KANSAS CHURCHES.

Wellington Monitor: The members
of the Congregational church well
coined home their pastor, Frank V.
Stevens and wife from their summer va
cation trip, with reception at the resi-
dence of Mr.. G. E. Hitchcock.
The house of bishops of the Episco-
pal church meets in New York city,
October 2. Bishop Vail and Bishop
Thomas will attend. In the mean time
Bishop Vail and wife will visit relatives
in Philadelphia and Bishop Thomas and
wife in Boston.
Topeka Capital: A good assemblage
of people gathered at the corner of
Huntoon and Polk streets to witness
the laying of the corner stone of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church. After
singing the pastor, Neal ID. johnson,
delivered an address in which he re-
ferred to the interest he had taken in
the enterprise and the cordial and
hearty sympathy he felt towards this
enterprise. DR.. McCabe referred with
emphasis to the fact of the prevailing
unity and harmony among ministers
and churches in this city, and he ex-
pressed his qualification that during
the past twenty years he had done
somewhat by precept and example to
bring about the present desirable con,
dition of affairs.

yet in but fair working condition. Tho
management expects to run the works
up to it's full capacity as soon as they
are satisfied that all of the machinery
is in good working condition. The
product of the works at this time Is OF
course no criterion as to what may be
expected in the near future: As it ,s'
however, all concerned are highly de-
lighted at the output, as it is very
flattering indication of what is in store
for them when running at their full ca
pacity. The sight presented at the
works is busy one. Wagon after wag-
on deposits its load Of cane at the works
daily, and barrel after barrel OF sugar
is being made after their loads are cut
into chips and put through the dt-
fusion process. There is indeed at the
present time no telling tho number OF
pounds of sugar that will be made this
season. The grade is substantially the
same as last year and equally as pure

fhIrty-Five Thousand People on
Thursday.
TOPEKA, KAN, September 21.-Over 3d.
900 tickets were taken up at the gate Thurs
day. This did not include the compliment
taries, the cattlemen, workmen and several
hundred others who remained on the grounds
over night, which would raise the figure to
85,OCO. It is 1900 more than the best day
last year, and is believed to be the largest
attendance ever known at fair in Kansas.
Of this number it is estimated that 10000
were from over the state, 5000 we're from
Shawnee county and 5000 from the city of
Topeka. Excursion trains came in on all
the railroads and all were crowded. In the
vicinity of the exposition hall, agricultural
hall, the cattle and horse stables and the
race track it was almost SOLID mass Of
people all day long. It was another lovely
day, the attractions were numerous, the
programme splendid, it was great success
in every respect.
Hon. Jeremiah Rusk, secretary of agri-
culture, arrived from St. Joseph, and in
company with President Sims and Hon. T.
/. BOnebrake spent an afternoon on the fair
grounds. A parade of the cattle and horses
was given on the inside speed ring, which
was reviewed by Secretary Rusk. He was
very much pleased with the show of cattle,
which he declared was as fine as he had ever
seen. He also visited the agricultural dis
play and spoke very highly of it. He was
very much interested in the races, and spent
an hour or two in the judges stand. Mr..
Rusk and party left here for Liberal to in
spect the sugar factory.

BIG KAN 5A5 FIRE.

Loss Of Life and Other Casualties
Two Fire Chiefs Hurt.
KANSAS CRY, KAN, September N.-The
Kansas City Dessicating and Refining works
are totally destroyed by fire. The loss is
placed at $4,000: insurance, $4,000.
The company is corporation composed
of Boston and Kansas City capitalists,
Charles Francis Adams president and C. F.
Morse, manager.
Two employees were seriously hurt, receiv-
ing probable fatal injuries.
During the most exciting time of the fire,
when Chief Hale, of Kansas City, Mo-, was
directing his men from the roof of the en-
CINE house, some one carelessly removed
the ladder by which he had assembled, and
when the roof of the engine house gave evil
dence of its being about to fall in, he could
not descend. Finally he was forced to take
the hose to make the descent. He had slid
down about half way, when the flames from
above melted it and he fell to the ground, q
distance of about fifteen feet. He was but
but slightly injured. Chief Hill, of the
Kansas City, Kan, department, was thrown
from his horse upon the curb and badly
bruised. His injuries are not fatal.

THE CRONIN CASE.

