Rev. r. c. Caves Bad Break.

Rev. r. c. Cave publicly renowned
the Christian religion at st. Louis
Sunday of last week aud carried with
him the Weather portion of his con-
gregation, in the Central Christian
church of that city. The Louisville
Post has this:
1.-THE Rev. r. C. Cave, the distin-
guished st. Louis clergyman who re-
Gently renounced his faith in Jesus
Christ and boldly proclaimed views
entirely at variance with his former
teachings, is an uncle OF Ed. E. L.
Powell, pastor of the First Christian
church Of this city. Mr.. Cave rendered
his resignation as pastor Of the st.
Louis church. in a remarkable dis
course. His conduct, he said, was
governed and prompted by his honest
convictions. He could not accept the
miracles, and he could not accept
Christ as other than the highest and
grandest type OF manhood the world
has ever beheld. His life was the
standard of moral rectitude and his
character the type Of human perfec-
ton.
These heretical views coming
from one whose learning and logic but
short time before assailed with pow
er what he now accepts as fact, at
tracted wide attention and bitter de-
nunciation from public, press and
pulpit. The man who has the temer-
ity to induce a wealthy, intelligent
and powerful congregation 20 accept
as only a code of moral laws what the
world is proud to revere as holy and
sacred creed, whose dangerous elo-
quence cen lead a hundred people
from faith to doubt and from doubt to
unfaith, is certainly no ordinary per-
son.
|. He is a Virginian by birth, and
came to Kentucky about fifteen years
ago. He was elected President of the
South Kentucky College. at Hopkins
vile, and conducted that institution
successfully for a number Of years.
At the same time he was pastor
of the Christian church there,
He refused to participate in the me-
mortal service Of his church upon the
occasion of President Garfeld's death,
and his resignation as President OF
the institution and pastor of the church
was soon after accepted. The entire
family is noted for its intellectual
strength. r. Lynn Cave, pastor Of
the First Christian church at Nash
vile, Tenn, is little less renowned as
scholar and orator than his orthodox
brother"

Gorton's Minstrels gave one of the

genuine negro minstrelsy, at the
Opera House last night, that was
ever given in this city. The high
expectations entertained by the large
and critical audience were more than
realized. There was everything in the
performance to commend and nothing
to criticise. The Gold Band gave some
of the finest band music We have ever
heard. The singing and dancing were
superb and the musical features uu-
surpassed. The comiosiitiss were

and death had no terrors for her. She
had lived to see all of her children

happily married to worthy husbands.
All were with her in her last hours

by her loved ones, herpure and gentle
spirit left its tenement Of clay. In her

faith and the Christians hope. The
body was laid to rest in the city ceme-
terry and was followed to the grave by
many carriages filed with sorrowful
friends.

The effect Of these wholesale ingredi-

port of the city chemist, Prof. JOIN

sis SIS part per million Of albuminoid
ammonia resulting from the dissolved
organic impurity; or nearly double the
proportion that marks the danger line.
On the other hand, Prof McCAND-
LESS analysis of the filtered water, as
delivered to the city without Interrupt
ton. shows that only one-seyenth OF
the impurity. or 0.O4 part per Million
was left, being little more than one
fourth Of the quantity allowed by Sani-
tary authorities for wholesome drinking
water.
The total solids of the water, as in
creased largely by the caustic soda, rose
to 1872 grains per gallon, which the
filter reduced to Az.

that organic solutions and germs are
