The Rev. Richard B. Cook, D. D., pas
tor of the Second Baptist Church, this
city, has recently finished valuable
work that Is now published by r. H.
Woodward & Company, Baltimore, Md.
It is entitled "The Story Of Jesus" and
is pen picture of the life of our Saviour
from his birth until his ascension. The
story is told in delightful but deyout
manner, and Is In strict accordance with
chronological history of our Lord. 1t is
undenominational, and will be read with
interest by Catholics as well as Protes-
tan,s, as it is a book from which every
Christian can obtain vast amount of
Instruction. Tho manner In which the
story is told shows considerable research
on the part OF the writer, and It is so
fascinating that 1t will be eagerly reid by
boys and girls. 1t appeals TO the hearts
ii all classes and ages, and copy can
not but prove profitable in every home.
1t is sold only by subscription, and there
Is no doubt that ere long 1t will be In the
hands Of agents in this city.

GALVESTON, Tex, July H.-The sea-
board rate OF s2.52 per 100, first-class
freight, which went into effect yesterday
on the Fort Worth Road via Galveston
and the Gulf OF Mexico, will, 1t is said
be met to-day by a similar cut on all the
other trunk lines centering in Denver.
This latter rate is authorized by the
Transcontinental Association, and Will
apply to all roads affected by the Fort
Worth's action. Shipments may be made
by either lake and canal route, by the
gulf from Savanah,''or by Galveston and
the gulf, as deemeds expedient. The re,
duction, however, does not apply to all
rail routes.
1t is reported from New York that the
officials OF the Pacific Mall Steamship
Company have notified the Trsnsconti-
mental Association that unless the sub
sidy from railroads Is increased they will
cut rates and take all the freight they
can get. 1t Is thought that this is the
preliminary step to a war against the
Canadian Pacific Road.
The Pan Handle Road has announced
a reduction In passenger rates between
Chicago aud indianapolis, Louisville and
Cincinnati, to take effect to-day. The
regular rate Of s5 TO Indianapolio is re-
duced to IS. so; to Louisville the rate is
reduced from 50 to $5, and to Cincinnati
from S9, 80 to S5.

It Is now an assured fact that the
Academy Of Music will be rebuilt and
fitted up as arst-class place OF amuse-
ment J. d. Allen, the architect, brought
the plans from Philadelphia yesterday
morning, and proposals will be invited
at once. MIR. Allen is considered the
greatest theatrical architectin the United
States, and has furnished the plans Tor
nearly all the theatres In this country
that have been built or remodeled within
the past few yeare. The new plans pro-
vide for an entire change In the interior
of the b use, and the elevations are SO
arranged that there will not bs q seat
from which full view Of the stage can
not be obtained. The lower floor will be
on level with the street, doing away
with the steps which were formerly used.
This will cause 1t to be lowered about six
feet, and as the walls will be built six
feet higher, 1t will make q difference OF
twelve feet In the height of the building
from the floor TO the ceiling.
There will be parquet and dress
circle on the lower floor capable Of seat
ing GOO persons. On each side there will
be four lodges or private boxes. The
first balcony will seat 450 persons and
will have lodge In the front for the ex-
elusive use Of reporters. The second
balcony will seat about 500. In conse-
| Quence OF the Increased height Of the
building It will allow the ceilings Of the
balconies TO be two feet higher than they
formerly were, and this, with the i'm
proved methods Of ventilation which
will be introduced, will render the build
ing cool and comfortable even during the
warmest weather. The orchestra will
occupy place In front Of the stage, bu,
an orchestra pit will be constructed
underneath, where the musicians can be
placed 10 the event of the house being
crowded so that their place can be used
for spectators. The stage will be 32x3a
feet and the distance from the floor to the
ceiling will be 90 feet, allowing ample
room for the largest drops carried by any
company. The outside will be entirely
remodeled and have three large doors fol
entrance or exit
The balconies will be reached by easy
stairways on the east side Of the building,
and the ticket Office will be on the wes'
side. Workmen are now engaged In
digging down FIR the purpose Of lower
ing the floor and atfording space for th'
dressing rooms, which will be under the
auditorium. The entire interior will b
furnished in tie best manner, and tht
seats in the psrquet and circ.e up
holstered in the finest style. No pains ol
expense will be spared to make 1t tht
finest place of amusement In the city, ant
the work will be pushed forward al
rapidly as po.elble so as to have IL IL
readiness for the coming season. Th'
owners have already received severa
offers from prominent managers, wh'
wish to lease the house as soon as 10 I
completed.

Though there was nothing said about
the bonding Of city officials at the meet
ing of Council on Thursday night, the
subject since II has become stirred up,
continues to attract consider able atten-
tion. The Il ling ques'lon is, how can
officials bond II their bonds a'e to be en-
tered up on the county records against the
officials bondsmeni II tlis is required
to be done, Of course there are but few
who would consent to 90 upon bonds, as
1t eifectuslly ties up their property and
prohibits them from giving clear titles to
any sales OF property that they may
make.
Such action would efrectuslly bar out
all poor men from running for an Office as
they could not get bondsmen, and IT
would lead to electing none but rich men
to responsible offices, who would be able
to indemnify their bondsmeD.
II responsible bondsmen cannot be OBJ
tained one other alternative presents
itself, and that is to apply to a Philadel-
phia Trust and Security Company which
makes business Of bonding public and
private officials for certain percentage
upon either the amount Of bond required
or on tho amount OF money handled.
William L. Buck, recently Of this city
but now residing at Norwood Station,
Delaware county. represented an insur-
ance trust company Of this character.
The Security Trust and Safe Deposit
Company of this city has never yet en-
tered into this kind Of business, though
It has right to do so uIler Its charter.
Something Of this kind will no doubt
arise to meet the emergency created by
the stirring up Of this bond business.
| Vtar al tha haNaatu nf fha yNublto off1
cial seems to be the strongest security
the city hss. The bonds are good 10
case OF default not entered, II no Other
prior bonds are entered. But how easy
| 1t would be fol, q bsndsman II he fore
seen shortages to convey his property to
y mutual freIid TO hold In trust and the
city might.yhistle. for its money.
City Auditor J0hn NJ. Newell seemf
to think that there Is no great danger oi
the city losing from shortages II there
should happen to be any, even though
the security bonds be net entered up.
Most OF the money, he says, passes
through the hands OF the city tax collec-
tors, and once every day, sometimes
twice, they deposit the money they re.
ceive In bank and the bank official gives
q certificate TO ths collector, one TO the
city treasurer and one to the city audi
| tor.
These three receipts must all agree
and the city treasurer acts as q check
upon the collectors and the city auditor
Is Q check upon the city treasurer. After
all, however, the honesty Of the collec
tors is tie greatest security. They take
the money from the Teople, and 10 is in
the!r hands until It Is deposited in the
bank. The collectors can withhold
money II they want TO 90 So The city
treasurer, though supposed to DO tht
custodian OF the oity's money, really
never handles cent of It, nor eau bt
