erned by president and executive
council; this council consists of a
vice president from each one of the
states. Your vice president is Capt
Baker. the vice president of each
state is expected to take charge of
the financial end of the matter from
his own state, and you ought all Of
you to get your names upon the roll
by handing in your dollar to Capt.
/. P. Baker. A certificate of mem
bership will be mailed you from
Sioux City, and make you member
of this organization. It has been
suggested that one method of i'm
pressing the country that the Mis-
souri, river is navigable, that there
are cities of ten, fifty and hundreds
of thousands located upon its banks,
would be this summer to start a fleet
down the river with the governor
and members of congress and our
representatives composing this body,
let the cities join in the excursion.
BY the time they get down to Mr..
Ellis's town they would have to
build a new hotel to accommodate
them, 1t would be second only to the
Memphis excursion. 1t would call
attention to the country and to the
people living along this river. This
is not worked out but it is one the
council will take up and personally
I hope they will approve of it.
am pleased to be here, pleased to
know that every one along the line
OF the river is becoming acquainted
with this project. Sioux City and
Omaha and Council Bluffs, these
towns did not send any one down to
the Memphis convention. they were
dormant, as Mr.. Ellis stated, but
there is no necessity for that now.
We are awake and think we will
stay awake.

A Scottish gentleman paying visit
to London was taken by his nephew to
q service in st. Paurs cathedral. lie
had no acquaintance whatever with
the liturgy Of the Church of England.
He picked up prayer book and be-
came very much interested, but as he
turned over the leaves his face be-
came clouded with a look of intense
anxiety. He placed the prayer book
carefully down, looked cautiously
around, picked up his hat and crept
stealthily to the door. His nephew
followed him and said:
care you i'll, uncle? What is the
matter?"
The uncle replied: "No. But it -
enough to make any man ill to see the
number of collections made in this
kirk!'
'.CollectionsI' said the nephew, In
surprise. IF there is any at all, there
certainly won't be more than one"
'Well," said the uncle, ..they should
mo- mark SO many in the book. There's
naething but collect and bits OF
prayer, then collect and more prayers,
and collect again. And says I to my
sci, IF / bide here until all these coll
