MONDAYS Ball Game.

The game between the printers and
hardware men Monday was fraught
with fun and perspiration. The boys
worked hard for five innings, and then,
having seen all the sport they cared
for, left off-the score standing is to s,
in favor of the men of iron.
William Patrick Gulick did the um-
pire act with his usual grace and ur-
banity, winning a generous amount Of
praise for his efforts to please.
An accident occurred during the pro.
gress of the game that cast a shade Of
gloom over the proceedings. A foa
ball struck a by-stander in the cheek
knocking him almost insensible. i
was feared that serious injury NIGH
result, but the man is improving.

resolution concerning the pastor pre-
sented before the council. The follow
ing resolution was acted upon:
WHEREAS, In view of the impropri-
cites of Rev. w. A Welsher, pastor of
the Baptist church at Abilene, Kansas,
in the cases of women whose testimony
was before the council, in regard to at
tempted liberties with their persons;
Resolved, That he lacks the qualifi-
cations of minister of the gospel as
laid down by Paul in his letter to Tim
othy-1st Tim. III, Z.

As there was not unanimous vote
in its favor. The council did not make
finding on the matter: but as matter
of record the yeas and nays on it were
placed in the minutes, sixteen voting
for the resolution and fifteen against it;
after which the minority offered res
olution.
By vote of the majority they were re-
quested to place their resolution on
record beside the majority resolution.
The following is the resolution of the
minority:
Resolved, That it is the sense of the
fifteen minority that after giving our
prayerful considerations to the serious
charges presented by certain aggrieved
members of the Abilene church and
one lady not a member, affecting the
moral character of Rev. DR.. W. A.
Welsher as well as the rebuttal testi-
mouy of the accused, that We do not
believe him guilty as charged, but we
do believe DR.. w. A. Welsher, by his
indiscretions in his associations with
these aggrieved parties, acted so as to
render his actions suspicious. And be
it further the sense of this minority
that we earnestly request DR.. w. A.
Welsher to be more careful OF his &C
lions in the future; and finally we rec
ommend that the church be more care
! full in the future of their pastors repu-
tation.

THE BAPTIST COUNCIL.
The Four Days Session Completed
Majority and Minority Reports
Handed In-The Findings of the
Reyered Brethren in Full.

The council continued its session FIJI
day night without coming to an end of
the Investigation of Mr.. Welsher's
actions.
The evidence already in was summed
up by Rev. Peters ana Rev. Churchill
in lengthy addresses in which they re-
hearsed the whole matter from the be-
ginning. The council was in executive
session Saturday, considering the mat
ter and formulating findings, etc.
In the opening sessions, DR.. Hiscox's
Star Book on Baptist councils was
made the standard of authority to
which all differences of opinion as to
procedure should be referred.
The following are the findings of the
council as furnished by the secretary:
In the opening sessions the follow
ing resolutions were adopted:
WHEREAS, the council is now duly
organized and ready for business.
Resolved, That all persons except
Baptists and those Immediately con-
cerned in the matter under considera-
tioD be and are hereby requested to re-
tire from the further deliberations OF
the council.
Resolved, That since the church, at
the request of the aggrieved parties,
invited certain persons to sit in the
council, we therefore declare it as in
our view an open council.
By motion the council proceeded to
take up the points named in the call in
the order named.
By motion, Rev. I. r. Peters, pastor
of First Baptist church, of Topeka,
was appointed to conduct the case for
the aggrieved parties, and announced
the order of a mutual council as laid
down in the Star Book Up 104, sec 8, 4,
and 81 and called the evidence of the
aggrieved.
Mr.. A. S. Churchill, counsel of the
defense, from Omaha, Neb., brought
| in evidence in reply, followed by the
reioinder of the affiant, and the de.
fences rejoinder to that rejoinder.
After eight long sessions the eyi'
dence was closed, without arguing thu
testimony the case was submitted Il
the council which went into an al
night executive session, and on Satur
day forenoon returned the following

SIDE BY SIDE.

Father and Son Are Laid to Rest il
the Same Grave-The Funeral Of
Adam and Fred Rohrig one of the
Largest Ever Known in Abilene.
Tuesday at $3.50 a. m. the funeral ser.
vices of Adam and Fred Rohrig were
held at the home on Vine street. The
yards and street near the residence
were filled by the immense crowd gath
cred to show sympathy with the heart
broken family. The fire department
and Oddfellows were in attendance in
full uniform, and the merchants and
citizeLs of the city turned out with one
accord to honor the dead.
The services were conducted by Rev.
DR.. J. l.. McKeehan, who, in tender,
touching accents, spoke of the upright
lives of the deceased, and strove by all
possible words of consolation to soften
to the weeping relatives the mysterious
action of providence which had snatched
from them their loved ones. An ear
nest prayer for divine strength to aid
the wife and children was offered, the
choir sang Were going home" and
then the procession to the cemetery
was formed in this order: Minister,
Gazette band, Hose Company No. =,
hearse bearing Frederick Rohrig, guard
of honor, Hook and Ladder Company,
hearse bearing Adam Rohrig, Oddfel-
lows, friends, citizens. Over one hun
dred carriages were in the procession,
which was one of the longest that evec
wendell its way to our city of the dead.
At the cemetery the audience stood
beneath the fierce July rays and listened
to the last ritual ceremonies as the
father and son were laid side by side in
the same grave to sleep together, as
they had died together, until the res
direction morn.
The last chapter in this sorrOwful &C
cident is ended. A happy home, in
which the family ties were more close
Iy bound than the world often sees, is
made desolate andthe sorrowing rela-
tives must take up the weary round of
life again.
The mother is today somewhat more
composed than yesterday and now that
the final ordeal is past will no doubt
regain her strength. Loving friends
and neighbors have done all in their
power to assist the family in their be-
Time will be long in effac-
ing the memory of the most sorrOwful
happening that Abilene has ever seen.

The County Convention.

The Republican Central Committee
met this afternoon and changed the
time of holding the Republican county
primaries and convention to one week
earlier. They will be held August 3Oth
and September 1st, respectively. The

change by the coincidence of the for

Ho, For the Races!

Bills for the summer meeting OF the
Fair Association have been issued and
the date fixed upon as August 22-24.
A most fattering outlook is indicated.
The purses are most liberal, amount
ing to $500. Entrance to purse races
close August 18th; to stake races,
August 9Th; to running races, August
goth.
The Association has a most excellent
ground, plenty of water and shade and
the best and fastest mile track in the
State. Our people and sportsmen are
assured of three days of the best racing
ever seen in central Kansas.
The management has been to great
expense in building the track and max
ing improvements and it is hoped that
the people of Dickinson and adjoining
counties will turn out en- ndsse and
show their appreciation of the associa-
tion's efforts to eclipse all former un-
