real value of tho dis-
Mission, Oie most serious question bo
fore the church today is not the ade
quate Mjppirl of the ministry, but
systematic and proport i na to gi vi ng
that our Christi inity may be real."'
"There are two sorts of men who
today are gravely impeding Chris
tianity, and it is not oasy tt) say which
of the two is moit blameworthy," says
a ll.iptist paper (Tho Watchman) pub
lished in Huston. "On the one hand,
those who assume that tho ethical
teachings of Jesus are so unadapted to
human life that they are to be treated
as the amiable and beautiful imagin
ings of a lofty soirit, but as wholly
unfitted to control tho conduct of
hard-hoarii'ii men. They listen to the)
Serpen on the Mount in much the
same mood as that in which they read
"The Midsummer Night's Dream.'
Thootli .u- sort of men interpret tho
Sermon on the. Mount and the other
ethical statements of .Jesus with a
hard liberalism and an utter absence
of the .-ease of proportion :md with
total unwillingness to modify one
teaching by another which is mani
festly do-ignateil to limit and modify
it. These men will fasten on a single
text and refuse to look at any other
text. They will give their single
text thti most, me chan ical a ml unsym
pathetic interpret ntiou ami then pro
ceil to denounce as d iloy:tl te Christ
everyone who does nrt accept their
interpret at ion. Tolstoi is the most
conspiclous representative) of this
'las, but those who belong to it aro
to be found in every community ill
most in every church. And so it
comes about that the) average man,
having to ciicpse liotwecn a Christ
that was a mere dreamer and a Christ
t h tt was a fanatic, repudiates both."
PRESENTED WITH A SILK FLAG.

