It* chapter* are fonnd inscribed on mammy cases or written on rolls of papyrus within them. The book re¬ counts the supposed experience of tho son) after death, its passage across the land of darkness in the blessed fields, to its final judgment and admission into tho presence of its Father in “eternal dwelling place of the cleansed spirit. ” The following pas¬ sage from one of these mummy cases recently exhumed shows its express declaration of a future life. “Tho osiris (soul) lives after death. Every god rejoices with life. Tho osiris re¬ joices as tho gods rejoice.” It is sup¬ posed the “Book of tho Dead” origin¬ ated with Egyptians between 2,000 and 8,000 years boforo Christ. A mummy case from tho great pyramid, inscribed 1,700 yea before tlio timo of Jesus, has the following inscription: “O (lod, the protector of him who cries to thee, ho is thine. Let him have no harm. Let him be as ono of thy flying servants. Thou art he; ho is thou. Make it well for him in tho land of spirits .”—Home Magazine, Hon’t Trout on .Me, Vibrates the rattle snake with his rattle.

The national labor commission, iu session at Chicago, expects to complete its work by the end of tho week and will then report to the president. Eli Whitney, of New Haven, Conn., a grandson of tho famous inventor of tho cotton gin, has invented a machine which may revolutionize cotton pick¬ ing. The big strike of the miners at Spring Valley, Ill., has ended by an agreement between tho coal company and the strikers ns to terms. Tho men will resume work at once. Ex-Vico President Levi F. Morton has issued a statement which says that his candidacy for tho gubernatorial nomination for New York stato is in the bauds of the delegates to tho con¬ vention. A dispatcli received in London Sun¬ day from Shanghai states that an im¬ perial decree has been issued in Pekin, ordering a forced loan. It calls upon four nativo banks to loan the govern¬ ment, if possible, 10,000,000 taels. Tho Parisnn royalists are greatly alarmed at tho reports of the condition of tho count of Paris, and are sending messages of sympathy to Stowe house ami offering up prayorB for the recov¬ ery of the head of tho house of Bour¬ bon. After making a thorough invostiga-, tion of tho conditions existing among the employes of the Pullman company who participated in tho recent boycott and strike, Governor Altgeld Las is¬ sued an appeal to the people of Illinois or relief. Russia will sond to east Asiatic wa¬ ters the warships, Emperor Nicholas 1, armor-clad, 8,000 tons, twenty-four guns; nnd tho Pamint Azova, armor clad, 6,000 tons, thirty-three guns. Both are comparatively new and are reckoned among tho powerful vessels of tho Russian navy. A London cablo dispatch says: Tho bark Venerata (Norwegian), Captain Person, from Savannah, July 25th for London, was sunk on August 25th by a collision with tho British steamer, Nor ham Castle. Tho Nor ham Castlo was not injured. Tho crew of the Venerata wore saved and have arrived at Madeira. The strike situation at New Bedford, Mass., remains practically unchanged and littlo excitement attended the opening of tho Bennett and Columbia mills Wednesday morning. The oper¬ atives have a more hopeful feeling since the managers of tho Bennett and Columbia mills have given in to their demands. Smoko from burning forest fires was so dense at Isbpeming, Mich., Satur¬ day that it became ueccssaty to turn on electric lights during tho day. There are no very largo fires nearer than Outaguon county, but thousands of small ones are filling the air with denso smoke. Farmers are losing crops and rain is very badly needed. Thous¬ ands of square miles of tho upper peninsular arc covered ■with denso smoke. The Shanghai correspondent of the Central News says: Thero is an un easy feeling in Tien-Tsin, owing to tho attitude of tho nativo troops. Foreigners aro arming themselves as they fear an attack. Tho French war ship Lion, the German Wolf, tho Brit¬ ish Linnet, tho American Monocacca and the Russian Sivootch have been sent by their governments to Tien-Tsin to protect tho foreign residents iu case of need. City Health Commissioner Ivempster, of Milwaukee, has formnlly asked tho state board of health to take control of tho smallpox epidemic in the city. State troops will not be sent to Mil¬ waukee to quarantine the city or any part of it, nor will the state board of health take charge for the present at least. This is the result of advice given the city authorities and the state board by Governor Peck. Governor Peck insists that the local authorities should do their full duty. The Connellsville, Pa .,Courier says: “Coko production showed a decided gain last week over the production of the previous week. There was an in¬ crease of nearly 14,000 tons. The de¬ tailed report of the operation and out¬ put of the region for the w*eek ending on Saturday, August 25th, shows 12,- 703 active, and 4,811 idle ovens, with a total estimated production of 121, 065 tons. The shipments for the week aggregate 6,321 cars. Compared with the shipments of the previous week this was a net increase of 360. A dispatch to The London Standard from Vienna says that there wero 200 new cases of cholera and ninety-five deaths in Galicia Friday and fourteen cases and ten deaths in Bukowina. A correspondent at Vienna says that cholera is reported to be raging terri ribly in Russian Poland. Stopniea, Mieebew, Dziatiozyce and Pinezow are the chief centers of the disease. The inhabitants are camping in the woods. They refuse to obey medical orders ind conceal their sick from the doc¬ tors, treating them in their own way. TO MORTGAGFfHITSOUTIIERN.

