HIS IDEAL MINISTER.
Attorney Sims Talks Before Pastors Of
Council Bluffs.

ATTORNEY SINS Talks BEFORE Pastors or
Council Bluffs.
Council Bluffs Nonpariel.)
ssMy Ideal Pastor and Preacher, =
was the subject of an address delivered
by Attorney Jacob Sims before the
meeting of the Ministerial Association
at the Congregation church Wednesday
morning. The meeting was fairly we'll
attended and the subject was thorough
ly discussed by the pastors present.
Mr.. Sims said in part:
7 My ideal minister is both pastor
and preacher. He not only knows his
flock by name, he feeds them: and to
that end he is first of all sincere
Christian man, an earnest student of
the bible, a searcher after truth, we'll
grounded in the faith and not driven
about by every wind Of doctrine. He
is man of liberal education, which
means that he is of studious habits and
realizes that his success in no small
degree is measured by the extent to
which he has sounded all the depths of
human knowledge.
He holds his congregation by the
sincerity and earnestness of his preach
ing and not by assumed mannerisms
in the pulpit; and breaches as lfehe;,
We're determined to know nothing save
Jesus Christ and Him crucitied. He
is rigidly honest in all of his dealings,
not borrowing without probability of
paying ,.. 81
SOMETIMES RIDES A BICYCLE,
He does not walk on religious stills,
but breaches in a known tongue; some.
times rides a bicycle or automobile, but
never appears in knee pants; has his /
pocket bible we'll thnmbed on theylet- /
tiers to Timothy and Titus.
- He not only knows how to begin his
sermon, but better still knows " hen to
stop. Many good sermon is spoiled
because either the ministerial not stop
when he was through with hissdis-
course, or was loaded teo heavily and
the breaks wouldn't work. sfs
my ideal minister interests himself
in municipal and public affairs without.

The ideal minister as outlined by
MIR. Sims was endorsed, so to speak,
by all of the ministers nresent Whila
some of them discussed the matter
along different lines all thought that
Attorney Sims had pointed out
minister that ought to please any man.

Snakes Legs.

There are two very finely prepared
skeletons Of big snakes In the Nation
al museum In Washington, and in
making them ready for exhibition the
utmost pains were taken to preserve
the cartilaginous extremities of the
ribs, which with ordinary treatment
are lost. Without these little pieces
of cartilage the serpent's skeleton can
hardly be said to be complete, mas
much as they are the feet upon which
the reptile walks, as 1t were. In fact.
a snake walks on the ends of Its ribs
and in that manner achieves locomo-
tion.
Some big serpents, however, like the
boas and pythons, really have hind
legs, though they are quite rudimenta-
ry. Pythons, you know, are constrict-
ors, crushing their prey In their tolls.
They have no poison glands, but they
can bite terrifcally with their many
teeth, which turn inward like hooks,
so that person once seized would
have little chance of disengaging him
self save by chopping or the head Of
the animal.

Mayor Robertson received Tuesday
q communication from Mrs. Orville
Dwight Baldwin, of San Francisco,
asking that small elm tree from Can
ton be sent to San Francisco to be
planted by the school children in the
public square where President Nc
Kinley made an address during his

Mrs. Baldwin is descendant Of 4

of which some members later had
much to do with preserving the IA

torical interest.
She is very much interested In Sc

president and having it publicly plant

Mayor Robertson has written Mrs.
Baldwin informing her that as soon
as the holidays are over he will take
up the matter of securing and for
warding suitable tree in accordance
with her request.

Knowledge Is Power.

An Illustration Of the truth Of this
proverb is found In Mr.. ]. G. Bertrams
book, ''Tbe Harvest Of the Sea-" 1t
seems that monopoly of the extern
sive fisheries of Scotland and England
once came into the hands Of man
who kept his agents at the principal
stations and required them to furnish
him all facts that came to their knowl-
edge.
At one Of his stations In the far north
the fishing had been unsuccessful for
the greater part Of the season, and
there was no prospect of improvement
when he looked into the matter. Upon
examining his agents letters from
that place for some years back he
found by a comparison of dates that
at a certain place herrings were likely
to be found. He accordingly instructed
his agent to send his boats to that
spot.
The fishermen laughed at the idea
Of man sitting some hundreds Of
miles away and telling them where to
get fish, but as his orders were posi-.
tive they had to obey, and the conse.
quence was that they returned next
morning loaded with herrings.

INDIANS BECAME EXCITED.
Pow-Wowed After Eating Buffalo
Meat--Thrests Against Whites
Reported.

Guthrie, Okla, Dc. 26.--The Paw
nee Indians are thvk,tening,
An immense buffalo bull was so IN
jured in transferring from the Santa
Fe stock yards to Pawnee Bill s
ranch, south of town, that he had TO
be killed. The meat was given by
Major Lille to the indians for a buf-
falo dance. The Indians have been
dancing and powwowing ever since.
They claim the vast herds OF buffalo
are coming back to his country and
many Of the Indians have notified the
white lessees to vacate their ranches
at once, as they wish to lay the fences
low SO the buffalo will have full sway
of the country. The white people in
the remote parts Of the reservation
are coming into Pawnee and report
the Indians are acting in threaten
ing manner toward them. Pawnee
i'll has placed mounted guards around
his buffalo ranch, as the Indians are
camping in the timber west of there
and in sight Of the herd, and from
their suspicious actions he thinks
they intend to liberate the herd and
perhaps kill them. The United
States Indian agent at that point has
been notified and has made report
to the commissioner Of Indian affairs
at Washington.
