register Of deeds in Bergen county.
He says in a statement announcing
his candidacy:
Il am candidate for this office,
which is to pay $500 a year, because
if elected l expect to convince the

SOMETHING ABOUT THE
HISTORY OF RIVER BRETHREN
story Of Their Origin and Accom-
pllshments.

Chambersburg, Pa, Herald; In
November, 1853, q number OF ram
lilies who were members of Mennon-
ite persuasion, settled in the south
western part of Lancaster county,
Pa, near the banks Of the Susque-
hanna river. Among their number
were John and Jacob Engle and 9TH
ers who had left their home, Upper
Switzerland, on account Of religious
persecution. Two years later revival
efforts were made I'm the western
part Of Lancaster county and con-
Quoted principally by otterbein,
Boehm, Bockran, the Engles and
others. These laborers, formerly rep
resented the Lutheran, Mennonite
and Anabaptist faiths, but were led
into a deeper work on account OF the
cold Journalism that seemed to pre-
vail the Christian fraternity at that
time. Their labors were abundantly
blessed and many accepted Christ as
their personal Savior, but when 1t
came to the question Of baptism some
commended that the applicant should
make choice of the matter; others
commended that true immersion was a
proper method for a qualified appli-
cant, hence the laborers agreed to
work independently according as they
understood the Scripture.
And it became necessary to have
some one to offlciate in ministerial
duties lot fell on Jacob Engle, who
became the first minister Of the
Brotherhood, and with co-laborers
John, Engle, John Gish, join
stern and others, effected an organi
zatIon but they had selected no nam'
for themselves. The work spread
inland in different directions and
those living at distance from wher'
the Brotherhood took Its first activ'
form, referred to the originators a

During the Civil war of 1ss1"e5.

During the Civil war Of 1S61"65,
while the government took drastic
measures to raise an army to cope
with the rebellion, some OF the mem
bers of the Brotherhood having been
drafted for service and who proclaim
ed their non-resistant faith, 1t be-
came necessary forthe Brotherhood
to 90 on record with the National
government at Washington as a non
resistant religious organization and
at a formal council held in the city
of Lancaster, it was decided to have
the name of the Brotherhood record
ed as a nonresident religious or
ganization-as Brethren in Christ,
formerly known as River Brethren.
While Lancaster county still Is the
stronghold of the Brotherhood, yet
the organization has spread to other
dounties AS wal as Canada, New
York state, Ohio, Indiana, illinois,
Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Calltoini1
and other states and foreign coun-
tries.

Liverpool, Oct. 8.-There was a quiet
opening in wheat with values un-
changed to Il penny lower. The COM
paratively steadiness in America was
offset by expectation OF liberal worlds
shipments and larger American ship
ments, as shown by BTadstreets. Fol-
lowing the opening the market de-
veloped pronounced heaviness with the
principal pressure in March and there
was free realizing by recent pur-
chasers. The pressure in the near
month was attributed to a quiet de-
mand and larger arrivals continued
liberal tenders on advance during the
week and the result weakness there
yesterday Together with a private
cable of more favorable outlook there
and additional advances to our house
of unsettled weather in the south Ar
gentine with some rain led to in
creasing offers of plate wheat. At the
close the market was heavy and q
lower than yesterday.
Corn: Corn was quiet at the start
and unchanged. Later pressure de-
veIoped on the weakness in wheat and

JOHNSON TO PRESIDE
Jurist From Red Wing Will sit For

Letters received by local attorneys
from Judge Taylor of this judicial dis
trict state that he has arranged with
Judge Alfred johnson of Red Wing ia
preside at the term of the Clay coun-
ty district court which will be con-
vened with grand and petty iuries on
Monday, Oct. II. Judge Baxter. the
retiring judge of this district, is not
doing any work on circuit, simply con-
timing himself to such cases which are
taken before him in his chambers at
Fergus Falls. Judge Taylor is ex-
ceedingly busy in the eastern part of
the district and he says if he had been
unable to secure the services of Judge
Johnson the Clay county term would
have had to be postponed and that
was not desired.
The civil calendar for the coming
term Is rather heavy and in addition
there will be considerable business

Chicago, Oct. s.-There was rather

Minneapolis said that there was lit

opening lower, in sympathy with the
decline in Liverpool, later became
steady with no pressure and towards
the end of the session had rally on

season of crop scares in the Argentine,
