FORT DODGE, Ia, Feb. 9.-The pay
ment Of the river lands awarded by con-
gress, as made public yesterday, will
mean good deal to Webster county.
Many people have been waiting long
time for this list. Although consider
able money goes to Humboldt, Hamil-
ton, Boone and Polk counties, the bulk
of it comes to this county. The pay
ment Of these claims this spring will
mean about s2o0,o00 put III circulation
in these counties, and the most of it in
Webster. That is only an infinitesimal
part of what the river land controversy
has cost this county.

TRIPLE TRAGEDY AT NEWTON.
Insane Barber In Iowa Kills Two People
and Himself.


NEWTON, Ia, Feb. ia double muir
der and the suicide of the murderer &C.
CURED at the home of r. r. Smith,
who, with his wife, are the victims of
the murderous passion of their son-in-
law, Charles Phares.
The deed was committed in a fit of
insanity, supposed to have been brought
on by Phares' dependency, due to en-.
forced idleness for long time. He was
barber, and short time ago removed
to this city with his family, wife and
child of 8 years. They lived at the
home of Mrs. Phares' parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Smith.
Phares came home from down town
and entered the room where his father
in-law and mother.in-law were. He
drew a revolver and shot Smith in the
left side of the face, the bullet passing
out at the right ear, going through his
head. Then he turned the weapon on
Mrs. Smith and shot her i'll the mouth,
the bullet lodging in her brain. She
died instantly.
He rushed outside and shot himself
in the left temple. T11e bullet entered
the brain. The sound of the reports
brought neighbors to the scene. They
found the three bodies. Smith was not
dead, and still fingers, but he will die,

BOTH SIDES GETTING BITTER.
Gum Boatman Case at Fremont Contin ues
| to Attract Attention

To Attract Attention.
FREMONT, Ia, Feb. "a curious
state of affairs exists over the Gum
Boatman trial here. The place is all
torn up with dissension, and families
who have heretofore been friends are
now bitter enemies. The friends of
Merrillat and D. Sigafoos have lined up
ON one side and those of Gum and DR..
Boatman ON the other. The row has
reached both churches, and the pastors
who testified as to the character of the
men are being bitterly assailed on the
one hand, and enthusiastically upheld
on the other. So bitter is this feeling
that the farmers, it is said, will not go
Fremont any more to trade, but go to
Oskaloosa or Ottumwa because of their
fear that they may also become involved
i'll the difficulty. The case against DR..
Sigafoos and Merrillat will come up for
trial February II. Another stormy trial
is expected, and more strife will be en-
gendered.

CONTEST THEIR SISTERS WILL.
Mrs. .OsbOrn's Millions Again Brought
IntO Prominence


NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Leila o. Hen
riques and Mary A. Mason have
brought suit in the supreme court to
set aside the will Of their sister, Miriam
A. Osborn, the defendants in action
being John F. Sterling and the Cen
trail Trust company, trustees under the
will. The suit is also for a partition
of the property. Mrs. Osborn died in
March, 1891, leaving an estate of over
$5,OOO,OO0 By the will these sisters
get the income each from $4,000 Her
son, Howell Osborn, whose marriage
to Fay Templeton brought him into
prominence, was left the income from
trust fund of 1000, the principal
on his death to go to the issue of
a marriage between him and a wife
who had not appeared professionally
on the dramatic stage. The contest is
made on the ground that the will was
not the free will of the testatrix, and
1t is alleged was made through the
influence of Mr. Sterling 1t is also
claimed that the trusts are invalid,
for the reason that she bequeathed
more than half of her estate to relig-
ious institutions, while she had an
heir, Howell. surviving.
The matter came up in the supreme
court before Justice Andrews today
on a motion made by the defendant,
Sterling, to compel the plaintiffs to
make their complaint more definite and
certain, there being seven different
causes of action named. Decision was

The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1896-02-29
A MISSIONARY JOURNEY.-III
BY REV. 1. WALLACE GATE.

KYoTo was not on the program
but it is a famous city scarcely
twenty five miles from Osaka, being
formerly the capital, and is therefore
a city worth seeing. 1t is a city of
375,000 inhabitants and situated in
deep bend of the mountains. 1t has
several famous temples whose
grounds in some cases form extensive
natural parks of great beauty and
wildness. From one of these temples
can be obtained magnificent view
of the entire city. Kyoto may be
peculiar in many regards, but one
popularity in particular attracted
my attention, and that was a device
for protection againt the heat of the
sun in the streets. Iobserved in some
places wires extending from roof to
roof across the street to which were
attached strips of canvas in such
way as to be extended or withdrawn
as desired. In other parts the same
end was attained by pieces of mat
ting laid upon bamboo poles.
But should not have stopped at
Kyoto at this particular time merely
to see the city and its temples. My
chief desire was to visit the Doshisha,
the great school established by the
American Board, and to which was
related very important part of the
duties of the commission recently
sent to Japan. The college is situa-
ted on the outskirts of the city on
one side of magnificent park form
erly belonging to the palace grounds.
The space occupied by the college
was only a few years ago mulberry
field. 1t is today the largest Chris
tan school in Japan and has exerted
a powerful influence in behalf of
Christianity. During my stay of one
day l was rescued from the dis
comforts of hotel by the hospitality
of Rev. G. E. Albrecht, a professor in
the college, and by his kindness 1
was enabled to meet several of the
foreign community. In one day one
could see scarcely more than the out
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1896-02-29

