GOOD THING FoR MISSOURI.


st. Louis, May 1-Among the
changes which the new management
of the st. Louis exposition proposes
to inaugurate viii be the establish
ment in the big building of a perma-
nent exhibit of the natural products
of the state, which will be open the
year round 1t is proposed to make
it SO extensive in scope that it will
likely be the leading feature of the
uses to which the building will be
put. 1t will include display of the
mineral wealth, the lead, zinc, coal,
iron, and, in fact, everything that is
taken from the ground. The woods
of the state will have place in the
exhibit, and the many varieties. of
granite and other building stone with
which the state abounds. A perma-
nent exhibition of the varied re-
sources of the state viii, it is thought,
open the eyes of foreign capitalists,
who frequently get no farther into
the state than ST. Louis.

INTERESTING DECISION.
United States Supreme Court Knocks Out
State Law Compelling Trains to Stop
at County Seat Towns.

Washington, May LIN the SUI
preme court Monday an opinion was
handed down in the case of the Big
Four railroad VS.. the state of Hi
nOis. The case involved the constitu-
tionality of the state law of Illinois
requiring all trains to stop at county
seats in the state and the proceeding
originated in the form of petition
for writ of mandamus to compel the
Knickerbocker special running be-
tween New York and ST. Louis to stop
at all county seat stations. The case
was decided in favor of the state by
the Illinois supreme court. but
Mondays opinion reversed that judg
ment on the ground that the law in
this case is direct and unnecessary
burden on interstate commerce.

CONDITION GROWING WORSE.
Losses from Flood. in Texas May surpass
68,OOO,OOO-Labor Problem Serious
One Co Contemplate.

Austin, Tex, May 1.-Heayy rains
fell in many localities of central and
southwest Texas again to-day and
last night, and the flood situation is
growing worse instead of improving.
No reliable estimate can be made at
this time of the damage done to grow
ing crops. There is every indication
that the flooded area of the Brazos
and Colorado river valleys will exceed
that of the great inundation of last
year, when it was reliably estimated
the losses aggregated $s,000,000. No
additional damage can be done now,
for the corn in the bottoms is already
ruined and the cotton will have to be
replanted. The labor problem is the
hard one now. The negroes are leav-
ing the bottoms, and there is none
to take their places. In Williamson
county over 100 farm houses have been
swept away.

PIONEERS OF EVANGELISM.
DR.. Post Tells the Ecumenical Conference
the Importance of Good Physicians
In the Work of Missions.

New York, May 1.-The general
topic for discussion at the morning
session of the Ecumenical conference
in Carnegie hall Monday was medical
work" In a paper by Rev. DR.. George
"A. Post, professor of surgery in the
Syrian Protestant college, he said:
We believe that the first aim OF med
ical missions should be the relief CT suf-
fering from motives of brotherhood.
Medical missions arc the pioneers Of evan
gelism. They can be planted whore no
other branch of evangelical work is pos
sible. They are founded on need which
is universal, and felt by ALL The doctor,
therefore, has immediate and welcome
access to vast numbers who neither wish
nor will have any intercourse with other
missionaries. Were the offices of the doc
tor merely a bride to induce men to
listen to the gospel they would lose their
power to draw men to Christ. We be-
1ieve them to be a necessary outcome to
the humanity which Christ taught and
loved.

MI lion Dollar Check.

Greenwich, Conn.,, May Miss
Helen Richley Benedict, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. E. c. Benedict, was mar

dict home, Indian Head, a wedding

SITUATION is BAD.
Consul Fowler Says Chinese Are Guilty of
Most Diabollcal Acts Against Christian
Missionaries In That Country.

Washington, May Consul Fow-
Ter has included in his annual re-
port to the state department short
chapter devoted too the missionary
troubles in Shang Tung and northern
China. He refers to the peaceful con
ditions reported by him in his pre-
ceding report, and says:
Unfortunately. the story is now differ
ent. Since Christmas there has been
nothing but trouble. Riots, murder and
acts of the most diabolical nature have
been committed upon the native adher-
ents of the missionaries. The situation
grew bad that the Germans sent in
land a strong military force. burning
down one or two villages and taking
back with them several of the leaders
of the villages as hostages for future
peace. On several occasions, Americans
and Germans escaped by diplomacy and
pluck. The indemnity for these outrages
has just been paid and now the whole
western part ofothe province is in a fer
ment and much care will be necessary to
pass the winter without the loss of for
eign life.

TO INSIST on ADMISSION.
Status of Over a Hundred Delegates
to the Methodist Conference
Hangs on a Woman.
MRS. MMAHoa DECLINES oyER1uREs.
She Was Chosen = Lay Delexats from MI
nois and Persiass In Her Intentfon to
Make aContest-BishopT hoburn Advo-
Gates q Methodist Army of 100000 for
the salvation of Souls.

