New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, May 25.-A fierce duel between
rivals for a. girls love, with a club and a
pitchfork IS weapons, was only ended
when J.. H. Wicker, a hostler. received a
mortal wound in the abdomen from the
sharp pronged weapon welded by Henry
Lamb. Attic Lamb escaped, he was SO
badly beaten as scarcely to be able to
drag himself from the scene Of the COM
bat.
The fight took place in the stable Of
vicker's employer, at 16 Sangamon street,
where Wicker was accosted by Lamb. Ac-
cording to Vicker's story, told before he
lost consciousness at the county hospital,
Lamb accused him OF having paid at
tention to his sweetheart at a dance the
previous evening. Wicker ordered Lamb to
leave the barn and Lamb seized a club
and felled the hostler.
Wicker regained his feet and wrested
the club from his assistant, and Lamb
thereupon seized a, pitchfork lying on the
stable floor and resumed the battle. For
some time the two men parted desperate
~, Wicker raining blows on his opponents
head and shoulders. and Lamb striving tc
impail the hostler on the pitchfork The
duel ended when Lamb, so weak from the
punishment he had received as scarcely tc
| be able to stand, succeeded in thrustins
the pitchfork into his rivals body.

r1EAI TIME CONSCIENCE.
What DO the Children DRINK

There are times when mother or father
feeds the youngsters something that they
know children should not have. Perhaps
1T is some rich dessert but more often it
is tea or coffee. Some compromise by put
ting in SO much hot water that there Is
not much tea or coffee left but even that
little is pretty certain to do harm. It
leads to bigger doeses Then come the cof-
fee ills.
It is better to have some delicious, hot,
food drink that you can take yourself
and feed to your children conscious that it
will help and strengthen and never hurt
them. A lady of Oneida, NJ T., says: IT
used coffee many years in spite of the con-
viction that it injured my nervous system
and produced my nervous headaches.

tun1 but it was not well made. still de-
ternined to get package and try 1t my
self and after following directions care
fully the result was all that could be de-
sired; delicious, finely Favored, richly
colored beverage. Since ] quit coffee
Postum has worked wonders for me.
my husband who always suffered from
kidney trouble when drinking coffee quit
the coffee and took up Postum with me
and since drinking Postum he has felt
stronger and better with no Indication Of
kidney trouble.
You may be sure I find it great COM
fort to have warm drink at meals that
I can give my children with a clear con
science that it will help them and not hurt
them as coffee or tea would Name fur

ATTACKED AN EVANGELIST
Heated Discussion in a Methodist
Church District Ministerial
Meeting at Winnipeg.
snacial to The Journal.

Special to Tho Journal.
winnipeg, Man, May 25.-one Of the
most momentous discussions started In
the Methodist church took place at the
annual district meeting here. It arose
from Rev. Ely Taylor of Dominion City
saying he intended to hold a camp meet
ing there and ask the celebrated American
evangelist, Rev. Mr.. Dempster to speak
for him.
Minister after minister expressed an
opinion unfavorable to Dempster and dep
recated the emotional nature Of his meth.
DDS and the extravaganza of his lam
guage. What is the use, they said, OF
such statements as that "the holy spirit
has left the Roman Catholic church, the
holy spirit has left the Lutheran church,
the holy spirit has left the Salvation army
and the holy spirit is leaving the Meth
odist church," Are such sweeping as
sertions justihable or sound Methodism
Rev. Fl. Kenner said he had seen the
evils of such work. A person had told
him that he was for nine years a minister
of the Methodist church, but he was I'M
converted until he attended Mr.. Demp-
ster's meetings.
.eWhat are we to think Of such state
ment?' said Kenner. A noteworthy scene
followed. Ministers rose and expressed
their disgust and many were speaking al
once. Finally Rev Mr.. Taylor explained
the incident to which Rev. Mr.. Kennel
had referred and boldly confessed thai
altho for nine years he had been In the
ministry, yet he had never felt satisfied
until he heard Rev. Mr.. Dempster preach
a sermon. in which he explained thatssa
man who was born again was without
sin. He told. Dempster then he was un-
converted (cries OF dissent), for he was
conscious of sin. Since then thru the
grace Of God and the explanation and eff
forts of Mr.. Denapster he had attained
| full sanctihcation.

