The Rorvleos hold in Broadway church
yesterday morning were mainly in thu
interests of Simpson college , located at
liulianola , Iowa. Bishop Ninde , of Chicago
cage , was present , and spoke in behalf ot
the college. President E. L. Parks , of
the college , was also present , and tlio
pastor of the church , llov. Dr. Alr.Cieary ,
and Ruv. W. T. Smith , presiding older of
this district , assisted in the services. The
musical part of the exercises was very
pleasing , especially a solo given by Allss
IdaToslevln. Bishop Nindo made the
principal address , lie is a man whose
very face and form impress an audience
favorably and although he did not at
tempt an elabortea speeches , Ids address
was like his voice , rich , round , sweet and
simple. In beginning his remarks he
slated that although he had been preach'
ing for thirty years , and during the past
few vears had seldom spoken to the same
congregation twice , yet ho could not
overcome wholly a feeling of embarrass
ment when called on to speak to a
strange congregation. Ho seemed to
succeed welLy however , for an embar
rassed man. Without a note to jog his
niumoryt standing free and fairly outside
the pulpit , he talked smoothly , logically ,
with a rare beauty of rhetoric' , ana exact
ness of choice words for a half hour ,
charming all his hearers. While his
chief thoinu wus the needs and advan
tages of the Simpson college , lie gave a
brief , broad outline of Ids views on Chris
tian education in general.
He did not deem it necessary in the
state of Iowa , with its educational record ,
to spend any time urging the necessity ot
having opportunities for a more liberal
education than that afforded by the com
mon school system. He rcaii/.ed , how
ever , that there wore many mistaken
notions about the so-called denomina
tional colleges. Some fancied that they
were meru training schools for young
ministers. This was not the fact. The
advantages were general , and were of
benelit to those entering upon any of the
pursuits of life. They were not theologi
cal colleges , nor wore they sectarian
colleges. No attempt was made to bias
the student's form of religious belief.
Still there was , or should be , in all such
institutions a religious tone. The atmos
phere should bo so religious that while
it did not servo to make ministers of
every student , nor force the'studeiit into
any particular form of belief or doctrine ,
yet , the whole tendency was toilraw a
student into a religious , Christian way of
thinking and living. Some thought there
was no need for the churches to cstablisli
such institutions , as the state had its
universities. The church , however ,
should maintain such institutions as a
matter of protection. While the speaker
did not seek to antagonize these state
institutions , yet he felt that in many of
tho-ai there was lacking that clear ,
Christian sentiment or atmosphere which
had such u helpful influence on the
young.
It was not necessary that the instruction
should bo sectarian or strictly theological
or directly Christian. The college life
uamo at a very susceptible period in the
.young man's existence. He was away
from homo influences , and hence the
necessity for a healthful , helpful , Chris
tian influence in the school. An unbe
lieving professor might not seek to in
still his unbelief into the mind of a pupil ,
but he could not help but exert some in
fluence in this direction. The students
recognizing a teacher's scholarly superi
ority to themselves , could not but be
come to some extent hero-worship
pers , and were like to bo led into
like forms of belief , or unbelief , us
those hold by the instructor. Then , there
was a great difference- between colleges
ns to the tone among the students them
selves. That institution wus the safest
and best where there wore christainmen
occupying , the chairs , where the leading
ami moil influential students were cliris-
tions. Such a college was the ono under
consideration. As 11 was the only one in
the Des Monies conference , lie thought
the church should give it a liberal sup
port.
The bishop also spoke in favor of small
colleges. Some believed that there should
bo a less number of colleges , and
stronger , larger ones. Ho was glad to
know that there were in the land some of
these great universities , with their post
graduate courses , and grand chances for
the broadest kind of education , but while
these institutions were needed , the
smaller colleges were no less needed , as
thev supplied the wants of a class which
the larger institutions could not reach.
In the smaller colleges ho believed thu
quality of thu education was fully up to
that of the larger ones.
President Parks also spoke briefly , call
ing attention to sonui of the facts in re
gard to the college , of which ho is the
president. He stated a number of cases ,
illustrative of the Christian influence felt
throughout the institution. There had
for the past six years been a steady in
crease in thu attendance , and now there
were over ! ! 00 students. The original
cost of the buildings , and all amounts
given to the institution from its organiza
tion to date , amounted to less than $110-
000. Ho thought that this investment had
already paid well , as about 2,000 pupils
bad thus far gained their liberal educa
tion at this institution. Four had become
Christian missionaries , about ono hun
dred were ministers , and a largo proportion
tion of the others wcro active workers in
Christian fields of usefulness , doing much
for thu church and the world.
The rest of the service was given to an
effort to help the linanciul needs of the
college. New buildings are needed to
furnish increased accommodations for
thu increasing demands. About $20(1 (
was raised in the congregation. Several
years ago a like or larger amount was
given by the sumo church , and several
of the members , notably Colonel and
Airs. Tnlleys , have made generous con
tributions from time to time , so that
Broadway Methodist church Joels that it
has a practical interest in the college.
Last evening Bishop Niude preached
in the church to a largo audience , con
sidering thu unfavoralilu weather. He
loaves to-day for his homo in Chicago.
He has boon giving a week of his time
to help President Parks stir up fresh
interest in Iowa concerning the college.
Bishop Nindo has for years been a prom
inent educator , and has a lively personal
interest in these institutions , and few
men in this denomination are so well
fitted to speak on educational topics , or
speak with so much real heart.
The Cnthollo Fair.
The fair for the benelit of tlio sisters of
St. Francis academy closed Saturday
night. It lias proved a great success ,
and has furnished through the week past
a series of delightful entertainments.