Whole Families Drowned and Town* Completely Annihilated. A terriblo catastrophe befell tho day thriving town of Uvalde, Texas, Thurs night and there is mourning in many households. The calamity was Leona entirely unexpected. Tho treacherous river, swollen to a raging tor rent by recent rains, rushed without a moment’s naming .town upon tbo town, submerging and wrecking many houses and drowning a number of peo pie. In this arid section suchdestruc tiveness by the elements has never be fore been chronicled. In the excitement it is not definitely known how many have been drowned, It was about 2 o’clock in the morn¬ ing when the flood came. Just aa the storm broke over the city a terriblo torrent of water rushed down the Leona river, overflowing the banks of that stream and flooding the lowlands on either sido to a depth of several feet. The east side of the city is built on lowland and was directly in tho path of the water. All the houses iu this part of the town wero submerged. There wero a number of miraculous es¬ capes and the rescuers and the rescued performed many heroic acts. An earthquake shock of some mo meuts’ duration was distinctly felt during tho night. At ono place near the city about a quarter of a mile of heavy cracks appeared on each side of the Leona river, having apparently no bottom. . The loss to tho Southern Pacific Railroad Company is enormous, forty miles of track nnd many bridges hav¬ ing been washed away. A rough esti¬ mate of the loss to property in general and Uie railroad company will, as far as known, reach a million and a half dollars. A Later Account. Another and later account says that the deluge did not come from the clouds, as was at first supposed, but that it came out of the ground and its bursting forth was caused by an earth¬ quake which rent tho earth at several places along the Leona river, near Uvalde. The cracks in the earth with the water pouring therefrom are still visible. The Leona river, so-called, is a dry stream ten months of the year, but it is known that a subterranean basin and stream of water exists under¬ neath the dry bed, as flowing artesian wells are obtained by boring a few hundred feet. It is supposed that this artesian basin of water is now escaping through tho cracks caused by tho earthquake. The shock of tho earthquake was distinctly felt at Uvaf do and at points for many miles around. THE FLOODED DISTRICT. A special from San Antonio says: The sceno of destruction and desola¬ tion in the flooded district for a dis¬ tance of 100 miles west from hero and extending south from the Southern Tacific railway to the Rio Grande 200 miles away, is simply terrible. Thous¬ ands of acres of pasture and farm land is under water. It is estimated that the damage to crops in tho valley of the Leona river will reach $500,000, while in the val¬ leys of the Saco and Sabine rivers tho losses will be fully as much or more. Many thousands of cattle, horses and sheep were swept away. Up to Friday night all telegrams received by South¬ ern Pacific railway officials and for tho press came by tho rouudabout way of El Paso, Tueblo and Kansas City, all direct communication with Uvalde and other flooded towns being cut off. Latest reports received are more alarming than the earlier ones. It is still a matter of uncertainty as to tho number of lives lost, but additions to the list of drowned are constantly coming. About one-half the houses of Uvalde, a town of 2,300 people, were carried away, and there is much Buffering there,but no more fatalities are report¬ ed from that place. Nothing has yet been heard from the settlement of seventy-five families several miles be¬ low Uvalde, but there are still grave fears that many if not all of them were swept down by the torrent. CHINESE BOATHOUSES BURN, Ami Over a Thousand of the Celes¬ tials Lose Their Lives. Special dispatches from Shanghai state that the British gunboat Red Pole has sailed from Chee-foo for Port Arthur. Junks arriving at Chee-foo from Xewelmnd report a large number of bodies of Japanese floating in the water at the mouth of tho Tatung river. Fire started among some flower boats that were moored stern to stern in the Canton river, and nearly all oi the craft were destroyed. The boats were moored in fleets and those em¬ ployed on them lived on board. Hund¬ reds jumped overboard and were drowned, while still greater numbers were burned to death. At least one thousand persons perished. JAPANESE ATTACK PORT ARTHUR. A dispatch to the London Timet from Shanghai says: “A Tien-Tsin dispatch lrom Chinese couriers say* that thirteen Japanese ships, withovei four thousand troops, are attacking Port Arthur. The Chinese garrison, numbering 5,000 men and the Chines* fleet, have been ordered to attack tht Japanese.