Bishop Dudiey's Nephew. DR.. Powers. Quits
the American Church Missionary Society
by ReQuest-E. N. Camp Put In
His Piace-No Explanation 10 Given.
The Rev. DR.. W. Dudley Powers, a nephew
OF Bishop Thomas U. Dudley of Kentucky.
has resigned his post as general secretary
Of the American Church Missionary Society
Of the Episcopal Church, whose particular
field is missions in Brazil and Cuba DR..
Powers has been secretary since 1895, and
has been looking forward to the establish
ment OF a church in Cuba for the care of
Cuban orphans
Eugene M Camp. proprietor Of local
church news bureau, has been elected to
the place made vacant through the
resignation Of DR.. Powers.
1t is generally believed that the resigna-
ton Of Dr. Powers was enforced. At the
regular monthly meeting of the executive
committee on June after the routine bust
ness had been disposed OF, DR.. Powers was
asked to retire to another room Thinking
that his salary was to be discussed he re-
tired and waited a considerable time. After
the committee had djouned the recording
secretary went to Dr. Powers and pre-
sented to him this resolution:
Resotred. That. in the view of the execu-
tive committee the best interest OF the
ciety demands the resignation OF the, general
he shall have a pledge that his salary shall
be paid to him until the end OF the fiscal
year, and II he declines to resign then that
his resignation be requested.
DR.. Powers was somewhat surprised
at this action. He wrote to members of
the executive committee stating that as
no charges had been preferred against
him he considered their action peremptory
and to uphold his own reputation he asked
the committee to show cause why he should
be forced to resign.
At a meeting held week later DR.. Powers
rendered his resignation and it was unani-
mously accepted, Mr. Camp being unani-
mously elected in his place.
Regarding the resignation the Rev.
A. B. Kinsolving, one OF the committee,
said:
-Dr. Powers is very good man. Since
he took hold as secretary he has put the
society In a prosperous condition. He is
an energetic worker and I do not believe
that there was any i'll feeling against him.
DR.. Powers rendered his resignation and
1t was unanimously adopted. There was
no dispute over his resigning. and when
the action was taken 1t was before full
board. We intend to elect two secretaries
to succeed DR.. Powers, but the second
man has not yet been decided on

HOW HE MADE HIS WAY.

We came across a young man twen-
ty-five years of age the other day
whose story is worth telling. He was
a Swede and came to this country only
seven years ago with no money or
friends and only limited education
such as he could get in the common
schools of his native country. Upon
arriving in Chicago he secured employ
ment with a big manufacturing con-
Germ as q common laborer. When we
met him the other day he was filling
the important position Of a travelling
superintendent for the company and
drawing a salary Of $1,000 year and
his expenses. How did he do it? Well,
the presumption is that he attended
strictly to his employers business, did
his level best and made himself indis-
pensable to them. That's the way in
which the boys climb up. We know
another young fellow, who had far bet
ter advantages. who in seven years has
learned nothing but how to play pool
and poker and Is not worth shucks and
never will be. You can take your
choice, boys. -. 1..l su- l:-.,.

WHAT THE BLACK MAN NEEDS.

During q recent trip south we had a
fine chance to look over several of the
southern cities during trolley rides
In all these cities there was the negro
section where the colored brother live$
and propagates The homes of these
people were generally of very primis
tive character. and one thing we spes
cially noted-while the white men of
the towns had their gardens made and
all sorts of garden stuff up and look
ing fine it was rare to find that the
colored man had made any attempt at
gardening at all. the yard of his lot be-
ing bare of vegetation and wholly un-
inviting A world of good could be
done by instructing these people along
this line how to care for the soil and
use it to help them to live. Wherever
we came across the home of foreign
era German, Scandinavian or English
man-he had not only vegetables, but
all kinds of fruits and flowers in his
garden. no matter how humble his
home might be. When the colored man
learns how to use the soil and the eli
mate of the south as he may and
should. the question of his place in So
ciety will be largely solved.

His Last HOPE Realized.

From the Sentinel, Gebo. Mont }
In the first opening of Oklahoma
to settlers in 1899, the editor OF this
paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During his
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim, he en-
countered much bad water, which, to-
gether with the severe heat, gave
him very severe diarrhoea which it
seemed almost impossible to check,
and along in June the case became so
bad he expected to die. One day one
of his neIghbors brought him one
small bottle of Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as p
last hope A big dose was given him
while he was rolling about on the
ground in great agony, and in few
minutes the dose was repeated. The
good effect of the medicine was soon
noticed and within an hour the
patient was taking his first sound sleep
for a fortnight. That one little bottle
worked complete cure, and he cam
not help but feel grateful. The season
for bowel disorders being at hand sug-
gests this item. For sale by N. n.

THE END OF THE GAME.

The boom in northwestern farm lands
has fiattened out. Good thing. The
whole country was getting lousy with
real estate agents; land gamblers were
at every corner and crossroads; steady
old grangers were losing their heads
and going to get rich in six months
buying range lands to sell to suckers
for farms. The fellows who unloaded
last year are all right; those who went
into the game then are left. Hundreds
Of old grangers in the west who sought
investment for the first surplus they
had ever had have now got 1t perma-
nently invested and can commence
again to scrimp and work hard on the
old farm to pay off the mortgage which
they put on it to buy cheap lands. The
land agents are on the road this season
selling books, lightning rods and stock
foods. still working the farmer, but on
other lines.

FARMERS EXEMPT.