"Ornto" Fishing.
If the old prediction proves true , and
the rainy Kn.ster is followed by seven
other rainy Sundays' , the boys will have a
full season of sidewalk lishing. Those
who arc not familiar with the pranks of
boyhood , were probably mystified yester
day by seeing a group of urchins hovering -
ing about almost every sidewalk grate
on Broadway and Main street. They
were fishing. One of the chief purposes
of this lishing is that of catcHng toads ,
which arc numerous in these queer lish
ponds on rainy days , and Sunday there
being no school hours to interfere , the
boys made the most of their Icnsurc. A
stick , a. pieee of siring , a. ily , n hungry
toad , a quick jerk , makn thu full iiiuhigs
of tlio game. This accounts for the
mysterious gathering of ho boys about
the iron grates in the sidewalks. Aside
from fishing , , tho.boys find a little amuse
ment , if not profit , in also fishing through
thesegrates for "snipes , " and other bits of
plunder. Not the long-legged snipes ,
but thu leavings of some tired smoker's
cigar. The boys do not lish for these
with a bent pin and a Ily. When they
discover a desirable one , they fasten a
little mud onto one end of their stiek ,
nml running this down the snipe clings
to the muddy end of tlio stick and is
drawn up. Occasionally a lead pencil , or
some other little article is discovered ,
which has been dropped through the
gmting , and this is recovered by the
same sort of a mud bait. There were
several scores of boys who were thus
busjing themselves yesterday , and the
variety and quantity of toads , pencils ,
cigar stubs , combs , nickels , pens , nails ,
strings , eto. , which they magaged to so-
euro was astonishing. It seems to be tlio
season for this sort of Sunday sjiort , it
having its annual rage , the same as kite
dying , marbles , alley cleaning proclama
tions and base ball.

Tlic Body Identified.
Several weeks ago the body of n man
was found near Honey creek , but at the
time of the inquest little could be learned
as to his identity , or how lie chanced to
bo there. It was supposed that he must
have perished in some storm , some time
before the body was found. On Saturday
John Persingcr , living nearOnuwa , came
to this city to look up the matter , think
ing the body might be that of a missing
brother , Morgan D. Persingcr. The re
mains were taken up , and were so badly
decomposed that they could not be iden
tified by the features. A scar on one of
the legs , and the clothing , served , how
ever , to prove Unit it was the missing one" .
The man had left liis home in Onawa
Christmas eve , and since then had not
been heard from. Ho was a married
man , and had five children , three of whom
are living. Ho was about-15 years of age.
For some time before ho disappeared he
had acted somewhat strangely , anditwas
feared that he was becoming insane. The
reason stated by him for leaving home' ,
was that , he would find work somewhere.
The remains will be allowed to rest in
the cemetery here , and the friends will
murk the spot with a neat stone.

Mrs. Acton , who was arrested at Avoca
and brought here on the charge of steal
ing $1-0 from Arch Cofl'nuin , was dis-
churgcd Saturday. The information
stated that Mr. CoiVman loft the money
with her for safe keeping , and that when
ho demanded it of her she refused to give
it up. The iittornoys for the defendant
demurred to the information , claiming
that the facts as stated in the information
did not constitute any crime. Judge
Aylcsworlh sustained the demurrer and
the matter was dismissed. It further ap
pears that when it became known that
Mr. Cotl'man lml : deposited this amount
of money in Mrs. Acton's hands , it was
promptly garnished , in an attachment
suit brought by Fremont Kcnjamin to su-
cure $2r > 00 fees for defending Cofl'man in
tlio homicide case. She claimed that in
view of this garnishment she could not
have returned the money to him had she
wanted to without being liable to have to
pay it again. The next chapter in the

F. Horton , the fireman killed near Kan

Thursday. Mr.- Horton has been a citi
zen of Red Oak for a number of years.
Ho was married to a Miss Horton , n

tea is one of the earliest Bottlers of
Montgomery county , having been a resi
dent hero over thirty-live years. Although
the names of Bon F. Horton and wife

for- the st.rii'kcn wife run ! sisters of the
.murdered man.

