T\\'INO'S ADDHESS. The afternoon session at the Woman's auxiliary was devoted to an address by Mrs. Twlng , honorary secretary ot the 'Voman's auxiliary oC New York. Mrs Twlng's toile ' Inter- I was very Interestingly - epersed with experiences that had come m under her observation during her travels l ! In foreign countries In connection with the work ot the auxiliary. She was ! Introduced o . by BIshop Worthington. ; ; i This was not her first visit , she sold , to " Omaha 'twenty.five years ago this summer ( she was on her returl1 from a I i visit to California during the early days oC the Union Paciflc , and on arrival here site WIUI delayed by a wash- out. Time difference between the mean ap- Jlearanco oC the city at those early flays ! , with Its shanties little chapels and dirty streets and with the accompaniment ot . rainy weather and the present magnificent city , together with the prosperity oC the church and Its magnificent school , DI'ownell hall was graphically described. ThIs was II plctur oC the success the church had been , , striving Cor. The women were to be congratulated . gratulated for their share In time worle. But they must not think It Is theirs. It Is mho work oC the Great Master who could do It . himself , but offered It as a privilege to ! } ' them to become co-worllers. TIme success ot ! . the auxiliary : has been called wondel'tul. , , Jl Is wonderful , In the sense that It Is not the result oC a. society planned on paper be- , fore Its Inception , but oC a living growth. I . On Its orIgin , twenty-two years ago , It was not even Imaglnell that It would gather within Itself all the women oC the church Jl hall been founded on two Ilrlnclples : First . that every baptized woman oC the church . should bo a. member : and second that the 1Iehl oC operation should bo as wide as the world. Parlshcs have established other conditions . ditions but every baptized woman Is con- sldered on active worker. Together with tile board at missionaries , representing the body ot men , and the Junior auxiliaries representing . resenting the children , It has made the church a. vast missionary society It has tour branches oC work : Care oC missions , prayer for missions work for missions anti to give to IIIlsslons. It Is desired - sired that all members take part In every branch but It Is expected that each shall work In some branch Some Imagine mis- sionary work Is confined to the home the diocese or even the entire United States. Others think It consists only ot foreign mission worlt. It Is necessary to feel that It Is overywhere. Time answer to the ques- lon oC what missionary work consists In Is this : Work done not for our- elves or for our church but for others The secret to time wealth oC eastern churches Is found In the fact that they were givers. The cause Is hopeful and not tulllng One ought not bo de- pressell. The success oC the ( church lu Omaha Is duplicated the world over. 'fho objection to foreign missionary support Is duo to ignorance oC this.

When lie Introduction oC testimony was commenced Lewis succeeded In proving ( that once upon a time he asked hla wife for a kiss , but Instead ot giving him the expression ot love for which he asked she flew at him like a temulo tiger and nearly bit off his lip , at 'tho sane time gouging her lingers Into his eyes , with the fixed determination oC prying hoth oC them out.

Following up this kind ot treatment , the plaintiff testified that the detellllllnt poured boiling ( hot coffee down his back , threw empty beer bottles at him , causing them to carom on his head , poured milk over his Sunday garments and many times she applied the pct name oC "Joke \Iurderer" : when they were at home and out In society In granting the decree Judge Ferguson said that as a usual thing he was opposed to granting divorces where the husband charged cruelly , but as this was a case where It was apparent that there was a horrible matrimonial mlsnt the rule would have to be stretched Result of 1\ HIIII/lttcr 1'\1C'l101I. : The case oC Anna Christianson : agaInst Edward Callahan , Constable Clark and a number ot other defendants continues to drag Its way along In Jlllige Hopewell's court before a jury.

' Soon after this she became sick and eventually - ally Insane , after which the dalllage suit was commenced by her husband , who has been appointed guardian for the purpose. At the last term ot court the case was tried , but the jury tolled to reach an agreement and It was slated for this term. Last week the retrial was commenced and a vast amount oC testimony iitroduced Yesterday Mrs. ClllistianS.111 was dmducted Into the court room and placed In the wltns choir , but before any questions were asked she went Into a dead faint and remained there In the presence ot the jury until after restoratives were applied.

JJ.IU. Oh' iIlllIG.I 7'JU.V. SILVER CREEK , Neb , May 2I-To the Editor at The Bee : The sUbject oC Irriga- ton Is beginning to attract the attention oC farmers In this part oC the stato. Last Friday I. A. Fort oC North Platte , president at the Nebraska Slate Irrigation association , spoke on that question at this place to a very appreciative audience ot farmers and others , and on the day following . In the afternoon mod evening , at Central City. lueh ( Interest was manifested and local as- soclutlons were organized at both plnces. It Is true we are neither In the ( arid or semi-arid region , the mean annual rainfall In this locality being about twenty-seven Inches , and yet It Is true we often have a partial failure oC crops from long con- tinned dry weather. This was true oC last year and the year before and I Is already certain that It will bo true oC this year . also , as to small grain and at corn too , ! I we do not get rain soon. These things are Impressing on the minds oC the farmers the very great advantage , even IC not the necessity at supplementing the rainfall with an artificial supply at water , providing I can bo cheaply and economically dote Mr. Fort tells us that canals can be constructed . structel along this valley . the Plate , by the farmers themselves at a cost , exclusive ot the right oC way , not exceeding In his opinion , $1.25 per acre , and that an annual outlay oC about 2. cents per acre would servo to keep these canals In repair. Brit ho tells us that In connection with such n system oC irrigating ditches , we should also have a system oC ditches for dralncge to carry off the surplus water In unusually wet seasons. , I mlghtseem that all this would Iuvolve toot great al expense In money and labor , and yet It Is probable that our losses on crops for the post two years would be sufficient to accomplish I all. It should be taken Into account also that with such means ot control we should not only be reasonably sure ot a crop every year but that the product per acre a8 shown by the experIence at those In sections depending wholly on irrigation , might easily be doubled and even trebled. There Is this further consideration that even In the most favorable seasons there Is perhaps not a state In the union when there are noL tines during the growing season when water could be most advantageously applied I It could be hod. But wo have the water now flowing by our doors In a volume sufficient , as Mr. Fort estimates . to cover 30.000,000 oC acres six Inches deep Is It not then the part oC wisdom for the people oC this valley ali ot those living near any oC our more Important rivers and creeks to give this matter their most serious and careful consideration ?
