FIREMEN ALSO WORRIED.
Shake Up In That Department Is
Expected by the Men,

1t is expected that there will be some
interesting business transacted at the
meeting of the Fire Commissioners to be
held at Fire Headquarters this evening.
Although it has been frequently stated
that the present Board is opposed to max
ing any changes in the various com
panies, several changes have been sug-
gested and no doubt with the influence
behind certain of the captains, they will
probably be made and that at tonight's
meeting.
Since the present Board came into pow
er on the first Monday in May, the
meetings have been attended by men
prominent in Democratic politics. The
presence of these men convey to the pub
lie the idea that there is something in
the wind. While the Commissioners are
delaying matters the fremen are suffer-
ing from great worriment.

The department at Washington has Just
issued an order changing the post office name
OF Link" In this county 10 "Willington,"
thus making the name Of the post Office
sypanymous with the name Of the town at
which kept and OF the r. r. Station. and the
name "Link" Is transferred 10 the Office here
toiore called "Willington," :" which is Kept at u
point. midway between the towns OF Willing.
Lon aid Mt. Carmel, 80
This exchange OF names is altogether pro-
ppeIehborhood. They asked M. ). Altheus
Johnson who was intimately acquainted
With the local situation, to explain the mat:
ter to the Department., and we understand
that the Department. when the neighborhood
situation was explained. very cheerfully
made the order for the change Of name.
The Wellington Station on the rail road is
only about 8:4 OF mile fram the site Of the
old Wellington Church, organized by DR..

the post Office formerly called Wilmington,

, Jews seem to shade off, as 1t were, into,

agnosticism.
The Zionist movement is one that proposes
to assist the fulf1llment Of prophecy by reas.
,enbling all the Jews In Jerusalem and
Palestine, and then TO await developments.
That would seem now to be an impossible
task, an insnrmountable difficulty lying In
the unwillingness Of the Jews to be removed
from their native lands and also In keeping
them there. .+
What has the future in store for this people!
1000 years OF persecution have failed to wipe
out their distinctive characteristics, though
all that time they have lived withou,
a country. Their aloofness will doubtless
guarantee their separation from the rest o.
mankind to the end of the chapter.
And the Jew shows no sign OF decay. He ft
more vigorous II possible than ever; certainly
mentally he has lost nothing. AS another
remarks, he has seen five powerful empires
rise, one after the other and decay In turn
himself unaltered and unaffected.
The Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian, Mace
donlan and Roman Empires are but tcrumbiine
monuments TO the Antiquity of the Jew
He is here and here to stay. An author In
one OF our late Magazines truly remarks
"Ail things are mortal but the Jew. All other
forces pass, but he remains What Is the secre
OF his Immortality 2" And that question
Will ask the Club to solve. s.
