A BRILLIANT AFFAIR.

The entertainment given in the CITY
park Friday night, by the Marietta
Rifles and Gem City Band, was attend
ed by the largest crowd we have ever
seen in the park.
The park was brilliantly illuminated
by candles, japanese lanterns and cleo
trio lights, and presented a beautiful
appearance. The band discoursed music
throughout the evening, to the delight
OF all. The military company gave an
exhibition drill. Tents in miniature
were put up, typical of the regular
military encampment, while large tents
were in evidence FOR various purposes
The young ladies were kept busy serv-
ing ice cream, sherbert lemonade and
cake, and the supply was inadeouate
to the demand. Twice as much couId
have been sold. About s50was realized
Miss Regina Rambo was elected soop.

THE GOBER BLOCK.

1t is with good deal of qualification
that the citizens of Marietta have seen
the burned block, known as the Elm
wood and Brantley buildings, again
rebuilt by Judge George F. Gober, the
owner, who has shown an invincible
pluck and determination under the
most discouraging circumstances. This
splendid block consists of five two
story store buildings, on south side of
square, all rented to good tenants.
The postoffice occupies the corner one

rooms; DIR. w. NJ. Kemp two rooms !;
DR.. e. H. Field two nicely fitted up
rooms Solicitor General B. F. Simpson
takes an office room and so does Col
j. P, Cheney. Across the hall is a
large, beautifully pepered and elegant
ly furnished lodge room, used by the
Odd Fellows, Masons and Knights of
Pythias. Over the postoffice, and in
rear room on ground floor, the Mari
eta Journal has roomy quarters. The
building presents an imposing appear
ance, has toilet rooms closets and mod
ern conveniences, and is a credit to the
enterprising and public spirited owner.
The J, ]. Black Lumber Co., were the
contractors, and pushed things from
the start in an energetic manner; the
Dobbs Hardware Co, did the plumbing
and roofing, and Mr.. Fred SchiIling the
cornice work, fully sustaining their
reputation as pains taking and hustling
contractors.
Such buildings add greatly to the
town, its business facilities, progress
and prosperity.

After months Of planning and prep
aratlon, Des Moines is now ready to
entertain the twelfth triennial session
Of the National Council of Congrega-
tional churches in the United States
and church societies. whose first ses-
sion opens Thursday, October 10. in
the Plymouth Congregational church.
Without doubt it will be the largest
church convention in point of numbers
ever held in the city, and the most dis
tinguished men in the Congregational
church will be present.
Three years ago, when the last ses-
sion of the council was held in Port
land, Me-, the Rev. F. J. Van Horn,
then pastor of the Plymouth Congrega-
tional church Of this city, extended an
invitation to the council to come to the
capital city of Iowa, and it was unani-
mously accepted. The three years have
passed and the big event, to which not
only Des Moines people, but people of
the entire state, have been looking with
great interest, begins Thursday, and
continues for a week. Six years ago
the convention met in Portland, Ore,
three years ago in Portland Me-, ana
this session is held in Des Moines, be-
ing a point half way between the two
former meeting places.
For the first time in the history of the
council the cooperating societies of
the church will meet at the same time
as does the larger body. These socie-
ties are the Congregational Educa-
tional society. organized in 1915. to aid
the colleges and seminaries of the de-
nomination; the Congregational Sunday
School and Publishing society, or
ganized for the purpose of pushing
Sunday school work; the Congrega-
tional Church Building society, for the
purpose of aiding church building: the
American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions. and the Congrega-
tional Home Missionary society. The
coming together Of these different
bodies will mean fully 1000 actual dele
gates. besides a large number of visit
ors and friends. The sessions will be

held in the Plymouth Congregational
church. with the exception of few
evenings when the Christian and Bap-
fist church auditoriums will be used
for the accommodation of some Of the
society meetings.
Delegates are already coming to the
city, and by Thursday it is estimated
fully 1000 people from without the city
will be here. Entertainment will be
provided for all the regular delegates
at the homes of the Congregationalists
while the officers and speakers on the
programme will be entertained at the
hotels throughout the seven days ses-
sion. The strangers will be met at the
depots by members Of the committees.
who will escort them to the Central
Presbyterian church. where the COM
mittee on entertainment, under the di-
rection Of S. A. Merrill. will assign
them to their places. The Commercial
exchange will cooperate as far as pos
sible with the various committees in
conducting an information bureau in
the club rooms, and rendering such as
sistance as is possible. Modest official
badges are now being prepared for the
delegates, each body having a badge
of it's own. Meals will be served in
Plymouth church both noon and even
ing, and breakfast is furnished the
guest at the home where entertain

would otherwise come.
The American Board OF Foreign Mis-
sions meets at Grinnell Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday of this week,
and all of the delegates and visitors
will come on special train to Des
Moines Thursday afternoon.
The national council is the advisory
body of the Congregational church. 1t
is neither legislative nor executive and
can only recommend or resolve upon
measures to be brought up and consid-
cred by the various church societies. 1t
is composed Of the representatives of
the Congregational churches through
out the United States. Not only do
they meet for discussion of matters of
Iowa state bystander. [volume] (Des Moines, Iowa) 1894-1916, 1904-10-14

denomination interest, but also for dis
cussion of social, educational and re-
ligious questions. Among the vital
questions to be taken up al this session
are those of capital and labor, poiyg-
amy and divorce.
While the council has none of the
legislative powers as does the general
conference of the Methodist church nor
the general assembly of the Presbyte-
rian church, yet in way it bears
similar relation to Congregationalism
in general as do the leading bodies OF
the other two denominations. 1t is the
most important body connected with
the Congregational church. The church
government is left to each individual
congregation.
While throughout the middle west
and also farther west, Congregational
ism is not as strong as in the east, it
is believed that the present convention
will greatly stimulate Congregational
ism not only in Des Moines and Iowa,
but in adjoining states. The cheap
railroad rates will permit Iowa people
to attend the sessions in large num-
bers. The presence Of the leading men
of the church will attract large crowds
and their addresses will be given con-
siderable attention. Extensive reports
of the meetings will be published in
the daily papers and generally read.
From such a narray of brilliant men
it is difficult to name those in whom
the public generally will be most inter-
ested.
Certain it is that the appearance of
the Rev. Newell Dwight Hills of
Brooklyn. n. Y, in an address on Mon
day evening, October II. will be looked
forward to with much interest by Des
Moines. Being an Iowa boy and hav-
ing appeared here number of times,
Des Moines people feel acquainted with
him.
The Rev. Lyman J. Abbott of New
York city, n. Y, editor of the Outlook,
and considered one of the most distin-
guished preachers of the country, will

Rev. George A. Gates of Claremont

In many of the services live topics

great interest in the services.
