RIVERSIDE CHURCH. Rev. : F. Carr, of the Riverside.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1899-10-23
FIRST METHODIST CHURCH.

At the First Methodist church yesterday Rev. pr. Mckay, of the First Presbyterian church, Fort Smith, preached in morning, and Rev. Dr. Miller, fof the First Presbyterian ehurch8 Little Rock, preached in the evening. roth sernfons were strong and helpful, and we're much appreciated by the large audiences that heard them.
 Dr. Miller preached on Sabbath observance He said that the Ten Commandments are still the funda. mental law of the moral govern. ment of God; that these command. ments are not arbitrary statutes, and no man can violate any one of them without thereby entering on the path of Killing out his own na
 ture, for the commandments are true to the best interests of his a
 ture. He held that there are two institutions that have come down to us from Eden, the Sabbath and the home; both of these lie at the foun- dation of all the good that is in the world, of all the institutions that are prized among men. Without Sabbath you cannot have a home, you cannot have a church, and when these two are gone, DO mans busi
 ness in this town would be worth ten cents 9n tte dollar and real es- tate would not be worth the having. The doctor also made a plea for a Sabbath for the mer who labor, railroad men, Lewsp paper men, men in the postal serVice. He read the deliverances of a number of railroad presidents to the effect that there lis DO necessity for freight transpor- tation on Sunday. He arraigned church mem bers who patronize rail roads on the Sabbath, who go after their mail on Sunday, and who read Sunday daily papers. The Rev. MT. Anderson, pastor of the church, who was sitting behind the doctor, responded to these sentiments with an old fash ion Methodist amen.

BIG TRAINED ANIMAL SHOW.
Norris Brothers Here-A Manifceni
 Parade.

The much read atout, talked of aLd advertised Norris Bros. Trained Animal Slow arrived in the city Sunday morning iaDd pitched their large waterproof tents on the va cant lot on the southwest corner of Cherry and Pullen streets. At eleven o'clock the parade started and proved to be one of the most novel and attractive street denominations ever seen in thls city. Scores of beautiful Shetland ponies, dozens of monkeys, goats aud the cutest. bon niest. little vehicles. The streets were well filled with men, women and children who showed their ap- preeiatio by exclamations of "Oh, and '.ah,o = etc. The first perform ance was given this afternoon be- fore all audience that filled every available spa e in the vast amphi- thea tre. They remain just one day, giving a performance tonight at s o'clock. The entertain nent they give IS really fine, high class, moral and instructive, and the admission fee in the reach of all. The show is twice the size of any similar attrac- tion. There was more genuine laughter from the old folks and cries of delight from the tots that one of- ten has the pleasure of hearing. The person who does not find pleasure in tue tricks and antics that Prof. Nor ris has in his charge, must be indeed blaze. There was not an act from beginning to end that did not com maDd close attention and some ot the special features wore SD good as to merit detsiled description. Far go, the smallest elephant in the world, went through an act that was astonishing.

THE DIGNITY OF WOMAN.

Rev. W. D. Buckner. B D of the Episcopalian church delivered a very fine address. His theme was Dignity of Women" He said in part;
 That woman received her digni- ty from the son of God, who said, Whoever doeth the will of God, is my mother aud my sister" The object lesson was drawn from the character of Dorcas, whose sweet and beautiful life is so vividly set forth iu the Acts of the Apostles. Woman's influence was dwelt upon forcibly by Rev. Buckner showing as an example the life of Cleopa. "a, and her influence over Mark Antony
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1899-10-23

and that of Sampsofas betrayal by Deliliah. Again how Ahab was tricked by Jez4bel showing the infuence of woman over man. His concluding picture was tribute to woman paid oy J. c Hof ard in his famous poem Katrina. He show ed from the time Of Eve that women had principally made tLe history Of the world; the men did the deeds; the women led the men. To have great men, ? said Rev. Buckner, i've must of necessity have great women. Behind the thoughts and actions Of the men are the thoughts and ae
 tions of the women. The world is to oe reformed, not by the preacher s voice from the pulpit only, but by that most powerful sermon, the g6od examp.e of sweetness and life that aemenates from woman, who was dignifed by bei4g the mother of tbe meek and lowly Nazerine.

