TO Brooklyn, N. Y.

An announcement that will be of in
terest TO many IN this city outside OF

s,ad's resignation will go before the

tenber was secured thru the pastor OF
the Brooklyn church, Rev. S Q. Sig
mond. who was here recently TO dis
cuss the matter with Mr.. Ingvoldstad
The latter's duties as assistant pastor
will also give him an opportunity to do
considerable research work at Union

which numbers over 1000 children.
The church is one Of the largest Lu-
theran churches in Greater New YORK

Baptists and Presbyterians to Unite
Forces For EvanseiissIc Campaign.
in octobor-sccure Rev. Charles G.
Jorden, Of Volant, Pa, to Lead.

In order to promote union evan
gelistc campaign next fall the con-
gregations of the Baptist and Presby-
terrain churches have decided to unite
their forces and begin campaign Of
four weeks duration, to begin Oct. s..
Rev. Charles G. Jorden, of Volant, Pa,

Another plan to protect the city
pumping station where it crosses the
| channel from Asher creek was adopted
by the city council Monday afternoon
when it Cancelled the contract with H.
]. Benson for building a dam, and
ordered the city to build one at once.
4 majority of the council propose to
build the dam above, instead of be-
low where the water main crosses the
channel.
| A contract was made with H. j.
| Benson to build a dam last fall below
! the pipe line for $500. The dam was
partly built but high water tore it
out. The city never paid for the work
done and il was understood that Ben
son would undertake the job again
| this summer. Because he has not
done so the council Cancelled the con-
tract.
Dam on Creek at Channel.
Last winter, when it was, thought
floating ice might damage the pipe
line. piling was driven where the
water from Asher creek flows into
the channel above where the water
main crosses. The city proposes now
to build a dam where the piling are
sunk, using them for part of it.
The resolutions canceling the Ben
son contract. and ordering the dam
built were introduced by City Clerk
Wilson Councilman Mcfarland is not
in favor of building the dam where it
is proposed. SO the construction work
has not been turned over to the water
supply department The resolution
says the dam is urgently needed and
that it should be built at once.
More Water Extensions.
More extensions Of water mains are
to be laid. and hubbler fountains are
to be placed in Riverview park. One
of the important extensions will be
six-inch line north of Marion street in
Third avenue into Riverview. Other
extensions will be. laid in Riverside
street. South Thirteenth street, West
Church street, South Twelfth avenue
and Fremont street. The council au-
thorized Councilman Mcfarland to
advertise for bids for the pipe, foun-
tains and other materials for these
extensions.

STOP CARS FOR SEWER.
Council Authorizes Street Railway Not
to Operate on Summit Street.

Fearing that operation of street cars
on Summit street, west Of Thirteenth.
may cause cave-ins in the ditch to be
dug for a sewer, the city council has
authorized the Iowa Railway and Light
Company not to operate cars on that
street while the sewer Is being laid.
The ditch for the sewer will be fairly
close to the street car tracks, and as
the soil is very sandy 1t Is feared that
earth vibrations, caused by moving
street cars, might make the sandy
danks of the ditch give way. The SCI
vice will be interrupted probably only
for a few days.
