ties concerning missionaries and their

opportunity to deliver an address to the
church workers. Following him Rev.
W. Whitney outlined the work among
the Scandinavians, and spoke very en-
couragingly of the outlook. He referred
to the Catholic movement against the
public schools. and said that the Luther
ans are allied with the Catholics against
the schools. There was cause for alarm
in this warfare.
Following this came number of in
teresting five minute talks from minis
tiers from different parts of the state and
not the least interesting was that of
Rev. j. W. Dunjee, of Bethesda church,
the only colOred preacher in attendance.

New Boston. gave the convention a
pleasant surprise by announcing that
from now on his church was self-sup-
porting. Rev. !. Bergstrom closed the

navlans in the southern part of the state.
The afternoon session was devoted to re-
ports from standing committees, Rev.V.

Rev. Frank Peterson on foreign mis-
siOns. and Boston w. Smith upon the

were made on the various phases of mis-

FACTIOUS PRESBYTERIAN
The Bennett Seminary Property a
Rome of Contention

The Bennett Seminary Property a
Bone of Contention.
The financial distresses of the Ben
ne tt seminary are being aired in court
before Judge Young. The society asks
that Capt. Joseph c. Whitney. formerly
its president, be made to come forward
and settle up his affairs as trustee. They
claim that he has held the property of
the society and collected rents there
from, appropriating the same to his own
use. The history of affairs dates away
back to 1882, and the immediate cause
was the troubles between prominent
Presbyterians which we're precipitated
by the new regime that took control of
things at the female seminary and run
ming them with what was looked upon
by the old regime as disregard for their
years of service.
1t seems that in the old days, the
school house was owned by the prin-
cipal, Mrs. Kenyon, and was conducted
by her. In 1882 the building became in
adequate, and in June of 1882 the pres
ent site of the school, at the corner of
Park avenue and Tenth street, was
purchased, the building erected and the
school opened. The complaint says
that the seminary bought the land.
Capt. Whitney says that it did not and
in tact never owned it, but that he held
the property from the beginning. The
seminary directors claim that the prop
erty was held in trust by William w.
McNair and that it wassquit claimed to
his brother director, Joseph c. Whit
ney. to protect its interests, as he was
then the president of the society.
When the society was incorporated
fol ctr Of
but nobody ever held any of it but Capt.
Whitney. Now it is charged that Capt.
Whitney arranged and consummated an
exchange of the school property after
acquiring other property which he
might afterward convert to his own
use, and that he received 5000 balance
which he did convert to his own use and
alsoS3 600 by the exchange of mortgages.
The property he received for the school
was store in Central block. The case
will come up again this morning.

Keep your fee. warm and dry.

Keep your feet warm and dry
arctics or rubbers
Keep your eye on your umbrella, you win
need it yourself.
Stopa cough or cold at once. Pneumonia
and consumption may be started by either.
If you wear rubbers take them off whenever
you have the chance, even if only for few
minutes.
If you feel cough or cold coming on take
a drink of pure whiskey at once. 1t will keep
the blood in circulation and is the best pre-
ventiye against the diseases of the season.

be taken. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has
the strongest recommendations from the

The fre broke out during the dancing and
a terrible panic ensued. In the confusion is

but the number may not exceed six.
Mr.. Harrison was about TO leave the build
Paddock, Nlce-President Burbage, and Editor
Malone Of the Fort W orth Gazette recognized
him and escorted him through the build
ing until about ten o'clock when Mr.
the landing. and AIr. Sleicher, pointing
out the highly infammable character Of
the decoration, made up of cotton,
hve-Oak moss, grasses, etc, said a
spark IN such a building would lead TO
frightful loss of life. Vice President Bur-
bage pointed out that the structure was lit
by electricity. that no smoking was per-
nltted, ana that guards with fire extinguish-
ers were stationed at frequent intervals.
Hardly had he uttered the words before
cry was heard, followed by the Shrieks of
hundreds Of women on the upper floor Mr..
Sleicher turned to Mr.. Harrison with
blanched face and said: Its fire; save
yourseIfr'
Stand still" shouted Harrison stay
where you are, and pass out orderly"
The stairway upon which he stood was in
stantly blocked by surging mass of men
and fainting women, through which Har-
rlSon tried to make his way to save
a little child which he and others had
noticed lying asleep behind the exhibit rail
ing III obscure corner of the building.
Mr.. Harrison stood his ground, begging the
terrified women not to give way and helping
to extricate them from the crOWdng mass
until finally the stairway was closed.
He then made a final effort to mount the
stairway and save the child, but it was too
late. The flames were burning the top
rails and decorations. Mr.. Harrison
hurried from the building, first telling a
frantic dOOrman to carry out the big
record book in which the names of visitors
were recorded. By the time he reached the
outside the roof the palace wac one great
blaze. Women were running to and
fro, shrieking for their husbands and chill
dren, and from the opposite windows of the
fiery furnace the forms of men and women
clinging to windows and dropping twenty
feet to the ground could be seen. The loss is
estimated at 500 900.
