The directors of Union Theological

or. the question of the right of the gen
era! assembly OF the Presbyterian church
to veto the transfer of Erof. Charles A.
Briggs from the chair of Hebrew to the
chair of Ethical theology. They say,
after having taken legal advice. they see
10 reason to change their views on the
subject of the transfer Of DR.. Briggs,
and are bound to discharge their duties
under the charter and constitution OF
the seminary and to adhere to them.
The intent of the veto passed by the
general assembly at the recent session
in Detroit was that DR.. Briggs should
cease to be professor in Union seminary.
The effect of the resolution given above
is that it is the Judgment of the direc-
tors that the veto was usurpation OF
the powe,s given or intended to be given
to the general assembly. and since the
veto was illegal the appointment will
stand, and DR.. Briggs will continue Us

The weekly weather crop bulletin
says copious rains in the wheat regions
of the northwest have greatly benefited
the crops during the past week. Corn
is still quite backward in the Missouri
valley. Slight damage by hail is re-
ported in southern Wisconsin and
by the cutworms in Michigan.
In Indiana and Illinois the con-
dition is favorable for all
crops except oats in Indiana. In Mis-
souri, excessive rain has checked the
crop cultivation. but the general outlook
is favorable. In Kansas and Colorado
the condition is favorable, though sun
shine is needed in some localities. In
Oregon general showers have been very
beneficial and the wheat prospects are
especially favorable. In northern Cali
fornia the crops are good, but back
ward: in southern California fruits and

somewhat injured by the cool rainy

schoolmastcr of the Tersk district has,
by his religious ideas and teachings, ex-
cited the religious frenzy of the peasant
inhabitants of the district. as they saw
in him a power which they considered
inimical to the conservative views they
had been taught and the interests they
deemed their duty to protect. They
accordingly held meeting and as a re-
suit they dug mine under the school
house, and during the morning session,
when the room was filled with children,
they proceeded to fire it. A tremendous
explosion ensned and the building was
completely wrecked. Ten children were

It has been objected to those VIII
speak of the "emotions" of an ant Or
bee, for example, that we are not just
fed in applying terms derived from hn|
man psychology to animals so remot4
in structere from the human type. Dr.
Ronlanes replies to this objection By
showing that the ground Of all infer
ences as to the mental processes Of AMI
mails is an argument from the analogy
Of their actions with our own. "Now|
it is OF course perfectly true that thd
less the resemblance the less is the val
lie of any analogy built upon the resea1
blance, and, therefore, that the Inference
OF an aunt or bee feeling sympathy q
rage is not SO valid as the similar infer
eice in the case Of dog or monkey
Still it is an inference, and, so far as il
goes, a valid one-being, in fact ting
only inference available. That is to say
ii we observe an ant or bee apparent

must either conclude that some psyche

MACDONALD IS DEAD.
CANADA MOURNS THE LOSS OF
ITS PREMIER.

No Proper Successor in Sight.
SIR JOHN A. MACDONALD, premier of
Canada is no more. For many pays his
life hung i'll the balance, death being
held at bay by the exercise of his Won
derful will power, but at last he lost
consciousness and then the end swiftly
came. The grief in Canada is intense
and church bells tolling all over the do
minion attest the grief of the populace.
His hand had guided the political des-
tines of Canada for nearly half a century
and he displayed craftsmanship of the
highest order. In the grief of Canada
is the knowledge that no one at present
appears who can assume his place as
premier with the signal ability he always
commanded.
