In recent number of the London Everyman is review of the Koran and it's author Mohammed It is a one mans book. and that man not an inn aginative one, but essentially A man of action and lacking in invention. The Koran is a jumbled mass of pre- eepts, doctrines, threats, iniunctions- divine commands, narrative, lyric and epic poetry. Its heaven and hell are, too material for modern thought. "Ob- viously," says Everyman. the Koran is meant not to be read with the eve. but to be recited, when the repet.tions are not nearly so pronounced. It re- fleets social order. system of ideas, as remote from Rome and more espe

POPULAR PROGRAM

81 1T
The committee Of the Young Mems
Christian Association having charge
|of the event to occur at the
tx. M. c. A. building on the evening of
February IL in memory of the ami
yersary Of the birth of Abraham Lin
|ocln, is busily engaged in the details
|of the occurrence. The program is
under consideration but is not yet
completed. AS has been before stated
in The Gate City, J. r. Bane, Esq. of
Oelwein, Iowa, has accepted an invi-
|tation from the committee to be one
|of the speakers on the occasion, and
his subject will be: character of
Abraham Lincoln A subject bound
less in interest and a text worthy Of
the ablest oratorical endowment. Mr..
Bane has delivered his Lincoln lecture
before large and discriminating aud
fences and has invariably won the
highest praise of press and people.
Recently Mr.. Bane addressed Rob-
son Post G. A. r. and the Womens
Relief Corps, at Albert Lea. and a
local paper in It's report of the meet
ling and the elegant supper furnished
|by the w. r. G. thus mentions the adj
dress of Mr.. Bane:
THE brief review we are only able
to give it will do 1t but scant Justice,
for it was one Of the most erudite,
comprehensive, unique and instruc-
tive that was ever delivered in Albert
Lea, and 1t engrossed close attention
and thrilled his hearers with his SPLEEN
Iemancipator in a new and natural light
and made his greatness, unselfishne less,
patriotism and humanity known as 1t
has never been understood, and was
accorded the heartiest encomiums
for the rare and eloquent treat with
which he had favored his auditors.
Mr.. Bane is Of pleasing personality
and OF unassuming and effective man
lr.er on the rostrum and 1t is to be
hoped that plan to secure him to de-
liver his lecture for the benefit Of the
schools of the city may ere long be
lconsummated.'
| The committee has shown efficiency
| in securing Mr.. Bane to deliver this
appropriate address on the character
of the great American and the people
! OF Keokuk are fortunate in having the
opportunity of hearing this able and
eloquent address by Mr.. Bane.
There is an assurance in the evil
dence and activity of the committee
in charge that there will be very
large attendance on the evening of
the notable day, as there should be.
