THE BETHEL REOPENING.
It Has Been Deferred Because of
an Injunction.

an Injunction.
Until within day or two it was eX-
pected that the new Bethel would open
yesterday, but delay has occurred in
the completion of the work owing to an
injunction having been served on the
managers by the Milwaukee road, that
has prevented them from continuing
for the present.
Speaking of the unfortunate delay,
Mi. Morgan said that they hoped to hear
that Judge Kelly had removed the in
junction early this morning. if before
that time they did not receive COM
munication from the road giving them
permission to continue the work, in
whiAl case he hoped to put all the men
he could use right 10 work again today.
After they resume it will be only about
four days until they will open the coffee
house. and little longer until the boat
will be ready for dodgers. They have
rooms that Will accommodate about 10
people. The boat will be heated by
steam and lighted by incandescent
light. The fund, Mr.. Morgan says, is
increasing in manner that is encour-
aging in these hard times, and has now
reached the sum OF $1,000.
The question OF whether the boat will
be fireproof is what has caused the
trouble, but tdis anxiety seems entirely
unwarranted, as the partitions are be-
ing walled up with sheet iron. as wei |
as the outside of the boat, and the floors
painted with non-inflammable paint. 1t
seems great pity that there should be
this delay just at the time when there
is so much need of the work that the
Bethel does, under the direction of Mr.
Morgan.

Because it is the most nourishing most

Lactated food has saved thousands of
infants from cholera infantum and fatal
diarrhea. 1t more closely resembles
mothers milk than any other food
known. Its basis is sugar of milk, which
is the basis of mothers milk. With it
