Equal for an Hour.

Chatter: One day last year, when the
emperor of Germany and the Prince of
Wales met in Berlin, our minister, William
Walter Phelps, became for few hours as
much OF man as any one in the company.
He is not to-day, and never has been since
that occasion. No man we have ever sent
abroad was as much admired as Phelps is
by the Germans. They say of him that he
can accomplish whatever he wants to as
a diplomat. he is SO popular and his ability
is SO greatly respected. But he is only a
minister, and on all state occasions he must
fall to the rear behind the ambassador from
little Portugal and the diplomats of even
some barbarous nations. That il what
happens TO the representatives Of America
at every court in Europe. Representing q
country where all men are equal they ara
Enevertheless made interiors by an idiotic
refusal TO give them the title that other ma

tions bestow upon their chief agents. On
the day Lspeak of the Prince of Wales
walked over to the diplomatic corps and
shook hands and chatted with Mr.. Phelps.
He had met Mr.. Phelps before and likes
him. That little condescension of royalty
made our minister for that one day the
equal of his associates. Was there ever
such nonsense? Abolish the institution, or
if not, at least give them the rank which all
the world acknowledges to be theirs BY
right. Why pay all the money this service
costs solely to advertise the United States
as second-class power?

KANSAS CHURCHES.

A Reloit wiring: Solomon presby-
terry, in session, favored revision by a
vote OF two to one. They recommend
ed conservative action.
Topeka Capital: Easter was very
fittingly celebrated at the churches of
this city. The music was inspiring and
in many o. the churches the programs
were elaborate. The decorations were
choice, not so elaborate, perhaps, as in
former years, but IN every case in ex-
cellent taste. Some of the churches
observed the pretty Easter custom of a
children's service of carols, and gifts of
Easter eggs.
A Pratt dispatch: The Presbytery
of Larned convened at Pratt City on
Sunday evening, April 1, and was
opened by Rev. b. F. Hill of Mead Cen
ter. The attendance was very good
and the session throughout very inter
esting. This presbytery enrolls sixty
five churches and includes a number of
counties IN southwestern Kansas. Rev.
i. T. Stephenson of Mcpherson was
elected ministerial and Dr. G. L. Peak
of Pratt City lay commissions to the
next general assembly. Twenty votes
were cast in favor and seventeen against
revision of the confession of faith. The
discussion on this topic elected deep
interest and as it was prolonged drew a
large audience.
