The shirt waist movement is on in
Princeton. Last Sunday evening at the
Christian church, Ed, J.. b. Davis, at
the beginning Of his lecture, informed
the men that they were at liberty to
remove their coats, if they we're too
warm. Nor did he stop at that. He
told the women that they could attend
church in their mother hubbards, if they
wished. Now, that's the idea! It's not
the clothes that makes the man. If q
man goes in his shirt sleeves, at his
place Of business, or on the street, or at
home, why put on his coat and swelter
in hot church? A coat in hot weather
causes more cuss words than all other
things combined, and in church is the
last place it should be. Davis is wise.
He figures on less coat aud more religion.

Burlington was in the throes of excite
ment over the alleged theft of $4,000
package from the Adams Express com.
pany. Many people were held under
suspicion, but to no avail. Now the
story comes from Chicago that the pack
age never contained money but was
merely an arrangement between the
banks and the express company to de.
termine liability for loss. The story is
that the clerk, acting under orders of
his bank, and with the consent of the
Adams Express company, put up pack
age which actually arrived at Burlington.
The Chicago bank sent the money on
the next train and it was given out that
u settlement had been effected between
the express company and the bank in
Chicago, covering the loss. However,

loss as basis, the bank and Adams ~.
