the Past Year.

REofs Shows Summary OF Observations Fer
the Past Year.
LAWRENCE, Kan, Jan. 8.-Prof. Snow
has prepared meteorological summary
for the year 1890 from observations
taken from the university. This shows
that the year 1890 was one of the six
yvarmest years upon his twenty-three
years record, the Thermometer having
reached the zero point but twice during
the year. The rainfall was above the
average, but an untimely deficiency in
June and July was disastrous to the
crop in nearly all parts of the State
Some remarkable peculiarities of this
year were the extremely low barometer
OF March p, which gave the lowest
reading ever observed at this station,
and the date of the first snow, which
did not make its appearance until Dec
cember %, forty-three days later than
the average date.
The mean temperature of the year
was 54:1O degrees, which is 1888 degrees
above the mean for the preceding TWEEN
ty-twO years. The highest was 1O1.5
degrees on July IA; the lowest degrees
below zero, January 10, giving range
of 1858 degrees. The mean of the win
ter months, SI:99 degrees, which is 3:O6
degrees above the average. OF the
spring it was 52;55 degrees, which was
l:17 degrees above the averagei of the
summer, 1894 degrees, 2:33 degrees
O:55 degrees above the average. The
warmest month of the year was July,
with mean temperature S2:76; the warm
est week, July to II, mean, S5:12 de-
grees; the warmest day, July III, mean,
SS:47 degrees. The mercury reached or
exceeded 30 degrees on fOrty-thI'ee days,
below average. The coolest month
was January, the mean temperature
being 1924 degrees; the cOldest week,
January Is to 81, mean temperature,
1885 degrees; the coolest day, January
Is, mean, 6:12 above zero. The mercury
fell below zero on only two days, of
which one was in January and he other
in February.
The entire rainfall. including melted
snow, was So 80 inches, was was O.S2
inches above the annual average. The
rain of the afternoon and night of OctO-
Der 10 measured 4. AZ inches, which sur
passed any previous single rainfall on
record, except the IS inches of August
10, 1889. The number of thunder
showers was twenty-four, May 90 oc-
| CURED the only hailstorTn of the year.
| The entire depth of snow was 15.5

January, three in February, one-half in
! March and four inches in December.

average. The velocity of the wind was
below the average for the preceding

THE PAVILION SITE.

new pavilion, by the Directors OF
Agricultural District No. /, with
out any previous consultation
with the taxpayers of the district,
has caused a great deal Of dissat-
isfaction.
Not long ago the School Trus-
tees started in to build new
school house without any previous
consultation with the people of
the district, and they had a hor-
nets nest about their ears immed-
lately.
BY the hasty action of the Trus
tees really good plan was over
whelmingly defeated. The APPEAL
does not see anything objection
able in the site chosen by the
Board, but the taxpayers who all
help pay for the proposed expend-
iture, object to having a site Sc
lected without the courtesy being
paid them of having their wishes
inquired into.
The citizens of Ormsby have
ACQUIRED habit of late years, OF
insisting that when their money is
spent for public purposes, that
they have some voice in the mat
ter beyond the simple pungling
Of the taxes.
This is a natural feeling which
everybody has, and the Directors
of the District should have taken
this feeling into consideration.
BY the simple calling Of a public
meeting, an open discussion would
have probably resulted in select
ing that identical site, and every
body would have been happy and
contented.
AS it is now, one hears nothing
but growing and mutterings
about jobs, and the outcome will
be tendency to cause hard feel
ings between the public and the
Directors, which might have been
avoided by a little tact.
The Directors Of the district
have devoted a great deal OF val
liable time to furthering the inter
ests of the annual fairs, and mucl
of the resulting SUCCESS is due t
their intelligent work in that di
rection.
The last meeting in this cit
was pronoused to be equal In a.
respects to the racing at the Stat
Fair, and people are gradual
realizing that they enjoy them
selves better ut Carson and sc
faster time on O better track tina
at Reno.
Nothing new remains but {

OF agricultural products will b

fair, and Carson win reap larg
benefits every fall

A Reliable Assistant.

The poet and the almanac-maker
agree that all seasons have their
signs, but those of spring are most
active and insistent. 1t is then that
nature throws off the lethargy of
winter and prepares to renew her
bounties. 1t is then, also, that ma
ture attempts to throw off the inn
purities that have lain dormant in
the human system. This effort mani
tests itself in various ways-in the
increased activity of old affections, in
the appearance Of boils, carbuncles
and other eruptiOns, and in the vari-
Gus symptoms so familiar to those
who have suffered. 1t is at this
period that nature finds an active and
a trustworthy assistant in S, S. S.,
which, in the work of purifying the
blood and strengthening the system,
has proven to be the most perfect
spring medicine ever offered to the
public.

