DANGER OF CHOLERA.
Tho Most Careliil l'feoitutlons Hliould bo
Made in Uvdrt Community
Nearly all the newspapers in tlieMis
sissippi valley are advising the people of
that section to take every possible by^ pre¬
caution against cholera. Step step
the cholera is creeping through South
America, gathering force as it marches.
Beginning in Buenos Ayres, by the latter
part of December it had crossed the Ar¬
gentine Republic and gained foothold in
Chili. In March it was ravaging the
state of Panama. Should the plague
reach the isthmus and Mexico, there will
be small hope of this section escaping,and
the floodgates of New Orleans once
passed, the Mississippi valley, and, in¬
deed, the whole country, may be inun¬
dated with the disease before there is
time to realize the danger.
A FUND MISSING.
Commotion was caused among the
members of the Clan-tia-Gftel in New
York and Brooklyn, by tile report that
one of the leading officers of the body
had gone away with $40,000 of the funds
of the society. It was stated that he was
a native of Kentucky, and receutly The went
to Brooklyn from Louisville. state¬
ment was also made that he had not de¬
faulted, but had gone on a secret mission
to England with the funds in his pos¬
session, which had been collected for the
purpose. The executive board of the
body lias tried to belonged keep the matter faction quiet.

in Pittsburg, when several of the camps
of the society withdrew on the ground
that they contributed their money, but
never had any reports showing what was

SENSATIONAL SCENE IN CHURCH.
Rev. to the W. Episcopal 0. Pearson preached COifiidil a ser- in
lhbn diocesan
Omaha, and said that attempts had been
made, in the nartie of the Catholicity, to
foist upon the church doctrine of
Christ hiriiself tiptffi the ttltar in the broad
Hliti wine. By those Whb fail to see that
if it were really true that Christ’s body
and blood were upon the altar, the wor¬
ship of them would be a blasphemous
denial of the incarnation and an idolatry
more awful than any that could be con¬
ceived. Rev. J. Williams, of St. Barna¬
bas Church, Omaha, withdrew, saying
the speaker had insulted members of the
congregation by branding as idolatrous
points of a belief held by them as the
most sacred features of religious life.
BELIEVE IN TIIK LAW,

the belief that it will result in relief to
the agricultural classes.

RECEIVED WITH BRICKBATS.
O’Brien The Irish Editor Seriously Assailed
at Kingston. Canada.
When Mr. O’Brien arrived at Kings¬

stepped out of the car at the station.
The party was driven to the Barnett
I ouse, where a crowd had collected,

crowds—all sympathizers—were
found gathered around the building and
alongside the walk. Not an opposing
voice was heard; not a suspicious or
rowdy-looking person was seen lurking in
any quarter. After the meeting had con¬
cluded, broken stones and cobble stones
then began flying like hail, women
screamed and general confusion reigned.
Brien “Ah, they’re at it again,” said Mr. O’¬
in a tone of mournful regret more
than of anger. “Yes, yes,” roared the
mob “there he is! Drag him out here
on the street; kill him! choke him!
tear him asunder,” and then almost burst
through Mr. O'Brien’s body guard, which
consisted of American special correspond
ents and local officials of the National
League. As the party doubled into
Wellington street, another shower ot
bricks and broken stones came crashing
through the crowd.