 We received today,e said Mr. Dilley, a selegraphic order from the Tioga Lumber Co., of Alexandria, La. for six miles of rail, 15 fiat cars and one locomotive. The amount of the order will be $22, GOO. The com pany that gave us the order is going to build a railroad there of that length. Itis the biggest single or der that we have ever had.

ALO J. B. DICKINSON
An Interview With the Little Rock
 Alderman on Public Questions.

Mr. J. B. Dickinson of the firm of Plunkett farrell Grocery Co. ot Little Rock, and one of it's sCity Dads, was visitor to our city Friday, enroute to spend a few weeks with his parents at Summer vile.
 While in coYersatlon with MT. Dickinson Friday evening, regard ing the progress being made by Little Rock relative to their public buildings, parks, the state house and the doings of the city council, we learned the following:
 aThe city coulcil'' said Mr. Dick inson, is having a great deal of stgnpble with the street car people. We raised their franchise from $500 to $1100 because of their fail. ure to pay the stipulated price as agreed by contract. We are striv- ing with all our might, using the best means and methods possible, and just, to purchase city electric lght plant for the consumers"
 But, we asked, do you mean to do this by the improvement district method?"
 No, indeed, said Mr. Dickinson. ''It is our intention to have the consumers, those uslug light, to pledge themselves to support the movement, aud by such means they will receive the benefits acrning 2 therefrom, and in time own thei lighting plant. We do not, nor do we intend to, ask people wno do not use the lights to obligate themselves ia any way for the payment thereof. You see, said MT. Dickinson. "by this means, only those sharing the benefits will have to bear the bur- den.
 "The present corporation and company" said he, ''are charging exhorbltant rates, both for the power ard lights, and we must do away with it.
 I've have," he continued, "IeUs fected plan by which we hope to give the people electric lights and electric power equal to, if not bet. ter, than that they DOW enjoy, at less prices. The cost of production to the city of the plant will be about one half, as com mpared to what they have been paying in the past, to the present corporation. We have for sometime been earnestly epdeavor- ing to get the legislature to give us the right to borrow money tor inter- nal improvements that is, issue bonds. say on the thirty year plan.

ST. JOSEPH CATHOLIC CHURCH.

E4s 1OSGEn 0A hOlA1O GE4ORAIs
 Rev. J, M. Lucy, the pastor, used as a subject Purity of Thought, and in substance said
 Once impurity has entered the soul, its expulsion seems to be i'm possible without geducing in twain the very heart Of man. For this reason the battle must be fought at the door of the sou. The interior, the mlnd, the heart, must be so guarded that an impure thought cannot enter, To guard the mind Fit is necessary to luard the avenues that lead to the nind- which are the senses, especially the eye aud ear. It is asked whether novel reading is sinful and the answer is that much depends on the eharac- ter of the person and of the book. What is one persons meat IS anoth CT persons poison. In general way it may be said that such au- thors as Scott, D. ekens, Cooper and Irving are not improper for the minds Of the young, while the cheaper and more sensational dime novels are almost invariably DOT sonous. When reading is done for a worty object, such as relaxation by business man or the enrich ment of the powers of imagination by the student, it ia rare for the mind to become corrupted. On the other Land, reading in Idle moments to kill time and bumor the devil rarely fails to lead to evil.
 Another fruitful source of impure thoughts comes through the ears, from vulgar aud immodest .conver- sation. II is utterly inexplica ble how it is that when a body of men are thrown togethe.' for two or three days at a time, what cess pool of impurlty is brought forth. It is astonishing hat more atten. tion is not given tO tbe horrible na- ture of vulgar converse ion, espe- ciallY when men are alone with men. In olden Catholic countries, the crucifx, statue of the Virgin Mary and other sacred symbols are placed in the workshop as well as the school room, to exercise @ restrain ing influence.
 When the mind is attacked by an impure thought, sometimes a diver sion of the mind to another subject is sufficient to drive it away, some times a short prayer or uovena is necessary. But the great remedy for such troubles is confession and communion By conf ssion per, son becomes conscious of bis sinful condition, makes the necessary act of con triton, forms the resolution of amendment and then throws the load of sin that was bearing hlm to the bottom of the sea of perdition at the feet of the Savior represented by the priest of the church and r ses free man to go forth and sin no more. Then his soul receives the bread Of fife, koy communion, the body and blood Of Christ, which nourishes his spiritual life ard de- stroys the inclination to sin.