St. Petersburg, May 25.-while # ;s
not intended to imply that the govern
ment's Jewish policy aims at stinulati ting
Jewish emigration, observers expect that
that will be the result Of it. It is note
worthy that n. Kronshevan, the editor
OF the Bessaraytz, the anti-Semitic paper
OF kischinef, writing after the massacre,
oratorically addressed the Jews in an ar
ticle in this way:
Become Christians and our brothers
and enjoy all the privileges Of Russian
citizenship II not, you have one year
to go where you please. After that term
has expired there must not remain q. single
Jew IN Russia unless he is Christianized
and thereafter entrance to Russia will be
forbidden to the Jews forever"

Philadelphia, May 25.-Resolutions have
been adopted by the Jewish Publication
society Of America deploring the Kishinef
massacre, requesting President Roosevelt
to use his good offices in preventing its

regard to creed. The resolutions will be
forwarded to President Roosevelt, the sec

The Great Northern passenger train
stood at Dalton from s:45 p. M, until II
o'clock this morning, when it proceeded

it now stands. The morning train from

At Dalton occurred a storm of hail

had lost sevens cows which were killed

been done. AS it was many windows

The story is confirmed by Rev. F. e.

BUMPED into HAIL
The Kansas City Limited on Omaha
Road Bombarded by
Flying Ice.
All the Windows on One Side
Of the Train Were
Shattered.

The Kansas iCty limited train No. T. on
the Omaha road, arrived in Minneapolis
late night, after having passed thru a
remarkable experience. One side of the
train, from engine pilot to the tail light
was a sight to behold, while the opposite
side was as bright and clean as a new
dollar.
While running between seney and
Alton, two points on the Omaha line, and
thirty-five miles northeast of Sioux City,
the engineer of the train noticed pc
culiar storm approaching. It appeared to
be limited in extent and, thinking that he
might cross its path before 1t broke, ne
crowded on extra steam.
Fl. But the storm beat him out. II
swooped upon the train with terrifying
f1erceness.
The storm was not wind storm, but a
storm OF ice, chunks weighing in some
instances six and eight ounces. Almost
every pane OF glass on the unprotected
side of the train was smashed. The
headlight, the windows In the cab, the
plate glass windows in the wide vest1-
bules, the dead lights in the roofs OF the
coaches and the windows were all taken
out, and with a violence which terrified
the passengers. Accompanying the ice
were great quantities OF water.
There was rush for the other side OF
the train, and the cooler ones pulled down
the cloth curtains ana the Dllnu 20 heei'
out the gathering fusilade.
The force OF the ice was so great that
the exposed side OF the train was pitted
| with dents. The wood work looked as If
it had been hammered with a round head
ed riveting hammer.
! The engineer held to his post, altho he
| was on the exposed side of the train. He
! knew there was a deep cut a few miles
off and he drove the train to the limit OF
speed towards it in order to gain the pro-
| lection Of the high, sloping sides. The
storm, however, followed him the entire
distance Once in the cut the train was
stopped and relief was found.
| AS soon ais the hail ceased and it be-
came safe to go out, the train crew took
an inventory Of the damage. With the
| exception Of few slight cuts from flying
/ glass. no one was hurt. The train crew
| found the coaches and the seats covered
| with fragments which were swept upr
with difficulty To-day the train was
hauled to the shops Of the company a,
Hudson.
One remarkable fact concerning the
ice storm was its limited area. It was
purely local in character, and was les:
than ten miles in width.

The latter explanation is accepted by
