STEINER OPENS sEARcHLleHT.
First Meeting of Y. M. c. A. Club is
Held,

With an attendance and a spirit
manifested that gives promise of a
successful season, the initial meeting
of the Searchlight Club, of the Rail-
road Y. NJ. c. A, was held at the as
ISOLATION building Tuesday night.
About seventy men took supper, and
when ii was finished, I. O. Kemble. vice
president of the club. presided and in
troduced DR.. E. A. Steiner, of Grinnell,
who spoke on THE Spirit of Frater-
nalisn." DR.. Steiner handled his sub
jet from the standpoint of a universal
lf-aternalism Of men, which binds the
4 individual closer to his neighbor in a
sympathy of feeling and endeavor
] DR.. Steiner spoke of the synapa thy
men should have for men, the synpa-
thy that men have achieved should
have for men who have failed, and the
sympathy that men have failed should
hold for those who have succeeded.
He gave as an illustration of what
class and clique meant in the develop
nent of a country by pointing to India,
which is split into classes and castles
and has no binding ties that tend to
aid in the general development.
He said that men cultivate a right
themselves, and that they should be
conscious of the fact that there are No
self-made men, and what we have
comes thru divine providence. We
should always be humble, he said, j,
the presence of the man who has no
achieved things. He declared he Eel
humble in the presence of man VIII
had failed, because he himself nigh
have failed or might yet fail, were
not for the grace of God.
We ought, he continued, to have
sense of respect for the human with
out regard for class. In this city. h
said, we ought to cultivate an attitud
of sympathy, without any artificis
sentiment behind it. He thought tn
Searchlight Club should be the cente
of character, intelligence and sobriet.
and that we should become one for tn
individual and common good of nc
only the city but of America.
A long discussion, touching on var
Gus phases of the speakers subjec
followed the address.

AGREE ON PROPORTIONS.
Controversy Arises With contraete
CIeary Over Dam Work.

At special meeting of the city I
council. held Monday night, the council /
threshed out the merits of a contro- |
versy with Contractor Cleary. who is
building the concrete dam. City En-
gineer Steiner had called the councils !
attention to the proportions in the mix
ture for the concrete, maintaining that !
they We're not right, and after a
lengthy discussion a compromise was
agreed to. The original contract with
Mr.. Cleary called for one part of ce-
ment to three of sand and six Of stone
in the retaining walls, and 1-215-4 for
the dam. Later Mr.. Ceary made a
proposition TO the council that. if the
city could consent to substitution of
gravel for stone, he would deduct 81
per yard on the price.
In a caucus held it was agreed by
the council that the contractor might
substitute the sand, but it is maintain
j ed that there was no agreement as to
the proportions. Mr.. Cleary wanted to
1 make the mixture one of cement to six
of gravel, and this, Engineer Steiner
/ objected 10 in the caucus. Gregory
also maintained that a l to mixture
4 was not rich enough in cement.
When the engineer found that
to mixture was being used he called
the councils attention to it. still in
sisting that the proportions of fine sand
and gravel We're not right to take
to 6 mixture. for the reason that by
screening thru quarter-inch mesh
sieve showed ten parts of sand to three
of gravel when the proper proportion
should be three parts of sand and five
parts of gravel In other words the
he 10 H.
would be required to form a proper
bond.
Mr.. Cleary asked the council to leave
to him the method and proportions in
; the mixture, and he would build dam
that would be satisfactory, under his
. bond. Councilmen Gregory, Herman
Hull, and McCarten, favored UNFOLDING
the engineer, taking the position thai
the city had an engineer whose duty II
was to look after the city's interests
