DIR BrickmRn's Sermon Sunday Night.
DIR. Arthur o. Brlckman, an eminent
divine Of the church of the New Jerusa-
lem, or Swedenborgs, as it is probably
better known here, preached one of the
most eloquent sermons at the Methodist
church Sunday evening that has
ever been listened to ia this
city, particularly from his stand
point Of the text from which he
prraehed. 1t is welI-known fact that
the people of this denomination spirit
ualize the scriptures and make the Ian
guage fguratiye. and not literal, as
most other Christian believers do This
was the position taken by
Dr. Brickman in treating of
the text from which he
preached on the above occasion, the
pool of Bethesda and the five porches
in which the impotent visitors lay.
These five porches were considered by
the speaker TO be the FIVE senses possessed
by man, namely: Seeing, hearing, tast-
ing, smelling, feeling, and the Pool of
Bethesda was that part of mans nature
Into which the infirmities which linger-
ed in these porches descended for heal
ing and cleansing. The figures and
SMILES cited were beautiful and inter
estIng TO the highest degree, and the SER
mon throughout was immensely en-
loyed.

EDS. NEwE:-Word was brought To
this city at about 5 80 . m last evening
that Mr.. Hornbarger, of Emporia, had
been killed on South Fork. about four
miles from here. Messrs Camp6sll,
Cooley, DR.. Walsh and myself started
Immediately tor the scene Of the sect
dent. We found MT. HorIbarger st
at the residence of Mr. Jesse Mann,
near whose place the accident
occurred. II seems that the team Mr..
Fl. was driving became frightened in the
lane near Mann's house and ran
do ! :iic road AT fearful rate, and col
lided with a barbed wire fence. The
team was thrown down and became en-
tangled in the wire, the buggy upset
with Mr.. r. under it, AID strand Of
wire became wrapped around his neck
and the feet of one of the horses, which
kicked badly, every move of the horse
causing the wire to saw and cut Mr..
HIS neck. Assistance soon arrived, and
the victim of the accident was carried
to the houseIn an unconscious condition.
His neck and face are cut and Iaccrated
terribly. He was properly cared for by
DR.. Walch, who thinks that he will re-
cover. At first he thought Mr.. II. was
injured internally. Mr. Hornberger,,s
relatives were dispatched to but at this
writing no word has been received from
them. C. II. CARswELL-

TUESDAY, April :


Mrs. Hiram Kirk, living about eight
miles north of Americas on what is
known as Pennsylvania avenue, met with
quite severe accident yesterday AFTER
noon, the full particulars Of which we
were unable to learn. As near ss we
can get at the facts It seems as if Mrs.
Kirk was engaged in burning of some
trash in the front yard. when her CLOTH
ing caught fire and was almost entirely
burnt from her. DR.. A. B. Royal was
summoned Immediately. who says.her
condition Is indeed critical.
Yesterday afternoon between three and
foIr o'clock, the seven year old daugh-
ter of ]. 8. SteadmAn, living some five
or six miles north of Americas
was scalded by the overturning Of q
kettle of boiling water, the contents OF
which struck her about the neck and
breast, running down all over her. She
was an unusually bright and intelligent
child. Her recovery is said to be rather
improbably. Il seems that this Is an
era of accidents.
Mrs. L. a. Hill kindly furnishes as
with the following fact in regard to the
business done at the Americas postohice;
Stamps, cards &c. sold from
Jan. 1. 1888. to March l, 1888. 1928 IA
