THE NAPPANEE NEWS. O. N. MURRAY. Publisher. NAPPANEE, : ; INDIANA THE CONVERSION OF BIG SIX By 8* B. HACKLEY (Copyright, MB. by DsiUy Story Pub. Cos.) THE "big meeting” at the schoolhouse “up the creek” was getting in full swing—the preacher, or preachers, for. there were volunteer Gospel expounders in plenty, every night exhorted loud'and long—the wildest and most reckless among the young negroes wept and trembled in their seats, excitement ran high, and the conversions were many and real. ' Jordon Dangerfield, the ring leader ®f the reckless, was a conspicuous example of the unconverted among the men. No word of argument, no appeal of song, had yet brought him to the “mourner’s bench.” “Big Six,” whose real name was Rachel Curd, was the one womftn against whom stones of persuasion and pleading were thrown in vain. Rachel weighed 300 pounds, and as she toasted she could do the work of a half dozen women, she was more often called by the appellation of “Big Six” Gian by her rightful name. Jordon was the beau of the county; he was not only the most fascinating among the negro youth, but his ability to make money was greatest In the hemp-breaking season his nightly bale outweighed any other hand’s—in corn cutting time he could cut more corn by day and dance' longer by night than any other. Many a wistful eye was turned toward Jordon, but his heart inclined toward Judy Gates—good little Judy, whose eyes spoke perpetual worship and appeal. She did not care for Jordon’s money-making ability—it was Jordon himself, big, black and strapping, that Judy loved as a creature Heaven-sent. Latterly, however, Rachel Curd had concluded that a combination of Jordon's financial ability and her own would be a fine thing, and she proceeded to “cut out” poor Judy. She joined herself to the crowd of young people who nightly passed by Judy’s humble home on their way to the “meetin’,” and she contrived to get Jordon’s arm within her own before they reached the cabin, and to rush him along so rapidly, and so flatter his mind with her wily compliments that he forgot even to glance toward the window where Judy was waiting, and there was nothing for poor Judy to do but to creep humbly to “meetin’ ” in the wake tof the gay crowd, with no other escort than “pap” or “mammy.” The meeting went on—while Judy wept and prayed for the salvation of her recreant lover, Rachel further installed herself In Jordon’s favor fey agreeing with him in his rejection of the Good Tidings. If he mocked the converted, she mocked harder; if he laughed at their entreaties, she laughed louder. Gentle, shrinking Judy, softvoiced and patient, was no match for Rachel’s bluster, and Jordon seemingly entirely won away, was no longer to be sought by Six. He did the seeking now, and accompanied her to the meeting every evening. The Dotys, Judy’s "white folks,” had company at the “house.” Thus it happened that one Saturday morning when the meeting was well on toward its twentieth night, a big "wash” was set down at Judy’s mother’s door. When Jordon Dangerfield, en route to the Doty hay fields, passed the cabin, a sound of mighty rubbing fell on his cars. Some memory of the happy times he had passed under the little •“leanto*” before Rachel Curd had lured Sim away, came to him, and he paused to look through the hollyhocks at the •small woman bent over the tubs. As he surreptitiously watched the tears that now and then fell on the Doty baby’s lace-trimmed white dress, and noted how thin poor Judy’s small face had become since the meeting had begun, his heart burned with shame, and presently he was standing by the •wash bench with the words: “Judy, Tdn I hab de honuh o’ ’scortin’ you tuh •de meetin' to-night?” on his lips. Judy looked up with a start “Why—why—Jordon,” she stammered, “I—l Does you ralely want me go widyou?” The chains with which Rachel Curd had bound Jordon fell away under the power of Judy’s iook of reproachful love, and when he found himself treading the dusty road again, his thoughts were as far from Rachel as they were •from the hay. fork on Els shoulder. A suppressed titter went round that evening, as, accompanied by a female friend only, Big Six, in second-hand finery of wine-colored silk and whiteplumed leghorn, came in the schoolJiouse and took a seat just behind Jor-

