A SERMON TO CHILDREN.
MANY LITTLE FOLKS HEAR
EVANGELISE GUERRANr
At the First Presbyterian Church
A Large Audience Attends the
Night Service-Other News

Night Service-Other News.
"Suffer little children to come unto
me and forbid them not, for Of such is
the Kingdom Of Heaven" was what
Christ said.
Hundreds of them came together at
the First Presbyterian church Sun
day afternoon, at ) O'Clock, to hear
DR.. Guerrant, the evangelist, talk to
them.
The Doctor said it was very i'm
portant congregation, that these little
children were to be the future huSI-
ness and professional men, house
keepers, ETC., and urged upon the llttle
ones the Importance of remember ing
their creator in the days of their
youth.
The children's meeting was an in
terestiLg and instructive one, and DR.
Guerrant proved MS greatness IN the
fact that he could interest large
audience of little folks as well as one
composed of older people.
Perhaps the largest congregation
that the Presbyterian church ever
held came together last night. The
aisles were filled with extra seats and
quite d number could not get seats.
DIR Gutrrant, in lis preliminary re-
marks, said it was always best that
people should make d public confess
sion, and said in these meetings those
who wanted To confess their sins
would be re luested to do so publicly.
Some people might consider this
hardship, said he, but would man be
ashamed to acknowledge his mother
If this be true, how much more will
ingiy should man publicly acknOW-
ledge God. who gave him hlS mother.
The Doctor took his text from lst
Peter 3:l5: But sancJify the Lord
God in your hearts; and be ready al
ways TO give an answer to every man
that asketh you d reason OF the hope
that is in you with meekness and
fear"
Why am I Christian
Why did He make me or you?
God saws: Il have created man for
nv glory" Oh men Of North Carolin a
what dignity, destiny, glory We
were made by Him and for Him.
Then we have no ght to be anything
else but a Christian. We were made
to honor, serve ard love God. What
kind of man is he who lives on Gods
land, eats His food, drinks His water
and is protected by His laws, and does
not acknowledge or serve Him? He
is an anarchist. Those who refuse to
serve God and die in their sins, 1t
were better for them had they never
been born
am a Christian because "Love be-
gets Love-
love God because He first loved me.
l would love d"g that loves me.
/ want to be saved, and no one but
Christian can be saved.

CROPS IN EUROPE.

Average Yield Reported in Most Coun-
tries While They are Excellent in Russia
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE general
agricultural conditions in foreign coun-
tries are reviewed in the report of the
European agent of the agricultural de-
partment for July. In the middle and
south of England the wheat is reported
in several counties as less than half a
crop, with oats and barley practically
spoiled.
In France, the wheat crop is estimat-
ed at poor average, down to a falling
off from last year of forty million bush
els.
In Germany the wheat crop is now ex-
pected to be at an average and the rye
crop is expected to fall below the aver
age TO the extent of 5 to 80 per cent
In Austria all cereal growths promise
a good average. In Hungary the wheat
crop is expected to fall below that of last
year. from 100000 to 100000 bushels
In Spain the prospect now is for an
average crop.
In Italy an average crop is now as
sured.
In Russia both winter and spring
wheat is considerably above the average,
and the prospects of the rye harvest are
reported as better than at any previous
period in thirty years. The outlook for
a corn crop better than the average is
universal

The Ease with Which Port Arthur Was
Taken is Explained.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-THE ease
with which the Japanese captured Port
Arthur during the recent war with China
is explained to some extent by an article
in the Japan Gazette which arrived on
the last steamer. According. to the
Gazette the commander of the -Chiuese
forts was native of Japan who had ac-
quired favor in Chinese councils through
a long residence in the fowery kingdom,
and Intentionally caused the shots from
the guns to be misdirected SO they would
fall short of the Japanese war ships.
Hitting betrayed his adopted land for
the land of his birth. The disgraced
commander appeared before the victori-
Gus generals, acknowledged his treason
and committed suicide in their presence.

Indfans Are Making Serious Trouble in

OMAHA, July ia special to the Bee
from Cheyenne, Wyo., says: Governor
Richards received a telegram last night
signed by the justice of the peace and
constable of Maryville, in the jackson
Hole district, saying: mine Indians ar
rested; one killed; others escaped. Many
Indians reported here threatening lives
and property. Settlers are moving miles
away. Want protection Immediately.
Action on your part absolutely neces-
sary."
Governor Richards forwarded the mes
sage to the secretary of the interior and
asked him to take immediate action. The
governor says the entire trouble can be
stopped by the secretary of the interior
instructing the Indian agent at Fort Hall
Idaho, to send out his Indian police to
call in all the hunting parties of the In
dams who are in Wyoming. If it be-
comes necessary to send state troops to
the region, companies will be sent from
Evanston and Lander.

IT WILL NOT DOWN.
More Agitation Over the Killing of
Gust Mauer.
CORONER'S JURY AT HAYS CITY

CenSures DR.. Enstman-The Doctor
Says such Accidents Are UnavOId
able Mt Insane Asylums.
Superintendent Eastman of the Topeka
insane asylum is likely to have good
deal of trouble before the Hays City
friends and relatives of the late Gust
Mauer get through with making a dis
turbance about it.
The coroner's jury held an inquest
over the remains of Mauer at Hays City
yesterday afternoon and found that
Mauer was killed by having his neck
broken as published in the STATE JOUR-
NAL
The following is the verdict of the jury:
''The said jurors upon their oaths do
say that Gust Mauer came to his death
while putient of the insane asylum at
Topeka, Kansas, by having his neck
broken and we further find that DIR. East
man, superintendent of the asylum mis-
represented the cause of his death.
''Signed, ]. H. Downing, Hugh Irwin,
Jr., c. NJ Waun, III. NJ. Bannister, Nj.
Hoffamier and ]. L. Banner, jurors"
1t is known that the friends of Mauer
propose to make charges against DR..
Eastman before the state board of chart
ties and demand full investigation of
the causes Wnlcn leo TO THIS man 8 O0dLn.
DR.. Eastman was visitor at the state
house early this morning He was look
ing for Chairman Wilcoxson of the state
board of charities to make an explana-
ton to that office of the Mauer affair
To a STATE JOURNAL reporter DR.. East
man said: There is no accounting for
coroner's juries. The facts in this case
are just as I first stated them to this
mans widow. I wrote to her that he had
fall on the floor which fastened his
death. These things are likely TO
happen in any institution of this
kind. have known of attendants, ply
sicians and superintendent of asylums
being killed by patients and it is not
strange that one patient should occasion
ally do something to hasten the death of
another"
The officials about the state house do
not look at this case as DR. Eastman
seems to. They say that DR.. Eastman
ought to regard the affair more serious
ly and that he ought to have made full
explanation of Mauer's death at the time
it occurred.
