IN THEOLOGICAL PROGRESS
As Shown by the Cruzan Case This
Coast IS Going Ahead of the East
in Liberal Doctrines.

BOSTON, Oct. 90. Under the title "a
Remarkable Case of Heresy" the Tran
script says to. night in leading ed itorial: !:
"a very singular and somewhat unique
case of heresy has been on trial in Culifor-
MIA. council of Trinitarian Congrega-
tionalists was called to consider the pro-
priety of installing Rev. J. A. Cruzan as
pastor OF a church in North Berkeley.
The Occident utters a wall of CRITICS M
against all this, but the council unani-
mously declared the examination satis-
factory. The times certainly indicate
marked changes in the religious world,
but a council OF ministers in this resion
could hardly be found in connection with
Trinitarian churches that would vote to
ordain or install man who entertained
such peculiar views pertaining TO what
are called fundamental doctrines As the
result of the council, if correctly reported.
and We see no reason 10 doubt it, the
Pacific Coast is outstripping the most
liberal churches at the North in theologi-
cal prorress."

SEVEN DEATHS.
There Is No Abatement of the PLAQUE
of Yellow Fever at New
Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS. Oct. % - To-day's
fever record was much worse than antici.
pated. There were approximately forty
cases at o'clock. and at that time the
days record included seven deaths. There
is no abate ment of the fever, and at the
same time there is not an apparent dispo-
sition on the part OF the plague to grow
any worse.
Cool mornings and nights with hot davs
keep at an average mark both deaths
and the mum ber of cases. Two of the
deaths of the day occurred before O'Clock
this morning. The highest number of
fatalities heretofore in a single day has
been nine and it looked this evening as if
to-day's would run pretty close race
with the worst day of the past.
This was the record OF deaths to-day ::

FAIL TO GET DAMAGES,
Men Who We're Stranded at ST.
Michael Lose a LIBEL
Suit.

SEATTLE, Oct. 23.-Judee Hanford
sustained the exceptions TO the libel
brought against the steamer Eugene by
Baston JacobI ard others for damages on
account of the failure of the Portland
Alaska Trading and Transportation Com
pany to land .he passengers of the steamer
at Dawson City.
Each Of the Iibelants alleged that the
mpany, being at the time the owner of
the steamer Eugene, entered into a con-
tract to carry him from Seattle to st.
Michael on the steamship Bristol and
thence on the Eugene to Dawson, Tor
which he paid $780, A breach of contract
was alleged In that the steamer Eugene
failed to go to ST. Micha TO receive the
libelants as agreed. For loss of time and
other damages each of the libelants
claimed $1,000.
In the decision the court saws that
authorities conflict on the point as to
whether suits iE rem can be maintai ned
for breach OF an exeCutory contract to
carry passengers on board OF particular
vessel where the vessel has not entered
upon performance. After quoting several
authorities bearing on this question an
excerpt from decision of the Supreme
Court by Justice Davis is given, which is
to thls effect:
the owner of the cargo has a lien on q
vessel for any injury he may sustain by
the fault of the vessel or the master, but
the law creates no lien on the vessel as
security for the performance of q contract
% transport cargo until some lawful
contract of affreigh tment is made and
the cargo to which it relates has been de-
livered to the custody of the master or
some one authorized to receive it,"
Judge Hanford, in concuding, says tn at
the authorities were conclusive on the
point that the right to proceed in rem for
breach of contract did not exist unless
the cargo or portion OF it had been de-
livered 10 the master of the vessel or his
authorized agent. The weight of authori-
ties Is found to bear against the posi-
ton of the libelants. According to the
authorities II is not the making of a con-
tract or the payment of a consideration
therefor which renders the vessel liable !;
the lien upon which the right to proceed
in rem does not attach until the goods or
passengers are delivered, placed within
the care or under the control of the ships
master.
The exceptions to the libel were sus-
tanned, which means that the owners of
the ship will not have % pay any damages.

Brave Rescue of General Payne by Som
Negro Volunteers.

Brave Rescue of General Payne by Some
Negro Volunteers.
1.-The most daredevil piece of hero
ism l ever saw was by some negroes be-
fore Fort Pillow, when l was a prison.
er inside the fort and General Payne
was lying in front of it with his leg
shot off, was the way Charles Cotton
Of Company y of the One Hundred and
Sixty-first New York infantry began a
story Of valiant rescue that he told tc
some negro veterans.
General Payne's leg had been shot
off in the first CHARGE" he continued,
land he was lying hidden behind some
rocks in front of the fort, when his
troops were forming plans to rescue
him. The scathing fire from the fort
swept that spot, and no officer dared to
command any of his men to go to GER
tain death in what looked like u vain
attempt to rescue their chief.
while the men We're celebrating q
negro stepped up and said, We might
as we'll UNI II chances now as any 9TH
er time, and l for one will make the
attempt He was a handsome fellow,
and the spirit he displayed was at once
equaled by that of III other negroes,
who stepped out and volunteered their
services. 4. strctcher was brought, and
four OF them started. but had gone only
q few yards when every one was shot
dead. A ome after four others of
the volunteers rushed out, and, picking
up the stretcher, carried it q few yards
farther. when they, too, were killed.
The four who were left went ahead as
if nothing had happened, and two of
them came back alive with the general,
while the other two were left dead at
the pile of rocks where General Payne
had been lying. General Payne is still
living, and, | am told, the two noble
fellows who rescued him have wanted
for nothing ever since. buffalo Ex-

LOWER HoRsEHEAp NOTES.