Amid all the economic strife of the
day-labor strikes here, there. every
where. disturbing business and max.
ing the employer of labor wish he was
dead, the farmer has so far fortunate
ly been exempt, and. while. obedient to
the law Of supply and demand. he has
been forced to largely increase the
wages paid his help, he still has not
been held up by the men he employs
and made to suffer the losses which
even temporary suspension Of farm
work would entail The rate Of wages
now paid for farm help Is very lib
eral, and 1t is becoming a serious mat
ter with not few men how to use
such high priced labor to advantage.
More and more is the man on the farm
studying how to make machine and
horsefiesh do the work Of the man, and
1t is the only thing he can do.

FALL DAYS THE BEST.

Referring to climatic conditions, peo-
pie differ as to which season of the
year brings the most enjoyable and the
best days. For us there is always a
red letter day in the spring of the year
when we realize that the hard winter
is gone, a day when the sun shines and
the south wind blows and the grass
and the woods are greening up and
great hocks of wild fowl are headed
for their summer home in the far north,
a day when we just like to curl up on
the sunny side of an old straw pile
down by the woods and watch the mi
gratory birds, the fleecy clouds, hear
the distant cackle of the farm fowl, the
rat-tat-tat of a flicker on a dry limb
and the chicaree of a red squirrel and
lie there in a dreamy. lazy way, forget
work and business and let the old
world just flicker. Ever done it? Then
there is often another good day in
June following a season of great heat
and storm, when the wind from the
northwest comes to one fresh and tonic
as q sea breeze to q fevered patient,
when nature is doing a weeks work in
a day in forcing vegetation and he
whose work is with the soil then begins
to see the embryo harvest and the re-
ward for his toll. But better than Ell
Their are those late September days, the
harvest time, when the stress and
nervous energy Of nature wanes, when
grains and fruits are ripe and the fast
mail train slows down for the station
at the end of it's run, when prairie
chicken and black bass get on the bill
of fare and the Wealthy apple trees are
bending to the ground with their load
Of red checked lusciousness and pur-
pling grapes are peeping from their
leafy shade There may be lots of
work to do just then, but we always
just like to fool day or so away
about then and enjoy the delightful
environment, for there are some things
which are worth more than money and
which money can't buy, and this is one
of them. OF what value are dividends,
fame, business, politics, compared with
enjoying the full measure of such a
September day?

HUMUS IN SOILS.

When soil becomes deficient in hui
mus 1t will become sticky in wet
time and baked in Jumps in dry
time and is thus hard to get in what is
termed good tilth-mellow, workable
and in that condition where the plant
food 1t contains is available for the
crop. The roots Of the grasses restore
this humus; so will the decaying leaves
of trees If the land is planted with
timber, or green crops may be plowed
under or the land well fortified with
stable manure. Clover does fine work
in this line, and If a good growth of
clover is plowed under it will be one
Of the cheapest and very best ways of
remedying this lack of humus in the
soil

EATING AND CIVILIZATION.

What man eats and the manner in
which he cooks his food and eats 1t de-
termine very largely the grade of civil
lization which he enjoys. 1t is a far
stretch from the Eskimo sitting on an
ice foe eating his meal of raw walrus
blubber or the Sioux Indian pulling out
chunks of boiled dog from the camp
kettle in front of his tepee to five dol
lar dinner at modern restaurant or
my lady's seven course supper at the
tony society function. In his purely
barbarian stage man was an eater of
uncooked food, raw meats and grains
and roots just as they were gathered
eating just as do the animals-the lion.
the wolf, the monkey. AS he developed
he used fire to prepare his food, finding
1t thus more palatable and appetiZing,
and little by little as he advanced in
civilization he greatly enlarged his bill
of fare and a more general use Of fire
in the preparation OF his food. Then
came knives, forks and spoons in place
Of fingers, then platters and dishes and
some sort of decency and order in the
serving of his food until today the sci
ence of cookery and the serving of food
have become one of the fine arts, and in
all civilized society the last trace of the
barbarian and savage has been or
should be wholly eliminated. Watch a
man eat, and it is easy to Judge wheth-
er he is refined and well bred or not.
The habit of eating is formed at the
home table, and parents have an i'm
portant duty in the matter of training
their children at the table. 1t is impos-
sible for one to eat at home in crude,
uncouth manner and be able to conform
to social requirements when away from
home.

THE WEST INDEPENDENT.

Ten years ago the west was largely
dependent upon the east for the capital
needed for moving and handling crops,
for farm loans and the financing of
all municipal nterprises-waterwor
electric light plants, school buildings
and the like. This condition no longer
exists. The west now has it's own
money and no small surplus besides
what is needed for the purposes men,

six years. Seven cent beef and pork

CONCERNING ALFALFA.

The following conclusions have been
arrived at as a result of a series Of ex-
periments with alfalfa at the Minneso-
Ia experiment station:
First.-A variety of alfalfa has been
grown in Minnesota for forty years
and has proved to be perfectly hardy
wherever tried.
SecOnd.-Alfalfa produced in Mime
sofa contains more protein than red
clover and has a greater feeding value
than wheat bran.
Third.-Alfalfa hay contains large
amounts of the most valuable fertiliz-
ing materials and when fed ON the
farm the fertility of the soil is In
creased.

THE PIGS IN THE BEDROOM.

A friend Of ours had only been mar

to save their lives, owing to the bitter
cold weather. to carry them into the
house and warm them up. While 80

friends drove up to make a call, and
the pigs were hustled from the kitchen

We made the discovery this spring,
in connection with a belated spell Of
winter coming the last Of April, that
the fruit buds Of the apple, cherry and
plum will endure at least II degrees of
frost, provided it comes before the
buds are open, and go through such an
ordeal without injury. Had the bloom
been fully opened such freezing would
have destroyed the fruit buds.
