STOPPING H WORK.
Injunction Threatened to Inter
fcrc with the Indian Geek
Improvement.

The city has undertaken a great task
IN attempting to widen and deepen Indian
creek, and to open up a ditch clear to
the river to let the surplus water and the
sewerage have an outlet. There are
many theories as to how and where the
work should BIO done, but having decided
on a plan, condemnations of land have
been made for a right Of way, aud ar.
rangements made for iauuing bonds to
pay for the work. While the city coun.
Gil has been trying to arrange the fnan.
cial part in Home legal and
satisfactory manner, there has
been much discomfort manifest among
some whose property lies adjacent to the
improvement. All of those whose prop.
erty has been condemned have appealed
from the award, and now an injunction
suit is threatened, the papers 10Y being
prepared. If an injunction ia made to
stick, preventing the opening of the
ditch, it will doubtless cause great trouble,
for the upper part of the work being done
there can no outlet be given, and there
will doubtless be great damage resulting,
and matters will be worse than If left as
originally. 1t is to be hoped that some
satisfactory adjustment of differences will
be reached, but the present outlook indi-
Gates a stormy season of legal contests.

MASONIC.


The following from the correspondence
report to the Grand Lodge of Kentucky, 10y
Brother j. W. Stanton, shows the current of
opinion on several topics:
"The moving principle of Masonry is
charity or love, and if man so far loses his
interest in the institution as TO desire to
sever his membership, We think the best plan
is, to let him go. Most men, when cocr-
cion is applied, become refractory and disa-
greeable, and the sooner Lodge is rid
of such members the better. But the
moment membership is severed the Brother
should be informed that he cannot claim the
rights and privileges of Masonry-such as
the right to visit the Lodge at such times as
suits his convenience, the right to Lodge as
sistance, Masonic burial; in fact, he loses all
the rights that are obtained by virtue of
afiliation, and retains none except the right
to expect assistance, when in want from
individual Masons. We want it to he under

utilization, but at the same time we are not
ready, nor can we conscientiously refuse
any member his right to withdraw his mem
bership when he desires to do So
"ro deny the Bible is to stamp the lie on
everything that he had said and done while
passing through our solemn ceremonies.
Did he submit to all these things because
he knew he could never be admitted to the
mysteries of Masonry without he did? If
SO, then he has proved traitor to his con-
science, and he is not worthy of our conf
dence. We believe that the stability of
Masonry has always been, and is now, due
to the mistaken belief in God, and the
authenticity of His word as taught in the
Bible, and should the time ever come

volume has the impress of the broadcast infor-
nation and most careful attention on every
page. This is the biography that received
the nestimable benefit Of the active coop

from the humble cradle to the present day,
and presents a striking contrasts to the

are wise will subscribe only for the authenic
Augusta edition,-the largest, cheapest,
handsomest and best. The steel-plate por-
traits of Blaine and Logan were engraved

to the caricatures which appear in the So

~lne greatest OF tnese Is charity
There is no word in the English language
which contains such depth and height of
meaning as the word charity. In its more
common signifcat on it is used to designate
that disposition of mind which invites to
almsgiving, and he is esteemed charita-
bic man who 'bestows his goods to feed the
poor" But the word is used in more
comprehensive and exalted sense in the
great light of Masonry. There we
read of giving all ones goods to
feed the poor without having charity.
Ho would be thought very charita-
bls man who should bestow all his
goods upon the poor, and as rue such
one would be possessed with this noble prin-
pie to a wonderful extent. But a man might
do this and yet be very unchartable. lie
might do it to increase his fame, in which
case he would be much more selfish than
charitable. He would lack that fervent
love of his fellow-beings which lies at the
foundation Of all true charity. And the
world affords many examples of this kind.
Instances are not rare where donations are
maue III II pOWpOuS manner, winch reveals
the animus of the donor.
And who has not known people to besuow
on strangers with great liberality, when n
true charity would have dictated the
bestowal of a small moiety, and the appro-
priating of the remainder upon destitute
family at home? But to appear generous in
the eyes of the world causes many to assume
the guise of charity, when they possess little
of its genuine spirit,
True charity is closely allied to disinter-
ested benevolence. 1t does not take time
to catechise the needy further than to know
whether they are worthy of confidence, or,
in other words, are not impostors. 1t asks
nothing about party issues or sectarianism.
1t knows no nationality, but regards the
race as the children of common parent,
and, Samaritan like, delights in binding mp
the wounds and caring for the needy, even
though their nationality be unknown. And
it heeds the calls of the destitute as quickly
when alone as when the multitude is present
to applaud. Indeed, true charity is modest
and retiring. 1t prefers that the left hand
should not know what is done by the right.

q biography Ol John n. Logan.
Lives orCIcyeIand and Hendricks.
The authorized pictorial ivcsor Cleveland

completion of Pictorial work comprising
the Lives of the Presidential Candid ties on
the Democratic ticket, written by the veteran
author, Col. Frank Triplctt. and published
by N. d. Thompson & Co., st. Louis, Mo-,
and New York. This work is sold through
agents exclusively. 1t is designed, not only
to serve the popular taste and want in CIV
ing, exclusively, the facts in the boyhood
and manhood of the Candidates-their pri-
vate Lives and Public Services-but to have
a more enduring interest then the ordinary
Campaign book. To this end the publishers
have engaged on the work a corps of skilled
designers and engravers to elegantly and
profusey illustrate the scenes and incidents
in the lives of these eminent men, now so
prominently before the people. Personal
anecdotes and "reminiscences will constitute
leading and certainly II most entertaining
and Instructive feature of this timely work.
Col. Trpletth has marked ability, and enjoys
especial distinction as Biographical writer.
While exhaustive in tae recital of facts, lis
powers of analysis, and his keen insight into
the philosophy of events and measures, give
him special prominence among American
writers of personal history. II is not too
