The Earth to Be Like the Moon.

The water of the earth is all destined
to disappear from the surface of the
globe by being absorbed by subterrane-
an rocks, with which it will form chem
icalcombinations. The heavenly spheres
exhibit sufficiently striking examples OF
such an evolution. The planet Mars
shows what will become of the earth
In some thousands of centuries Its
seas are only shallow Mediterraneans
OF less surface than the continents, and
these do not appear to be very high
and in the appearance of the moon, all
cracked and dried up, we have view
OF the final state of the earth, for the
absorption of the water by the solid
nucleus will be followed by that of the
atmosphere.

The First Dodge City Meshodlsts.

Mrs p. g. Reynolds, who is still
enjoying good health, and who is a
pioneer In Christian work in Dodge
City, sends us an account of the or
ganization of the NJ E. church and
Ladies' Aid Society in Dodge City
The first proceedings we're had on the
14th day of June, 1874. The house
referred to Is one block north of the
Christian church.
The article is as follows:
ssThe house formerly occupied by
Mrs. Phillips, and at present the res
idence of p. G. Reynolds, must Ger
tainly be considered the cradle of
Methodism in Dodge City. It was
there on the 18th of June, 1874, the
first Methodist society, and indeed,
the first religious society, ever organ
lied in Dodge City, and at the same
place, last Thursday, (Nov. IA, 1879
the ladies of the II. E. church met
and organized Ladies' Aid Society
The attendance was large and enthus--
iastic, and it added not little to the
interest of the occasion to find two
of the members of the original Soci-
ety-Mrs. Conwell and Mrs Phillips
present. It was found on canvass
ing the matter that there were six
teen ladies of the NJ. E. pursuasion
in Dodge City, and that there would
be no difficulty in maintaining so-
ciety of such proportions in good
working order.
@'The following organization was
effected:
President-Mrs- P. G. Reynolds
Secretary-Mrs. Phillips.
Treasurer-Mrs. Couwell
CA committee consisting of the of
ficers of the Society, and the pastor,
Rev. Adam Holm, was appointed to
draw up constitution and bylaws
The next place Of meeting will be the
residence of Mrs. Conwell

success now, since the ladies have
taken hold of it,

IMPORTANT POSTAL RULING.

The Postoffice Officials at Washington
have just ruled that Il subscription to any
publication entered as second class mat
ter must be discontinued when the time
for which it is paid in advance has cx-
pired.
This order is wholly in The interest of
substantial and meritorious publications.
and is directed against those spurious
concerns which care nothing about their
subscriptions, but rely for their profits
on fake advertising. The country week
lies which permit their subscribers to
s'take the paper very often for years
without settlement, may have misgiy-
ings about tile new ruling, but it cannot
hurt them Those papers which es-
tablished and are worthy of patronage
Will continue to hold their supporters and
it will be better for the subscribers to
keep paid up. Persons who have been
accustomed taking their county papers
will not quit and publishers will speedily
realize the benefits of prompter pay
mentS.
The mail service is Numbered up with
a vast amount of second class matter
which makes large demand on its ia
cilities, and the order just issued by the
Posfoffice department will help the situa-
ton quite appreciably. = Kansas City
