TOAST BY MAYOR BEATTY. TV SceCIHIs kite Center Degree* end Ohe • Banquet. Tuesday and Wednesday of last week at the Masonic Temple in Fort Wayne, degrees from the fourth to the sixteenth were conferred. The first day included the fourteenth and ended with a banquet. Among the toasts was one girem by Mayer Beatty, of this city, which we gladly reproduce: “Our Mothers." Mother' How sweet the name. The light of her eye is the first to give us encouragement and the last to forsake us when cares weigh heavily upon our shoulders. Her presence wields an influence over us more powerful than the strongest argument. Oft’ times when men have forgotten their duty to their God. their neighbor and themselves the thoughts of a mother's love and tenderness and her angelic advice have caused them to pause and consider and ret urn to the path of rectitude and right. Heaven has imprinted in the mother’s face something beyond this world, something painters cannot imitate nor poets describe. The tender look, the food embrace, that Jovelv smile, that affectionate kiss, each makes an impression on the heart of her son which, if followed by him, will guide his footsteps safely through the storms of life. Can we supply a mother’s love? No! a thousand times no’ By the earnest longing of our souls for mother’s love: by the weary, aching void in our hearts: by the restless, unsatis fieri wanderings of our affections, ever seeking an object on which to rest: by the hallowed emotions with which we cherish in cur hearts the grass covered spot in the quiet graveyard; by the reverence, the holy love, the feeling akin to idolatry with which cur thoughts hover about an angel form among the seraphs of heaven - bv ail these we answer, no! There is a last ing tenderness in a mother's love for her son that surpasses all other affections of the heart. It cannot be lessened by danger nor killed by ingrati tude. Should the son refuse to obey her. or neglect and abuse her still will she love him as her child; and should all the world forsake and cast him off. that mother wilt cling to him as the ivy clings to the sturdv oak and she will still love and cherish him in spite of his treatment of her. How apt are we to underestimate a mother's lore and advice when she is with us: but when she has gone, when she has passed to the great beyond, when her smiling face cannot be seen nor her gentle voice heard around the fireside of our home, when that gentle touch of her hand to our troubled brow has been lost in death and we have laid her to rest in the old churchyard and the grafts covers that sacted ■soil, then it is that we fully appre ciate the name of mother. O, a moth * pc's grave! Earth has some sacred spots where we feel we should not tread, but none so sacred as a moth er’s resting place. When we visit her grave how our thoughts turn back to the time when we knelt at her side and looking up into her tare we lisped our evening prayer for her whose heart was a stranger to every unkind word, and whose lode lulled us into childish sleep. The remembrance of mother will touch the heart of the most hardened criminal ard bring tears to the eyes of the ungodly. What an influence a mother exerts over the life of her son. The rough»-st and hardest wanderer, whether be be a tramp going from place to place, or whether he bn upon the high seas on board a merchantman or man-of-war, or whether be be a wanderer among strangers in a strange land, recurs in his lonely hours when troubles beset him, to the smile* which maternal affection shed over him in his infancy. How many of our brave soldier boys who have died upon the battle field or in the hospital, have in their last rational moments sent love messages to their mothers*whose prayers have always gone up in their behalf while defend ing the country’s flag. How a dutiful son will labor for a poverty stricken mXher. How be will look after her

