wsrrrrrisn r THE PEETSBUEd DESPATCH! TUESDAY, APRIL 5, 189a f JUST LIKE POLITICS. Lively Contest Anticipated in the Pittsburg Presbytery OVER THE ELECTION OF DELEGATES To the Meeting of the General AssemMy in Oregon Xext Month. TETISGTO BEEAK THE BEDSTONE SLATB ThePittsbnrs Presbytery will meet at "Wilkinshurg to-day, and while the session will dispose of considerable routine busi ness, the dignified ministers will indulge in at is expected to be a decidedly lively contest for delegates to the General As sembly, which meets in Oregon early in Mar. The Presbytery to-day will elect three ministers and three elders to represent the Pittsburg Presbytery, and with less than a half dozen exceptions every minister and elder in the organization has announced himself as a candidate for the proposed trip across the continent All the legitimate expenses of the delegates will be paid by a tax laid upon all the churches ot the nation, and the people of Portland, Ore., have already raised $40,000 to defray the expenses of the visiting churchmen. A Very Desirable Trip. The contemplated trip, therefor, is a most desirable one, and the con test for delegates has been for several weeks carried on with the skill of well trained politicians. Letters have been written and legitimate wires have been pulled by tho ambitious candidate', und Trhen tbev eet toeether to-day IS is ex pected that the campaign will be closed much after tne fashion of a political conven tion. The rivalry anions the candidates Is said to be enthely friendly, but a combina tion is hinted at that threatens to carry the dav. The contest for delegates to the General Assembly from the Allegheny Presbytery ts raid to be much the same as that among the Pittsburg brethren. The Allegheny Pres bytery, however, when it meets at Beaver on the 12th, will have the Rev. Baussman case to dispose of, which will likely attract more general attention than the election of delegates. Jlev. Baussman, who will be tried by the meeting for heresy.it was announced yester day w 111 make a v'gorous right for his posi tion and his belief. lie is admitted to be one of the brightest members of the Presbytery. He was educated for tho law, and it Is asserted by his school fellows that before he entered the ministry he was decidedly uncertain on -religion, and when he decided to become a minister he surprised all his acquaintances. In a letter to a Pittsburg Mend yesterday the Rochester minister announced that he would not bo turned down without a con test. Going After tho Slate. An amusing feature of the contest for del egates to the General Assembly developed recently at the meeting of the Redstone Presbytery, composed of Fayette, West moreland and part of Allegheny county. The people of those counties are politicians, pure and simple, and not lnlrequently they carry their politics into their chuiches. The contest for General Assembly delegates was Just as lively In that Presby tery as in tho other organization, and a special meeting was called some weeks ago to dispose of some church matters. Be fore the meeting adjourned the election of delegates was sprung upon the gathering and the little slate prepared by the minister ial bosses was carried through without a flaw. Considerable discontent manifested itself after the meeting, but no formal protest was entered. Last week, however, it was dls coered that the rules required that delegates to Wc General Assembly shall be elected at a regular meeting of the Presbytery and at a specified time before the meettnsr of the General Assembly. This rule nullifies the election of the delegates from that Presby tery and another set of delegates must be elected at the regular spilng meeting of the organization. Alreadv a lively campaign ts in progress in that Presbytery, and it is said an effort is being made to defeat those dele gates chosen at the snap convention. Withal it is clear that the Presbyterian mniSers in Western Pennsylvania are mix ing a little politics with their religion. Birmingham Motormen Complain. Tbemotormen on the Blrmlnsbam road are complaining ot the inconvenience they are subjected to by the people. They say many people congregate along the street an d when the car stops do not get on. Then there are other people who do not signal the cars to stop and fllo a complain because they do not get on. This is especially ag gravating from the fact that the mctorman, who makes 11 trips a day, has 231 regular stops, besides other ones where he is signaled. ..if wBB.

A man not a hundred miles from this city once upon a time was going along a road. At his girdle hung a purse that contained a few hundred dollars he had managed to save. Happening to meet a stranger ho addressed him thus: ".My dear friend, in what town shall I invest my money so that it will not only be perfectly safe, but in ci ease four fold?" "Follow your nose," said the stranger. "But which town?" "Follow your nose". The man In anger turned away, when the stranger called after him, "That's right; keep headed that way." "Why did you not tell me that in the first place?" "Be cause," said the diplomatic stranger, "there are so many towns hereabouts I did not know which one had Impressed you moat, but when I saw yon headed towards the new town of Aliqmppa, I knew it would please you to know that it Is the best Investment oa could make. It is a town that will be built on the strictest lines of honesty and lair dealing. I know the prices are so low that they cannot help but increase in value.
