The slim audience did not betoken the widespread interest in the i,emr sr- ance reform upon the part of Wing- hamites, yet what was lacking in quantity was made up in quality, as the auraienc, was select and appreci- ative. The meeting was opened by sing- ing, "All hail the power of Jesus name," when Rev. D. Perrie led in prayer. The address of welcome on bebalf of the local union was given by Mr. C. Gillespie, in which she said as the home was assigned to woman as her kingdom, if true to her trust she could not live at peace with the great enemy of the home and the church which is the saloon.

In conclusion, she said: As a result of this meeting more than ever I trust we shall be impressed that this temperance work is God's work and that we each have been called by hini into our different departluente of work to be co-work- ers with him in putting away from uur people that which has been the greatest hinderanco the Gospel has and which is the cause of so much suffering in and misery ; let ue seen the unity of purpose in all our tem- perance organization, and for the guidance of the .Moly Spirit., Mr. D. MeMorran, of Lucknow, was then introduced,. and rendered sweet st''atius with the harmonica, triangle and guitar, abed to the de• light of the boys he played the bones.

Acall has been sent out by Bishop Grant of the African Methodi-•t church for an anti -lynching convene tion to be held some time next month in Atlanta Georgia.In connect ion with the subjects the following fact is pnbl Lebed: There have been 97 cases of lynchir g in . the United States since Jan. 1st, 1897, an average of over 12 per month. Where Out - lynchings mainly occur is shown bis the fact that there have been 92 i1: the southern States and 5 in the northern. Fourteen of the southern States are represented in this black list as follows: Texes 19, Alabama 12, Mississippi 10, Georgia and Louisiana 8 each, Tennessee 7, Florida G, Southern Carolina Ken- tucky and Arkansas 5 each, Missouri 3, Virginia 2, and Arizora and vtaryland 1 each. In the north, California, Ohio, Nevada, Alaska and Illinois have had one each. Of the victims of these 97 lynchings 80 have been negrnes, 14 whites and 3 Indians. The southern papers, in seeking to palliate and excuse the prevailing lawlessness in that section continuously c' -targe odious crime upon the negroes as the main cause. The statistics, however, do no sustain the charge. Of the 80 negroes lynched 35 were killed for the crime of murder, while but 14 have been killed for assault on women, and i) for attempting it. Of the remainder 1 have beou lynched for robbery, 3 for arson, 2 for snspieion of arson, 2 fur race prejudice, 2 for murderous assault, 2 for unknown causes, and 1 etch for burglarly, writing an in- sulting letter, eloping with a white women, train -wreckers, refusing to give evidence, insults, and harboring a murderer, From the Amherst, N. S„ senti tel. The rugged and the strong do not appreciate to its full extent the bless - 'Lig of perfect health. It is only those who have passed through a try- ing illness, who fell that health is a treasure to be prized more tha, . or gold. Among , perieneed the truth of this is Bliss Sabra Rector, of West River Hebert, N. S. The lady has passed through. , a trying and wearisome illness, from which happily relief was found through the medium of a medicine that has brought health and strength to thousands of others, and whose medicinal virtues will work equally good results in all cases where it is given a fair trail. Miss Rector says: —" I feel it is my duty to recommed ' Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, as they have done wonders for me. About two years ago I became very ill with complication of diseases. I was suff- ering with indigestion, biliousness and the resulting nervous disorders, such ae sick headache, lose of appetite and flashes of beat end cold.
