st. Peters Free of Debt.

st. Peters Methodist Episcopal
church, Riverside, is now free from
debt. The money to liquidate the
church's Indebtedness, over $3.50, was
all raised by the contributions receiv-
ed at the two special services held
Sunday.
The congregation of st. Peters has
been burdened with q debt of $3.50 ever
since the improvements were made on
the church property about four years
ago. Recently it was decided to enlist
the aid of Rev. r. III. Gilbert, ID. d..
presiding elder of the Danville dis
trict, in an effort to raise the neces-
sary funds to pay the debt.
DR.. Gilbert preached two sermons
at st. Peters on Sunday, as forceful
and as eloquent discourses as were
ever listened to in Riverside, and it
was largely due to Rev. Gilbert $ skill
full manner in handling the affair that
the outcome was so satisfactory.
The News has been requested to con
vey the thanks of the pastor and con
gregation of st. Peters to all who
contributed.

rlr. ShireS Seriously Injured.

Seized with an attack of vertigo
while painting the residence of ID. r.
Eckman, Market square, on Monday
forenoon, Michael Shires, the we'll
known painter, fell head long from a
ladder outside the building and sus-
tanned serious injuries.
The accident was no doubt due to
the heat and the peculiar atmospheric
conditions yesterday, which were very
exhaustive and debilitating in ef-
feet on almost every person. Mr.. Shires
was painting the west side of the
building and was standing on the lad
der some ten feet from the ground. He
exchanged remark with William
Chapman, another painter, who was
working on ladder a short distance
away. The next minute he went over
head first and limp and helpless struck
the ground between the Eckman house
and the residence of William Andy.
Mrs. Andy heard the thud as the body
struck the hard ground and ran out of
the house only to find Mr.. Shires ly-
ing at the foot of the ladder unable to
move.
The workmen employed about the
building in n moment were on the
spot. Mr.. Shires was picked up and
placed i'll an easy chair.
He fell squarely upon his head and
shoulders. With the exception of a few
cuts about the head he escaped extern
al injury, although he suffered severe
internal pains. DR.. p. O. Newbaker,
who responded to call, found upon a
casual examination that the right col
ed that there were internal injuries OF
serious nature.
1.-The injured man was driven to hi.
home at No. 230 Ash street in S. j.
Welliver's spring wagon which hap
pened to be passing at the time of the
accident. Before he was removed Mr.
Shires recovered sufficiently to explain
how he happened to fall. He said h'
was leaning forward painting thu
brick wall when all at once sensa
tion of dizziness came over him; h,
lost his hold and fell to the ground
He seemed very ill when he was re
moved to his home.

Third Conference With No Results

The third judicial conference was
held in the court house at Bloomsbury
yesterday afternoon and again the re-
suit was the same-two for Herring
and two for Harman-and no nomina-
tion.
The same conferees attended the
meeting, Vincent and Hoffman, of this
city, for Herring and keller and
Small, of Bloomsbury, for Harman.
Five ballots were taken but no change
in the situation developed.
The time for the next conference,
which will be held in Danville, was
set for August 23rd. By that time
some agreement will be reached or else
both candidates will take out nomina-
tion papers and three cornered fight
will be the result.
There are rumors afloat of a COM
promise between Messrs Herring and
Harman. Credit is lent to the report
ed agreement between the candidates
by the fact that Mr.. Harman met Mr..
Herring by appointment at the latter's
home in bloomsbury Tuesday evening.
Although nothing that passed at the
meeting was given out for publication,
the mere fact of the candidates being
in private consultation indicates clear
ly that better understanding exists
between the two men.
