Rev. George NJ. smtth's Sermon on
"FOur Faces

George NJ Smith, pastor of Hall-pace
M. e. Church, yesterday morning preached
on -Four Faces" His text was from Eek

side, and they four had the face of an OK
on the left side; they four also had the
face of an eagle"

the lonely banks of the River Chebar," said
the minister; coming out of the north he
saw whirlwind. cloud an Unfolding fire
and a radiant brightness encircling ALL
Coming from the midst of these he saw
four living creatures and they each one had
the face of u man. the face of lion, the
race of an OK and the face of an eagle. Each
face had a significance, the correct inter-
probation of which would give us Gods
idea of a Christian. The face of man in

and sympathy. The Christian should be in
teigent, he should be a Bible student a
reader of good books and papers and a
close observer of men. Not in business or
any profession or pursuit in life is there a
greater demand for intelligence than in the
church. In former times many good people
thought that when a man had failed in
everything else he was good material out
of which TO make d preacher. Conditions
to meet the demands which the church is
making upon the ministry to-day unless
ne has ability *, to succeed In almost any
demands intelligence in both the pulpit and
pew. The Christian should not only have
brain, but he should have a heart He
should be sympathetic.

sympathies will be abused. | estimate that
nine-tenths of the Migrants who are going

person in any station in life but who feels
the need of the warm touch of human SYM

LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. 5-The Lansing
Theater, the leading playhouse Of the city,
was this morning before daylight disman-
tied of part of its furnishings, almost a
riot accompanying the work, and as re-
suit j. F. Lansing, late half owner, L. G.
Burr and Roscoe Pound, his attorneys, and
q score of laborerS were to-day arrested.
The trouble is the outcome of the sale of
the property under foreclosure a week ago.
Mr.. Lansing claimed there was conspiracy
to defraud him of part of his holdings. The
District Court, however, confirmed Tire sale
on Saturday and declared the title vested
in the purchaser, William Oliver, of New
York. This morning the rival claimants and
their adherents had a personal collision
been called.

The press agent tells the following heroic
incident OF Magician Kellar en- route from
Valparaiso to Montevideo via the Strait
of Magellan in February 1876. The steamer
on which he was passenger stopped for
coal at Punta Arenas. the extreme southern
point Of Patagonia, where a Chilean penal
settlement is maintained. Mr.. Kellar was
the guest of the commandant for the day,
and as considerable trouble had been
caused by unruly natives ne was asked to
do something to brighten them and to cause
them to obey the commands of the author
tiles. Accordingly, after dinner, he called
several score OF them about the station and
amused them with simple tricks in magic.
Just as he was about to conclude he an
nounced in voice of anger that If further
acts of lawlessness occurred he would burn
up the earth. As he spoke he touched the
sand at his feet with his wand and sheet
Of flame sprang up, which so frightened the
natives that they fled in terror. The trick
was simple. A quantity of white sugar and
chlorate Of potash had been secreted in the
sand by an assistant during the forenoon.
Tho wand was hollow and contained sui
phuric acid. The combination of the latter
with the two former caused the flame, but
to the ignorant natives. of course, it APP
peared supernatural.

In the month of November over 5000
horses were sold at the two auction sale
stables in close proximity to the stock
yards, the sales occurring on Tuesday and
Wednesday of each week. OF the horses
sold 2,342 were shipped in here, and between
600 and 200 driven in from the surrounding
country. Mr.. Blair of the firm of Blair g.
Baker. predicts that within the next two
years Indianapolis is to have the prominence
of being the largest horse market IN the
United States. 1t is quite certain that two
large concerns are to purchase ground and
erect large sales stables thereon and posi-
bly, third within the next twelve months,
and all are firms that have ample means
and will go into the business a large
scale. The large number of export buyers
now ON this market, and the still larger
number of Eastern and Southern buyers
who are here at the weekly sales, has at
tracted the attention of the firms who con-
templated locating here, and it is more than
probable that the predictions of Mr.. Blair,
one of the founders of the auction sales,
will be realized

HOG-KILLING HIGH MARK
INDIANAPOLIS PACKERS ECLIPSING
ALL FORMER RECORDS.
Cattle Slaughter Equally as Great
Increase i'm Stock Yards Business
The Horse Market.

The Indianapolis packing houses begin the
winter killing season in a manner which in
dicates that in the coming year all former
records are to be eclipsed. In the month
of November there were killed at the In
dianapolis packing houses 10000 hogs, $4,000
more than in November, 1896, and the month
of December bids fair to exceed this record
as Kingan & Co. are now killing 5000 to $500
hogs daily, the Moore packing house 1000 to
/, 200 daily, Coffin & Fletcher 800 to 1,00O the
indianapolis Abattoir Company 800 to 400,
the Gardner abattoir 200 to 300, so that
among them all 5000 to 5000 hogs are being
killed at Indianapolis every day. At the
seventeen Western points that report the
number of hogs killed in the month Of No
vember, 1850, 900 hogs were killed, against
1Ss5,OO0 in November, 1896; increase this
year, 565OOO.
Indianapolis packing houses are now kill
ing more cattle than at any former period
Kingan & Co. killing from 800 to 500 head
day if they can get them. AT the Indian
apolis abattoir $50 to 300 head are now
killed day, and at the Gardner abattoir
$50 to 200 head. All three of these estab-
lishments, besides furnishing beef for this
market, are shipping dressed meats to a
larger extent than ever before.
