Rev. ]. M. Cr6ihLr. Of Kansas City, in
his Now Years scrnnon. ''The church
may easily b. deceived Is TO the attitude
of the enemy. The cry OF modern inf
deity against our religion is growing
fainter. The church has an Opportun-
ity now for peaceful evangelization she
has not had for quarter of q century.
But feeling that because the enemy
has failed even to mar the beauty Of
our religion, much less shake its founda-
ton, it has therefore subsidized, Is apt to
be possessed by many. This must ever
be q mistake. If Satan is not powerful
enough to cast out the good he Is still
powerful enough to reign in spite Of the
good. His failure to hinder christianity
or to turn the popular tide against It
has only sharpened his fury in the dis
play Of his powsr Of doing evil. The
days are evil, and this fact should
sharpen every true Christian to his
whole duty"

ans were IN a friendly mood, and were
inclined to come in peaceably.
Yesterday the Indians were shooting
cattle along the whole line OF march.
They burned their shacks and destroyed
their own property Of every kind save
their guns and ponies. This destroys
all confidence in their expressions OF not
desiring war. The Indians themselves
admit that the chiefs cannot guarantee
to control the warriors. They say that
they have among them about 300 young
bucks who want to fight, and q single
shot will start them. Besides, the In
dams who murdered Lieutenant Casey
are known, and they know that whom
they are taken they will be hanged for
murder. They are among the belliger-
emit young bucks, and they may precipi-
tate fight to save dying by the rope.

To DO Conducted to the Reservation.

Pine Ridge Agency, January 12.-It
is understood that big talk between
three OF the hostiles and General Miles
will be held to-day while the several
bands remain outside the agency.
The stage road to Nashville passes
through the friendly camps, and large
flag has been placed beside the road
bearing the legend, ''These Indians are
friendly"
Captain Ewers will start in q few days
with Little Chiefs band of 400 Chey-
ennes to take them to Tongue River,
Montana. Little Chief and his band for
the last twelve years have been good
friends to the whites and have made
excellent police and scouts. The band
have about 900 relatives on Tongue Riv-
er and have begged for several years to
be transferred to that reservation.
Kicking Bear writes that he will sur
render, but this is regarded with con-
siderable doubt by the military. The
hostiles are moving toward Pine Ridge
agency, but their PROCESS Is quite slow
in consequence OF having about fifty
badly wounded warriors with them.

Captain George D. Wallace was born
in South Carolina, Sune 30, 1S49. He
was graduated from the military
academy at West poin in the class OF
1872. He became second lieutenant Of
the Seventh Cavalry June IA, 1872; first
lieutenant June 25, 1876, and captain
September %, 1885. He served as
adjutant OF the Seventh cavalry from
June %, 1876, to June, 1877.
Captain Wallace was stationed at
Fort Riley, Kas. He was brave man.
He was in command OF X troop of his
regiment. Wallace was in Reno's COM
mand at the time of the Custer mass
acre. When Reno was driven to cover
Wallace's adjutant fell from his horse
mortally wounded. Wallace threw
himself from his horse under terrific
fire from the savages, seized the wound
ed man, vaulted into his saddle and
bore the officer toward the rear. The
officer knew that he was dying, and
told Wallace to drop him and save him
self. Wallace carried the officer over
mile, forded two streams, and was near
ing place of safety, when the savages
got so close that he had to abandon the
officer in the brush, dismOunting for
that purpose, and remounting after he
had hidden him away. He was under
hot fire all the time, and showed un-
limited pluck.
Lieutenant Earnest A. Darlington
was born in south Carolina, and was ap-
pointed cadet in the United States
military academy from Georgia in July,
1872, and was graduated June 10, 1876.
He became second lieutenant Of the
Seventh cavalry June Is, 1876, and first
lieutenant June Is OF the same year.
He accompanied the expedition for the
,relief of Lieutenant Greedy to the artic
regions in 1883. When his ship, the
Proteus, was lost in Smiths sound,
Darlington retired with the crew to
Upper Mark, nearly 500 miles away.
Darlington was the adjutant of the
Seventh cavalry at the time of the Gus
ter massacre, or soon after, and he was
the officer who signed the order placing
the only living representative Of civil
ization who escaped alive from the
scene of that awful slaughter on the
pension roll. 1t was q horse which,
SCARED and manned, came back rider
less to the regiment, and was always
cared for pensioner as Of the govern
ment.

~ The Pona,n Rrnthar.

