LEANING TOWARD REVISION.

Rev. DR.. Howard CrOsby Makes Plea
in Favor.
Nnw York, Jan. 27.-There is decided
leaning towards revision among the ministers
at the conference of the New York Presby-
terry to-day. Although there ia not the
slightest doubt but that the proposed re-
vision of faith will have amajority of adj
vocates the debate will, nevertheless, be cons
tinued for another day OF least. Rev. DIR.
Hastings once more protested against maxi
ing the church = common auditorium by ap-
plause, and the audience was accordingly ad
vised not to show any demonstration.
| Rev. DR.. Howard Crosby made an eloquent
| plea in favor of revision. He said: find
! one part of our confession of faith diamet-
really opposed to the word of God. find
| that one part pernicious to the church and
its hottest interests. Iwould be willing to
allow minor part to remain contrary to my
own view. but whom see one contrary to the
word Of God and pernicious my soul must re-
volt against u. Anything that conflicts with
this doctrine IL an insult to God. am In
favor of revision; it will not bring about rev.
olution.
Rev. Mr.. Vandyke repudiated the doctrine
of reprobation. He said 1t set itself like q
dam across the stream of free salvation
Materiaiistic science favored predestination
If the doctrine of election was admitted ther
it shotild also be admitted that God would
precipitate infants from the mothers breas
intp hell.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 27.-The ten sailors
of the bark Jennie Hardness, accused of set
ting fire to that vessel on July 20 last in the
harbor Of Manila in the Philippine Islands,
were given further hearing before United
States Commissioner Edmunds this afternoon.
Several of the prisoners were heard in their
own defence and at the conclusion of the ex-
animation the commissioner discharged all
the accused men from custody on the ground
of lack of evidence. In discharRing the men
Commissioner Edmunds said he felt satisfied
that the vessel was set on fire. but there was
q probability that it might have been acciden-
tai. He thought the guilty man was among
the prisoners, but the testimony had not been
suficient to hold any Of the men and he
would therefore discharge them all. The an
nouncement was evidently surprise to Cap
tain Amesbury, the master of the Jennie
Hardness, who when the commissioner had
concluded jumped to his feet and raising his
right hand impressively said:
II will haul down the American flag from
my ship. God forgive me, but I'll do 1t. ]
have been master for thirty years, but II
this is the justice dealt out here I'll sail I'M
der another flag"
Then he crowded his hat upon his head and
strobe out of the door. The commissioner
said nothing in reply.

Rough ON Pipes.

The pipes of the Mandan waterworks
have worn out in five years, some parts
of them being described by the Pioneer
as being thin as cardboard. Water which
would accomplish that must be pretty
rank-Sioux Falls Press.
Most Of the artesian water of South
Dakota has the same effect upon iron
pipes, but no better water a be obtained
for all other purposes. There is some
thing in its chemical composition that
takes hold of iron, though analysis show
that it contains nothing that cannot be
beneticially taken into the human sys-
tenn. 1t is probable tnut a person with
a cast iron stomach might experience
disastrous effects from its use. Yankton
years ago ascertained the affinity between
artesian water and iron pipes, and in
place of iron wood is now used for all
our street mains. The ingredient in the
water that destroys iron has a contrary
effect upon wood and our mains are be-
coming more durable as they acquire
age-Yanton Press.
Kimball has laid over 1000 feet OF
wood pipe within the last year.

DO you Think

A. j. WOoledge, proprietor of the nurs-
cry up in Buffalo county, has become
tired of trying to do business so far
away from a railroad. He would like to
go into the business at some railroad
point, and naturally favors Kimball.
There would be no trouble in securing
plenty Of good land within the city linn
its or near by but lie wants an incorpor-
ated stock company at the back of the
undertaking to give the productions Of
the nursery sufficient standing abroad
to warrant a ready sale Of the products.
Mr.. Wooledge says that but little money
would be needed to give the project a
permanent and successful start here and
has perfect faith in the undertaking
from a financial standpoint. That a
thing of this kind would be of advantage
to Kinball, financially and otherwise,
musth e plain to everyone, and the GRAPH
&c would suggest that some of our bust
ness men get together and talk the mat
ter over. We have personal knowledge
of several nurseries that started in this
manner and that not only paid from the
start but grew to mammoth proportions
in wealth and business.

