BosToN, Sept. lS.-Inquiry at the
Union Pacific developes the fact that the
published story of the traffic agreement
with the st. Paul, Minneapolis & Mani
toba road by way of Duluth has no basis
in fact. President Adams while in Chi
cage did have a conference with Hill Of
the Manitoba, but it was on another mat
ter and nothing whatever was talked
about In relation to u traffic arrangement.
Adams visit to Texas was with a view to
a consideration of the old question of a
Sunset route" water and land route
which has been under consideration since
the provisions of the interstate commerce
law went into effect.
No project or scheme of any kind with
a view to changing Union Pacitic's North
western traffic are as yet under considera-
ton. The story of the union of the
San Diego Eastern Terminal company is
also without basis. In fact the Union Pa
cifc officials claim they never even heard
of the scheme and Adams is also said to
be in-the dark concerning it. The pro
iect of pushing a line to Puget Sound,
as reported from Portland, Ogn., is some
thing for the future. 1t may be secured
this year and it may not.
The Union Pacific will sooner or later,
it is stated, have its " line to that
point.
Adams is reported as saying that the
general business outlook through the
West and Northwest is SPLENDID and
the prospect for the earnings on all the
Union Pacific lines are as good ss could
be desired. The statement of the Utah
Central railroad, the new consolidation, is
made public Tor the first time. 1t shows
a surplus of earnings over all fixed charges
of $40, 267.

testified as to the facts of the assault and

Something New Promised

CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-The last edition
of the Eoeni"g Mail has a sensational
article, the substance of which is that the
attorneys for the defense in the Cronin
case have a series of letters written by the
daughter of LeCaron the British spy
from London, to her lover in Chicago.
They say they show Cronin was not killed
by Irishmen but by agents OF the British

Senator Stewart. a tall, fine looking
man with scholarly face and bearing is a
forcible and decisive speaker. He is not
given to oratorical flights, but carries con
viction from the thorough knowledge he
displays of his subject and the simplicity
and vigor Of his mode of presenting it.
He said of the subject of irrigation:
Geographically the United States is
divided into East and West. There Is no
North and South. The portion of the
country west of the 9Sth meridian re-
quires irrigation and the country ls really
divided by this meridian into an arid and
rain belt. 1t is important hat the whole
country shall know just how we in the
arid belt are situated. The people of the
East do not understand the situation.
They are decended from a race who lived
in the rainy portion OF Europe and set
tied in the rainy portion Of the United
states. The idea of irrigation is foreign
to them. The west was first peopled

to be saved" Again with more solemn tone
he repeated the question OF questions when
a voice from the assembly, in clear and dis
tinct-toues, replied: Go and pay John Viii

bic.
In North Cardinals health-inspiring woods
Lived the defendant, poor in worldly goods,
But full Of grace, an exemplary man
As ever lived since MethOdists began.
Upon acquaintance twas apparent soon
Nature denied 20 him the sense Of tune,
And though the forest there with pine are
rich,
Twas vain to him-he couldn't get the pitch.
In church he warbled with enthusiasm;
Injecting every hearer with a spaSm.
His fault was worsened by his holding on
After the other vOealsts had done,
And so in many fervent winding bout
He showed them linked sweetness long
drawn out,
And with a voice stentorian he sang
Until the dim aisles of the tar woods rang
Not with the understanding, but with spirit
As if he wished the heather world to hear it.
This made one-half the congregation shout
With laughter while the pious and devout
Were scandalized; the wicked were delighted
But all the good and sober We're ahrighted:
Once the sad preacher had shut up his book
Declined TO sing the hymn, and angry took
His seat: the ruling elder had refused
To preach, because the music was abused.
On one occasion when the Holy Ghost
Seemed brooding DER the expectant humble
host,
A member asked the brother not to sing
Lest he should on the cause 50 sacred bring
Deep ridicule, and he for once complied;
But usually he such requests denied,
Allowing, if he hoped to win the prize,
Not only must he pray, but ''vocalize."
And so WIENER it came to singing psalms
That house was filed with miserable qualms;
Until at last the suffering congregation
Had him indicated for the dissertation.
a witness being called, with lungs inflated
The manner of his singing initiated
Producing inextinguishable laughter
That shook the court house to the highest
rafter,
Convulsing Judge, spectators bar and jury,
TIL some lay down and rolled in comic fury.
This testimony wrought a quick conviction,
But on appeal it met with Introduction.
For there was no pretense that he intended
The worship to disturb; he thought he blended
Most scientifically with the rest
In short, he always did his ''level bestn
And so if he viii sing, there's no help fort;
Hischurch may discipline him, not the Court"
The prosecuting brethren went out sad
At this intelligence; it was to bad:
Not only must they hear him on the earth,
But as he was a man of Christian worth,
Sure Of salvation with a cody leaven,
They must to all eternity in Heaven,
List to that voice, which all the saints would
drown
Of smiling Linkshaw, with his harp and
crownl
But for the earthly past of this dire pest,
might one simple remedy suggest:
Induce good brother Linkshaw to embrace
The ministry and then at least his face
He must to some fresh field once in three
years
Reluctant turn, and spare the tortured
ears.

II is pleasant TO know that very many of
our churches all over the land ara rejoicing
in an ingathering of new converts. Just
here begins a new duty 1t IS not enough
that these converts be brought into the
church That is really only the beginning.
There is need that these converts, these
young Christians, be trained. For even
though the great mission Of the church is in
struu entally. TO secur' the conversion Of
sinners scarcely less important Is the work
Of the edificati1n OF the saints. In other
words, it is not enough to bring men into the
church but they ought to be trained into both
symmetry and vigor Of Christian chara ter.
The tenG ency, however, is for Us TO be con-
tent with getting converts into the church.
We are inclined TO think that then the work
Is done. And vet the fact Is that very much
remains to be done. What a large proper
ton of the members Of our churches are in
efficient They cannot be depended upon for
any service In the Judgment Of charity
they are 70 b account d as Christians, but
terests Of the Redeemer's kingdom They
give very little, and they put forth small
personal efforts. They have a name to live,
but they are dead;
One reason for this state Of things in them
is. very likely. that they were not trained
into activity on 5nelr first entrance into the
church. They were TeiOiced over as so
r,rrnl, min from The resiks Of the world
But having been gathered into the church
thew were left to take care OF themselves.
The rejoicing was warranted, but the train
ing ought to nave accompanied it.
Practically the best thing. 10 do is 10 set
these converts TO work, each according to
his capacity. There is plenty OF work to be
done In any church. There are abundant
orT,orfunities Of usefulness everywhere. Re
I!ci0rs activity need by no means be con-
f1ed TO distinctively religious meetings
There Is call for tine use Of talents of every
sort in Christian service.
What 2 great gain it viii be FOR the church
of Christ in cur land if the thousands WHO
.-+iy,e members shall b. trained into habits
If effective usefulness! Let them be so
trained Therefore let pastors and church
ofTic rs and all older Christians realize their
ye.oonsibiity and address themselves to the
work. Messenger
