Watkins Newman Murdered for Mon.
ey, and House Set on Fire.
Knoxville, Tenn, Aug 1S-One of
the most atrocious crimes for a mer-
cenary motive that have been perpe-
trated here in years, occurred about
1880 last night:
Watkins Newman. a wealthy and
highly respected young bachelor of
Jefferson City, was murdered and his
body left in the house which was set
on fire. II was frame structure and
burned rapidly. Isham Newman, a
brother of Watkins. only saved the
body by most heroic exertions after
II had been partly burned. The in.
strument used to kill Newman was
evidently a blunt one, as the skull was
Crushed. Robbery was the motive.
Even the money which he had in his
clothing was taken, including a gold
double eagle, which already has given
a clue to the murderers. They may
be lynched If caught, as excitement is
high.

a large fiat boulder watching his

The Redwood gazette., 1902-10-15

Park church, St. Paul, has long
been struggling under a heavy
church debt and it thought if it
could only have the conference next
year it would materially aid it in its
final efforts to get out. But Mr..
Lutz kept quietly to work and
toward the end of the week it be-
came apparent to Worthington that
the prospect did not warrant a
further contest, and she withdrew.
At this point Rev. Langley of Cen
trail Park sprung a little surprise
by moving in open conference that
the location of the next conference
be left to a committee of five, ap-
pointed by the presiding elders.
Mr.. Lutz was not present to oppose
the motion so it went through. Mr..
Langley's object was to have COM
mittee appointed favorable to St.
Paul, but MIR. Lutz captured a
majority OF the committee, and. not
being able to agree on recommen-
dation, the committee referred il
back to the conference. On Monday
morning the committee made its re-

port and the pastors of both church
.es were asked to speak for their
respective charges. Redwood Falls
was first voted upon, a rising vote
being called for. When it was seen
that a handsome majority was vot-
ing for Redwood Falls one after the
other of the members began climb
ing on the band wagon" until not
more than dozen were left. When
the vote for st. Paul was called for
the shy few looked very lonesome
and the crowd gave them the laugh
and began to cheer for Redwood
Falls. It was on the whole a very
exciting contest.

HE LANDED, HOWEVER.
Rev. G. w. Lutz Had an Exciting Time
at Rochester.

Rev. Lutz had quite a skirmish at
the recent annual conference at
Rochester to land the conference at
Redwood Falls next year. There
were three candidates in the field,
St. Paul. Worthington and Red
wood Falls. Mr.. Lutz was at the
seat of conference early and had
such a nicely prepared invitation
that it at once attracted the atten-
ton of all. But the two former
appealed to the sympathies of the
pastors by claiming they needed
the conference very much to ad-
vance the interests of their in
dividual churches. They also set
up the claim that they would be
more accessible than Redwoo Falls
would be. Worthington is building
a new church aud thought it would
be nice climax to the enterprise to
entertain the conference. and it
would set Methodism in Worthing-
ton squarely on its feet. Central

many who planned to go were un-
able to do so. But the progressive
members of progressive districts
were on hand. Notably Lamberton,
Sanborn. Wabasso and Sundown.
Lamberton, No. 81, was represented
by three members and the superin-
tendent of it's schools. Sanborn,
No. II, had two members, while No.
~ had all its board present. There
were 33 districts represented in the
meeting. A good deal of question
ing on school room conditions, the
more highly qualified teacher, the
school library and its relationship
to a good school were fully dis
cussed. Heating and ventilation OF
schools came in for share. The
pupils from the Wabasso grad
ed school came in at p. m. and

In the series Of books by Guerber
recently reviewed in the Graphic we
find the last one the best. The class ic
myths of the Grecian ard Roman peo
pie has been such an unfailing source
of Inspiration not only for poets but
for painters aud sculptures and even
modern writer's that they form a vital
part of our literature and art. There
is an unwholso ONE side to myth olOgy
and in this book it is not touched upon.
only the more beautiful phaseis givenf
which will exert healthful influence
upon the imagination, besides being
valuable in all study of art and liter
AZURE. Both the Greek and Latin forms
of the proper names are given, but
the author chooses to retain the Latin
names chiefly, because they are MOI e
often used. in poetry and art.
There is a map showing the location
of myths, and the illustrations are an
education in art of themselves. The
quotations from mOders writings make
this book much more interesting and
much broader than the average book
on mythology.
The three works Legends of the
Middle Ages. Myths of Northern
Lands and myths of Greece and
Rome" form d valuable set of hooks.
