of the organization since its beginning
two years ago, and of the good which
had been accomplished through the
efforts of the league membership. The
league follows four different lines Of
work in connection with the church,
religious, personal, social and general
church work. In all of these lines the
league has served faithfully and has
carried out the plans which were laid
out for it al its installation. The league
has also been of great aid in a mate
rial way to the church, having aided
many of the branches of the work
The Bible in Our Schools" was the
theme of a paper which had been pre-
/ pared by Michael BOllman. In this
paper, Mr.. BolIman discussed the re
cent decision of the state supreme
court, which holds the use of the bible
! in the public schools unlawful. ]. D.

why are There so Many Denomin-
atoms in the church," This question
will be discussed at the Sunday club
meeting tomorrow afternoon at the Y.
IN. C. A. by DR.. H. w Reed. This
club meets at o'clock in the chapel.
Rev. E. T. Mcfarland will address
the B. G. NJ at 2:30. His topic is "Pit-
falls of Youth All boys from 10 years
| Of age upward are invited to attend.
Fifty boys heard the campfire talk
given by S. d. Cleland last night. The
chape! was tastefully decorated in
military style. Two stands of rifles,
with the flag, and small army tent
with a campfire in front of it, made
fitting scene for the occasion. Mr.. Gle
land held the closest interest of the
boys as he told them stories of his per
sonaI experiences in enlisting, on the
battlefield, under fire, in camp, etc.
The next campfire talk will be given
on Thursday evening, Dew. 29. The
speaker and subject will be announced
later.
ANY person who doubts the need of
new building for Rock Islands young
men would have been enlightened by a
visit TO the building last night. With
the regular class in the gymnasium,
followed by the game, and with the us
ual number of men wanting baths, the
locker rooms and bathrooms were not
half large enough to hold the men.
The gymnasium was crowded with
spectators, many of whom could not
see the games because of the lack of
room. In addition there was the regu-
lar Friday night crowd of older boys
and younger men down to paly games
and read in the reading room. until
there was little satisfaction for anyone
because of the crowded condition. The
game room is only large enough to &C
commodate a few of those wishing to
play, and the reading room is in the
some proportion. When two classes
mix in the locker room there is sad
shortage of space, and when two or
three dozen want baths at the same
time, six showers will not go very far
toward meeting the need. The mem
bership of the association lacks only
- at present of reaching the 400
mark No doubt the latter figure will
be attained within a few days. The ar
ISOLATION is maintaining large vari-
etv of activities in the effort to pro-
vide for all these members, but in the
present crowded quarters it is impossi-
bic to do the best work The result,
will probably be that the members
themselves will be compelled to under
take some plan of enlarging the space
so as to get accommodations. There
is a grand opportunity waiting for
someone to make a start in the matter
which will make it possible for the
much needed new building TO be Sc
cured.

Runs Down a New Clue.

Sheriff c. S. Smith was in the city
Friday and reported that the man held
at Falls City on suspicion as being the
assailant of Mrs. B. C. Stanfield is not
guilty of the act and will no doubt be
turned loose in a few days. Accord
ing to Sheriff Smith, j. II. Malone
bankers detective of Lincoln, was at
Falls City and put the prisoner there
through the third degree" after
which he made it known to Sheriff
Smith that he was confident that the
man was innocent. A photograph of
the man was shown by Sheriff Smith
and in no way does the picture tally
with the description given by Mrs.
Stantield of her assailant. The man
in the picture wears sweater, jump
er and overalls, has straight long hair
and is slender of build. The authori-
ties have no means given up the case,
and are running down a clue which
they believe will show the case up in
its true light.

the young woman and now he has

A Colorado paper says of the ro-
nance:
The records of the county clerk
show marriage license granted yes
terday to Claude Killen of Holly, Colo
and Miss Louise Phillips of Manzano-

ment lies most interesting romance.
The bride is a resident of Swink, and
has. for the past two years, been in
charge of the Kintner-Potter Mercan-
tile company. Not only is Miss Phil

One night this winter, during the
operation of the sugar factory, Mrs.
Phillips, in company with party of
friends, was visiting the plant when
by accident she sustained an injury
by fall. Being taken to the labora-
tory, Mr.. Killen, who was in charge,
applied the necessary medical aid ana
brought comfort to the sufferer. This
was the beginning of the romance,
which has run since that time and cul-
minated yesterday forenoon in the two

the above related incident, Mr.. Killen
saw much of his bride and his atten-
lions were marked, yet no one suspect.
ed the elopement which took place.
Tuesday afternoon Miss Phillips
went to Rocky Ford, presumably to
purchase some goods. She was met
however, by Mr.. Killen, who followed
on a later train. Remaining in that
city several hours, they then journeyed
to the county seat, thus throwing their
friends from any possible clue as tc
their whereabouts. So, bright and
was secured and before Rev. Mr.. Nor

the two happy hearts were united as
early this morning a marriage license

Northwestern Sends Publicity Man
Here to Gather Data.


Manager Butler of the publicity bu.
reau of the Northwestern railroad
company, with headquarters at Chi
cago, was in the city Friday calling on
officers of the Norfolk Commercial
club with view of making Norfolk a
feature in the Northwestern's new
folder. Mr.. Butler did not state just
what material he wanted from Norfolk
for his booklet, but stated that he
would confer later with the officers of
the Commercial club for what he will
require.
Photographs of various business
houses and industries may be fea-
ture, it is said. The many chances for
new businesses will also be discussed
in the folder. Mr.. Butler stated that
his folder should at this time be ready
for the press and the former North
western agent mere should have gath
cred all information required by him
some time ago. This, however, was
not done, and Mr.. Butler is now here
to do this work himself.
When question was put to Mr.
Butler about the new proposed depot
at the Junction, he said he believed
the plans for the depot at the juno,
ton had been completed by his road
and the only drawback to the going
ahead with the building was the ques
ton of whether the road would put on
dining car service or continue the eat
| ing house proposition.
