things by the ministerial union has IN
cited hostilities against the churches l
make broad statement, and think 1
can substantiate it by figures tnaL over
90 per cent. OF the young men OF TINS
city are not churcf-goers- They not
only refuse to attend church. but they
dc not entertain that wholesome respect
that they should have for the ministers
and for religion.
This fight has suggested the idea, to
some OF our citizens to get together and
establish church that win deal with
the spiritual, moral and intellectual well
fare Of the people, instead Of their pol
1tics and private habits-a church upon
the broad lines of Christianity, to which
a young man or a young lady can go
with the assurance that his or her neigh
Dor will not be denounced, or his or her
political ideas will not be assaulted.
The lines upon which such church
can pc established and maintained are
simply a matter of detail ana can or
will likely be settled some future time.
This know, that the suggestion has
met with very generous and favorable
responses Several persons VINO nave
contributed to the support and main
tenance of TOpeka's foremost educa-
tiohal institution have concluded that 1t
has become simply a political annex to
the ministerial union, and have offered
to devote their contributions to the es-
taDilshlnent OF a good, broad gagged
church, where all men can receive the
benefit of it in that way

when called upon to a church fund, re-

Foreign missions, and there draw the

year, outside of the contributions to my
own church. to be used in assisting
others.
I would be glad to devote this to the
establishment and maintenance of q
good, clean, broad-gauged church for
the benefit OF the people. We are much
in need Of a church of this kind, and I
hope that all those who love and re-
spect churches and Christianity will take
hold of it and make it a success. This
its time to the spiritual. intellectual
and moral welfare of the people while
the ministerial union is looking after
politics.

ENTHUSIASM FOR BULLER.
Reception of British General at South
hampton Very Marked.

New York. Nov. 1o.-Lord Wolseley,
says the Tribune's London correspond
ent, had expected to be present at Guild
hall banquet but at the last minute he
changed his mind and proceeded to
Southampton to welcome Gen. Butler on
his return from South Africa Lady
Audrey and Miss Butler were also at
Southampton and the meeting between
them and the general was very touch
ing. Gen. Butler is recognized on all
sides as a fighter and although certain
errors and miscalculations have party
diminished the brilliance of his achieve
ments, the task which he undertook was
immea Surably greater than that of 9th
er British commanders in South Africa
with perhaps more even records. This
fact is now being generally understood
and his reception on reaching South
ampton lacked nothing in the way of
enthusiasm
