A SPLENDID
PROGRAM AT
M. E. CHURCH

The usual form of the service was
departed from Sunday evening, and
the large audience which gathered at
the First Methodist church listened
in raptured silence to the simple
story of the Messiah, as told in song
by the well-trained choir of AZ
voices. Coming at this time of the
year the service seemed unusually
appropriate, and those who were
turned away for want of standing
room missed much.
:. All of the solos, hymns and an
thems blended into one splendid re-
cital of the birth, life and mission of.
Jesus. Those who came to be amused
remained to worship for the Chsist-
mas spirit permeated the atmosphere
The leader instilled a perfect rythm
into the voices of the singers who
rendered the difficult selections with
a grace and ease which speaks much
for their ability and their earnest d.
rector. The pipe organ solo by Pro-
fessor Roberts was also well rem
dered, and, after hearing him, one
could well understand the words of
the poet, when he said: The organ
ist speaks the workings of the soul"
Quite Q lengthy program was rem
dered, and it was a most beautiful
one, that brought a sense of Christ
mas time, Of good will and peace to
all who attended the service.

CITY BUDGET FOR 1912.
CONTINUED from Page ~

The foregoing is the estimate made
by the finance committee of the bud
get for next year Chairman White
will present it tonight to the council
for its consideration and while that
body may see fit to make revisions, 1t
is pretty safe to predict that it will
be not downward, but rather up
wards, for the committee in prepar-
ing the estimate has been conserva-
tive and it does not contain an item
which is not necessary for the ad-
ministration of the affairs of the
city.
According to the estimate the levy
for the city will be S1s mills. The
school board has already made a levy
of 8 $40 miles for the maintenance
Of the city schools, and Judge Bushey
Of the board of county commission
ers roughly estimates the levy for
the county at II mills This will
make the complete levy for the city
about 28 4-10 mills.

Sometimes this Furniture finds its

Bryan on Schedule.

St Paul Minn. June 1.--When shown the Associated Press report of the action of the democratic causuc on he wool schedule. William ). Bryan early his morning gave out the ioi dowing statement:
 "The democrats in congress are responsible to the country and to
 heir constituents and 1t remains to Je seen whether their action will be endorsed. The brief report which have seen shows that the matter was fought upon fould basis and shhii De mistaken if the public is deceived by the pretense that 1t was levied for revenue. The amcGnt raised by tax on wool could be raised by tax on raw silk. or raw rubber with mucn nore justice. I mention these two ways of makino up the amount. There are many other ways. The tax on WOOL would never be thought of but for the protective benefit 1t Is supposed to bring to wool growers. 1 think the party would have done better f t. had honestly stated its reasons ana declared itself Tn favor of protection 70 that extent.
 However, In expressing my opin- ion. am only sneaking for myself and the caucus may find the public more gullible than think it is. The declaration that this is not surren- der of the free wool doctrine Is ad- ding insult to Injury and am s1f- prised that any advocates of free wool accepted it as a reason for en- dorsing he committee bill.
