Last Monday morning at $3.50
a. m, Bishop Williams of Oma

pressive of any in the church
rites and is only conferred by
the bishop. The class last year
was slightly larges than this
year. Rev. Smith assisted the
bishop in his work.
Those who thus entered as
members of the Episcopalian

Freight Wreck.

A freight train on the NJ. p.
was wrecked about 1890 Wed
nesday morning, between this
city and Reserve, Kansas.
The accident occurred at the
bridge south of here where
workmen had been repairing
the track. The train did not
stop in time, coming too close
to the weakened bridge, being
the cause. The engine turned
turtle in the creek bed, while
six freight cars were turned
over on the other side of the
track. Strange to say, no one
was injured which is certainly
very fortunate considering the
entent of damage. The after.
noon NJ. p. Passenger trains
came in over the G.. b. & O.
line

FlOater at RulO.

While at work on the rip.rap.
ping of the Missouri river bank
about three miles southeast of
Rulo some of the workmen found
a body floating in the river and
brought it to shore. This hap
pened about 3 o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon, and the coroner
being notified, Sheriff Fenton
and DR.. Reneker arrived at the
scene shortly after 4 o'clock.
The body had probably been
in the water fourteen or fifteen
days. and was beyond recogni-
ton. A plate attached to a
key ring found in the pocket of
his clothing was inscribed, sd.
Campbell, Marshall, Brownville
NIB. &"
Sheriff Fenton immediately
wired to the justice of the peace
at Brownville, but he knew of
no such a name or party. Ac-
cordingly the corpse was buried
by the coroner's directions Mt
O'Clock Wednesday morning in
the Rulo cemetery. AS close as
can be judged, the man was
about 26 years of age, was we'll
built and of medium size.

Rev, Smith to st. Luke's

Sunday morning Rev. Henry
Benton Smith delivered h 5
farewell sermon at the Episco.
pal church, of which he has
been pastor for several years.
He accepted a call to the st.
Luke's church at Lincoln. Neb
and assumed that pastorate on
Tuesday.
Rev. Smith has that pleasant,
sociable tempermant which in
varIably wins firm and lasting
friends and Falls City folk, not
only in the church but on the
outside as we'll, regret the de.
parture of such a man. He is
one of the ablest men in the
ministry and has unbounded sue
cess in his church work. While
we are sorry of his decision to
remove from our midst, still we
wish him unlimited opportuni,
ties in his new field.

RemOnStranceS Filed.

A resistance, by remonstrance,
to the granting of a license to
each and every saloon keeper,
has been filed with the city
clerk. The recent fight made
by the prohibition party has
not died down, these petitions
showing their activity in the
field. These remonstranCes are
almost alike in form and word
ing, varying little, if any, and
ask that no license to sell liquor
in any form, be granted by the
city council and mayor to their
petitions.
There are nine specific reas,
ons set forth in the remon.
strances among which are the
following: That liquor had been
sold by petitioners on Sunday,
had been sold to habitual drunk
ards, had sold adulterated
liquor, had billiard tables in the
saloon room, had allowed minors
to frequent their places, had
violated the state liquor laws,
had not secured proper and suf-
ffcient signatures to their petit
tions and the publishing had
not been according to law.
This is the first time that
Falls City has ever experienced
such a situation and it is indeed
a great surprise to our citizens.
We understand that the petit
TONERS have secured legal serv-
ices and no doubt the hearing
will be held this week in order
to settle the affair

James Mcfarland, who was
so seriously injured at t h e
Pirate mine last week, is i'm
proving daily. With no COM
plications his physician assures
the family that he will soon be
restored to health. 1t will
probably be some time however
before he will be in shape for
the hard work he is accustomed
to do. 1t was certainly a close
ell and only his wonderful
physique saved him from death.

The members of the Woman's

planting their flower garden
west of the library building, on
Tuesday of this week. The
bare, vacant lot was trans
formed into a place of beauty
by the untiring work of the

A FALSE VIEW.

On the Sunday following the
appalling disaster at San Fran
cisco clergymen all over the ma
ton preached the doctrine of an
avenging God. San Francisco
was wicked and God had deS-
troyed it because OF its iniquity
they said. ! would hate that
kind of God. San Francisco was
wicked, but no more so than
other coast cities. What do you
think the good people of the
stricken city, and there are many
thousands of good people in San
Francisco, would think of Just
God who would destroy their
property, take the lives of theri
friends and families, to satisfy
his vengeance against those who
are wicked? Nonsense. 1t is
such narrownesS that retards the
progress of Christianity. 1t is
such perverted views of God that
keeps men from becoming follow
ers of the Christian religion.
The hand of God is seen in the
great heart of the American
people sending train load after
train load of provisions to the
destitute and suffering. | would
rather believe in God that
taught the lessons of charity,
that placed in the heart of human
kind the love of its fellow and
eXemplified the great enduring
brotherhood of man, than to be-
lievc in monster who would i'm
poverish hundreds of thousands
and bring untold grief and suf-
fering to the pure and innocent.

City Affairs.

OF closing, so TAR as possible,
the business affairs of the city
for the municipal year just
ended.
Chairman Windle called the
meeting to order, owing to the
absence of Mayor Leyda from
the city, who, however, had ar.
ranged to meet with them later
in the evening upon his return.
After reading the minutes,
hearing reports of the various
committees and auditing a few
stray bills that were presented,
the finance committee submitted
lengthy report asking the
privilege of being continued for
short time to complete their
work. They also asked that
they be allowed to make minor
charges in the report should
the same become necessary from
their farther investigation.
From the report submitted
every fund should be amply
supplied with case to meet any
obligation, and a neat balance
on hand to turn over to the new
administration. The @ |
amount in the various funds
amounted to something over
| Sc, 900. Should this amount of
cash be available, the new adj
ministratlon should certainly
be IN shape for the numerous
needed improvements about our
city, after cashing all out
standing warrants.
We understand that an expert
accountant has been at work on
the records, going back for sew
eral years, and the above re-
port is based upon his investi-
CATION. That there is not that
amount of cash on hand, the ad-
ministration admit and will be
ready to report in detail at
their next meeting.
Mayor Leyda appeared upon
the scene during the report of
of the finance committee and
after the arrangement of con-
tinuanCe for the committee, pro-
Ceeded to swear in the newly
elected mayor, Prof. Barrett.
Mayor Leyda made few clos
ing remarks to the council, set
ting forth the pleasure their aid
had added to his official labor,
and telling them that after they
had served the public long
enough to be retired, as he and
Councilman Powell had been, it
would be with the same degree
of pleasure.
DR.. Fast was then admins
tered the oath of office, and
Mayor Barrett announced his
appointments, which in time
were confirmed by the council.
The bonds of those who were
required to furnish them, were
submitted and the same ap-
proved. After the organization
was completed, the question of
granting saloon licences came
up and as remOnstrances had
been filed against each and
every applicant, both sides be-
ing represented, it was agreed
that the time of hearing should
be Monday, May Z, at s So'clock.
Nothing being filed against
the brewery or the drug stores,
action was taken on these appli-
cations and license granted the
former with permits to the latter
We understand that this is
the first time that action has
been taken against the saloons
in this city and the result will
be watched with interest.
