Large Sums Contributed for Missionary
Work-Proceedlngs

Pittsburg Penn, May 20. - The
scene enacted in .the assembly
taken for the beneft or missionary
candidates was quite as unusual as II
was successful. 1t showed at least the
practical benevolenco OF the ministers
and elders present.
The predDminnnce OF gifts from "lib-
eraf men and churches was remarked
by some Of the commissioners and also
the fact that the largest subscriptions
came from the East.
The.greHt success OF the meeting held
last night in the interest of home mis-
sions caused the Inauguration OF an
overflow tonight IN the Second church,
at which several foreign missionaries
spoke, Most Of the day was devoted to
special missionary ond educational In
terests OF the church.
Vioe-Moderaior Governor Beaver pre-
sided Mt the afternoon session OF the
assembly. The first order was the re-
port OF the committee on education
presented by DR.. Martin Ifuneland Of
Boston, Mass. The usual complaint
against non-contfibuting churches was
made. coupled with n recommendation
that they be urged to send IN their col
leotions, however small. The report
recommends that the amount OF $780,
900 be raised for educational purposes
during the next year, and the board
was directed 10 report whether students
might be required 70 spend year In
missionary work after graduation be-
fore entering upon a regular charge.
This suggestion was carried further by
DIR. White OF Columbus. who proposed
that term OF service should be reQulr-
ed OF all students admitted by the board
for which they should render service
equivalent 10 aid received.
DR.. Edward Hogg then addreHned tho
assembly on the educational work.

Washington. May ESQ far as the
state department knows the French
government has not consented to per-
init Mr.. Walters case to be passed
upon by civil tribunal. It is the de-
sire of this government to bring about
this result, but success so far as known
has not been achieved.
From the manner in which the French
government met the representations
oi Ambassador Eustls the hope has
been entertained that It will reopen
Walters case and institute n fresh in
quiry into all the circumstances lead
ing up to his arrest and also the pro-
ceedings of the court martial, though
as yet there is nothing to Indicate that
1t will permit the civil tribunal to act
de novo In the matter.

WASHINGTON. May %.

The United States has again been
asked to act as mediator In an interna-
tional complication. This time the
trouble Is between France and Nene-
zucla, resulting in complete termina-
tiOn of diplomatic relations between
them. The French minister at Caracas
recently was given his passports,
whereupon France sent two war ships
to take away her minister ana all the
legation archives. At the SAINT time
France handed to the Venezuelan min
Lister at Paris his passports and he
summarily departed.
The request for the mediation of the
United States Ia now made by the
Venezuelan government trough It's
minister at Washington. "a was In
structed by the Venezuela, q mister
OF foreign affairs short WIN 40 TO
request that the United Stat M
bassador at Paris, Mr.. Eustis, be !
to act as mediator IN restoring fflei T.
relations between the two countrit
The United States legation at Caracas
was also notified of the desire of the
Venezuelan government and sent a
recommendation to the state depart
ment that the Office of mediator be
accepted. Department officials will not
discuss the subject and 1t cannot be
learned whether instructions have been
sent to Ambassador Eustls.
Should the United States undertake
the reconciliation 1t will make two
questions in which our officials are
Intermediates with European govern
ments in behalf or Venezuela.
Ambassador Bayard is already en-
gagged In erecting a solution Of the
Brltish-Venezuelan question. The trou-
BILE between France and Venezuela
originated about four months ago. A
number Of Europeans residing at Cara
cas- united in a confidential note to
their respective governments in which
they told of the lax condition OF the
government and the tendency OF Vene-
zuelan officials to avoid the settlement
| Of just claims The note was signed
by the ministers of France, Germany,
| Spain and Belgium. The Italian min
lister did not sign it, but sent 1t to
| his government For information"
BY mischance the "confidential was
omitted from the note and Italy pub
lished 1t with the four signatures OF
the ministers in the Italian Greenbook
Venezuela was thus publicly pilloried
She at once gave the passports to the
| French Spanish and Belgium ministers
but the German minister had already
left By this step Venezuela was al
most cut off from relations with this
leading nations.
Great Britain withdrew her minister
some time ago because of the boundary
trouble. 1t Is with a view of overcom
ing this isolation that Venezuela nov
asks the kindly offices OF the United
States TOWARD Tesuming relations witt
the rest of the world.

WEATHER AND CROPS.
Decial to the Register.

Special TO the Register.
ParkersbUrg, W. Va, September 8
Observer II. L. Ball has issued the fol-
lowing weather and crop bulletin for
the week ending Monday. September 2:
Excessively warm weather prevailed
during the week, the temperature for
the first five days ranging from TO IL
degrees per day above normal. The
last two days of the week were some
what cooler. the temperature falling be-
low the normal both days.
AT the close of August the monthly
temperature was 100 degrees above the
normal, or an average OF 80 degrees
per day higher than is usual for Au-
gust. Since the first of March the tenn
perature was also slightly higher than
usual.
The weeks rainfall was very uneven
~ distributed. In many sections, chief
ly in the Ohio and Kanawha valleys,
heavy showers were received, but over
other sections droughty conditions con-
tinue.
At Parkersburg on August 31st, there
was a deficiency in rainfall during the
month OF PIP inches.
Since March LIST the deficiency in
rainfall has amounted to eight and one
quarter inches. or nearly the usual
amount received during two months.
While these data apply strictly to Par
kersburg and vicinity, they approx
mately represent the conditions that
have existed over the northern sections
of the State. In the southern sections,
especially along the Kanawha valley,
more rainfall has been received.
During the past week more than the
usual amount of sunshine was received,
the days having been warm and bright.
EFFECT ON THE CROPS.
Reports from correspondents indicate
a slightly better condition of the corn
crop than reported in last weeks bull
letin. This is especially true in the sec
tons receiving a sufficient amount Of
rainfall.
In the northern counties the rainfall
was very light, except in the Ohio val
lev. and the droughty conditions con-
tinue unbroken. In these sections the
crOp conditions are poor and corn and
grass are suffering. The drought in
these sections is beginning TO affect the
annie trees. and some correspondents
saw the apples are Of small size. This
is also true Of potatoes, while buck
wheat and gardens are backward.
In the sections where the rainfall
was received IL is said that corn has re-
