An Important Matter to Come Before the
Meeting That Is to be Held in St. Paul
the Present week-Movement to Divert
Some of the Money to the Maintenance
of other schools.
Interest of Swedish Lutherans will
this week be conferred in the annual
session of Augustana synod to be held
in st. Paul beginning Friday. Action
which is TO he taken at this meeting
of the synod will be of the greatest
Importance to Augustana college in
the matter of its financial support.
The entire church has in the past
united in the support of this college,
but now a proposition has been raised
TO divert some of this support to
other schools which have been estab-
lished.
This will be the chief business of
the synod outside the now biennial
church boards. The proposition as it
now stands is TO leave each synod free
to support its own educational institu-
ton. Colleges under denominational
control have been established in Min
nesota, Kansas and New York. The
Minnesota conference has made a for
nal request for the privilege of divert
ing its financial aid from Augustana
to its own college, and Kansas and
New York are expected to make SINH
lar requests.
There is vacancy in the faculty of
iAugustaua Theolugi. al seminary of
the synod, and two of the leading
preachers of the church are candidates
for the place. A lively canvass is
being carried on by the friends of the
two men, DR.. f. +. Bartholomew, of
Rock Island, and DR.. &. NJ. Esbjorn.
of Mansfield, Oregon. Prof. Bartho-
lomew is now professor Of English in
the college.
| Illinois Man for President.
Rev. Dr.. u. c. Ranseen, of Chicago,
now vice president of the synod, is
! being actively pushed for the presi-
| dency. For 20 years he has been pas
tor or the Gethsemane church in Chi
cago, the largest in the city, and he
| is one of the leading theologians of
! the denomination.
! The president OF the synod is DR..
last week, going north Friday. At
the close of the synod he goes to
| Sweden to enter Il passionate.
! There are 225, 900 members of the
| synod in the United States and Cana
da aud the representation is by con-
| ference. as the state and provincial
| organizations are termed. Repre-

are equal, being one OF each for every

The TempletOn Family.

The 5th annual reunion of the lem
pleton family was held on Saturday, the
16th. on the old homestead, opposite
Phillipston, Pa. There were about sixty
of the family and invited guests pres
ent. The weather was pleasant and all
present enjoyed themselves visiting and
talking over old times.
The Templeton family settled in that
neighborhood about the year 1924. John
Templeton, the oldest of the family
living, who is 70 years old and Margaret
who is 50 years old were present, having
attended each reunion during past five
years.
The saddest thing of this reunion is
that Margaret was stricken with blind
ness last spring She was very cheerful
under her affection and greeted every
one with kind word and was glad 10
hear each familiar voice.
The other members of the original
family present were: Mrs Mary Bow
ser. of Plumville, Pa; Mrs. Barbara
Mock, of Phillipston, Pa. The other
member not present are Philip T., OF
Fairyiew; Thos. A, of Ocean Beach,
Gala. VIM. D., of Delton, Mich.
Those present enjoyed themselves al
though so short time with each other
they separated hoping to meet again

number

Phillips OH Trusts.

Washington, Sept. 19-The assertion
made by Industrial Commissioner Ken
nedy, that he does not like to associate
with an octopus while he is investigat-
ing trusts, does not set well upon Vice
Chairman Phillips, against whom it
was directed.
Mr.. Phillips returned from his home
at New Castle this morning. "Itispret-
ty tough" said Mr.. Phillips, Ito be call
ed an octopus, and represented as being
in greater trust than the Standard is
by the Standard Oil Trust and,its friends.
Everyone at all acquainted with the
facts in the struggle between the indie
pendent producers and refiners knows
that the voting trust in the Pure Oil
Company was formed for the sole rea-
son that it was necessary to prevent il
from being wrecked by the Standard
Il did not ask for appointment as a
member of the commission and | will
not ask to be relieved of the duties OF
member. If the President asks me tc
resign the reason for the request will be
published.
1.-THE Standard and its friends are
talking as if the only purpose in having
the commission created was to investi
gate trusts. That, however, is but ar
incident, although, owing to the promi
nence of trusts, it has become a prett,
big incident"

heard most frequently since the matter
has been mentioned
SARVERSVILLE, SEPT 10, 1899.
JOHN III. NEGLEY, ESQ:
DEAR SIR-You had a communica-
ton in the CITIZEN a few weeks ago in
which you spoke of and favored a
Centennial celebration for Butler coun-
ty. | hope it will be held, and just as
soon as by the most liberal construction
of historical dates the county can be
honestly counted to be 100 years old.
Have it, if we can, next year, 1900
1t is centennial year at any rate. If
the ancients could haye their Jubilee
every 80 years we ought to. have one at
least every 100 years.
The sooner the better, before all are
dead who have a personal recollection
of Butler county as it was 40 or 80 years
ago and who had an acquaintance with
the early settlers Yours truly,

A pleasant event occurred at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Baxter Logan, of Ma

quet of pink and white fall roses. After
