Although the speech of Com panion Jeffries Was impromptu, ho sustained his reputation as a ready speaker. Companion Jeffries is known among the craft as a brilliant speaker but on this Occasion he surpassed even his reputation. In glowing periods, his tono vibrant with feeing, he most elo quently pictured the lives of these dis tinguished companions who have been called from labor to rest.

Lyle, the alleged murderer of his wife and four months old baby in this city on the 20th of January, last, made a statement on his own behalf durmfc the morning session of Ware Superior court today pleading that the killing of his wife was an accident and stat ing that he does not know when or how the shot was fired which killed his babe. Lyle was one of the clamest persons in the court room when he made his statement. He said that the safety clutch on his gun was off and when he took It from his shoulder Just before entering his house it was discharged. He claimed to not know when the sec ond barrel of the gun was fired and repeated his statement of the firing of the first shot. Lyle denies that he was drunk on the day of tne ktllin and declared that he and his wife were on the friendliest terms. The - court room was crowded all day and this afternoon the door ways, aisles, rostrum and every other place where standing room could be secured was occupied. More than a hundred ladles 'were present and only a few persons in the house, remained seated beceause of tho crowded condition. During the morning session of the court a number of witnesses for tho State nnd that of the defendant were examined. Just before taking the stand to make a statement to the jury Lyle was smiling and seemed to be ln a very cheerful mood. Among those who testified for tho. State'was Henry Arr'’gton. an Uiicle of the murdered woman, he testified that while he knew of Mrs. Lyle be fore she married, he was not aware that she was a resident of Wavcross until the morning of the day of which Mrs. Lyle Was killed, when she came to hlfe house just before noon, he then went out and found Lyle and he pro mised to let his wife go home to her parents. Lyle accompanied Mr. Ar rington home where his wife had re mained while Mr. Arrington was look ing for Lyle. Lyle kissed his wife and later they left the Arrington home and Arrington did not see them any more until between 4 and 5 o’clock that evening going toward their home and he stopped them. That Lyle had a gun oh his shoulder and in talcing the gun down' unbreached It Mr. Arrington dis covering that it was Unloaded. Dr. J. H. Latimer was placed on the stand and stated that he visited the jail and made a physical examination of Lyle’ on last Sunday, he found him to be a man of ordinary intelligence but one who was of an extremely her- vous temperament. Dr. Latimer gave a description of the anatomy of a man regarding the effects of nervousness to a person’s muscles. Dr. Latimer stat ed that in his opinion it was possible for a nervous man to unintentionally pull the trigger of .a shot gun and then within a few sce&nds pull the other trigger. A number of other witnesses were also examined. This afternoon the State examined witnesses in rebuttal to witnesses of the defense. The case may go to the jury tonight.

April 24.—The State Department has been informed of the successful conclusion of peace negotiations at Amapala. A cablegram received today from Capt, Doyle of the United States cruiser Chicago, dated yesterday, says: "Peace conference agreed to treaty at 11 p. m.” Captain Doyle added that the peace commissioners and their staffs would embark last evening. It is Understood from that, that J. G. Garneze, who will represent Nicaragua, will be taken on the Boston to Corinto and that the Boston will proceed to Acapulco, Mexico, on her way northward. Senor Garcia, representative of Salvador in the conference, was to go aboard the Chicago and be taken to Acajutla. Sal vador. and then the Chicago was to follow the Boston, northward. These details of the agreement were lacking. NORFOLK. Va.. April 25—The day before the opening of the Jamestown Ter-centenhial Exposition on Hamp ton Roads finds the management of the big enterprise straining every en ergy to put the grounds and buildings in presentable shape for the inaugural ceremonies Several thousand labor ers were ehgaged today in clearing the streets which are to be traversed tomorrow by the President and his party and by the military organiza tions which will participate in the land parade- Notwithstanding tho rush being carried forward today the exposition is far from complete. Tem porary railroad tracks, debris of all sorts and unfinished sidewalks are the rule throughout the grounds, while almost every building is marred by an enclosure of scaffolding. The feature of the opening day will be the naval pageant in Hampton Roads. President Roosevelt on board the yacht Mayflower will review the ships of the. nations now at anchorage and the spectacle will be witnessed by thousands from the shores of the exposition grounds. The management, as announced of ficially last night, expects to have the exposition completed by May 15, in ail essential details, and this optimis tic prediction is quite generally con curred In by the citizens of Norfolk. The suggestion has been made that the grounds might be closed during the interim, but the directors decided against this course unanimously. Among the notables who arrived to day for the Jamestown Exposition's opening were Gov. Hoggins, of Rhode Island and staff, the Rhode Island State commission and the judges of the Supremo Court of Rhode Island: GoV. Roberts and staff, of New Jer sey: GoV. Woodruff and the Connecti cut party; Gov. SUanson, of Virginia, and party; Gov. Ans-t and staff, of South Carolina: the Ohio State com mission. with special representative of the Ohio department: the Louisiana commission to the exposition, ati<l Lieutenant-Governor Chatiler ahd the New Yol-k State commission. All of the United States regular troops’ have arrived on the exposition grounds. Tho foreign naval vessels which will be in line tomorrow when it Is reviewed by. the President are the German cruisers Roan and Bremen; Argentine training - cruisers Presi- dente and Sarmiente; the British and Austrian battleships, which arrived today and possibly: the Brazilian bat tleship Riachuelo, cruiser Barrose and gunboat Tamayo, which are expected to arrive today. The first official function incident to the opening of tho Jamestown Exposi tion took place tonight in the form of a reception to be tendered by the Gov ernor of Virginia and Mrs. Sivanson. incident to the dedication of the Vir ginia State building. Treaty of Peace SIqned. SAN SALVADOR. Republic of Salva dor. ADril 24.—A treaty of peace between Salvador and Nicaragua was signed last night nt Ainnpnla by ministers repre senting each country. Terms of the trea ty are honorable to botli countries. The conditions proposed by Salvador were ac cepted and the demands made by Presi dent Zelayft. of Nicaragua, for reparation for Salvador's part in tile recent war between Nicaragua and Honduras, and that there be a free interchange of com modities between Nicaragua and Salvador were rejected.

