Address Dr. Hartman, President ol Tb tlartman SarStartuni, Columbus, 0, Mr. Sanders Pays a Warm Tribute to Rev. J. W. Little. Ti the Rdlhir of Tlir Journal : A week or two ko there appear ed an editorial uote iu Charity mid Children which I think dues lU'V. J. V. Little an injustice. It given notire of the pending lawsuit between J. W. Kowcll and J. V. Little, and speaks of J. V. Little iw a blunter)- prcncltcr, which means, km I understand it, a man who in giveu to loud and vehement talking merely to hear himself (nllt or to browlieat Home one, and haxu'l the moral eoumge to put into exe cut iD any of bin words or threats. Th is, 1 think, is entirely mislead ing as to J i in in ie Little. It is true, lie does indulge in a lot of loud talk too much, I think but when the time for action comes he ha never been known to show the white feather. 1 have watched him through a number of years, and while I sometimes feel that it would lie better if he said and did some things differently, yet I have never knowuauian who more earnestly upheld the right and opposed the w rung. He is especially the enemy of whiskey aud the whiskey tnttlir. Home years ago there was a still Is-ing put up within a half mile of my home aud there seemed no way to get rid of it, but Jinunie Little said, "I he hell kettle must go," and it went and has never returned. In the village of Wiugate, some time sgo, there was a mitu whom the most of the best people believed was running a kind of "blind tiger" and otherwise violating the law, and uoliody seemed able to catch huu. liut Jimuiie Little apiieared on the scene aud the business stoiwd and the man left. Scores of similar incidents have occurred iu Uuion aud surrounding counties in which J. V. Little has been the central figure. It is true that his denunciation of wrong is terrific and sometimes of the wrong -doer unnecessarily severe, I think, but for the suffer lug and all who stand in need of help, his heart is as tender as a lit tie child's. And for the man who is down, from any cause, and is honestly trying to rise, his words and deeds are full of sympathy and help. Although of slender means, many a dollar has he given to the unfortunate and many an orphan has he helped; while to hear him pray at the bedside of the sick, is to feel that the secret of the 1-oru is with him. He has knelt at the writer's bedside when life was Hick ering. Unlettered be is, sometimes uncouth and inelegant in bis ex pressioDS, but I do not k now a man who seems to come in closer touch with God upon such occasions. It is always pleasant to stay on the good side of folks, aud I love to dwell on such passage in the Bible as. "Thy gentleness bath made me great." and, "When a man's ways pleases the Lord be msketh even his enemies to be at peace with him." But truth is many aided and should he viewed from many standpoints, aud lest we should give undue prominence to the sentiment exprvtwu iu the pas sage just quoted, we should study such paKsaws as, ''I raiue uot to send peace on earth but a sword," and, "Woe unto you w hen all men shall speak well of you." Ktuooth wortls are very uice, but there is a lot of son talk that passe for reli gious that is only a cloak to rover np the wickedness and moral cow ardice of men. I was once ou the train with a Baptist preacher and he was telling me his troubles. Said a certain man was persecuting blm aud trying to injure his char acter, but that be was meekly bear ing it all in the name of the Lord; that only his religion helped and re strained him iu the ordeal through which he was passing and at the very time he was trying to steal a ride on the train. Such men need to be denounced in no uncertain terms. And we nerd fearless men to cry aloud agaiust the prevailing evils of our times. Such a man is J. W. Little. Whatever his mistakes, faith in his liod, love of right and hatred of wrong are the ruling passions of his life. O. M. M.t mucks. Wiugate, X. ('., July .'.", 1!MI5. Deaths.

The public la aroused to a knowl edge of the curative merits of that great medicinal tonic, Klectric Bit tern, for sick stomach, liver and kidneys. Mary 1L Walters, of M(i SL Clair a ve., Columbus, O., writes "For several months 1 was given up to die.

