FRIDAY.

The annual meeting of the Presby-
terrain synod of Minnesota opened In
this city last evening with the largest
attendance of any synod of the church
ever held in the state. The atten-
dance is about $50, which equals or
excells the highest expectations. The
afternoon and evening trains yester-
day brought in numerous delegates,
and the Presbyterian special over the
Minneapolis & St. Louis road brought
in 120 from the twin cities. This
train arrived at $50 p. m. Commit
tees were on hand when the different
trains pulled in to welcome thestran-
gers and get them assisted to their
stopping places,
The ladies of the Presbyterian
church served a supper in the church
parlors last evening to the entire
number present, then about It's. This
was very pleasant affair and gave
all an opportunity of getting ac-
ouainted,

Visit to the Normal.

The synod visited the Normal
school at II o'clock. In the chape
DR.. Egbert, of St. Paul. addressed the
school. He suggested to the schools
to get hold of the truth that the OBJ
ject of schools should be to realize
that God has equipped men for
eternal prayers that only could in
spire students to make the most of
themselves for this work which was
but the beginning of what they would
eternally be.
DR.. Cleveland, of Duluth, said that
teachers were not in the work for the
money that was in it; nor were the
ladies there that they might get good
husbands, though it was notorious
that lady teachers always got the
pick of husbands.
The teacher had a great moral pur-
pose. That purpose was to get fitted
at school to 90 out and help the young
to build character.
DR.. Pollock, of Litchtield. who act
ed as chairman of the committee, in
PRODUCED Rev. II. Thomas. of Mime
apolis. Mr.. Thomas knew no more
important work for the country and
nation than the right training OF
teachers. The great purpose OF
teachers and school houses was tC
raise men and women to stand up fol
the right and for God.
Rev. J. Pringle, of ST. Paul, insist
ed on the necessity of students OBJ
serving the things that came daily
under their eyes. The lobster was ar
illustration. The lobster was AWAY:
looking into things, and when the
lobster gets hold of thing it nevel
lets go. These two things were {
necessity for teachers.
The committee expressed itself a.
highly satisfied with the general ap
pearance of the school, the order ant
the tact of the principal.

in their churches to. double .the con-
tributions they had made last year?
DR.. Nichols, of ST. Louis, an ex-
moderator of the assembly spoke after
DR.. Withrow. DR.. Nichols said that
DR.. Withrow had remarked that the
board was open to criticism. He
maintained that the meanest thing
the church csuld do was to criticise
its board and lay on the lash when a
board was in difficulty. The board
needed now more than at any other
time to have its friends stand by it
and let it out of the difficulty in
which it was now involved.
DR.. Egbert. of ST. Paul, pleaded for
the synod to take up the matter at
that session and offered S25 to begin
the scheme. Rev. ]. L. Ferguson,
Shakopee, followed with $25 and these
were followed with contributions of
$40 and s. and smaller sums until the
amount was made up to $500 and more
will be contributed before the synod
closes. DR.. Withrow generously Of
fered to add S25.

HE WAS DESPONDENT.
Paul j. Hall browns Himself In the
LeSueur River.
The Deed Done Yesterday, Near the
Mineral Springs.

Paul j. Hall, an unmarried man
who has been living on his forty
acre farm in section 81, LeRay, COM
mitted suicide Thursday afternoon
by drowning himself in the LeSueur
river. His body was found at o'clock
Friday in three or four feet of
water, eight rods below the Mankato
mineral springs, about eight miles
east Of this city, by Albert Russell
and some companions. Hall had
gone into the water with his clothing
on, and all the circumstances of the
case point to suicide. A partially
filled whisky bottle was found in one
pocket.
Halls aunt, Mrs. Annie Paulson,
had been keeping house for him For
few days past she and others had
noticed that he was not in his right
mind, acting as though demented. 1t
is believed that this condition was
brought on by recent ill health and
breeding over this. He appeared to
be strong enough.
Hall went to st. Clair yesterday
and while there purchased some
corrosive sublimate, but would not
state for what purpose. This could
not be found today. He never gave
any hint that he intended to commit
suicide, The body was taken to his
home end will be taken to GAINESVILLE
tomorrow for burial. Coroner Pad
dock was notified, and accompanied
by Gates Phillips, made an investiga-
tion of the facts In the case, and ar
rived at the conclusion that an inves-
tigatiOn was not necessary.
The deceased leaves several broth
ers and sisters-John and Hans Halls

