SSOURI.-Elmer.- Rev. Mauric Q
6. Linton ended his pastorate at this
place on Sunday, June 7th. A call has
been extended to him by the Logans-
port. Ind, church to become their pas.
tor, Bro. Guthrie having resigned his
pastorate at that place.
Bro. Linton is graduate of the Ry der
Divinity school. and is young man Of
energy and enthusiasm. We regret very
much to loose him here. but wish to
congratulate the Logansport church
upon its good fortune in securing the
services of so earnest a worker. He has
done good work for the church at this
place, and his Elmer friends part with
him very reluctantly. They all join in
wishing him abundant success in his
new field of labor.
Our little church is now without a
pastor. We will have supplies during
the summer and hope to settle pastor
at DIS early date as possible.

IOWA..
IOWA UNIvERsALIs rs, ATTENTION.

IOWA UNIVERSALISr rs, ATTENTION!
By concurrence of the several commit
tees the Convention Of Iowa Universal
lists for 1896 will be held at Cedar River
Park, near Waterloo, Ia. July 1926
inclusive.
In making this change from autumn
to summer meetings. it is proposed to
secure the advantages of summer out
ing and the reduced railway rates of the
famous Waterloo Chautauqua Associa-
ton. We also secure the attendance Ct
many able speakers and abundant
leisure for closer fellowship and earnest
counsel of our scattered workers. The
usual free entertainment by the local
parish is not practicable. Instead of
this tents and cottages at nominal cost
offer most charming facilities for camp
ing and light housekeeping. Electric
street cars furnish direct transportation
to and from the city.
The Assembly hall of the Chautauqua
Association is we'll lighted and conven-
lent, and has been engaged for all con-
vention purposes. A well-conducted
dining hall on the grounds will furnish
meals to the convention people at liberal
rates. There is unlimited space for
private tents, and convenient access to
needed supplies. Hotels and boarding
houses in the city can be easily reached
by all who do not wish to camp or lodge
at the Park. Your committees believe
that this Assembly of Iowa Universalists
for 1896 will combine all the pleasures
of a camp meeting. with much of the
leisure of summer outing, and all of
the inspiration OF great convention.
We urge all Iowa Universalists to come
as individuals or as families or in large
camping parties to enjoy these pente-
costal influences.
In purchasing tickets to Waterloo, del
egates and visitors are urged to secure
from the railway agent certificate stat
ing that full fare has been paid. This
certificate when signed by the Conven-
ton Secretary and his Assistant will en-
title purchaser to returning to starting
point at onethird regular rates, provided
that 100 such certificates appear.

KANSAS, - Junction City. - Last
week Miss Eta Sawtelle. a faithful
worker in the Y. P. G. u. repeated can
tata for the benefito the young peoples
society. 1t was first given as part of
the closing exercises of Miss Sawtelle's
grade in the public school. The clouds
upon that evening were something ap-
palling and as we have grown nervous in
the face of such threats, the audience
was not large. The Y. P. G. U. is strain
ing every nerve to meet heavy obliga-
ton due the State Union. President
Pierce will not let us rest until this duty
is accomplished.
Sunday. June 6, was flower Sunday
with us. Also the celebration of the
Lords Supper. The church was beau
tifully decorated by hard working com
mite of young ladies. The Sunday
school scholars had the larger part of
the service, rendering sweet music and
appropriate verse. Two solos by differ
emit members of the infant class won all
hearts. Short addresses by pastor and
dedication of three children concluded
the service. Following this service was
the regular quarterly communion.
We are planning to send good delega-
ton overland to Seneca to the State Y.
P. G. U. Convention. We also hope to
have one or two representatives at "Jer-
sey City, &c."
For the past month the audiences
have fallen off, whether the cause is
found in the hot weather or not we are
unable to say.
There are few days, even the fairest,
during which clouds do not pass over
the sun, obscuring its light for time.
We have our clouds,-lack of interest
lack of appreciation of duty, sickness,
trouble, death. But our sun also shines
and in many ways is our church life
gloriied. GLIB.

few brief but appropriate remarks, and
Mr.. Hutchinson. after the school sang
"Home Sweet Home" delivered an inter-
estipg and touching address. He re-
ferred in tender words to the late James

scholars, and he received very warm
and affectionate welcome.
Several children we're baptized pre-

B Ehlers' store Destroyed by
Fire.


Early this morning an alarm was
turned in, notifying the Fire De-
partment that the drygoods store of
II. f. Eblers ~ Co. on Fort street
was on fire.
The fire was first noticed by
lady driving to the early mass at the
cathedral. She reported immedi-
ately to patrolman who sent in
the alarm.
Two engines responded to the
call and were stationed, one at the
corner of King and Fort streets and
the other at the corner of Hotel and
Fort. The fire had made rapid pro-
gress, and in spite OF the efforts OF
the department the large stock Of
goods of the firm was destroyed by
the fire and water.
The cause of the FIRE has not been
learned yet. An Investigation is
being held by a jury, composed Of
Messrs. w. F. Allen, j. Gilman,
Henry Davis, l.. @. Ables and E. F..
Bishop. The jury is presided over
by the Marshal. Mr.. 9. Bosse repre-
sents the insurance agents.
The stock consumed by the fire is
insured for $4,000 10 the North
German and the Transatlantic Fire
Insurance Companies of Hamburg,
Ell, Hackfeld & Co. are the agents
here. The building, which is owned
by j. Campbell, is insured for $4,000.
The manager OF The store, Mr.. Du
Roi is absent on a business trip to
San Francisco. He is expected to
leave for home to-day. Mr.. B. F.
Ehlers, the owner of the business, is
in Germany. The total loss is esti-
mated at $4,000.
A large stock of new goods is OK.
pected shortly by the agents of BE-
Ehlers & Co., and a new store
and offices will probably be secured
at once.
1t is generally believed that the
fire was caused through the electric
wires. At meeting of the under.
writer's sometime ago it was demon
strated by an expert the danger Of
having electric wires in the immedi
ate proximity Of wood. Rats may
eat the insulating material and lay
bare the wire on places where the
insulation has been destroyed will
cause the sparks to fly and risk Of
setting ON fire the wood.
The theory referred to is made
plausible through the fact that the
fire evidently was started near the
ceiling and gradually spread to
wards the floor. One counter wa
totally burned while the other wa
intact.
Mr.. Campbell will probably cree
a two-stories building on the SAM
plan as his adjoining handsome
block.