Cardinal Joseph Pecci, brother of Pope
Leo XIII, celebrated the other day the
fiftieth anniversary of his admission to
holy orders. Before the end of the year
he will be so years old, having been born
Dec. 10, 1907. He was q member Of the
order of Jesuits and great student. For
reasons which he never made known, he
withdrew from the order in 1851. That
step might have thrown him out of the
clerical career had he not been appointed
professor of philosophy at the seminary of
Perugia, where his brother, the present
pope, was bishop at the time. When the
states Of the church were conquered by
the King of Italy, Pecci refused to take
the oath Of allegiance and was deprived of
his professorship. But his brother. who
had meanwhile been elected pope, again
came to his assistance by appointing him q
cardinal and employing him in several
clerical occupations at the vatican. Nepot.

ADIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
Farmers Demand That Only Agriculture be
Taught In the Iowa Agricultural
College.

The board OF trustees of the Agricul-
tural College is in session here, and the
meeting is exciting an unusual degree
of interest. Besides the board there
are present, sitting as seperate bodies,
the faculties of the college, Professor
Stanton acting President, the confer
ence committees eff faculty and trustees,
and special committees representing
the Farmers Alliance, the State Dairy
Convention, and the Stock Breeders
Association, making in all about forty
prominent men interested in promoting
the welfare of the college. The trustees
are to elect a President and several
members OF the faculty to fill vacancies,
including q professor of agriculture.
There are some apparently irreconcila-
BILE differences Of opinion as to the policy
to be pursued, one party favoring the
present educational course, with slight
notifications, and the other party urg-
ing that agriculture shall be the one
aim and the one course Of study to be
pursued. The latter would strike out
all branches OF science and literary stud
les not directly related to agriculture.
For the Presidency but two names are
discussed, Professor E. w. Stanton, OF
the faculty and William w. Beard
shear, of Des Moines, formerly president
of Western College at Toledo, Iowa. To
day the representatives of the various
farmers organizations held conference
and after prolonged discussion agreed
upon the following propositions to be
submitted to the trustees: l. A thorough
reorganization of the course of study,
excluding all classical and scientific
studies that do not have direct bear
ing upon agriculture and the mechanic
al arts. 2. The establishment Of q dairy
school. 3. The election Of William
Beardshear for president. 4. The cleo
ton OF James Wilson for professor Of
agriculture with at least one assistant.
3. The retention of the experimental
station as it Is. Mr.. Wilson Is not a
candidate for the professorship OF agri-
culture, and it is doubtful If he would
accept it if rendered him.

special diSpatch this morning. from
6catello, Idaho, says that Indians are
burning the town. Troops have been
asked for from Boise City.
An earlier dispatch from Pocatello
said: ''The Indians on the Fort Hall
reserve have been dancing, and 200
bucks in war paint have been TO the
mountains with arms, causing great
excitement.
Governor Wiley has been asked to
order the militia to Pocatello, and pro-

The Indians on the reserve number
200 or 1900, more than half OF whom

The belief is expressed that If the
Indians at Pocatello go on the war
path, they will be joined by the tribes

This is the theory upon which, tho change is advocated. Those who go home from boarding schools or semi naries to spend Sunday. leave Friday night and return Monday morning, often late for recitations and usually nnpre- pared. Monday morning has thus never been satisfactory to teachers or pupils at such schools. Tardy rettrns Monday morning seem unavoidable, not only be- cause trains are infrequent Sunday. but also because parents do not want their children to travel that day.
 With the change proposed pupils can get home as easily after school Saturday as they can Friday. Their Sunday is un- disturbed, and parents are disposed to start them back to school Monday after noon. Tuesdays lessons can thus be prepared Monday evening. In le,s de- gree the experiment. hss proved beneti- cial also to pupils who live at or near the school. Saturday study is out of the question when that day is q holiday, and Sunday study never did find favor with pupils or parents. The-new order reme- dies all that. York Times.

The Honeymoon.

A reader asks, "How did the name honeymoon come to be applied to the first month after marriage?" :, .....
 Two or three explanations have been offered of this singular expression. but the most reasonable and satisfactory is that suggested by work on German antiquities. In this it is stated that from very early times it was the prac. tice among the Germans to drink mead and honey at wedding festivities, which commonly continued for thirty days, whence the first month spent together by the married couple came to be called the honey month.
 The same authority regards the we'd ding tour as relic of the times when men stole their wives and were obliged for season to hide themselves from the wrath of offended relatives of the bride. It is said that in some parts of Tartary and India at the present day, although women are no longer stolen for wives, the forms of capture are kept up, and for several weeks the newly welded pair either remain in seclusion or absent themselves from the tribe to which they belong.

