Beautiful Excursion At 11:40 a special train of three senger coaches, contaming nearly 150 of the Presby- terian pastors, elders and ladies of the church pulled out of the union depot and in about twenty minutes halted at the Bellevue depot. ‘The large company of clergymen and onurch workers then followed the winding walk that loads up through the town of Bellevue to the summit of o commending hill about Lalf a milo from the depot, where the college building and Blwina hall stand like sentinels of peace overiooking the great val- ley of the Missouri. A more beautiful autnmn day could not have been selected for the visit.

Behind the hilis to the north and west rolled up the smoke from tho factories and packing houses of two ereat citics, telling in silent cloguence the story of enterprise, idustry, wealth and toil. No wonder one of the dlergymen ex claimed as e lookea from the tower of the college: *What majestic boauty! What a land of plenty and peaceful prosperity 1" Welcome at the College. When tho visitors raachod the voung ladies’ dormitory, at Elwina hall, they were cor- dially greeted by tho matron, Mrs. Dr, Kerr, the profossors and ull the students, An ele: gantand substantial luncheon awaited the visitors, aud the entire party paid the pran- dial.entertainment special attention for about half au hour. Then Dr, Kerr, the vresident, mssisted by Mrs, Kerr, the young ladies of tho school and the professors, showed the visitors through the hall and the college, Everybody - was in ood humor and “all” wero well pleased with the hospitablo manner i which they are en- tertained. Many favorable comments were mado upou the excellent accommodations and facilitics there provided for the education of young indies and gentlemen, At o'clock the party again boarded the train and returned to the eity, Money Ruised tor Missions. As soon ns the members of tho synod reachod the Westminster church, or avout i o'clock in theafternoon,the session was called to order. T'he entire afternoon was devoted tothe missionary cause. Both home and foreign missionary work was discussed, Mrs. Perrine of Omabu read the report of the work of the year doue oy the Womuns Missionary society. The following amounts ware raised by the prosbyteries during tho year and reported to the Foroign Boara of Missious by tho ladies: Owmaha, $608.40; Niobrara, $0; Hastings, Kearnoy, 811415 Nebraska City, $520.40; total, This exceeded the contributions of the previous year by £216.61. ‘To tho home board the scciety reported the following amounts: Omaba, $60+53; Nio- brara, §11:5.615 Hastines, $42.65; I\’n.’llln' 8,07 \Mrv.x\h « .00 total, $1,442.25.

Kignt hundred dollars were do votad to the support of Miss Doty at Seoul Korea. Tho work of the young people along missionary lines was reported to bo 1n ox cellent condition, ‘Tho veport closed with an urgent appeal to all the chursh workers to push on the good work of spreading tho kospel. The report was adopted Kev. I, V.