BIRMINGHAM, July S.-Evangelist
Dixon Williams has created a great
stir in Birmingham. The Cumber-
land Presbyterian Church brought
him here to conduct grand revival,
and built him a tabernacle to seat
1900 people. He was to stay a
month and furnish great singer to
lead the singing. He came and for
awhile people flooded to hear him.
Then he had to leave for Indiana on
business, and stayed ten days. The
meeting came near falling through,
but was carried on by a pastor, and
during this time all the real conver-
sions of the meeting took place. The
contributions didn't pan out. 1t was
a big struggle to keep the meeting
going, until it closed with the church
$500 in debt, and no results worth
mentioning. The church got togeth-
err $500 for him and paid his board
bill of 800. He demanded $1,000.
They refused. He offered to knock
off $3.50 and take $3.50 in full satisfac-
ton. They had raised all they could.
Rev. Dixon then sent a claim for
$3.50 to a lawyer with instructions to
sue on it. The lawyer wouldn't take
the case, and the reverend evangelist
withdrew his suit. Mr.. Williams
came here from Indiana.

This objection has been shown to be
grouudless so often and so fully that it is

objected that 5000 could not have been
baptized in one day by immersion. .
Facts in connection with our Baptist Mis-.
sion at Ongole, India. demonstrate that it
could be done easily.
WHY THE MODE WAS ChAN6EDs
Among the earliest errors which
crept into the church was the be-
lief that baptism was necessary to Saliva
ton. Then arose the question of what TO
do with the unbaptized Who were sick
and about to die. At first INNER
sion was simulated by copious pour
ings See Bremen who traces the
changes made by the Church OF
Rome in this ordinance up to the present
time He finds the first deviation from
immersion in the letter of Cgprian after
the middle of the third century, in a case
of sickness, and with him all historians
agree, sprinkling and pouring we're only
permitted in the Catholic church, in case
of sickness, until the council of Ravenns,
A. d. 1911. By decree Of that council
sprinkling became the rule and not the
exception. and the only authority for this
practice is dogma of the church of
Rome. Unfortunately. at the period of
the reform alton. those who came out
from Rome transferred some of the errors
of Rome into Professionalism, and among
them was the changed mode of baptism.
Our practice with INQUIRIES concern
ing The mode of baptism, is to bid them
take the New Testament and obey its
plain teaching. Some, who admit that
immersion vas the mode in New Tesla
ment times, say ''it is OF no consequence. y
We believe it is better to follow the scrip
lures rather than the decision Of Roman
Catholic council. Some say. leave the
choice of mode to the candidate.
A first principle christian life is
obedience 10 the will of God and not the
indulgence of mere preferences and ca
prices. Reading our English version OF
the scriptures. with a heart intent only
on learning, the right way will inevitably
guide to immersion.
My heart is panied at the division Of
Chgistendon into 50 many sects. The
only basis of union can be the truth OF
God. In the meanwhile we rejoice in al
the zeal. christian love and prosperity II
christian work which, today, attends the
labors Of Gods people.

"CtS w OTth
Attorney P S. Nelson, of Dubuque,
spent Saturday in Rock Island. he came
here in pursuit Of a carpenter named Hunt
who tad skipped out from the Key city
for Rock Island after imposing upon the
chants and obtaining goods under false
pretenses. 1t seems that on Friday and
Saturday, Feb % and IS, Hunt called on
grocers, furniture dealers and others and
obtained goods to the value of $3.50,
representing that he would pay for them
on pay day, March g. He also stated
that he was moving from Rhomberg
avenue, that city, to another part
OF the city, and that. to avoid two
hauls, he would have the expressman call
for the goods and add them to bis load of
household goods. This the expressman
did, but Hunt failed to turn up March 8.
nor did his creditors see him afterward
The case was put in Mr.. Nelson's hands
who learned that the goods had been TAX
en- direct to car and shipped to Rock
Island. Coming here Mr.. Nelson found
Hunt domiCiled in one Of the houses in
Pettit's row on Third avenue between
Eighth and Ninth streets, and taking a
police officer with him replevined gold
watch, bolt of CARPET and other effects
such rs would equal the amount of the
property and returned to Dubuque.
