Solved at Last.

Chicago. Aug. I3.-A big Newfound-
land dog that dragged the body Of John
Werner from the lake solved one OF the
greatest mysteries that ever puzzled the
people OF Ksnosha. Wis.
John Werner was drowned at the foot
of Twenty ninth street. He was a son
OF Peter Werner, one OF the best known
citizens OF tho Wisconsin city, but the
romance that has played an important
part in his life had been broken by .
lovers quarrel and he left Kenosha
about fourteen years sgo, declaring that
he would naver return. He kept his
word until last evening. when a pine
box took back to the Werner home the
body Of the son who had been missing
for 30 many years. All this time he had
lived within ffty miles OF his native
town.
For years the Werner family had been
searching for him. Three years ago the
father, Peter Werner, died, and left an
an estate. When the heirs sought to
settle it in the courts, advertisements
were placed in the papers in all parts
of the country asking for some trace Of
John Werner; but il he saw the notices
he was dumb to the appeal and never
wrote. An insurance policy WAS all that
identified the body.

BLEssING IN pIseuIsE

The Kansas wheat harvest is late,
and in most localities in the state the
garnering Of the big wheat crop viii
not comm ence until week after next
two or three weeks later than usual
Is the late harvest a manifestation
of Divine Providence? Had the wheat
ripened this year at the usual time it
would have been seriously damaged by
dry weather, for the heavy rain this
week would not have saved it, because
it would have come too late
But the thing that delayed the ripen-
ingl of the wheat and saved the crop to
Kansas was the very thing that peo-
pie complained a great deal about early
in the summer and during the spring
mOnths-cold weather.
People fretted and said that the
farmers would not be able to plant
their corn because Of the wet. cold
weather, for the season was one Of the
most backward experienced in the state
for many years. But among other
things that were retarded was the
growing wheat crop, and when the
drouth came the grain was not so far
advanced that it could not withstand
the effect of the dry weather.
Consequently it has been found that
the weather about which people COM
planned a few weeks ago was a bless
ing in disguise, for it proved the sal
walton of the Kansas wheat crop.

SUCCESS OF THE 2. M. G. A.

Several thousand delegates Assem- bled
in Mechanics han, Boston. this week to
celebrate the hftieth anniversary of the
organization of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association. The names Of the
men who have appeared on the pro-
gramne from day to day are enough to
convince one of the magnitude OF this
great religious organization and to
show that it has become in the first
half century of its existence a institu-
ton backed by the best men of all civil
lied countries. To enumerate the prom
inent- personages who have participated
in this great convention is entirely un-
necessary after what the press dis
patches have given out. But it is suf-
hcient to say that the list includes men
who are known everywhere as the very
first in the professions and callings that
they have pursued. And it is all the
more refreshing to know that these
men have been broad enough net to be
content with accomplishing great deeds
in their particular life callings, but
have persisted in linking themselves to
a movement that has become such u
power in regenerating and elevating
the young manhood of the world
In the early days the Y NJ c. A had
much the same fight for existence that
every great institution of its like ex-
perienees. Fifty years ago Protestant
tism had among its numbers people who
believed that even the use of musical
instruments in religious worship was a
sacri1ege- There stiu exist a few OF
these precise beings, but their number
is comparatively small Half a century
ago, however, they were sufficiently
numerous to throw great obstacles in
the way of the growth of the Y. NJ. c.
A An Institution which endeavored to
reach young men by touching and puri-
flying their bodily and mental lives met
with but slight encouragement from
the sects which believed that solemnity
was the prime requisite of the best re-
ligious life.
Happily, that time has almost pass
ed and now the association can cOncen-
trate its main power for the betterment
of mems lives and this too with the as
sistance Of the other great religious
bodies of the world.
The fact as announced publicly be-
forehand that this would be one of the
greatest religious gatherings ever held
in North America seems to have been
substantiated. and is significant of the
power to which the Young Mems Chris
tian Association has arisen.

SALARY OF MAYOR.

The mayor contest now presents one
funny contingency In what a predica-
ment Mayor Hughes will be if the su-
preme court should decide that Albert
Parker who received the most votes
must be given the Office of mayor.
Mayor Hughes has devoted himself
to the salary question with no small de-
gree of earnestness. He wants his own
salary raised which simply proves that
in one respect at least he is much like
other men.
This far there is nothing strange in
the proceedings but suppose that the
court should decide that Mayor Hughes
must turn the Office over to Albert
Parker. He will then appear in the light
Of the Good Samaritan for Mr.. Parker
and not himself would profit by his
h.erest in the salary ordinance.
This contingency has not yet arisen
but the contemplation Of such situa-
ton is enough to make Mayor Hughes
wish that such a thing as the will of the
people We're out of style.
