Washington, Sept. 1.—In observ

Columbia, virtually all the wheels
of the Federal Government ceased to

the Senate, where the debate on the
tariff Mil was resumed; and in the
State, War and Navy Departments,
executive office, where the Mexican
situation compelled close wathful-

and while we say she is dead, we I
know she lives again, and in a far j
better clime than ours.
Sister Selph’s life here was beset J
with much Buffering, as she was sick I
almost continuously for 30 years, but I
she never murmured: she was al
ways bright and cheerful in the home
of which she was the light. She had |
that abiding faith and trust in our
Heavenly Father that, like Paul, she
could rejoice In the afflictions of this
life, feeling they would work out for
her a far and exceedingly brighter
crown of glory in the world to come.
Sister Selph was born March 14,
1850. She united w|th Salem Bap
tist Church several years ago, and
remained with us until she was call

where there is no aches nor pains.

This is the advice of Dr. Carlton
Barker, an eminent surgeon of Wash

cases of this intestinal complaint
can be traced directly to gloomy
habits of thought. “Worry and

SECOND CUE
TAKEN IH
VALDOSTA COPS BY BEATING
THE LOCALS AT EVERY STAGE
OF THE GAME-TWO HOMERS
IN THE CONTEST.
Valosta made it two straight in
the Post Season series, by defeating
the Hornets easily Saturday after
noon. Day was in the box and was
apparently in good shape. He, how-
er, was hammered for fourteen
ifeties and in every Inning, except
one. some Valdosta batter got a safe
ty, and. coupled with four bases on
balls, there was no hope for the lo
cals. The Otters out-played, outfleld-
ed and out-hit the locals at all
stages of the game, holding them
safe in pinches and hitting when
hits meant runs.
VatiLandingnam, tapped the second
ball thrown for a homer and
seemed to take the pepper out of the
boys like a flash. They looked like
a different team from the one which
won ten straights and copped the
second half in a gruelling race.
There was not as much spirit and
life, as was shown In the first game
in Valdosta and many and various
have been the comments thereat.
With one on in the seventh, Haw-|
kins also hit for a homer. The j
fieldine of the Valdosta crew was j
great, except in one round, when
Wagnon scored and with a man on
third and second, and none down,
pop flies by Davenport and Champlin
and an easy infield ball by Barnett
ended a great chance to take the
lead from the viators.
Mitch Davenport pulled a bone at
first, falling to take second on a long
fly 'when the throw was made to
third to catch Murch, and then step
ping a couple of feet from first and
let Swartz. who held the ball, throw
him out from short stop This prob
ably Btopped another rally which
might have proven profitable.
The game all around was a great
disappointment to the fans, who con
fidently expected the team to play In
Its usual stride, which is did not do,
by any means. The clilef fault was
the ease with which the visitors hit

] Mr. Uook says that a peculiar thing
Ihe has noticed was that American
; women were not as anxious to leave
Mexico as were their husbands and
lathers. The lure of file climate
seems to have proven stronger than
the fear of being murdered. The
Mexl an climate, he says is the most
wonderful in the world, and cou
pled with the romantic people, has a
fascination hard to resist.
"The great danger to American
residents of Mexico Is not for those
in large cities so much as ill the ru
ral districts,” said Mr. Cook. In
Monterey where there are probably
30.0110 resident Americans, and in
the City of Mexico, where there are
twice that number, they are pre
pared to resist.
“Resides being armed they have
followin ' l,arm * their windows. 3hould the
(worst come, the American colonies
in the larger cities could easily
muster a small, but veritable array
to protect themselves.
“In the rural districts, however,
where there are thousands of Ameri
cans practically helpless, matters
would he different. The mountains
are now bristling with roving bands,
some of them semi-bandits, and but
one flash of a war would start them
on a murderous rampage, which
would equal the days of the Sioux
and Apache.
