WASHINGTON, May 14— Members
of the house appropriations commit-
tee are averse to calling a special
meeting for the purpose of consider-
ing an additional appropriation for the
relief of the people of Martinique.
They say that until it is demonstrated
that the amount of 1208.888 already ap-
propriated. Is not sumelent to meet
the needs of the sufferers, it would be
inadvisable to appropriate an addi-
tional amount in view of the wide-
spread donations and tbe relief work.
workers for the common cause. Lieu-
tenant Governor Bates, the Massachu
setts messenger, paid a tribute to Tex-
ans, and said- that in his visit he was
reminded of the medal which was
struck in Pekin commemorative of
those who braved the siege and which
bore the inscription:
“Walls do not make a city, but
men.” He had been deeply impressed
with the magnificent harvests and
fields and products of this state, but,
above all, the men who made them.
Bishop Hendrix reported as fratern-
al delegate to the British and Irish
conference of 1900. He said the re-
ception accorded him was most cor-
dial.
Paine’s Celery Compound can with
pride point to a long and wonderful
list of cures effected in this and other
lands. In fully ninety cases out of
every hundred it has been successful
in overcoming and banishing treacher-
ous and long standing diseases and
allments.
The great work of disease banish-
ing and life saving so happily accom-
plished by Paine’s Celery Compound
has not yet been confined to any par-
ticular class of people. All ranks and
conditions of our population—amongst
which are found city tollers, hard
working farmer,, business men, capi-
talists, clergymen, lawyer,, physicians
and legislators owe their lives and
present good health to the curing vir-
tues of Paine’s Celery Compound.
No other medicine in the world to-
day has been so much talked of, so
highly recommended by medical men,
so generally Indorsed by our best peo-
ple as Paine’s Celery Compound. It
truly deserves all the good words
spoken in its favor.
May is the great month for recuper-
ating and building up the weakened
and diseased system. At this time
we press upon the ailing, the nervous,
the rheumatic, the neuralgic, the dys-
peptic. old and young, the necessity
of using Paine’s Celery Compound.
To those who are suffering and de-
spondent owing to the rapid progress
of blood troubles, kidney disease and
liver complaint, we My "use the great
health giver at once, if you would be
speedily restored to health." The vir-
lacs peculiar to Paine’s Celery Com-
pound are as potent and true for you
today as they proved powerful and ef-
fective for your friends and neighbors

I what provoked the principal debate,
the commendation of a course at Van-
derbilt University as the desideratum
of all such students as could possibly
attain such course and an annual ap-
propriation of $10,080 for sending stu-
dents to that institution.
The point of chief argument lay In
the college course for prospective min-
l education, looking to plans for Increas-
• ing the efficiency of the ministry.
They urged that the Bible be given
a permanent and prominent place in
the curriculum of Methodist institu-
tions; that educators and pastors be
instructed to urge among men to at-
tend Vanderbilt university, as it is in
close touch with the spirit, traditions
and aspirations of the church; urging
the establishment of a correspondence
school for such as are unable to per-
sonally attend colleges, and also for
those seeking post graduate work, a
nominal charge to be usually made
and in worthy cases free tuition to be
given; that the secretary of this school
shall subject students to examination,

institutes, recommending that when
an applicant shall present a certifi-
cate from any recognized institution
that he has creditably passed in any
study, such certificate shall be ac-
credited to him as final in his candi-
dacy.
Dr. Hammond, secretary of the
board of education; Judge Little, of
Arkansas, and ex-Lieutenant Governor
Hindman discussed the subject, after
which a general discussion was In-
dulged in, the trend of which was the
raising of the standard and the essen-

Since time Immemorial it has been
’ charged that money was the root of
all evil, and the further advanced civ-
ilization becomes the more evident is
the truthfulness of said assertion. No
matter what the crime, you can trace
its conception back to money. The
burglar commits murder by reason of
the fact that he is interferred with
while trying to secure money and val-
cables. The highwayman does like-
wise. Friends fight and kill one an-
other over money. The divorce court
presents innumerable cases where
money plays an important part, and
so in every branch of life. New York
has just presented a most important
case to the public for consideration in
the one where Paul Leicester Ford,
author of “Janice Meredith,” “The
Hon. Peter Stirling” and other suc-
cessful works, was shot by his own
brother, Malcolm Webster Ford, him-
self an author and an athlete of con-
spicuous ability. The tragedy oc-
curred in the library of the novelist’s
house, and the fatal shot was fired
after a brief colloquy between the
men. Almost immediately after his
deed, the assassin turned his revolver
Upon himself and died instantly.
It is only charitable to suppose that
the slayer of his brother was labor-
ing under temporary mental ’ aberra-
tion. but the cause for this, when
. traced, is to be found. In the familiar
evil, money. It is stated, on what

WASHINGTON, May 14.—In the
, civics and international law.
After brief remarks by Senator Dol-
liver of Iow, Senator Hanna spoke,
and his voice trembled with emotion.
He said: "This is indeed a very inter-
esting occasion to me. Its associations
bring up memories. The laying of this
corner-stone, the foundation of this
temple of learning, to be builded by
the public spirited men of my native
state. Is consecrated to the memory of
her dearest son, William McKinley.
Pile up your marble and every stone
will mark an incident in his life of his
devotion to humanity and his fellow-
men. Crown it in the glory of its cap-
tain and he will look down from on
high and bless your noble work. It is
Indeed a noble work. President McKin-
ley was deeply interested in this en-
terprise and it was owing to the in-
spiration of his belief that the people
of Ohio were stirred to make the real-
ization of it to meet his views and his
wishes. That corner-stone has beneath
it a foundation more enduring than
granite—it is Immortality—and that
was the foundation 'of McKinley’s
life.”
Commissioner McFarland, Dr. F. M.
Bristol, who was President McKinley’s
pastor, and Bishop Mallalieu followed
with brief addresses.
The speech-making closed with a
brief address, by Presilent Roosevelt,
who said: “Ladies and Gentlemen: I
am to say but one word. Nothing more
need be said than has been said al-
ready by those who have addressed
you this afternoon—the statesman who
worked with President McKinley, and
the pastor under whose ministrations
he sat.
"It is indeed .appropriate that the
Methodists of America—the men be-
longing to that religious order which
furnished the pioneers who carved out
of the west what is now the heart of
the great American republic—should
found this great university In the city
of Washington and should build the
college that is to teach the science of
government In the name of the great
exponent of good and strong govern-
ment, who died last fall; who died as
true for this country as Abraham Lin-
coln himself. I thank you for having
given me the opportunity to come be-
fore you and to lay the corner-stone
of this building.”
The president _tln. with trowel in
hand, threw in the mortar and the l
stone was lowered slowly Into position.
At some later date it will be raised
sufficiently high to permit of the plac-
ing of a number of relics in the zinc
box within. The doxology and a bene-
diction by the Rev. Dr. H. R. Naylor
of Washington, closed the services.
