REV. PETER RIJNHART.
Christian church, and Is 81 years ola.
He came to Toronto in 1889. In 1891
he made his first journey to Chinese
mission fields; ip 1894, his second, &C
companied by his bride, a medical mis-
%sionary.
Few missionaries and explorers have
penetrated Tibet's interiors. Lander
came back from a short s~ojourn in the
Forbidden Land" looking twenty
years older than when he started.
Fear is entertained that Mr.. Rijnhart
Is undergoing tortures similar to those
Lander endured. Tibet's religion is a
corrupt form OF Buddhism, and the
government is a p%riestocraey, and the
capital is at L'hassa, where the Grand
Lama lives. Moravians and other de-
nominations have long made earnest
efforts to open Tibet to the Gospel.
To carry the Gospel to this Sealed
Land" Mr.. Rijnhart and his wife left
Tankar, May, 1898. He wrote to Mr..
Paul:
"Oh this morning for the unknown

After they had Travelled a few days
in uninhabited country, their Chinese
guides ran away in the night. At the
foot of Tang-la pass, the baby died. At
Nga Chuka they engaged fresh guides
and ponies. They wanted to stop over
winter at Nga Chuka, but were hur-
ried off by the officials. Guides led
them astray. They were set upon by
robbers; all their ponies but one shot
Or carried off, and the guides deserted.
Seeing some tents across the river, Mr..
Rijnhart started towards them for
help. She writes:
Il waited alone with God until dark.
The thought came, "the tents are far
away, he will be back by morning.
It gives one a strange sensation being
alone among a hostile people, without
even a tent or a dog"
After watching and waiting several
days, she paid some tent people whom
she saw across the river to get her
over on a yak (ox). Efforts to hear OF

terrified when her escort was attacked
by drunken Tibetans, she at last
reached Ia Chien-Lu. There. In the
home Of the Tibetan Band of Chris

MANUFACTURERS DISPUTE
RETARDS THE FARMERS
An Injunction on the Use of Harvest
ers That Intefferes With
Operations.

WOODLAND. June pa war between
Stockton manufacturers of combined har-
vesters seems likely TO subject many Sac
ramento Valley farmers to a great deal
of annoyance and some expense. Quite
number of the Haines-H ouser harvesters
have been sold in Yolo and adjoining
counties this season. The Holt Bros, a
rival manufacturing establishment in
Stockton claims that there are certain
devices used on the Haines- Houser ma
chine for which the Holt Company holds
patents. Farmers purchased these ma
chimes in good faith and without any
knowledge that Holt Bros. had set up a
claim of infringement of patent. It seems
like a hardship and an Unnecessary an
noyance to delay harvesting operations n
such a critical stage, especially when the
farmers are nc the responsible parties if
there has really been any infringement
On Wednesday Deputy United States
Marshal J. A. Littlefield came up from
San Francisco and served an injunction
upOn w w. Nelson. directing him to ap-
near in the United States Circuit Court in
San Francisco and show cause. if any,
why he should not be restrained from US
ing a Haines-HOuse~ harvester
All other YOlO County purchasers have
received a letter from Holt Bros attor-
ney in which the demand is made that
they Immediately desist from the use Of
count to Holt Bros. for all gains. dam
ages, profits or advantages to which they
may be entitled by reason of an infringe
ment of patent. They are threa tened with
a suit unless they Immediately comply

the question on which the future Of

SAN JOSE. June 22.-Mrs. Emile T.
Spring will receive a divorce from her
husband, II. M. n. Spring, and the Gus
tody of three small children also a goodly
share of her husbands property. which is
estimated to be worth over $4,000. Judge
Lorigan said as much to-day when the
case was submitted to him for decision.
The Spring divorce suit ended rather
abruptly this afternoon. Considerable in
terest centered in the proceedings be-
cause of the prominence of both parties
and the fact that it was heard behind
closed doors added additional interest. IT
was expected 1t would take a sensational
turn, but it proved to be the dullest case
ever tried with locked doors.
Spring was charged with infidelity. two
Misses Bahr of San Francisco being CO.
respondents. The names of these young
ladies who med Springs affection
from his wife We're not mentioned. De
tectives, however, proved the Council
mans unfaithfulness and told of the dual
life he led.
Spring was the first witness to-day and
the sole one for the defense. He was not
questioned about the charge made. Prop
erty interests were gone lnt9' "a a poo poor
ness did not amount to much and almost
admitted he was penniless. He said ne
