During fhs present week Rorkmsn
from Chicago have bean engaged in
putting in glass ia ths new Methodist
Church on Third street. Ths glass 10
beautiful in design and finish, and viii,
We think, be regarded a. the 6nesi in
the State. 4 The colors are brilliant and
tAatsfuIly arranged, and the light shining
through the glass is mellowed to soft
and pleasant tint that is positively re.
freshing to the eyss. No part of ths
new building, TO our notion, is o more
complete success than the glass. -.
h We have heard no response as Jet to
ths communication which recently ap-
pssred in the Journal, relative to build
inga suitable room for the Mission Sab
bath School. We think our citizens
could invest their funds in no enterprise
that would be productive Of more good,
OF contribute more to the future pros
perity, intelligence and morality of the
people. Were fewer saloona and more
Sabbath Schools kept open ia our city on
Sunday. IL would be far better for its
reputation and prosperity.
