COMMISSIONERS
wiring Of County Hospital May BC
Investigated,

Investigated.
The county commissioners held short
meeting yesterday noring and transacted
a small amount Of routine business.
II. s. Thomas who has been airing in the
| newspapers a grievance against the city cleo
trician, submitted a letter asking permis-
| sion to address the board on the subject OF
charges he had made against Mr.. Schurig
in a former letter in connection with the
/ wiring of the county hospital in which he
] stated that the wiring was not In compll-
ance with the specifications and that Schurig
had winked at the violation.
Williams moved that the request be
! granted but Kiorstead opposed such action,
saying the board had given the party a
| chance to come before 1t and make any
! statement he saw At. but he had not taken
advantage of 1t. The speaker said he did
| not think 1t was within the province of the
! board to furnish a hall and an audience be-
! fore which Thomas could air his grievance
against the city electrician.
Stenberg said he was in favor of full
| investigation of all Irregularities, but did not
| think the board should listen in public to
| random charges. He moved that Thomas
| be requested to submit in writing any
| charges he may have to make, and the
| board would then have something to act or.
| jenkins said that the letter written by
Thomas to the board and placed on file at
| the last session contained nothing but in
|
to base any investigation. He insisted that
| if the writer of the letter had any charges
| to make he should reduce them to writing
| and not compel the board to rely On verbal
| statements.
IL was finally decided to take from the
| files the first letter written by Thomls and
| refer both letters to the committee Uf the
| whole for consideration at special meeting
TO be held for the purpose at 10 o'clock Men
! day morninS.
Thomas l.. Hull submitted hie resignation

| A. E. Baldwin, eX-justce of the peace,

compromised with them on the condition
that they should kneel down with him
while he prayed God to smash their bust
ness and save their souls. The business
went to pieces in three months, and one
OF the men was converted.
Mr. MoOdy's description of Joseph of
Arlmathea, and the part which he played
towards the end of his career on earth
was extremely interesting. Although
spoken OF as A secret disciple, he said, his
confession was one of the grandest in his
tory Mr. Moody's description of the
scene in the sanhedrim when Joseph was
the only one VINO protested against the
sentence of death upon Christ was thrill
ing. He was "A man of wealth, power and
distinction. He knew that his action
would bring upon him loss of wealth and
power, social ostracism, that he would
be cast out of the sanhedrim and forbid
den 10 enter the temple and the syna-
gogues, and these results did undoubtedly
follow, yet he stood up for Christ. Not
only this. but when he heard of Christ's
death he went to Plate and boldly begged
the body. Then, after preparing for bur-
lal, he placed it in his own new sepulcher.
His was a grand confession and it has
been remem bered for 1900 years
Mr. Moody allowed his Imagination free
reign and gave a beautiful Imaginative
description of the death Of Joseph and his
reception in heaven. He closed by urging
confession upon all those who felt im-
pressed to do so, without delay
The inquiry meeting held afterwards at
the First Baptist church was very largely
attended. Many confessions were made
and much interest shown.
