In the preparation of Whisky, the infusion of rvc or other grain is first
made to undergo fermentation, by which the saccharine matter and indirectly
the stare.1 are converted into Alcohol. In this state the liquid is called the wash
I bis is submitted to distillation, and the product is denominated low wines. Uv
a second distillation it becomes purer and stronger, anti now takes the name of
2 raw spirits or whisky. It is now submitted toa third distilla-
lg|gg| tion in order'Ho still further purify it. This is where our
Whisky is superior. Few whiskies are ever submitted to
the third distillation. By time certain chemical changes
I 1 take place by which the natural impurities contained in the
| I * liquor arc destroyed and the whisky becomes mellow, los-
I 3 ing the disagreeable odor and taste which it is apt to have
I when first distilled. We guarantee Gum Springs Whisky

TWELVE YEARS FOR MARSH.
Former I’renlilmit of ' Wrecked Notional
llltnk licit* l.ont-.Keiititneit,
At 1’hilitdclphin, Tuesday, Gideon
W. Marsh, former president of Iho
Keystone National hank, was sentenc
ed by Judge Hutler, in the United
States district court, to nil imprison
ment of twelve yenrs and three months,
and to pay a line of $500.
Marsh was charged with conspiracy
in making false entries in the books,
and issuing fnlso reports to tho comp
troller of the currency.
It was thought prolmblo that Marsh
might, whoa brought up for sentence,
make a statement implicating others
in the wrecking of tho Imnk, but ho
merely informed tho court thnt his
predecessor in tho presidency of tho
imnk had left a defalcation of over a
million dollars, and that he (Marsh)
had never profited a dollar through
the bank’s lossos.

The joint committee appointed by
the Georgia legislature to investigate
Ur. George F. Payne’s claim to the
stute laboratory reported Tuesday
morning in the house and in the sen
ate. The report makes it appear not
only that Dr. Payne does not own the
laboratory, but that ho took five dray-
loads of the state’s property from the
capitol at night, when officials of the
department had gone, and without
the use of lights in the basement.
The committee finds §1,588 worth of

•‘UNCONSTITUTIONAL,” SAYS VEST.
w"
Missouri Senator lleglitt the Fight Agftftit
Ki|iiin«lot«
A Washington dispatch, says: Tho
tjiacussion of two Questions,'each of
interest and importanoe at this time,
"•as begun Jb^the senate at its session
Moiulajr. , Twritorlal expansion and
the erintiniotion of the Nicaraguan
canal occupied thn attention of the
body during tho grentor pnrt of tho
aftornoou.
Alf soonibs ^ho routine morning hns-
inqps lrtid been disposed of, Mr. Vest,
dthiocrat,• of Missouri, called up his
resolution offered some days ago de
claring it to bo unconstitutional for
this government to acquire foreign
territory except for eonling stations or
some like purpnso, unless its inten
tion was to confer statehood upon tho
territory nml citizenship upon its in
habitants.
Mr. Vest declared thnt it was a bn-
sio principle of tills government that
“tho powera of tho government wero
derived from the oonsont of tho gov
erned,” and mnintainod that tho fed
eral government had no authority,
either in morals or in the constitu
tion, to go beyond thnt principle.
lie held thnt the principle had boon
sustained by tho supreme court in va
rious decisions nml tlint no ptihlio
| mini of prominence nml no recognized
tribunal bad been reckless enough to
controvert ft, until within (liu last nix
months, “when tho craze of expansion
seems to linvo taken possession of the
American people.”
Mr.Vest thought it was tho purpose
of tho cxpnnsionistR to nilopt the
European system of colonization. Ho
pointed out thnt Grent Hritniu had iu
tho mother country 120,070 square
miles of territory, ami iu her colonies
10,007,001 square miles. The dispro
portion of population was about tho
same.
Mr. Vest maintained that tho funda
mental principle of this government
xvas tho granting of citizenship to all
within tho jurisdiction of the govern
ment. lln did not bolievo that any
body would bo roeklesa enough to say
thnt Thomas Jefferson, who penned
Iho words, “all governments dctlvo
their just powers from tho consent of
tho governed,” xvas not nccurute in tho
light of onr constitution.
In tho net of cession of tho territory
of Louisiana from Frnnco to tho
United Slates 1* found a provision
that, the inhabitants, ns noon ns possi
ble, shnll bo inado citizens of Iho
United States nnd tho territory of
Louisiana ho made n state of tho
union. So it xvas, deviated Mr. Vest,
when Florida xvas acquired from Spain,
nml xvhon Alaska xvas obtained from
Russia.
“When, xvhere, how,” ho asked,
“linvo we surrendered file great power
thnt this is n confederation of slates?
I cannot conceive it to bo pcBsihlo to
point out any other form of govern
ment undor the constitution.”
Mr. Vest declared that tho Unitoq
States supreme court had settled that
ijuestiou for all time. Mr. Vest main
tained that the overivhelming argu
ment of the expansionists xvus that
tho constitution applies alone to the
stutes of the union.
COL. 11KYAN RESIGNS.
Nehruskiiti Places IIIn CommliRlon at Dis
posal of Wiir Department.
A Savannah dispatch says: Colonel
William Jenniiigs Bryan 1ms tendered
his resignation us colonel of the Third
Nebraska volunteers. Ho gnvn it to
Brigadier General Warren Keifer Sat
urday afternoon late to he forwarded
to Washington.
Colonel Bryan lold General Keifer
that the signing of the pence declara
tion brought an end to jiis usefulness
in the American urmy nnd lie wished
to si ver his'- connection xvitli it. He
did not signify in his resignation upon
what date he wished to retire, but will
go out ns soon us it is accented and
returned to headquarters.
A Washington special says: All
doubt respecting the intentions of
Colonel Williams ,T. Bryan wero re
moved by the receipt nt tho xvar de
partment of a telegrnm from him stat
ing that he had mniled his resignation
of his commission ns colonel of volun
teers and that it xvus approved by tho
division nnd corps commanders.
Tho xvar depnrtlnewt of course can
not uct upon Die resignation until it
conies formally to hand, hut there can
he no doubt of its acceptance. It is
supposed nt the war department that
the lieiitnnant colonel of Colonel Bry
an's regiment will succeed him in tho
colonelcy.

Tho Buddou change from tho warm

Hiiflcviugs which the deceased had
boni't. •
By direction of Mnjor General Miles

mand of Lieutenant Cox, was ilotuiled
uh a bodyguard for tho remains.
After Genornl (farcin's death stops
xvere taken to notify tho government
officials in Washington nnd also tho
cxcoutivo committee of tho Cuban a--
scmlily, xvliich has its headquarters at
Mnrinuao, Culm.
As hoou as the death became known
a number of visitors, including many
public men, called at the hotel to ex

Foruker, Money, Proctor nnd Chand
