in the last issue of the PENINSULA METH
oDIaT concerning Cecil county churches:
Mt. Pleasant and Row landsy Vile, Fred
f. McKinsey, pastor, held their fourth
quarterly Conference, January 10. Seven
teen converts reported. Sunday Schools
closed for the winter; but against the
protest of the pastor, who says it seems
impossible to continue the school, after
the leaves begin to fall. A new and
beautiful organ has been purchased for
Mt Pleasant; some improvements have
been made OH the church; benevolences
are well mp; and pastoral work has been
carefully attended to, as is shown by two
hundred visits in ten mouths in country
place Tue people thoroughly appreciate
Bro. MckInsey and his work, and showed
this by presenting him with welltilled
purse, during Christmas Holidays.
Colora, near Mt. Pleasant, where
Brother Charles E Stead, has been
laboring, has had gracious revival, in
which about fifty have prolessed faith in
Christ
In Mt. Pleasant quarterly conference.
board of trustees was appointed to
purchase the Barrager Chapel. The
members of the board are, John w. Nc
Cullough, E. L. Browne, Frank Foster,
and John Watson; Bro. John w. McCul-
Tough was appointed chairman.
On motion Of VIM. Weldon, our Confer
ence authorities were requested to asso-
ciate Colora with Rowlandsville and Mt.
Pleasant charge, next year.
Rising Sun, Isaac Jewell, pastor, has
had three years of unprecedented success
The membership has almost doubled; &
new parsonage has been built aud almost
entirely paid for; new seats have been
put in the Sunday School room; benevo
lences all greatly advanced, and the sum
of $5927, has been raised by him during
the three years.
The Conference showed a high apprecia-
tion OF Bro. Jewell's work by asking for
his return the fourth year.
This closes my quarterly visits in Cecil
county, for this Conference year; and |
take this occasion to bear testimony, to
the faithfulness of pastors and people III
visions for the pastors and the benevolent
of the Church.

Some under, some over some seen and some
hidden.

To steer his craft straight, and keep her sea-
worthy.
Storms cruel and ptiless sweep DER our decks,
RendiLg mast and high pennon rom the place

We wonder and pray. doubt, weep, and ask when
Will this roushness pass DER? or when pass the
line
Through this gloom to a more CLASSY sea and
pleasant weather?
mot yet" says the Father, mysterious and
good
"Thest trials must make you better soldiers and
sailors,
For Christian PROJECTIONS my standard and
measure,
And after while through the storm and the
tempest
Your barque shall glide safely into sunshine
and peace
Only one mont h ago at this writing,
This very year, the beginning seemed full OF
promise,
Its genial skies and balmy air, we thought
We're iraught with better things Tor US at Wood
lawn.
Alas we know ot-Go1 did,-iever stricken
Lay the father, sons and daughter four in num-
Der,
These but one the Father kind restored.
While we reJolced our words OF joy became
thrice
Frozen ice upon our lips, because one was not,
God took her.
Delirium hurled from its throne her sweet rea-
son,
And for days knew not what she said, yet we
hoped
For recovery. So kind physician and friends
did their best.
But sudden. wool shoi. unawares. came the angel,
Gods Messenger, while the clock marked eleven
at night
Whispered something and obedience her motto at
all times
Complied so Katie, dear Katie. went home.
Our hearts are bowed so sudden came the grief,
And while we think OF hours gone by, fun, trOlic,
song and mirth,
Don't say, tits strange, sorrow, now we've laid
her in the tomb.
Its neither crime, to let the pent up passions OF
the soul
Run loose Tor Jesus wept' and we're His fol-

We bless her memory for its sweetness, and face
more redOent
Than the flowers, bestrewn within her coflned
form
That even DEATH the fell destroyer failed

For in death she only looked an angel resting.
The day oil burial came, a day in which
Ger sky was spread the tasseled pail ofmourning
As though in sympathy with our sombre feelings,
And the wind in solemn music sighed
Its loving, weeping requiem.
No more in life we'll meet her, and with
This alb 'ect feeling laid her down to rest
Beside her sister Lena, Il companion gone be-
fore.
Katie we bid thee good night" for night it is to

But in a happier cline bid US good morning.

Principle, January 30th 1899.
Editor Of the Whig:-The Storeksepers and
many other citizens of this place have been
greatly annoyed by the profane language of
certain persons in the stores here. The
country towns are frequented by the men
of the town especially during the evenings.
Ladies and others who visit the stores have
often been shocked by the loud and profane
talk of some of the loafers.

rrampIed to Death by a Herd

RAwLINs, WyO., February 16.-The
Independence Rock, the most noted
land mark of the overland route to
California was the scene of remark
able fatality three days ago. Daniel
Stockwell came to the territory from
Ohio last August and purchased a
small ranch on Buffalo creek near
the rock. For four weeks StockwelI
has had as guests, Albert and George
Avery, young men whose parents re-
side in youngstown, Ohio. Last
Thursday, while out hunting, on
nearing the independence Rock, they
noticed some cattle forming a large
circle, of which they were in the CEN
ire. StOckwell fearing stam-
pede, councilled flight to hide
pendence Rex and told the
boys to drop their guns and
run for their lives. Stockwell RAPIDLY
got ahead Of them and on reaching the
rock was Mortified on looking back to
find the young men in their despera-
ton had made a stand against the
maddened cattle, and discharged their
firearms in their faces. The foremost
beasts in the lead attempted to change
their course, but those behind forced
them over the luckless, young men.
The entire herd of at least five hun
dred head, trampled over the bodies
of the Averys. Their remains were
wholly unacceptable, StOckwell has
notified the parents Of the dead men.

Kick Over the Insurance Dept.

ST. LOUIS, February 16.-The Re-
public this morning says: 1t trans
pired late last night that the legisla-
tive committee which have been here
several days to investigate the state
insurance department, have discov-
cred that the department, not only
under the present commissioner, Wal
ter Carr, but also under his predeces-
sor, Mr.. Williams, has been admin
istered in very extravaganza, if not
corrupt, manner; that unduly high
salaries and exorbitant expenses have
been paid; that the insolvent insur-
ance companies where the affairs are
in charge of the department have &C
tually been looted. Commissioner
Carr Indignantly denies these charges
and maintains that the department
under his administration has been
conducted in a business-like way, and
as to insolvent companies, says their
affairs were in the hands Of the court
and he simply obeyed the order of the
court. The committee will present
their report to the legislature next
week. 1t is also stated that the COM
mittee will probably recommend the
adjustment of the board of under
writers of this city as being against
the interest of the insurers.

reception to be given by Sir R. D.

of the quarrel between Sir Robert and
Prince Bismarck, much comment has
been caused here by his announce

members of the imperial family at the
reception will be a mark Of unusual
patronage.

BELvIDERE, Ills, Feb. ia eli
max was reached in the war against
saloon-keepers yesterday, when the
grand jury returned indictments
against every liquor man in the city.
Nearly eighty indictments were
found for selling liquors to minors,
and to habitual drunkards. The sa-
lOOn-keepers already have a $4,000
damage suit on their hands and the
fact OF their being compelled to pay
$1,000 annual license, together with
the expenses of law suits will about
absorb all their profits. The temper
ance people feel happy in conse-
quence.
