the world with the blood Of countless
multitudes.
Let us be just to the young men of
our own day. Considering the multi
plicity of avocations that are open to
them. we think our contemporary Is
unduly pessinstic in it's survey Of the
numbers who are called and chosen to
the ministry. Never was the church
better. more thoroughly or unselflshly
served, nor those who serve II less gen.
erously rewarded, IL their labors are
measured by the ordinary standards Of
modern life. In the church Of this
country there Is practically no prefer
ment, no ecclesiastical benefces, no
Simonical presentations, no delectable
livlngs to adjust the balance between
the two worlds. Even in these few re-
ligious bodies that maintain hierarchial
gradation 1t is the Office and not It's
emolument that endows its incumbent.
The impelling motive which induces
young men to enter the ranks of the
clergy are, we believe, as widespread
and as fruitful now as they ever were.

Vans fer moving household furniture
from oneicity to another are much more
common in Germany and other parts Of
Europe than in the United States. These
vans, which are owned by companies

for their destination. Here. they z.e

Of extra dTayaEe, and OF the danger of

better and happier for their existence.
The presentation Of prizes to the cap
tains of the organizations that had been
working for membership was the event
looked forward to. as on the progremme it
was stated that the prizes would be pre-
scented by THE finest girl In the city"
and every person present was on the
qui Vive to learn what young lady bore
this title in so large gathering.
E&Finest Girl in the CITY,

announced that the finest girl would
appear and instantly every person rose

had outdistanced the Blues in securing
money for the association. H. c. Sapser

himself and Jacobson that Jacobson told
him the old man always had money on
his person, and also had money hidden
in the cellar, also that it was agreed that
Larson should take what money the old
man had on his person, but not to look
for the money supposed to be hidden in
the cellar.
Larson said he went to Mr.. Johnson's
house the day of the murder and found
the old man cleaning seed wheat; that he
helped him for a while and then fired
five shots at Johnson and killed him,
searched his pockets and found a little
over $11, which he took and left the place.
Jacobson has very peculiar gait and
tracks were found which corresponded
exactly with tracks which were later
made by Jacobson leading across the
ground to Johnson's house. The theory is
that jacobson went to the house expect
ing to find money hidden. The examina-
ton is still in progress, but enough testi-
mony has been introduced to warrant
the holding of Jacobson to await the ac-
tion of the grand jury. Larson implicated
no one but himself and Jacobson.

HOUSE OF HOPE CHURCH ADOPTS
AN INNOVATION.

According to the report of the various
benevolent societies of the House Of Hope
church. made at the annual meeting last
night, the congregation raised last year
for all purposes nearly $4,000. The treas
urer's report showed that all obligations
had been met and that a liberal amount
of money Is in the treasury.
1t was decided by the Congregation that
the present system OF pew rentals should
be abolished and pews assigned to those
who subscribe to the support of the
church. The board of trustees recon
mended this change and think that 1t will
increase the income of the church
The clerks report showed that seventy
members had been received into the
church during the past year. OF this
number, twenty-nIne were received at the
chapel, where great amount of work
has been accomplished.
The Woman.s HONS Missionary
society of the church sent out six boxes
to the various missionaries. Tie value of
these was $1,1O0.
