THE GRAND FALLS.
Return of Another Explorer Of tn,
 Great Cataract in Labrador.

Return of Another Explorer Of the
 Great Cataract In Labrador.
 HALIFAX, N. S., Oct. 13-Henry O. Bryant of Philadelphia returned here yes- terdays from a journey to the Grand Falls of Labrador. He and Professor Kenaston of Washington started from New York on June 23, and on July 23 the party, which consisted of the two Americans, Scotch planter from Newfoundland, and an Els quimau, reached Rigolette, a post on Ham ilton isle. Here the Hudson Bay company gave the use of small schooner, which took the party ninety miles inland to the Northwest river. Here the party were un- able to obtain Indian guides and were left alone with boat brought from New York, and canoe. With much difficulty the swift Grand river was traced for 225 miles, where the Esquimau was left in charge of a camp, and the three took their canoe, and by portage and lake came within fifty miles of the falls. There everything was left behind, except what they took on their backs, and for two days they struggled forward with great difficulty through ster- ile country, denuded of trees and strewn with immense boulders. On September 2 the falls came in sight.
 MT. Bryant describes them as truly mag nifcent. They are more than twice as high as Niagara. Aneroid measurements were made, checked by other measure ments, above the falls. The river flows down for 1S9 feet at an angle of 30' over it's rocky bed. The abrupt descent of the water is 316 feet, and the river here is from 50 to 100 feet wide. The column of mist arising can be seen at a great dis tance.
 The return journey to the coast was made in seven days. Professor Kenaston is still in St. Johns. MT. Bryant brings valuable collection of specimens of the structural formation of the country near the falls

THE AMERICAN BOARD.
The Efghty.SecOnd Annual Meeting
 at Pittsfield Committees App

The Efghty.Second Annual Meeting
 at Pittsf1eld Committees Ap-
 pointed.
 PTTTsFIELD, Mass, Oct. 13.-The eighty
 second meeting of the American board be-
 gan here to-day. Twice before, in 1S49
 and 1866, the board has met in Pittsfeld.
 At p. m. Rev. Dr. Storrs, the president, announced that quorum was present. He opened the meeting by scripture read ing and prayer and the minutes of last years meeting at Minneapolis were read. Dr. Jenkins, pastor the First Congrega- tional church, in which the meetings are held, welcomed the gathering. He said that the ground on which the building stands has never known private owner ship. The first missionary society in Massachusetts was that of Berkshire county and Columbia county, N. Y., formed in 1799. He was glad that so unusual a number, more than sixty of the active and retired missionaries and over 100 theological students were guests. He praised Dr. Storrs' agency in harmonizing recalling the fact that the board was essentially started in this coun- ty in the world renowned haystaek prayer in Williamstown. Only twenty of the corporate members who were present at the last Pittsfeld meeting were living now. Then, although the Presbyterians were operating through this board, the total receipts were a little more than one-fourth, on gold basis of to-day, when the Congregationalistsa are alone. Then, too, there was a great fall ing off in the number of missionaries. Now there is great improvement in respect both to money and men. Committees on nominations, arrangements and business were chosen and then an outline of the re- port of the prudential committee on the home department was read by Secretary Alden. Rev. Dr. Pratt offered prayer, after which Treasurer Langdon s. Ward read an abstract of his report. The an- nual survey of the missionary field was read by Secretary Clarke. After singing "Hail to the Lord Anointed" the meeting adjourned till evening.

THE CONDUCTORS, FAIR.

Large Crowd Present Despite the In-
 element Weather-The Exhfbits-
 Guessing - Some of the Principal
 Booths-Wusic.
 The Railway Conductors drew nearly as large crowd last evening as on the opening night, despite the wet weather. The armory was thronged with people from s till 10:30. There were two new ex- hibits: Mckenzie & McArthur, manufac- turers of elevators, shafting, etc., New Haven, and the Pintsch Safety Car Heat ing and Lighting company of New York. The fair, or as some think it more proper ly called, the exposition, is said to be the largest affair of its kind ever gotten up in Connecticut. The exhibits are gorgeous and artistically arranged. About the first thing that attracts the attention of the visitor are the switch houses, where the guessing is done. There are various guesses to be made: The most popular school mistress, your favorite C.. A. R. lodge, etc. The COURIER re- porter was informed by the ''switch mistress" of the Colchester rubber boot guessing house that they had been doing rushing guessing business but would not further enlighteli him as to how much that meant.

THE METHODIST COUNCIL
The Place of Lay Agencies in tn
 

The Place of Lay Agencies in the
 Church.
 WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Bishop R. H. Hargrove of Nashville, Tenn, presided at the opening of the sixth days session of the Methodist Gcumenical council. The Rev. Dr. Patterson made the prayer and the Rev. Dr. David Morton of Louisville read the scriptures. After routine busi day, the subject: ''The Church and Her Agencies" being the same as that discussed yesterday.
 The Rev. J. Travis, general missionary sec retary of the Primitive Methodist church, England, read paper on "The Place and Power of the Lay Agency in the Church." He began by saying the church, as founded by our Lord and built up by his apostles, was a community of brethren. They knew of no such distinc- tions priests and5peoPle, or clergy and relation to Christ, the one head; were sanc- ti6ed by the same spirit and had an equal share in all the blessings of salvation and | in all the privileges of the church. The | division of the church into clergy and laity | dates from the second century.
 The early Methodists never talked about ''ministers'' and clay preachers" but | travelling preachers" and '1ocal preach ers." Methodist ministers are not 8 sacred caste, curtsined off from the laity by mys- tic powers conveyed in ordination, but brethren. They are pastors, elders, or bishops invested by the church with cer- tain authority, but they belong to the com mon brotherhood of the saints, and in I spiritual privileges stand exactly equal with all the children of God. The laity have place in the church. The church, as such, allows of no distinction of order or sex. Ministers are in the church be- cause they are Christians, not because they are ministers. Lay agency has place ir the government of the church. Even the apostles seldom acted but in unison witt the laity. The Methodist denominations are agreed that the laity have place, bu they are far from being agreed as to ex tant

 MfddIemen's Intervention.
 GRAND FORKS, N. D., Oct. 13.-The Northwestern Farmers Protective associa- tion has been organized in this city for the purpose of looking after the interests of it's members in the disposal of their wheat and other farm products. It has a mem bership of over 800 in North Dakota and Minnesota. It has elected an agent or manager to be stationed at Duluth, who has given bond of $75, ,00O for the faith ful performance of his duties. He will re- ceive and dispose of all the grain of the members at Duluth or ship it to English markets as deemed advisable.
 An object aimed at by this association will be to ship pure No. 1 hard wheat, without an opportunity for mixing directly to English markets, and, by thus establish ing their grade there: to secure the highest market price, amounting in many instances to considerable percentage over that of the mixed wheat usually shipped. Many of the members have large grain farms, and it is claimed that the association will handle from 3,0O0,000 to 5000, 900 bushels of wheat this year. They have one or two elevators and are building others at various points.