dop and Judy. Judy, In her best dress, ft hard-earned and many times washed white swiss, was serenely happy, and all unconscious of the glance that boded no good that fell on her from the weighty Rachel. “Look at Big Six!” whispered one young wench to another. “Lawd, 1 wouldn’ let loein’ uh beau put me in de sulks!” I clah, she look lak’ she mournin’— mebbe she gwine cometh’oo to-night!” said the other, derisively. It proved to be an unusually tumultuous meeting. The “mourner’s bench,” recently lengthened by the addition of three new benches, filled up. The air became fervid. High above the songs of the younger ones could be heard the happy shouts of the elders; the invitation hymn was sun? again and again, and while it rolled upward in melody—unctious, strong—a longdrawn murmur of surprise checked the voices. Big Six had risen and was making her way to the mourner’s bench! A greater wave of excitement swept over the throng; a keen-voiced negress changed the song, ' 01 Satan thought 4ie had me fas’, But I has broke his chains —I’m free at las’!” As the congregation took up the refrain the saints all over the house shouted anew in tfieir joy. Some reeled in their excitement and fell over the benches—not a few rolled on the floor in joyful frenzy, and near the door four men were compelled to hold a slim matron to prevent her from overturning the fireless stove and injuring herself in her excitement. SwMe®ly Rachel flung up her hands, and her call could be heard above the loudest shouts of the multitude. “Glory! Glory! Gimme de glory! I’se convince’ o’ my ongodly deeds. Gimme de glory now!” “Come on, friends an’ gib de band to de penitent ones!” cried the preacher, and the crowd surged toward the mourner’s bench. Rachel stood quiet, her eyes glazed and rolling, evidently uncon-

“COME ON, FRIENDS, AN’ GIB DB HAND TO DE PENITENT ONES!” sclous of those who clasped her hands, but when Judy stood in front of her, she was apparently seized with another paroxism of joy. “Glory!” she shouted, plunging forward, “I got de glory now!” With one hand she struck off Judy’s cherished straw sailor and trampled it under her feet. With the other, she gave one mighty jerk, apd the white swiss waist was hanging from Judy’s trembling shoulders. "Glory! Glory! I’se boun’ fuh Glory now!” she ejaculated, and with lightning rapidity her fat hand dealt a blinding blow in the face of her unfortunate rival. Then lowering her head, like a charging bull, Six literally butted screaming Judy out of the open side door and stamped her disheveled body before the confused negroes realized what she was doing. Jordon leaped to the rescue, and while willing hands pulled off Six, he lifted the limp and helpless Judy, whose torn dress was dyed with the crimson tide that crept from her maltreated nose. The meeting broke up in confusion. Those who rejoiced most over the apparent conversion of Bix Six were loudest in condemnation of her method of announcing it. “Don’ b’lieve dat nig übbah thought o’ bein’ converted—she jes’ hypocrited to git chanst to hurt Judy!” This was the universal verdict loudly proclaimed. Next day Jordon sat by Judy’s bedside, his face £ map of contrition and anxiety. “Es you’ll Jes’ say you kin fuhgive me fuh cotein’ dat wicked creetuh, Judy,” he whispered, “I’ll nubbah ask nothin’ .else o’ you whilst I live!” Judy looked at him with a little gasp of apprehension. “I sho’ thought you’d ask me marry you now, Jordon!" she said, with a sob in her voice. “Oh, Judy, darlin’, I nubbuh thought I’d dast! ” cried Jordon, bending over-her with a face full of surprise and delight. "Kin you mek up yoah mine to marry me ahftuh all whut’s ha^pent?" And Judy answered, happily: "I sho kin!”

