Col, Budlong Asked Reconsideration
Col, D. H. Budlong, register of
the U. S. land office at Occur d'
Alene, was among the elders in at
tendance at the Presby terry here
this week. The Colonel was a pas
senger on the wrecked train but
escaped without injury. The Pres
bytery elected him a commissioner
to the General Assembly which
meets in New York, but Mr.. Bud
long later asked that the action be
reconsidered, stating that as the
General Assembly met in May, in
stead of June as he had supposed
at the time the selection was made,
it would be impossible for him to
attend, as he thought it probable
that his successor in the land office
would be ready to qualify sometime
during that month, which would
necessitate his being at his post to
turn over the office. Elder A. D..
Robinson of Spokane was then
elected in his place.

at the Methodist church on account of
the large in-gathering and because Of
the deep spiritual interest manifested
in the services. There was baptized
Anna Belle and Irene Victoria Dutch

Mary E. Hubbell was received by GER
titicate from St Johns (Episcopal)
church. This is the largest increase
for one day the records of the church
show for many years. The Methodist
people were naturally jubilant about
it. The secret of the success as re-
lated by a member was: "Inspiring
leadership, and the fact that there
wasn't grumbler at the present time
in the congregation, all working to-
gether."
Since W. H. Hartwell was elected
chorister at the Methodist church the
choir has doubled in numbers and
quadrupled in deficiency.

his classical poems, nature poems and
miscellaneous poems, the most volumi-

also been known for 30 years as the
