MINISTERS ARE COMING. Lutheran Synod to Convene in Abilene Tomorrow. The Evangelical Lutheran synod of Kansas will convene in Trinity Luth- eran church 011 tomorrow evening.

It represents only the English branch of the church and numbers about tifty ministers. Rev. W. F. Rentz, Atchison, is president.

He is pastor of a church and Hebrew professor in the Western Theological Seminary. He will preach the synodical sermon, the services beginning at 7:30 p. m. After the sermon the synod will celebrate the Lord's Supper. There is no better way for a synod to begin its important work than first to commune with the Divine Master in the ordinance of His own appointment.

A very pleasant and profitable session of synod is anticipated. Much of the business will be of a routine character, such as reports of work done by pastors, churches and mis. sionaries. In the evenings addresses will be delivered on missionary and educational subjects. On Saturday evening there will be a young people's rally which will be addressed by Rev.

A. E. Wagner, Topeka. But all subjects and speakers will be announced from day to day. Prominent among the clergy of the Kansas synod is Rev.

Geo. A. Bowers, D. once pastor of the church in Abilene. Many cherish with delight the "old man eloquent," pungent and powerful, and will be glad of the opportunity to hear him again on next Sunday morning in Trinity Lutheran church.

Among those of younger years who have been called to positions of great responsibility is Rev. F. D. Altman, recently chosen president of the Western Theological Seminary at Atchison. Almost his entire ministry has been in this synod.

He was president of the board of directors of Mid. land college until called to his present position. He is a man of fine intellectual power, good social qualities, and possesses a happy combination of those elements that make up a noble manhood. He is more than a gentleman: he is a man--just such a man as is needed to be a guide and an inspiration to the young men who are to occupy most of our pulpits in this Western country. He is the guest of the Central hotel.

For classic scholarship there is no man in synod superior to Prof. J. H. Stough, Ph. of Midland college.

When a boy of twelve, years he was familiar with Rollin's Ancient History. As a college student he was noted for his proficiency in classic studies. By nature he is a student, in ability to grasp a subject and utilize it for practical purposes he has very few superiors any where. He has been called Joseph Cook of the Western Lutheran church." He will be the guest of Mr. and Mrs.

W. H. Barber. Then there is the Rev. J.

M. Cromer, vigorous in thought, energetic in action, hailing from Kansas City, where, for more than a decade of years, he has been doing an excellent work as pastor of the First English Lutheran church. He is an enthusiastic advocate of illustrated sermons. He likes to make people see things as well as believe truths. The Lutheran church says, Believe; the Reformed church says, Reason: the Roman church says, See; but Rev.

Mr. Cromer says, Believe, Reason and with his lantern, puts emphasis on See. This does not mean, however, that he is Romanizing. He will be entertained by Mr. and Mrs.

A. Zahner. In these pen-touches of our outlook, Rev. A. E.

Wagner, of Topeka, comes along as one whom we delight to see and to hear, He is a faithful student of the Word, author of Normal Bible Lessons, and is doing 8 grand work in our capital city. His home will be with Mr. and Mrs. F. B.

Bearce. But time would fail me to touch with my pen all the worthy men who are coming into our midst this week. Will just note that from beyond the bounds of this synod will come Rev. H. L.

Yarger, western secretary of the board of church extension, whose home will be with T. E. Dewey, Vine street. And of course the Rev. S.

B. Barnitz, D. western secretary of the board of home missions, with us a day or two, No other man in all the church travels as many miles a year, or does more good tongue and pen work than he. His voice will be heard telling of opportunity, of duty, of sorrows and of joys and of blessings in the work of the Master. He will spend next Sunday with us and probably preach for: the Presbyterians in the evening, To all these men who come among us in the spirit and name of the good Master, I am quite sure that I but echo the voice of all the good people Abilene when I'say WELCOME.

H. C. Harrucox. Wonderful are the cures acco plished by Hood's Sarsaparilla and yet it is only because Hood's. Sarsap: arilla, the one true blood purifier, makes pure, rich.

healthy blood. Hood's Pills for the liver and bowels, act easily, yet promptly and efficiently. REV. DECHANT GOES EAST. A Popular Abilene Pastor Receives a Higher Call.

It was with regret that the congregation of the Grace Reformed church yesterday received and accepted the resignation of its talented and popu: lar pastor, Rev. A. S. Dechant, A. who has been in charge of the church for the past live years.

His resignation takes effect December 1st at which time he will go east to accept a call to a higher appointment. He is considering the pastorates at Waynesboro, and a new church in Baltimore -his decision will be reached this week. Rev. Mr. Dechant's ministry here has been exceptionally successful.

He came here to find a church $2,700 in debt; he leaves with $1,600 of that debt paid, every benevolence paid up and the church building newly repaired and the work paid for. No Reformed church west of the Mississippi has made a better comparative record than the Abilene charge under Mr. Dechant's care. The Enterprise church of which he has also had charge has, too, made good progress. Mr.

Dechant and his accomplished wife have made hosts of friends in the city and county. They will Le missed not not only from the religious but the literary and social circles of the city. While regretting exceedingly to see them leave we rejoice at the promotion that has come to the earnest and talented young pastor and predict that he will yet stand in the front rank of ministers of his denomination. TONGUE FELL DOWN. Two North Dickinson Farmers Are Hurt.

While going home from town Saturday evening Messrs. Bert Austin and J. R. Tilton had a serious accident. Going down the hill by Wm.

Nixon's the harness on the team broke, letting the tongue down in some way and both men were thrown out. Mr. Austin received severe wounds on the head, which it was feared at first might be dangerous, but now are being healed satisfactorily. Mr. Tilton was bruised somewhat but not seriously hurt.

The two gentlemen had 3 narrow escape. Bicycle lamps, 75 cents at Hodge Bros'. 141-3 GARFIELD. Andy Sherick, and wife rejoice over a new son, and Mr. and Mrs.

American Investments, the ablest 28 well as the most accurate prophet among monthly investment magazines, says in its October number, referring to the low prices for lots at the Lebold sale: town addition lots are about down to nothing in Kansas. Should it ever occur that a reaction would set in, present ers will make a gob of money." Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deaf ness, and that is 1 by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have sound or imperfect hearing, a rumbling and when it is entirely closed ness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY Toledo, 0.

Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. The New "Standard." We take pleasure in commending to the readers of this paper the new Standard dictionary, published by the Funk Wagnalls of New York. This is the latest and best of dictionaries. Its vocabulary contains 865 words and phrases which is more the combined vocabularies of Worcester and Webster and 76,000 more than that of the "Century in six volumes. Etymologically it is scholarly and full; in literary terms and in fact in every essential which goes to make such work valuable it exceeds all it predecessors.

Perhaps the greatest mead of praise of bestowed upon the work is contained in an extract from Geo. W. Smalley's London correspondence to the New York Tribune, which says Standard dictionary is the only book published in America during my stay in London which has received the unanimous endorsement of the English critics." From now until January 1-1 special terms will be given to introduce the work. For particulars address ADAM DINGWALL. Co 109 S.
