Baptists for Expansion.
DKTBOIT , Mich , May 27 , Ex
pansion soutimert was rife at thd
missionary mass meeting held to
night as one tl.o features of the
American Baptist missionary anniversaries
niversariesir' Wayland lloyt ,
of Philadcphia , began his add rest-
ou the subjcot -Denominational
iLXpanRion in Relation to the Work
of the Baptist Society , " by quoting
from a speech at a children's day
celebration in Maasachuotts five
years ago , at which tuuo the anti-
imperiaiist statesman is reported to
have said that the tree of liberty
and sclf-govornmeut set out by the
fathers of thj republiu , having
spread aoorosa the continent , its
roots would "in gocd tiiiio thrust
thouiaolvos beneath the waves and
spread to the isles of the Pacific. "
"This prediction , " said Dr. lloyt ,
oaino true more quickly than the dit-
tinguiahod senator anticipated and
evidently more quickly than he
deeired. It is true that ho made
this eloquent and logical stantemcnt
in 1895. A hundred anti-expnaion
Hjiceches mudo in 1000 could not
offaoo the effect of that truthful
piediction , "
Dr , lloyt argued eloquently for
expansion in missionary effort ,
keeping pace at least with the pro-
green of the Aincricau flag.
Madson C. Peters , D. D. , of
New York also argued strongly for
political and religious expansion in
his address concerning expansion of
the work of the Baptist homo nils ,
sion society , lie assorted that the
Baptist would stand by and follow
the American flag in confidence
that it would never retreat. Rev.
Theodore G. Scares Ph. D. , of
Illinois spoke along similar Hues in
relation to the work of the Baptist
tn'iBonary ( foreign ) union.
One of the Sunday features was
the dedication this afternoon of [ the
now missionary chapel car "Herald
of Hope. " The car is the sixth
placed in the service by Baptist of
America within llio p.iHt six yours ,
the expense of which has boon sus
tained wholly by true will off < ring * .
The five oars already in Hurvtuo
liavo operated all ever tlio west ,
aud thuir pilgrimages liavo resulted
in building many churches and
adding to their mmnharships. The
"llurald of Hope" will operate on
the northern frontier ,
K\\
The World Herald of the 25 has
the following :
Alliaioc , Neb. , May 120 E. G.
Wait , u jeweler of this place , was
lulled by Henry Mathews at II
o'clock this morning. U SOOIIH
that Wait wan trying to collect a
nnall bill for repair work done for
Matthews , and became persistent in
his efforts when Matlhown utruck
him ever the head with some heavy
instrument fulling him to the floor.
Wait got up ftiitl walked for moio
than a block and fell on the side
walk unconsoioiH. Ho wis taken
at once to his rooms where Dr. A.
S. Bellwood attended him. Wait
died at 9 o'clock p. in. , without re
gaining "oiiBciousness. Ho loaves
a wife aud two children in very
poor circumstances.
Mr. Wait was a Marshalltown ,
la. , boy and learned his ImsinoHH
under Brodhoad. Ho was for t'tv-
oral years located in Broken Bow ,
Neb , and romovoQ to this place in
tlio year 1894 where he has since
resided. The time for his funeral
has not y.'t been announced.
At first it was not generally sup
posed that V.'f.it's injuries were sei-
iotiH , HO an action charging assault
with intent to commit great botlly
injury was filed before Jj. A Berry ,
justice of the peace , and MattlmwH
was arrested and placed under 8500
bonds for a preliminary hearing
Later it became evident that Wait
was in it morn serious condition
than was at first supposed , nnd anew
now complaint was filed charging
assault with intent to commit mur
der , and the bond inoroaH d to $5-
000 later. Later , afier Air. Wait
died , ho WHH .gain arrested tin the
charge of miinler and his prelimin
ary hearing wet , for May 28 at 1
o'clock p. m. before the same jus
tice.
APiancc people are greatly shook
od at this occurrence. Maltliown
has long berne a hard name.
The report of E. G. Wait's death
at Alliance Saturday evening as the
result of a stroke over the head
with some heavy iiiftrnmont , while
in a saloon reached hero Sunday
morning. Wait had boon a resi
dent hero for a number of years
prior to 1894 , engaged in the jewel-
fry business and was quite general
ly known by tlio people of this
vicinity. Ho first commenced
busineHS here , IH jeweler for J. L.
Cobb. While in Mr. Cubb'd employ
he was industrious , sober aud re
garded as an cxemployory young
man Subsequanlly he bought out
iMr. Cobb who had decided to move
to California * Ho soon took to
drink and gambling and Ins busi
ness run down , In 1894 ho moved
to Alliance where ho lias since been
in the jeweler business but not
being able to break off from his
former habits he had not boon able
to more than make a living. The
trouble which resulted in his death
was brought on by trying to collect
a bill of one of his patrons for
whom ho had ropaird a watch. It
is said that ho and another man
"accompanied Mathews into a saloon
and when Mathews laid 50 cents
upon the counter to pay for the
treats Wait took the money and
stated that ho would credit that
uopn his account , Mathews pro
tested saying that was all the
money ho had" . Hot words wore
exchanged when Malhews struck
Wait ever the head with some
heavy instrument breaking tlio
skull. After recovering his feet
Wait walked a short distance but
tibvor regained consoiounoss. The
deoeasee loaves a wife and two
children in poor circumstruces.
The murder is under arrest und
doubtless will have to Hpoud a term
in the ponitontiory for the rish act.
But as it can 1 ardly bo shown that
it was a premeditated murder the
charge of murder in the first degree
will hardly bo proven. Mrs. Wait
has the sincor sympathy of her
many friends here in her great
bereavement.
History or Nebraska.
"Tho History of Nebraska , upon
which Dr. Goo. L. Miller and the
editor of The Conservative are
bestowing editorial attention , will
not , in all probability bo published
before December 1900.
To keep out fancies and fictions
and to put in the facts and the
truths of Nebraska's settlement and
development in a perfectly justifiable -
able manner , IH a work requiring
time , tranquility and conscientious
investigation.
The attempt to make the vork
really and completely reliable will
be continued by the editors , whone
final revision of its pages will bo
maun without four , favor ? , or af
fection. The Conservative.
