Cumberland Presbyterian General Assembly.


KANSAS CITY, May 21.-At the fifth
days session of the Cumberland Pres
byterian general assembly. the action
of the board of ministerial relief in pro-
viding for the Office of corresponding
secretary and appointing Rev. ]. H.
Miller, of Evansville, to this position,
was endorsed and the work of the
board heartily commended.
The overture of two Illinois PreSby-
terians asking for the formation of a
new synod was denied.
The report on missions as adopted,
endorses the call of the board of mis-
sions for 100000 during the year and
provides for the raising of this amount
by apportioning iG among the pTeSby-
teTies. The receipts for the past year
show gain of but $500 over those of
the preceding year, while the expendi-
lures are much greater, leaving a debt
of Sc, 900. In view of this and of the
magnitude of the work and the need of
reinforcements in Japan and Mexico
and the pressing claims of the work at
home, the members of the church are
urged TO a larger liberality.
An able report on Sabbath observance
was read and was to be discussed in d
public meeting to be held Wednesday
evening. DR.. W. +. Crafts, of New
York, is invited to address the assem-
bly, ut that time.

RALEIGH, n. c., May 21.-One of
the most extraordinary cases on record
was instituted in the superior court
this evening by w. T. Hodge, citizen
of this county. 1t seems that about
twenty years ago a statute was enact
ed requiring all railroads operating in
the state to make annual reports of
business to the governor, ana failure
TO make such reports made the delin-
qpent liable to penalty of $500 which
should go to any citizen who would sue
for it. The statute has never been OBJ
served by the railroads and Hodge in
stituted suit this evening against forty
railroads to get the penalty. If he is
Successful he will gain an aggregate
amount of $40, 900.

The Elact;on.

When the official returns are all in
they will show that Harrison Kelly
was elected to congress, although by
the smallest vote, ever perhaps cast
in the district. Farmers seemed to
feel no interest in the election and
stayed at their work. Hardly half Of
the republican voters intowns and
cities cared enough about it to go.to the
polls. AS it was known that the demo-
Gratis had no candidate, Kelly's election
was regarded as foregone conclusion.
The opposition of the union labor folks
amounted to very little. 1t may be
that they polled larger per cent of
their votes than did the republicans,
but what have they accomplished by
voting for man who is now, we under
stand, citizen of Texas, and a light
weight at that?The rank and
file of that rarity merely
followed the lead Of one or possibly two
leaders who would deliver them all
body and breeches TO the devil for
stipulated sum in dollars and cents.
If Overmyre had run, they would have
sent out word to their followers to vote
for him instead of Heast on-perhaps
It would depend entirely on how much
.'tin" the democratic candidate or his
friends would put up. If the afore-
said leader could get sufficient Doodle
he would lead his party over to the
democratic side with a wonderful shov
of patriotism and love for the down
trodden people. If not he would do
just as he did, vote them for dummy
just TO keep them well in hand, that is
herded for future delivery when the
market should be stronger.
Samuel Howard died suddenly yes

the room was entered and Howard
found to be dead. Heart disease was
the cause. he has no relatives in this
