SCHOOL BONDS ARE SOLD
Issue of 100000 Goes to Estabrook
p. & Company Practically at
i Their Par Value:.'

The bid of E. L. Estabrook and company
of Boston and New York for the 100000
school bond issue has been accepted by
the council ways and means committee.
The committee had no alternative, as but
one bid was received. The lone bid was
practically at par, the entire premium on
the issue being but $74. These bonds ruin
for thirty years and bear interest at 31s
per cent. :'.
Not a single bid was received for the
$500, 900 issue Of permanent Improvement
bonds. There is thought to be little doubt
but that plenty of bids would have been
received had the bonds been issued for
longer time. The council will probably
readvertise for long time bonds at a speH
cial meeting this evening, as the legisla-
ture has authorized the change to the
longer term. .-.,
Board Member Disappointed.
Director N. F. Hawley of the board of
education, expressed himself as greatly
disappointed at the low price brought by
the school bonds. 1.-THE council" said he,
.rnade mistake in taking the city con-
4 troller's advice as to how long the bonds
Z should run. He made a break in urging
the issuance Of short term bonds, a fact
that is strongly emphasized by the fact
that but one bid was received Z.
81 The controller insists that the tight
money market is largely responsible for
the low premium. The premium for the
5000, 900 Of school bonds issued in 1889 was
$7.O4 a hundred.

A BRANCH IN MPLs.
Seventh Day Adventists Will Follow
Direction of Mrs. White,
Their Prophecies.
And Will No Longer Concentrate
Their Efforts at Battle
Greek, Mich.

Despite the recent prophecy of Sister
Ellen G. White, the noted prophecies of
the Seventh Dad Adventists, that sect will
not abandon its flourishing institutions at
Battle Creek, Mich. 1.-The public has mis-
understood the nature Of Mrs. Whites
prophecy explained Elder J. F. Pogue,
leader Of the 200 Adventists in Mime
apolis this morning.
Mrs. Whites vision revealed to her
that we ought to scatter from Battle
Creek. But that didn't mean that we
should abandon our big sanatorium there
and give up all our big factories of cereal
foods. No, it simply meant that we should
find spiritual and secular profit in not
confiping our operations so much to this
one center. We ought to establish branch
institutions thruout the world. The sub
ject has been discussed more or less ever
since our printing plant was burned at
Battle Creek about two months ago.
Mrs. Whites Prophecies.
Miss Ellen Harmon, was our original
prophecies, the only one we have ever had.
She has been with us from the begin
ming of our sect. She had her first vision
at Portland, Me-, in 1874 when she was
a young girl. She married Elder James
White not long afterwards, and they and
Elder Joseph Bates were among the or
years ago. Elder White is now dead, but
his wife, who is about rs years Of age, is
living at Saint Helena, Cal.
| Her Visions and prophecies have usually
related to interpretations Of the Scripture
| Sometimes she has announced the course
| that we should follow and we have con-
| sidered her advice at our general confer
! ence, and she has usually given such good
| reasons for her belief that we have
adopted the course she advised.
'This time, for instance, she related
a vision to the general conference that
has just adjourned at Oakland, Cal. She
said she had seen the Adventists scat
ter from Battle Creek. That is, she ex-

In company with the two men making

his machine at spot which Mr.. Hurl-

Hurlburt took a running start and went
up in first-class style. When he was
ready to come down the police were on
hand to receive him. They congratulated
the young rider and arrested him at the
same time. The police fornalities were
soon over and he will leave for home to-
night. The steps are steep and the feat
is highly regarded by the experts at the
