After council adjourned an inform

bers and City Engineer Blinn rela-
tive to the proposed sewage disposal
plant in the city of Mt. Vernon. A
lengthy explanation was made by the
city engineer relative to letters he
has received from engineers all over
the country wanting to make the pre-
liminary plans for a sewage disposal
plant and present the same to the
state board of health with the nee
essary arguments. Letters were re-
ceived from engineers from the
larger cities in Ohio and even from
New York. The cost for preparing
the plans varied. One engineer
wanted $1,000 for preparing the plans
and arguing the matter before the
state board OF health. The city en-
gineer was of the opinion that coun.
Gil should give the matter early con-
sideration so that II 1t Is necessary
to build the sewage disposal plant
that 1t can be completed before the
winter sets in.
The city engineer also presented
plans, which he had receiced, for the
building Of portable voting houses,
for use in the city. Various prices
were quoted for different material
used In the construction of the
houses.

I attended service last Sunday in a

life of the human family here and now
and life after what is called death

that this life here and now was a pre-

or scientific opinion on such a subject
The people of this earth have had
much Of such speculation through the
past ages There ought to be an end
to such speculation 1t is misleading

nancially. When a person makes such
assertions as a heaven and a God, a
devil and bell, in the orthodox mean

Charleston is of very ancient and dis
tinguished birth, having been founded
before the year I7OO In most of the
history which the United States has
compiled, Charleston has been very
active. It is impossible to read more
than four pages in any account of the
American revolution or the civil war
without meeting Charleston careering
madly to fame in a storm of bullets.
Charleston called the first continental
congress. 1t produced a vice president.
1t passed the constitution and defied the
government. 1t seeded from the union
and stood a three years siege. It was
twice bombarded by the British. 1t was
destroyed by fire and saved by a fort of
palmetto logs. 1t entertained the most
disastrous earthquake that had visited
this country up to the time of the Frisco
SILVER. 1t has provided local color for
a shelf full of novels. 1t has half
dozen steamship lines. 1t built worlds
fair and recovered from it. 1t produced
Maj. Hemphill, whose ideas are quoted
with respect by the New York news
papers. Railroads sell excursion tickets
to Charleston from all over the country.