Tho report was adopted Calk About Buddhism, Rov. Chalmers Martin, a returned mis- sionary, then addressed tho synod, He had & luree map of Siam, whicn he bung up be bind the pulpit and proceeded to delver a very interesting address upon the foroign missionary work. He dwelt at length upon Buddbisw. He quoted the many eommand ments of that pagan religion. Ho beld that It was aosurd 10 compare tho good things of Buddbism with the vital doctrines of Chris tianity. 1o describes the belief of the Buddbists in the existouce aund power of fmagiunry dovils, They surround their bouses the speaker said, with a white string to keep the devils awiyv. They prayed to toe devils to lot them alone when they start on a journey. Tho speakor said tha women of Siam lived in constant dread of imaginury devils who, thoy believe, swarm about thai on overy hand One commundment of the Huddhist re Ligion is *Thou shalt not kill.”" The priests apply this to all animal life aud they will not even kill a mosquito, They will not kill an aniwal of any kind, but’ they think it no bara to buy fish and ‘other aniwal food from others. It is all right to make use of auy thing that others had killed and prepured for food. Neither did the Buddish priests think 1t wrong to order snimals killed for religious asts, The horrible and stupid jusuner and customs of the people were explained by aker 1n & very ablo and entertaining The report of the foreign missionary com- mittee was then adopted. Nebroska Missionary Work Rov. I, L. Soxton, the synodical mission ry for Nebraska, then reported the work that bad been carried on throughout the state under his supervision during the year. He said that twolve new churches had ‘been built during the year. Four new church or- ganizations had been establishied, The fail- ure of erops had interfered witn the work to some extent but the future looked bright and a general advance all along the line was lioped for the coming year, Dr. Sextoa had a larze map of the state suspoudad behind tho pulpit upon which he had the location of every Presbyterian chureh in the state denoted by red, black ana blue spots. The sponker soid that there were alarge number of vacant pulpits needing wood, able pastors. He heped thattho es- tablishment of the theological seminary in Omaha would 1.~m to supply the pastors for these vacant pulpits. The field in the north- west part of the state was especially invit- ing. He said the church was losing ground for the reason that a sufticient number of able pastors could not be found to take up tho worik Tn zlosing the report Dr. Sexton thanked the members of the synod for th kindness and personal help in the mission work dur ing thoe year, Home Missionary Work, Rev. Asa Laird then read the report of the home missionary ymmittee. e said that Inst year nearly one-third of the churches of the state were vacant I'he tion, he sald, was not materially chi There were seve reasons for this lamentable con- dition of affairs. Scme of the charges could not or did not provide suflicient supvort for ministers, and & second great causo was the nsnfficient number of ministers in the stat He said that the increase in contributions to the Home Mis sionary board had ouly been about $400 in six rs. and this in the face of the fact that the membership of the synod bad increased nearly 6,000, During the year I801, hewever, the increase had been very encouraging, notwithstanding the poor crops of 1500, In closing the report the committeo commended very heartily the work of the synodical missionary, Dr.” F. L. S nd urged upon the brethren the imnortauce of grouping some of the weaker churches snd of contributing more liberally to the work of haime missions. Rev. J. S, Sloan was then called upon to speak upon the subject. He offered some very practical suggestions and timely recom- mendations, Dead Churches. Rev. Asa Laiwd made a vigorous speech upon thosubject of filling the vacantchurches of the state, He saud that some of the Pres- byterian churcbes appeared to be nothing but tombstones. ‘They coula ndt pet pasto a few years ago, and now somo of them were s0 cold and dead that they didn’t want pas- tors. He made a powerful appeal to the brethren to arouse the flagging spirit or Presbyteriansm in those communities where these dead churcies are located. Dr. Kerr, president of Bellevue college, then addressed the synod in the interests of home missions. He deplored the fact that the Omaba presbytery had reported a smaller amount of money for home missions during the past year than the year previous. The synod recommended by unanimous vote the omployment for the coming year of Rov. T. 1. Sexton as synodical misstonury. The committee appointed to draft resolu- tions upon the death of Rev. Elijab Lewis reported suitable and appropriate resolutions aud they were adoptea ‘T'ne afternoon session was then adjourned. What Dr. Hays Said. At the ovening session of the synad M. Dorrick, leader of the Westminster chowr, sang a solo in a very effective manner. Miss Oliver, soprano, and Miss Roeder, contralto, sang “Oh, Morning Land” in a most artistic and touching style. Dr. Kenderson, the moderator, then intro duced Rev. Dr, George 1. Hays, pastor of the Second Presbyterian church of Kansas City, said to be as good as two men and a brass 1 in furnisbing iustruetion and entertain- t. Ur. Hays camo at the vequest of the Board of Home Missions to address the sveaker touched the work of home missions ull the way from New York to the cific _coast. Ile said tho Presbyterians should bo upon the lookout all along tho line or the_ field would slip away from them. By the nid of many very apt and witty illus- trations the eloquent gentieman succeaded in irnishing the audierce with a great doal of information and a vast amount of very enjoy- avle entertainment, Presbyterian Church South, Dr. Hays pieaded eloguently for the col- ored men of the south. He said that the col ored men wero predisposed toward Presh terianism. The poor whites of the south also were favorably inclined toward the Presby- terian cbureh. Poor people could join the Methodist church and be good Methodists and still stay poor; but w poor man who be: came o good, orthodox Presbyterian was al- most sure to muke money. It was natural for u good Presbyterian to make money, and : that reason the southeruors like the Pres- yterian chiurch, “[ho speaker said that the most corrupt 1 degraded conditions of society 1n the United States were to be found in'the rural xas_among the Roman Catho lics. Ho :d the missionaries of Siam to produce anything more revolting in the Neathen worstip of the orient than he had scen in T He touched upon the mission work among the Indiaus, and then gave the Omaha Theo- logieal seminary a few words of carnest coni- wendation. He said that people should not got ashamed of the weak suburban churches, and flock to the large, fashionablo houses of wouship. He urged upon’ the pastors the im- portance of taking up a collection for home missions. “You will always get your hat back, sad the speaker, “and o loug as you dou’t lose your hat keep going through tho motions of taking up the missionary coilection. If ever you have a caso of death-bed repentance that you wantto puttotho testjust take your bat and strike tho paticut for a missionary collaction:” [Applause. | “The speaker was frequently applauded by tho audience, Foreign Missionary Work, Dr. Avthur Mitehell, ono of the secretaries of the Board of Forelpn Missions, was then introduced and addressed the synod upen tho interests of the foreign mission work “The speaker paid a glowing tributo to the wemory of Samuel 1.

