court has just rendered his decision in the
matter of the objections filed by citizens

amount of about $4,000 to be held III
trust for this city for the purposes of a
public library, etc. the net income of the
truSt to 20 10 the ttStator's widoW and
s0n during their natural lives. The con
Struction Of the will and other matters
connected with the trust estate have been
III litigation several years.
Last summer the city. n" heirs and the
trustees entered into an agreement to end
all litigation and to sell portion of the
trust estate. consisting of the homestead,
the proceeds of which sale We're to he
applied towards paying expenses incurred
IN repairing and improving the trust
property. The homestead sold for $1,000
and the trustees rendered a statement
of expenses amounting to S4,1l4.uI. This
was thought to bc III accordance with the
agreement.
Judge Grimm, however, holds the

expenses and permanent improvements
that may be properly paid from the pro-
ceedS of the homestead sale. The bal
aucc of the $1,000 he directs the trustees
To invest in Understanding securities for
the ultimate benefit of the city.
Judge Grimm also orders the trustees
to render to the court an exact state
mcut of all their transactions and di-
rccts that other expenses in controversy
be met by the sale of the life interest in
two pieces of property appraised at So
500, originally placed in the trust estate,
the dcyiscs of which the Supreme court
held could not be maintained by the city.

DENOUNCED SECRET SOCIETIES.

with Prayer Meetings.

Calumet. Mich. Jan. u.-ISpcciaI. i
Rev. :. T. Morris. pastor of the First
Congregational church. denounced secret
societies at the morning service last Sun
day iii unmiStakable words. The sermon
was delivered 10 Il large congregation and
has caused considerable feeling camong
those who differ with the gentleman on
the subject. When it is taken into con
sideration that there are no less than forty
secret societies i'll a town of this size
and that nearly every man in the city
belongs To one or more of them. To say
nothing of the women who belong in large
numbers to various orders. the matter has
more than ordinary meaning.
The preacher said that the denunciation
was prompted 10y the fact that Il lady
member of the congregation had come To
him and asked him to change the night
of the church prayer meeting SO that she
could attend. as under the present ar
rangement the lodge meeting came on the
same evening when the prayer meeting
was held and therefore she could not at
tend the latter.
