Attorney General H. w. Byers ap-
peared before the interstate commerce
commission at Washington and argued
board of railroad commissioners OF
Iowa against the Dunleith G. Dubuque
Bridge Company and several railroads,
which case involves the question of
making the railroad bridge at Du-
buque free and open.
The state of Iowa claims that this
bridge, while nominally owned by a
bridge company, is in fact owned by
the Illinois Central Railroad Company.
because the railroad company owns
all the stock of the bridge company:
hence that the organization and main
tenance Of separate companies for the
bridge is a ~subterfuge, The railroad
company has always charged a bridge
arbitrary for both passengers and
freight on the ground that it
was not the owner of the bridge and
has to pay a high rental for cross
ing. The Great Western and the Bur.
lington also cross the bridge.
Attorney General Byers in his argu-
ment before the interstate commerce
commission showed that the original
cost of the bridge, plus the repairs
and Improvements and the entire cost
Of maintenance for the 40 years of its
existence was about $2,771 900; but
that during this period there had been
collected from the shippers and trav-
elers in special bridge tolls about

No city of Iowa ever gave a more
royal welcome home to one OF her
sons than Marshalltown gave to Will
liam A. Sunday. the evangelist, when
he returned to the scenes of his boy
hood triumphs in many sports to
preach the gospel of righteousness.
The fame of BILLY" Sunday is ma
tion-wide. He has preached and ex-
horted and converted in many Of the
larger cities of the country. And
everywhere 1t is remembered that he
is an Iowa boy, a son of Marshall,
town, and that he once was a famous
baseball player. Few of the profess
SIGNALS ever won such glory in an out
field as Billy" Sunday. He was swift
of foot and sure and he was a run
getter. In the entirely different field
of soul-saving also he has proved a
sure winner.
And so it happened that Evangelist
Sunday received a cordial invitation
to return to his home town and to tell
the people of the Gospel of truth. He
said he would come, and Immediately
there was organization for the pur-
pose of preparing for him. There was
no hall in the city large enough for
the crowds that would want to see
and hear Our Billy" and a tenn
porary wigwam was decided upon.
But the time was short and haste was
necessary. Volunteers with ready and
willing hands were called for and they
responded. In a very few days the
wigwam was erected, and it was
seated to hold nearly six thousand
persons. But alas for the weakness
of human estimates. this capacity was
found inadequate. At times the

sons had confessed and were admit
ted to church membership. On the
Saturday and Sunday which marked
the close of three weeks over three
hundred accepted the Sunday invita-
ton. These were not all Marshall
town people. for special trains were
run that brought people from all the
towns round about. At the last Sur
day meeting more than fifteen hun
dred were turned away and the wig
wan was crowded.
Mr.. Sunday sways a crowd as If by
magic. He says it is not magic, but
the power of truth. Some say he is
sensational in the extreme and does
more harm than good. But Sunday
believes that life itself is sensational
and that dying is still more so. Some
say that Sunday is coarse and
abusive. but these are the ones whose
wrath he courts. Some say he uses
slang too much, but he catches the
crowd just the same. Here are some
Sundayisms:
Because they are on their way to
hell, there is nothing more foolish to
a lot of people than this revival.
You might as well try to stop the
limited express by putting a dish of
ice cream on the track, or stop a
cyclone by splitting at it, as to try to
stop the spread of religion or the
power of Jesus Christ.
This tabernacle would not be stand
ing here If Jesus Christ was a fake.
You not only need a Saviour who
can save you from boozing, but you
need a Saviour who can keep you on

Photoqraphina the stars.

In measuring the sensitiveness of
Photographic plates at different tenn
peratures, so as to determine the best
temperature for star photography, an
English astronomer has discovered
the curious fact that for some plates
the best temperature for photograph
ing very faint stars and somewhat
brighter stars are not the anne. Thus
between "a and rs degrees ~centigrade
the plate becomes slower for faint
stars when slightly warmed, whereas
at the same time it becomes faster for
brighter stars. The expert in astro-
nomical photography will therefore
hereafter regulate the temperature of
his plates according to the brightness
of the particular celestial objects on
which he is working.
