Suggestion for a Summer Trip.

If you wish to take the trip of a
lifetime, purchase the low rate ex-
cursion tickets sold by all principal
lines in the United States and Canada
via the Northern Pacific Railroad to
Yellowstone Park, Pacific coast and
Alaska.
The trip is made with the highest
degree of comfort in the elegant vesti-
buled trains Of the Northen Pacific
Railroad.
The scenery en- route is the most
magnificent to be found in the seven
states through which the road passes
The browning glory of the trip
through the Northwest, however, is
the visit to Yellowstone Park, the
land of hot springs, geysers and gor-
geous canOns, and to Alaska with its
endless ocean channels, snowcapped
peaks, Indian. villages and giant 'gla-
cierS.

NOTES OF THE STORM.

The worst storm of the year visited
Southern Minnesota yesterday after
noon, and as result three of our rail-
roads were more or less knocked out
last night and this morning. The
Milwaukee road was in the worst
shape, and it's wires were down in all
directions until this noon. Owing to
the tornado at. Minnesota Lake the
evening train was unable to proceed
further than Mapleton, and laid by
there for the night. The track was
covered with snow sheds and other
debris. One message was received at
the depot in this city before the wires
went down last evening, saying that
Minnesota Lake had been swept by a
cyclone at about 4:3O o'clock and that
many buildings had been destroyed
and several people injured, and that
two had been killed in the country.
Portions of the destroyed buildings
had been blown upon the track.
Nothing more was heard until mes
sage was received at the Western
Union office this morning confirming
the reports of damage at Minnesota
Lake and saying that five or six
bodies had been brought in from the
country. The cyclone at Minnesota
Lake was the main topic of CONVEX
sation on the streets, and large num-
beers of our citizens visited the Mil
waukee depot in search of news, of
which there was great scarcity.
Later reports show that no damage
was done at Minnesota Lake.
A very bad washout occurred on the
Omaha road near Blakely and No.
which is due from the north at lilo
pm, did not arrive even this after
noon. No. 2, leaving here from the
north at 400 am, was held at Kasota
or St. Peter until the washout could be
repaired. There were rumors on the
street of a bad storm at WinnebagO
City, pbut this could not be confirmed
at the depot.
The morning train from the east on
the Northwestern road was delayed
by a washout near Rochester, but
this was soon repaired. The wires
went down last evening and were not
gotten in shape for use until this
morning.
In this city the rainfall was heavy.
Dark clouds hung over the city
throughout yesterday, and at about
A O'Clock the atmosphere became very
sultry and everyone knew that a heavy
rain would soon follow. The clouds to
the southwest assumed a peculiar
form and many gazea at them with
wonder. Very soon the rain poured
down in, toIEentsr and continued with
slight interruptions throughout the
nightS ItMasaccempanied bytyfSid
flashes Of lightning and heavy thun-
der claps. This forenoon the down.
pour again set in and business might

OMAHA, May 25.-The Methodist conference
this morning adopted report commenting the
objects Of tho Worlds fair, urging that 1T be
closed on Sundays, and recommen ling the ap-
pointnent OF commission to make q church
exhibit u. the fair. The report recommending
that ministerial and lay delegates be seated
separately AT the next general conference was
adopted. The report OF the judiciary committee
to the effect that bishops have the veto power
over the action of the book committee in all
matters pertaining to elections, but have no
right to vote in the meetings OF the book COM
mittee, was adopted. The committee on lay
representation reported in favor OF equal
lay and clerical representation. An amendment
to refer the matter to the annual conferences
was defeated by the votes of the lay delegates.
vote was then ordered on the adoption OF the
report OF the committee, which resulted: Lay
mea-For. 143; against, IL. Ministers-For, 1877;
against, les. The chairman held that the re-
port was adopted by concurrent vote OF both
orders, but objection was made that 1t required
atwo-thirds vote. A motion was made to refer
the matter to the judiciary committee.
AT the afternoon session the report OF the
committee on episcopacy, touching the actions
Of Bishops Taylor and Thobum in Ordaining
missionaries and deaconesses, was adopted 1t
practically sustained tho action OF the bishops.
lively contest took place over an effort to
unite the order OF deaconesses and the Woman's
Home Missionary Society by placing the
formers work under the supervision Of the
latter. After lengthy wrangle the matter
was left exactly where it has been for the
past four years, under the care of the
conference. at the evening session the judi
ciary committee reported question of
law as TO whether it required two
thirds majority OF both orders or two-thirds
minority OF the aggregate vote OF the confer
ence to adopt a report when a clear majority of
both orders was in favor Of adoption. This had
IN fhs t-nto fha inn f
the equal Lay representation, which had Il two
thirds majority of the aggregate and majority
OF both orders. The committee reported
opinion that the report of the committee favor
ing equal iay repTes sntation had been adopted.
The report was thereupon adopted, and the
question now goes to the annual conferences
for consideration.

ference WAS LETT with the book committee. The

Professor Briggs, they said, had not been
elected to the chair Of biblical theology but
had been ''transferred'' TO that chair from the
chair OF Hebrew, which he had long filed.
This attitude of the Union directorate has
stirred up much feeling. Presbyteres in all
parts of the country that ruled by the con-
servative element have refused TO send their
ministerial candidates to Union in consequence.
A few presbyteries have gone so far az to ask
the general assembly to cut Union off from tn
church entirely. This is asking too much,
though Union is too valuable a property and
too great a power to lose. Consequently there
is party determined to hold Union at all haz-
ards, and this party argues that the directors
can tie disciplined if they refuse to recognize
the authority of the general assembly. That
claim does not bother the majority of the Union
directors, though. They say that the seminary
Is independent of the general assembly under
its charter, and that the compact of 1870, by
which the power to veto elections to the faculty
was given to the general assembly, was really
Illegal.
To make the matter more complicated. Lane
Theological seminary at Cincinnati, founded by
the Rev. DR.. Lyman Beeeher in 1870, and one OF
the strongest Presbyterian seminaries in the
country, has in its faculty several ministers who
are very close to Professor Briggs in their views.
Cincinnati Presbyterians of the old school have
long been trying to rid the seminary OF them Tor
this reasou but without success