'every comfort: and should he receive I a message that that mo<c-r was sick ' and could not recover, bow quickly would he start for her bed side, and , his only hope and wish would lie that she might live until he could reach her sick room and imprint upon her brow one more affectionate kiss. Could i our mothers but step into this bani quet hall tonignt. how hallowed would their presence make this occasiao. How each brother present would vie with the other to make that mother 'comfortableand happy while with us. and when she was leaving he would [ poiut to her and say. there g>:ee the best mother on earth —one whom the angels should worship. While Indiana has marie its satisfactory gains in spite of the lack of big cities, it is noted that the largest increases in population are in the ■ oiunties containing the largest cities, such as Marion. Madison, Grant. Delaware. St. J Vawiertxirg. V.g; and Allen, in which are located the ' state capital and such thriving cities , as Terre Haute. Fort Wayre-. Sooth Bend. Evansville. Muncie, Marion and Anderson. November 6 appears to have a singular history in polities which is of interest to the party now in power. Bepubhcans won November b. NY 1 and November 6. I**". It is pointed out that th*- day falls there this year by a modification that only occurs three times in 400 years. Again in ItCM and 1532 the successful caudi-j dates were elected to a ssreond term •Jeffenton and Jackson, and those men had been denounced as imperialists. And now McKinley won November 6. 1900. No fe-gnt to Iglnw- s. The woman who is lovely in face, form and temper will aiwavs Lave friends, but one who would be attractive must keep her health. If she is weak, sickly and all run down, she will be nervous and irritable. If -he has constipation or kidney trouble her impure blood will cause pimples, blotches, skin eruption and a wretched complexion. Electric Bitters is the best medicine in the world to regulate stomach, liver and kidneyand to purify the blood. It gives strong nerves, bright eyes, smooth velvety skin, nch complexion. It will make a good-looking, charming woman of a run-down invalid. Only SOeents at Page Blackburn’s drug store. An effort will probably be made in th*- next legislature to have the terms of the county auditors all close at the same time. December .31 or January 1 A law was enacted to end the terms of county treasurers at the same time. It is pointed out that the two offices are closely allied and that the terms should end at the same time. Most f the terms of county officers end some time in November, which is the beginning of the busiest season of the year, when the December settlement is begun, the tax duplicates are pre pared and the fiscal year settlement for the county commissioners is marie. A new county auditor who enters in November strikes the busiest part of the year. It is pointed out that if the terms ended at the close of the year the new auditor would have a clean set of books and new appropriations to work under. A village blacksmith saved his little son’s life. Mr. H. H. Black, the well known village blacksmith at Grahamaville, Sullivan Co., N. Y., says: “Our little son. five years old. has always been subjected to croup, and so trad have the attacks been that we have fearer! many times that he would die. We have had the doctor and nsed many medicines, but CbamIberlain’s Cough Remedy is now our sole reliance. It seems to dissolve the tough mucus and by giving frequent doses when the croupy symptoms appear we have found that the croup is cured before it gets settled." There is no danger in giving this remedy for it contains no opium or other injurious drug and may be given as confidently to a Babe as to an adult. For sale by Holthouse, Callow A Co. n

WANTS MORE SOLDIERS Gen. Miles One Soldier For Each Thousand of Population. Washington. Nor. 17.—The feature ; of the annual report of Lieut. Gen. Miles, commanding the army, to a chapter dealing with the need for a general rrorganization of the military service. In regard to tMs question be says: Tb* ereats of the past two jexre sad ■ bait hare reached !a a cocdltioß that tha • Mtioa ttioat to meet.

There are weighty Mtn why snch a service as i is now dr-jianded of tbe army <-an not be ; I p-rf.-rmed by a temporary oegantatoton. Gen. Miles points out that tbe practical limitation of service of the vol- ’ unttA-rs to one year m the Philippines ■ makes this a ntost expensive practice, ‘ necessitating double transfer of troops ’ and adding enormotMly to the cost of ’ the organization. He also points out ’ the need of a reserve force for tbe re- ‘ lief of the soldiers wbo serve tn the , tropics, declaring tlmt the regiments that have wo far served more than twe . years at unhealthy stations should tee , relieved. «lrm Miles renews bto recommendation that tbe permanent force of tbe army should be one man sot , each 1.000 of population of tbe United ■ Biates. t The report shows that the urgent As , tnands for troops for remote stations ! has reduced the numlter In tbe United State* to a much smaller force that ; has been maintained at any time dur ing tbe past 39 years.

Griggs Will Go. Washington. Nov 17.—At the cabinet meeting yesterday Attorney Genera; Griggs informed the president and his colleagues that after mature deliberation. he had concluded that it would be impossible for him to remain a mem i ber of tbe cabinet for the next four i years. This was the first definite re-1 sponge from any member to the presi dent's wish expressed at the last cabinet meeting that all of the portfolios should remain in th* same hands during the coming administration. The resignation of the attorney genera) will not take effect until March 4 next, and it is thought at present that all the other members, with the possible exception of the secretary of war. will retain their present position*.

Like a Man. Sood after the conscript law was ' passed by the Confederate congress ; Captain Slack was appointed enrolling ; officer for the parish of Claiborne, with ; orders to have Its provisions duly exe- j cuted. His manner of execution was the reverse of that suggested by his name and created a lively sensation among the “bomb proofs," who. finding the pointed arguments of his muskets irresistible, moved rapidly and in a right line toward the front. Not long afte r his arrival my sister had occasion I to visit at* old lady whose son was notoriously of the peace persuasion. She soon missed his familiar presence, and the following conversation occurred: "Mrs. . where is John?" “Gene to fight for his country, child.” “Indeed. I thought be was one of the exempts." “Lor', honey. Cappin Slack don’t know no exempts. The other day I see his men a-gallopln down the road. 1 hollered to John they, war com In and told him the chimbly was a good place. Twasn’t no use. though, for they found him quicker than a cat does a mouse." "Well. Mrs. , what did John do?” “Do? Why. he came down and ’listed like a man.”—Lost Cause. ■ | SgK* There’s no reflection so \ ’WwS dainty, no light so ' fcjSZ. charming as the I 3 J mellow glow that X | i S comes from ® | tl.
