There was a meeting of the
ial Association last Monday morning in
the Grace church rectory. After the
formal opening it was agreed apon to
make Rev. Ulmer representative on the
local press. It was also agreed to open
correspondence with the state organisa
tion of charities with a view to effecting
a permanent organization of charities
in Columbus. Rev. DeWolf read a very
able paper on "John Wesley, Preacher
and Theologian." The- readera of the
local papers will be interested in a brief
sketch of the order. After ,disonaaiag
the hjatorical importance of the Wes
leyan movement the writer said in part:
"The decadent condition of the Chris
tian church in Wesleyaa'a tiaaa with the
consequent hunger of the people tar the
Gospel of Christ, furnished the oppor
tunity for the great revival The lead

controversery in which he engaged with
other earnest Christians of hia own age.
was due to the unwillingness of the
theologians of his day to recognise the
limits of haman understanding in the
interpretation of the word of God. The
world owes him a great debt of grati
tude for the place in the chareh to
which he brought the doctrines of the
witness of the Spirit, and the entire sa
tisfaction of the sonL The approach to
the latter has without doubt fonndsoaae
modification in later decades throuerh
recant psychological discoveries
classifications, bnt the Wesleyan
tention that 'to love God with all the
heart, soul, miad and strength, and hia
neighbor as himself, constitute a per
fect Christian; "must to the end of time
remain a doctrine of the Christian
church."
On the morning of October 9th, Gut
Koza, mail carrier on route No. 2, and
Dr. F. B. Schnltz of this place found
the remains of an ucdnown man in the
cornfield on the old Jonas Fry farm in
Wilson precinct. The throat of the man
was cut from ear to ear, and the bloody
razor with which the deed was done
was fonnd in his coat pocket. There
waa nothing about bis belongings that
gave the least cine to the iaenity of the
deceased. Coroner Allen held an in
quest and the jury brought in a verdict
to the effect that that the deceased
took his own life by cutting his throat.
The remains were brought to this place
and bnried in the Clarkson cemetery,
and many expressed the belief that the
idenity of the man would never be
known. It. now thought the mystery
may probably be unraveled. On Oct.
31 Dr. Schiltz received a letter H. M.
Kemp, an old settler of --Colfax county,
living a few miles west of Schuyler,
which contained a description of the
husband of his stepdaughter aad which
corresponds very elosefy to that of the.
suicide. The doctor answered the lat
ter giving Mr. Kemp all information
possible, aad on the 5th of this month
received a second letter in which Mr.
Kemp expressed the belief that the de
ceased waa Clyde Briggs, husband of
his stepdaughter. The wife also wrote
aad told of her having lived with Briggs
for six years, during which time he waa
frequently inaane and that she waa muc
afraid of him. She left the deceased at'
Greenville, Michigan, last February and
with their little three year old child
came to the home of her stepfather. She
aaya her husband waa seen in Green
ville, in August and thinks that he came
west in search of her and the child, and
one or. nis insane spells coming on ha
took his life. Her description of her
husband tallies with that of the saicida
and by exhuming the reaaaias it ought
not to be any difficulty to settle the
question. Those who viewed the re
ataina of the suicide and have read the
description given of Briggs are confi
dent that they are oae and the