^__ FOR SOUTHERN ADVANCEMENT. A Convention of Business Men of the South at Washington. Business men from the southern states met in convention at Washing¬ ton, D. C., Thursday morning to de¬ vise methods for the investigation and development of southern investments and resources. One of their objects is to secure the establishment of a permanent exhibit of southern re¬ sources in Washington, with an auxil¬ iary bureau in which the various in¬ vestments, likely to secure capital, may be recorded with all particulars and thus establish a reliable medium be¬ tween northern capital and the rich fields for development iu the south. With a view of making the convention a success, many of the commercial bodies in the southern cities appointed LATEST DISPATCHES GIVING THE NEWS UP TO THE HOUR OP GOING TO PRESS. _______ A Brief Summary of Dally Happen ings Throughout the World.

Publie feeling against lynching runs high, Dispatches received at Paris from the officer iu command of the French forces at Timbuetoo, dated August 5th - do not mention any disaster to th O French army in that locality and it is hoped that the reported massacre of a portion of the garrison at Timbuetoo by the Tuarcges is unfounded. The business men of Athens, Ga., will in a few days organize a business men’s league. The object of the league will be to promote the interests of Athens and to furnish all necessary in formation to capitalists seeking south ern investments. This league will have fifty or sixty active members and will do much good. The window glass manufacturers’ association of Pittsburg, Pa., and the officials of the workers’ union went into a conference on the wage scale Monday morning. The indications point to an arrangement on the rales already agreed npon between the work¬ ers and individual manufacturers, viz: 20 per cent, reduction from the wage scale prevailing last year. A Bmall cyclone struck the south¬ western part of Louisville, Ivy., Mon¬ day afternoon and did 810,000 worth of damage. Thnt the destructive cloud was too high is the only reason the terrible scenes of the cyclone of 1890 were not repeated. As it was, the peo¬ ple living iu the vicinity were nearly frightened to death and several of them hail narrow escapes from being killed. Happily, however, there were no fatalities attending it. The forty-second annual session of the American Pharmaceutical Associa¬ tion opened at Asheville, N. C., Mon¬ day morning with a council meeting at 10 o’clock. Iu tho afternoon an address of welcome extending the free¬ dom of the city was delivered by May¬ or Patton and responded to by Vice President Leo Eliria. President Pntehen, of Boston, delivered the au nual address and the remainder of the session was tnken up by routine busi¬ ness. The Madrid Gazette publishes the text of tho decree cancelling the reci¬ procity treaty between the United States and Spain concerning Cuba,the cancellation to take effect “the mo¬ ment tho United States applies tho new customs tariff.” Instructions have been sent to the Spanish colonies that cargoes which cleared from tho United States before the new tariff went into effect are to pay the old rate of duty. Negotiations are in progress in Madrid for a commercial treaty between the United States and the Spanish colo¬ nies. NATIONAL LABOR DAY Fittingly Observed Throughout the Country—Imposing Parades. The first celebration of Labor Day as a national holiday was generally observed at the national capital. Also, for the first time iu their history, all the local labor organizations united for a common purpose without a squabble or jealousies, and did honor to the occasion. This was only befit¬ ting, inasmuch as the Washington or¬ ganizations were instrumental in es¬ tablishing the holiday as a national institution. Plasterers’ Assembly, No. 2,672, of the Knights of Labor, in Washington city, claim the credit of initiating the movement to pass a bill through con¬ gress declaring the first Monday in September a national holiday, under the name of “Labor Day.” Many states had previously authorized a similar celebration, but this was the first attempt at national recognition. The bill was championed by Senator Kyle, of South Dakota, and was pass¬ ed without difficulty, it becoming the law by the president’s