PECKVILLE.
The Rev. James Hughes, late of South
Africa, Is conducting a series of evan
gelistic services in the Baptist church
at Peclullle, and last night he referred
to the stralneifrelatlons between Spain
and the United States. He said, though
ho deprlcated war as the off-spring of
the Infernal regions in most instances,
yet ha considered that there were times
when war was less discreditable or sin
ful than peace, for In many instances
It might minimize human ruffcrlng and
put un end to the gross outrage of
the fundamental laws of human life.
"iVar, because of Its ludescrlb.iblo hor
rors, should bo the very las', remedy re
sorted to for the purpose of correcting
rational and international disorders.
When this Is not so, It is something
like engaging sitan to cast out sin.
The treatment of the Cubans for sev
eral years, years laden with groans
nnd Fhrieks of poignant anguish nnd
stained w 1th the blood of the Innocent
and the helpless, and the prsscnt con
dition of the I Ipedlng starving Cubans,
consequent ui;on the treatment to
which they have been subject for such
along time, appeal with what should bo
an Irresistible force to every Instinct
of true manhood and to every princi
ple of Christian people to put an end,
a speedy end, to the diabolical cruelty
and the fiendish outrages to which that
people are and have beeu subject. Per
sonally, I should be devoutly thankful
If this could be dona without resorting
to hostilities, but If not, I would say
that a shoit, f-lmrp campaign would be
far more humane and ontall far less
suffering than the piotracted slaughter
and suffering to which the Culians have
been subject, and aie likely to bo sub
ject for an Indefinite time, unless there
lie some Intervention. Trouble Js evi
dently brooding, but let us pray that It
might be destroyed betori; It Is hatched.
The government of this nation should
havo tho prayer and sympathy of every
right thinking man In this vast coun
try. Times are critical, and blsr with
great ')otentlalltIes, and the strain up
on our leglslutord must he enormous.
Wo need clear heads, stout hearts, nnd
calm spirits, for critical International
questions are looming in the near fu
.ture, which will tax to the full extent
the wlrest nnd the strongest to solve.
Every child ot God, every lover of
honour and humanity, should earnestly
pray that tho Great Ruler ot tho na
tions should Intervene and bring sweet
harmony out of the present discordance
and tumult, but should It be other
wUa designed 1 nm pleased to believe
that the whole nation will be at the
back of the government, and that In a
short time tho cancer will be cut out
and Cuba will be healthy and strong
again. ,

It is popularly supposed that more
beer Is made, drunk, exported from
and kept on hand In Germany than In
any other country In the world, but the
latest figures show that In respect to
tho volume of beer manufactured nnd
sold Great Britain rather than Ger
many stands first, and It appears, too,
that tho profits from the brewing busi
ness are greater In England than In
Germany. A statement recently pub
lished among tho mortuary statistics of
England showed that tho total amount
of personal estate disposed ot In seven
years by the wills of 119 English brew
ers was 19,948,557, with an average of
flG7,G37 each. In other words, the av
erage estate of these brewers was $800,
000. Boss brewers In England, as Is
the case In the United States, too, are.
as a rule, wealthy men, and some of
them arc very wealthy, as ith'e record
of their Investments, benefactions and
expenditures attest very clearly.
The reason for tlrtfl opulence, If It
may bo so described. Is not, however,
to be found In the fact that beer brew
ing of Itself Is particularly profitable,
but is due to causes which In threat
Britain, as In the United States, are
exceptional. A majority of the veter
an English brewers, as of the Ameri
cans, are men who thirty or forty years
ago began work In a small way as
brewery workmen, and afterward
achieved distinction as the heads of
small concerns. Beginning about ten
years ago In England and the United
States, the business of brewing ale,
porter, and lager beer began to bo con
solidated and llttlo by little tho smaller
concerns were absorbed or abandoned,
the output of the larger concerns was
Increased, and In a great many oases
tho former brewery firms wore suc
ceeded by stock companies, the capital
ization of which was based to a con
siderable extent on "the good will of
tho concern." This good will, the re
sults of many years of labor and of
advertising, was turned Into cash, and
the brewers were thereby enriched or
became possessed of cash resources
which men In other lines of trade and
manufacture had represented chiefly
In mntcrlal, stock, effects, or real es.
tuto.
There wan approximately 20,000 brew
eries In tho United Kingdom, and tho
great majority of them are small con
cerns. In the United States there are,
approximately, 2,000 breweries, many of
them large concerns, but the number
la decreasing every year, notwlthstand
lng th'o Increase in the salo of beer,
which Is now come to be regarded ns
"tho national drink" In tho United
States, as It Is already In Germany.
In England tho consumption of spirits
Is relatively larger than tlin cAnsump-
A POPULAR MISTAKE.
Itegnrdlng Remedies for Dyspoptln
und Indigestion,
Tho national disease of Americans Is
Indigestion or In Its chronic form, dys
pepsia, and for the very reason that It
Is so common many peoplo neglect tak
ing proper treatment for what they
consider trifling stomach trouble, when
as a matter of fnct, indigestion lays
the foundation for many Incurable dis
eases. No person with a vigorous,
healthy stomach will fall a victim to
consumption. Many kidney disease
and heart troubles dato their begin
ning from poor digestion; thin, nervous
people nro really so because their stdm
achs are out of gear; weary, languid,
faded out woman owo their condition
to Imperfect digestion.