Guaranteed at English Drug Co. a; price &0c You had beeu a very sick man. For mouths the elements of dis ease had been gathering in your system you hid vaguely felt it, aud had spoken of it but hail not known what to do; so you had gone ou from week to week slowly ap proaching a crisis. At length some trilling cause, some one straw too many, had pre cipitaUsl the inevitable, and had knocked you over. It might have Us-u a stale "blue Mdut" at a late liuuer,'a tainted bit of fish, a salad which angrily resented the wine it might have becu one of a dozen errors iu diet, but whatever it was, you woke at midnight to find your self in the throes of disease, and with the swiftest possible seed you stepped down toward the Valley of the Shadow, Week after week you lay alsnl, racket! with pain. The frightful cough which shook you almost to the Miint of exhaustion, the shiver of cold aud the burning fever, the rheumatism which swelledand stiff ened every joint then the lassi tude of utter weakness in which you could barely muster strength to answer necessary questions or to swallow necessary physic. It was a toss-up as to whether you would die. You kuew it, and you didn't care. Of all the phenomena of illness that surprised you most. You looked Death in the face and were uot afraid. Yoa simply didn't care. Over the mantel was the picture of a schoolboy of twelve years, school-book and school-bucket in hand, with a white wool hat on his head, and iu his freckled face the liold, frank, confident look of ro bust youth. 1 luring all the years and all the changes you had cherished the tit le picture, a souvenir of the days when the world was young to you and none of the illusions were lost. Xow that you were so very ill that even Slio grew profoundly anxious you looked from the bed, waved a feeble hand at the little (sty over the niautol and whisiter- ed, "You haveu't got much farther to go, little boy." Kxcept for Her, you ditln t iiiind it at all. She would grieve you kuew that and for her sake you would keep up the fight; otherwise it did not at all mutter to you whether the long lane turned or not. For you had reached middle age, aim the illusions wei gone. Perhaps yours had been a hard ife, unusually hard. Perhaps in everything which yon had under taken it had cost you twice as much toil and persistence to succeed as it had seemed to cost other men. Perhaps yoa had come to realize that you were one of those men with whom Fortune deals grudg- ngly, one of those whom Hone de ceives and Success laughs at, one of those who always has wind and wave against him, and who never by any sort of chance fiiidd hiuueelf in league with Luck. It may have been that when you were a boy you read much, thought more solierly than most boys do, and di earned dreams of the future. It may have beeu the ambition ol your life to work mantuiiy until you could possess a nomiietence and then, made independent ol Poverty, devote every taleut aud euergy to the public service. Public life allured you. To tie a Tribune of the People, leading them npward and onward, cheered by their applause, made happy by the blessings of those whom your life-work elevated and benefited, seemed to you the noblest task you could undertake. To prepare for it, you liecaiue a lawyer. In no other proiession win id yon hoe to earn an income so qnickly and so surely . iou buried yourself in law books. 1 lie midnight lamp never failed to find you at study. Year in and year out, you worked by day aud stud led by night. You began with pitifully small fees. Often you rode all day, to and from Justice a C ourt, to earn the half of five dollars. The entire labor of your first year at the Bar gained yon but two hundred and twelve dollars. You lived in the country, walked three miles to your oflice, ate a cold dinner which yon bad brought with yon, and waited for clients, eager for work. Year after year pa,ted. So wrapped up were you iu study, lalwr, anxiety, ambition, that fire side pleasures were almost unknown to you, aud yon lost ah, the Bad ness of it now! th holy joys of home life with your children while they were still children. Ten years passed then three more; and then the goal was reach- against vou; but you went into the country precincts, you ssike to the people iu the village streets, at the country school grounds, at the cross roads stores. Wherever fifteen or twenty would aiwemble,, there you would speak to them. The politicians laughed at you, hut when youroppoueut came home from Washington to meet you in debate before the mass meetings throughout the district, lo! the peo ple were with you, aud your tri umph at the polls was uuprecedeut ed iu your dtate. But there came a change. The Democratic Party, which in convention after convention had adopted your platform, suddeuly changed front and dcuounced those principles. What were you to dot You decided that principles were dearer than party and you stood by your principle. The people of your district in dorsed you nine counties out of eleven giving you overwhelming majorities. In the other two conn lies the swindlers who had charge of the Inillot Isixes simply stuffed them with ballots enough to beat you; and so the people were robbetl of representation. As to you, the dream of your boyhiMsl was at au end. The object aimed at in thirteen years of steady, life-alsorbing toil wns forever put v yond your reach. It was hard, ftasu't ilf You tried again, at another elec tion. The result was the same. Once more you tried; result as lie- fore, l ou apieiilel to t ougress. I loth lMiliiical parties hated you and your creed, and Republicans voted with I leuiiM-nits to bar you out. You asked for a hearing on the floor of the House. It was denied vou--for the first time iu the his tory of your country. Then, exhausted and dishearten ed, you quit the hopeless contest. 