80 MILES DISAPPEAR.

Thirty miles of country is big
thing TO disappear, but this distance
has been dropped out between Kan
sas City and Chicago. How it hap
pened Is thus figured out: The Chi
cago, Santa Fe & California Railway
ID completed between Kansas City
and Chicago, and the distance be-
tw cen the two cities is only 458 miles
measuring from Union Depot. Kan
sas City, to Dearborn Station, Chica-
20. THIS is exactly thirty miles less
than by any of the old lines, so you
have to travel thirty miles less, your
freight has to be hauled thirty miles
less, aud practically the Santa Fe has
made thirty miles disappear. A few
years at this rate and Kansas will be
i'm New England.

NOT THE TRUE REASON.

A gentleman from Mississippi,
whose opinion is quoted with evident
approval in the New York Times,
SAYS of the recent trouble at Walahak:
"The Negroes and whites had been
living peaceably together until the
opening of the last presidential cam
paign. The bloodthirsty speeches OF
Sherman, Foraker and Ingalls, were
distributed among the Negroes, and
their whole souls became embittered
against their democratic neighbors.
If this is the whole cause of the
trouble we are afraid that there i:
likely to be a good deal more of dis
order at the south. There are very
many citizens in the north, and no
few in the south, who synpathiz'
with the ideas Of Senator Sherman oI
this point, and they do not propos
to be muzzled. They have a right t
protest against injustice, against tn
notification of the constitution tina
has enabled the south to elect on
president, and that aims to give cor
troll of the nation to its least progress
i've and enlightened section. So lon
a. elections are a sham and fraud i
the south, just so long will the mort
protest.
Let the south deal justly with il

colored citizens and there will be no
fear of massacre or race war. The
Negroes would rather live in peace
than expose themselves to the merci-
less vengence Of the southern whites,
and the south has no better friends
than such men as Sherman and For
aker and Ingalls,. 1t is not the
"bloodthirsty speeches of northern
statesmen, but the bloodthirsty acts
of outhern rowdies that threaten the
peace of the south. Capital.

Shiloh Church.

Rev. ]. A. Stewart, pastor of the
Shiloh Baptist church, is in quiet
way doing a grand work towards the
moral and spiritual advancement of
the race. He believes and teaches
that morality and religion are insep-
arably connected; and that religion
without morality is not worth a pinch
of snuff. On last Sunday. morning
he preached an interesting sermon
from Psalm 1868. Theme, "God,
the source of all good" He briefly
outlined the work of the church for
the year ank said: "Truly the Lord
hath done great things for US whereof
We are glad"
The church has been made larger
and otherwise renovated and presents
very neat appearance. They raisec
during the year over thirteen hun
dred dollars. The Sunday school i
we'll attended and has the persona
oversight of the pastor. Those wh'
do not believe that our young peopl'
can behave themselves in church, lie
them visit Elder Stewards church.

Punctuality is one of the chief vir.
tues of a religious life. Nothing 90
mars religious rvice asa lack Of
punctuality. With the pastor nYe
minutes late, chorister five minutes
late ushers fiye minutes late, meme
bers little late, and it is only aques-
ton of time v hen that church VIII
have room to let." The church'o
motto should be-"Punctuality In oil
thinne."
