DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 16.-In a fit of
bravado, Patrick Mcqueen, the most
expert swimmer on the Detroit river,
climbed to the top of a 7O-foot schoon-

from there to the water below. Half
way down he seemed to lose control of
himself and turned several times in
midair, striking on his back in the
water with terrific force. He was
quickly picked up and his back found
to be broken, lie died few hours

list of candidates for the congressional
nomination. That we are pleased goes
without saying. Mr.. Turrell is the
strongest man the party can nominate,
and what is still better, he can undoubt-
edly be elected. He has had large leg
islative experience and is sterling
man. His own county, Redwood, is
loyal to him and highly pleased with his
record in the last legislature, Lyon
county is equally enthusiastic, as is al
so Brown. In fact, [ know of no op-
position to him.
s'Of course there are other candi-
dates. j. T. McClearv, institute con-
ductor of the Mankato Normal, is out
for the nomination. He bases his can
didacy on the fact that he has studied
political economy and has written a
text book on civil government. OF
practical politics he knows little. Davis,
of St. Peter, is talked of, but we're a
little afraid of him up here, as we don't
know whether he is Democrat or an
Alliance man. but do know he is not a
good Republican. Lieut..Gov Ives is
holding on too long between the COVER
norship and congress. I believe the
fight will be between Turrell and Nc
ClearY with the chances greatly in favor
of the former. We're all for Turreli up
this way. We believe the confidence
which he inspires in the farmers will
neutralize the threatened combine be-
tween the Democrats and the ALI

has whetted the appetite of the public for
more of the sport. It is likely that games
will be arranged with Tacoma. Portland

would take place until the latter part of
the month. In order to keep up the local
interest plan is being talked of to organ.

Hereto Briggs Making . Good Defense.
NEW YoRR. Nov. SO. AT the opening Of
Prof. Briggs trial this afternoon, DIR.
Francis Brown Reed objected to the trial
proceeding, on the ground that there was
no case, as the presbytery had dismissed
the same charges now presented after the
hearing on November 4. 1891. There was
an animated debate between the members
Of the committee and Briggs adherents.
Briggs waived the third objection and DR..
Brown moved that the fourth objection b
ustained. objecting to the relevancy OF all
proofs from the Scripture, confession and
cateehism. This, after an amendment re-
curing removal of proofs from the specifi-
cations to the charge, was carried. and

another point scored by the defendant.
DR.. Southworth then moved that, in view
Of Briggs objection to the offer of whole
sale evidence. the clause in the eighth
charge offering the whole inaugural adj
dress, the whole Scripture and the whole
of the Presbyterian standards be stricken
out. On roll call the motion was declared
lost by two votes. Briggs asked that an
exception be entered in his behalf on the
record, and an adjournment was taken un-

Prof. Smith admitted that he wrote the
articles cited. and said that he had no tes-
t;mony to offer in defense. DR.. Lowe, of
~ prosecuting committee, urged him to
o6er something by way Of disavowal Of
vbat the committee charged his articles
Taught, but defendant stood on his rights
and said he preferred to disprove the COM
mittees charge, not to disavow or to give
an Interpretation of his language that was
not warranted.
Lowe made the opening argument. main
tanning that Prof Smith, while inquiring
into the principles OF the church, had done
II in such way in those articles as to in
lure the peace and purity of the church,
because, if the church organization is to
be maintained. it was indispensable that
the Bible be regarded as absolutely in
iallible.
Prof Smith replied with brevity. He
complained again of the ambiguity Of the
charge. He denied disloyalty to the
church, and said the articles were written
to maintain the authority of the church.
Summing up. he said there was no evi.
dence to show that he impugned the
Westminster doctrine or assailed the
fundamental principles of the church
order as set forth in the form of govern.
nent; or that he taught disloyalty to the
church, or in any way injured the peace OF
purity of the church.

He was careful to say that the question
