PATRONS TRIUMPH
Most Complete In the Case OF
Professor Briggs.
pRINoIToNs THEOLOGY INDORsED

The Vote Being 44O to SO That the Pro-
fessor's Ideas Are Bad Presbyteria nism
Intense Excitement and Solemn Still
ness as the Ballot Was Taken-The
West and Southwest Stand Up for Dis
approval, as DO the Foreign Delegates
Extracts from the Debate.
DETROIT, May 30.-The Briggs fight was
fought to the end yesterday and Princeton
won. Prof. Briggs doctrinal views were
disapproved by great majority and DIR.
Patton was once more triumphant in a
fight against "loose theology" At the
opening of the assembly yesterday some
greetings were exchanged with other Pres
byterian bodies. A feeling of sadness
permeated the assembly over the sad event
of Thursday, which for time modified
the excitement consequent on the open
ing of what was expected to be the final
debate on the great question before the
body; but as the debate proceeded it seemed
that the awful presence of death was for
gotten for while, and theological guns
Numbered with increasing vigor all along
the line
Pleaded for Temporary DisapprOval.
Rev. Hathaway, Of Jersey City, began
the debate. He urged disapproval of the
Briggs appointment for year rather than
permanently. If the assembly disapproved
for year it would give time for such in
vestigation as was necessary. 1t would be
a sad day for the church when they al
lowed a technicality of law to defeat JUS
tice. He pleaded not for DIR. Briggs, but
for the best interests of the church. The
assembly was making history. Let it not
make history for which their children
might have to apologize.

CARGO OF ACTORS AND HOGS.
A "Reminiscences of Joseph Jefferson's
transforming Days.


One or the best stories Joe jefferson
tells of his early transforming days, says
the Albany .A'yns, was of the time when the
company, under the management of Sol
Smith, got stranded in little Mississippi
town. and didn't have enough money TO
reach the next stand where it was to play
Luckily it was in the Summer time, and
the river was full of hatboats plying to
and fro with produce and live stock. 1t
was q case of going the whole hog or
none. So Sol Smith, who was an elu-
quent old actor, finally prevailed on tine
skipper, who was going down the river
with a load of hogs. to give the actors
free transportation.
1t may be imagined that the trip was
not enjoyably spent in such unsavory
company. but actors were not as particular
in those days rs thev are now.
One evening the flatloat passed pala-
tial steamer. the deck filled with elegantly
dressed Southern ladies aud gentlemen.
The captain hailed the skipper of the fiat

The roar of laughter that went up from
the deck of that steamboat at this an
nouncement must have made the engineer
think that his boiler had burst.
