A LARGE AUDIENCE
Hears the Lecture by I'll. G.. Thayer on the
Last Days of Paul.

Hears the Lecture by fl. G. Thayer on the
Last Days of Paul.
The Hon. H. G. Thsyer delivered his
we'll known lecture in the Methodist
church last night. The house was
crowded and no one was disappointed
for the address was interesting through.
out. After some excellent music, Mr..
Thayer began his address. The fact
that he had travelled to Rome over the
same route used by Paul makes the lee
ture more vivid. and his msssing of de-
scriptive details gathered thus does
much to heighten the effect. His nar-
ration is simple in style, yet powerful
He takes the apostle as he stands be-
fore King Agrippa and carries him tt
the last fateful hours before Nero Tht
first part of the letter is mainly descrip
tive, lacking character study, but th'
peroration is rich in the light it throw'
upon the character of the great apostle
The antithesis employed in contrasting
Paul and Nero is of high order. Th'
close is quiet bit of OratOry, vel
suited to the simple delivery Of th'
lecturer. The Epworth League is to b'
congratulated upon securing Mr.
Thayer's services
Mr.. Thayer made five addresses yes
terday. He spoke to the Baptist and
Presbyterian Sunday schools in tn
morning, to the Methodist Sunday
school in the afternoon and to the Ep
worth League in the evening, beside
the regular lecture in the evening"

Lengthy Remembrance Does the
Work Five Hundred Feet of Rub

A Lengthy Remonstrance Does the
Work Five Hundred Feet of Rub
Der Hose Ordered Purchased
The council meeting was unintel est
ing Monday, with the exception ot one
or two arguments which arose spon-
taneously from subject matter on hand.
The remOnstrance which Was presented
with the idea of undoing all which has
been accomplished In regard to paving
Sophia street contained formidable
list of reasons why it is best not to pave
that particular thoroughfare. Here are
a few of the reasons rehashed in briefer
form:
l. Because said street is lined on
either side entirely by resident property.
2. Because it is the dryest street in
town.
3. Cost of said improvement in some
cases would exceed the value of the
property along which it is built, and
would be greater than any possible ben
eft.
4. Because money invested III re had
better be put to some more Temunera-
ative use by paving Michigan and La
porte streets where the pavement is
actually needed.
8. Owing TO the uncertainty of inter
pretation which the supreme judges
will put upon a certain law effecting
street paving it were best at any rate
not to pave right away.
The above, with variety OF explana
tions, not published, was read 10 the
council. Alderman Reynolds immedi-
stely objected 10 various statements
made as being untrue and moved that
the remOnstrance re laid upon the table
Alderman Dickinson and others disa-
greed with this method OF disposal, and
object of contention was referred to a
committee for consider alton. Casually
we remark that the remOnstrance

least for this year.
Fire Chief Kuhn brought before the
council the necessity of new hose. AT
ter considering the topic In its manifold
lights and convincing themselves that
the ICED WAS an actual one, arrange
ments were made for the purchase OF
500 feet of rubber hose.
City Treasurer Wilson filed report
in which he stated that he had levied

panies IN Plymouth for delinquent
taxes. The United States office had

A Kean Anecdote.

In playing Richard III. Charess
Kean INDUCED in series OF dread
full grimaces which the conventions
OF the times regarded as appropri-
ate accessories OF the role. He was
playing the piece in a prominent
town, and had occasion to take on
man to enact the part of the Senti-
mel who awakes Richard and an
nounces: "'Tis l, my Lord; the viii
lage clock hath twice proclaimed
the hour OF morn" Unfortunately
Kean made such dreadful grimaces
that the Sentinel forgot his lines
and stammered: "'Tis /, my Lord,
tits l, my Lord; the village cockl
IT'S /, my lord, the-village cockp
BY this time there was a decided
litter all over the house, and Kean
then said: "Then why the mischief
don't you crowi" which, needless to
say, brought down the house.

be suitable for the conditions exist

questions Of vital Importance which
can only be settled by men thor
oughly conversant with our affairs
and in position to judge what
measures will be of the greatest
benefit to our people. Can such men
be found in Washington With a
few exceptions the Senators and
