At tie regular meeting on Monday
the County Commissioners established
q new voting precinct at Soldiers graves,
in I'D Clark county, now Dodge town
shin. The county was also subdivided
into commissioner districts. the irst or
Dodge district taking in the territory
six niles east. six miles west. and six
miles south IF Dodge. running north to
the county line Commencing at the
center of this district on the south
line running from that point south to
south line of the county divides the
balance of the territory into districts
two and three. the eastern or Sreare-
vile district being No. 3. and the west
or Cimarron and Crooked Greek district
being No. 3. This makes rather un-
wieldy districts. but it was probably as
good a division as could have been
made. and is. in the main. satisfactory.

RELIGIOUS NOTES.

Rev. A. P. George goes to Spearc
vile next Sunday.
The Methodist Sunday school has
supplied itself with new lesson leaves.
Rev. j. F. Tooker, of Speareville,
will preach in the Union church next
Sunday.
The Catholics are expecting con-
frmation soon, the bishop coming for
that purpose.
The camp-meeting on the Sawlog
is expected to commence today, lasting
over Sunday.
A colored minister, whose name
we did not learn, held forth at the Un-
ion church last Saturday.
An effort is being made by the
Presbyterians to secure the services of
Rev. Mr.. Thompson, late of Larned, as
their pastor.
Rev. Mr.. Tooker, Of the Presbyte-
rian church, will preach at the Union
church next Sunday morning at eleven
o clock. He will organize congrega-
tional society if sufficient encourage
ment is gwen.
Why cannot the churches unite on
uniform "eyening of prayer and let
it be generally observed? Half a dozen
church bells on one night in the week
will sound better than one bell every
night.
Elder Collins preached at the Pres
oyterian church as usual last Sunday
morning and evening. At the close of
the evening service he announced that,
as he could not be present and had been
unable to secure any one to fill his pull
pit, there would be no services in that

The New York Mail and Express holds
that the expected receipts from the Brook
lyn bridge will be nothing like so large as
has been estimated. 1t saws the total
number Of persons crossing the four fer
ries per day Is not quite 10000, and it
would be absurd to suppose that the
bridge Will receive an amount of traffic
equal to that of all the ferries combined.
1t says that if by means of rapid transit
the bridge accommodates 100000 persons
per day the result will be wonderful.
The total number of persons crossing
Westminster, Charing Cross and Water
loo bridges, London, is not quite 100000
each day, and certainly, says this paper,
the Brooklyn bridge ought not to be ex-
pected 10 secure a trafiic greater than
that Of these three great structures COM
bined. In order to make its annual in
come $1,000, 600 the bridge would have to
receive traffic amounting to 100000 per-
sons per day.
