Something Remember.

II you are going east, remember The
"ROck island Route" run the sleepers
and chair cars of their solid vestibule
train to and from the Omaha depot,
leaving Omaha at S:45 p. IN. thus avoid
ing the transfer at Council Bluffs. Three
free. Dining cars on all through trains.
Our trains make close connections with
all eastern limited trains connecting
in union depot at Chicago, avoiding a
transfer across the city to parties en-
route to New York, Boston and other
eastern cities, ''and everything little
better than other lines can Offer"

MR.. RlNGLE WITHDRAWS.
But Won't Say Why He Has Left the
Fairview Avenue Church.

But Won't Say Why He Has Left the
Fairview Avenue Church.
The withdrawal of Mr. Jacob Ringle
and his family from the Rev. Mr.. An
dreas' German Evangelical Church on
Fairview avenue has aroused no end of
talk in church circles. Mr.. Ringle had
been liberal contributor to this church.
and his family had been active in all
movements within it.
Rev. Mr.. Andreas sought Mr.. Ringle to
learn the occasion of the withdrawal,
and Mr.. Ringle would say only that he
was dissatisfied with the way things
went in the church. That, too, was all
he would sayto me when / enquired for
particulars last evening.
A lady member of the church said, how
ever, that the return of Mr.. Wersebe to
the fold is thought to have had something
to do with Mr.. Ringles retirement Three
years ago, when Wersebe was treasurer
and Ringle trustee, there was dispute
about 500 of church funds, Mr., Wersebe
paid it, and then withdrew. But he Is
now back.
.'You know, too," the lady went on,
"that the Ladies' Verein gave a little
supper a few weeks ago. AT the close OF
the supper we presented Mr.. Andreas.
our pastor, with a gold watch. Most OF
the money was raised by private contrl-
button
I'VE lacked few dollars to make up
the amount desired, which we took from
our society fund. I do not think Mr..
Ringle was in favor of the movement,
nor do | believe that he contributed to-
wards the fund. heard that he did not
like the action of the members in the
matter.
'Then again, we had fair and supper a
week or two ago. 1t was great success.
The church cleared over 5000, above ex-
penses. During the fair, which lasted
three evenings, young Mrs. Ringle
had some difficulty with the Pres1-
dent of the Verim about
book in which subscription for an
article to be disposed of by chance were
being solicited. It seems, too. that Mrs.
Ringle purchased an article for a dollar,
sold by mistake, / believe, which was
marked at $1.75. They insisted that If she
kept the article she must pay the adj
ditional rs cents. There was another
tilt of similar nature. Mrs. Ringle, |
heard, considered that she had been
grossly insulted She has not been to
church since, and / have an idea that
these circumstances have had something
to do with the retirement Of Mr.. Ringle
and his family

AGAINST THE MUTUAL AID.
Advising Railroad Men to Stand by the
Labor Organization.

Advising Railroad Men to Stand by the
Labor Organization.
The Hudson County Association of Sur
face Railroad Employees gathered in good
numbers at Masonic Hall, corner of Ber-
gen and Fairmount avenues, last night,
despite the unpleasant weather. 1t was
an open meeting to advocate the princi-
pies of the association.
President Joseph Fullem briefly stated
the objects sought by the meeting and
called attention to the fact that the asso-
citation was not only protective but benev-
olent. Five dollars week was paid to
sick members ana 500 at death.
John w. Jakeway said when the rail
road companies conceived the Mutual Aid
Society the purpose was to break up the
union of the railroad men. just as soon
as they got all present out of this organ
ization into their own the bosses OF the
companies would try to get back what
they had laid out. In Boston the railroad
companies had succeeded by a Mutual
Aid Society in breaking up the labor or
ganization of the men and then increased
their hours of labor. The next step OF
these people would be to get rid of the law
which protected the railroad men.
Edwin Dickson understood there were
200 members on the roll book, but some
of these had lost interest in the work.
Let a revival be the outcome of the pres
ent meeting.
j. Knerr said if the officials of the rail
road companies gained the upper hand
and wrecked labor organizations through

Threw Away.
The large auditorium of the Tabernacle
Congregational Church was crowded to
the doors last evening by an audience
that assembled to witness the exercises of
the seventh anniversary of Local Branch
No. l25, Order of the Iron Hall.
A splendidly arranged programme was
successfully carried out. The talent in
cluded such well known artists as Miss
Emma Weaver, whose violin solo fairly
enchanted her listeners; Miss Jennie
Wade Hall, whose soprano solos were
matchless; Miss Edith Pond, clever elo-
cutionist; Prof. Thomas Dawson, the
magic bird imitator; aud Prof 4. K.
Seaiey, organist.
Chief Justice A. w. Southard gave a
brief historic sketch of the Branch's

THE GREAT TUNNEL.

How the Work Is Progressing in the Big

Work upon this great tunnel, which is
to connect Jersey City and New York, has
been going on sSeadily since last May
when it was resumed on the proceeds OF
81 500 600 OF bonds negotiated In England.
the tunnel has been pushed ahead about
three hundred feet at The Jersey end since
that time. About two hundredmen have
been and still are employed and work
goes on day and night. The entire dis
tance eXcavated at the Jersey end is now
1850 feet. At the New York end work
has not vet been resumed, but prepara-
tionS for its resumption are under way.
About three hundred feet at this end
have been eXcayated OF the entire $500
feet between the New YORK and New Jer-
sey shafts, therefore, about 1850 feet have
been eXcayated, or little more than
half.
The approaches to the tunnel will each
be about three-quarters of mile long,
and nothing has yet been done toward
construction. The tunnel is about sixty
feet below the surface of the river.
Recently contract has been entered into
with English parties for completing the
tunnel between the shafts. These parties
expect to do the work in year. But
their method is different from that which
has been followed, and is regarded as in
some respects experimental. Colonel d.
c. Haskin said yesterday that there were
so many contingencies in the contract
that would vary the amount the con
tractors are to receive that he preferred
not to attempt to state it.
