MEMORIAL :
/ At BPWORTH

Memorial services In honor of the
late President Mckinley, were held at
both the morning and evening services
at Epworth NJ. II. Church yesterday.
| At the morning service addresses were
made by Horace Greedy Knowles, II. G.
Eastburn and the Rev. Il. d. King Of
New Jersey. 1t was Mr.. Eastburns
first appearance as public speaker and
he made both an eloquent and interest.
ing address. He made Il very favorable
impression with the large congregation.
! Mr.. Eastburn was only admitted to tho
New Castle County Bar last week. The
East Side Republican Club attended the
services in II body. Last night the Rev.
| +. Burgettc Short, pastor OF the church
| preached Il special sermon Oh Our Death
Crowned Martyr" lie took his text
| from Mum. NIB: let me die the death
| of the righteous, and let my last end he
| like his
During the course of the sermon Mr..
Short said: Our Prince in Israel has
fallen and his body has been laid TO rest
among his kindred at Canton, Ohio. but
the nation goes marching on to fulfill her
G"d-intcndcd destiny. What shall be
that destiny? My friends, the destiny
OF TINS nation VIII he determined b"
those who rule the nation. The cnar-
ac1cr of our rulers will manifest itself
in the very life of our republic. Thus
has ii ever been. What have been the
two most excellent qualities in those
whom the nation mas thus far chosen to
rule over it! Have they not been mora:
and Christian in their character! And
when we pause for II moment To think
OF IT., 1t seems strangely true that three
of the nobltst eXpouents Of the above
qualities were stuck down 10y an asi,s-
SINS bullet. Speak them together il you
will, hut speak them soItly-l.incoln. Gar
meal, Mckinley. And now how shall We
speak of our last death crowned m,rt-r!
Is not the language Of the text the see
ret and cherished wish of our hearts!
Let my last end be like his Such
life, aud such death are only possible
for those who live such life, and such
as William Mckinley lived.
Let us seek for the 'hitf rule Of his
life. " hat do We find that rule to be.
William Mckinley was true to his coun-
try and to his God. First, that he was
true to his country none will dare to
question. That III gave to his country
IN unsc,ish and an rnstiu,ed service is
the belief ,l alI. That he p.lotrd our

MIR. Libby said That Is " hat the Mayor
should Have.

Hon. Charles r Libby lectured last
night before the Civic club on the City
Charter" He was the chairman OF the
charter commission which was appointed
In 1886 to present draft for a proposed
nsw charter and. taking this up section
by section explained 1t In a clear and in
teresting manner, showing the need of
each recommendation. MIR. Libby said
tnat what Was required In a municipality
is individual responsibility brought
home. He spoke of the fire department
bin now pending before the legislature
and said that the difficulty with 1t was
that while 1t gave the chief engineer
power TO remove everyone, IL gives no
one chance to remove him. Mr.. Libby
further showed that the powers of the
mayor are Inadequate and that he should
be. given more authority. AS the head OF
the city government the mayor should be
made responsible for every thing IS far as
possible. lie should have a large power
OF appointment and removal Of all
officials in the executive branch of the
government.
Mir Libby said that the practical Diff
culties in Portland as elsewhere is the
lack of attention OF citizens o their OWL
duties Each citizen should be willing &C
bear his fair share of the public burdens
and perform his fair share OF the work.
At the conclusion of his Interesting ad-
dress Mr.. Libby was asked many ques
tions which he answered.

SCORED BY A JUDGE.



Minneapolis, Mimi, June o0.-Judge
Pond. OF the Hennepin court, yester-
lay filed his order appointing Albert
H. Hall receiver for the insolvent
American Mining and Investment
company, which is alleged to have
realized $250,OOO for stock sold, and
the assets of which are said to be
not in excess of $1,000. In memo-
randnm which accompanies the or
der the court says: "The informa-
ton charges this company with re-
peated acts ultra wires the corpora
ton, with gross misuse and abuse of
It's franchises, with rank and most
glazing misrepresentation, deceit and
fraud and, in effect, with a course Of
business conduct so stepped in in-
iquity and sin as to stagger human
belief. In the face of these charges
the corporation does no more than to
formally file with the clerk its general
denial and hasten to avoid investiga-
ton by admitting facts sufficient to
warrant the court in granting the re-
life prayed for. That such an APP
parently rotten and corrupt concern
should exist and for a time thrive in
this community is a sad commentary
upon the intelligence of its patrons
and no less so on the morals of peo-
pie permitting it."
