Rev. A. b. Moore is still having ap.
preciative crowds. The seating capicity
of the new building is fully taxed and
if attendance continues to increase as il
has in the past standing room will be at
premium. One man was immersed last
night and others are almost persuaded.
The sermon on last Sunday evening on
"How to Read the Bible so as to Under.
stand it" was listened to by large audi.
ence. Rightly Dividing the Word Of
Cod was new revelation to many.
The Evangelist asked How many in
the large audience had read the entire
Bible through, how many had read the
New Testam mt through, how many
read the Bible daily and how many read
the newspapers? This developed the
fact that ten had read the Bible through,
eighteen the New Testiment, eight read
the Bible daily and everybody read the
newspapers.

BraytOn Sensation.

Excitement ran high at Brayton last
Friday. Half a dazen of the leading
citizens, besides several other persons,
we're sick from eating diseased meat sold
to them by Eric Hansen who ran a
butcher shop there. The people have
recovered and Mr.. Hansen has paid his
fine and doesn't do business there any
more. We understand that there is. an
opening there for some one to run a meat
shop.
Among those taken violently sick were
Fred Edmundson, H. NJ. Bartlett, T. j.
McGovern, I. J. Essington and George
freeman. The patients mostly were az
hicted with persistent vomiting. As
soon as the cause was known Mr.. Han
sen was in danger Of suffering violence
at the hands OF the afflicted people
and their friends. 1t seems that he had
bought COW of Hans Hansen, of Audi.
bon township, which COW had been sick
for several days, and sold meat from its
carcas to his customers. He was brought
before Justice Elliott Tuesday, plead
guilty, and was fined including costs,
S62.10. Hans Hansen who sold him the
COW was also fined sl4.lO including costs.
1t is thought that Mr.. Eric Hansen has
been guilty of this kind Of business fire.

how serious it was.
