GAVE ENCOURAGEMENT
Evangelist Tells the Church
Members of Faith.

ITO them that love God, all things
work together for good said the Rev.
H. D. Kennedy last evening. while
speaking TO large audience attend
ing the revival service at the First
NJ. f, church. The evangelist was quot
ing from the eighth chapter of the
epistle to the Romans by the Apostle
Paul. which he used as the text of his
sermon.
Rev. kennedy's remarks were most
ly encouragement for church members
urging them to be more trustful in the
Lord. incidentally he said that the
book OF Romans was an ideal key to
the character of Paul. and that the sin
gle phrase quoted gave true insight
into the apostles life. He showed how
PauIs career had been filled with
changes. both favorable and adverse,
and that in spite of appearances, the
changes always improved Paul's condi-
ton, and the apostle realized the fact.
The evangelist referred to numerous
other Biblical characters, as Joseph,
and proved the truth of his text by
these illustrations. His conclusion was
that even the hard places have valua-
BILE lessons. and should not be abhorr.
ed
The crowd which was very large
considering the inclement weather.
showed good spirit, and greatly appre-
ciated the sermon. One more person
was converted and received into the
church membership. making total OF
IL new members since the opening of
the services, eighteen days ago. The
evangelist is planning to make the
meetings during the remainder of this
week exceptionally interesting and to
bring the revival to most successful
close Sunday.

had never seen such things before On
iy few weeks ago many residents OF
Bend had never seen a locomotive and
were awestricken when the Arst one
pulled into town. They know what to
expect though. for they had read OF en-
gines and trains. but the sight of such
wierd things as Holsters and crabs.
that looked like huge. overgrown in

hension Of the people at first, 1t took
time to get over the shock.
Cowpunchers. sheepherders. ranch.

doors to gather information as to the
origin of the strange curstaceans The
assistant to the chef was as stumped

were dobsters, because the chef told
him so. but he suspected they were
caught in Portland and so informed
the sightseers. The crabs. he thought,

were induced to eat them.

FOOTBALL NOTES.

One Of the greatest struggles on
the Western gridiron this season was
the Minnesota Wisconsin 6-6 tie game.
The Dartmouth eleven made a fine
showing this season, but was not quite
strong enough to down Princeton or
Harvard.
Penn and Cornell are hard at work
preparing for their last game OF the
season. which will take place Thanks
giving day.
Trinity college. with only ESQ stu.
dents, turned out an eleven that de-
feated Colgate. Wesleyan and the Mas.
sachusetts Aggies.
Jimmy Thorpe Of the Carlisle eleven
Is one Of the wonders Of the athletic
world. Coming to Carlisle in 1908 with
no knowledge whatever Of athletics
he has since then accomplished a
marvellous variety OF athletic feats
on floor. gridiron. diamond. track and
field.

NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-Further sug.
gestions in the movement to reform
reformed football" were made In this
city today, and they will probably be
acted upon when the rules committee
meets to lay down the laws to govern
next seasons plays.
Head Coach Herman P. c. Olcutt Of
New York university, the old Yale
star, came forward in favor of de-
creasing the distance to be gained in
three downs as one means of making
it easier to score. He also counsels
further restriction of the forward
pass.
"Restrictions should be placed upon
the men eligible to make the forward
pass" he declared. If only the two
ends of one back could mako this
play it would take away one feature
of the game which gave 90 much dis
satisfaction this season.

AS TO NUISANCES
BY DR.. !. N. Hurry
BY DR.. j. N. HURRY

Two kinds of nuisance are defined
by law. viz:-Health Nuisance and
Property Nuisance. A Health MUS
ance is defined as ANY condition
whatever. which may transmit, gener-
ate or promote disease" Such NUS
ance comes directly within the juris-
diction Of health authorities and can
be abated according to the law as fol-
lows:
And it shall be the duty of all
health commissioners and all health
officers upon hearing in any way of
the existence Of said unlawful condi-
tons within their respective jurisdic-
tiOns, to order their abatement in writ
ing. If demanded, and specifying par
ticularly wherein said conditions may
transmit disease, and naming the
shortest reasonable time for abate-
ment."
If this order of the health officer is
not obeycd within the time specified,
ne shall inform the prosecuting attor-
ney who shall institute proceedings in
the courts for enforcement. Certain
conditions specified in law (See Sec
ton 535, Acts of 1909 which are In
furious to the comfort or property Of
individuals or the public" or which
"Essentially interfere with the COM
Portable enjoyment of life" constitute
nuisance against property. Such nuis-
ance does not come within the juris-
diction of health authorities, but must
be abated through legal action in the
courts by the injured property owner
Manifestly all nuisances against health
are at the same time nuisances against
property but the reverse is not true
A manure pile. unprotected from flies,
is a positive nuisance against health
because it may generate, transmit or
promote disease" and can of course
be abated by health officials. The
same manure pile is nuisance against
property. because it is offensive to
the senses and an injury to property.
A fertilizer factory emits a horribly
offensive odor, which odor in itself is
not 4 nuisance against health, but is a
decided nuisance against property.
Such nuisance cannot be abated by
cecded against by the injured property
owners. Health officers must bear in
mind the legal distinction between
nuisances against health and those
against property only and be guided
in their official acts accordingly.
