great interest in college work. Has been
superintendent of missions in Mon
mouth Presbytery for the past twelve
years and has been president of the

associa ton for eleven years.
1t was with difficulty that he OBJ
tanned his release from the work at
Biggsville by his presbytery, as the con-
gregation sent strong delegation to
the presbytery to protest against it, but
the superior advantages of Topeka in
the way of education for his family in
huenced him to come to our city. Col

large salary to take charge of the work
there, but this too he turned down to

PORTO RICO TAKEN IN.
Island Il Included In Reciprocity
Treaty With France.

Washington. Sept. 6.-The president
has proclaimed an agreement entered
into with the government of France on
the 22nd of August last extending an
important trade advantage to the island
of Porto Rico by the admission of the
coffee produced in that island to the
French markets at the minimum tariff
rate This was accomplished by q spe-
cial agreement made between Acting
Secretary Adee for the United States
and M. de Margerie, charge of the gov-
eminent of France here. This agree
ment in turn amends the commercial
arrangement of date May %, 1885, which
was the first drawn under the terms of
the reciprocity section of the Dingley
act. That arrangement applied only to
France and to the United States proper,
and the amendment just entered into
extends 1t on tie one side to Algeria
and on the other to the island of Porto
Rico as to the general feature of the
tariff schedules affected. while as to
Porto Rican coffee, it Is provided that
it shall enjoy the minimum French
tariff rate until February o. 1908. by
which date it is expected a further ex-
tension can be arranged.

came before the police court at the

cious attempt on the part of Mr. Urmy
to secure a conviction the court took

probably be dismissed. owing to the fact
that the prosecution failed to get any
evidence that the machine had been
played subsequent to the mayors Clos

fed to the presence of the machine in
Bates place, but they had never played
it. Several other slot machine cases will
