John Smith on the shores of Virginia. The occasion was more or loss observed by the Smith family throujjhcut the United States. Mary Kllcn lvnse has tiled a petition in bankruptcy. The inference is that new womanism is not yet HtiHieiently jiopnlar in this country to lx madt profitable-. The iictitioii was filed in New York, where M s. Incase now resides. Mr. hcaw lives in Kansas, the home of hen -pecked husbands. There has been a el deal of speculation as to the ctTeet of the unseasonable weather on the fruit crop. In some localities the yount' fruit is dropping otT considerably. Uut, fmm all apH-aran;es, there is still plenty left. Sfieakin on this subject Sylvester Johnson of Irving ton says: ''I do not entertain nearly the fear of severe damage to the fruii crop that many seem to have It is triK: the weather during the past two months has not 1hcu favorable to a natural and seasonable develop ment of the jjrowinej fruit. 1 am of the opinion, however, the worst result will jerhaps be a late jierfection of the fruit. .A s a uiitter of fact there have not Iwen any very recent frosts, and this, i take it, has te due to the fact that with almost every sudden recurrence of cold weather it has invariably been cloudy. I think the worst toexjiect will l late crops of early e;iches, I eople wlio have tlie impression that this country's present prosperi ty is solely due to recent larje crops are probably not aware that las year's wheat crop was not nearly as larev as that of lS'll, and that in eluding the other grains corn, oats rye. Uirley and buckwheat - the yicli was still smaller for 1W0 than fo the year named. Even takine; tin nirures lor as late as is:.i, over 0 which I'.Nio showed an increase fo wheat, the total out put for the latt year was the smaller by 4;5,bi'.'.IUM bushels. These facts show plainly that ootl government has a ejreat deal to do with our present prosper ous conditions and that the only surt way to continue this proscrity is to continue Kepublican rule in this country. Our present splendid croj prosects would lx of but little aval perpetuate fooil times if we wen threatened with Democratic accend eney in the immediate future. Rings Disappeared.

Utah, May 27. The preslden tial train traversed tue state of Nevada Sunday and reached Ogden at 0:30 o'clock last night. The route lay along the Humboldt river, through the Kuhy and Wasatch mountains and then decaided into the Salt Ike basin. During most of the day the elevation exceeded 5.U00 feet and snowclad peaks were continually Ln sight from the car windows. At this season of the year the ride across Nevada is exceedingly disagreeable. The heat is oppressive and the dust from the desert is frequently blinding, j Fortunately for Mrs. McKinley one of those heavy rainstorms which so rarely visit this region swept completely over the state Saturday night, laying the dust and tempering the atmosphere. It rained also several times during theday. The weather seemed almost likt a special intervention of Provideno for the benefit of the gentle sufferer Kr. iTtKinlejr phased a comforUbk

trsp Sunday was looked forward to some apprehension. The rain. riili however, relieved the anxiety, and Ir. Uixey reported that Mrs. MfKinlej was standing the trip very welL She suffered no inconvenience from the rarlfied atmosphere STILL. DISCCSSIXS IT Presbyterians Continue Cncertai Itejcardint; Creed Urr ioi. Philadelphia. May 27. The debate on the revision of the confession, o faith, which took up the whole of three days last week, was resumed this morning, and it is Ivlieved some definite action will have been' tak before the assembly adjourns for the day Much comment has been made bv the commissioners over the hig character of the debate as far as has irune. There has been a total ab sence of harsh feeling. The question now before the assem bly U: "Shall the majority report lie adopted in its entirety?'' This rej.ort briefly stated. recommends the ap pointment of a committee to prejutre a brief summary of the reformed faith, liearing the same relation to the confession which the shorter catechism bears to the larger catechism, and formed on the general model of the consensus creed prclared for the as sembly of IS',12 on the "Articles o Faith" of the Presbyterian church of England. The report als recom mends that this committee prepare amendments to several chapters of the confession, ei r by modification of the text or hj declaratory statement so as to more clearly exprexs the mlu of the church. The motions to dis miss tlie whole matter and to strik out the recommendation in the ma jority report for a brief summary having lceu defeated, the contest has oar rowed down to a struggle between th advocates of a new creed and those who desire only a moderate revision of the confession.