Amateur rheatricals.

An effort is being made to present
to the play-going public Of Kim
ball and vicinity, at an early date, the
copyright drama, ''The Lost Heir" and
from an exact copy of the original man
uscript now owned by one of the most
celebrated actors in America and played
only by his company. If a satisfactory
cast can be made it will be presented
under the stage direction of C. r. Tinan,
who is familiar with the drama from
past associations and who owns the only
duplicate manuscript of the play in ex-
istence. The drama ranks with such
celebrated plays as Hazel Kirke" "Esmer-
elda," and the 1.-TWO Orphans" but, un-
like them, is much better adapted to m
ateur production. The writer is conf
dent that there is sufficient talent in
town to present the play in excellent
shape.

Death of Mrs. c. M. Aust,n.


After an illness extending over a pc
Rod Of ten years, during the greater por-
ton Of which she was a confirmed inva-
lid, Mrs. c. NJ. Austin, wife of Brnle coun-
TVS venerable ex-commissioner, peace
fully laid aside the burden of life and
quietly passed out into the Unknown, one
week ago-Thursday, the 10th inst.
The deceased was sixty-two years of
age. She was married to the husband
who survives her in Franklin, Delaware
Co., N. Y, on Jan. 10. 1S49 They moved
to Iowa in 1858 and to Brule county in
1882. Confined continually to her home
by illness, Mrs. Austin did not enjoy the
wide acquaintanceship that would have
come to her in the ordinary II of
life, but those who were ever SO fortu-
nate as to be brought into social relations
with her recognized at ono her true
womanly instincts and noble traits OF
character. She was a devoted christian
and had been a member of the Babtist
church for over t%hirty-one years. Her
loss to the one to whom she has been a
devoted wife, companion and helpmeet
for so many long years cannot be meas.
ured in words.
The funeral took place at her late resi-.
idence south of Kimball, on Saturday
last. Rev. McNinch officiating. Although
the day was bitter cold, many attended
from Kimball.

sun.Doxs. or Mock suua

The sun-dogs have been unusually
conspicuous this month and an %explana-
ton Of the phenomena may be of inter
est. The word halo is u term commonly
used in meteorology to include all those
phenomena in which a luminous ring,
either cOl0red or u%ncolOred, is seen around
the disk of the sun or moon. There are a,
however, two distinct classes Of such
phenomena, called coronae and halos.
The attendants of halos are, circles hay
ing a double diameter, parhelia or mock
suns, and various othercircles. Coronae
are distinguished from halOs in this
fundamental respect, that the former
are due to particles or y~esicles of water
in mist or cloud, and the latter to min
ute crystals of ice. This is why sur
dogs are seen only in cold weather and
are frequent but in high northern lati-
tudeS.

statesman John Cras.

The following extract from the speech
OF John Grass, made recently &c the pres
ident, is a powerful argument against
the proposed policy Of segregating the
Indian children from their parents in
the interests of civilization.
"Many of our children die in the schools
east. But if the climate is not fatal to
them, they come back helpless. You edu-
cate them here and fit them for your life.
You send them back to us, who have no
shops for their trades, no farms for their
farming. What a they do? Nothing.
They YEA out the clothes you give them,
and then they put on the blanket like
the rest rs. You fit them for your life
full Of civilization, and send them back
to us who have no civilization. You
spend a great deal Of money and make
our people very unhappy. 1t will not
cost sc much to give us schools at home
on u lands, and it will be better for u
children and for our people too"

The following was among the questions
in arithmetic at one Of the examinations
in this county, and but one teacher
solved it, although there was a large at
tendance: "a piece of land is three
times as long as it is wide, and contains
seventv-fye square rods. What is its
width" Probably a number of them
had studied Latin, algebra, geometry and
possibly botany.
A graduate of the ''naw-mal" visited
