Proceedings.
New York, My SO. At the session
of the general lethodist corfffrenoe to
day the following resolutions were
adopted:
The nw rule of the pastorial service
fclmll be niiplied as follows: At the sen
sion of any annual conference next fol
lowing this general conference, a preach
er may be appointed to a charge which
he hin not served for the three yenrs pre
ceding, and be continued thereafter in
said charge for live years, and a pastor
now serving n charge which he has not
served for thrc years preceding in pres
ent pastorate, may he continued through
the full term of five Tears. In all other
cases the rule of five years in ten shall be
strictly applied.
The report on temporal economy, pro
viding for the better care of superanuat
ed ministers, was read.
Rev. D. P. Kidder was made honorary
secretary of the board of education.
Omaha was selected as the place of
meeting of the next general conference,
and a committee of seven appointed to
confer with the Omaha churches.
It was decided that during the months
of October or November, 1890, an elec
tion shall ba held in the various churches
throughout the union, that each member
of 21 years of age shall be given an oath
reletive to the admission of women as lay
delegates, the result to be sent to the an
nual conference in 1891.
TI13 remainder of the session was taken
up in discussion of the rcprt about uni
formity of public worship.
Threatened Strike of Coal Miners.
IJirmixgiiam, Ala.. May 30. A gener
al strike of tha 5,000 coal miners in the
Warrior coal fields and the shutting down
of all the furnaces in this city is immi
nent. Siuce the strike of the miners at
Pratt mines there has been a general feel
ing cf dissatisfaction among all the min
ers and secret meetings have been numer
ous. The Pratt mine strike was followed
by the men at Coalburg going out Satur
day last because they were refused an ad
vance ot 5c par ton. The miners at all
the mines are demanding 10c to 15c per
ton more than they did one year ago,
when coke, coal and iron were worth
more than at present. Mine owners can
not stand the advance and . miners seem
to be controlled by the agitating'striking
clement among them. It is rumored to
day, and has been officially denied, that
a srike has been ordered at all the mines
in the Warrior coal field, to begin June
first.
Riyor Ravages Opposite Sioux City.
Sioux Citt, Io., May 30 The Missouri
river has begun its ravages here again,
and since yesterday morning has cut 150
feet into the shore on the Nebraska side
urrectly opposite this city. The cutting
was so rapid that buildings could not be
removed and a two-story building owned
by Nick Deyson is hanging over the wat
er and will fall soon. If the cutting
keeps up at the same rate, the entire town
of Coyington will be swept away in a few
days. The bank there is 10 or 15 feet
high and great masses become disengaged
and fall into the rapid current every few
minutes. Seyeral years ago a good share
of the original town site was engulfed
and last summer a large tact of the Iowa
side was swallowed up.

ation since the frost cut down his early
potatoes, and destroyed his pumpkin

J. R. Vail cry sent over a very large
herd of cattle which he gathered up.
to have Ii-rdod on his vast scope of land
near Yalpariso this season.
The past two weeks has been very good
weather for house-e'eaning, and the la
dies of the neighborhood are improving
the time.
T)r. John Brendle, of Union, who was
to locate here, changed his mind, and
has gone to M-inley. Doubtless he made
a good exchange.
Nearly all of our farmers a.re done
planting corn, and many are replanting
their first planting, as the cold, wet
weather, cut worms, and wire worms
have destroyed so much of the seed they
are compelled to do so.
Hardon Minford, the son of one of our
old citizens, and Mrs. Correl, of Mr.
Pleasant, were married on Thursday. It
was very quiet, only a family affair.
They have a host of young friends who
wisti them a long and happy lift?.
Saturday night a bolt of lightening
struck and killled four head of cows for
Aaron Batterson, living two miles east of
the Grove. A bolt of lightninsr also
struck the chimney of the M. E. church,
tore it down, run down the wall, tearing
off the plastering as it went, until it
reached the ground, otherwise it did no
damage to the building.

Sacred are thoe in each loyal breast.

Free from toils and human Kie.
You fouubt the battles and won Ibe race.
And bath gone hence to a better place ;
We've crowned the ineuuds with fragrant

We adorned the! coverini; old mother earth
Then iu silence returned to our inyrtli.

Salaries of Hlo-b Tor; v
The salaries of leading chefs iu privato
families already in New York range from
$150 to $300 a month. They, too, re
ceive commissions, and in large places
employ their own assistants, consisting
of a meat and pastry cook and a kitchen
girl to peel vegitables and do other work
of a similar character. And it is not an
unusual thing for the chef to get a percent
age out of the wag"s which are paid to
these subordinates. The chief cook at
Delmonico's receives $G,000 a j ear and a
share of the profits of the establishment
after they have passed $200,000. I In
shares these supplementary profits with
the acting manager of the establishment,
and they are said to bo very considerable.
His income is supposed to be somewhere
between $12,000 and $15,000 annually.
Like all enthusiastic chefs ho li de
voted to those patrons of the establish
ment who give good dinners and who
L understand them. And ho caters to
them in a way that no presents of money
could possibly secure. When such
patrons come along the waiter receives i
card with the two letters inscribed on it.
S. A.," meaning special attention, and
this is done not only to favor the patron
but to satisfy the cook, who insists on
having his favorite dishes properly served,
just as a poet desires to have his poems
recited with a proper emphasis and ap
preciation. New York World.
Treatment ot Pauper Consumptives.
No hospital or dispensary phvsician In
our large cities can fail to recognize the
utter feebleness and inutility of the pres
ent methods of treating pauper and indi
gent consumptives. Dr. Seibert has
averred that among poor Germans dis-
Eensary treatment not only fans to cure,
ut even sensibly to relievo this class.
Dr. Paul H. Kretzsclimar confesseed to
an experience nearly similar. In tho
hospitals the story is not quite so bail.
Many patients in the first stage improve
for a time, but tho percentage of cures in
extremely small, and most cases progress
rapidly to the worse. Iu rvew lork city
there are some 30,000 cases of consump
tion, with 5,000 annual deaths. If soci
ety provided sulRcient means of treat
ment, at least 10 or 20 per cent, of them
could be cured and restored to useful
citizenship. Medical Record.

There are abundant reasons whv
money should count for less in society
hero than it does abroad. Rich men are
numerous among us. Wealth 13 accu
mulated with ease, and dissipated with
rapidity. Millionaires are almost as
plentiful as English sparrows. We are
familiar with their presence and familiar
also with the fact that riches are often
found without the qualities that afford
pleasure to intelligent people. Those who
are the joy and pride of the most select
society are frequently people of moderate
estate. The parlor in which it is most
