Tne ceremony of laying the corner stone of
the new chapel yesterday morning, was delay-
ed from till nearly 10 o'clock, and by that
time the rain was pouring dismally upon an
assemblage of patient umbrellas undergoing ia
rapid disintegration about the edges The
shower held off long enough to attract and de-
tain the crowd and then fell upon the Just and
the unjust Unfortunately 1t was accord
ingly decided to lay the corner stone at once
and adjourn to the Baptist church for the re-
naming exercises. Ex-Governor Coburn ae-s
cordingly came to the front of the platform,
holding in his hand box containing the fol-
lowing articles: i..s ,to r,s 4, s.t..s,, - A..
