AT THE CHURCHES.
NJ. L. CHURCH.


The day was delightful and, in spite
of attractions in many other directions,
the attendance at all services was good
The morning discourse dealt with the
claims upon our attention presented by
the salvation in Christ. Heb. 2:3.
The evening text was the one word,
"Tekel." Dan. 5:25.
The pastor announced that till the
end of the conference year, which will
be three weeks, he and his wife will
call on members and friends of the
church as they find opportunity during
the afternoons, except Thursdays when
they may be found at home.
Articles left at the parsonage from
the supper last Tuesday evening may
be had if their owners will call or send
for them
Persons who have books borrowed
from the preachers library will please
return them this week.
The Battle Ground camp meeting
closed Sunday very successfully
Two of the cottagers who had been reg
ular attendants for % years died during
the session: Rev. John NJ. Stafford, 80
years devout and successful preacher,
at his parsonage in Shawnee Mound,
and the sainted Aunt Mile Bessley,
in her Goth year at Lafayette. She was
the widow of a pioneer preacher.

a large crowd which assembled TO see
the balloon ascension last night was
disappointed, The patent gas generator
failed to DO its work efficiently, and as
a result the balloon was not III floating
order before night. Owing to darkness
the aeroraut refused to make the as

no one, or it may he the fault of some
one; at any rate the merchants who con-
tributed toward it Ore bitter because the
public should be treated to frost al

A Lake in Our Streets.

Chss. Harris, who drives the sprlnk-
Ter around few squares IN the bust
ness part of this city, distributes here
and there during the summer over 3,000,-
600 gallons Of water. His tank holds 550
gallons. This he empties, on an aver
age, thirty times day. lie is employed
almost constantly from April TO Sep
TENDER 10, or, not counting Sundays,
about 49, days. Some very simple
figuring soon shows the amount of
water he distributes to be something
like 3,260,500 gallons. This would
make lake quite large enough to ac-
cOmmodate all those In Plymouth who
spend their summers rowing, fishing
and bathing. If allowed to break loose
on the streets of Plymouth at once in
stead of being let out in small quaint
ties, it would cause a flood greater thai
any in the history of this town.
