PRAYING FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL the
request of Rev. Mr.. Gordon, Rev. Messrs.
Umsted of the Presbyterian Church and
Rigg of the Methodist Church, joined in
prayer service with members of the differ
ent denominations at st. Peters Chapel
yesterday morning for the life of our
stricken President. After the formal
opening services conducted by the Rector,
the Rev. Mr.. Rigg offered an earnest
prayer for the restoration of President
Garfield emphasizing especially submis-
sion to the Divine will. He was followed
by Mr.. Umsted in an address cOmprehen-
sive- in thought, choice in language and
sympathetic in tone. He paid high
tribute to the ability, character and de-
pertinent of our Chief Executive; be-
lieved his efforts at national reform espe-
cially that of the civil service of the
greatest Importance at this juncture of our
history, and the spectacle of IL nation on
its knees imploring for his life was IL strik-
ing exhibition of the indoctrination of
Christianity among our people. lie con-
sidered the suflerings of President Gar
field in some sense VicariOus to meet the
dangers to our institutions in the growing
tendencies Of communism, nihilism and
other evils growing with our foreign popu-
lation and inimical to our institutions. and
thought it proper that the people should
bow in humiliation before God and i'm
plOre the preservation of his life as the
elect one to battle with the tide of evil.
After the reading of selection of scrip
ture and prayer Mr.. Gordon followed in a
| short address of more than usual earnest
ness and pathOs, setting forth the value to
the Nation in such a life as that of JAS A.
Garfield as manifested in his humility as a
citizen, ability rs a statesman and dignity
as Christian. In the appeals in the
prayers for his life there were hearty re-
sponses of amen and altogether the Oc-
casiOn was one of great seriousness and
deep sincerity.

THE condition of President Garfield for
the past several days has not been so good
as was expected and desired when we last
went to press. 1t looked then as if he
were convaleseing very favorably. 1t
became apparent that he mHst be moved
from Washington. Accordingly, prepara-
items were made in specially fitted up car
and a car track laid to the doors OF the
houses at either end of the route, and
yesterday morning at 6 o'clock, the train
left Washington for Long Branch, reaching
there at 1.20 P. NJ At some points on the
road the train made a mile minute.
The President, for one in his weak condi-
ton. stood the ride without any apparent
discomfort. Many persons gathered at
the different stations along the route, but
made no demonstrations, some standing
with uncovered heads, Upon leaving the
Executive Mansion the president appeared
to enjoy the scenery. He noticed several
of the employees standing on the front OF
the mansion, and waved his hand to them,

A SURVEYORS EXPERIENCE IN A
CYCLONE,

A Surveyor Of the Minneapolis and St.
Paul R. R, writes: ION Friday, the day
of the storm, we were surveying a pre-.
liminsry branch running q westerly
course from the main line, when We
saw large black cloud approaching.
We ntarted for camp, and were within
about three miles of it, when the cloud
in the center turned green and purple;
lightning flashed, and heavy thundsr
rolled. About a mile from camp the
heavens looked liked an immense cloud
of dust. We got in just in time to
uEhitCh the horses from the wagon
when the storm struck us. Seven of us
tried to hold the tent, but failed. We
were scattered in short time iD all d.
rections. Henry Wales was thrown
against tree, end had his left side
smashed in. The wind hurled me thro'
the tent as it fell. l tried to hold on to
a tree, but in vain, and was thrown about
four rods against more trees, and this,
time stuck, while the air was filed
with sticks and iron flying in every di.
reCtion. One of Finley's boys was about
sixty rods north of us with a large herd
of cattle. He was carried into the air
and cast to the ground, a lifeless lump of
humanity. When found the only arti.
Gle of dress he had on was his shirt col.
lar. His fathers house was entirely de.
A mile southeast of US lived a
family named Oliver. The father, moth.
er, and four children were killed, and
another child fatally injured. The
heavy sills of a bridge near us were
picked up and driven into the ground
from four to six feet. Ducks, prairie
chickens, and all kinds of birds were
found skinned as for pot pie. Our out
fit is totally destroyed. The tents level,
the transit, fags, grips, and clothing are
all gone. The wind tore the harness off
the horse into shreds. One Of the
horses was killed and another badly
crippled" ."-S. Paul Pioneer Press.
