ADJT. GEN. BYERs HERE.
VIII Muster in Company II at Eas
Court Room This Evening.

Court Room This Evening.
Adjutant- General NJ. H. Byers arrived
In Che city this morning and will remain
to muster In Co. II as company in the
reorganized national guard this even
ing. Cen. Byers had just come from
Cedar Rapids where he mustered in a
large company last evening. He expects
to have nearly a full company of forty
five men tonight but owing to the abb
sence from the city of several it is
feared that the number will fall short
of the full quota. The mastering cere
mony will take place in the east court
room at o'clock.
Gen Byers is true son of Mars in his
appearance and commands respect even
from strangers by his military bearing.
In a conversation in the Republic
can office he expressed himself ON sew
eral subjects pertaining to the re-organ-
ization of the guard. He is in favor of
II more complete naturalization of the
guard so as to place it on a basis cor
responding more definitely with the reg
ular army organization. Gen. Byers
has been in correspondence With the
war department regarding these mat
tiers ard Is pleased TO see that the fed
Grad officials are inclined to similar
views. The re organized guard Will con-
tain more regular army officers and will
conform more with federal army regu-
lations than ever before.

church was on Eternal Life or Eternal
Death-Which? This life is not ever
lasting existence. but Gods gift of His
own eternal nature to his child. 1t Is
personal, spiritual, divine, perfect and
eternal. 1T is communicated through
the words of God. Eternal death Is
eternal separation from God, who is
eternal life. This comes as the just de-
serts or wages of sim" Eternal life
may be received only as 1.-The gift Of
God through Jesus Christ. Fully a
score of persons arose for prayer when
the invitation was given. Several We're
baptised. The singing was unusually
excellent during the entire service.
There was the usual service at 2:30 to-
day. Tonights service will be at 1870

awarded the handsome silver cups Of

very interesting and some fine shooting
was done in both classes. Each race
was for 100 birds and at the completion
the score showed that Messrs. Cook.
Lane and Densel had tied in Class a
with ninety birds each. MIR. Cook had a
safe lead up to his last ten. having
missed only six. He fell down. how
ever, on the last ten and missed four.
This gave Mr. LaEe the lead. as he had
only missed nine out of the ninety nine,
but the Tooth bird he missed, making
his score the same as that of both Den
sci and Cook.
In class b Mr. j. II. Drummer. the
winner. lacked three of equalling the
highest score made by the class A men
His score at the close was eighty-seven
with MIR. Ned Wallace crowding him