1 our enemies shouted witn great joy, and anna Don ll res una street parades you were burned In elligy a disgraced and ruined man. You almost wished that you were dead. How near you came to los ing your reason and your life in the bitter grief of that crushing disap pointment She knows She only. Then you thought it time to quit, and you quit swallowing as l-i you could the bitter pill of failure and the puian of unconditional surrender. V What was left! Could yon try your hand at any thing elsi-t Oh, yes, you could go to work and wake more money. Aud you did so. It was the only thing you could do. V ith disgusting facility you could heap thousand Umiii thou sand. In the court house you could name your own fees; you could choose your own cases. Ou the lecture platform you could name yoor pwu price, and you could earn as much or as little as you would. Four or five years passed, and the .'lie thing of which you had enough was money. Rut the old hunger gnawed at yw;r f.eart You were not happy. You longed to do something wort h ier of what w as liesi in your nature. You hinged to tight a good fight for justice, for lietter laws, for benefi cent institutions, for conditions that are more equitable, for a fairer distribution of the bounties and blessings of nature aud human in dustry. Yon scorned the mere get ting of money. You wanted to be usetul, to lie a jsiwer for good, to Is" a leader of public opinion, to the end that the best principles and the best ideals might prevail. You esisM-ially wanted to reach the young, aud to lay your hands geutly upon the lines of their thought and conviction, so that ing after you were gone from earth you would live in the hruve, putri- tic endeavor of men whose efforts for good iniL'ht lie haiiiiicr than our own. Then you shut the world out of your life, buried yourself to all but the very luw, called around you me serene companionship of books, breathed the atmosphere of t lie nist, entered into the lives, the holies, the struggles, the sufferings of the sublime reformers to w hose courage and sacrifice we owe all hat makes the world tolerable all hat gives us liberty of person, of conscience, ol speecn. And then, full of the inspiration drawn from the lives of these grand pioneers of liiimau progress, you reached out for the long idle pen, and you wrote. Ah, how your Heart uid lorgci its own troubles in the work! You wrote and wrote aud wrote many a night till it seemed that yon alone of all the world was awake, the peu all too slow to follow the burning thought Many a time yon reeled with fatigue as you rose trom me de.sk where six hours or eight, of whose flight you had been uncon scions, had sped; many a time the page was blotted with teal's, and vou could uot go ou. Always, always, yoursoui was in the jien, and you wrote uo word that did not come from ine neari. At length the task was finished, aud your book (blue -penciled hor ribly by a critic who aiierwara be came a lunatic) came lortli. What really had you hoped! Had vou dared to tielieve that the world would lie fair toauy book bearing your discredited name! Had you faintly Ureal lieu some pathetic prayer that the tierce abuse which had beaten npon you as a political leader might spare your IxKikf Poor fisil. you: Political hat ml never forget and never fonrives. The very college professors who had examined your manuscript for the publishers, and who had, in writiug, pronounced your nistory "the best since Macauley," caught the contagiou ol attack, and they assailed you as savagely in the re views as though you were a cross between Jack Cade aud Marat Your book was damned iuconti ncntly, successfully aud eternally damned. But you must needs try again Perhaps you would nave belie luck next time. So once more it was toil at the desk ; once more there was the rap ture of composition; once more the long, shining lines of thought swept before your mental vision, and you were caught into and swept away in the eostacy of creative composi tion. Surely the world would be inter ested tfiia time; surely the work aud the workman would be recog nized. appreciated. 'ot so. The world had no more of welcome for the second book than for the first. Yet you tried once more. The third failed like the second, and fourth completed the melan choly list. . And so it Iiapciis that, in the cry midst ol this new ambition ind new work, disease smites you low II. No wonder vou grow weary. No wonder you feel indifferent. 1 he way has Insmi long, and it has lice n rugged, aud at last you ne tired. Yon look just a little contemptu ously iu the very face of Death, and you say in your thought, "I'm yours sooner or later; take me now f you like. " And to the little boy on the man tel you lift your eye and whisper, with a half mocking smile, "Not much farther now, little boy." Yes, it all depended upon w lieth- er tliH'iii.'laminution would extend o and settle upon the intestines. You knew that well enough; and when the nurse applied hot cloth after hot cloth, hour after hour, for welve hours, you knew what it meant. It was a pitched battle be tween death and the nurse. Well, the nurse won. The fever aud the pain stood at bay; the exhausted nurse staggered off to take her rest ; and when morii- ng broke you knew that you would get well. Were you glad! Not particularly so. Just what you had lo live lor was not so clear to you as it used to be. You came back to life without regret and without enthusiasm. The souir of the birds is sweet. but not sweeter than before. The rustle of the wind iu the trees, the ireathof Ihe Mowers, the lazy Is-au- ty of the distant landscape, the splendor of summer evening, sun sets and rising moons all tbei-e are glorious to you, but not mo.e so than they ever were. THE SPELUNU EXAMINATION. Convalescent' Yes, convalescent. Ou Her account you are glad. She would have missed you.

