A MIDNIGHT PICTURE.

Professor n. Baldwin & Son, the pho
tographers, assisted by William Willard
Howard, took a lash-light picture of the
EAGLE sanctum the other evening, an
eight by ten inch copy of which reaches US
with the compliments of Baldwin d Son.
The process is on dry plate and is used for
catching night assemblies, the interior OF
caves and dark scenes generally. The
professor and Mr. Howard came up into
the sanctum one night last week and after
adjusting their camera the curtains were
pulled down ard the lights all turned off.
When all was ready about a half tea
spoonful of preparation of magnetism
was touched by match which produced
a fash of light as brilliant as
lightning and as sudden. Every object
covered by the Tense of the camera was
left on the negative, We read of an artist
down east who secreted himself in an or
gan loft with fash light camera to catch
a bridal party and the ceremony. Just as
the bride took the gTooms hand before the
altar the organ loft artist let. go his flash
light. Everybody thought they had been
struck by lightning except the bride, who
thought nothing but just keeled over in a
dead faint. She wasn't prepared, or hadn't
expected that matrimony and its effects
were so sudden. The operation is indeed
very dazzling and little trying to the
nerves of even those fully posted as to
what is coming.

BUILDING SCHEME.

A representative of an eastern loan COM
pany is in the city figuring with one of
the leading real estate owners on a scheme
that is likely to result in the building of a
number of houses in a certain part of the
city. The scheme was suggested by the
fact that a number Of parties have applied
TO purchase lots and have the money to
pay for the lots but not enough to build a
residence on the same This fact causes
the real estate man to figure with a loan
company for certain rate and terms for
those who wish to buy lots for residence
sites In this way they make the deal
complete by paying for the lots, then get a
loan on the lots for residence.
The agent who is in the city expresses
himself as well pleased with the city and
with the location of the property he has
under consideration and says he thinks
the arrangement being considered will re
suit in his company putting a large
amount of money in the city. He viii re-
main some days and possibly complete all
the arrangements for number of build
ings in that section of the city.

EVERYTHING LOVELY.

VIM. Kay, member of the Oklahoma
old soldiers colony, returned yesterday
and says the "stayers" are all nicely
located. Referring to the sensational rot
for street commerce only, that seven of
their number had fallen while defending
their rights, he stated that the members
of the colony would like to have per-
sonal interview with some of the collosal
grape vine liars who got up the fight. He
further stated that according to his best
information not man had been shot in a
fight anywhere in the territory. He says
the people there look upon such stuff as
intended to inJure the country and hence
each of them individually to a certain ex-
tent and cause their friends away from
there to be worried over their welfore.

DEACON C. V. JACOBS

The death of c. V. Jacobs, which occur
red May seventh must not pass without
remembrance of his manly upright life
| here amongst US. Though not resident
| of long standing yet friends learned to
trust and rely upon him with utter devo-
ton. His life since dwelling with us has
been marked by rare nobility of character.
For years he was staunch loyal member
of the Congregational church and when
uniting with the Olivet church of this city
his fellow members saw in him the ele-
ments of strength and loyalty equal to a
deaconship. He faithfully served in that
Office to the day of his last sad illness.
His untiring heart and hand has cheered
many ministers in their service of God and
humanity Truly q good soul has now
fallen with a face benevolently earnest
with CLEANS of brightness fitting over its
settled pensiveness. An eye mild and
penetrating as though looking through
the worlds vanity: a brow familiar with
high and lofty thoughts: a pilgrim
look as though walking by faith: these
words cannot picture To know him
was an Interpretation of many scriptures
describing hidden life" and walking
with God" The loom of time, with the
busy fingers of years, is ever weaving a
tapestry of many threads which make up
life's history. When these are exposed to
eternity's gaze there will be found few of
nobler pattern than our friend c. V. ia
cobs For few months before his de-
parture disease darkened his thoughts
and compelled his hands TO drop the
threads of earthly duties. AS one wakes
out of sleep and without thinking con-
tiuues the work of life, SO we may believe
that our friend has reunited the thread of
life with that which was dropped when
darkness fell upon him. Now he walks in
soft white light with kings and priests
above, and is entertained by
''All the saints above
In solemn troops and sweet societies
That sing and singing in their glory move,
And wipe the tears forever from his eyes"

A COURT INCIDENT

About two years ago it will be remem-
bered that Miss Lille Oliphant on days
acquaintance was married to soldier who
was on the roll as Robert Smith. He was
with company going south and who
camped north of the city few days
Yesterday morning Mrs. Smith was grant
ed a divorce on the ground of abandon
ment, and before leaving the court house
yesterday inquired how soon she could get
married. The answer was mot within
six months" This seemed to break her
heart and she went direct to the establish
ment in which her intended is employed,
and the two talked some time over the
"six months feature. She is decidedly
pretty brunette and apparently about

LOOKING THE scaoo1s OYER.

a member OF the school board commit
te on teachers and salaries said yesterday
that the protracted effort of visiting the
city schools has disclosed the fact that the
city has much better corps Of teachers
tnan the board had supposed before in
Yestigation. At no building had they
found any indication of bad government
and order and were perfectly satisfied that
the best of work is being done. As a re-
suit of the investigation the committee
would find 1t a comparatively easy task to
make up the list of teachers to recommend
the board for the next years corps.
A member Of the board expressed him
self upon the school building question
yesterday in very forcible manner. He
seemed to think that the new school law,
designed to bring relief, would be printed
in June, and the benefits it contains, If
there are any, could be fully realized. He
seemed to think the board would have
time to erect some buildings and cut down
some rent for school buildings next
year. 1t seemed to be his idea
that the city should 20 into the
BOND business to a considerable
extent, and in that way get ready for
some buildings. During the last year the
city has paid out over s., 900 in rent and he
seemed to think it would be business to
cut down'tha line of expense.
Another member of the board was seen
on the question and was of the opinion
the people Of the city would not vote for

people will consider that it's not much
business to vote the school building
bonds.
