Monticello, April IA wave of re-
vival and reformation such as Month
cello has never before known is sweep
ing over the city. The series Of meet
ings being conducted at the tabernacle
by Stephens brothers, of Toronto, Cam
are, are proving tremendous success.
The huge tabernacle is filled with hum
dreds of people at each meeting. Men
and women who never before knew
what church was, are regularly attend
ing the meetings, drunkards, who have
literally lived in the cutters, can not
stay away; 1t almost seems that some
invisible power which can not be re-
sisted, is being exerted and as steel to
a magnet, hundreds of people arc be-
ing drawn to the meetings daily. AS
yet the evangelists have not asked nor
urged single individual il they wish
to be converted, but nevertheless their
converts already number almost 100.
different from that employed by other
erangelists and no person is urged to
confess and be saved; but however
they are given the chance to come for
ward at their own free will, and at the
close Of each meeting in the main part
lcf the tabernacle, smaller meeting is
held in the rear room of the building
and here it is that most Of the CONVEX
sions have thus far been made.

OFFERS PUBLIC PLAYGROUND.
J. B. Dennis, Of Traer, Makes Liberal
Proposition to Town.

Special to Times Republican
Traer. April u. b. Dennis has
made the city of Traer a very gener-
Gus offer. He proposes to donate a
large playground and ball park pro-
vided in turn the city does certain
things. He offers tract Of land BOOK
$40 free and clean provided a seating
stand to hold 300 be erected. that an
alley be vacated, and that the fence
line be allowed to extend to the curb
line on the north. The real estate COM
sists Of Mr.. Dennis several lots north
west of the school house and the Sam
Reid residence property on which he
holds an option for $4,000. He also
proposes to erect an arch at the en-
trance to the grounds.
The tract is amply large for all
games and will admit of a race track
OF a fifth mile.
The gift is valued at $4,000. and Is
one which the city will appreciate to
the fullest. The present school grounds
are very limited and 1t is necessary to
go mile to secure baseball diamond.
The proposition is before the city
council and will without doubt, be ac-
cepted-and Traer will be able to add
another up-to-date city feature that
not another town OF our size in the
state can boast.