THEIR LAST RACE Mntormeii Juicing For a Switch Precipitate a Terrible Disaster. A DEADLY COLLISION Two Electric Cars Come Together At Albany X. Y. With Calamitous Results. Pleasure Seekers Caugrht In the Catastrophe On Sunday Afternoon. Albany, N. Y., May 27 Electric cars racing for a switch while running in opposite directions at the rate of 4t miles an hour cost five lives Sunday afternoon by a terrific collision, in whieh over 40 prominent people were injured, some fatally and others seriously. The lobby of the local postofnee filled with dead and wounded, hysterical women and children losing for rela tlves and friends, surgeons ailminis tering temporary relief, and ambu lances racing through the city, taking the wounded to hospitals, were the early intimations of the accident. Tlie scene of the accident was point about two miles ovit of Oreen bush, on the line of the Albany and HikIsoii railway. Tlie noint where the sharp curve, and so fust were tmth running, and so sudden was the eo llsion, that the motormen never luu: time to put on the brakes lefore south lMiund car No. '22 had gone altnos clean through northbound car No. 17 and hung on the edge of a high bluff, with its load of shrieking, maimed hu inanity. One moforman was piniomnl up against the smashed front of the soutlilKiuud car with loth legs severed and killed instantly, while the other one lived but a few minutes. Fully 120 men, women and children formed a struggling, shrieking pyra mid. mixed with blood, detached irtlons of human bodies and the wreck age or tlie cars. Some of the more slightly Injured of the men extricated themselves and began to pull people out of the rear ends of the two cars and almost every one was taken out In this way, and nearly all were badly injured. The few women and children who had eseaiKHi Injury and death were hysterical and added their cries to the shrieks of the dying and mutilated. Men with broken arms and bones, dis located Joints and bloody heads and faces tried to assist others who were more helpless. Help had been summoned from East tlreenbush and vic inity, and in a little time the bruised mass of humanity, with the mutilated dead for a gruesome and silent com pany, were loaded ou extra cars and taken to Albany. 1 here ambulances and physicians had leen summoned and the postotlice turned into a morgue and hospital. As fast as the physl clans could temporarily fix np the wounded they were taken to their homes or to the hospitals. The ears weigh 15 tons and are the largest electric cars built, but so frightful was the crash that both cars were torn almost to splinters. Both cars were filled with Sunday pleasureseekers returning from the new recre ation grounds that the railway had just opened. The southbound car left Albany at 4:30 o'clock and the accident occurred at 5 o'clock. The cars on the line were running at switch headway that Is, as a car reached a siding switch it was supposed to wait until another going In the opposite direction had tassed. Tlie motorman of the southbound car reached one of the switches, but seeing no northbound car decided to take chances and go on to the next siding It was at a curve between the two that the cars met. Not Considered Significant. Washington. May 27 Officials here attach no importance to the disturb ance letween Germans and an American s-ntlnel at Pekin.

