noble man has given to Christianity A
revival of appreciation Of Christian song
has come to this naticn. Listen to them
on Thursday afternoon in our Opera
HouSe--all creeds and political beliefs
singing Nearer, My God, to Thee and
as they sang all recognized the tremcll-
dous Importance of being near to God
i'm such sad hours. And furthermore, the
Gospel has received a testimonial which
the world can never forget. That he be-
lieved in and supported the laws OF hiJ
country none will doubt. Neither wilt
any question his belief in and practice
Of the Gospel when they remember that
! ike his crnciiicd Lord he prayed for
his death-bearing enemy. This. my
friends, is the very highest point in
Christian eAperience--that man will
pray lOr his slayer. let no one hurt
nim' o, how much like the prayer of
the betrayed Nazerene. At such Il mani
festation of Christ and charity we all
stand amazed and wonder how il was SO.
Tie gree of God will help man to pray
FOR his enemies. And in this grace he
ived ana grew for thirty and three
years.
His Christian life was not beauti-
fully spun theory. 1t was magnificent
reality. 1t blossomed ont aud bore fruit
n his every relationship of life. His
ips seem to have been touched With
live coal from off Gods altar for mons
have ever heard him say ought against
my man. In the heat of political dis,
F'ussion when Dem0crts We're fiercely at
lacking his theories, and when Prohibit
tionists were calling into question his
Christian character, he stood calmly amid
t all and doubtless for those that called
nto question his Christian sincerity he
,ftcn lifted silent and fervent prayer
THE manifestations and fruits of mis-
hlistian life were seen in his home with
his mother and his wife. From his Can
IN home every Sabbath morning, while
he was Governor of Ohio, he took upon
his own arm his aged mother to the
Sanctuary OF God. Here they knet to-
ether before one mercy seat, and the
Father Of all mercies. In his private
domestic lif" he was all tenderness and
leyotion. And yet, my friends, that IN
lothihg less than we have right to
'Npect Of all Christian men.
Sleep on. thou martyred one. sleep on.
May thy last words, Gods will be done,
BE comfort balm and solace meet

Yes. sleep on until thou shalt be cali

May Build Settling Pond.

For sometime the commissioners have

riginated with the late president of the

, gency arise He communicated his
thoughts on the matter to his fellow
members and the question was talkF;i
over ut various meetings of the board.
Mr.. porters idea was to buy tract
of land at some convenient place and
build basin with capacity of several
hundreds of thousands gallons. When
he first spoke of the matter the necessity
OF settling pond was apparent to him
from the fact that at the time to give
adequate supply to the city it was neces-
sary to pump the water from the race
directly into the reservoirs. There was
not time for the water to settle and
consequently for period Of severol
days it was muddy.
1t was with view OF remedying this
condition OF affairs that Mr.. Porter sug-
gested the settling pond. Since his death
the matter has been talked over num-
her OF rimes at meetings Of the board
and at least the two commissioners men,
toned believe the plan good one. But
owing to tho fact that the department
has for sometime had on hand work OF
improvement involving considerable ex.
pendture the subject never has been
brought up for action.

and half barrel keg about half full with

which to comply with or refuse to com
ply with tho demand. and as everything
indicates that he will refuse, the newt

will be taken into court for settlement.
In this event it will 40 over to the Nov

wing, where hoys are to be confined.
twenty cells will be erected for the pres

where all prisoners, IL they are not re.
fractory, will take their meals.
The place where the prisoners will dine
bears close resemblance to the benches
in Quaker meeting house. The prison
ers will all face one way, sitting on plain
substantial wooden benches with n shelf
arrangement in front of them upon which
the food will bs served. This will en-
able the guards to watch them closely.
Though tho arrangements for religi
