Wbat Yitttors Ssjof Fort Scott. Mr. Rice, of the Emporia Hcwg, spent two or three days in Ft. Scott during the recent session of the Methodist Conference and the following are among his impressions of the town as recorded- in the News: At 1 o'clock on Saturday morning we again took the train Tor ocott. Two hours ride, and we.

leave the train for the Wilder House at the Fort. We were furnshed here with a good bed, which we enjoyed until 7 a. m. The miserable headache wjiich went to bed with us was lost in dream land, and we awoke ready for "hash." After breakfast we proceeded through a drizzling rain to the M. E.

church, which was full of preach era in attendaneeon the first session of the Southern Kansas Conference. There were about eighty present, the most of whom were anxious to make a little history by way of laying foundation stones. Hence the speakists were very prominent. The first session will be noted for many speeches. Not having any special business of our own we spent the most of our time in visiting among the preachers, and some of our old friends in the city.

We had a good time vis iting and eating. Tbe people of Ft, Scott live on the fat of the land. The almost unceasing drizzle prevented our doing the city thorough ly. We visited the Monitor, omce, where we found everything lively and in good trim. Mr.

Lockerby is working hard to make the Monitor what it is. a good paper. We also visited the foundry, where we found G. A. Crawford, the business nailer.

When it comes to business he is just about as big a man, for his size, as you can nna any wnere. Tbe Crusade. The following letter, to the ladies of this city engaged in the temperance movement, containing valuable suggestions and advice, is pub lished by request Oswego, Kas, March 18, 1874. Dear Sistkbs I have, through brother Orwig. heard with great interest of the beginning of your movement to do what you can to stop the destruction caused by the demon of intemperance.

I pray for your success, and I feel assured that your labors will not be in vain in the Lord. Iu order to reach the fullest mea sure of success you know it will be necessary for you to be of one mind and heart in the Lord, and as day after day you plead with Him alone and together for ills guidance and help, I cannot but trust that by that peace or mind, that passes ail understanding, He will give you assurance that He is with you always. Will you permit me to make some suggestions which may possibly be of some value to some or you 1. Possess your minds fully with tbe conviction that it is a move ment of the Lord against the king dom of darkness, to save all that can be saved, before He comes with judgment to destroy the incorri eible. 2.

Remember that entreaty in connection with humility and bene volence is the mightiest influence in the universe, even Almighty Power yields to it. Think often of the success of the woman of Syro- phenia and of Jacob before tbe Lord and afterwards his offended brother. Ponder well John 12:47. So let no word of threatening escape your hps. Henry Martyn, in dealing with enraged heathen, said he found the power of gentleness "ir resistible." Leave to other agentsr that with out doubt are appointed by the Lord, to do that work, the.

whole work of authoritative dealing with evildoers. 3. Appoint on your committees onlv sisters that repent or sin and take Jesus Christ for their Lord and Savior. 3. Begin and end each: day's movement with much prayer, apart as well as together.

5. Read 1 Cor. 13 chap.aty and the gospel of John not a little. 6. Get as many temperanee ser mon preached as you can, especially on Sabbath 7.

At the temperance headquarters where you daily meet for prayer, secure as good a temperance library as possible. 8. Let the appeals mat are reaa day by day be preserved. Remem ber isi-o ana y. vo me upmost what prayer, persuasion and patience will accomplish.

a. whilst you nope ior mucn, oe thankful for a little succets. In everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God and the peace of God that passeth all understanding snail keep your minds and hearts through Christ Jesus. Fraternally, Jb A. ARMSTRONG.

and The' temperance lad ies yesterday afternoon, after a preliminary meet Ihgat the Baptist Church which was very largely attended, made another street demonstration. The volunteer band for this part of the work showed an increase on lormer day i and numbered 21 crusaaea Th" iadieii marched In double file up Seott avenue to Wall street Head of column to the left, and tne feminine moved briskly nn Wall street to the whiskey re doubt known as the Capitol Saloon tho Mhf of the first attack of this campaign, but which still holds nut. the trarrison claiming; to nave supplies' for the most prolongea siege. The ladies this time found the doors -closed against them, but equal to all the exigencies of rye- visaged war, they encamped on the Main strest pavement in the very front of the enemy. The passage of the ladies up Wall street had been noted by laree numbers on the look out for their appear ance and: a lartre crowd of men speedily surrounded them.

Services were commenced by Mrs. Dr. Garwood by reading selections from the Bible, after which a hymn was sung. Miss Way then offered a fervent prayer.petitioning for the conversion of the drunkard and the rumseller and asking that 11 the pray ers and entreaties of the ladles failed to prevail with the liauor sellers, that their business might be closed and they be removed out of the way. The crowd were camDarativel quiet and or derly and with a single exception there were no boisterous demon strations on the part of the specta tors.

A hvmn was suntr, and the ladies took ud the line of march across the street, pausing in front of Hen ry's lunch rooms, a stronghold of of the that had already resisted two "vigorous attacks, Here they were also refused admit tance and formed in open order, one rank ranged along the sidewalk and the other on the outer edge of the pavement. The same order ofjexercises was observed. Passages of scripture were read by Mrs. Gar wood ind a nmror hy Mrs. Knowles, hymns alternating the reading and praying.

The crowd was larger here than at the Capitol, and the efforts of the.po- Hoe were necessary to keep a passage wav oten alone the sidewalk. Bat er a one person, the same who had been previously quite demonstrative. seemed disposed to interfere with or lhterruptrthe ladies in theis exer ciseaf? His conduct was so rude that the police found it necessary to interfere. Miss Way attempted some remarks in justification of the course of the ladies, buttheturbu lence of the crowd excited by the above mentioned disturbance forc ed her to desist. 7 The ladies then withdrew, falling back in good order upon the Meth odist church.

They do not seem at all disheartened by any annarent Want of success. Their number has increased each day since the oreniner raid on the I Deacon's free lunch, and their in tention is to "fisrht it out on this Une if it takes all summer," or even longer.

Pearce then asked Amend if he had been dreulatinir reports to ef fect that" he abused his wife and child. said, that he had not, bat sthat the same was true. Pearce told him to take the state ment back or 'Hake present Ids a revolver. Amend refused to fetract, when Pearce discharged two barrels of his revolver at him, both balls 'lafclng, "effect in. the breast, near the hear t.

The parties Were but a few feet apart and the first" ball passed entirely through Amend's body and into the; store. This occurred about 2 o'clock in the afternoon and Amend lingered fn great agony- for "four or nve liours wnen he died.
