preached In Bishop chapel, Brooklyn, +. D. It

where he has been preaching and ecturing for the

and composed mainly OF colored people, with here
and there red son and daughter OF the forest.

An Important Decision.

At the term of the United States
circuit court now in session at Leav.
enw orth, there was heard before Judges
Miller and Dillon the case of Joseph
Nickerson against the board of county
commissioners of Chase county, OIL
demurrer to the bill Of complaint. The
action was brought by stakeholder
of the A., +. and 5. f. Railroad COM
pany, enjoining the collection of taxes
levied against that company, on the
ground that the various taxes enjOincd
were void, and OH the further ground
that the property of the company had
been assessed at an unreasonable value
and was made to bear larger portion
of taxation than any other taxpayers
Judge II. NJ. Ruggles, of Emporia
argued for the defendants that the ac-
ton of the board of county commits
sioners was final and could not be en-
auircd into-that no relief could he
given: and in defence of his position
made an elaborate argument; but
Judge Dillon, Ill delivering the opinion
of the court. stated emphatically that
where, in the valuation of property,
the board had Disseminated against
the TAXPAYER, and assessed his proper
t. for more than its value, or made il
bear an undue proportion of the bur,
den of taxation, that, in proper case
made, a court of equity would inter
fere and cnjoin the collection of such
excess.
This is a vigorous and healthy de-
cision, and while it will be the means
of giving railroads possessed of land
grants complete protection under the
law, il will ut the same time afford a
like protection to every taxpayer

For the EAGLE.
A Sunday at Oxford.

DEAR EAGLE:-Last Sabbath was
an cventful day in Oxford. The Pres
byterian Society having completed a
new house of worship and called a
pastor, the Rev. S. d. Fleming, invited
the Prisbyterians to meet at that place
to install their pastor and asst in
dedicating their church. On Satur-
day evening Mr.. Fleming passed a
very credible examination in phiIoso-
phv, theology. church history, and
other studies. The house was well
filled, and the people listened atten-
lively to every question and answer.
This congregation appeared to be
proud of their pastor as well they may.
The services of ordination and Install
alton took place on Sabbath afternoon.
The Rev. A. ii. Lackcy, of Peabody,
preached the sermon. The Rev. j. +.
Harscn gave the charge to the pastor,
and the Rev. j. Z. Platter, the charge
to the people. The house was dcdica-
ted in the evening. The building cost
in the neighborhood Of 81 400, is aneat
wooden structure 28x40 feet, and was
dedicated free of debt, the amount
necessary for its completion having
been raised previous to the day of ded'
ication. This, we believe, is the first
house dedicated and Mr.. Fleming is
the first pastor installed Oh the west
side of the Arkansas river.

A Strong Man.

The rumor that Auditor Wilder was
a candidate for the republican nominal
ton for governor was entirely baseless.
He is not and never has been q candi-
date for the place, although it cannot
be doubted for an instant that he would
make AN able, energetic and honest ex-
ecutive. 1t is announced by several
papers that Mr.. Wilder will be before
the republican state convention for re-
nomination to his present office. OF
course. bare consent to be candidate
will insure him the place on the ticket.
lie is one of the strongest and purest
men in the state, and in no sense a pol
itician. His name will add great
strength to the republican ticket for
several reasons besides his personal
popularity. His noble stand in favor
of honesty and reform last year will
commend bin to the voters Of every
shade of opinion. lie will be reelected
by $4,000 majority.--Pdola Spirit.

Our Future Sea Port.

A delegation of Kansas City bust
ness men. recently visited Galveston
for the purpose of consulting with her
business men and the railroad men OF
Texas, with view Of opening up a
trade between the northwest and Cal
weston, and through that city with
Europe. AS result of that visit,
quite a large quantity of grain was
sent down last week for direct ship
ment to the other side of the big wa
tiers. The rates secured was satisfac-
tory. This is of the greatest impor-
tancc to the future of the Arkansas
valley. The same distance down this
valley from Wichita. as from here to
Kansas City, would put us at point
on the gulfroad three hundred miles
nearer Galveston than is Kansas City.
Galveston will be the future enterprise
of this valley, and We are under obi
cations to the business men of Kan
sas City for SO early demonstrating
the practicability of that which has
been pc. idea OF ours ever since our
settlement i'm the valley.

bly, before dispensing will authorize
Mcmahon 10 govern some months and
probably a year without the assembly,

Churning.

In the Mich Zeitung, published in
Dantzig, Germany, the following con-
illusions are arrived at from expert
ments made by Mr.. Peterson to deter
mine the causes affecting the yield of
butter, viz:
The churning whole milk is, as a
rule little known. 1t is, however, often
resorted to in Holstein. where cheese
is not made. The general mode of pro-
cedurc is self evident; instead of being
skinned, when it is ripe enough, the
whole of the milk is worked in the
churn.
All the experiments have made to
determine which method yields the
most butter, have been in favor OF
churning the whole milk, when other
circumstances have been equal.
To obtain the greatest amount of
butter, in churning cream, il 10 neces-
sary,
lst. To be in a position to control
the temperature at all times Of the year.
I'd. To be able always to perform the
skimming at the right time.
Sd. Such daily supply of milk as
will yield enough cream as to allow it
to be churned before its yield Of butter
is damaged by standing too long.
These conditions cannot, be complied
With in all diaries. and the less SO the
smaller the establishment. The great

or four cows, anu che yield of butter
is often considerable lcs.ened by the
cream standing too long. owing TO the
quantity not being sufficient 10 churn.
In churnipg whole milk l always
proceed as follows:
The evening milk of one day and the
morning milk of the next are churned
together. The former is placed in q
tub directly after milking, and the lat
ter added to il the next morning. In
summer the milk is allowed TO stand,
at most. two feet high in the tub: in
the winter about two and half feet.
In very hot weather the morning milk
is cooled down 10 sixteen or twenty
degrees R.. before il is added to the
evening milk. Under these circum-
stances the milk is nearly always ripe
for churning when the evening milk
has stood thirty-six and the morning
hours. The temperature
of the milk when being churned should
be from one-half TO onc-fourth H.,
warmer than when cream is churned.
The churning itself should be hur-
ried as little as possible. since the but
ter globules being more widely separ-
ated in the milk than in cream, rather
more time is needed for them to col
lect.
In churning whole milk there is an
increase in labor. owing to the necss-
sity for more frequent Cummings. but
this is far outweighed by the other
resulting from it.

that Wichita would feel honored in

can Emporia. The counties of Green
