party win evor be successful in accomplish

nrst place. bodies of men, when they seek
10 unite, are foreign to each other in their
interests, sympathies aud characteristics.
They cannot and will not work harmoul-
Ously for this reason. The Grange is a new
political organization. yet II has done more
toward shaping legislation and securing lust
laws than the Farmers alliance ever will.
Oar order canot be drawn into the alliance

aloof from all political parties and thereby

RevIyAI of am did Church Scandal at Bur
...u. Bngton.

BURLINGTON, Ia, Dec. 1.-THE scan
dal In which Rev. Euclid L. Rogers,
pastor OF the First Baptist church, Is
the central figure has been revived.
Rogers came 10 Burlington from Frank
lin, Pa, In October, 1880. In that city
he was pastor OF the First Baptist
church. Although married, he did not
bring his wife here with him, aud after
he had been here few months II was
rumored he left Franklin under a cloud
and that his name had been unfavorahly
connected with that OF another woman
Mt Franklin. In reply 10 this and stint
lar FumoFs, Rogers admitted leaving his
wife, but claimed that the separa-
tIon was the result Of the latter's
misconduct and not through any
fanlt OF his These statements
he supplemented with letters and other
evidence. and correspondence between
officials of the church here and In
Rogers former home seemingly satisfied
the former. Several weeks ago Rogers
announced that a divorce had been
granted his wife by agreement and the
scandal has since dropped out of the
public mind. The other morning, how
ever, local paper published two columns
concerning 10, principally correspond
ence between Rogers and the Franklin
church authorities. Rogers IL Is asserted,
wrote o letter asking to be reinstated 20
membership I'm the congregation In order
To enable him 10 secure n letter TO the
church here. The request was refused
in letter signed by the Franklin church
board and indorsed by unanI-
nous vote Of the congregation,
which states, among other things, that
Rogers, while acting pastor Of that
church and living with his lawful wife,
entered into an engagement to marry
another woman, a member OF the con-
gregation. Also that, although drawing
u salary of $1,000 per annum, and re-
ceiying In addition large sums Of money
as donations from members Of the con-
gregation, he left that city owing numer-
Gus debts which he had failed To pay.
The publication Of the correspondence
has created a sensation, as the particu-
lars of Rogers departure from Penn
syivania were not before fully known.
The pastors enforced resignation may
be- the outcome. IL Is claimed by his
supporters that he made full explana-
tion OF his private affairs before accept
ing the call In this city, and that he was
engaged with n complete understanding

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO CLIMB?
The Value Of a Little Judgment and Care

The proportion of our summer tourists that
make annual pilgrimages to districts of a more
or less mountainous character in preference to
seaside resorts is very considerable, says the
Boston Herald And yet how large indeed is
the percentage of those that never even at
tempt to climb any of the many hills and
mountains for which they profess such fond.
moss before and such profound admiration
after they are reached. The fact may be at
tributed largely to ignorance or fear. though
doubtless many will add, to mort laziness
For person in good health, fond of tramp
ing and properly clothed there is no reason
why mountain ascents cannot be made with
perfect impunity and with actual benefit. pro-
vlded only that the exercise be progressive from
small beginnings, lest it put a sudden but sure
end to all future walks for some time to come
He. indeed, Is fortunate who has the endur-
ance to make himself independent OF railroad
or stage. Tor a trip through the noun tains ar
ranged on such a basis must needs be less ex-
penslve than otherwise. Up steep mountain
roads good walker can easily keep ahea of a
team, while coming down hill their speeds will
be approximately the same.
Few persons can realize to what an extepf
the time necessary for mountain ascent can
be shortened by simple practice. The writer
has III mind some very valuable experiences IN
this connection. Upon the day of arrival from
Boston at the base of Mount Moosilauke in
the White mountains, the ascent was made in
two hours and forty-fve minutes The length
of this lofty mountain road is five miles, and
the rise in that distance 5000 feet, vet after
ten days of mountain life and with less fatigue
the distance was traversed in one hour and
twenty-five minutes, or in just one-half of the
time.
Upon the former occasion frequent stops
were necessary for breath, while on the latter
the walking was continuous. The beginner
need not. therefore, be discouraged if he finds
his wind giving out quickly when he had antic-
ipated far greater enduring powers, and he
must not give up climbing because his Joints
feel sore the following day. II he has thus
rashly attempted hard climb before getting
into desirable condition, let him profit by the
experience and go slow at first.
