G. A. R. MEETING AT CHATTANOOGA
BTIRRING SCENES RECALLED BY MENTION OF HIBTORIC HOMES AND BUILDINGS OF 1863. Houmi In Which General* Grant, Thomas, Roaaorana, Commander*, Held Conference* During the Days of Carnage. Chattanooga, Tenn. —There are a number of buildings yet standing in Chattanooga that did aervice for the Union Army in 1863, the mention of which will doubtless recall stirring times to several thousand old soldiers who expect to attend the 47th annual encampment in this city in September. Among these are bouses that served as headquarters for famous generals, hospitals for wounded soldiers and morgues for hundreds who were killed in battle. In turn buildings are also standing in which social functions were held before and during the war. Some of these buildings are in good repair, but many of them show the ravages of time and the elements. One of the oldest buildings, if it does not rank first in point of age, in the Chattanooga vicinity, is a mission house at Byrd’s mill, a few miles east of the crest of Missionary Ridge where the great battle waß fought This house was erected by Gideon Blaokburn, of Pennsylvania, in 1808, who came west as a Missionary to the Cherokee Indians. Blackburn was the

first missionary sent to this section by the Tennessee presbytery. He by tbe Tennessee presbytery. The building around which greater interest centered after tbe occupation of Chattanooga by tbe Union troops perhaps than all others, to the old Crutchfield hotel, now the Read House, a modern brick hotel building since erected on the site of the Crutchfield house. After the battle of Chiokam&uga the Crutchfield bouse was used as an army hospital. Hundreds of wounded soldiers were carried from the field of Chlckamauga, a distance of ten miles
from Chatatnooga, and cared for In this hotel. It was also headquarters a great deal of the time for Union commanders. Many important conferences were held there, the state of the Union discussed and plan laid for military operations. In turn this house has sheltered all of the military officials of the Confederacy that were assigned to this territory, including President Jefferson Davis, of the Confederate States, members of his cabinet and other men high In the councils of the south. In war days there wag a Crutehfleld farm on the Tennessee river a few miles above Chattanooga that will be remembered by every survivor of the Union army who was with Gen. W. T. Sherman at the battle of Missionary Ridge. Gen. Sherman first crossed the Tennessee river at Brown’s ferry below the city and marched up the north bank until he was opposite the mouth of South Chlckamauga creek. Here he recrossed the Tennessee, landing on the Crutchfield farm. His object was to attack the position ot Gen. Patrick Cleburne on Missionary Ridge at Tunnel Hill. Desperate fighting occurred at this point, and ttye Crutchfield home, a commodious farm house, was corverted Into a hospital where several hundred wounded soldiers were given surgical attention. The Crutchfield farm contained 2,000 acres. Gen. James A. Garfield occupied the residence of the late Judge D. M. Key, postmaster general In President Haye’a cabinet This house is still standing and has been kept In good repair. The Loveman residence Is built upon the site of the Brsbson home that was headquarters of Gen. Bragg before toe evacuated Chattanooga. The Brabeon home burned thirty-one years ago. The Nottingham residence, one of the best appointed in Chattanooga, was occupied during the war by Generals Hill and Palmer. The remains of Gen. MoPherson, who was killed before Atlanta, lay In state In this residence, surrounded by a military guard of hones.

Theme; THE COMPASSIONATE - CHRIST. \ ++ + > BY THE LATE REV. THEODORE L. CUYLER, D. D. 4 ♦ ♦ There is no place in which human sorrows are felt as they are felt In the heart of Jesus. No one knows human weakness as He knows it, or pities as He can pity. Every suffering of the body is known to our sympathizing Lord, and every grief that makes the heart ache. Human pity is often worn out from overuse. It impatiently mutters, ‘"ls that poor creature here again? I have helped him a dozen times already.” Or it says, "That miserable fellow has taken to drink again, has he? I am done trying to save him. He makes himself a brute; let him die like the brutes!” Human pity often gives way just when It should stand the heaviest strain. - __
Compassion dwells in the heart of Christ, as inexhaustible as the sunlight. Our tears hang heavier on that heart than the planets which His Divine hand holds In their orbits; our sighs are more audible to His ear than the blasts of wintry winds are to us. When we pray aright, we are reaching up and taking hold on that compassion. The penitent publican was laying hold of *it when he cried out of that broken heart, "Be merciful to me, a sinner!" It Is His sublime pity that listens to our prayers and hears our cries and grants us what we want. Therefore let us come boldly to the throne of grace and make our weakness, our guiltless, and our griefs to be their own pleas to Him who is touched with the feeling of our infirmities. One of the most characteristics, stories of Abraham Lincoln is that A poor soldier’s wife came to the White Houbc, with her infant in her arms, and asked admission to see the President She came to beg him to grant a pardon to her husband, who was under a -military sentence. “Be sure and take the baby up with you,” said the Irish porter at the White House door. At length the woman descended the stairway, weeping for Joy; and the Irishman exclaimed, “Ah, mum, it was the baby that dia It!” So doth our weakness appeal to the compassionate heart of eur Redeemer. There 1b no more exquisite description of Him than in this touch: "He shall feed His flock like a shepherd; He shall gather the lambs in His arms and carry them In |His bosom; He shall gently lead those that are with young.” Such is our blessed Master’s tender mercy to the weak. It Is tender because It never breaks the bruised reed or quenches the feeblest spark. This world of ours oontalns vastly more weak things than strong things. Here and there towers a mountain pine of stalwart oak; but the "’frail reeds and rushes are Innumerable. Even in the Bible gallery of charaotere, how few are strong; yet, none hut had some weakness. Abraham's tongue Is once twisted to a falsehood; the temper of Moses is not always proof agalnßt provocation; Elijah loses heart under the Juniper tree, and boastful Peter turns poltroon under the taunts of a servant-maid. But evermore there waits and' watches over us that infinite compassion ■ that knoweth what is in poor man, and remembereth that we are but dust. For our want-book He has an Infinitely larger supply-book. The same sympathizing Jesus who raised the Jewish maiden from her bed of death, who rescued sinking Peter, and pitied a hungry multitude, and wept with the sisters of Bethany ere He raised a dead brother to life, is living yet. Hla love, aa Samuel Rutherford said, "hath neither brim nor bottom.” This compassionate Jesus ought to be living also in the persons of those whom He makes His representatives. "Bear ye one another’s burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ” That law Is love, This law of Christian sympathy works In two ways; it either helps our fellow-oreatures get rid of their burdens, or If failing In that It helps them to carry the load more lightly. "We that are strong ought to bear the Infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.” Here, for example. Is a strong, rich, well-manned church, some of Its members are dying of dignity and others are debilitated with Indolence. Yonder la a feeble church In numbers and money. Let the-man who counts BBS In the strong church go where he can count ten In the weak church. If the opmpassionate Christ should come into some of our churches, I suspect (hat Hs would order more than one rich, well-fed member off his cushion, and send him to work m some mission school or struggling young enterprise. That early Church was saturated with the compassionate spirit of their Lord. They fulfilled the "law of Christ” The only genuine succeesore of those apostles are the load-lifters. Jeeus Christ exerted His Divine might and Infinite love in bearing the load of man's sin and sorrows. Consecration mean.] copying the compassionate Christ Power means debt —the debt we owe to the poor, the feeble, the alek. the ignorant the fallen, the gull tar and the perishing.

