THE KANSAS DEFAULTER.
How Ex-Mayor Wilson Betrayed the
Trust of Friends.

Sheriff F. d. Wilson, of Barton county Kan
sas, is in the city, armed with requisition papers
for the delivery into his custody of o. B. Wilson,
ex-mayor of Great Bend, Kan, who is now in
the county Jail. The ex-mayor, who was ar
rested in this city on last Monday. is wanted at
Great Bend for embezzling funds placed in his
hands and for other crooked financial trans
actions.
Sheriff Wilson, who is no relative of the alb
sconder, although of the same name, explains
the method in which the prisoner is alleged to
have defrauded several parties who had deal
ings with him. He was an abstractor, and was
the agent of several loan companies in placing
loans on real estate in the vicinity of Great
Bend. He was widely known and implicitly
trusted by the farmers and entrusted with their
business. One plan upon which he worked was
TO make two or more loans on the same property
After first making a bona fide loan in which
the money went to the rightful owner he
would prepare different abstract of the same
land, secure the signatures of the owner and OBJ
tain another loan. This time the money went
into his own pocket. He is said to have mort
gagged his own house and lot 10 one company for
$780, and then, by representing it TO be unin.
numbered, TO another company for 5000. This
property is not worth over $1,000. He could
readily work out his schemes, because the bust
ness of both parties to the transaction was done
through him.
The prisoner says he is willing to waive reoui-
sition, but in order that there may be no trouble
when the time for his removal comes Sheriff
Wilson will probably procure the necessary
papers from Governor Ferry. The sheriffs in
tention is to leave with his prisoner for Great
Bend on Tuesday morning.

Boyd, preached yesterday morning on the para
BILE of the tares, from Matt xiii:2S-S0 He
said, in brief
This parable helps to correct two very wide
spread mistakes. First, IL is a common suppo-
kition that hypocritical church members are
due TO the unfaithfulness OF the preacher
or the unsoundness of the preach
ing. This assumes that the tares are
due 10 the bad sowing or the bad
seed. This paragraph is directly opposed to
such doctrine. The sower, in the divine ex-
PLANTATION is the Savior himself and the seed is
His own people. The ministry of the Saviour
was the model of faith, fullness. ability and true
doctrine; and yet His ministry was specially
successful IL its success s TO be measured by the
number of converts and the absence of
hypocriey. The tares are not the perversities
and failures of backsliders and true Christians.
They are started and maintained by an enemy.
Another mistake is TO insist that the church
must be absolutely pure. How often we hear
the lamentation, at is such pity the church is
not faultness" Often accusations are brought
against ministers and officers that they do not

those whose purity is doubtful This was the
suggestion of the servants. but the Savior, in
the parable, takes quite different view. He

terry street NJ. L. church yesterday morning. In
the evening she spoke ct the First NJ f. church.
Her morning address was an urgent plea for
help for the women missionaries of China She
spoke OF the work now being done at the Meth
odist university at Pekin, and of the medical de-
partment which is run In connection. At the
hospital over seventy cures of victims OF the
opium habit have been recorded. The medical
work is attracting the higher classes, and is in
such high favor with the viceroy, Li-Hung-
Chang, who is guardian of the emperor, Quang
Hsu. that he has stated that he will give an
official position to every graduate She ex-
planned that in the mission school an ironclad
rule is enforced with respect to the unbinding OF
the feet of the Chinese girls-every foot is I'M
bound, and the practical reasons therefor are
plainly given.
Miss Cushman, illustrating the work of the
Chinese mission field, related anecdote of
Chen-Nainsi (irs. Chem and her son. Young
Chen had obtained some scraps OF q Bible in
Chinese at q theater. These converted him and
he promptly burned all the idols. His mother,
with misguided devotion, eagerly gathered up
the ashes and saved them. She watched her son,
however, and she observed the great change
which had come over him. Then she, too, be-
came q Christian and, eventually, on her death
bed, she in anticipation of Mission day, gave
what money she had-it was wrapped up under
her pillow-to the mission work This
money Miss Cushman still carries.