English Spies Upon the Cian-na-
Gael.
CHICAGO, September 20.-The appearance
of LeCaron in Chicago is followed by a
multitude of developments, some certain
and some shady.
It is stated that LeCaron's daughter has
been in correspondence with young man
of Chicago for long time, and in her letters
to him has given perio 1ical information,
which is now in the hands of the prosecution
in the Cronin murder case.
These letters connect many men with the
Cronin affair not heretofore mentioned; and
seem to give two lines of impression. They
are, that Cronin had got possession of papers
from the English detectives which they
would 60 to any extreme to get back, even
to killing. That he got these papers by a
pretenss of becoming their paid help in
matters connected with the Clan-na-Gael.
The other, that these Britishers have knowl-
edge, and vii! be placed on the stand by the
prosecution, to show the conspiracy against
Cronin by the present prisoners and others,
which resulted in his murder.

BosroN. Mass, September ia body of
colored men met in Meionson hall, pursuant
to 0 call inviting ga conference of leading
colored men to assist in the organization of
a movement to secure from the political
party of our afiliation q fair share in its re-
sponsibilities, opportunities and honors. ("
William b. Dupree, of Boston, presided.
Resolutions were adopted declaring that
they ask for no favors that are withheld
from other citizens, or to which they are not
entitled, but 1--WE do ask for the civil and
political homoeenity which invades no
mans private social rights, which does lie
at the foundation of national unity; we
contend for the contact with our white
brethren which elevates and does not de-
grade either them or us. We do not believe
that all our grievances can be cured by pol
itics, and while We urge the exercise of the
right of suffrage and all other rights cour-
ageously, firmly and discreetly, we counsel
against entering politics as a livelihood in
lieu of entering other fields of industry; we
emphasize the importance of acquiring
homes, lands and personal property. and
argue the necessity of education. Wealth
AMI equipment, mental moral and indus
trial, are the key to the situation. We con-
denim the brutal outrages committed upon
our people in the south. We warn our coun-
trymen that if the violence done women and
children, the burning of schools and
churches, the destruction of homes and the
murder of defenseless men are not pre-
vented by the strong arm of the law, the
patience, long sufferance and forbearance,
char acteristic of our people, will be goaded
in hate and to a striking out in self defense.
We pray to be permitted to live within the
law, but if we are driven to live otherwise
the blame will not be ours"

STOCK AND FARM.

Dighton journal: A Lane county
farmer who will SOW less than one hun
dred acres of wheat this fall is hard to
find.
Paola Times: Fall pasturage will be
excellent. The recent rains have been
conducive to the growth of the same.
The timothy, clover and blue grass
fields look as fresh and green as they
do in the spring. This, linked with a
good supply of corn, will make plenty
of fat cattle and hogs for an early mar
ket. Stock raisers have right to feel
thankful for the promising outlook.
Usage City People: Farmers who
thought it would not pay to raise to-
matoes at 20 cents bushel deliv-
cred at the canning factory, are be-
ginning to change their minds. This
has proved about their best paying crop
this year. They get the money for it,
too, at time when there is no other
crop that can be proftably placed on
the market. There will probably be a
big tomato crop planted next year in
this vicinity.
The Liberal Leader tells what Joseph
Fuest and John 81. Prentice have &C.
complished on claims since the spring
of 1887. They started with "A head of
cattle and very little money, but togeth-
er and in partnership they worked hard,
and the following shows to-day the re-
suit of their labor: They own four
quarter sections of land of which three
quarters are fenced. They own two
nice and comfortable dwelling houses,
we'll, with pump and windmill, WE'LL
lighted chicken house and large,
roomy barn; also. building for cheese
making (added this year. where Speers,
who is an experienced cheese maker,
prepares from Is to 2Opounds of cheese

Long Lost Mine Found.

A Long Lost Mine Found.
MONTEREY, CAL, September 25.-Intelli-
gence was brought to town by one of the
Foreman boys, who live near the head Of
Carmel river, that the long lost mine known
by early settlers as the "Maria Komau
mine" had been found. He had often been
told how this Indian woman used to 90
away and in the course of few days return
with large amounts of silver ore, which she
would assay herself at the mine. Where the
mine was located had always been a mys-
terry. The mine, if accounts are correct, is
located near the head of Carmel river, about
fifteen miles from Monterey, and was found
by Mr.. Foreman while deer hunting. He
also found the old furnaces and instruments
with which Maria used to crush ore. The
news has created great excitem ent here, and
several parties are making preparations to
60 to the mine.

testing settlers upon the Usage Indian lands

KANSAS RAILROADS.