Hanseth and Mrs Ellen Reese, of Lee
Ray, Mrs. Annie Jacobson and Mrs.
Elizabeth Bogner, of Watertown, S.
D., and Mrs. Mary Hanson, of Nc

much to do. Living on the fat lands
OF the Euphrates valley, that home IN
Havan offered all the opportunities
he could desire. How then should he
willingly welcome a call, which came
to him to strike tents and 60
whittier, he was not told. The voice
of God called to him to go forth Win
out chart. compass or company and
wait upon the pOintings of provl-
deuce. He went and glory went with
him. But at last there was fearful
reversal of this victorious faith, not
because something too hard to do was
asked of him. There was nothing
demanded of him but to believe that
God could and would give him a child
when he was 100 years old and his
wife, Sarah, was ninety. AT hearing
this offer made him by Gods angel,
he fell on his face and laughed, just
as they do now who laugh at the posi-
bility of the Almighty re-
versing or overcoming the nat
ural operations of physical
laws. Men change the natural
course of things easily. They throw
ball in the air and by catching 1t
stop the operation of natural law
that was pulling it TO the earth. We
put salt on meat and ice around fruits
to preserve them toothsome FOL
months. In a thousand ways we dc
to natural laws what unbelieving peo'
pie laugh at God being able to do.
Thus did Abraham and thus dc
some still.
The breakdom of his faith was fol
lowed by an event which revised it,
and made it more victorious than
ever it had been. A summons came
for him to offer that only ano
precious child of promise in bloody
sacrifice. 1t must have wrung his
heart of it's best blood, but he obeyec
to the point of driving the steel int
the precious body. There God arrest
ed the tragedy and announced the
reason to be that now Abraham hac
proved his implicit faith and could bt
trusted.
What our day most needs is faith il
the reality of the unseen God. Polic'
powers never were enough to NOR
than intimidate tranSgreSSOrS. LeglS
lation is important to purify society
but let men believe in God Jehovah
as we'll as in Jesus the tender Savio
and then will we start into having
generation of those whose mora
backbone will be stiff enough to stan'
up against any stress Of temptation.

Election of Moderator.

Immediately after the sermon, a
business meeting of the synod was
held, and the election Of new
moderator was taken up.
Rev. T. H. Clelland, Of Duluth,
placed DR.. John Paul Egbert, of ST.
Paul, in nomination, with some
pleasant references to the retiring
moderator. This was seconded by
several delegates.
Rev. Geo. P. Magill, of Owatonna,
presented the name of Rev. DR.. Allen
Bell, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, of Winona, and this was
seconded by Rev. Geo. G. Pollock, of
Litchfield, formerly of Mankato. DR..
Magill spoke of the past custom OF
passing around the moderatorship in
support Of DR.. Bell.
DR.. Egbertoarose and stated that he
did not desire to break this custom
and said that the moderatorship was
difficult and trying position. He
asked to be allowed to withdraw his
name in order that DR.. Bell might be
elected by reclamation. There were
shouts of mo" mo"
Rev. A.W. Wright, of Wilmar, NOV
ed that Dr.. Egbert be given permission
to withdraw his name. The modera
tor put the motion and the vote seem
ed to be about equally divided. The
motion was declared carried, and DR.
Bell was then elected moderator by &
rising vote, on motion of Rev
Clelland.
DR.. Bell was invited to the plat
form, where the retiriug moderator
congratulated him upon his election
Dr.. Campbell said that he hac
not, as DR.. Egbert had remarked
found the position difficult and try
ing one, because of the patience anc
faithfulness of the delegates last
year. He was sure that DR.. Bel
would find the same to be true thi
year.
DR.. Bell accepted the gayel and sait
that he scarcely knew whether or no
to be elated and thank the synod o.
to have feeling of regret. Their
are obligations on anyone elected
moderator. He said he was encourag
ed and filled with trembling becaus
it was the first time that he had eve
presided over synod. He was pleas
ed to be here. The past years hat
been pleasant ,ones, and he felt tina
he could take his brothers by tn
hand warmly and feel that they wer
all one in Christ. In this northern
climate people are apt to have
