THE ENGINEERS STILL FIRM.
Chief Arthur Says There Will be No
 RnNRdnvvn

BackdOWn.
 CHICAGO, March 11.-Chief Arthur to- night speaking of the Burlington strike said: As to the situation having narrowed down to freeze out, it remains to be seen sustain the present bankrupt policy of the
 management of the road-a bankrupt policy with not sufficient cause. For our part, we are confident that the Brotherhood can stand it longer than the road will be, willing to sanction. Our advices are that but thirty per cent. of the usual local business is being done and no through business. The Bur- lington members of the Brotherhood will be sustained and supported by the entire organ- ization as long as the men wish to require help. Not single man of the Brotherhood has deserted and I predict that none will. A clause in our rules demands the dismissal of any engineer found intoxicated, whether on or off duty, and that he be reported to the officers of the road as an unsafe man. An- other clause provides that when @ man ap- plies for membership he must be examined by committee of three, and unless he is sn engineer of one or more years practical eI- perience, not addicted to the use of liquors and man of otherwise good character, he will not be accepted. During the past four- teen years not single Brotherhood engineer has ever deserted his engine without using every possible precaution to save the lives of his passengers and the public well know how
 many have died at the post of duty. In all this the great public has been benefited dur ing the past twenty y-fve years. I have only to say that the nerve of these men has and will he demonstrated in ttfs fsO; sfTika

MISSION MARyELS.
Why Dr.. Jalsea Became ! Mission

0Ays
Some one asked DR.. Judson in later life
whether ne had been moro influenced by
faith than love in going to Burmah. He
paused moment, and then replied:
Ihere was IN me at that time little Of
either; but in thinking of what did influ-
uence me, l remember time in the
woods OF Andover Seminary when I was
almost disheartened. Everything looked
dark. No one had gone out from this
country. The way was not open. The
field was far distant, and in an unhealthy
climate. knew not what to do. All at
once Christ's '1ast command seemed to
come to my heart directly from heaven.
1 could doubt no longer, but determined
on the spot to obey it at all hazards, for
the sake OF Pleasing tie Lord s5ffesns Christ.
And then added these memorable words:
"1f the Lord wants you for missionaries,
he will send that word home to your
hearts. II he does so, yom neglect at
your feyi7."

CURRENT COMMENT.
Live Questions Stripped Of Useless
Verbiage.
TOPEKA capital" TALK,

THE administration is bound to have a
solid south for 1883, if judicious distribu-
ton of patronage at the hands of Mr..
Carlisle will secure it. 1t will be needed.
One of president Cleveland's favorite
dishes is picked sleeps tongues, eaten
just before he goes to bed. The wool
growers have sleeps tongue in pickle
for him, and he will get taste of it dur
ing the next campaign.
Mr.. ToMPKINs, of Ohio, asserts that
Mr.. Lamar only practiced as a lawyer
for three years, and then in an obscure
Georgia town where only COW cases were
tried. If this assertion be true, Mr..
Lamar on the supreme bench would be
an undisputed authority upon oleomarga-
rine.
TOPEKA COMMONWEALTH" THOUGHTS.
Mr.. THoEBE seems to have a strong
case against speaker Carlisle. But pos
session is nine points of the law, and be-
sides it is Democratic congress that will
pass upon Mr.. Thoebe's claims.
JAY GOULD, it appears, prefers to let
them try that Kansas Pacific bond case on
the dog. He, therefore, has gone to
Egypt and left the poor old Russell Sage
here for the courts to experiment on.
SENATOR INGALLS, promises to give the
British lions tail twist. While you do
it, Mr.. Senator, get President Cleveland
to pat him on the head, just as he did in
his message. We would like to see the
result, and think it would be instructive
to the president.
KANSAS CITY journal" KERNELS.
If anyone will read Mr.. Sherman's
speech and then Mr.. Voorhees,, they will
see just why one was listened to by states
men and why the other was not. One was
argument and the other q stump speech.
Mr.. THoEBE has produced some rather
startling evidence of rotten election meth
DDS in Mr.. Carlisle's district. The idea
of men being allowed to vote the morning
after election day in order to pull their
candidate out of hole is something quite
new.
Mr.. LAMAR's letter to Mr.. Cleveland,
resigning his Office as secretary of the in
terror, was evidently written for publica-
ton, as was also Mr.. Cleveland's reply.
Both letters are intended to affect the &C
ton of the senate upon Mr.. Lamar's ap-
pointment to the supreme bench, and both
exhibit panied surprise that the appoint
ment has not yet been confirmed

FAR16ER4 INSTITUTE.
Not Only Guaranteed, But Two
Professors from the State Agri-
cultural College VIII be
Present.