signature June 28th last. AT CINCINNATI. Labor day was celebrated nt Cincin¬ nati by a street parade and picnic, in which the unions, allied with the building trades council, took part. Although the assemblies affiliating with the Central Labor Union did not participate as organizations, many of their members joined the procession and devoted the day to merry making. AT NEW VORK. Celebration of Labor Day in New York was the largest and finest ever held in the city. Over thirty thous¬ and men were in line, and the parade was a triumphal march from beginning to end. At Nashville, Tenn., the day was celebrated by a practical suspension of work and business. There was a pro¬ cession three miles long, in which all the industries of the city were repre¬ sented. There was a large assembly, dinner and speeches at Westside park. Governor Waite Released. At Denver, Col., Friday afternoon, Commissioner Hinedale discharged Governor Waite and held the other defendants, Dwver, Mullins and Arm strong, to the grand jury in $500 on the charge of conspiracy. Governor Waite, in his own defense, vigorously denied any connection with the con spiraey and said he would abide by the decision of the commissioner.

A MOTHER’S STORY. HAPPINESS COMES AFTEtl YEARS OF SUFFERING. Thn Terrible Experience ot a Well Known Official'* Wife—A Stnry Thnt Ap¬ peal* to Every Mother In tho i.mid. From the Chattanooga , Tenn., Press. No county official in East Tennessoo la bettor known nnd more highly estcotnod than Mr. J. C. Wilson, Circuit Court Clerk ot Rhea County, nt Dayton, tho home of Mr. Wilson. He enjoys the confidence nnd re¬ spect of all classes, nnd in tho business com¬ munity his word Is as good as his boud. Just now Mr. Wilson is receiving heartiest con grntulatlons from his numerous friends be¬ cause of the restoration to robust health of his estimable wifo, who has for years been a helpless invalid. Mrs. Wilson’s high stand¬ ing in society, and her many lovable traits of character have won hor a host of friends, and her wonderful recovery has attracted widespread attention. As tho Press was the medium ot bringing to tho invalid lady’s attention the remedy that has effected her remarkable cure, a re¬ porter was sent to Dayton to interview Mrs. Wilson, in order that tho general public might have tho benoflt of the sufferer's ex¬ perience and be made aware of the treatment that wrought such a marvelous change in her condition. The reporter was welcomed nt the Wilson homeland tho enthusiastic lady with becoming reluctance gave the his¬ tory of her affliction and the manner in which she was relieved : • “Yes,” said Mrs. Wiboa, “I was for 8 years an invalid with one of the most dis¬ tressing afflictions woman can suffer. For 8 years I moped around, dragging myself with difficulty and piin out of bed. My little ones went untrained and were greatly neg¬ lected, while I looked listlessly nnd help¬ lessly at the cheerless prospect before me ntd them. I suffered the most infensopains in the small of my back, and these seemed even greater in the region of tho stomach, extending down, to tho groins. I suffered agony sleeping or awake. Despair is no word for the feeling caused by that dreadful sensation of weakness and helplessness I constant ly experienced. “I was treated for my trouble by several local physicians, but they were able to give mo only temporary relief had by the use of se ta tives and narcotics. I almost given up all hope of ever securing permanent relief when I saw an account in the Press of a cure which Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had effected. I decided to try them, as I knew tho lady who had been euro 1 and had great confi¬ dence in her statement. I began to take the pills doigg in October, 1893, and in two months I was light housework and attending to the children without any bad effects or weakness, such as I bad formerly experi¬ enced. Hitherto, I had been unable to re¬ tain any food, but now my appetite grew stronger, and with it came back that old, healthy nnd hearty tone of tho stomach. