formerly a druggist, who sold ont his
preparatory to entering college, had said
that he intended to place Koch under
peace bond. claiming that he,
Koch, had made the remark that
he would kill him. The reporter
repaired at once to the Farmers drug
store, where he saw Mr. Koch. Koch said
that he had made no such threats and
that the rumOrS were circulated simply
for fun, He is angry at Blair, however,
as he claims he purchased the drug store
from him with the understanding that he
was not to again go in business. and says
that the promise has been broken.

Cooper of this city, some time since,
writes to the Albany Times-Union, as
follows on his views of Redwood Falls
and Minnesota:
From Minneapolis I journeyed via
the Minneapolis and st. Louis railway,
which is part of the Great Rock
Island system, and were rapidly car
ried 133 miles distant to the cosy city
of Redwood Falls-66O miles from
Chicago. The latter place has many
elegant residences. It was here Wis

under cultivation.

its scenery magnificent, and it's air
pure and bracing. Its wheat crop the

portion grades as number two. The
price per bushel is 55 cents instead of
g. cents, as in 1891.

says that she is indeed captivating

mends her for drilling abilities shown
in connection with class entertain

Miss Preston is one of the finest el-

Yes, one of the greatest lines of

OF these rumors are true is it not to
our advantage to have it run into this

Rev. John Sinclair Jumps on to

A Harvest Festival at the Methodist
Church Led by Rev. |. |.
Hanscome.


q harvest festival last Sunday. In
the morning Rev. L. L. Hanscome
preached a lengthy sermon on the
fruits of the season and in the even
ingsthere was a general jubilee with
songs, readings, etc. The choir was
increased to eight, Messrs. Fish, Frank
Clayson. H. NJ. Hitchcock and Clyde
Darling and Misses Grace Darling,
Belle Clayson, Agnes Hitchcock and
Daisy Clayson occupying the box with
Miss Myrtle March at the organ. The
altar railing was hidden under lot of
sprigs of evergreen and corn, and the
altar itself was covered with apples,
grapes and popcorn. A table in front
OF the altar was loaded with potatoes,
onions. carrots, popcorn and turnips,
fruit basket filed with apples and
grapes in the center and at the tables
feetfwo huge pumpkins and squash
rested. Hanging from the center of
the arch was a huge bell of wheat
with beet striker and on either side
OF the arch were punches of corn,
grapes and apples. During the sing
ing and responsive reading Miss
Marian Everett, in a rich, impressive
style read "King Robert of Sicily"
and later Rev. Hanscome sang solo
with chorus accompaniment in man
ner that placed the audience on the
brink of applauding. A scripture les
son followed and sermon came next.
''The man with the blues could find
no consolation with the minister" Mr..
Hanscome thought. ''There is moth
ing tie matter with his heart. The
trouble lies in his liver" Mr.. Hans
com said that the man who did not
work was a menace to society and
from such men came our rogues,
thieves aud thugs, our bank crackers
and the men who walk in our sleeping
rooms. The working man was far Eus
perior to the idler and he was glad to
recognize him as such. A song ''God
bless our native land" closed the
festival.
A SHAN METEOR.
At the Presbyterian church morn
ing services Rev. John Sinclair used
as his text Blessed are the poor in
spirit for theirs is the Kingdom of
Heaven" He thought that the key
note of this sermon of Jesus was hap
piness, joy and peace to the poor in
spirit. He did not believe that the
proper construction of the sentence
was temporal poverty or prediction
that man should give away all that
he had. Indeed, he. said, he knew of
a wealthy lady who constructed a
magnificent temple of worship III the
center of the blue bells of Scotland
church with spires and turrets to
equal any modern structure left
her relations penniless. This he did
not think was done from religious SEN
timent, but merely an attempt to buy a
way to Heaven. Mr.. Sinclair thought
that life was pretty much sham and
here he gently scorched some prac-
teal jokers at the Commercial House.

in SENATE AN0 HOUSE.
A Test Vote on the Anti-option Bill-A
Silver Discussion.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The senate
presented two surprises yesterday-a
brief silver debate and test vote on
the anti-option bill. The silver question
came up through some correspondence
put in by Mr.. Palmer, of Illinois, tend
ing to show that it would take two years
and half to coin the silver bullion now
in the treasury, as required by the
Stewart bill, without entering upon any
new coinage. Mr., Morgan insisted that
this was an anti-silver argument con-
certed between the senator from Illinois
and the secretary of the treasury, and
he proceeded to address the senate upon
it until ruled off the floor. On motion
of Mr.. Washburn, by decisive vote of
33 to Is (Which really was "a to Ia, as
Mr.. Hawley voted nay by mistake) the
senate agreed to take up the anti-option
bill. Though the bill was subsequently
sent back to the calendar, it remains
liable to be taken up for action by O
similar vote at any time.
Mr.. Voorhees, introduced labor arbi-
tration resolution, indirectly referring
to the Homestead troubles, which. un-
der objection, was laid over. No con-
clusion was reached as to the Sunday
closing of the Worlds fair, but it was
agreed to take vote today and to limit
debate by the fve-minute rule.
