THE MINISTER'S DAUGHTER.

In the minister's morning sermon,

And how heuCefOrth the wrath or God

And how Of His will and pleasure,
All souls, save a chosen few.

And held IN the way thereto.

But as Christ in the Syrian lilies

Thereafter his hearers noted
In his prayers a tenderer strain,
And never the message OF hatred
Burned on his lips again.

And The blinded eyes found sight,
And hearts, as flint aforetime
Grew soft la his warmth and light.

The Santa Fe to Build TO San

The Southern Pacific Too Greedy for Such
an Important COnnectiOn-The New
Line to be Completed by No
vember, 1898.

CHICAGO, May 27.-Work will begin almost
Immediately on the Atchison extension to
San Francisco. Exactions of the Southern
Pacific have of late become so onerous that
this course is practically forced on the Atchi-
son. OF the hundred millions voted to take
up income bonds, the Atchison will devote a.
much as necessary to the new line. The
building and equipping will cost about $12.-
100000. of which San Francisco alone will
return *, 00O, 900 as a bonus.
It is thought that almost the entire cost of
the line can be betrayed in this way, as there
is an intense feeling against the monopoly of
the Southern Pacific on the coast.
The plan is but continuation of the one
interrupted by the Barring failure, otherwise
the Atchison's terminal would now be across
the bay from San Francisco.
It is thought the line will be completed BY
a year from November. The route will fol-
low the Wilbur Paige survey, and for the
most of its $50 miles from Mojave the track
can be laid for $500 mile.

Work Of the Conference Completed.
OMAHA, NKB., May &-The general con.
ference did much work and proved itself q
conservative body.
1t decided that the constitution of the gen
eral conference and church did not need re-
construction, although the commission sp-
pointed four years ago reported recommend
ing changes.
It decided that NO more bishops were
needed.
1t decided to the time limit on lniterancy
should not be taken of.
1t decided that the church should receive
no more money from the general govern
ment for the support of its Indian mission
schools.
1t recommended to annual conferences
that laymen be given equal representation in
the general conferences.
1t referred to the annual conferences the
question whether the word ''laymen" in the
discipline means men only; with the under
standing that if the annual conferences de-
eide that the word includes women then
women shall hereafter be admitted as dele
gates to the general conference.
1t provided for board to consider the ad-
visibility of an organic union of all Metho-
dist churches in the United States.
1t declared that the church shall under no
circumstances admit any polygamlst.
1t recommended the organization of
church insurance society within the church.
A proposition was sent to the annual con-
ferences to reduce the general conference
one-half, by making the representation one
minister and one layman to every ninety
ministers instead of one to every forty five
ministers.
