Rev. Don s. Colt Dclive' IN Interesting Dis
course at Salvation Army.


Rev. Don S. Colt preached at the Sal
walton Army barracks last night. and
the attendance was very large. There
was also present a large number of
church members of the city. The min
lister took for his theme THE Power of
God to Assist Man to Overcome the In
firmities to which the flesh was
Heir" A large portion of the discourse
was with reference to the power OF
intemperance. He drew graphical
pictures of how strong drink overcame
the manhood until temporal and spirit
ual interests of a man in society, were
destroyed. He related a number of
touching instances of the effects of
strong drink, and was convinced that
he was addressing men at that time
who abided with that which destroys
both the body and soul. Kind hearted,
generous men We're reduced to physical
and moral wrecks, but he thanked
God that he could give to every man
there a sure receipt to overcome the
evil of intemperance. That the power
of the Holy spirit was able to re-
move the appetite from every person
present, and they could again become
sober men. The power of God was
promised by one whom had never failed
to keep His word. My grace shall he
sufficient for you had stood for ! 900
years and was tested in every age. and
thousands of men could testify to the
saving and keeping of grace of God in
all trials and tribulations. His appeal
was earnest and bore fruit by several
persons making a start for a better
life.
1t is rather a new move for the
ministers of Wichita TO unite with the
Salvation Army in their work and the
novelty of a minister preaching in the
army barracks was not not only novel
but created a good feeling.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June S.
Hoar's resolution to set
at rest the claim of the United
States against the estate Of the late
Leland Stanford come over from
yesterday and was laid before
Senate at the opening ses-
sion today. Teller suggested
a resolution be modified
as to confine inquiry to be made
simply to the advisability Of re-
leasing the Stanford estate without
any way touching the validity Of
the claim in order not to affect
other claims which the govern
ment might have never agreed to
modify the resolution. In accord
ance with this suggestion, after
some further discussion Allen, Of
Nebraska, moved to lay the resolu-
ton on the table. The motion was
carried, by a vote Of "a to IS.
The tariff bill was then laid be-
fore the Senate, and Cullom took
the floor and delivered a speech on
the general historical phases of the
tariff question.

Accident on Colorado Central.

GOLDEN, Col, June Sat IL
o'clock a message was received
here saying that a passenger train
on the Colorado Central railroad,
which left Denver at S:35 a. M,
had rolled into Glover creek three
miles west of this city. Doctors
were at once sent to the scene of
the accident. No particulars have
been learned. 1t was undoubtedly
caused by the bad condition of
the track caused by recent floods.
The Central was opened to traffic
yesterday, having been blocked for
a week by washouts. Usually the
morning passenger train carries
about $50 passengers, but it is be-
lieved the number today was
