A PLEA TOR POg|ER|IY|
"A Peculiar Popular Lecture
by Professor John B.
Denote.
Lecturers Admirers Disappoint-
ed in the Structure OF His
Latest Platform Effort.
First Entertainment in the Sea.
sons Course Of the Railway
Y. N. c. "A.

The opening lecture of the Y. NJ. c. "A.
course Monday evening was somewhat
of disappointment. Professor John b.
Denote is a noted lecturer. Upon sew
eral occasions he has delighted Mar
shalltown audiences, but this year he
appears in what has apparently been
designed for popular" lecture with
stereopticon accompaniment and strange
as it may seem with one of DeMotte's
accomplishments, in the opinion Of the
most present, his effort fell short Of
what was expected.
However, out of an incoherent collec-
ton of pictures and a disconnected talk
the eloquence of Denote burst forth at
times to drive home some forceful truth
that remained with his audience as a
valuable lesson and left his hearers i'm
proved in mind for having come.
The lecture was a plea for Poster
ity." BY series of pictures of beautj-
full horses and well-bred cattle the lee
turer showed what had been done by
man in following the law of heredity in
the breeding of livestock. Then the lee
turer jumped to the Hall OF Fame to
prove by statistics that 80 per cent of
our great men spent their boyhood days
in lowly novels. Here, according to the
theme of the lecturer was the life that
breeds character and mental power.
From this he reasoned that the great
mechanical age in which we are living
tends to vitiate the individuality and
Strength of mind which was cultivated
in We olden time when women spun and
men beat their own pillow shares. His
logic was somewhat faulty, but when he
drew the comparisons between the trials
end temptations OF modern city life to
the free, wholesome atmosphere of the
poor country boy he scored point with
his audience. From this he launched into
u severe arraignment Of the street fair
and its oriental temptations, which was
d strong condemnation of the modern
carnival aptly termed The Devils Fes-
ft.val' by some minister's Protect the
young was the gist of Denotes argu-'
ment; the old sinner is beyond tempta-
ton.
Perhaps the strongest point in his lee
ture was the argument he hinged upon
the picture of steerage scene on an I'M
migrant vessel. With figures and incl
dents Denote called attention to the
frightful flood of the old worlds scum
of humanity that is being dumped upon
our shores to breed assassins. rioters
and lawless people Of all kinds. He
then closed with a rendition Of poettcal
tributes to nature which gave an excuse
for exhibiting some beautiful scenes of
mountains, fields and streams. It was
certainly an original entertainment.
From picture to picture the audience
was startled at the introduction of such
a view and wondered at its connection
with what had gone before and went
away wondering still.

Chairman Benson, OF. the water COM
mittee, in his monthly report, called at
tention TO the severe YAK on the water
supply during the past three months.
The water supply, he said, had held re-
markably well, and the people of MIR
shalltown should be congratulate ed.
While the supply is still taxed, especial
ly since the glucose works reopened, The
wells are now furnishing an average of
100000 gallons per day, but the supply
is not sufficient for fires, flushing of hy-
grants and other emergencies. altho 1t
would be were the EXTENSION completed
by the addition of new wells. In his re-
port Chairman Benson advised against
the laying of additional mans ordered at
previous meeting on several streets
south of Main street, because of a big
increase in the price of iron pipe. but
the Recommendation brought protest
from DIR. Harris. who wanted a six-inch
main laid on South Second street from
Main to Linn streets. The main was or
dered, for the reason that the present
two-inch service pipe does not furnish
sufficient water to the consumers along
that street.
Mr. Benson. of the special sewage
committee. reported work on the dispo-
sal plant as progressing satisfactorily
and that the plant will be completed be-
fore the electric supply company has its
power plant installed. Mr.. Benson sad
