tenn"
Mayor Harry Wallace Is IN direct
charge OF ths police n the present crisis
aud his every net mas received the en-
dorsement Vi the employers. As part
owner OF the Globe Coal Company, EN-.
ployine about thirty teamsters, the new
mayor is himself directly affected by the
strike. In a proclamation Wallace de-
clared that both sides would get fair
play, but that under no circumstances
would the strike be allowed to interfere
with business.
While this announcement was being
made, the board Of public safety under
Wallace began issuing special permits
on written requests from employers de-
putizing several hundren men to carry
weapons and clothing them with police
powers. With these permits the EN-
ployers have armed their strike-breakers
and they have official prmission to
shoot.
The feeling on both sides is so in
tense that an organization OF five hum
dred volunteers has been formed
among the leading business and pro-
fessional men of the city. who have
armed themselves and have establish
ed barracks in Tomlinson Hall to be
ready for any emergency, awaiting
orders from the police heads.
Following a lengthy conference at
police headquarters between repre-
sentatives of the employees. Mayor
Wallace and Acting Superintendent
OF Police Coffin gave the following in
structions:
Make as few arrests as possible
Whenever crowd forms about a nom
union driver, rush them and crack
heads"
In apparent confirmation Of the al
legged n. A. NJ plot to break the
strike, an automobile containing
seven picked detectives, patrolled the
downtown section today and across
the lap of each sharpshooter lay a
repeating rifle. Stored in the police
stations are machine guns, rifles and
ammunition. Several hundred special
policemen did the regular patrol duty
in their districts and massed in the
police stations was the entire regular
force.

Good Work at Osman, Illinois.

EVANGELIST T. z. Davis closed Sun
day night a two weeks meeting. The
most successful revival we have ever
had in Osman. This is the first real
prayer meeting we have had in our
church since it was organized and
the power of God was wonderfully
manifested inasmuch as a number OF
men were converted whom the peO-
pie had been praying for for years.
During this meeting cards were torn
to pieces and burned. 1wenty-One
have already united with the church
and there are yet some others to
come. Rev. Davis doesn't only go
after the men but he gets them.
Ellisville is being aroused. Tent
is too small for the crowds. Many
are being reached. A great religious
awakening has taken place in Ellis
Vile. Evangelist T. q. Davis, the
man of mystery was engaged to hold
aafeMl nights meetings which began
Aug. 81. He began to present the
old gospel story in such new way
that many people who had not been
accustomed to attending church for
years were attracted by it and great
interest was manifested from the be-
ginning. The tent was soon too
small and many had to be turned
away. The whole community has
been stirred as it has not been for
years. Forty have already been con-
verted and more are expected

Davis will do the preaching. Prof.
Baer of Washington, D. c., will lead
the singing Prof. Baer is a great
tenor singer, having finished his
training in Milan, Italy, and he Is
considered by many to be superior to
the great Caruso. He has won great
reputation for himself and Rev. Da-
Wis also brings the highestest recon-
mendations as gospel preacher.
You will want to hear both the first
day they are here.
Let every one plan to attend these
services. 1t will be rare opportun-
ity for a town like Decatur to get
such a singer and it will be valu-
able opportunity to sing in the
chorus under the direction of Prof
Baer. We want large chorus SO
come and help us and help yourself
by so doing. Let every one get
right with Cod so He can use each
one in these meetings. The meetings
at Maple Grove closed for the pres
ent Saturday night with eighteen ac-'
cessions, with more to follow. An
Epworth League will be organized
and the good work will 60 on. =

be glad to receive you and look after
the transfer later. If you have your

get a great deal more good and do
much more good if you get a church
home and take more interest in the

Methodist Church Notes.

The committee on Christmas pro-
gram of the Sunday school was
greatly handicapped this season on
account of the special sevices being
held in the church. The entertain
ment as presented last night had of
necessity to be given with but few
rehearsals.
There will be no choir practice
tonight (Thursday). One week from
tonight, however, the regular re-
hearsals will be resumed. The hour
is from 1880 to $3.50. The two
violins and two cornets assist mater
tally in the church music.
The Sunday school attendance has
been large these days. Come to the
session next Sunday at 9:45 if you
are not regular attendant else
where.
The morning preaching service as
heretofore at 1890, the pastor

follows: Morning preaching service

school service. Evening preaching

There will not be any prayer meet

One week from next Sunday, im-
mediately at the close of the morn

will hold it's annual congregational
meeting for the purpose of hearing
reports, election of officers, and any
other business that may properly
come before the meeting. Every
member of the church and congrega-
ton is urged to be at the meeting.
Two new members were received
into the church, on confession of
faith, at the afternoon service at
Crown chapel last Sabbath.
Our ladies served some excellent
dinners in the church basement last
Thursday, Friday and Saturday and
cleared quite little sum of money
as a result.

Two Mighty Good Colts.

There was the finest bunch of
colts shown at the Farmers Insti-
&ute ever seen together in southern
Iowa, but there were two of them
which deserve special mention. One
was the colt owned by Austin Smith,
who lives just over the line in Wayne
county. 1t was only months and
is days old, and weighed 1O15
pounds, and good judges say it was
the best colt they ever saw. The
other was in the yearling class, en-
tered by Mert Cozad, and weighed
1875 pounds. The Judge from Ames
college said it was the best colt he
had judged anywhere this year.

a young man by the name Of Gard

sad affair We know nothing, and
therefore are not prepared to give
an opinion in regard to the matter.
We are glad to learn from DR..
Brown that Bluff Roger, who was
