FLOOD DANGER is OVER.
But During Its Boom the Mississippi Did
Damage of $I4 100000.

New Orleans, May 21.-The rapid fall
of the Mississippi at all points from
Memphis to the gulf gives notice that
the flood of 1897 is over 1t is now con-
ceded by all the engineers, state as we'll
as national, that there is no longer need
for any fear from high water. Not
even from the rise which comes down
the Mississippi in June. The Mississip-
pi will have fallen so by June that 1t
can take care of any rise that may
come down from the Ohio or upper Mis-
sissippi. Ii has been decided also to
abandon all relief work, except in few
localities.
The colored relief committee at Vicks-
burg has dsbanded because its services
are no longer needed. The refugee
camps at Natchez and Vicksburg were
broken up and the refugees sent home.
The total area, including wild lands.
overflowed was: Arkansas, 1920 square
miles: Mississippi $500 square miles;
Louisiana, 975 square miles. Much of
the land was swamp. An estimate of
the actual damage done in the loss of
stock and crops, houses destroyed and

MONROE sALIsURY's ASSETS.
Statement Filed with the County Clerk of
Aledo Cal.


San Francisco, May 21.-The petition
in insolvency of Monroe Salisbury, in
voluntarily insolvent, was filed at the
office OF the county clerk of Aledo and
the showing made is anything but en-
couraging to numerous creditors.
Salisbury places his liabilities at $155,-
5S1 and says his assets amount to but
S4OO in personal property all exempt
from taxation. There is some encour-
agement in the fact that he owns prop
erty in Chicago estimated to be worth
$25O,0OO. but mortgaged to the extent OF
$3.50 000 However, that. too, is offset
again by the fact that Salisbury is de-
fendant in suits commenced against
him by the United States government
In the northern district of California for
5000. .SS4. with interest at 6 per cent,
December, 1892.

Interest I'm Election.

At the close Of DR.. Withrow's sermon
a recess was taken. At 2:30 the assem-
bly, convened again for the election OF
moderator. The election aroused the
greatest interest of the day. There
seems to be no doubt now that DIR. Hen
ry Collins Minton of the San Francisco
Theological seminary will be elected.
His only formidable rival is Dir. Sheldon
Jackson, the prominent Alaskan Home
missionary. The vote will be based
purely on personal preference, for both
of the principal candidates are western
men and the east does not seem anxious
to obtain the moderatorship this year,
though DR.. Withrow, the retiring mod
orator, is also a western man. Both DIR.
Minton and DR.. Jackson are on the
ground 1t is believed that before the
vote is taken number of other promi-
nent churchmen will be nominated as a

Idea of Charity.

ABOVE all InlnSS nave 1eTNenl cHdi-
ity among yourselves.
Idea of Charity.
TT is to be said thasjlot a few con-
fine the idea of charity to aims giving.
The word conveys this suggestion gen.
orally in the English-speakng world.
1t thus represents emotions of the
heart which keep the hands open. And
so we have our state charities and our
church charities; our organized and our
private charities, the predominant idea
of which is that they provide food foT
the hungry, shelter for the homeless,
ministry for the afflicted and methods
for ameliorating whatever miseries be-
fall the unfortunate. And of the flow
ers that grow by the waysides of life
none surpass in beauty of form and per
fume of grace such institutions of Sa-
maritan mercy
But there is more than alms-deeds
meant by the Holy Spirit when he bids
us Above all things have fervent char
ity among yourselves The substantive
term in the original, translated char
ity in the text, is one of two that stands
for love in our language. Many years
have elapsed between my ordination by
presbytery and that highest day in the
calendar when the church called me TO
this moderator's chair.
Not a Ripple of Disturbance.
"In all those years of continuous pas
toral service there had never been even
a ripple of disturbance in any church
served. Never a clash had occurred in
congregational meeting and never a
negative vote had been recorded in any
official board of trustees deacons or
elders.
Coming to this chair a year ago in
Saratoga, the anxious question arose:
Can such fraternal concord be antici-
pated in the whole body as has pre-
vailed in those separate churches? De-
pending not upon any grace or gift in
ourselves, but wholly upon the Holy
One, who is the author of peace we
believed 1t might. And when we now
review the year, who can but rejoice
that 1t has been realized? The Chris
tian world is aware of it: and If it shall
continue the world outside will soon be-
gin to feel the benign effects. For il
was in our Lords utterances that he
said, by united church the world will
be led to believe that thou has sent
me-"
