Methodists of the Frontier.
Harrowing tales of the hardships en—
dured by thousands of Methodist preach-
ers in the rural regions were told at the
recent annual meeting of the General
Missionary Committee of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, held in Brooklyn,
when Bishop Andrews stood out against
certain appropriations for the support of
these preachers. Chaplain McCabe arose
in their defence, and he grew excited as
he described their poverty, their strug-
gles and the pressure of the times upon
them. More than 2,000 of them in the
\Vestern States-are compelled to support
themselves and their families upon a.
paltry salary of $300 a year. They are.
little better off than the cow‘s which feed
upon Wild weeds. They have been worse
off than ever this year, in many places,
especially where the crops were poor, the
blizzards fierce, and the drought destruc-
tive. In Nebraska, for example, they have
suffered painfully, and hardly less so in
some of the other Western States. It was,
indeed, a. grievous account which Chap
lain McCabe gave of their condition.
His statements were confirmed by Bishop
Benton, who declared that he could not
understand how these brave preachers
were able to live upon their salary, which,
in 85 cases known-to him, was but $382 a.
year. The Conference was touched by the
harrowing sketches given, and it resolved
to make the full appropriation asked
for in behalf of the poor Methodist
preachers. ~

PUMAS IN DEADLY CONFLICT.
Great Cats That Make a Battling Eight
When Evenly Matched.
“‘Pumas, and there’s going to, be a
fight,’ said our South American guide in
a whisper. When we caught sightof the
two animals they were crouching close to-
the ground, facing each other, in a small
space under some large trees. They were
the finest specimens of the puma I ever
saw.
“They were probably thirty feet apart,
and as they crouched there glaring at
each other they looked like giant. cats
about to spring on their prey. Pugilists
never sparred with greater caution than
did those big brutes. Their tails were
switching back and forth, and their eyes
were like balls of fire. Slowly they moved
around in a. circle, all the time cautiously
getting closer and closer together. It was
evident that each was waiting for the
other to make the first lead. For more
than ten minutes they watched and wait-
ed. The roaring and snarling we had
heard when they first met had ceased.
They made no sound now as they watched
for a chance to spring.
“Our own nerves were trembling under
the strain when at last the two great
beasts rose in the air at the same instant,
and, like catapults, came together witha
thud that; could have been heard 200
yards away. They dropped to the ground,
and for almost ten minutes all we could
make out was too great brown bodies
rolling over and over in the death strug-
gle. They made no outcry of any kind.
but every few seconds we could hear their
powerful jaws come together with a snap
like the closing of a well-oiled steel
trap. .
“Finally they began to weaken, and as
their struggles became less violent. we
could see that both of them Were covered
with blood, while their flesh was torn in
shreds. In five minutes more the fight
was over and the two giants of the forest
were stretched out at full length on the
ground, clasped in each other’s limbs,
. just as two playful kittens sometimes lie
down together. They struggled feebly a
little longer and then both of them lay
perfectly still. Both were dead when we
got to them, and I never saw animals so
torn to pieces. The entrails of both were
torn out and scattered over the ground
where they had fought, and in their necks
were great ragged holes, from which the
blood had flowed in streams while they
were still fighting. They each had a score
of wounds that would have killed any
animal with less tenacity of' 1ife.”——St.
Louis GlobeDemocrat.
A SMART WOMAN.
She Persuaded an Insurance Company
and Is Its Bustling Agent.
Women as insurance agents are certain-
ly an innovation in business life which
has not shown itself in every city, but
San Francisco boasts of one who success-
fully manages the woman’s department
of a life insurance company.
She is described as a “dainty bit of hu-
manity as delicate as Dresden china,”
and not at all on the order of the ad-
vanced women of the age. She also has
the honor of being the only woman in
that part Of the country who holds such
a place.
A few years ago she found it necessary
to depend upon her own resources for a
living, and became interested in the in-
surance business through the fact that
women were obliged to pay $5 a thousand
more than men for the insurance on their
lives. .
The injustice led her to seek a remedy,
and she looked up :statistics, consulted
business men and finally hit upon a plan
whereby sex need not be considered in
the proposition at all. She had a. long
struggle to bring the insurance company
around to her way of thinking, but she
ultimately convinced them of the feasi-
bility of her system. Woman’s unrelia-
bility in regard to telling her age, the
great risk of her husband’s putting her
out of the way for the money, her life is
worth, and, in fact. all objections which
militate against women as profitable sub-
. jects of" life insurance were promptly
abandoned by this company’s representa-
tives in acknowledgment of her good ar-
guments.
A woman’s department was created for
her and a. corps of female assistants who
receive the same rates as the‘men solicit-
ors, were put under her supervision.
LOWELL’S PRETTY DAUGHTER.
She Didn’t Inherit Her Father’b Genius
or His Tastes.
Mrs. Edward Burnett is the only daugh-
ter of the late James Russell Lowell. She
was a. very pretty, attractive young. girl,
much admired by the undergraduates at
Harvard, as well as by the large number
of people,whom her father’s fame brought
about them both. It was one of Miss
Lowell’s grievances that she was supposed
by all the acquaintances whom she made
to have the wit and wisdom of her parent.
It is a. stock story concerning her that
when she was asked, as she gfiierally Was,
“Do you care for poetry?” s e always re-
plied fiercely, “No, I hate it!"
V Kansas Wind.
“It do blow ‘ a little sometimes out in
Kansas,” said the man with the far-away
look that. comes to those who are accus-
tomed to gazing across broad prair-
ies. -
“Yes,” assented the fat man. '
“Yes. I remember oncet when it blow-
ed so hard that. I Couldn’t see the barn