When nearly every person you meet
Is aflllcted with weak digestion It Is
not eurprlslng that nearly every secret
patent medicine on tho market claims
to be a euro for dyspepsia, as well as
a score of other troubles, when In fact,
as Dr. Werthler says, there Is but one
genuine dyspepsia cure which Is per
fectly safe and reliable, nnd moreover,
thla remedy is not a patent medicine,
but It Is a scientific combination ot
pure pepsin (free from animal matter),
vegetable essences, fruit salts and bis
muth. It Is acid by druggists under
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
No extravagant claims uro made for
them, but for Indigestion or any stom
ach trouble, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are far ahead of any remedy yet dis
covered. They act on the food eaten,
no dieting Is necessary, simply eat all
the wholesome food you want and these
tables will digest It. A cure results,
because all tho stomach needs Is a rest,
which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give
by doing tho work of digestion.
Druggists sell these tablets at GOcts
per package. Little book on stomach
diseases and testimonials cent free by
addressing Stuart Co., chemists, Mar
shall, Mich,
tinn of beer. It Is a somewhat peculiar
fact that the Scotch and Irish, dissim
ilar In so many respects, consume ex
actly tho some per capita amount of
beer In a year, and that tho English
consume exactly double the average
ot Irishmen and Scotchmen.

SKX AND POPULATION.
Egypt Not the Only Lund Hioro tho
,11c n Outnumber the Uoincn.
From tho Sun.
The London Post has lately called at
tention to the statement that Egypt is
to enjoy the singular distinction of be
ing the one country In the world where
men exceed women in number. By the
latest census tho male sex in tho do
minions of tho Khedive exceeds tho
female by 160,000. This alleged distinc
tion of Egypt lacks, however, tho Im
portant featuro of being accurate.
Egypt is not the only country in which
women are outnumbered by men; thero
aro others several others and in the
number of these aro the United States.
By the census of 1890 thero were In this
country 1,513,510 moro male than femalo
Inhabitants. In Australia tho dispar
ity between tho sexes Is even greater
than It Is here. Nor can this prepon
derance of men be ascribed to the com
paratively recent settlement of the
United States and of Australia, for in
Italy men outnumber women, and by
the last Italian census there was an
excess of male over female Inhabitants
In the proportion of G0.20 to 49.80. Nor
Is Italy the only European country In
which this disparity is to be found. In
Greece the percentage of male inhab
itants is higher even than It is in Italy,
and so It is, too. In Servla and Rou
manln. In all the South American countries,
with the exception of Chill and Vene
zuela, men outnumber the women, and
this Is particularly the case in Brazil
and in the Argentine Republic. In
England's South African colonies, in
India, and In Canada, as well ns In
Efl:t, tho number of male Inhabitants
exceeds tho number of femnle inhabi
tants, and it Is not easy, therefore, to
see how such an error should have been
made as to say Egypt was entitled to
tho distinction claimed for it, provided,
always, that an excess of male pppu
latlon may be regarded as a distinc
tion, which most certainly every gal
lant and chivalrous man must unquali
fiedly deny. Egypt's claim to any par
ticular prominence lu this matter is
based on a very slender foundation at
host. By the census previous to the
last one it was shown that tho total
number of male Inhabitants was 3,
402,000 and the number of female In
habitants was 3,416,000. In a popula
tion, therefore, of nearly 7,000,000 the
excess of femalo Inhabitants at that
time was 14,000, and if since then tho
scalo has been turned slightly and now
shows a email preponderance of men,
there Is certainly nothing In it which
particularly calls for any great dem
onstration of surprise.
AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A I'OET.
Jninea Whilcoml) Itllcy "''cits tho Snd
fitory ol Ills Life.
James Whltcomb Riley, the quaint
genius of the "Hoosler State," once
wrote a brief biography of himself, and
this is his story: "The father of young
Riley was a lawyer of large practice,
who used, In moments of deep thought,
to regard this boy as the worst cose ho
ever had. This may have been the rea
son that, In time, he Insisted on his
reading law, which the boy really tried
to do; but, finding that political econ
omy and Blackstone did not rhyme, he
slid out of the office one hot, sultry
afternoon and ran away with a patent
medicine and concert wagon, from the
tall end of which he was discovered by
some relative of his In the next town
violently abusing a bass drum. This
was a proud moment for the boy; nor
did his peculiar presence of mind en
tirely desert him until all the county
fairs were over for the season. Then,
afar off, among strangers in a strange
state, ho thought It would be fine to
make a flying visit home. But he
couldn't fly. Fortunately, In former
years, he had purloined some knowl
edge of a trade. He could paint a sign
or a house or n tin' roof If some
one else would furnish him the paint,
and one of Riley's hand-painted picket
fences was a rapture to the most ex
acting eye. Yet, through dl his stress
and trial, he preserver a simple, joyous
nature, together with an ever-widening
love of men and things In general.
Ho made friends, and money, too
enough, at last, o gratify tho highest
ambition of his life, namely, to own an
overcoat with fur around the tall of it,
Ho then groped 'his way back homo,
and worked fpr nothing on llttlo
country paper that did not long sur
vive tho blow. Again excusing him
Belf, ho took his sappy paragraphs und
poetry to another paper und another
town, and there did 'better, till he
spoiled It nil by devising a Poe-poem
fraud by which he lost hla Job; and,
In disgrace and humiliation shoe-mouth
deep, his feelings gave way beneath his
feet, and his heart broke with a loud
report. So the true poet was born."
