THE news comes that Sitting Bull, the
Sioux chief, has been killed some more.
Learning that he was about to depart for
the Bad Lands, where all of the bad In
dams are supposed to be congregated, a
squad of Indian police was sent out to
arrest him. This was accomplished, but
his followers attempted to rescue him
and in the fight which resulted, the
chief, his son, Grow Foot, six other In
dams AMI five policemen were killed.
The cavalry that was supporting the pc +
lice came up by this time and the Indi-
ans fed, leaving their women and chill
dren captives. 1t seems that the admin
ist,ation is determined to get up an In
dian war whether or no.

WEST END CHURCH.
Exercises Of Dedication Yesterday
Afternoon.

The dedication of the new West End
Methodist church took place yesterday after
noon, the exercises opening at 2 O'Clock. The
church is small but very tasteful and COM
Portable and is a credit to the minister Rev.
MIR. Pratt and to his congregation.
Presiding Elder Jones had charge of the
services which were opened With singing of
Coronation by the choir. Rev. E o Thayer
of Biddeford then invoked the divine bless
ing. Mr.. Jones read the ritual for the de-
dicaton of churches aud a congregational
hymn was sung, after which Rev. A. w.
Pottle of Saccarappa read the first lesson of
Scriptures. The second was read by Rev. r.
FL Kimball; another hymn read by j. r.
Clymer, ID. D., was then sung after which
fervent prayer was offered by Rev. A. S.
Ladd of Gardiner.
Mr.. Jones then introduced the preacher of
the day, Rev DR.. Bates of Boston. DIR.
Bates announced his text Kings, &C and Z.
"The iron did swim and he put out his hand
and took it." The preacher drew the lesson
from this that God would do his part, he
would make the iron to rise from the bottom
ana float; but If anything lasting is to be
done man must do his part too, he must
put out his hand and take the preferred aid.
God never fails to furnish the aid. Man
fails to grasp the opportunity and then says
there was no opportunity. He spoke of the
great growth of the church during his own
life time and said that those who thought
the best days Of the church had come were
mistaken. He thought that it would 90 on
and prosper very much more in the years to
come.
Following the sermon, Mr.. Pratt made
brief address concerning the cost of the
church. He said it had cost them $1,000, of
which 5000 still remained unpaid, He agreed
to assume 800 Of it himself and made a
strong appeal for help In lifting the rest.
DR.. Bates also made strong appeal and ex-
hibited genuine mite" found in the ruins
of the Temple Of Jerusalem as a type of what
was desired. Persons in the congregation
subscribed 1926 on the spot. After sin giDg
hymn, the benediction was pronounced by
Rev. d. B. Randall and the assembly dis
solved until evening.
In the evening DR.. Bates delivered his lee
ture Fourteen Thousand Miles in an
Hour" and the remainder of the necessary
sum to wipe out the debt was raised.