At McCnuley's Drug Store. Th i: day of the sis-lling rxaiuiua tiou hail come at last, aud Johuuy wem io school iu a very nervous Inline or uuml. He had worked hard and faith fully, and had studied his little blue siielliug book uutll it seemed lhat he kuew it all. There was to lie a prize for the child paaong the best examination. It was a lieautifully hound hook of stories. Johnny did so want the hook, and uow at lust the dty had come. kach scholar was given a strip of paper ruled off iuto twenty five lines. The leat her was to read the word aud give three minutes to write it iu. There were to be tweu ty five words. Johuuy tried his pen, aud, be cause it did uot write easily, he raised his band aud asked for a new one. It was giveu him, aud, with ins little loreiieau drawn into a scowl, he w rote the heading and theu waited for the teacher to give out the word. He Usiked arouud, and he was so excited that nothing seemed natural. The clock looked as though it was laughing at him, and the big insurance calendar seemed twice as large as before. "Kunning."' The teacher pro nounced the word slowly and dis tinctly. Johuuy knew how to siiell that all right, and be quickly wrote it down. It seemed an age liefore the teacher gave out the next word. Johuuy soou got used to waiting, aud wheu the twenty-fifth, the last word, was alsmt to ls given, he knew he had all of them right so far. If only he could get the last one! "Business," said the teacher. Poor Johnny was heart broken! It was the one word iu the whole Issik that be could uot rcuieiulier. Did the "i" come Is-fore the "s" or was it "b u s i n e s s!" For the life of him he couldn't tell. Ho be sat there looking blankly at the calendar, slowly reading the adver tisement. Suddenly a Hush came to his cheeks, and with a quick glance at his teacher, he wrote down the word correctly. 1 lie next day ou which the prize was to be giveu Johnny went to school with a sorry little heart un der his jacket. Kveu the thought of the prize could not make him feel happy. After the morning exercises, the teacher stood up to give the prize. "The spelling of the class has pleased me greatly," she said. "It was a hard examination, and I did not exiiect any oue to have them all right; but one Isiy did have them all right, and another had all right but one. I am going to give the prize to Johnny Fairbanks, as he had every one right. Tommy .(ones had all except oue." Then she started to pass the book to Johnny. Johuuy was very white and seemed to lie trying to say something. Finally he burst out: "(live it to Tommy. I cheated, Miss II aw ley. I couldn't think J how to spell that lust word, and 1 was looking at tlie calendar there, aud the word was on it: and I didn't say anything alsmt it, but wrote it down just as fast as I could." Poor Johnny! if he hadn't looked at the calendar he might have had the prizo; for without that last word he had as many as Tommy. But the teacher had given the book to Tommy as be had asked. That evening at the supper table Johnny told all alsmt it to his fath er and mother. His father said, "I had rather see you mau enough to own np than to see yon win a thousand siielling prizes.'' So John ny went to lied happy. Two days later his joy was made complete bv a handsome book of stories, prettier thau the prize book Ou the first page his father hail written, "To take the place of the spelling prize which your houosty made you give up."
