A TIMELY SUGGESTION.

A Tendency of the Present Age.
An untimely end is usually attained by
poor time keeper. Such an article is
productive of wrath and WEAKNESS of the
flesh. Said George Il. Ford, of the George
b. Ford company, last evening in refer
ence to watches: "a good watch is good
investment; a poor watch an annoyance
and failure, expensive and aggravating.
The tendency of the day is to precipitate
upon a coniding public cheap watches
made by unskilful hands and sold by those
who know 1ess about them than the
wearer."
The George q. Ford company is famous
for its accurate study and knowledge of
fine watches, and watch or clock from
this house will prove of lasting value to
the purchaser. Their stock extends from

AT the Murphy Meetins-A Large Au-
dience at Davenport Church-Fran. |
els Murphy VIII be Present To. |
Night and Address the Meeting.
The fact that Everybody is busy now |
preparing for Christmas did not keep the
crowd from Mr. Murphy's temperance
meeting last night at Davenport church.
A large audience gathered there at an
early hour.
On the platform was q number of re-
formed men who, with others in the audi
ence who have been reached and saved by
the Murphy movement, gave glorious tes-
timony concerning their reformation.
Rev. I @. Meserve in a brief but earnest
| address spoke in warm commendation of
the good work, and expressed his pleasure
at the results which are accruing there
from.
Mr.. Frank D. Ludington and Captain
Lovejoy interested and pleased the audi
ence by their words of approval of the
work of reform.
Mr.. Charles A. Baldwin, who has at
tended every meeting and given his aid
ring temperance appeal.
Mr.. Murphy's address last night abound
ed in thought and rhetoric, and as he
graphically and powerfully drew picture
after picture to illustrate his argument his
hearers were carried along and swayed by
his Wonderful eloquence. Mr.. Murphy has
many qualities which remind those who
hear him of John B. Cough. He is pos
sessed of voice Of great compass and
hexibility, and his varying facial express
sions, as he changes from intense denunci.
alton of wrongs perpetrated by the victim
; of strong drink to compassion and tender
ness for the wife or little children who
are made to suffer in consequence
are intensely dramatic and effective.
He is also capital story telle,
and in this respect has no superior. In 9
, vivid description of an eventful battle in
the late civil war, when the very life of the
J nation was at stake and the union forces
had been repulsed, he pictured in marvel
GUS colors and the brightest dramatic skill
:; | the famous ride of Sheridan and the grand
victory which followed. The illustration
q | was given to show what influence one mar
: possesses when he is aroused to sense o.
his duty and privilege.
The singing last night was excellent, ant
words of praise were freely spoken con
s corning the fine choir at Davenport church
: The invitation was extended for sigma
q lures and as q result many cam
8 forward and signed the pledg
;, and put on the blue ribbon. During tn
: evening Mr.. Murphy received telegram
from his father, Francis Murphy, that tn
latter would be in this city to day and b

S church. This will be glad news to man,
d who desired to zee and hear him las
