TWO BISHOPS DIFFER.
Hartxell and Walden on Doubling Up
of Mission Work in south.

Oh htss1On WOrk In SOutn
ALBANY, n. Y, Nov. 17.-At the ses-
sion of the general missionary conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church here
to-day spirited debate took place on the
question of increasing the amount to be
devoted to missionary work in the South.
1t was suggested that II would be advsa-
BILE to spend the money in quarters where
the Methodist Episcopal Church South was
not engaged. Bishop Hartzell resented
this. saying: 1T is proposed to force us
out of the South, while Providence in its
own good time may bring US together with
our Southern brethren L don't see that IL
is necessary to anticipate Providence"
THANK God, the bloody shirt doesn't
wave any longer, said Bishop Walden.
There is no necessity of this doubling up
on missionary work. We have two theo-
logical schools near the City of Mexico
where only one is needed. When you come
to talk of Providence, it should be our bus-
ness to cultivate the preliminary condi-
tions necessary to union of the churches,
so as to be ready for the possible work of
Providence"

''The significant fact brought out by the

done by Bryan is that in the two districts

most notable galnS-ln tne rlsl anu oeS-

district, which has always been Demo

State ticket by over 1,10O votes, and yet
at the same time Representative Robin

for this discrepancy is that Robinson has
always been regarded as a free silver man

Says Birds Shipped by Teddy Roose-

Captured in 1901.

What has become of the chickens
and ducks shot by T. Roosevelt Jr.
and his party in South Dakota? Neil
Finch says the birds captured at De-
troit were not of those shot by the
Roosevelt party.
1.-THE inference may have been
plain" said Mr.. Finch, who guided T.
Roosevelt Jr. into the wilds during his
recent hunting trip, "but really the
presidents son had nothing to do with
those birds that were seized at De-
troit."
You see," said Game Agent Fuller
ton, ''this game was seized at Detroit
a year ago."
Mr.. Fullerton went on to explain
that the capture of eighteen birds in
Detroit by federal officers really took
place Sept. 20, 1901, and that it had
only just come to his notice.

MILKMAN'S STIPEND rs
CURTAILED BY COURT
Judge Kelly Holds That $2,250 Year
Is Enough for Stock
man.

Judge Kelly yesterday ordered that
the verdict of $4,026.44 given by a jury
before him in June in the suit Of Err
nest r. Van Heyne against Thomas 5.
Tompkins, proprietor of the South Side
stock farm in this county, be reduced
to $2,026.44.
The plaintiff was employed in 1900
by the defendant, and was to receive
$25 per month and one-half the net
profits of the farm. The testimony
showed that he was very successful,
but in February, 1902, the defendant
assumed to discharge him, and he
brought the action to recover for his
services during the period Of his en-
ployment.
Judge Kelly refused to grant the
defendants motion for judgment in his
favor, Notwithstanding the verdict.
The amount Of the verdict, however,
the judge regards as excessive.
"The jury" he says. valued the
plaintiffs services at $4,000 for one and
one third years, or $3.50 per year, and
found verdict by deducting $973.56
advances from the principal sum. In
my opinion, $2,25O year, or $4,000,
for the term of actual service, is a
just compensation, and sustained by
the evidence"

Work Long Delayed.
Nearly a year ago the Omaha COM
pany started the work of building to
the stock yards, but owing to some
unexplained difference was halted at
the south approach Of the Wabasha

the Great Western road shunted
string of dilapidated empty freight

OCTOBER WEATHER is
NOT TO BE FEARED
Records Of Past Thirty one Years Show
Temperature Cool, But Not
Intense.

II the temperature for October is nor
NAL this year, there will be need for fire
during most of the month, in spite of the
fact that Indian summer will help reduce
the profits of the cSai trust For the past
thirty-one years. according to the records
of the st. Paul weather bureau, the mean
temperature for the tenth month has been
forty eight degrees, while the average for
the warmest October, 1879, was only fifty
seven.
Although fire is needed throughout
the month October weather Is never very
severe In 1873 the mercury did drop to
80 degrees, but this was the lowest ever
reached. The year Of 1887 was rather
cold, with mean temperature Of AZ.
In 1896, on the 18th of the month. a
record of 96 degrees was established, but
this was extraordinary.
The rains in October are never abund-
ant, the average precipitation for the
thirty-one years being 2.26 inches. How
ever, in 1881, ten inches Of rain fell. The
following year there was almost a
drought and the PRECIPITATION was only 1T

SMOKE ORDINANCE is
HAVING ANOTHER TEST
Locomotive Engineers Go Before Fine
hout on Charges of Operat-
ing Nuisances.

Charges of violating the smoke ordi-
nance stood on the police court docket
yesterday afternoon against Thomas
Dugan, a Northern Pacific railway en-
gineer, and William Lewis, J. A. Scan
len, Thomas Pauline and L. Murray,
engineers of the Omaha road. BY con-
sent Of counsel the charge against
Lewis was made test case, and Judge
Finehout spent a good part of the aft
ernoon in hearing evidence and argu-
ment on the issues involved.
City Prosecutor Herbert Keller put
in evidence a number of photographs
showing dense smoke pouring from the
switch engine operated by the defend
ant. Pierce Butler and L. T. Chamber
lain, for the defendant, introduced
testimony of experts tending to show
that it was impossible to operate the
locomotives on the heavy grades in
different parts Of the city without their
emitting smoke.
On cross-examination Mr. Keller
drew admissions from the defendants
witnesses that by reducing the loads
drawn by the locomotives the volume
of smoke might be materially lessened.
At the conclusion of the testimony,
Mr.. Butler moved for the dismissal of
the complaint. He based his motion
chiefly on the decision Of Judge Orr
last year, that a fireman could not be
held liable under the ordinance for
the nuisance caused by the smoke
from the locomotive on which he was
employed. The court, counsel argued,
could not hold an engineer criminal
ly liable for permitting his fireman
to do what the court had already de-
clared the fireman might do with i'm
punity.
In reply the city prosecutor contend
ed that if the ordinance means any
thing at all, it makes the engineer
liable for permitting his locomotive to
become a nuisance. He quoted the or
dinance under which the prosecution
was brought, and which reads as fol-
lows:
mo owner of a boat or locomotive
engine, or person employed as eng1-
neer or otherwise, shall permit the
emission Of dense smoke.
Judge Finehout took the case under
advisement,- promising to render de-
cision this morning.
