Tho Farmera, Chnrrh

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of
this week are known as Rogation Days.
or Praying Days. At such times special
prayers are made for the Divine blessing
upon the labors Of those who till the
soil. In commencing their use on Sun
day last, in one of the churches of Sus-
sex, Bishop Coleman called the attention
Of the farmers to the fact that the Epis-
cal Church was the only Protestant body
in this country which set apart special
days every year for this purpose, and
also made similar provision in the ordi-
nary services of the church. He there
fore thought that it might be called the
Farmers Church, and as such, was
worthy Of their particular regard.

BY Telephone to EVENING JOURNAL.
DELAWARE CITY, May 14-Great ex-
citement was stirred up in this town to-
day, by the appearance Of a strange dog,
suffering terribly with the rabies. The
mad dog ran through all the principal
streets Of the town, and every unfortu-
nate animal with which it came in contact
was badly bitten. Several valuable dogs
were seen to approach the maddened
beast, and, the next instant, were seen
to run away crying with pain.
The rabid beast was pursued by a
party of men, armed with breach-load-
ing guns for long distance up the
river shore It was shot five times, but
none Of these wounds proved fatal.
The party finally succeeded in surrounding
the dog and it jumped into the river and
was drowned
Ali Of the animals which were bitten
have been, or will Immediately be killed,
although some of them are great

Expected.
The October Term Of the United States
Supreme Court
Government Land SaleS-IuSinoSS Of the
Pacific Coast Offices for the Past
Year-ReVOlutiOnary Relies.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-There has been
little change in Justice Mller's condition
since early morning. All day the physi-
clans and watches have been gathered
around his bedside, momentarily expecting
his dissolution, and it has only been owing
TO his wonderful vitality that he lived
through the day. The physicians say that
he has been dying all day and that the end
is not far off. During the day his respira-
ton has grown shorter, the pulse increa sed
and the lungs constantly filled with phlegm,
rendering breathing extremely difficult.
This afternoon, when Dr. Lincoln relieved
DR.. Cook, he noticed a marked change in
the patients condition, and knew then he
was beyond medical assistance.
During the day and evening a large num-
Der of persons called. Only the Justices of
the Supreme Court were admitted to the
sick-room. A telegram was received during
the day that Mrs. Touzalin and Mrs. Cork
hill, daughters OF the Justice. had left
Omaha and would arrive here tomorrow
night. Mrs. Harrison and Chief Justice
Fuller were among the callers. each remain
ing several hours.
The great vitality exhibited by Justice
Miller is surprising to his physicians and
friends. He is still alive but is unconscious,
and the family are gathered at the bedside
awaiting the final change.
WASHINGTON, Oct. l3.-At ! o'clock this
morning Justice Miller was sinking rapidly,
and his breathing had become more diff
cult. 1t is hardly possible at times to tell

At2 O'clock Justice Miller was still alive

Colonel Markham'S Novel ReCep-
tion at Mokelumne Hill.
The Republican Standard-Bearer With
CalaVeraS County Friends.
Informal Reception at San Andreas TO
Residents Of the City and the
Surrounding Towns.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

SAN ANDREAs, Oct 12-Colonel Mark
ham left Jackson early this morning in
private conveyance for this city. The re-
Spect due the Sabbath day was not sufficient
to keep down the enthusiasm of the people
along the route traversed. The passage of
the magnetic Colonel was the signal for the
widest demonstrations in the shape of the
blowing of steam whistles at quartz-mlls,
the ringing of sehool-house and church
bells, and the waving of hats and general
cheering. AT Mokelumne Hill, where the
party stopped for lunch, Colonel Markham
received rousing reception at the hands of
the Republicans, assisted by not few citi-
zens Of the opposite political faith.
As his carriage entered the town, two
little tots of girls. Stella Vieth and Gladys
Burce, who had been sent forward as COM
mittee to escort the distinguished visitor
within the city gates, stepped into the road
like tiny fairy highwaymen and opened an
assault on the occupants Of the carriage
with Markham roses, until the delighted
Colonel was almost buried from sight by
the fragrant blossoms. The floral lombard
ment was kept up until the towns supply
of Markham roses was exhausted, when the
childish captors led the captive candidate
through the principal street to the hotel,
where the whole population was assembled
with brass band TO bid him welcome. The
novelty of this reception greatly delighted
Colonel Markham, who declared he would
never forget it to his dying day.
After an elaborate luncheon, which had
been prepared at much pains and expense,
the Colonel thanked the people, individually
and collectively, excusins himself from
making a political speech on Sunday. In
the midst of the general hand-shaking
jubilee, four-horse carriage. arrived from
San Andreas, containing number of lead
ing citizens of that place, who came to act
as an escort to the Republican standard
bearer the remainder of the way. Half an
hour later the triumphant march toward
San Andreas was again taken up. A lew
miles out of that city the procession was
met by carriage containing Hon. u. Blan-
chard, nominee for Congress, and John +.
Davis, who advanced to meet the coming
conqueror. The party arrived at San An
dreas at O'Clock ana were received at the
outskirts of the town by hundreds of citi-
zens Of this place and the surrounding
towns and escorted to the Metropolitan
Hotel, where Colonel Markham spent an
hour shaking hands with throng OF people
who called to bid him welcome. An in-
formal reception was held in the evening,
Mr.. Markham declining, as he had before,
to make political speech on Sunday.

Rnuner's Mara.

New YORK, Oct. 12.-Sunops campaign
this season has so far been very forcibe
confirmation of the theory already ex-
pressed by tnat observing horseman,
Peter C. Kellogg, that four-year-old,
among trotters a. least. is no better than at
3 years old. In Kellogg's opinion the de-
velopment that goes on in a horses fourth
year is a sort OF Encouragement of strength,
If not even suspension of growth, that goes
to make it speedier. The fastest mile of
1890 was SunoPs 2:1OK, which exactly
equaled her 2:l0R which was made in 1889
Despite its apparent paradox, the Kellogg
theory can point to her as the strongest ar
gument for its soundness. When Bonner's
mare has returned to California, however,
where her tSaining can be continued until
December, so that for illustration the horse
while III its four -year-old form by the rec
ord, is on the threshold of the year to come,
we may reasonably expect that Sunol Will
be ready before January to give us an ink
ling of her five-year-old powers and eclipse
any OF her performances that we have seen
this year. Perhaps she may beat the record
for all ages. Wait and see and hope.

Make Arrangements for Their

Special to THE MoRNISs CALL.

NEW YORK, Oct 12-Thomas P. GILL; NJ.
p. arrived on the Alaska to-day from Liver
pool. 1t is understood that he is here to
arrange for the reception of Dillon and
O'Brien.
Hon. T. P. Gill, who arrived on the
Alaska to-day, says that the escape of
Dillon and O'Brien was planned before he
left Ireland, because the National League
believed Balfour intended to lengthen the
trial so .as to prevent their coming to
America. He thinks they We're taken to the
continent on Murphy's yacht A cable re-
ceived by Gill to-day says that they did not
catch the Bourgoyne, but they may sail on
tile Normandie Wednesday.
Gill says that Parnell inspired the plan of
escape. He adds: I'VE came to state the
case Of Ireland to the American people and
not to appeal for charity. There is an i'm
mense conspiracy to destroy the National
party in Ireland. Within four Years 5000
persons have been imprisoned for ALLEGED
political offenses, and 1 may say One-third
of the Irish party have been put in jail from
