Suicide's Body Is Eecov eied
The body of W. fl. Marah,the Lewis
burg shoe merchant who jumped to
his death from the new bridge at that
place into the Susquehanna river on
March 12th, was found floating in the
water at Halifax on Monday moruing.
The body was bloated aud blackened
beyond recognition. It was cut and
bruised,evidently from scraping along
the jagged stones on the river bottom,
aud most of the clothing was torn off.
It was seen floating in the water and
dragged ashore. It.was identified by
papers found iu the pockets, and by
the cork leg that the deceased wore. A
watoh which he carried was intact in
a pocket. The fluclers will be entitled
to tho reward which was offered for
the recovery of the body.
Tho remains were taken to Lewis
burg and prepared for burial. The
funeral vsas held Tuesday afternoon
The services were conducted by the
Rev. Dr. W. E. Thomas, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, of which the
deceased was a prominent member.
Mr. Marsh is survived by a wife and
six children. Business worries were
the ascribed cause of his suicide.

Many vromou mistake kidney and
bladder troubles for some irregularity
peculiar to the sex. Foley's Kidnev
Remedy corrects irregularities and
makes women well. Miss Carrie Hard
en, Bowling Green, Ky , writes: "I
Buffered much pain from kidney and
bladder trouble until I started to use
Foley's Kidney Remedy. The first bot

taking tho second boitie 1 was entire

GLASS OE 16
| _ CONFIRMED:
Sorvioes at Christ Episcopal church '
j Sunday, I'alm Sunday, were of an
| unusually interesting character. Rt. ;
i Rev. James Henry Darlington, D. D.,
| bishop of the diocese of Harrisburg, |
j was present aud administered the rite
lof confirmation to a class of sixteen.
] The ceremony by which the candid
ates were admitted to the full privil
eges of the church, as performed by
Bishop Darlington, was of a very im
pressive natnre.
Following the confirmation the bish
iop preached a sermon, selecting as
i his text the fifteenth chapter of St.
Luko, eleventh verso: "And He said,
a certain man had two sous."
Bishop Darlington is a man of ex-
I traordiuary power. His personal mag
j netism, his eloqueuco and roady com
; maud of language all combine to make
him a most attractive fpaaker. He is
always fortunate in his theme mid the
lessons which ho deduces apply to all
; the different spheres of life and they
are driven houia iu a way which in
| sures that none of their effect will ba 1
lost
i Bishop Darlington in his sermon
Sunday dwelt especially on tlio iif
teen Hi chapter of St. Luke, explaining
how appropriate it is aud tiie manner
j iu which it is used by the church iu
connection with the season of • ii:t. I
The sermon had especially to do j
with tlio three parables reoited in the
| chapter—the parable of the "Lost
I Sheep," the "Lost Coin" aud the j
: '' Lost Man. "
The bishop explained the meaning
of the word "parable," after which
! he explained tlio significance of the
| idea symbolized by the parablo itself. .
In the case of the "Lost Shetp,"Jie
said, the loss represents one pr ceut;
it was a business loss. In the parable |
of the "Lost Com," in which a wo
| muu lost one of ten pieces of money,
the loss was one-tenth. As may be
j understood from a study of the usages <
' and customs of that land the loss
j;'gullied the breaking if family ties, I
| .in- - the recovery of the money
i signified the reuniting of the severed j
, bonds Mor over it was a woman
whoso hesrt bled over tlio loss— a wo
rn »n who found the ooiu aud brought
I restoration.
1 Iu the case of tlio "Lost Man,"the
loss was fifty pbr ceut. "A certain
mau ha 1 two sons" and lie lost one
In this case a woman does not find
what is lost, bat the man finds him
self.
it was while dwelling upon the lat
ter parable that tlio sp at- r diluted ;
H-vcral striking lessons, which tl.o con
gregation had no difficulty iu apply
-Img Arriving as the point where the I
father sought t<> justify himself to the
1 elder son for having killed tho fatted
calf ou the return of the prodigal, the
speaker eaplaiued that we are all more
or less prodigals: that often where
there is liss of conscience there is
| greater vivacity. We all grow w• ary
at times cf the routine of labor. We
are ever ready to advise tiie boys to re
* main ou the farm, yrt therii aro none
of us if wo were obliged to live on a
t farm remoM from town ami its as
sociations among the drudgery and
i dirt, but wonhl r.ry out against such a
1 life. Our forefathers, even the rever
ed Pilgrim fathers, were more or less
I prodigal; they grew tired of the old
j world and thirsting for change came
1 to the new world.
The father killed the fatted calf to
; show his jov over the prodigal's re
turn. "The one that \sn» dead is alhe
j again."
Bur how about the prodigal? He
had lest everything lie had ever pos-
I sessed. He hnd fed swine and was dis
graced. He could never be as lie was
! before ; henceforth ho WHS to bo A ser
-1 vaut to his brother.
The lessou hero deduced was that it
pi>s to be good; it pays to do right—
Ito start right aud to be right. You
j can not sin and be as you were be
fore. The memories will remain aud
the old pictures of sin will come back.
You will be that much worse because
of your siu. You will never be the
j same thereafter, although your soul
j may be saved. Have grace therefore,
1 i to stand fast aud do not sin.

/ O matism come from ex
~ST cess cf uric acid in the
——blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
aii constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is
soon realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases
and is sold on its merits
by all druggists in fifty
cent and one-dollar siz
es. You may have a —^yl''iff"
sample bottle by mail Homo of swamp-Root,
free, also pamphlet telling you how to find
out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.

"j''stem for last, year, it is sliowu that
809 poivo'tg were killed or died from
i ,i fit 1 receive i while trespassing on
the railroad property. This record is
for al! the Hues both east and west of
Pittsbur,\ 8 i important has this mat-»
ter become that the .New York and
Chicago Ueueral Mauag is' association
have taken it up. OHicersol these ae
ociations estimate that more than half
the 10,000 people killed last year ou
American railroads were trespassers.
Some of the State railroad commis
sion* arc also agitating this subject.
T io railroads want greater authority
than they now have tinder the law to
compel people to stay off their right
of way, ami to punish those who per
sist in walking ou the tracks. Last
year 4,156 arrests for trespassing and
illegal train riding were made en the
ritiht of way off the Pennsylvania rail
road. During the same )i riod 466 men
were airested for larceny, which is an
extreme form of tre pass. What the
| Pennsylvania railroad suffered from
larceny ia 11)07 is .ecu in the fact that
, the company paid our luring the year
$43(5,0(Ti in claims for losses which
' won traced to thefts.
CLAIMS BLACK
HAND A MYTH
The dreaded L'lack Hand, which
tignr *s .) ptf.miuently in the reports
I in daily i ipers o( many crimes, is
really a mythical creatioi:, according
to Kin.' Victor EuiUMUUftl, of Italy.
No or) • ir.ed society exists and the
<»atr « attributed to the Black Hand
.iic really attributable to a gang of
detached malefactors. The kin;; ex
pressed his views during an audience
•ie gave testerday to Robert Watch
orn, commissioner of immigration in
New Y , and William I. !l >vland,
secretary of the Oatlcc company.
1 lis n;: jesty fald :
"If is absurd to speak of the Black
Hand as being an emanation of the
'C »morr.V or'MafiV. TI
in merely a gan ( of detached male
factors which baa iapptned to come
into existence among Italians, jiist as
' other orvaMx-itimw 1 :ve been formed
among the peoplo of other national
ities.
"The outragrs in America by this
are rejip tted here, as much as in
America, because they cu ' discredit
ou a largu boily of reputab'e and hard