Mrs. Jim Bean, jr., is dangerously sick.
We are all glad to see the return of
sunshine and fine weather.
There will be a Christmas tree at the
Phillips school house Christmas night.
On account of bad weather there has
been no literary at the Phillips school
house for two weeks.
Ed. Phillips and his father have taken
their sheep to the Hills to winter. They
will live on Eds ranch in Dudley's
canyon at the foot of Battle mountain.
The rest of the family will remain here
where they will be handy to school.
Last Sunday morning Cannon Fisher
found n of his best young mares in Il
hole OF her back and was being eaten
up alive by five coyotes. The mare was
in such a shape that she could not
fight them off. AS the mare was a pet
that Cannon had raised by hand he
naturally felt bad over it.
Ii we should have a hard winter with
our short range many cattle will perish
before spring. The farmers have al
ready fed more feed than than they
usually feed all winter. The late con-
tinued storms we're u surprise to every
one. The oldest settlers never saw
anything like it so early in the season.
just before Thanksgiving VIM. Gibbs
came up from Hay Springs, Nebraska,
after some cattle that he had contrac-
ted to winter, but after waiting for
more than a week for the storm to pass
by he became disguised, left his horse
and saddle, and took the train for Hay
Springs to wait for a change of weather.
The change came the day after he left,
and now we are having fine weather.

The Dissolving Co., or show, must be
dissolved or busted, for they did not
show up in either Maitland or Cascade.
Mrs. Allen returned from Edgemont
after a stay of about four weeks. She
is, by frequently changing from place,
somewhat improving, but is still lame
enough to be troubled.
Herman Mailer has had quite a tus-
sci with scraping at his ditch. He
didn't want to give in but the beauti-
full in abundance combined with jack
frost compelled him to lay by, but now
he is hauling lumber.
Our immediate vicinity becomes we'll
stocked with cattle. of which Harry
Ferguson takes care of $50 head. Harry
Baily got about leo in the canyons,
and now Hugh McNale has gone above

Americas Literary Necessity.

America needs to start new intellec.
tual cycle, and it is sup%erfiuous to say
that the way to start is not to rest in
the boasted excellence Of some light
form Of literature. for example, the
American short story. 1t will take larger
effort than this, and effort along lines
ill beset, to bring out the American
rival of Homer and Dante and Virgil
aud Goethe and Shakespeare. There is
a deal of meaning i'll the remark attrib.
uted to Horace Greeley that what the
United States needed was a sound
thrashing, but that unfortunately nc
other nation OH earth was big enough te
give it to them. The old world is well
worn. 1t is gradually approaching, from
sheer weariness, n social if not a politi.
cal federalism, in which America must
be teacher, not pupil.
But the only lesson which America is
now teaching the world in the ideal
realm is precisely the lesson which Won
Hartmann has already put in words
namely, that the literature of the future
is to be as the farce which the Berlin
business man goes to see Of an evening
by way of recreation. It is doing its
best to prove that after Goethe the role
Of transcendent genius is no longer to be
played. By way of bringing about g
new movement in letters it would be an
excellent thing if some profoundly one
sided thinker should arise to shake to
pieces the eminently respectable but ia.
tally monotonous philosophy Of the
American schools. IA. s. Tunison iu

Saturday and has now settled down to
hard collegiate work for the rest Of the
school year.
Prof. Eaton had snch a severe cold
Tuesday and Wednesday that he was
unable to attend to his work. He is
again making it interesting for his
classes now however.
The military company is impatiently
awaiting the coming of the g bugle,
with which instrument bugler Ander-
son expects to awaken campus echoes
and recreant soldiers.
The K. X. o. society has four candi-
dates for membership and members
are expectantly waiting for the dark of

his regular ration of red pepper.
We cordially invite you and all your
friends 10 the college chapel on Friday
evening, Dec. II, to listen to a recital
that will then lie given by the music
departments of the Black Hills col
lege.
John Hall read the first of the the
ses before the geology class Wednes-

Mineral Resources of the Black Hills"
and was treated in his usual pleasing
style.
We hear that some of the girls are
wishing they had charge Of this col

If they wish to get out a"woman's edi-
ton" we would be very glad to aid them
and give them the benefit of our
years of experience.
Pres. Lymer spent last Sunday in
Edgemont looking after u schools
interests. Next Sunday he breaches
morning and evening at Oelrichs. If
good cause counts for anything he will
certainly be successful in his work for
the college.
According to the decision of the
judges of the Philomathean debate
last Saturday night Hawaii should be
annexed, and that at once. If con
gress knew of this decision it would
surely carry out President McKinley's
policy Immediately.
Next Saturday night the Philos elect
their officers for the winter term. AS
yet we have seen no political wires but
suppose they have been laid just the
same. 1t seems to us that the presi-
dents mantle should fall to David this
time. That we are not alone in this
belief we think the vote next Saturday
will show.
Mr.. Edward Hall has been faithfully
drilling a choir and chorus for many
weeks, and we shall soon enjoy some of
the results of all this work. Wednes-
