After it has been used and

The Epworth League.

OMAHA, May Gone of the most i'm
portant works of the Methodist general
conference, now in session here will be
its legislation for the Epworth league,
the young peoples society of.the church
This organization, which has grown up
entirely within the quadrennium, has
developed in a remarkable manner. Its
third anniversary will be celebrated
May 18th, when great meetings of young
people will be held in many churches
On the 22d inst. the Epworth league
will have full swing at Omaha, and vast
preparations are being made for the oc-
casion by the committees at the seat of
the conference. This society has nearly
8, 900 chapters and an estimated mem
bership of about 500, 900. It has also
been adopted as the young peoples so-
ciety of the Methodist Episcopal church
south and the Methodist church of Cam
ada. The first international convention
will be held in Cleveland, July, 1893.
The general conference will probably
elect general secretary for the society,
and make provision for its work as a
part Of the church machinery.

THOSE APPEALING ABLE TO PAY.
One Cent Sure to Be the Rate, But Not
just at Present.
FARMERS FAVOR FREE nELrvrnr
Half the Letter Rates Would
Cost Sao,ooo,ooO

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Not a little
good paper is being wasted in petitions
to congress for an immediate reduction
of letter postage to cent. 1t is one of
the moral certainties of the future that
I-cent postage will be supplied. But we
have already, weight and distances con-
sidered, the cheapest postage IN the
world. There is no hardship to any part
OF the public in keeping the letter rate
at 2 cents until the postoffice revenues
warrant sweeping reduction. The
present appeals for 1-cent postage comes
almost entirely from the big cities, and
especially from business firms which
mail large quantities of letters daily. It
is evident that there is no appreciable
burden upon the masses of the people in
maintaining the 2-cent rate for the pres
ent. A reduction to l cent would pri-
marily benefit the very class that is best
able to pay it's postage bills. The farm
ers and other dwellers in the country are
much more interested in securing free
postal delivery than in reduction OF
postage. When the letter rate was reduced
from cents to 2 cents deficit In the
annual postofice revenues was created
That deficit has never been overcome,
although at the present rate of increase
few years more will bring the post
Office revenues to self sustaining basis.
But, while the last reduction was only
one-third of the whole, the present
proposition is to reduce the revenues
from letter postage by one-half. The
annual deficit, it is estimated, would be
increased at a single stroke something
like $20,o00.0O0. The treasury could not
stand it just now, even if the demand
for 1-cent postage were more urgent
than it is.

Valuable aid to Purifcation of
PoIftics---Mfnor Mention.

CHICAGO, May 6.-The situation in
this campaign year, as regards the inde-
pendent vote, is different from that of
any former presidential campaign. This
opinion is based on comparison of
election re turns in recent years in the
central western states with those east of
the Alleghanies. 1t is claimed that for
ten years past the republican and dem
ocratic strength in the western states
has been steadily growing together, as
far as stalwart votes go, until there is
now hardly any appreciable-d difference
between them. But in the west the
greatest development of the independent
vote is also shown. This is placed as
high as ten per cent. of the whole, suffi-
cient to turn the tide of national cleo
ton on national issues. There is some
force in the argument that the ordinary
close states; New York, Indiana and
Connecticut; are generally decided by
the floating vote, and not by genuine
independence among the intelligent
electors. But these conditions are pass
ing away. The doubtful states of the
future will probably be in the Miss
issippi valley. Their uncertainty will
not be due to meager floating vote,
but to freedom from party dictation
when important national issues are at
stake. When this fact becomes appar-
ent, political managers win pay no more
attention to issues than to campaign
funds. Independence at the polls will
not dispense with the work of the great
parties. But it will be a valuable aid to
the publication of politics. When two
closely matched parties are confronted
with an independent vote sufficient to
turn the scale either way, the men and
measures they put forward for approval
will be the best.

Wo1ves From MInnesota.

CoNcoRD, Ia., May 6.-Starving and
ferocious wolves from upper Minnesota
are destroying livestock in this county,
and across in Illinois, at an expensive
rate, and in some places human life is
not safe because of their ferocious ma
ture. They have been driven out of their
seelusion in the Minnesota forests, by
fires of the early fall and winter left the
wild beasts without any kind of food,
and they came down the ice on the Mis-
sissippi river and sought food and shell
ter among the farmers in Hancock
county, and in other localities. From
many sources come reports of losses oi
domestic animals, and a general on
slought on wolves will be begun. The
farmers, however, are at loss as to a
successful method of warfare against the
undesired immigrants. The wolves, by
their hunger, are bolder than the dogs
and the latter are unwilling to attack
them.

Down To Death.

ST. LOUIS, May 6.-Four coaches of
the Chicago limited, from SaniFrancisco,
went through bridge on the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe, near Medill, Mo-,
yesterday morning. The disaster was
caused by water spout, the falling
rains carrying away the bridge. The
train plunged directly into the water
from the broken rails. The cars must
have been piled on top of one another
The wrecked cars are the engine, tender,
baggage car, coach, chair-car, tourist
sleeper and one Pullman. The dead
and injured were taken to Fort Madison
The killed were mostly from points in
Missouri, and of the injured fifteen are
resident of Chicago. At the scene of the
accident fifty-foot arch spans what is
usually dry ravine. 1t is supposed the
heavy rains weakened and finally dis
placed it. This train is usually well
filed with the best class of passengers,
score of whom are believed to be
drowned. Among the killed are the
engineer and fireman.

in whom the Indians have confidence,

There Are Some of Them Left in Lower
California.
The members of Wright's surveying
party, who came in from the interior
last Monday, report having seen two
small bands of wild horses ON the llanos
or plains between Trinidad and Santa
Catarina valleys. The horses were
extremely timid, and when they
caught sight of the men they
started off in an opposite di-
rection at full speed, led by hand
some roam of magnificent proper
tions. All the horses of both bands
were apparently of American breed
ing, and one, large grey, which was
larger and could not run as fast as
the others, is supposed to be a horse
that formerly belonged to the Inter-
national company, but which strayed
three or four years ago and was never
heard of afterward. The Indians at
Santa Catarina have occasionally
caught one of these wild horses in a
corral but never by chase, as the
danger to their own animals in running
full speed through the large fields Of
cactus is too great, and moreover the
wild horses are almost without excep-
ton f1eeter of foot than the Indian 8

Extraordinary CAPTURE of a Hawk,

On one of the cold mornings during
the cold spell a large hawk pounced upon
one of Benjamin Haller's tame ducks
that at the time were in pool of fresh,
unfrozen water in the canal bed short
distance beyond the "third loci" at Mace
donia. The hawk fastened it's claws
around the neck of the fowl close to its
body, but the duck was in deep water,
and true to it's nature it ducked and drew
the hawk with it under the water.
Again the duck dove, which was too
much for his hawkship. The hawk re-
leased its hold on the duck and with diff
Guilty Topped its way to the shore. The
weather was cold and froze the feathers
of the hawk together SO that it could not
fly. William Haller was witness of
the capture and escape game between
the hawk and duck, and when it was all
over he took hand at the game by cap
turing the hawk. The bird measured
8 feet 6 inches from the tip Of one wing
to the tip of the other wing. g.-Juniata
