The workers conference ION instruc-
tions,' at the Grand Avenue Methodist
Episcopal church. was conducted by the
Rev. w =. Mckee of Minneapolis.
Calvary church was crowded to the
doors with attendants on the social Sec
ton meeting. The sense of the parlia-
ment appeared to be that without soci-
ables church work would lafi, and that
the right time to hold them was all the
time.
Bishop DiaZ of Cuba held forth at
Plymouth churce. He was presented as
1.-The man of sorrow" owing to his per.
secutions in Cuba, and entranced the
audience with hif odd p~hraseology and
mixture of Spanish and English. The
meeting was favored with a song
Nearer My God to Thee" sung in the
Japanese language by a young japanese
girl. There was also an address by a
negro clergyman from the South, who
had been born a slave and brought into
the church and educated through the
missionary work.
The committee on nominations have
decided to present the name of John H.
Chapman, the present chairman of the
international body, for reelection, and
also the name of +. L. Wilkins, gen,
eral secretary. The other nominations
will be made later. Denver was chosen
as the next place of meeting. \

HIS FAITH WAS STRONG.
But the Water Was Deep-Religious En-.
thusest's Tragic Death.

Toledo, o., Sept. 29-Charles Gosler, a
religious fanatic of Evansport, west of
this city, met death near Defiance, O., in
a tragic manner while attempting to walk
upon the water in order to demonstrate
that his faith was equal to that of the
Saviour.
Gosler was young man Of The best of
habits and good character, and was an
ardent supporter of the doctrine of the
Seventh Day Adventists. He recently be-
came somewhat unbalanced in mind. He
was married last week to young wo-
man of Evansport, and since that time
had spent all his leisure moments read
ing the Bible.
He was at work for a neighbor when,
with one companion, he started for din
ner. When they reached the dam at the
Tiffan river he said ne would cross on the
water, as his faith was sufficient. He
spent some moments in praying and sing
ing hymns and then boldly started on the
water
Some boys who saw him say he appear
ed to walk all right for several steps,
when suddenly he began to founder
about, finally sinking from sight, singing
as he went down. Life was extinct when
the body was recovered.
Great crowds have been attracted by
the tragedy, and some feeling is noticea-
BILE against the advocates of that faith
in the neighbOrhOod.

"THOS. e. WATSON"
Mr.. Matthews held this telegram until
the populist committee returned from
the session with the democratic campaign
committee. At this session nothing def
mite had been determined. The best that
the populist committee would offer was
fusion with five populists and ten demo-
cratic electors, declaring that 1t had no
authority to withdraw the populist state
ticket or any populist nominees for con-
gress. The telegram from Watson, when
shown to the committee, settled all pos
sbility of any further efforts in the d.
rection of fusion.

The Storm Blows Over.

Amite City, La. Sept 29.-Trouble has
been averted, and for this happy state
of affairs every one is thankful About
200 of the citizens of the country adjacent
to Independence rode into town about
11:30 this morning and appointed a COM
mittee to- confer with a like committee
from the citizens in the court house and
after a protracted conference an agree
ment was reached which was accepted by
both sides. The joint committee, after
being in session for two hours, gave out
the following statement:
''The committee representing the citi-
zens of the parish of Tangipahoa, met
committee representing citizens of Am
lite City, and after due consultation the
citizens committee, being satisfied with
statements of the law officers, have con-
cluded to return to their homes and vo-
cations, the law officers having promised
to bring John Johnston to as speedy trial
as possible at this place under the law
and rule of the court and to have the
posses and militia dismissed to their
homes today"
AT this time the posse has been dis
banded, the troops will return home this
evening and the citizens from below have
left for home and all is quiet once more.
The citizens who claim they came here
solely for the purpose of holding an in
dignation meeting, were not armed; at
least no arms were visible and theiy said
nothing was further from their minds
than intending any harm to the officers.