Members of the association will at tend the Memorial exercises this after noon nt 4 o’clock, which will curtail much of the work outlined for the af- ternooa session. However, as announc ed in yesterday’s Telegraph, the pro gram today embraces a large number of matters which will keep the dele gates busy the greater part of the day and evening. The Lay Ministry. Following is an abstract of the address by Chancellor David C. Barrow, presi dent of the association, during the ses sion held last night: Ladies and gentlemen, of the Georgia Educational Association. I greet you. Two of the great honors which have come to me have been received at your hands. At the last Cumberland meeting you elected aie as your president, and onre before, on that island Of blessed memot-v. this association conferred on me the signal honor of malting me a life mem ber. I have chosen for my subject “The jay Ministry.” It is my purpose to speik briefly on the relation of the teacher to society, with some mention of mutual ob ligations. The Teacher. The teacher’s office is essentially altru- tic. He stands on one side and sees his punils pass out one after another to enter the battle Of life. Are the veannus good? Is the eye true? Is tho head ready? Has the bt-eparatloh been such ns to enable his buplis to engage successfully in their battle? His success is not his own achievement, but In that of his pu pils. This makes hi in of all men the most altruistic. Of all nien. too. lie values youth most. TIs with the young lie denis.

A passenger on the train testified that he saw Pal mer strike the deceased several blows because he refused to stop singing. The prisoner was remanded. Palmer was formerly featherweight champion of England. He fought a draw with George Dixon In the United States in 1896; beat Pliinmer, the Eng lish champion ln 1S97 In England; came to the United States again in 1SD9 and was defeated by “Terry” Mc Govern in the first round cf a match for the championship of the world. After “Harry” Harris outpointed him respectively in 1900 and 1901 in Eng land, Palmer..was defeated by ‘'Jim'' Williams ln two rounds in London, January 27, 1902. On September 8. 1902, Palmer met George Dixon before the National Sporting club in London and defeated him in a 15 round bout.

We cannot hut believe tliat the tendency Of hts work is to make the oaehor an unselfish nnd an impecunious man. He must be absorbed in shaping char acter rather than in coining tuohey. He lias his reward, hut his reward Is not of the kind that can make a cheek good.

Consid er the pay of ahv business nnd rohihriCe it with that of the teacher. The teach er from 9 to 2 is anxiously seeking to ex plain difficulties.

Tt is for this end t have asked our business men to meet with us. We need their, knowledge of business to arrange onr financial affairs. We need a more intimate aoo»a!ntanee with them in or der to let them see onr needs. This work demands tlm best thought of „li the people for it is the greatest work of ail. The Stream of Youth. There Is a stream that Constantly flows by us. ever increasing, never returning. No clouds return the water of this stream to its fountain head.. Once gone by it is gone forever. It Is the stream or youth. The child who loses his education ttoes on uneducated to the end of his life He gains experience along the line of Ills work, hut he must forever lie dwarfed in Comparison with Ills possibilities. Strange as you may think it. tho mediocre child Is more-apt to suffer, and has greater need for this widening than the one more blessed with mother Wit. The Cry of the Church, There is a cry so common that all must have heard It; so loud that all must heed: so Important that nil must attend. It is the cry that people do not go to the churches. It Is no uncommon thing to have a clrotila- come In. asking why tuis is true—as if I knew! The minister who draws men Is said to be an exeeption. Of Pastor Wngnon. It was written with evident surprise, that men went to his Church in Paris. Again, suppose they do come, will they understand the sermon? In the old-time expressive language will "tile fodder be put low enough for the little calves to reach It?" We reply to this, there is the Sunday school. Yes/ there is the Sunday sehooi. Few people deserve to Win brighter ce lestial crowns than the devoted Sunday I school teacher. Is .your Sunday school planned-to seat the children? Rarely is the attendance equal to fho membership of tile church. Especially does this com ment hold ln cities and towns. Is therq need for argument? Is not the proof In evidence everywhere „nd at nil times, that while the church is the salt of the earth. Its benefits are not anplled to till men. It is the complaint of the church itself.