Holton Recorder: The railroads run
ming through jackson county are
assessed this year as follows, per mile
The Central Branch, $500; the Rock
Island, $4,000; The K. c., W. & N. w.,
$4,000; The Kansas Central, 800.
The city council of Coffeyville has
granted the right-ot-way to the Kan
sas City & Pacific division of the Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas railway to the
city limits. Work will at once COM
mence on the two extensions southwest
from that city, one through Oklahoma
and to some point in Texas. This will
give to Cofeyville nine miles of rail-
way in active operation, and will open
for the Missouri, Kansas & Texas the
markets and shipping of the southwest.
Kansas City journal: The superin-
tendent Of buildings learned that the
Santa Fe road is erecting a frame
building on the company's property in
West Kansas City without having taken
out the Decessary permit. The man in
charge of the work said he did not know
a permit was necessary, as it was simply
an addition to the freight building. AS
the little addition is 500 fee. hong and
is within the fire limits, the superin-
tendent Of buildings concluded that the
plea of ignorance was very gauzy in
this particular case, and he had war
rant issued for the arrest of the person
in charge of the work. The company
will also be compelled, before going on
with the work, to secure the consent OF
all the property owners in the blocks in
which the building is located, and then
will have to make application for per-
NIT before the advisory board. IF q
permit is refused, the building 90 far
as completed, will have to be torn
down.

A Dam Bursts,

WEsTcHEsrER, PA, September 20.-The
breast of the large dam belonging to the
Kennebec Ice company, of Wilmington,
Del. located at Hbernia, this county,
burst and q tremendous amount of water
rushed down the Brandywine, overlooking
the banks and sweeping everything before
it. The large bridge which crosses the
Brandywine just below the dam was swept
away and several frame buildings were car
ried down to Coatsville. Several of the
streets of Coatsville are four feet under
water. The people living along the stream
were warned by the sound of rushing waters
and escaped to the hills. So far as heard
from no lives have been lost. The flood has
made the creek road impossible. In places
the meadows are covered to the depth Of
eight and ten feet. The break was caused
by heavy fall of rain.

Opposed t. Canadian Labor.
Buffalo, September 25.-At meeting of
the Central Labor union, the question of
prohibiting Canadian Labor in this city
came up and was discussed at some length.
1t was claimed that every morning a LARGE
numoer of Canadians come over to this CITY
to work, and they work for IS cents a day less
than the American laborera The names of
some sixteen or eighteen Canadians, who
came across by the ferry every day, had
been furnished the United States district
attorney but nothing had been done in the
matter. The Canadians continued to come
over there to work. The sentiment of the
meeting was practically unanimous, and 4
motion to appoint q committee to seek adj
vice in regard to the alien labor was carried
with a rush.

Planting Regrets,

fIdntInS regrets.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, September 25.-The
Attest from the Butler county, Kansas,
lynching is that the Edwards, man and wife,
with whom the Boomer child was left, and
who was missing, have both been twice sus-
pended by the neck until nearly dead, to
make them disclose what they knew of the
child. A very close search Of the country
for three miles around had been made with
out finding a trace of the little 3-year-old
girl.
The prisoners were finally taken to the
county Jail, and the building war barricaded
to defend it from the mob.
After all this the missing child was found
alive and well sitting on the door step of a
farm house near Rosalia. Where It had
been all the time was a mystery. It Is toe
young to speak plainly and can give no
account of itself. It is supposed that it was
kidnapped and returned when it was found
what excitement its disappearance was
causing.
When the news of finding of the child
was brought to the city. the mob could not
be made to believe its truth until the child
itself was produced and was recognized By
the mother as her own. Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
wards were then released. They are still
suffering from the effects of their harsh
treatment. The marks of the rope where it
had cut into their necks are plainly visible
and indicate the suffering they must have
endured. An attempt will be made to
prosecute the leaders of the mob.

covered that the recent lottery ordinance
was printed and the official seal of the city

he would allow it to be come law by With
holding his signature.
