til 1892.
It was at the general conference of the
Methodist ministers at Philadelphia that
he was elected bishop and his first as
signment following his election to thai
Office was to Topeka
This position was filled by him with
great credit and it was at the general
conference in 1892 at Omaha when he
was sent to Detroit where he died.
T. b. Sweet, of this city, knew Bishop
Ninde twenty-five years ago when he
lived in Cincinnati. He was then the
pastor of st. Pauis church.
He left this pastorate to become pres
ident of the theological department OF
the Methodist school at Evanston, Ill,
the Northwestern university.
Representing that conference he Visi-
ted Topeka. in 1880 when the general
conference was held here
Since being made a bishop, Mr.. Ninde
has made two trips abroad. One was to
Corea, and the last time, about tWd
years before his departure from Topeka
he made the trip around the world, ac-
companied by his only daughter, Miss
Mary
At the conference at Cleveland in 1896
Bishop Ninde was put in charge of the
EpWorth League of the United States
lie held that position for four years, be-
ing relieved of that duty by the last
conference which was held IN Chicago
last summer
T. B. Sweet said. Il have known
Bishop Ninde for nearly 30 years and il
all that time never saw him inpatierE
but once 1t was at a meeting OF the
general conference IN Philadelphia. He
had just gotten out Of bed from a sick
ness, and / felt that he was unable to
stand the strain the conference work
would necessitate and demonstrated
with him He persisted in working
however
p T. Bonebrake, when told of the
bishops death by a State Journal re-
porter expressed regret at the fact
Bishop Ninde and Mr.. Bonebrake were
neighbors during the time Mr.. Ninde
lived in Topeka and were great friends.
James 4. Troutman was also told of
the death by a reporter. He said
Bishop Ninde was an excellent man
He was one of the best orators the state
has ever known.

not be in close touch with the politicians
who have been pulling the wires for

a man like c. s. Gleed. and they could

CHICKERING'S WIDOWS.
Four Women Claim the Estate of q
PIainfeld, Conn, Nan.

-Four Women Claim the Estate Of q
Plainfeld, Conn, Ean-
New Haven, Jan. 3.-The question as
to how many. widows c. H. Chickering,
the former proprietor OF the Plaintield
(Conn.) hotel leaves is one that is likely
to keep the courts busy for some time to
come. Chickering was found dead in
Albion yesterday, and there are thus far
four claimants for his estate from wo-
men who show certificates of their mar
riage to him.
Chickering appeared in Plainfied last
summer ard bought the hotel, and, on
account of his address and popularity,
soon became a leading light in the vii
lage. There was a woman with him who
he said was his housekeeper. He disap-
peared. on election day just as the sher-
iff arrived to attach his person.
His housekeeper claimed to be his
wife, and three days later a woman
from Springfield, Mass, arrived with
the same claim. It was then stated that
Chickering was engaged to marry the
daughter of a well known farmer in the
district
Since then two other women have ap-
peared in search of their missing spouse,
and there was a general reunion today
over the body in Albion.
Chickering was killed by a freight
train while walking on the railroad
track.

This new departure by the Pacific Mail
is due to its quarrel with the Panama

that all prospects for a settlement of
the fight have vanished
To aid it in its fight for Central Amer

government has agreed to give the TWO
lines jointly q subsidy of $4,000 a year.
They also receive subsidies from several
Central American states.
Pacific Mail officials say that the mail
steamers will continue to run from Pan

several new ports in addition. They say
the Pacific Mail is bound to lose consider