Now that this Is true.' give the local aid, give the country child his chance. Note of Warnina. During the period of preparation of this address many Incidents have called my attention to the increasing demand and the decreasing supply of teachers, es pecially men. You have noticed that I speak mostly of the young ladies Who are teaching. They make up this lay minis try. The proportion is growing all the time. Two gentlemen were talking about school superintendent who had resigned One was disposed to criticise him. for leaving his important work. The reply of the other was. that he was not able to support his family on the salary you paid him. adding “this city should pay its su perintendent $5.0001" “Why. that is as much ns a bank president gets!” ‘‘And why not?” I echo in the why not. Ts there a more responsible position in a city than that of superintendent of schools? Is the man who looks after all the thous ands of children, not to be paid as much as the man who looks after a part of the thousands Of dollars? It Is not alone men who are scarce. The Superintendent of Education in Louisiana made a statement that 300 schools were without teachers when open ing day came at the beginning of the school year. He was 600 or 700 teachers short, ns I remcmNsr it. He scoured the country for teachers. Mv friends, they pay more in Louisian than we do In Georgia. It will be our turn next. When I began teaching and could save $50 it would buy me ten acres of land. Now it will buy two or three acres The Extenuation. I know that wo have come through a hard period. We have come through sad time. It has molded those of us wt>3 are older into more Sombre moods than the brightness of our land and sky war' rartt. i The smoke of the great war hung over us. Much of that smoke has drifted or been driven away. You do not know how glad ulose of us who are older feel, to see the brightening sky. Wo want you to be hAppy and to be prosperous. I know. too. that there tft the heaviest kind of drain on the State. Prof. Ash more. who Is good at everything, figures | included, lias estimated that enough i money goes out of Georgia even- year for pensions to replace the educational build ings Of the State. Burn them down every year and build them back, with the money that goes to other States for pensions. The indirect tax is like a germ disease. It Will kill you and you will never see it. t know how many drains are on onr State and have been on it. I know. too. that we are bettor off. and are growing richer in spite of it all. Help the schools, help the schools for the sake of the chil dren. Perhaps I have digressed too far from my original thought, which was to show the tremendous responsibility which rests upon the teacher, especially that brave and beautiful hand of young ladies, who are doing much splendid work, per nduum fideles. I desire to go on reror-- against making the profession of the teacher a monev gotting business. If they get rich, and take caro or their money, they cannot teinth. It Is n calling too high to be measured in dollars. All that I ask Is a living wage and a small insurance. There is one demand of the church which, as an officer of the church, I make with boldness, and as a, memher I pay with great pleasure. It is the stipend for superannuated preachers. The lay ministry does not get this stipend, there is no fund for super annuated teachers. A Word of Advice. • Now. my dear young friends, voting la dles of the lay ministry. I close with a word to you. My record is clear through tile many years I have tried to serve vou. Tn all these years I have told you of the seri ousness of your undertaking, and ur^ed THE CALL OF THE BLOOD IN DEBILITY Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills Will Prevent Most Case3 and Has Cured Even Those That Stubbornly Resisted Ordinary Treatment. There are few cases of general de bility that could not have been pre vented. There Is no hidden cause for its presence nor is it sudden in Its at tack. Any person, who is over-work ed. or subject to any great worry or excitement, or undergoes some long- continued strain on the body, is liable to become debilitated unless the blood is kept pure and rich. Such unusual conditions call for more nourishment than the blood can supply and pale ness. headaches, poor appetltie, unre freshing sleep, backaches, loss of spirits and a general tired-out feeling, which follow, are simply a call for a blood tonic and builder. Mrs. Lena May Brooks, fo Pro trio Hall. Macon County. III., after several months of suffering finally found the right tonic in Dr. Williams’ Pink Pii,s. She says: “For several months after tho birth of my baby, I suffered terribly from a general breakdown in health. I was In bed for three months and after that was able to be up only a part of tho time. I was sick all over, being pale, weak and thin. My appetitie was gone and my head ached most of the time. Oftentimes there seemed to bo a rush of blood to my head and X would faint away. I was very nervous nnd was not strong enough to do any work. 'As the treatment I was taking did not help me, I began to take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, which a friend said had helped her. After taking a few boxes, X began to get well rapidly. continued using them for a time and am now as well and strong as ever in my life.” The value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in general debility lies in their direct response to the needs of the* blood. Their work is to make new blood. That they do this well Is shown by the gradual disappears n * of the symptoms and the return of ■color and health. They lay the foun dation for permanent health in the future. For the same reason these pills have cured anaemia, after-effects of the grip and fevers, rheumatism, indiges tion. and nervousness, dizziness, neu ralgia, St. Vitus’ dance and even par tial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.