SEXTKY MEANT IJl'SLNESS Attempt Ou the Part of a German Oflicer to Charjre An American Sentry Provokes a Shot. Unfriendly Keeling: Evinced Py German Officers Kinds Open JKxprcssiou. Pekin, May 27.- The I'nited States legation guard has had its first trouble. Legation street is oeiug repaired near the legation, and an American sentry was placed at the iHiiut with orders to direct people around by a side street. Everylnxly olteyed the request with the except ioti of the Germans, both officers and soldiers, who have caused the American sentriesmuch trouble. Due of the German officer drew Lis sword and charged an American soldier, who brought his bayonet to "charge." whereuiKUi tin officer desisted. Subsequently a Gcr man soldier charged past the sentry, who tired, hitting another German sol dier near the German legation, a juar fer of a mile off. This fortunately was only a light flesh wound. The seutrj has lieen placed under arrest, ami Major Kohcrtsou has instituted an iu vestigatiou. The altitude of lr Mumm Von Schwartjeenstclu. German minister, representing the civilians, and t'ouut Von Waldersoe, representing th' military, as well as that of other high officials, has been particularly friendly toward tlie Americans, which makes all the more pronounced the unfriend ly feeling evinced by a majority of the German officers and men. TIiI.h unfriendliness is attributed to tlie American attitude in retaining -ontrol with the legation guard of one entrance to the Forbidden t'ity, which the Germans consider a reflection upon their national honesty. Sunday's meeting of the ministers of the powers was devoted to closing ur details of business independent of til Indemnity question, although the mil itary authorities of the various pow ers seem to consider a settlement in sight, as general preparations are !e ing made for the evacuation of IVkln in tlie early future.

v PKCIAION I.OOKKI) l"01S Th fcyenofthe Nation Are On the supreme Court Todny. Washington, May 27. Owing to the fact Uiat the United States supreme court will adjourn today for the term '4c 1 pinion is .ic'le general that the court will deliver iu opinion iu the insular ca tcr. Th s whi. i. wee heard last win-p.-imaiy question is whether! the cession contained iu the treaty of Paris u.ade Porto Uico and the Philippines an integral part of the United States wi'.hiu the meaning of the provision requiring "All duties, imiosts and excises to le unii'onu throughout the United States." The secondary question and whether the temporary revenue provision in the Porto Kican act levying duties on goods coiuiim from Porto Uico into the United States and on goods coming from the United States into Porto Uico, to 1h used for the lieuefit of Porto Uico, until the insular government could provide revenues of her own, violates the constitutional provision that "mi tiix or duty shall In- laid on articles exported from any state." Like the primary question is the question raised in the Hawaiian case, namely, whether the resolution of annexation made Hawaii an integral part of the United States within the meaning of the limitation of the taxing clause, so that instantly our customs laws applied there, notwithstanding the express provision of tlie resolution that the existing customs laws of the Hawaiian republic should continue in force until congress should pass an act extending our custom.! laws to the islands. HIS DISTINGUISHED VISITORA I'o- ipoun Rrrrptlnn That Amonol 1'rroldci.t tirry. M.

Most rf the family have dark spins, suspiciously mu'nlto, and other negro charactei iytios. '1 his has. however, In nowise interfertd with their standing in Paris, where several of the family ::ive long been piominent. The f n mer ir.inistcr had also been president of the municipal ouncil of Paris and a deputy from a Paris airondissciiieiit. His dark skin led to a curious mistake tit the Klysce the day after he had been ap'Miintod a member of the Ilonvler cabinet. According to Immemorial custom the new ministers called singly on President !revy to pay their re-sp-ets. On Hie same day. ns it happened, an official visit was expected from the president of the republic of Haiti, who was to present his letters to the president. When M. de Heredia arrived in the court of the palace, the minor officials stationed there, who were not familiar with tlie new minister's features, judged from his complexion that he was the Haitian dignitary. The courtyard became very animated with guards hurrying to and fro to their places, while one of the officers of the president's military household went to inform M. (Irevy of the distinguished visitor's arrival. M. de Heredia received all this with dignified composure, for, never having been a minister before thin, he thought this ceremonial was probably the usual one. Finally, with the beating of drums, he was ushered into the reception room, where the chief executive stood ready to receive him. "What," cried he, "It's only you. Heredia !" "Why. yes. M. le President" replied the puzzled minister. Orevy liegan to laugh. "Well," he cried, "you have been minister only 24 hours and have succeeded in turning my house upside down. What will you do later on?" Chicago Herald.
