The Stadtkirche, or parish house of wor- ship, a Gothic structure dating from about 1400, is a building of rare in- terest. It has been slightly modern- ized but enough of the original edifice remains to show its age and classic outlines. Among the notables whose tombs are beneath its roof are those of the prince of Saxe-Weimar-Risenach. | including the elector John Frederick | the Magnanimous and his wife, and Duke Bernard of Weimar, a hero of the Thirty Years’ War. “The altar $20,000 LIMIT 15 PLACED UPON THE STATE FAIR \ Understanding Reached by Legis- lators Leads to Withdrawal of Bill for Annual Levy for Institution * CHEYENNE, Feb. 6.—(Special.) —Members of the house kicked An- son Higby’s dog all around the back lot and out into the alley Wednesday, and it wouldn’t be surprising if the state fair secretary picked up his dollrags and went right home. This is not written in a spirit of criti- cism of the state fair or of Secretary Higby, but from a desire to report the facts.

Threats are made of a general strike on all steam railways. The government has placed great numbers of motor lorries at the dis- posal of the people, who otherwise would have been forced to walk miles thru the slush and snow to work. Later, enginecrs and firemen on the London and Southwestern Rail- way struck. NO INTERFERENCE BUT RELIEF IS GRANTED LONDON, Feb. 6.—The govern- ment is still maintaining the attitude that it could not interfere in strikes now in pr s for the reason they are solely industrial controversies, but the gre convenience which the London publ is suffering has prompted the government to institute measures of relief until a settlement is hed. This was initiated by starting a military motor service in fhe London stre The war office mobilized a thousand motor lorries. !

The Saturday mectings will be held at 3 o’clock, an open meeting, 6:30 a dinner for the men, and an open meeting again at 7:30 at all of which the visitors will speak. After the first mectings the dis- trict pastors from Lander, Riverton, Glenrock and Douglas will be sum- moned to Casper for a conference Moorman to outline the plans for the central part of the state, the various quotas to be raised and other necessary business. That the First Baptist church un- der the leadership of Rev. R. H. Moorman has experienced a wonder- ful growth dn the last year was evi- denced in the reports which were |read last night at the annual meet- ing and dinner. Over $2,000 was jraised by various church endeavors \for current and benevolent expenses’ since July 7, when Mr. Moorman took charge. The church has seventeen service stars and one gold star in its service flag, a ttibute to its patriotism dur- ing the war. The gold star is in memory of William Henry, who died from pneumonia while in England. One of the endeavors which was most pleasing to the church directors was the report of the Ladies’ Aid So-- ciety which has raised over $400 during the past year, despite the fact that several months of their time was turned over to Red Cross and other relief work during the war. The society completed 122 garments for the Red Cross alone. The church has been completely re- organized and will be divided into seven distinct departments with sec- These secretaries will work in conjunction with the regular officers of the church in the form of an advisory council. The following department and sec- retaries were chosen: Finance, W. E. King; evangelistic, Mrs. Schriner; educational, Mr. J. A. Hanson; social service, Jack Carr; missionary, Mrs. S. F. Pelton; fellowship, Mrs. Alma Bohannon. ——- GEIS RETAINED BY PROMINENT OIL COMPANIES lieutenant W. H.

The genius of Goethe and Schiller characterize Weimar in other forms of civic beauty. Goethe, some years before his death, laid out a large public park in the form of a garden and without an enclosure of any kind. There a quaint relic of its originator remains in the stone altar round which a serpent climbs to eat the votive bread. Upon the altar is an in- scription to the “genius hujus loci.” Statues of Wieland, who came to Weimar as the tutor of Grand Duke poser Hummel and Franz Liszt are among the other public embellish- ments of the city. The Grunes Schloss built in the 18th century, and con- taining 200,000 volumes, is an inter- esting library and contains also a valuable collection of portraits, busts and literary and other curiosities. Other public buildings are the Wittumspalais, the old ducal dower house, containing Preller’s famous mural paintings of the Odyssey; the Goethe-Schiller Archieve, an impos- ing edifice on an eminence above the river Ilm, in which are treasured manuscripts by famous German writers; the Liszt Museum; a gym- nasium; a Realschule, or school for girls, founded by the Grand Duchess | Sophia; a grand ducal school of art; technical, commercial and music schools, geographical institute, teach- ers’ seminaries and other institu- tions of learning. ——————__ | | We make a special of salary loans.
