AN EARNEST ADDRESS.

At the meeting IF the twenty-third
annual session of tie st. Louis Con-
ference, held in Springfield, CDR.
Hartzell," says the Springfield Leader,
"made an earnest address to the con-
ference on the subject of the proposed
university for cOlored people, located
at Sedalia. He pointed out the duty
of the church to educate the Negro,
and it was the general opinion that
the Methodist Episcopal church was
more competent to educate the negro
than any other denomination. There
were 100000 negroes in the United
States now, and at the present rate of
increase would soon become 80, 000,-
600. His address was instructive and
indicated that the doctor would settle
- e--oStiou ~ ~I..~-.. :O.
He said that the selection of Sc
dalia as the site for The institution
was fortunate one and that the city
had done no5ly by the institution aud
had given twenty-five acres of land
and considerable money towards the
enterprise. The land is worth now at
least $500 per acre and at the present
growth of SedaIia would soon be
worth 81 900. 1t was one ofthe most
beautiful spots in that growing city.
The church has raised IS 900 for the
proposed institution, but needed
considerable more. DIR. Hart
zell stated further that he wOu d
leave to-day for Newton, Kas., to at
tend meeting of the state conference
there and would ask Kansas to con-
tribute. He also intended to 90 to
Iowa to secure assistance. He moved
thst the conference be asked to con-
tribute $4,000 for the enterprise and
that it be portioned off among the
presiding elders, each to secure GER
tain amount awards the total sum.
The motion was unanimously
adopted and the second Sunday of
May was designated to secure money
| for the laudable undertaking."

A PROPOSED CLUB HOUSE

There is considerable talk in Com.
mercial club circles as to building q
club house in Sedalia. The present
quarters of the club are beautiful and
elegant, but the accommodations are
not sufficient. 1t is proposed to erect
a $40, 600 building, having a library
room, an armory and hall suitable
for holding conventions and public
meetings of various kinds. Some OF
the best men in the club favor the en-
terprise, and there seems to be no
reason why it should not be successful
in every particular.

BROWN SPRINGS.

Judge D. c. Metsker informed a
BAzoo representative this afternoon,
that tomorrow morning he will put
some men to work, improving Brown
Springs. The judge thinks the med,
icinal qualities of the water are very
superior and a sure cure for many
complaints. He related one instance
of a friend of his who was badly sfflic-
ted with jaundice. He drank the
water freely and was perfectly cured.
From the manner in which Judge
Metsker spoke, he proposes to make
these springs permanent summer re-

REV. C. NJ. HARRIS INDICATED

Rev. c. NJ. Harris, of Windsor,
whose troubles with the Big Ii K
Baptist church in Cooper county, have
been reported in the papers, was in
the city this MORNING. That the gen.
tlemen fell into the hands of unscru-
pulous enemies cannot now be ques-
tioned-but Mr.. Harris has been fully
vindicated by the leading citizens Of
the neighborhood, and by the men,
bers of both Big Lick and Providence
churches. The members of the Bap-
fist church at Windsor, of which he is
pastor, have also passed resolutions
expressing their condemnation of the
SANDER, and recording their perfect
confidence in the pure Christian char.
acter of Mr.. Harris.
Mr.. Harris was on his way to
Cooper county this morning. He will
resign as pastor of both Big Lick and
Providence churches. He carried
with him a handsome and costly gold
wstch, presented to him since this
trouble arose, by members of the con-
gregations in Cooper county over
which he has had charge for some
years past.

A FALSE ALARM.

About IL o'clock this morning a
report was brought to town that a
dead man had been found lying in a
ditch in the northwest part of the
city. Deputy Sheriff Butler Dixon
made search for the coroner, but
being unable 10 fiud him, drove out to
the scene of the supposed tragedy.
He was disguised to find white man,
not still and pulseless in death, but
simply dead drunk.
The fellow had been lying in a
muddy and watery ditch for several
hours, and was for time thought to
be really dead. The drunken man
was loaded into a wagon brought into
town aud locked up in the calaboose.

FATHER MURPHYLECTURES
In Fayette, on the Catholic
Church, IdOlatry and the
Protestant Bible.

Yesterdays Fay cite Advertiser pub
fishes the following local paragraph:
Father j. T. ID. Murphy, Catholic
priest of Sedalia, delivered a lecture
at the new opera house in this city,
Monday evening, his subject, as adj
vertised, being "The Catholic Church,
Idolatry and the Protestant Bible. I"
This being the first discourse of the
kind the writer ever heard from the
lips of one of that persuasion, the
lecture was especially interesting
aud let us candidly admit, pre-emi-
nently instructive. Reared in the
lap of the Protestant church, whose
ministers and disciples bad fortified
his ears against the accep.ation of any
allegation save that which held in
obliquity both pope and priest, the
writer was surprised indeed to hear
Father Murphy announce with EN-.
phasis. that were a member of the
G. ,tho!ic church to bend his knee in
reverence or alteration to any save
the Supreme God, he would be the
victim of the awful curse Anathema
marinstha, and forced to abandon the
ranks of the church, which, in its
nineteen hundred years of existence,
nos has within its fold the almost in
credible number OF three hundred and
fifty millions of the race.
Father Murphy laid down three
propositions on which he based his ar
guments: the first being that idolatry
was wholly alien to the pale of Cath
olicism; second, that their mode of
petition to God did not aotagonize the
mediatOrship of Christ, and the last
was that The Protestant Bible itself
contained within its sacred lids abso-
lutte proof that the human denizens of
this mundane sphere were perfectly
justified in ssking for the intercession
of saint or angel.

Jim Doyle should be as successful

was in bagging ducks down in Henry