Chicago, May 1.-The fate of more
than $50 provisional delegates to the
general conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church, which win convene
in Chicago, depends upon the within of
a woman-Mrs. Matte Y. Mcmahon.
of Griggsville, Ill. This fact developed
when the formal announcement was
made that she intended to insist on
admission with the other delegates.
She was told if she persisted in her
intention to make a contest it would
result in the refusal of the general
conference to grant laymen the right
to participate in its sessions, but she
has declined all overtures. When the
conference is called to order Wednes-
day morning one of the first ques-
tons will be the seating of 152 pro-
visional delegates, all of whom are
1aymen. The arguments against their
admission are that no authority from
the general conference existed for
the election of the delegates at the
time they were chosen. The disci-
pline of the church makes it impos-
sible for woman to attend as \
delegate. This fact alone renders the
case important in the sight of stick
lers for adherence to parliamentary
rules. Then it is held further that if
the 152 delegates are admitted Mrs.
Mcmahon will become a part of the
conference. On the other hand, if she
is debarred it is asserted the rights
of the others will be v4tiated.
A Methodist army 100000 strong,
consecrated and banded together for
the salvation of souls, may be the
outcome of the great gathering of
Methodists which is about to be held
in this city. Bishop j. NJ. Thoburn,
whose field of work is in India, and
who has been a missionary and a
leader of missionaries nearly all his
life, will propose to the general con-
ference this great crusade.

SMALL IN COMPARISON.
Losses by the United States In the Philip.
pines Dwarfed by the British Casual
ties In South Africa.

Washington, May LIN COMPARE
Son with the casualties suffered by
the British troops in South Africa,
those sustained by the American
forces in the Philippines seem very
small. A statement just compiled by
the war department shows that since
July L, 1898, when American troops
reached Manila, until April 81, 1900.
these deaths have occurred: Killed
and died of wounds, 43 officers, $50
men; died of disease, &c officers, 1855
men; total, 60 officers, 2,1S7 men.
Grand total, 1886. Several thousand
men have been wounded, but only a
small percentage have died of wounds,
and most of them have returned to
duty.

FOREST FIRES uNQuENcHED.
Town OF Ames. Mich, Practically Wiped
Out-Inha bitants of Other Towns Taken
Away for Safety.

Marinette, Wis, May Forest
fires rage furiously north of Fisher,
Mich, along the Wisconsin & Micili-
gan railway. The property damage
will be large. The town of Ames,
Mich, was practically wiped out, en-
failing loss of $4,000 or more. The
Wisconsin & Michigan ran a special
train up the line Sunday to rescue the
fre-stricken people in the small vii
lagos along the road. All the inhabit-
ants of the towns of Ames and
Nathan were taken away for safety.
1t is said the Wisconsin g. Michigan
passenger which left here last night
was unable to get further north than
Fisher. At the latter place only a
heroic resistance saved the town.
Forest fires are burning everywhere
north of here. The country is very
dry and the fires spread rapidly.

Count Alexis Davidoff, at which the
prince of Wales and most of the MEM
bers of the United States and other
embassies were present, the brides
veil caught fire from a candle which
she carried in her hand. The bride
groom maintained his press nee of
mind, seized the veil and quenched
the incipient blaze by crumpling the
gauzy fabric between his hands.

CHICAGO CHEERS DEWEY.
The Admiral Received Great Ova-
tion Upon His Arrival in the Lake
City Monday Morning.
70 Be THE cIIY's GUEST THREE DAYS.
On Thursday He Will Go to Jacksonville tn
Attend the Illinois Encamp ment, G. A.
R.-Young George Dewey the FIRST to
Naval Ball Last Night.

Chicago, May 1..Amid the boom
ing of cannon and the cheers of hun
dreds of people, Admiral George
Dewey arrived in Chicago Monday
For the next three days he will be
the guest of this city and the pro-
gramme for his entertainment will
take up nearly every moment of his
time until his departure Thursday
morning for Jacksonville, Ill. The
special train bearing the Admiral and
Mrs. Dewey was met near South Chi
cago by special train carrying the
general executive committee of the
Dewey celebration and including
Plamandon and the admiraTs son,
train arrived at the Grand Central
depot six minutes ahead of schedule
time, II o'clock The immense crowd
which had congregated in the streets
surrounding the station and had
packed almost to suffocation the big
depot building itself, was not allowed
to go inside the train shed. The
moment the train slowly pulled into
the shed, however, and the white
moustached naval hero was seen,
roar of cheers went up from the for
tunate ones inside the station and
was quickly taken up by the thou
sands in the streets. Even under the
vigorous pressure of the police, the
immense crowd would hardly yield
enough room for the carriages but
cheered continually and Rsessed
closer. The police finally succeeded in
clearing the street and the party pro-
ceeded down Harrison street en- route
for the Auditorium annex, where
apartments overlooking Lake Michi-
gan had been reserved.
The route to the annex lay along
Fifth avenue to jackson boulevard,
thence down Michigan avenue to the
hotel. Along those streets for hours
before the arrival of Admiral Dewey
were gathered crowds that literally
packed the sidewalks and that kept
the police busy from filling the
streets also, and the cheering started
