The RIGHT OF WAY.
Gilbert Parker's Riaht of Way
is still widely called for. 1t is
evident that every reader of fic.

it, just as one reads Scott, Dickens

permanent contributions to mod
ern fiction.

The London Spectator says OF
The kentons, by w. d. Howells:
America sends us many excel.

among them the novels of Mr..
Howells." To this text for an
enthusiastic review the London
Athenaeum adds: 1.-The Kentons
is one of Mr.. Howells' best nov.

Journal reporter. II sell few large
shoes to country dealers, but I find
that city women are wearing larger
sizes than ever before. That is be-
cause city women want their feet to

in the country buy short, broad

1t is probable that the Circuit Court will
hear large part of the evidence in the
Schafer liquor license remonstrance case
because of a new point that has just been
raised by the remOntrators. T. P. Kiser
who originated the blanket power of attor-
ney for remonstrances against saloons in
the Fourth ward, had canvassers to assist
in their circulation. and II is contended
that their having been signed on Sunday

LOWTHER CANNOT APPEAL.
Convicted Hereto Has DIsobeyed the
Rules OF the Methodist Church.


WICHITA. Kan. April 12-The Rev. DR..
Granville Lowther. who was convicted of
heresy at the recent session OF the South
west Kansas Conference of the Methodist
Church. and who has announced his de-
termination to appeal the case, cannot have
that privilege. according to the statement
OF the Rev. w. II. Rose. who was junior
counsel for the Rev. Mr. Lowther during
The Rev Mr.. Rose IS now stationed at
Mcpherson, where he is pastor OF the
church lately served by the depOsed min
lister. He says: Under the law OF the
church the Rev Mr.. LOwther has forfeited
his right 10 appeal by continuing TO preach
after he had been convicted and expelled
from the ministry. He IS stiu member OF
the Methodist Church and has no authority
&c preach or exercise ministerial functions"
The Rev. Mr.. Rose lad in mind the two
times that the convicted minister has
preached since the announcement OF the
verdict. The Sunday after the trial he
preached In the Methodist Church at Geuda
Springs. and last Sunday afternoon he
preached 10 a large congregation in the
Mcpherson Opera House.
Bishop Merrill. in his digest says: "a
member, referring 10 q member OF an an
nual conference. who has been convicted
may forfeit his right to appeal by absent
Ing himself from the trial and by such ia
grant misconduct after the trial would
necessitate his expulsion; by repeating the
things alleged against him in the former
trial; by cOntumacious treatment OF the
church and its authority. by concentrating
union with another church or otherwise
abandoning the Jurisdiction whose favor IS
sought In the appeal. The idea is held that
whoever would avail himself OF the right
of appeal must conduct himself so as to be

successful prosecution OF his appeal would