a THE ARIZONA SUGAR COMPANY o

The farmers who may subscribe to the stock of the company will have vital and personal interest in the production of sugar beets. yy 8-. y
 Farmers and capitalists can estimate the chances of joss and gain as well az the directors of the company, but it may le promised that agricultural land free from taxation forms safe investment, and that machinery which can be ins- ported free of duty and enjoys immu- nity from taxation, is only subject to loss by fire, which can be covered by insurance.
 Land in Arizona will produce at least twenty tons of sugar beets per acre, twice annually.
 The market price will depend upon the quantity of saccliarine.
 Sugar beets require neither bagging nor storage; but are cash dt the mill, and the company might even be able to ad- vance money on unencumbered land de- voted to their cultivation. It is matter of consequence in some parts of Arizona that, sugar beets ex- ! tract alkali from the soil better than any other production.
 After supplying the home market in Arizona with sugar, molasses, confec- tions, etc., transportation is the most serious question, and the smaller bulk the production of the country can be reduced into the better for the producer.
 Sugar will bear transportation better than hay, grain, or ores.
 A sugar mill at some railway depot with capacity of 100 tons per day, at s5 per ton for sugar beets, would be a great benefit to the farmers and mer- chants of AIizona. -r.
 The cooperative system of offering the farmers one-half of the capital stock payable in the productions required for the mill has worked well in Germany and France, and in fact the co6perative system in every country is the out growth of civilization. "
 The farmers interest in the company will be a guarantee to the nonresident shareholders of vigilant watchiulness over the management. and by united ef- 'fort staple production may be intro duced in Arizona which will enliven the source of all permanent prosperity AGRICULTURE.
 It is not to be overlooked that after the saccharine matter is extracted from sugar beets the residium forms excellent food for sheep, cattle, hogs, poultry, etc., and nothing that comes from the soil is wasted.
 The cultivation of sugar beets may be carried on by the least intelligent labor. Indians, MeXicans, children may all be employed in transplanting the beets and I gathering the crop. Only the mill re- quires intelligent labor.
 z Sugar industries are being started in many States of the Union less adapted by nature to the growth of saccharine products than Arizona, and an effort on the part of the residents may encourage assistance from abroad.
Arizona republican., 1891-07-04

The capital stock of the company is one hundred thousand 100000 shares of ten tsl0) dollars each.
 One-halfy of the capital stock will be sold in the Territory of Arizona, payable in land adapted to the cultivation of sugar beets, sugarcane sorghum and sac charine products at the market price.
 The other half will be sold for cash, at not less than par, for the purpose of pur- chasing, importing and erecting machin. cry adapted to manufacturing domestic sugar.
 The fifty thousand shares reserved for the farn,ers can be paid for at any time within five years from the date of the organization in land or its saccharine productions, such as sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, etc., etc., and the sub scribers will be entitled to draw a divi- dend pro rata on payments made. The fifty thousand cash shares must be fully paid on delivery, and will be entitled to a full dividend semi-annually.
 It is reasonably expected that the company can declare dividend of 25 per cent per annum on current business, and have some land left.
 After the capital stock shall have been disposed of and one-half fully paid in cash, the company will be authorized to issue equal to one-half of the capital stock, bonds secured by mortgage, upon all the property of the company, pay able in twenty years, with interest at the rate of 5 percentum per annum, payable semi-annualIy, for the purpose of devoting the proceeds to the purchase of land, and for no other purpose; pio- vided, always, that these bonds cannot be issued nor mortgage on the prop er.y executed without the approval of a majority of the shareholders.
 The Government of the United States offers to pay bounty of two cents per pound or 70 dollars per ton on domestic manufactured sugar, and to admit free of duty, until the first day of July. 1892, all machinery required for it's manu- facture. ..a. ..H . .-
 The Territorial Legislature, at it's last session, passed an act .exempting all land used in the cultivation of sugar beets. as well as the plant and machin. cry employed m the manufacture of do, mestic sugar, from taxation for ten years. s-sN. 7 We imported from foreign countries during the last fiscal year, sugar, nit'- lasses, candy and confectionery to the value of slUl ,2a3, ,S26, or sent away up wards of one hundred million dollars, which can Le retained at home by erl. couraging the manufacture of domestic sugar.
 ! The average yield of saccharine matter from sugar beets in France is only y6 per cent, in Germany 10 per cent.
 | In California the average yield is l5 3 per cent. / It is confidentlybelieved that the soil and sun of Arizona will yield a much larger polarization from sugar beets than France, Germany, California, or any other country; and if these premises are correct. the profits will exceed that of any other sugar factory in the United States
