The prosecution failed to show that Dunn owned the house or that he leased it to Mrs, Brown, or that he knew the charac ter of the place sho was keeping, Mrs Brown was then put on trial for keeping a houso of ill-fame, but the prosecution failed to show that she was the keeper of the house, there being three or more women who occupied it, any one of whom might bo the keeper for all the ovidence showed. She was discharged, Holzer was then given the very startling advice by the young man who acted for the city attorney in the latter case, that if he wanted to make out a case he ought to hire some attornoy and pay him well to fight it for him. I¢secms strange that a man doing a legitimate business must submit to the anuoyance of having o woman doing an_illegitimate business next door to him, and when ho appeals to the city authorities to remove the nui- sance to bo informed that ho must got his own attorney. 1tis supposed that the city employs and pays a man to prosecute such cases, Where is that man? —— J.

The board is loth to relinguish his services, but he has fully determined upon returning to the «f« ical calling from whence he was taken. He isa min- ister of the Congregational faith. It is understood that Prof. Hammond, super- intendent of the Arkansas institution for the deaf and dumb, has been tendered the vacancy, and his wife the position of matron, Prof. Hammond has had twen- ty years experience in that kind of work in various states, and is known to have excellent qualifications for the place.” It has since been fully decided upon that Prof. Hammond is to have the posi- « Buith, for assaulting M.

Mr, Armstrong Chooses it for the | st of His Sermon, | Rev | Broady mornin Mr. Armstrong, the pastor of the Methodist ¢ his cc wrch, yesterday zation an carnest sermon on “‘Lord, wilt thou have me to do? In opening he dwelt upon the impor | ance of will power, and that all men had awve their wills broken at times They w re forced to submit to the will of other men in many carthly matters, One of the for the strength of the St renasons Francis society, was that its or broke the | and made them submit to his will. One | monk, who had almost as trong a will as St. Francis, refused to yield, and after every person had been brought to hear, | a grave eight feet decp was dug, and the {monk was placed upright in this. Dirt was shoveled inuntil he was buried to | his knees, He was then asked if he would yield, and still refused. Then more dirt thrown in, and the ques tion repeated, with a like answer. It was not until the monk was all buried | except his head, that he gave up. The | speaker doubted whether this merc | physical force ever thoroughly broke a man’s will, and it was not through fear [ that the will of a man could be best sub jected to God's will. Love was what was needed to m man's will step aside for ill. Then man cheerfully did what d desired. The question in the text was not “Lard, what wilt thou have other men do?” It was too frequently the that | men wanted to know what others should | do, and very ready to tell others | what they ought “to do. They shoull y themselves ought to do, 1f k the question individuall v himself or herself, and do whatever duty came in answer to the question, the church would be a great power. There was great power in c centrated thinking and acting.

A minister once asked a deacon to lead r. The deacon hire you to do the p many had that idea, that the ministers must do the praying. It was not true The members must do their own pray ing, and must do individual duty. There was much latent power in every chu The man had been laughed at much who stood at Niagara Falls, and when asked if it was not a grand sight, replied, “Yes, but what a lot of ma chinery could be run by’ that power.” The speaker often felt in looking at grand churches what a power they might be. Two weeks ago he was in Chicago, and in attending Centennary church, the great Methodist church of the west side, he was strongly impressed with the fact of latent power. There was a great con- gation, an elegant church, finely ssed gentlemen and ladies filling the sews, and yet such a deadness and form ality to the service. They looked pious enough, but when a si ger chanced to be in their pew, some these had the usher show him out. Would Christ have crowded out a strang who hunger- ing for spiritual food? ' The sight of this church had given him inspiration for thus speaking earnestly of the necessity of calling out the latent power of the chure The question used for the text was not “Lord what wilt Thou have me do or say!” Doctrines w important, but works equally so. Doctrines were the skeletons for the flesh, the pictures, the poles for vines to climb on. Too many Christianshad tobe approach- ed just on the right side to get them to do anything, as though a Christian should have a right and wrong side. A boot- black remarked, “Jim s a good fellow, if you get on the right side of him.” Another replied, “Ycs, but the wrong side reaches so fi round him that th isn't much right side left.” There were s this way, hey > rounded out until the right all around, and they stand ready to be approached at any time with any duty. e Davis having moved from Pearl ty, can now be found at 109 South Main street, where she has a fine stock of fumey goods and notions. — BACK TO DES MOINES, The Full Details of the Trouble Which Led to the Capture of a Capltal City Young Man Here, The young man Randlett, who was ar- rested hore on telegraphic’ orders frem Des Moines, excited some curiosity here. 1t was given our by the officers that ho was wanted for jumpinga board bill, and just as City Marshal Smith, of Des Moines, leit with the prisoner he whis- pered *“ill-tapping.” Tho following full details of the young man’s case are given by The Leader: On last Sunday morning R.

Zoernsch, who keeps the saloon on the corner of Sixth and Walnut streets, went down, as was his custom, to scrub out the saloon and otherwise placo it in good condition for the Monday business. At about 9 o'clock, after everything had been nicely cleaned, Mr. Zeoornsch told him he might go home and rest, and told him not to_return to the saloon during the day. He went away, but as soon as the proprietor had gone, ho returned with & companion, and entering the saloon they began drinking the liquors and eat- ing the lunch that liad been prepared fo Monday. They staid there most of the and managed to get outside of a go deal of the contents of the shop, In the afternoon Randlett began to think of leaving town, and left his companion in the saloon while he went to the house for his valise. Upon inquiry he found Monday morning. He returned to the saloon and spent the night there and left next morning on the before mentioned train, When Mr, Zoernsch came to the saloon in the moring he found every thing in confusion and the money all taken from the drawer and tho best of his hquors gone.
