THE SOUTHERN FREsHETs.

Great damage has been done in the
Southwest by the high water which
broke through the levees and inundated
portions of Mississippi and Louisiana. A
New Orleans despatch of the 18th, has
this piece of news, showing the back
bone of the Governor of Louisiana I:
"The Louisiana Lottery Company gave
the city yesterday $4,000 to repair the
damages caused by the flood, and fol-
lowed it with one of 100000 to the State
to-day, the money to be used in holding
and repairing the levees. The check was
returned by the Governor, who in his let
ter of non-acceptance, wrote as follows:
To ". 4. Dduphin, President Louisiana
State Lottery, NeIC Orleans:
SIR:-I have received your cOmmuni-
cation of this date, ,inclOsing the check of
the Louisiana Lottery Company for S1OO,-
600 for levee purposes. On the eve of a
session of the Legislature, during which
the renewal or extension of your charter
will be acted upon, a question vitality af-
fecting the interests of this State, have
no right to place the people under obli-
cations to the people of your company in
however small a degree by my acceptance
of gratuity from it. herewith return
you the check. Very respectfully.

stood against the wall, while his wife, a

DEFERRED NEWS NOTES

| If we are going to have any assisted
emigration from this country, it might
not be bad idea to transport the Hat
fields, the McCOys and other warning
Kentucky families to Peru. They carry
on these family vendettas in Peru in
such an expansive and enthusiastic way
that three months after landing there
would probably not be a surviving Hat
field or Mccoy to tell the tale.
The heat and the frequency with which
the subject of annexation or commercial
union is debated in the Canadian Parlia-
ment contrasts strangely with the COM
parative indifference on this side of the

neighbors fondly imagine that the Yam
KEGS are in the habit of lying awake
nights studying how they may best and
soonest gobble up the Dominion and its
people.
Minnesota gave slender Republican
plurality of only 2,lOO in 1886, but two
years later it swung into its accustomed
place with a plurality of 5000 for Hani-

cratic rainbow chasers who are disposed
to make so much of the recent Republi-
can off-year reverses in Iowa.

FREAR'
A NATIONAL UNIVERSITY APPROVED.

Senator Edmund's National university
scheme has been brought prominently to
the front again the past week by some
statements made by Mr.. Edmunds re-
garding his plans and intentions. While
many oppose the scheme, many others
approve it. Of late the impression has
gone forth that the American colleges
are opposed to the establishment of a
National university. In order to ascer-
tain the truth about this report repre-
sentative of the New York Times inter-
viewed many of the professors of Cornell
University the other day and found them
heartily in favor of the scheme, provided
such a university could be organized on
sufficiently broad basis to prevent its
being football for politicians TO wran-
gle over President Adams thinks that in
no possible way could so good use be
made of few of the surplus millions in
the treasury of the Government as by en-
dOwing a National university. With a
proper appropriation he thinks it might
be made possible to establish a universi-
ty which would make 1t no longer neces-
sity for students desiring the most COM
plete education to go to Germany.
Ex-President Andrew d. White thinks
that Washington presents extraordinary
advantages and claims for such an insti-
tuition, but his leading argument is based
upon the good effect such an institution
would have at our National capital. IL
would keep the social, moral and intel
lectual attitude of the place what it
should be, and in measure, at least,
would counteract the evils resulting from
the mere display of wealth. Moreover,
such an institution would strengthen
every college and university i'm the land,
and, indeed, our whole educational sys-
TEN from top to bottom. Ex-President
White emphasizes the fact, to which at
tention has already been called, that
every President of the United States, or
nearly every one, beginning with Wash
ington himself, favored the establish
ment of such an institution, which seems
TO show that the doctrinaire dogma is
not the last word on the subject.
Senator Edmunds's plan has been
very savagely attacked since it was first
broached, but he has not been greatly
disturbed thereby, and is pushing on his
preparations to place it before Congress at
an early day.-Netg York Press.

j. V. Updike, the Ohio Evange-
list, hates shams, hypocrisy, and
sin. He loves God and Christ and
men. He breaches the gospel au-
thorized by Christ and revealed
by the Holy Spirit through the
apostles. He believes the gospel
is the power Of God unto Saliva
tion. In his short career not less
than ten thousand persons have
been converted and added to the
church. All seasons are the came
to him for meetings, summer, win
ter, holidays or during political
campaigns. During the presiden-
tial campaign of 1888, and at the
time of the election, he conducted
a meeting at Fort Wayne, Ind,
and secured one hundred and sew
enty-six additions to the church.
His meetings ere invariably sue
cessful. j. ". Updike was born
Jan. %, 1850, at Cellna, Ohio; his
mothers name was Maria Lincoln,
of the same family as the honest
and lamented Abraham Lincoln.
He has an excellent memory, is
full of eloquence, witty, earnest,
logical and most powerful pulpit
orator.
This great and good man will be
at the Christian church next Sun
day, to begin a protracted meeting.