most rigid economy is practiced
consistent with tolerable degree of
comfort. This means second class
fare on the railway and Japanese ho-
tells instead of foreign ones, except
when stress of circumstances, such
as the severity of the weather, makes
the latter very desirable. With such
economy the present journey, that is,
seven hundred and twelve miles Of
railway and hotel expenses for eight
cen days, cost the mission a little
less than forty yen, or, at present
rates of exchange, about twenty dol
lars.
In writing heretofore | have neg
lected to mention fact which will
be of especial interest to some of the
supporters of our work. This is that
the wife of Rev. I'll. Yoshimura, our
worker at Osaka, fell victim to the
cholera which ragged here last sum-
mer.
TOKYO, Jan. 90, 1896
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1896-02-29

the perfect pattern yet. The best
Christians living will therefore have to
finish in another world. There is no
completeness here. Fulfllment there.
Growth, improvement and progress i'm
ply change, and this is the change we
believe will take place hereafter-in all
lives. If one single soul fails to be
saved, Jesus Christ will fail to accom-
plish his whole mission. We believe
more in Christ than partialist friends,
not less.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1896-02-29
These things, together with good

These things, together with good
degree of common sense and enter
prise, will, in due time, bring man
sufficient wealth to make him beau
tiful home with all the comforts and
blessings which heart can wish; with
a little to spare for old age, and to
give to his children when he is gone,
and, may be, some besides for be-
nevolent purposes.
This is my idea of the best way to
secure worldly gain. And it is the
way most men of wealth have gained
their riches. 1t is an honest way to
live. 1t is busy way to live. 1t
employs the talents God has given
us. 1t makes the world active. 1t
encourages enterprise. 1t employs
laboring men. 1t builds up benevo-
lent institutions. 1t establishes
schools. 1t honors man and glorifes
God.
But | cannot close this discourse
without speaking briefly of another
kind of riches besides those that are
material-the riches which gener-
ously-cultivated soul brings. The
riches of earth are transitory. The
riches of the soul are enduring. AS
Paul says: "The things that are seen
are temporal; but things not seen
are eternal" With the soul expand
ed, rounded out, perfected in all d.
rections, man is rich for time and
rich for eternity. A man with only
an abundance of this worlds goods
is rich only for time, and those riches
he but poorly enjoys. 1t is a posi-
BILE thing for man to have in posses
sion both kinds of riches. Amos and
Abbott Lawrence belonged to this
class. They were Boston merchants
and counted their wealth by the
millions. And yet they were men of
culture, refinement, Christian in
spirit, generous in the bestowing of
their gifts, and models of men every
way. One of them was the American
Minister to England for several years.
Lawrence University, at Appleton,
Wis, was FAMED after one of them
because of his generous gift to that
institution. They gavegenerously of
their funds while they lived, and yet
continued to increase their riches.
Peter Cooper was another one of
this class. There have been many of
them. Let there be more of them
still. The world has room for many
such. They help develop the world,
to increase human happiness, to con-
vert the wilderness into a blooming
garden.
But if man can secure but one of
these riches, let that be the riches of
the soul. Professor Agassiz was once
asked why he did not turn his atten
ton to money making. His reply
was that he had "had no time for
that" He felt that life was exceed
ingly short and was DESTROYS to ex-
plore Gods hidden mysteries and
bring to light all the knowledge he
could. His salary as professor in
Harvard University was all he needed
to aid him in his work. Secure your
worldly gains, if you can do SO with
honor. And use them to make home
happy and the world at large better
and more sunny. But give some of
life's precious moments to the enrich
ing of the mind with knowledge and
the cultivating of the affectional and
spiritual nature. Then will you be
most truly rich.

place where rose the standard Of Me-
braska. In twinkling others followed
the example. Two thirds Of the state
staffs were torn from their sockets and
carried as trophies to Nebraska, where
they danced in midair. A dozen dele
gates rushed upon the stage and shoul-
dered the half-dazed orator and bore
him in triumph down the aisle. Louder
and louder shrieked the thousands, un-
til the volume of sound broke like gi-
gantic wave and fell, only to rise and
break again. For almost ten minutes
this maddened tumult continued, while
the delegates with the state standards
paraded the enclosure. Old political
generals were stupefied. If the ballot
for the nomination had been taken it
would have been a stampede. When 1t

on the minority substitute for the plat
form offered by Senator Hill, which was
defeated, 626 to 303. Then on the resolu-
tion to endorse the administration,
