WHAT THE nEleHBoRs SAY.
Opinions of County Exchanges Re.
aardine the Missouri Pacific.

Falls City Is to set the division of
the Missouri Pacific. 1t is we'll that
the citizens of that burg are not par
ticular enough to look their gift horse
In the mouth.-Auburn Republican.
About the only effect that the re-
moval of the division from Auburn
To Falls City will be to mark a semi
colon in the history of the city.-Au-
burn Republican.
Incident to the establishing of the
new freight division at that place,
Falls City is in midst of discussion ON
several matters of public policy. such
as extending the city limits, paving the
business district and furnishing all
day service at the power house for
the benefit of those who wish cleo
trio motors.-Humboldt Leader.
To give some idea of what the NJ.
p. is doing in the way of surface i'm
provements, Mr.. McManus, roadmas-
ter for this division, says that the
team work alone amounts at present
to over ten thousand dollars a month.
Verdon Vedette.
The division coming to Falls City"
is no longer a vision but an estab-
lished fact -Verdon Vedette.
Falls City is now sure of the Mis-
souri, Pacific freight division between
Kansas City and Omaha. Falls City
gave t~hirty-five acres of land at a
cost of $12, 800. The land was pur-
chased from J. II. Miles and is To-
Gated south of the Burlington yards.
The company agrees to begin work
at once, and to spend 5000. 900 build
ing terminals, which will include seven
miles of side track and an eighteen
stall round house. 1t is said 500, coo
has also been set aside to cut down
Freezing hill and probably build a
new depot.-Stella Press.
AS stated in this paper a couple of
weeks ago, there was a strong rumo
that the Nj. p, was intending to make
Falls City a division point. This time
it appears that the fumor was found
ed on a basis of fact. A dispatch
from Falls City states that the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad has secured by
donation thirty-five acres of land east
of the Burlington depot at that place
on which to build freight division
yards to handle the traffic between
Kansas City and Omaha. The city
gave tie land and the company agrees
to spend 5000, 600 in building the ter
minals in January. The plans also
eontemplates the spending of another
$f00. coo in cutting down and chang
ing Freezing hill TO Straussville. The
work will begin in ten days. 1t is
Stated that this Will mcan the o
ing >of several families to Falls City,
the number being estimated various

breaches INITIAL SERMON.
Rev. j. E. Briggs Oficiates at Fifth
Baptist Church.

'The Mission of the Minister" was the
subject selected by Rev. John f. Briggs.
the new pastor Of the Fifth Baptist
Church, for his initial sermon yesterday
morning. He chose his text from Acts,
1O:25-the question Of st. Peter, ITO what
extent have ye sent for me?"
"I do not come as an entertainer" the
pastor said "I do not intend to speak on
the latest sensations, nor to compete with
the theater, the minstrel, or the moving
picture show. The world can beat US at
that any time.
II come as man! We do not need
more men but more man in The minis
try l endeavor to come as man., up
right, outright, downright; man from
head to heel, from center to clrcumfer-
ence, from core to cuticle.
"The pastor of modern church, In this
complex age has to do more headWork
than the banker, more visiting than the
doctor more writing that the editor,
more speaking than the lawyer; has to
fiatter more women, kiss more babies
than successful politician in hot,y

Il come not to pe a nurse. The church
is not a hospital; it is an army. 1t is
not the ministers mission to coddle saints.
but to convert sinners. If he must spend
his time in tying up bruised toes, pulling
out Sp.inters, attending teas, StraiShten-
ing out crumpled feelings, what time
would he have to study, to mediate, to
pray and In make preparations to lead
the lost to Jesus?
