VOL Of Rreakfast Mission.

The Sunday Breakfast Mission is
continuing its excellent work this year
on a larger scale than ever. One hun
dred and seventy men were fed at the
mission house on Sunday. and 81 were
lodged. on practically the same day
last year only so were fed and 81
lodged
During the services 80 men requested
prayer and fourteen went to the altar.
The mission is doing everything pos
sible for the unfortunates. both spirit
ually and materially. During the last
three days there have been from twelve
10 fifteen men employed putting in
wood. and the mission is besieged daily
by poor persons. Last year the mis-
sion lodged 1866 persons and fur
nished meals for 16,4sS. This was until
the first OF the present year.
The Sunday school attached to the
mission is fiourishing and is generally
attended largely. There are two classes
One for men and the other for women

BONDING OF OFFICIALS.

g ONE of the successful candidates at the re-
cent election are now put to the necessity
OF securing private bondsmen an unpleasant task
that devoves upon them because the law requires
that such private sureties must be obtained
This subject Of privGte sureties should be taken
up at the coming session of the Legislature and
provision made so that the bonding companies
may be permitted to furnish surety for State or
county officials And, il necessary. the county or
State should pay for the surety. Private persons
should not be forced to act for State officials
Recently we have had several instances of nd-
vduals suretes being mulcted in large
amounts by dcfarlting officials. There ought to
be no objection to bonding companies acting as
suretes. In fact we do not believe there will
be objection when the matter is presented to the
law-making body. The law has not been changed
merely because there has been no agitation for
change
But the business of the State and county
should be conducted by methods employed in
private business and the bonding companies Of
course are accepted without question by private
business institutions that require bonds OF their
employees.

nized
