The Whist club of Omaha pald a visit to this side of the river Thursday night, and by an early hour yesterday morning had added one more proof to the claim that the Council Bluffs club is hard to beat. This was the second game of the series, and the result was like that of a week ago, exczpting the victory for Council Bluffs was not quite B0 sweeping. In fact, the teams were very mvenly divided, and the game was exciting from start to finish. There were seven tables. Barstow and Treynor defeated ‘Wilber and Allen by 8; Mayne and Wickham defeated Wilber and Alley by 4; Pusey and Mendricks defeated Heath and Rhinehart by 13; Dawson and Dr. Treynor defeated Tilson and Stebbins by 3; Woodbury and Shea de- feated Meikle and Hawks by 12; Waterman and Morgan defeated Funkhouser and Gardner by 9; Altchison and Black tied with Secannell and Weber; Jones and Smith were defeated by Musselman and Jordan by 19, and Dawson and 1.

SONORA, Cal, May 17.—The snow, rain and wind that prevailed in the Sierra Nevada foot hills during Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday was very disastrous to the sheep Industry. The road from Sonora up to Strawberry statlon, twenty-three miles, fs lined with dead sheep. The storm was unusually severe for this time of the year and the sheep having been sheared before entering the country were in an unfit condition to meet the winter, Up to this date some 40,000 sheep have en- tered this country enroute for the mountain ranges, and as all of them were caught in the storm It is a low estimate to say that one-third of them have been killed. FRESNO, Cal., May 17.—The returns from the mountalns are begiuning to come in and show that the loss to the sheepmen on ac- count of Monday's storm is far greater than at first stated. At one place 4,000 sheep were found frozen to death in one heap where they had tried to find shelter among the trees. The snow was two feet deep on top of them. There are thousinds of sheep farther back in the mountains and they can- not be reached on account of snow. There 18 hardly a possibility that they can be saved It they were not frazen to death during the storm they will die of starvation before the Mass ase state | G.

EUGENE, Ore., May 17.—The general as- sembly of the Cumberland Presbyterian church-opened in this city today. Rev. F. B. Earle, D.D., of Arkansas, was elected moderator. Meridian, Miss., was chosen as the place for holding the next general as- sembly. This morning after the opening exercises the retiring moderator, Rev. Dr. Ferguson of Illnois, delivered a sermon, taking as his text, “Because the King's Business requires Haste.” He dealt with some of the reforms which are needed at the present time and how the church should work in co-operation with the state in the accomplishment of the desired end. He said the part of the church in this united work is not in making laws, but in education, in assisting in the de- velopment in the higher life of the indl- vidual, aiding a spiritual understanding which’ will lead to a consclentious ex- ercise of the rights of citizenship. He urged agsressive action on the part of the church in this direction. There is not so much to fear at the present time from Romanism or science as from the evil of too indiscriminate bible criticism. Southern Presbyterian Assembly.
