Louis and San Francisco road, from Wash
ington, Sunday evening He was accom-
panied by Henry Blackstone, railway en-
gineer; W. L. McLcnnan, chief Of warrants
in the treasury Office, and J. w. Griffin, bond
clerk in the Office OF the comptroller Of the
currency. Their ear was taken by 4 special
engine over the Santa Fe to Newton, theLcc
west over the main line of the Santa Fe 10
the Atlantic & Pacific. and then over the Cal
ifornia Southern Pacific to San Francisco.
The object of the trip is to inspect certain
roads that have been granted lands by the
Government. and to settle with the South.
ern Pacific for moneys claimed by the Gov
ernmcnt, or failing in that. to bring suit in
the L. s. Court of California against said
road The matter being complicated one
these experts have been dispatched TO look
the mstter up. They will also act as a COM
mission, and on their return make a re-
port on the resources. developments and
prospects OF the new countries opened up
by the road. mentioned. Mr.. French. at ST.
Louis. stated that the Atlantic & Pacific
would be built from Vinita across the Indian
Territory to connection at Albuquerque,

The following is a synopsis of sermon
preached by the Rev. DR.. DeLew, last We'd
nesday night, in the German NJ. E. Church,
in the German language:
TEXT: John %, xxv.-''Except I shall see
in his hands the print Of the nails, and put
my finger in the print Of the nails. and
thrust my hand into his side, will not be-
lieve."
The Doctor first showed very clearly how
natural it was for Thomas to doubt, from the
fact that nature alone proves absolutely moth
ing OF future life. Reason and religion,
without divine revelation. leaves US in the
dark There is great deal in the mysteries
Of the world to prove q probability, but moth
ing positive of future life. Forgetting for
q moment that We ever heard of Christ. let
US question nature in regard to future life.
We all have in our breast desire for i'm
il painful. This is proof of possibility
Of future life, else God would not have given
US such feelings and desires. But in the dark
hours Of our existence, when the desire for
life IL not strong, we do not even feel the
possibility.
We have the traditions Of the common
faith in the resurrection. There is no people
that does not, in some way or other, believe
in life beyond the grave where the soul may
be at rest. But the common faith is not in
fallibie. Possibly it may be beautiful dream
at least we cannot depend on it.
Further, We have in nature many analogies
to suggest u future life. The resurrection Of
the flowers, is no proof Of the immortality
Of the soul.
Again, in answer TO the question, "Shall
We live again:'' the history of man in the
past and future, answers. No! Six thousand
years have passed, one hundred and fifty gen.
erations have gone to dust and not single
individual has returned to bring us tidings
Of that "unknown country" Aud looking
in the future, the greatest thinkers tell us
that our earth leaves marks that the race Of
man is fast approaching its end. Yesterday
We came, to-day We are, tomorrow we shall
have been. Thus we will find at least the Sc
renity of death.
Now, looking at it in this light, without a
scarcely a probability of a future life. Thus
nature alone teaches us absolutely nothing
in regard to immortality. Hence, we do not
wonder ut the declaration OF Thomas. But.
we have also in that declaration proof for
the dogma Of the Christian resurrection.
The resurrection of Christ is the foundation
OF His Church. The resurrection Of Christ
proves the Immortality Of the soul in all its
power. Through Christ and through Him
alone We learn that there is a future life-we
are immortal When our bodies shall have
been consumed by the worms, VIC will see
God. The resurrection of Christ is the boun-
dairy line between Christianity and the world
faith and infidelity. "Blesscd are they who
do not see and yet believe
In CONCLUSION would say that in giving
this sketch am conscious that am not do
ing justice to the Doctor. In order to be ap-
preciated fully, his sermon must be read in
full or heard from his own lips.

TEE KNIGHTS TeMPLsR.

The Masonic order is broth eyhood whose
fratcrnai relations and harmony have been
the admiration of the world. In all of its
degrees and grades, the beauty Of self sacri-
Zee and brothery consideration stand out
prominently, inviting emulation al mankind
ever, where and Ia ali relations of life. The
knig hi, Tenp'ar Of he Wichita Jurisdiction
held one OF its conclayes last Thursday, for
the purpose of advancing other brothers 10
that desirable and honorable degree. After
the work OF the lodge room, the members re-
paired to the Occidental hotel, where they
met their wives aud sweethearts, to enjoy a
line supper in the dining room of that house.
The tables were arranged in the form Of
a cross. ana beautifully decorated with flag
and emblcms of the noble order. Seventy
ladies and gentlemen, number OF whom
Were from Wellington and III Dorado, rem
dcrrd the hour one of delight and pleasure.
Every dish was garni>hcd and every tongue
loosened, SO that as Il festive occasion it has
seldom been cqua.ed and never been sur
passed in this city. The collation. ended. the
appearance Of Prof. Fcro's band was The zig
ma for pleasant hours of dancing and soc al

NEXT SATURDAY Winds HER Up.

Saturday is the last day in which malt, vi
nous or spurious liquors can be legally bought
or sold for the purposes Of good time or the
stomach's sake. The shutters of the saloons
go up at midnight never to be taken down.
| boys, have suthen!'' Will be out of the
question next Monday morning. The cooler
will be given over to rats and decay, and the
tur5ed in neglect, dust and spider webs be-
hind the courtroom door. Gentlemen. this
is sober fact in view of which we sci mnly
| suggest that this is country of majOrities
| and in obeying the rule OF the majority lies
| all our greatness, is the very genius Of self
government. Everybody in town may in
dulge in Iii Ii old time Saturday in which
all the people Of the country may come and
join, aud no doubt there will be fun, but re-
member, after the headaches OF Sunday the
whole tang must '.dry up And why not !:
Whisky is no good aud costs heap Of money
aud where's the objection to giving it up:
Tobacco and coffee, We are free TO confess,
are more hurtful to humanity than beer or
native wines; still, where beer and wine are
sold it is almost impossible TO keep strong
drink out But TOR whisky the simple aud
| beneficial beverages would not have
been denied, but as they are Ia
| booed, let's make the most Of it.
| and like good citizens obey the laws in
beer as well as in spirits. We know that
| agents from wholesale houses in Missouri
are around making arrangements to supply
| all who desire. regularly with small quanti-
ties Of "a prime article" and that schemes
have been concocted whereby local agents
are to whip the devil around the stump, but
who wants the ''name without the game
Let the Pukcs OH the Big Muddy gulp down
their own liquid devil and we well keep our
money and buy up q mule and go to raising
live stock. build "a railroad. or start five per
cent. mortgage company. IL several of the
big hearted men OF this town act upon this
advice they will have more filthy lucrc than
they can otherwise invest.

the ringing il was not possible 10 locate the
fire, and as no flames could be seen, it was
