THE FUNNEL-SHAPED TERROR.

MEETING OF PRESBYTERIANS.

One Hundred and Twelfth Annual As- . aembly Held in St. Louis. The Presbyterian general assembly, the lawmaking body of that church, began its one hundred and twelfth annual meeting Thursday at the Washington and Compton Avenue Presbyterian Church in St. Louis. Nearly 1,000 commissioners and delegates, representing all the Northern and Western States and territories, and many <rf those tn the South, with the synods of Central and South China, North China and India, were in attendance at the opening session. Among them were many eminent divines and prominent laymen. - a Washington and Compton Avenue Presbyterian Church, in which the main deliberations of the body were to be held, had been decorated and fitted with everything that would minister to the comfort and convenience of those in attendance. In the lecture room there was a Presbyterian book store, a postoffice, a telegraph station, telephone connections, writing tables and stationery. Matters of great Importance were stated for consideration during the gathering, and it was thought it would probaHy be two weeks before final adjournment. The Rev. Dr. Charles A. Dickey of Phlladeliiria was elected moderator. His principal competitors were Dr. McKibbin of Cincinnati and Dr. D. W. Fisher of Hanover College. The new Moderator to opposed to the revision of the creed, and his election is considered a victory for the conservatives. Dr. Dickey said he was inclined to regard the agitation as much ado about nothing, that the men who bob up here and there throughout the country with a tirade against the Westminster confession were seeking notoriety or else failed to comprehend the relation between that confession and the presbyterlan church. “The Westminster confession,” he said, “to now and always has been merely a system of doctrine and as such is subscribed to by every minister of the church when he takes his vows. There are many things in the confession of faith that are not subscribed to by ministers at the time of taking their vows and the various preehyteries have allowed great latitude of individual thought and ordained many men holding views apparently at variance with the logical significance of certain clauses, yet in perfect accord with the general doctrinal system It reveals.” The question of revision of the Weatmlnster confession to not a ne'w one. Eleven years ago certain doctrines of tie cretd, notably those concerning election and preterition, were thought too strong, end a committee was appointed to act an their revision, but in 1893 only sixty-seven out of 220 presbyteries appnved any amendments.

THE BOER PEACE ENVOYS.

Art in New York and Given • Formal Reception in Weak Ing ton. Thursday afternoon the Boer envoys were officially welcomed by Mayor Van Wyck of New York. The Mayor gave the envoys the freedom of the city, pre•ented to them copies of a resolution passed by the municipal assembly and Incidentally voiced the hope that it would be followed by the preservation of their freedom in their far-distant homes. The congressional and citizens’ committee which escorted the peace commissionera from New York to Washington installed Senators Allen, Mason, Heit'feld and Wellington, Representatives Sulzer, Ridgely, Rhea (Ky.), Clark (Mo.), Daly, Die Armond, Robinson (Neb.), Miers (Ind.) and Little and Messrs. 0. T. Bride and 8. S. Yoder. On their arrival in Washington the envoys were met by the reception committee and taken to the Arlington Hotel, where an Informal reception was given in their honor.

DEWEY GIVES UP CANDIDACY.

His Wife and He Agree that He Will Not Make tha Race. A Washington dispatch says that Mrs. Dewey has decided that the admiral shall not be a candidate for the presidency. She has arrived Bt thia decision after noting their reception on the recent swing around the country. The admiral is of like opinion. He has admitted to some of his friends that he does not understand how he ever came to get the idea that he would like to be President. In Germany 1,057,938 acres wore seeded to sugar beets last year. The yield was about eleven and a quarter tons to the acre, and the sngar results 12.7 per cent. Germany has found last year the most prosperous in her history, and her surplus over the estimates will be about $15,000,000. Ex-Senator Sherman contemplated a visit to ths Paris exposition, but on his physician's advice ke will spend the summer quietly at his old home in Manvfield, Ohia

BRITISH TAKE BOTHA.

Boer Commandant Surprised and Captured Near Kroonatad. It has been officially announced by the London War office that Gen. Methuen entered Hoopstad Thursday unopposed, that Gens.

surprised and captured Commandant Botha and twenty-three others thirty miles northwest of Kroonstad. There were no casualties on the British side. Gen. Buller entered Dannhauser Thursday morning. The houses in the town were found to be not much damaged, owing to the sympathies of the Boer inhabitants. The railway is little damaged. The Boers north of Newcastle are falling back on Amajuba. Gen. Buller received a message from the Queen congratulating him upon the taking of Dundee and expressing appreciation of the work of the troops.

RAILROADS

The Chicago and Alton has ordered twenty additional passenger cars. Net earnings of the Lake Shore for quarter ending March 31 wer? $2,591,225. Central Passenger Association lines an trying to regulate the half rate ticket evil. East bound shipment's from Chicago are falling off. Statement for last week shows a decrease of 28,743 tons over the week previous. Gross earnings of the Illinois Central system for the first week in May were $597,951, an increase of $85,644 over ths corresponding period of last year. The Peoria, Decatur and Evansville road, which was recently sold at Springfield, will probably pass to the IHinoia Central. It crosses the I. C. line six times.

A cleverly written little booklet regarding the fishing grounds df northern Wisconsin and Michigan has been issued by the passenger department of the Milwaukee and St. Paul company. By advice of the attorney a of the Southern Pacific and other Western roads which pooled to compel the Government to pay higher rates for transportation of soldiers than accorded theatrical and other parties, the scheme has been abandoned. The Union Pacific road owns more land than any other railway in the world. When Its line was run through the undeveloped lands of the West a right of way forty m'-lea in width was granted, which extended west from both Kansas City and Omaha almost to the Pacific coast. So great was the acreage given that today the road, having sold thousands of tracts, still owns and has for sale almost all the land along the line from Laramie to Green river on the main line, 272 mllee of land forty miles in width and 296 miles of equal width on the Kansas division. This means practically a fortymile (trip through the whole of Kanns, Nevada, Colorado, Wyoming and a part of Utah, an acreage of 8,000,000 acres. Sir William C. Van Horne’s scheme for developing Cuban railroads seems to have prospered amazingly. The Quban company has been organized under the laws of New Jersey with a capital stock of $8,000,000, and some of the best known American capitalists and railroad magnates are said to be interested in the movement. There is talk of the Canadian Pacific securing terminals at New Whatcom, Wash. The Illinois Central has appropriated $1,530,000 for additional equipment. Thirty MW locomotives are In the order.

Curiosity Saves Life.

A package marked quinine was sent to a woman, but being curious she took it to a druggist who said it was arsenic. A like inquiry into some of the medicines offered will certainly detect the false from the true. For half a century Hostetter’s Stomach Biters has been curing indigestion, constipation and dyspepsia.