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me, and I assure you the cure has brought a great change in our home. I can now rejoice in my hus¬ band's success, for I feel that I have some¬ thing to live for. Who has a better right to feel this than a mother? One thing more. I have recommended these pills to others, and many of the women of Dayton have taken them with good results, and It is my greatest pleasure to recommend to every suffering woman a remedy that has done so much forme.” An analysis proves that Dr, Williams’ Pink Pills lor Pale People contain in a con¬ densed form all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the bloo 1 nnd restore shattered nerves. They are an un¬ failing specific for such diseases as locomo¬ tor sciatica, ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus’ danco, headache, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous ‘he alter effects of la grippe, pal¬ pitation ot the heart, pale and sallow com¬ plexions, that tired feeling all resulting from nervous prostration; disease* resulting from vitiated humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to fe¬ males, such as suppressions, irregularities, and all forms of weakness. In men they effect a radical euro in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of whatever nature. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are now manufactured by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y., and arc sold in boxes (never in loose form by the dozen or hundred, and tho public are cautioned against numerous imitations sold In this shape) at 59 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all drug¬ gists, or direct by mail from Dr. Williams’ Mediciae Company. An Aluihinum Yiolin. Dr. Alfred .Springer, of Cincinnati, has introduced an aluminum violin, which produces an enormous volume of tone, fully five times that of an or¬ dinary wooden instrument. There is a variety of opinions as to the quality of the tone. Some musicians declared that the quality is not as good as a wooden one for solo work, but that it would prove good in orchestra work. Others take the opposite side on the question entirely. So Use to Cry. No use to fret and worry and itch and scratch. That won’t cure you. Tetterine will.

Ordinarily rogarded dust is a nuis¬ ance, yet it plays a most important part in our very existence. In fact, dust gives color to not only the atmos¬ phere, but to everything we behold. The sky is blue, the mountain green, the ripening fields of corn yellow, the evening sunset red, the clouds purple, all through dust. Our soft, uniformly diffused daylight is due Entirely to dust. In truth, our days would be darker than moonless nights but for dust. The fineness of the particles of atmospheric dust determines the color wo see. Those dust particles inter cept and diffuse tbo light, Somo of these atoms are large enough reflect the blue ether waves, fewer of them capable of reflecting green and yellow, and still fewer large enough to influence tho red ethereal waves, henco blue is tho prevailing atmospheric color. Tho deep blue of the sky in Italy and the tropics is solely from the faot that at¬ mospheric dust is finer there. Rainfall is produced by dust. Every particle of moisture evaporated by the sun condenses upon a paiticle of dust as a nucleus, and hence precipita¬ tion in rain. We could have no snow, no clouds, no fogs, no color without dust. In winter everything would bo covered with a crust of ice. In short, without this usually considered nuis¬ ance, living, dusj^ life if living would not possible.— be xvortk even were Exchange. Mildewctl Clothes. Clothes that sprinkled overnight y are in sultry weather are quite apt to mil¬ dew before morning. Rub them with buttermilk and lay them in tho sun, anil the mildew, unless very bad, will disappear. Another remedy is salt and vinegar. It may bo well to state that badly mildewed clothes can never be made white. 555!?!!: “All Right” mm - IL Kerosene Cook Stove. Boils, Bakes and Broils for only three cents a day!

Coulil Only Sec at Night. Tkero is a case recorded near Lyons in 1867 of a girl who not only was un¬ able to see iu tho daytime, but had to bo kept in a dark room, so painful was the light to her eyes. She was taken out for exercise every night and dis¬ played a power of vision that was al¬ most telescopic. She was able to dis¬ tinguish moving figures on a road, when persons beside her with good sight could see nothing but the black¬ ness of night. The ignorant French peasantry thought tho child bewitched and an attempt was made to poison her. Tho parents became alarmed nnd fled to Paris, taking tho girl with them. She was taken to a hospital, whero she came into the notice of Dr. Paille, the famous occulist, and he paid tho parents for the privilege of lecturing on tho phenomenon. Tho girl eventually died insaue, but re¬ tained her power of seeing at night in tho dark until the last moment .—New York Mail and Express.