Prohibition is a sad failure here. The

is drank and no revenue comes from the
sale of it. A few weeks ago a warrant
was got out to search the residence of a
saloon man. Two barrels , containing
about Hovenly-fivo gallons of whisky wore
found in his cellar and taken up town to
Squire Mill's ollicc , where it remained
three or four days , after which it was
taken back from whence it came , and no
more was done about it. K. OF L.

A Crnxed letter Carrier.
Reports were afloat yesterday that Cy
Parker , one of the oldest and best known
of the loiter carriers , Itiul attempted sui
cide. Such reports came with much Mir-
priso to his many friends , who had
looked upon him as one of the last of
candidates for such unpleasant notoriety.
Investigation showed that there was no
actual attempt on his part to end his life ,
but simply threats to do so , growing out
of an evidently disordered brain. He has
suffered occasionally of late with severe
neuralgic pains in the head. About a
week ago he wus obliged to lay oil duty
for a day , but was then all right again.
Saturday morning he was complaining ,
and left his route. He went to the Beeh-
tele hotel and there went to bed , although
he has a home in this city , with wife and
four children. Towards evening ho getup
up and was around the hotel , but acted
very despondent. It rfeenjsthat he wrote
several letters to friends , , bidding them
good-bye , and tellingitiiutn he was about
to t.iku'lus own life. Another of the car
riers took his pay up to him , but he re
fused to take it , tolliijg tlju carrier to see
that a certain debt , fwluch he termed a
debt of honor , was paid , > and that tlio
rest of the money slipiik 'bo ' given to his
wife. In the evening ho. went up to the
Catholic fair , and returned to the hotel
about 10 o'clock. He was in company
with sonic trio-mis , , and as ho said
ho was going to. bed they left
him for the night. ' Instead of
goiiift to bed ho soort left the hotel and
vent up to the ceiiictc'rv. How long
he wandered about in ; the mud and rain
is not known , but about a o'clock in the
morning ho rang the 'boll ' at Air. Burn-
ham's house , near the cemetery , and
asked for shelter. Ho came in and re
mained for a time , and then declared he
was going homo. He went out , but did
not start for home , and the family then
went after him and got him back into the
house. Dr. Hart was sent for and ad
ministered to him , with a view of getting
his nerves quieted down. The doctor
thought that with a good night's sleep ho
might be a great deal better , but up to
yesterday afternoon he was still restless
and despondent. Ho talks continually
about his being the most unhappy mor
tal in the world , and expresses no desire
to live. So far as known ho has always
lived happily with his family , and as ho
has always been looked on us ono of the
most trusty and cllicient of the postollico
employes , there seems to bo no reason for
suspecting any real cause for trouble
either in home or in business. This leads
to the supposition that the trouble is im
aginary on his part , and that his brain is
atl'eeted.

AVOCA , May 1. Editor BKE : The DUE
comes to mo to-day with an accusation
Jrom A. P. Grantor of my having misrep
resented the case as. to tlio difficulty ex
isting between ho and his boudsmon. Aly
niisropre'sentatioii extends this far : The
deputy named by his bondsmen is J. J.
'Hipsluy instead of J. B. Blake. 'J make
thu correction cheerfully , thu mistake oc
curring through being misinformed , not
from n desire to state other thau facts to
the best ol my ability.
J. B. Blake's statement , seemingly ,
borders on ' , Lot mo have a finger in tlio
pie , " n9 nothing has been said as to
whether ho applied for the position or
would have accepted it , or anvthlnc
about it. Tlio saving of never kick until
you are spurred is good advice.
I assure Mr. Cramer it was with no ill
will or diversion of friendship the article
was written , but merely from duty's
standpoint , that of communicating such
items of interest to tlio BKI : as will inter
est the public , aiming , however , to deal
fairly mid honestly by all , misrepresent
ing nothing in its slightest form if I
know it. He , being a newspaper man ,
knows howdillieultit is at all times to
present as it exactly occurs. In conclu
sion , I will say to any who may remain
in doubt as to the truth of my article on
tliii 211th , I respectfully refer them to lion.