New Yous, Oct. 15.—Wall strect is_aston- ished by the new rovelations in the Adams express embroglio and hundrods of business iends of John Hooy, the deposod prosident, says a moruing paper, are pained to learn that be sold out every dollur’s worth of his stock in the corporation just before the Bos- ton Dispatch and Adams Ixpress negotiations. Clapp Spooner, the then vice president, was 1 the same transaction, and he, too, says the ame paper, disposed of all his holaiugs in the compauy’s shares prior o the turn which enriched him tothe extont of 172333 Tho committen of investigation was thunder- straclc when these discoveries were made. JJust think of it,” said one of tho mana- gors of tho company, *tho president and vico president of the great Adums Express company sell ull their stock aad thon buy certain property for the company, paying for it, outof the treasury, 10,000 moro than it is wortin.” ‘I'ho speaker was oxcited, and beforo ho cooled off ha inadvertently dropped tho re- mark that another genticwen, high in the councils of the company, was also implicated in what he callod a very quostionable tran- saction. “I'ne corporation has been cheated out of a large sum of uoney,” added tho irate manager.

A reporter passed through the gato where two watehful clerks have stood on guard for the past three days, and was escorted into the big divectors room. Vico President Lovejoy and Commit teeman Dinsmore were seated at the big ma- hogany council table and wero delving in 0ooks, documents and papers to find out just bow the company stands financially. 1t is a big task to go over all the accounts of millons of dollars worth of ousiness extending over tho past threo vears—since Mr. Hooy's i cumbency—and the members of the commit tee were inclined to believe that a repor could not be prepared beforo October 23, at which date tno board of mauagers meet again, 1t is said that a good many suspicious. cntries and items bave been discovered which tho ex-vresident and_ vieo-president will be alled upon to- explain, *You may say,”” explained President Sand- ford,as ho dvamatically drew up bis tall form, “that the officors of Liis company will spare no effort to r ver the large sums which have been uulawfully taken from the troas ury.” “Will suits at law be lustituted?” was asked. “Undoubtedly " “Will & criminal prosecution bo at tempted It may come to that. “Mr. Hoey does not own a dollar's worth ! of stock,” said the president. ‘I regret to say that this statement also applies to Mr Spooner."! I'his was what the investigation rovealod yesterday. The dithpresidont and vice presi- deut, soon after they went into office in 1888, actunlly soldrout all of their shares of stock, and the same mon made the trade by which the Adams J3xpress acquired the Bos- ton Dispatch company and Kinsley Express company in NewwEngland for the sum of $850,000. "Ihe nowofficers allego that [Toey and Spooner, who: acknowledged 1n the su- preme court befove Judge Ingrabam last April that they divided the sum of §00,000 profits on this del, did not own n doliar's worth of stock at the (imo of the transaction nov for the past three years.
