the Council—It was my purpose to pre-
pare a detailed statement concerning the
affairs of the city for the past year, but
from the fact that as yet the finance com
mittee has not finished its report It wa*
Impossible for me so to do. Howevei,
will state that I have been connected with
the city government for the past eight
years, five as councilman and three
mayorThe general condition of the
public affairs ot the municipality is good
In fact, It Is better than at any time
within my knowledge. The finances are
in good shape; the police report shows
tor itself. The business ot that depart-
ment was greater and more satisfactory
during the past year than during any
previous year ot the city’s history. The
revenue from that source was over $7000;
more than 1000 arrests were made, and
especially do J commend to you all the
old officers. The books ot the city sec
retary, the assessor and collector and the
treasurer are as near perfect as could be
dealred. To the retiring members I am
very thankful for the many courtesies.
May they live long and prosper. To the
new members, I congratulate you, and
trust that you will put forward the same
etxort* In behalt ot the city as has char-
acterized your private lives/ I pity you,
however, for the cursing and abuse you
will get during the next two years.”

and three o’clock the heavy plate-glass
window at the; Gate City jewelry store
was smashed open and the thief secured
$7 in silver coin and made good his es-
cape. No person was in the vicinity at
the time and the chances are that the
guilty party will never be apprehended.
The window was valued at $75 and it
will take that amount ot money to re-
place it. No insurance.

Four Big Suoceai
The Lectures it the Ohnatisa Chink.
Elder John T. Cropper, of Clin-
ton, Mo., delivered a series of what
might be termed religio-philoeophi-
cal lectures at the Christian church
ast week to good audiences. The
elder is a very pleasant gentleman
socially, and as he gave it out that
he proposed to prove that man had
an immortal soul and in his final
lecture “extract the lap root of infi-
delity without pain,” the “infidels’’
and those looking for the “proofs’’
made up a fair share of the audi-
It cannot be said that the
elder is a very pleasant speaker, and
hia arguments lacked very much ot
being as convincing to the unbe-
liever aa his rather extravagant
claims lead them to expect, but he
impresses his hearers with the con
viction that he is a firm believer in
nis own theories. If he extracted
the tap root of infidelity from any
of the doubters present, it was not
made manifest, but the elder is do-
ing a good work, by setting the
people to thinking, and as the agita-
tion of thought is said to be the be-
ginning of wisdom, the result will
probably show itself in broader
views and a greater tolerance be-
tween those of conflicting opinions.
The most remarkable thing cc
nected with these lectures was the
invitation extended by the lecturer
and also the pastor of the Christian
church, Elder Elmore, to those
present, to take part in the discus-
sion and criticise freely the argu-
ments presented.
This is the first time in our exper
ience where a clergyman invited
criticism in the church, with possi-
bly the exception of the Unitarians
and Universaliata. Free inter-
change of views on religious dogmas
is so universally disapproved by the
clergy that it has become a common
saying that the pulpit is the coward's
castle, hence the experience at the
Christian church last week was a
revelation to the free thinkers and
they not only attended in considera-
ble numbers but several of them
availed themselves of the opportun-
ity to propound a tew questions to
the elder and mildly criticise some
oi his evidences. It was a strange
sight to see T. V. Munson, for in-
stance, discussing with a parson in
a Christian church, the evidence ot
the existence of a supreme being,
and of a soul in man and the doc-
trine of a future life. But these in
tellectual hits were conducted in
the most iriendly manner, and were
apparently well received by the
audiences.

one ot the fineat rooms for their
meetings in the city, and on Thursday
night held an open session, to which
they had invited their triends, "the
enemy”—the ex-confederate soldiers, and
their friends,
Tha program consisted of a talk from
Capt. Dan Webster on the object and
purpose ot the G. A, R. in behalf of
which he extended a cordial welcome to
the "men in gray,1’ and hoped they
would feel at home upon all auch occa-
sions. Then followed talks on the battle
of Antietsm, by Comrade Hawes of Phil-
adelphia; and Picket’s charge at Gettys-
burg, by M. V. Heck, a member of Pick-
et’s division and a participant in said
charge; on Wilson's Creek and Arkansas
Post by J. W, Stewart of the jst Texas;
on Prairie Grove by Post Commander
Kretslnger and on the battle of Galveston
by Dr. Magill, late surgeon C. S. A.
These talks were interspersed with music,
vocal and instrumental. The only solo
was, "Tenting To-night on the Old £amp
Ground,’’ rendered in a very elective
manner by little Miss Caruthers; Miss
Dain presided at the piano.
The meeting war a success, and will
undoubtedly be followed by others ot a
similar nature.
