THE PREsBYTERIANs
Briggs Case Promises to Be the Com
ing Sensation.


Washington, May 21.-Commissioners
to the Presbyterian general assembly,
according to the usual practice in CON
nection with the annual meeting of that
body, occupied most of the local pulpits
to-day. The weather in the morning was
almost perfect-a trifle too warm, per-
haps, for this time of year-and the at
tendance upon the various places of wor-
ship generally greater than the capacities
of the houses could accommodate. This
week is expected to produce the sensation
of the assembly, the debate on
THE BRIGGS CASE.
In just what shape it will come up can
not be definitely stated. The record of the
appeal from the action of tle New York
preSbytery has been placed in the hands
of the judiciary committee of which Rev.
George d. Baker, d. D., of PHILADELPHIA.
is chairman. DR.. Baker, while not the
first choice of the Briggs men in the gen
eral assembly for moderator, gave him
their votes after DR. Dickey had declined
to have his name used as a candidate for
the Office. The committee will probably re-
port Tuesday upon the regularity of the
appeal, and whether or not it should be
entertained coming as it does direct from
the presbytery, without having gone to
the synod. Upon the receipt of that re-
port the debate may be precipitated, al
though the probabilities favor a post
ponement until after the reports from the
boards of the church shall have been
made and considered. These are the
special orders of business at every ses-
sion until that of Thursday morning next.

Romantic Rescue.

In connection with the heavy gale
which upset several windmills and blew
down the waterworhs standpipe.we deem
it not inappropriate to relate romantic
incident which occurred the evening
before the destruction of the majestic
standpiDe.
just as the shades of night were roll
ing her sable curtains down over the
city and outlying suburbs last Friday
evening. a beautiful and buXom lady
might have been seen in a single buggy
driving dun pony north on railroad
avenue at slashing gait. The air was
soft and balmy, and nothing ia nature
indicated the awful doom which was
even then impending over the standpipe,
and wrought such havoc with it in twen-
ty-four short hours. But the lady SEEM
ed endowed with premOnition. While
the noble dun sped nOrthward, the fan
drivers lovely eyes were fixed in the di-
rection of the standpipe with yearn-
ing look. As she came nearer the out
lines of a tall brakeman could be seen
reclining near the base of that lofty
column OF iron and water which lowered
100 feet above his devoted head. He evi.
IDENTIFY did not realize how dangerOu:
il would be 10 remain even one more
day in the place where he then was
that within twenty four short hours the
grass sod On which he sat would be tori
and rent with awful destruction. and I'm.
less he changed his location before thai
time the standpipe would crush him iD-
to shapeleSs mass, but the lady seemed
endowed with supernatural perceptions
for she espied the noble youth who i:
the hero of this tale OF woe, and as she
passed the fated standpipe turned aside
and took him in. The young mans heart
must have swelled with gratitude as he
nestled on the cushion beside the fail
creature who had rescued him, but our
informant could not catch the exact
words in which he expressed his platoon
ic regard for her who had snatched him
from impending doom. The devoted
couple drove out into the darkness of the
vast prairies toward Duck creek so swift.

Moses Liveshitz, farmer living near
kingsdown, called last Monday to cor
rect statement which was prepared by
our late contemporary, to be published
in the Times. and was among the items
rescued from oblivion Dy this paper, to
the effect that he would have thirty bu-
shells per acre. Mr.. Liveshitz said be was
solid in favor of Kansas, but that he
wanted all his statements to be strictly in
accordance with the truth. He said there
was no wheat in that region which would
yield thirty bushels TO the acre. 1t
would yield between five and fifteen bu-
shells per acre. which is very light yield
considering what is customary in this
part of the state. Moses does not seem
at all discouraged. however. He is a
Russian Jew, and we have noticed those
Russian Jews get along well farming in
Western Kansas. There is colony OF
them northwest of here, who came here
with almost nothing, and are now we'll
tO-do farmers.

This region experienced a strong blow
last Saturday evening, which demolished
the standpipe, tore down some wind
mills and light out buildings. The sta
BILE on McLeod's farm north Of the city,
was scattered from the dwelling premises
to the railroad track. Mr.. Porter lives
on the place, and he said the house was
shifted considerably destroying the plas-
tering. He thinks one more blast
would have torn it in pieces and distrib-
uted the remains over the plains, to the
great discomfort and danger of his inval-
id wife and aged mother. The dwelling
was small and narrow. standing broad
side toward the wind, which gave it a
good chance TO be tipped over. 1t was
a novel sight to watch this storm APP

to look black and blue. They swept a.

ed and boiled most ominously. In a
lower altitude OF heavy atmosphere it
would have been very destructive. \

Geo. NJ. Hoover still stands up for
wheat raising in Western Kansas, even
though confronted by an off year. He
was telling the other day about thirty
six acre piece of sod he had broken in
the southeastern part of Ford county.
last season. 1t was done by one of those
hoboes who do not think it requires skill
to farm, and looked so rough Hoover
could not get any one to rent the land
for share of the crop. Therefore he
resolved to farm it on his own account.
Everybody was busy, however, putting
in their own wheat, and it was far in
November. and after election before he
could get a drill into that field. The
armers in that neighborhood had a good
laugh at Hoover's expense over his put
ting in wheat at that time of the
year on such rongh piece of sod. But
the winter SHOWS soaked the ground. II
came up and made one of the best crops
in those parts. 1t will return at least
fifteen bushels to the acre.
r. L. Housed, farmer living four
miles southwest of Bucklin. was in this
city taking in the fourth and fifth of Ju-
IL doings. He is in the midst of bar
vest, having commenced about a week
sgo. They are heading all small grain
this year. Most of il is winter wheat.
Some fields are not worth cutting. The
yield will be light. very few crops MAX
ing as much as fifteen bushels to the
acre. Most of it viii not average over
six bushels to the acre, while some bare
ly pays for harvesting. Rye runs q lit
tie better than wheat, estimated at about
seven or eight bushels to the acre.
Neither wheat nor rye is very plump.
Oats and barley are poor. Not many
fields worth cutting. A few grape vines
have been put out in that region. These
win bear some fruit this season. Con-
siderable broom corn has been planted,
but is not upyet. Sorghum and millet
are starting slowly and are infested with
chinch bugs. Some are sending for Prof.