State News Happenings

MAY NEVER BE BENTENCED. The Caae of John W. Terrell Is Puzzling the State Officials. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 26. —The life sentence may never be passed on John W. Terrell, the wealthy Wells county firmer, recently convicted of the murder of his son-in-lkw, Melville Wolfe. Gov. Durbin instructed Judge Smith, who heard the case, not to pass judgment until it was determined whether or not the prisoner is Insane. Judge Smith refuses anew trial/but .also refuses to impose the sentence. John Burns and W. H. Eichborn, of Bluffton, who prosecuted Terrell, laid the matter before Attorney General Miller Thursday, demanding that sentence be passed. The attorney general, however, believes it can’t be done so long as Terrell is adjudged insane. The question now arises as to what shall be done -with him. Being convicted he can not enter a state hospital, as they are only for free men. He can’t be sent to prison, where there is a hospital for prisoners who become insane after being admitted, neither can he remain in the Wells county jail indefinitely, whilwthe passing of the sentence Is awaited. It was stated Thursday, however, that his health is failing rapidly and death may solve the puzzle. The state authorities here will refuse to act further until the supreme court renders a decision.

DOCTORS FALL INLINE. Practicing Physician■ recognize the unfailing reliability of Doan’a Kidney Pm* by Prescribing them for Backache, Kidney, Bladder and Urinary Disorders — a tribute won by no other Proprietary Medicine. Four cases cited from “Hate* of His Practice;" by Dr. Leland Williamson, of Yorktown, Ark. Foster-Milburn Cos., Buffalo, N. Y. Yorktown, Ark., Mar. 1,1904, Gentlemen: —l have been engaged in the practice of medicine in thins section for ten years. This is a very sickly climate, on the Bayou Bartholomew, hear the Arkansas River. It is particularly malarious and miasmatic; we meet with many and various abnormal conditions of the human family, prominent among the cases in which I have been called upon to prescribe is kidney disease. Many of these disorders manifest themselves by pains in the back, often extending to other parts of the body; sometimes headache is present, caused by uraemic or chronic uric acid poisoning, soreness in region of kidneys, cloudy, thickened and foulsmelling urine, discharges of pus or corruption; inflammation of the kidneys, extending to the bladder, is caused by excess of uric acid and decomposition of urine. Hemorrhage is sometimes met with, caused by high state of inflammation or congestion. There is no class of diseases a doctor is called oftener to treat than the variety of kidney diseases, in many of which the patient will Have chills or rigors, followed by fever, a result of the kidneys failing to eliminate the uric acid poison from the system. Such cases require the kidneys restored to their natural functions, then the poison ana foreign substances are removed—shock to the nervous system averted, and natural health restored. • I have, for some time, been using Doan’s Kidney Pills in these many manifestations and with uniform success, curing most cases. I can further say that even in hopeless cases they have waited too long, Doan's Kidney Pills afford much relief and prolong life. I can recommend the pills in conditions of excessive or deficient secretion of urine, as also in convalescence from swamp-fever and malarial attacks, as verified by the following cases in m/ practice.

CASE 1. Thos. Orem., Bear, Arlt., age 60. Pain In back for several week*, then chilfe irregular sometimes, severe rigors, followed by fever. Gave good purgative of calomel and padoph, and Doan's Kidney Pills. After taking four boxes of the pilla, patient up and enjoyiag good health for one of hie age. CASE 2. Mrs. Smith, Tarry, Ark., age , mother of four children. Had female complaint and kidney trouble, manifest by pain in back and urine sometimes very clear, changing to cloudy, and with much sediment on standing in chamber. Gave local treatment for female complaint and prescribed Doan's Pills; after using six boxes she regards herself as cured.

These are a few of the typical cases in which T have used Doan** Kidney Pills. In a great many instances I use them alone with curative results, while with some others indicated remedies are associated. I believe that by the judicious use of Doan's Pills many serious complications are arrested and many hopeless and incurable cases of Bright’s disease prevented. I have often found that one box of the pills is all that is required to effect a cure, but in some cases I continue their use until all symptoms are entirely absent and the cure effectual and permanent.
