ing about as much now as ho would if elected
and can Hive all the expense , time , worry

Is making a goo > l strong race. Tlu > other
withdrawal was that of Hon. Simon Cameron
of Broken Bow , who WHS nominated for dis
trict judgn. TJie reasons for his withdraw
ing are purely personal. He says tho\noml-
natlon was given him without his asking for

cannot afford to make the raco. The com
mittee put In his place William Gaslln of

In the wildest gallop. About three miles
out of town they took the track. In this
vicinity there Is quite n long curve , re
ferred to as thu Black Hawk bridge. The
h'Tscs started across the bridge , but of
course did not proceed far. Their legs went
down between the tics and they were se
curely fastened there.
Fritz Ernstmeycr , a German farmer liv
ing near , had noticed the approach of the
horses and immediately set about with the
assistance of William Lehman and Leopold
Spothmann , two neighboring farmers , to get
the horses aff the track. But It was a big
task and they soon realized the Importance
of flagging the fast mall , which they knew
would bo thundering along In a few minutes.
Mr. Ernstmeycr ran up the track with a
lantern , for It had by this time become
unite dark , and It was not long before the
headlight of the approaching train was In
sight. Ho swung his lantern furiously and
tlte engineer obeyed the signal at once.
The long , heavy train eamo to a standstill.
Superintendent Sutherland was on the
train and personally superintended the work
of removing the horses. With any number
of men to assist this wus noon accomplished
and the train completed the trip to Grand

KU1E. Pa. , Oct. 14. The council of the
Evangelical Lutheran church convened hero
today. Her. Kdward V. Motdohnko of Now
York , the president. In his report said :
The penerul council has doubled Its nu
merical strength within the Inst thirty
years. In 1SC7 It numbered 57. pastors , 1,101
conoregMtlonn nnd H4,716 , cominunlcnnt
members ; today the gonernl council bad a
membership of 1.13S pastors , 1,19s congregn-
tlons nncl 32GSSa communicants.
\Ve deplore , he wild , nuvit deeply the
schisms In our church nnd plndly bull
nil honest attempts to henl "the nllllctlon of
Joseph. " Therefore we regret thnt no pen-
crnl free conference 1ms tnken iilafc during
ISM , Such conferences might bring .us mtid-
'ually no nearer to the desired unity. With
tlilH purpose In view the Lutheran league
has been formed. The lenirue If
really a movement to unite nil
Lutheran * on the common basis
of the unaltered Ainrsburt ; confession. To.
this the league ought to mid Luther a
smaller catechism , which It should have
done from the start , nnd this would have
Hllenced the scruples of ninny. The policy
of the Luther league bin so fur been quite
conservative. Undoubtedly local Influence *
'Will ' bo responsible for the Lutheran symp
toms which may occasionally come to the
surface , but we fervently hope for the vic
tory of truth. This movement , which has
Rxnmdcd so surprUlmtly , may become abun
dantly useful to our church ; but. If not
properly held In the right channel * may also
prove very dangerous nnd harmful.