Miss Wilmine Hammann, Soloist at Indiana Fair
INDIANA FAIR IS BIG
Exposition Is Huge If Measured In Any Way, and It Belongs to People of State. Of course it will be big—the Indiana state fair, to be held at Indianapolis beginning September 8. It always is, for from its beginning in 1861 the fair has been growing both in magnitude and quality. Measure it by the 214 acres of ground it occupies, by the $66,044.50 it offers in premiums this year, in which exhibitors have over 5,000 chances to win; measure it by some forty acres of machinery, by 3,000 fowls in the poultry show, by 2,500 plates of fruit in the horticultural show, by 400 sheep, 600 swine, 500 cattle, 700 horses—and the state fair is big! It is not surprising that upward of 200,000 people from all over Indiana flow in at the exposition gates within five days every fall—the great run of these patrons being from the smaller towns and from the farms. So many thousaad Hoosiers have been acquainted with the fair for so many years that there is no longer any question of its importance as a factor in the upbuilding of the farm resources of the Hoosier land, and there is unending evidence of its force as an educator and entertainer of the Indiana public. The visitors from the farm go to the fair both for information and inspiration which can be turned to account on home lands and In home flocks, for the state fair stands for improved herds, better soils and increased output with less labor, and it points the way to the farm men and women to these ends. The country men and women turn to the fair as they would to a school—for information. The visitor from the town finds the exposition a bubbling fountain of enjoyment. It is a fair covering five days, with each day’s program as important as the others. And the fair belongs to the people of Indiana. Through their patronage at the gates they have gradually built it up to what it is today, and their increasing patronage enables it to become greater in magnitude and better in quality. It has risen to the level of the great state fairs of the United States both in character of displays and in number of patrons, and it gives glowing promise of going beyond its old records* along both these lines next September. The exposition should produce a still higher standard of exhibits, for some of the most noted-authorities of America have joined in revising its premium list, in renovating the classso that former classes which showed signs of weakness have been eliminated and those retained have been enriehed by greater premiums.
Besides the money prizes offered, exhibitors are lured to the coming fair by many special prizes in silver cups, gold and silver medals and other trophies. For draft horses alone four silver cujto, twelve gold medals and as many of silver are offered. The money prizes for horses amount to $88,870, of which $3,970 goes to draft classes, to animals in the night horse shows, $1,900 to saddle horses, and the remainder to other classes, including $920 for ponies. The speed purses amount to $26,200. In the cattle show, $12,265 is offered, $7,800 on beef cattle, $3,500 for dairy ciafeses. The prizes In other departments are: Sheep, $3,387; swine, $3,785; poultry, $2,178; agricultural products, $1,399.50; horticultural, $2,838.50; arts and crafts, $1,573.60. Because of the ever increasing importance of the Hoosier poultry interests, unusual preparations are under way for the poultry show at the Indiana state fair, which opens on September 8. The amount of prizes offered Is $2,178, and, since every breed raised in Indiana is represented In the premium list a great exposition of blooded chickens will be assured. To enable the show to expand, the Cultry house on the fair ground is ing remodeled so that its capacity for coops will be increased about onethird, so that the comihg show will have more poultry and visitor* than aver.—Adv. ]
y Remarkable Cure of Dysentery. “I was attacked with dysentery about July 15th, and used the doctor’s medicine and other remedies with no relief, only getting woise all the time. I was unable to do anything and my weight dropped from 145 to 125 pounds. I suffered for about two months when I was advised to use Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. I used two bottles of it and It gave §e permanent relief,” writes B. W. ill, of Snow Hill, N. C. For sale by A. F. Long. C Methodist Church.
