The fact that indefinite scraps of in- | formation are all that can be secured gives cause for alarm that the storm is much more serlous than is generally ad- | mitted. From a small settlement several | miles " west of Fremont, in Sumner | County, it is said all of the houses were wrecked, with loss of life. This report cannot be substantiated. The storm area, so far as can be learn- ed, extends over about ten counties near and at the southern line of the State.

There are no towns in a posi- tion near enough to either of these rivers to suffer to any great extent. Longmont is fnaccessible to-night by wire.

ATTACKS WESTMINSTER CONFESSION OF FAITH of ours now ' Those popular blue serges start upon the tenth week of the sale. | get along with a confession of faith con- Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst Declares for a New Presbyterian Creed. NEW YORK, April 15.—Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst, speaking in his pulpit in Mad- ison-square Presbyterian Church to-day, made a vigorous assault on the Westmin- ster Confession of Faith. He sald: “We ought to have a new confession of faith. It is surprising that the Presby- terian Church is able to do as much as it {s doing with such an incubus strapped upon us as we are tottering under in our present confession. In the first place, the thing needed is not a system of theology, for that is what our present confession i but a simple, brief, Saxon statement of a half-dozen of the vital ingredients of Jesus Christ's message to the world. I could taining but the little that Jesus sald when he was tryin to make a Christian of Nicodemus: ‘God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son, that who- soever belleveth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.’ That gives to us the doctrine of God's unlimited love, hu- man guilt, the divinity of Christ, salvation through Christ, faith in Christ, immortal- ity—every word Saxon, three quarters of the words monosyllables, profound enough for any elder, simple enough for any four- year-old. “At any rate, we want a new creed. Amending this one will not meet the ne- cessities of the case. Better give it a dig- nified place in the museum, for what it is, than hack It to pleces and revamp it for what it is not.” e Trans-Mississippi Congress.
