He urged the great Importance of the
work of the board as every church
building is the means of working and
stands for the salvation of men in q
general way, and in special way be-
comes sacred to many hearts as the
place where they found God.
The doctors address was replete with
personal recollections. He expressed
his appreciation of prohibition as it
exists In Kansas and enthusiastically
of the United States, for which he was
heartily applauded.

Wreck Near Argos.

Near the hour of 1880 Wednesday
evening freight train on the Nickle
Plate road was wrecked two miles west
of Argos. A large number of cars
were ditched and piled one upon an
other In a most chaotic fashion. The
cars undergoing the most damage were
cold meat cars with full cargoes. The
4:38 passenger train was delayed sever
al hours. BY seven o'clock this morn
ing the track was cleared but large
masses of wreckage still remained
along the right of way.

Youngsters ON the warpath.

A crowd of young folks, ranging
from twelve to sixteen years of age,
made trip to Argos In q hack last
night. The evening was spent in walk
ing and eating. At an early hour they
started on the return trip. When they
had travelled about half the distance
back, one of the youngsters suddenly
remembered that his father had charged
him with an errand he had neglec-
ted. The driver again turned the horses
in the direction of Argos. The trip
was not tedious. Despite the extra
amount of time consumed, Plymouth
was reached by twelve o'clock.

Appreciated by Rev. Lands.

We desire in this public way to &C
knowledge an appreciation of the sur
prise given us last Saturday evening by
the members and friends of the Young
Peoples Christian Union. They came
to inform me of the fact that Sunday
Sept. 4, was my thirty eighth birthday.
The evening was spent in social con-
versation. Light refreshments were
served. They presented me with very
handsome rocking chair which appre-
ciate very much. We shall hold in low.
ing memory the kindness and help OF
the young people and all our friends.

Rockhill's big hack was crowded
with Bon Tons and gallant Blue Rib
bon boys last night. Pretty lake was
reached about $50. Regardless of the
fact that the affair was to be strictly a
moonlight picnic they put in their time
until the moon arose to good advant-
age. The good lunch which the girls
had put up, was eaten on the porch of
one of the cottages. Dan Longs boats
were then hired and the entire party
rode on the breast of the dimpling lake
until the night was well spent. Just as
the court house clock gave one solemn,
startling stroke, the returning Bon
Tons and Blue Ribbons entered Plym-
outh. They had high time undoubt-
eddy.

THE EFFECT UPON SPAIN.

The destruction Of her philippine feet Is not
nearly as great n blow 10 Spain as would be
the loss Of the squadron which Is now on us
way hither from the Cape Verd Islands. The
fall Of Manila will not trouble her as would the
capture of Havana The loss OF the Philippines
will not be comparable with the loss Of Cuba and
Porto Rico. albeit they are so much larger and
more populous than the latter stands Never
theless, the catastrophe Of Sunday ar Manila Is
a serious one. by far the most serious Spain
has known within the memory Of living men.
It Is serious in itself. involving the loss Of so
many ships and men, and as consequence
thereof the loss Of the greater part OF her colo
NAL possessions. Still more serious Is IT as nm
earnest of what Is to be expected in the near
future. when far mightier American fleet
meets the remainder of SPANS navy where
there are no forts to aid the latter and no har-
bors for It's refuge. The blow TO Spanish pride
Is great: and rude IS the awakening from
dreams that the kinsmen OF Sidona could for
q moment cope with the knsmen of Grenville
and Drake.
But there Is another consideration perhaps
most grave Of all. The Spanish are a passion
ate and tickle race. much given to revolutions.
II was during the last Cuban war before the
present that they had their latest effective revo-
lu,ionary spasms. turning out dynasty after
dynasty and administration after administEl
ton. To what extent those spasms were pro
noted by that war may be an undetermined
question What Is certain Is that this prescn;
war has greatly aroused discomfort The Car
lists are rampant and truculent. The mob OF
Madrid murmurs. The civil guard is hard
taxed 10 maintain. public order. The King is
a helpless boy. the Regent IS woman and
foreigner. and Spain is muttering vciously.
Eve need Spaniard and a man Now comes
disaster such as the present generation has not
known before. BY baleful omen the lost flag
ship OF the lost squadron at Manila bore the
name OF this much-tried Queen Regent. It may
well be asked If its fate is forcshadowing Of
hers.
We do not wish il. We would not have the
horrors Of intestine war imposed upon Spain
in addition to disastrous foreign war. We have
no hatred for the hapless boy who wears the
crown. nor for the sad and stricken woman
who yields the scepre. 1t was not to expel