The occasion of tht; presenting of a
beautiful siik Hag to the T. J. Sokol

Fry, who tiled the complaint, could not

whereby the latte' company becomes
the owner of tho building at the cor

(ieorgo K. Arms, the victim of tho
shocking accident at Pacific .function
died at tho Perkins house at S o'clock
last evening. Drs. Livingston and Cook
and Dr. Bacon of Pacific Junction
waited upon him, but were confident
from the lirst that ho could not with
stand the ordeal of having tho limb
amputated, anil only attempted to til
lay tho pain. However, ho didn't ap
pear to sull'er any pain and was not
heard to utter a word of complaint.
Ifo displayed remarkable nerve and
vitality. After his death the body
was removed to the undertaking
rooms of Streight it Streight and the
body was embalmed tind prepared for
shipment to SprinirOeld. Vt. , his old
home.
Tho unfortunate young man re
uiained conscious to the last, talking
of his condition to those about him.
He was aware of tho severity of the
injury and remarked that he did not
believe ho could recover. Kev. Bur
gess was called at Arms' inquest and
in conversation with Mr. Burgess ex
pressed his faith in Cod by saying ho
was not afraid to die.
Tho injured man related to Yard
master Manchester the facts relating
to tho accident. The engine was be
ing taken out of the round bem-e pre
paratory to going out on piisenger Xo.
11, and in company with a switchman
Arms was riding on the pilot of the
engine. Ifo stepped oil' to throw a
switch ami in attempting to step back
on the cow catcher of the engine ho
missed his footing and fell under Oil
engine. J ho engine was moving very
slowly, but before tho engineer could
stop tho wheels bad passed fiver bis
right leg, mangling that member in a
horrible manner. When we was re
leased he raised up and looked at the
leg and requesteel that ho be brought
tt Piattsmouth as quickly as possible,
that it might bo amputated.
Dr. Way of Wahoo. a classmate of
tho young man in Vermont, who Knew
his family well, upon receiving notice
of tho accident, immediately started
for this city, but tlitl not reach here
until after his death. In conversation
with a Nkws reporter Dr. Way stated
that the young man b ro a most ex
cellent character, being well educated,
of exemplary habits and j ivial dis
position. Ho was a Christian and had
been an earnest church worker in
Hastings. He leaves a widowed
mother, a brother and a sister.
Ho is tho son of Major fl. M Arms,
who precedeel him to tho other world
throe years ago. Major Arms was a
man of high staneling politically, so
cially and otherwise. He was tin im
porter of thoroughbred c ittle and was
a member of tho Vermont world's fa'r
commission.
Arms wtis engaged to Miss 1-IJith
Ilazelett of Hastings and tho date of
the wedding is understood to have
been set for the near future. She sent
a box of flowers this morning te ac
compiny the remains and slio is said
tt be almost heart broken over the
sad ending of her lover. The unfor
tunate man carried $4,0 0 insurance,
but it was not learned in whose favor
it was made.
The young man's associates are
deeply grieved and altogether it i
ono of the most deplorable accidents
this paper has ever beon called upjn
to chronicle.
The body will bo shipped on No. 12
this evening and will be accompanied
by a young m in from Lincoln named
Walsh.
AN EARLY MORNING HAIL STORtt.
I'lit! turnout It Visitrtl I'.y h Short,
vere Hail Storm.
Uut Se-
At 0 o'clock Sunday morning when
the people of Plattemouth wer.3 taking
their Sunday morning slumbers theyr
were awakenetl by the sound ef hail
pounding on the roofs of their houses.
The hail only lasted about llfteen min
utes, but while it did come down it was
as severe as ever visited this part of
the country. There were largo chunks
of ice about the sizo that the dealer
puts in your ice box in July but
fortunateli' there was no wind to drive
the hail stones. If a strong wind had
been blowing the damage to skylights
and windows would have been enor
mous, not taking into consideration
the damage to fruit. A great many
blossoms were knocked from tho trees,
but there are jet plenty on, and some
fruit men contend that it will be of
boiiehT to tho fruit crop. The damage
to garden truck is only slight.
L. A Moore, the florist, probably
sustained tho greatest loss, the hail
breaking a number of glasses in his
green house and beating flower plants,
which were growing outside, into tho
ground. His loss wiil reach fuliy $75.
The hail knocked a hole in the roof of
Attorney A. Bceson's house and al
lowed the water to run into tho house
in torrents. This is about the extent
of the damage, with tho exception cf
an occasional window glass. The path
of tho storm seems to have been a nar
row one, as other sections have made
no report of a hail storm.

Eczema which in more than akin-deep, and rati not be reacbutl by local appli
cations of ointment, unlvcB, etc., applied to th niirfucit. Th dineao iUelf,
the real cause f the trouble, ia in the blood, although all mifTering In produced,
through the tkin ; tho only way to reach the disease, therefore, in through
the blood.
Mr. I'hil T. Jonrw, of Mixcrsville, I rid . , writes:
"I had Kozema thirty years, and after a great deal
of treatment my leg was so raw and sore that it pave me
constant pain. It finally broke into running Kore, and
began tt) Hpread and grow worm'. For th past five or
Bix years 1 have suffered untold agony anil had given up
all hopo of ever being free from the diseiise, as I Iihvo
been treated by some of the best phyHieianK itni? have
taken inuny blood medicines, all in vain. With little
faith left I begun to take S. H. S., and it apparently
nmde the Eczema worse, but I knew that this wan thn
way the remedy got rid of the poimtn. Continuing
8. S. S., the sore healed up entirely, the tkin beeiune
clear and smooth, anil 1 was cured perfectly."
Eczema ia an obstinate, disease and can not be cured by a remedy which it
only a tonic. Swift's Specific
S. G- S. FOR THE BLOOD
is superior to other blood remedies because it cures discuses which thy oan
not reach. It goes tt) the bottom to the cause of th i disease and will euro
the worst case of Eczema, lit) matter what other treatment 1ms failed. It is
the only blood remedy guaranteed to be free from pottinh, mercury or any
other mineral, and never fails to cure Ecxemn, Scrofula, Contagious Hlood
Poison, Cancer, Tetter, Rheumatism, Open Sores, Ulcers, JloiN, etc. Insist
upon S. S. S. ; nothing can take its place.