The following letter from Prof Failyer
chemist at the State Agricultural College
tells about the help which that institution
will afford:
STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
MANHATTAN, KAN, Jan. 6. 1888.
Mr.. I. L. McGarvie, Wa-Keeney, Kan,
DEAR SR:-Replying to yours of Dec.
27: We will send two men to assist in
the institute, as you request. Since we
were there two years ago, we do not send
more than two men now. You or those
who worked in the last institute will know
all about how to work up the meetings,
without suggestions from me. If you can
get ready by Feb. 2 or 3, this time will
suit us.
Please let me know.
Truly yours,
Ct. 81. FALYER.
The institute is to be held, as the fol-
lowing will show conclusively:
FARMERS INSTITUTE.
A Farmers Institute will be held in
Wa-Keeney, commencing February 2, and
lasting three days.
Word has been received that two pro-
fessors from the agricultural college will
be in attendance at this meeting.
A program will be announced in due
time.
All are cordially invited to attend this
institute.
J. M. WEIGH,
Chairman of Institute Permanent Organ
zation.
IL. McGARvIE, Vice Pres.
A. l.. FUsoN, Secretary.
There it is. What the World has
been promising its readers in the way of a
farmers institute has been acted upon Of
fcially. We can not urge with too much
earnestness the necessity of our farmers
attending in body this institute. As
we have said before, farmers Institutes
are of no less Importance than teachers
institutes. If one farmer can teach an
other how, when and where to plant corn
so as to raise even one extra ear to the
acre, he is public benefactor. The same
fact holds good throughout the entire
Lilo VI CIOp SloWAuS. 4>o iOoS ILL PoA SeAAAo
is the possible diffusion of practical
knowledge in livestock growing, hortl-
culture and forestry.
1t is to be hoped that there will be
general response on the part of those who
are to be appointed on the program COM
mittee to lead out in the handling of va
rious subjects. 1t is also of equal impor-
lance that every attendant of the insti-
tute have his mind made up to participate
in the discussion of at least one topic
with which he is familiar.
The World hurls back into the teeth
OF the utterers the fragrant insult which
has been Haunted at our old farmers, that
they do not know how to farm or are too
thriftless to try to do so. They are the
very ones of all the people on earth, who
know the conditions and capacities of
western Kansas. They should see to
forecasting the policy to be pursued, at
least by themselves. To-day the crying
need among the agricultural class in
western Kansas is not the doing of more
or harder work, but determination to
develop their farms by not ignoring COM
pletely the demands of nature!

The Heathen'S Faith.

Work of Missions, by the Rev. A. A. PfanstiehL
A missionary was called to the death
bed OF heather convert-a young girl Of
eighteen summers. She fastened at the
summons, and found the beautiful girl
already in the dark valley of death, but
her countenance was bright. Seeing the
missionary, she said, with feeble voice:
"Come near; let me take your hand.
Dear missionary, I'm dying; but I'm SO
happy! Jesus is my savior. I'll soon see
Him! And, dear friend, when I get to
heaven the first thing I'll do will be to go
before the great white throne, bow before
the Savior, and lay my crown down at
His feet; and then I'll ask Him to let me
90 and stand at the gate of heaven, where
I'll watch for your coming; and when you
come I'll take your hand, and lead you
before the throne, and I'll say: Dear
Jesus, here is the missionary who was
willing to leave home and friends to tell
poor heather girl like me of a Savior.
Place very bright crown upon her head
and then we'll spend all eternity together
in love and praise And thus she died
in JOY. Shall not all Gods children be so
seif-sacrifcing with their money, talents,
prayers, work, and lives, that redeemed
souls will be waiting and watching for
them at the beautiful gate?

The aspect of the years that approach
us is as solemn as it is full of mystery;
and the weight of evil against which we
have to contend is increasing, like the let

One of the Sunday schools in Cleveland,
O., has thought of placing each of its
Sunday school classes in direct commu-
nication with some particular station, and
thus arouse their interest more keenly in
the work. This is an excellent idea, and
would be of great benefit to any Mission
airy Society in creating an interest in the
cause of Missions and in increasing the
collections.
Robert Mofat, the great missionary to
Africa, in an address before the London
Missionary Society, said, concerning the
translation of the New Testament for the
heather among whom he worked: 81
have known individuals to come hun
dreds of miles to obtain copies of st. Luke
Yes, they have come, and driven sheep
before them to obtain these copies. They
did not intend to beg them, but to buy
them. And could you have beheld with
what gratitude and feeling they received
these portions of Gods word, you would
be animated more and more to go on in
the blessed work of preparing the word
of God for these benighted nations I
have known families to travel fifty or six
ty miles with their babes on their shout
ders to come and ask for thesword of God.
And why? Because they had acquired at
distance the knowledge of reading, and
they had a feeling that they ought to buy
this word, not to beg it; and have seen
them receive portions of st. Luke, and
weep over them, and clasp them to their
bosom. and shed tears of thankfulness

will spoil your books with your tears"
