and the Anti-Imperialist has issued a

fit of Shattuc's constituents.
Mr. Atkinson wrote letter to the
postmaster general, under date of Sept

copies of the magazine TO the Philip
pines. and adds: IF you intend to in
luce a postmaster to violate the United

given to the postmaster in Boston, to
the end that ! may notify him of the
day and hour on which these documents
will be mailed. so that if there is any

URGES HOLDING OF CORN.

Secretary of Kansas Board OF Agrt-
culture Gives Advice to Farmers.
Topeka. Kas., Sept. 26.-Secretary CO.
burn, OF the state board of agriculture,
is urging the farmers to hold their sur
plus corn. He has sent out this appeal:
There has never been a season of I'M
usual production and low prices for
corn which was not in the near future
Followed by one of comparative search
~ with prices correspondingly high,
and there is no sufficient reason for be-
iieving this so far unyarying rule is
likely to be changed for the present &C.
casion.
The moral of this is that Kansas
farmers should market as grain no
more of their present crop than is nee
essary. They would rightly have con-
sidered themselves favored and might
lily prosperous with a yield less by 1OO.-
100000 bushels than they have now.
IF they were to hold, as they could do
very comfortably, this extra 1OO,OOO,0O0
bushels in substantial. rat-proof cribs
on the farm for a year or more, it would
not only relieve to that extent the
downward pressure of glut on the
market and help to steady and firm
prices on the remainder but would
make the growers instead of the specu-
prices advance or there is another
shortage"
To make a good fish sauce take some
! plain, thick, melted butter and add a
teaspoonful of mushroom ketchup with
the same quantity of picked walnut,
chopped finely.

Chicago, Ill, Sept. 26.-The Times
Herald's Washington special says:
President Mckinley has not made up
the itinerary of his western trip and
many people are likely to be disap-
pointed because they had made plans
for the entertainment OF the president

dates.
The president has fixed engagements
for Galesburg, Chicago, Minneapolis
and st. Paul. His visits to other places
must come in an order which will suit
his convenience. He will speak at
Galesburg on the morning of Oct. z,
and will reach Chicago that evening.
He will be in Chicago Sunday, Mon
day and Tuesday. He will be in SIS
Paul Oct. IL. to review the Minnesota
volunteers on their return from the
Philippines
The president has Wednesday, Oct.
H. at his disposal, and may visit Ev-
ansville to attend the reunion of the
Blue and Gray. In that event the pres
ident will not visit Milwaukee until his
return from South Dakota and Iowa.
1t is possible that his visits to Peoria
and Quincy will be made on his return

MILLIONS FOR REPAIR.

E

Washington, Sept. 26.-It Is already
apparent to naval experts that the gov
eminent will have to spend several
million dollars in refitting for active
service the vessels which composed Adj
miral Dewey's fleet when 1t destroyed
SPANS naval power in the far east.
Secretary Long has approved the maxi
ing of repairs to the cruiser Raleigh,
which will cost approximately $500, 600
The report of the board of survey which
inspected the cruiser Boston, lately re-
turned to the United States and now
out OF commission at Mare island,
shows that another $500, 900 will have to
be spent upon that vessel in order to
put her in condition for recommission.
Reports received at the department.
regarding the condition of the cruiser
Olympia show that she will have to be
laid up for some time and naval ex-
perts estimate that before she is agaii;
in service she will have cost the gov
eminent not less than 100000 for re-
pairs.
| There are three vessels still on the
Asiatic station which were under Ad-
miral Dewey's command when he

! Baltimore and the gunboats Concord

of 1898 and will probably not come

THINK LIFE INSURANCE SINFUL.
Illinots German Luthernns Decide
That 1t Is stolen Money.

ILLINOIS, GERMAN OeCl0e
That Ii Is Stolen Money.
Litchheld, Ill.,. Sept. 26-At Mount
Olive last week a conference Of the
preachers of the German Lutheran
church in the district assembled to dis
auss the relation of life insurance to
Gods written word.
They hold that money and goods can
be rightly obtained in only three ways
by work, by gift or by inheritance.
Money secured by life insurance is the
result of good luck or a species of a
game of chance; that life insurance is
against the first commandment, be-
cause it takes a mans trust off God
and places ii on the insurance COM
pany. that it is against the seventh
commandment, because by it the bene-
ficiary gets something not paid for,
therefore stolen; that it is against the
ninth commandment, because the per-
son who invests in life insurance is
taught to covet something not his own
They hold. therefore. that life insur-
ance is sinful.
| About eighty ministers attended the
conference and the sessions lasted sew
eral days. The results of their DELHI
erations have been embodied in mum
Der of resolutions and these will be dis
/ tributed among their followers.

Many apple trees were twisted and
broken down and in many instances
entire trees We're wrenched from the

estimate that fully one-fourth of tbs
entire apple crop has been blown from
the trees.
1t is estimated that fully 100000 bush
els of apples are on the ground, repre-
senting total loss of $4,000 to the
growers. The apples upon clay sol
are worthless. owing to the fact tha