Council bill a6 should be defeated

Council bill 36 should be defeated.
 It comes up for consideration in the committee of the whole in the house today This bill should have been de- feated in the council, but backed by a strong lobby which wishes to retard the growth of Phoenix, it passed that house, but we are satisfied that the assembly if it thoroughly understands the object of the bill will throw it into the waste basket. The object of this bill is to repeal act Nc. 75, passed in 1893. Act No 75 gives the city the right to bring any addition into the city by filing a bill in the district court and after trial by jury if it is found that no injustice will be done to the inhabitants or persons interested then the additions shall become a part of the city. This is a fair and just law. What possible objection founded on equity and common sense can there be offered against it? The object of council bill 36 is to defeat four suits filed by the city of Phoenix and now pending before the district court. the city endeavoring to bring in some ad- ditions that are receiving enormous benefits from the city. If council bill 36 should become a law it would be utterly impossible for any city in Ari- zona to ever extend it's boundaries. The title of council bill 36 should be changed so it would read: An Act to Defeat -Four Lawsuits Now Pending 1A NHo, County, and to Forever Stop the Ex- tension of the Corporate Limits of any City in Arizona

OUR NATIONAL GUARD.

One of the most meritorious bills presented before the present legisla- ture was one which had been carefully prepared by the adjutant general to maintain and strengthen the national guard of the territory
 During the late unpleasantness with Spain Arizona's citizen soldiers won for her imperishable glory One third of the members of her guard en- listed. Many of them received com missions. The picture of brave Buckley O'Neill in his uniform as adju- tant general of Arizona's national guard, was published throughout the country in magazines and newspapers. The best monument to his memory would be well sustained national guard of the territory We can show honor to the flag borne by the Rough Riders by fitting other young men worthily to take their place in time of trial.
 Every penny expended for the guard is for the benefit of our own young men. There is no better way of ob- taining aid for cur territory from the general government than by making appropriations for the guard Con gress will be likely to duplicate what ever appropriation is made by the ter ritory. There is no better school for the soldier than the national guard It is Arizona's West Point It teaches young men to be resolute, self-reliant, Obedient. In the years just before us many citizens of the United States will receive commissions in the regular army; that the young men of Arizona may have fair chance to win these commissions they need the school af- forded by the guard. Every cent of the appropriations asked for would be expended in ule territory. No state CT territory should be more swift than Arizona to recognize the need and value of a citizen soldiery. The state of New York expends almost half a million of dollars annually on it's guard, and considers the amount we'll invested.
 It is stated that even the pittance asked for by the adjutant general for inspections and for medals for sharp shooters did not find favor with some of our legislators. Gentlemen of the legislature, give the boys chance
 Governor Murphy has appointed as adjutant general an experienced and popular officer who has been a mem her of the national guard of Arizona for more than nine years. The officers pay fer their own uniforms and give their time without pay for the build ing up of the military organization in

(Written for The Republican, In his lofty watchtower sits the Lord. And looks across the plain. He sees the ambush of the horde Of enemies unslain He sends thee forth as prophet, seer, He bids me stay my foolish fear; So thou art there and I am here, But His watch 'twixt us will hold
 us dear
 Until we meet again. In His lofty iwatchtower sits the Lord And names each warriors part. He bids enc battle with the sword, Another with the dart. He sends thee forth ito do and dare, He bids me build defense of prayer. So I am here and thou art there, But 'twixt us is His loving care,
 Till heart join heart. In His lofty watchtower sits the Lord, When the days work is done, And gives His soldiers rich reward For victories well won. Then with rejoicing shall we meet And lay our trophies at His feet; United by His love complete, Whose watch 'twixt us was full and

Hence our investments did not pay what they should, and our stocks were not rated high in London.

Public confidence in the next census will be greatly increased by the ap- pointment of Dr. Wines of Illinois as assistant census director. Dr. Wines is an expert statistician, and most of the work of collecting census returns and of sitting and compiling them will fall under his supervision. Ap- pointment of enumerators may be made a political job, but Dr. Wines can be depended on to make the most effective use possible of the subord.nates with which he is supplied. If the census su- pervisors that the president has yet to name shall be Of the same order the omission of civil service provisions in the census bill may prove to be no serious drawback. The appointment of Dr. Wines encourages hope that they will be of this character.
