Pretty Tall Swimming!

The Brainerd, Mimi, Tribune records
one of the greatest feats in swimming that
has ever come to our notice, and one per-
formed in every particular as stated below
On Tuesday last, at 1 p M. Rev. j. A.
Gilfllan, pastor of St. Pauls Episcopal
Church, at Brainerd, and formely of st.
Paurs Episcopal Church. of Duluth, started
from the railroad bridge in that town and
swan down the Mississippi, without halting
to Crow Wing village, a distance of eight
teen miles. He left the bridge exactly at 1
p. NJ, making the eighteen miles in three
hours a nd fifty minutes-or nearly five
miles per hour.
The current runs only a fraction ovoI
three miles an hour, thus requiring him to
swim nearly two miles each hour faster
than the current for nearly four hours sue
cessively He was little fatigued at the
end of his voyage, and could have gone
much further were it not that he had to
walk back, a distance of f2 miles which he
did the same evening, arriving at home
about O'Clock. A man accompanied him
in a birch-barl canoe and carried his
clothes. If this can be outdone from first
to last, in any part of the country, we
should like to hear of it.

s3g- Denver, Col, July 30. A terrible ac-
cident occurred about1 O'Clock yesterday
morning, on the Kansas Pacific Railroad,
one hundred and thirteen miles east of this
place. A westward bound passenger train,
consisting of two sleeping cars, one first
class and one second class coach, and the
baggage and express cars, ran through a
bridge over Coon creek. The eptire train
except the passenger-cars, was wrecked.
Five persons were killed outright and a
number wounded some of whom will prob
ably die.

CHAMBERsBURa CORRESPONDENCE.

CHAMBERsBURG CORRESPONDENCE.
Mr.. EDIToR--As am patron to your
interesting paper desire little space in
your columns once in while. Though
my subject may not be quite so pleasing to
many of your patrons, yet, with all they
cannot but say it is truth.
And to introduce my subject, will say
that perhaps was raised a little old fogy-
ish. But yet like old Democracy an
swered a very good purpose in its day. l
must confess that was taught to believe
the Bible was the book of God, and that
all iwho became christians by believing
the word of God should be n separate peo-
pie from the people of the world. This
may seem little strange in these days of
light and knowledge, but so / was taught.
And early teaching seems to be very i'm
pressive. say that Twas taught that the
christian should be separate from the
world, and that religious organizations
should not be composed of unregenerate
men and women. But it is not so now. A
man my be ever so pious, his qualifications
my be such that there can be no exceptions
taken, either as lawyer or a minister, but
unless he is "Mason," good loyal men,
Der of that fraternity, he can fill no Office
of any account in the church. And if he
be humble minister, he can receive no
appointments from Elderships or Confer
ences until all good "Masons" are first
supplied. Such is the visible marks of the
Beast these times. Some men cannot con-
sciously be "Masons," and because of this
he is kept out of all offices in the church
and in the Eldership or Confere noes, no
matter what his standing my be otherwise.
No house to the worship of God can be
built unless the cornerstone is laid by
the hands of some "Mason." No man
can be a member of any of our Eclesasticle
Committees, unless he is Mason" or at
least very few.
Wo! Wo! Wo y! to the Church of God,
when Masonry" instead of the love of
God rules our churches. / was always a
friend of these orders till found out these
facts from which am sufferer. B.
