Despite the howling winds and the horrible night there was a large audience at the Baptist church Sunday evening to hear what Rev. Mr. Leman had to say about “‘Spiritualism,” and among the au- dience were many of the prominents in Spiritualistic cireles. 1f they expocted him te follow the too common method of “pitching in red hot,” they were sadly disappointed. Ho handled tho subject clearly, logically, and dispassionately, and at the close some of those who differed from him, willingly congratulated him d troated on the manner on which he the subject. He reviewed the Bible accounts of tho visitation of angels to this earth, and then met the question aquarely whether these man ifestations passed away with Bible times? Ho was frank enough to admit that he could find nothing in scripture or in rea- son to show that they did. On the other hand he believed that departed spirits influenco the minds of mortals, and that they were *‘ministering angels.” That was their mission—to holp, to warn, to lead toward the good, but their mission was not to reveal anything new concern- ing either heaven or hell. Man had been given a complete revelation in the Bible, and it was not in tho province of angels to add thereto. It was unreasonable to believe that angels could make revela- tions. 1f they could, Joseph Smith could make one, Moses another, Lazarus another. Each spirit might mako n different revelation, and then who should decide which was right? Such a theory was not reasonablo in view of the fact that man had all the revelation needed. History showed also that an- gels could not mako revelations. The nations which had not the revealed word of God fell into idolatry, and could not by searching find God out, The Bible was also quoted to show the same fact. Tho speaker prcnounced modern spir- itualism really materialism and of a gross form. They had fallen into error in many ways. He believed in the influ- ence of spirits over the spiritual part of man's make up, but this he termed christian spiritualism, In striking at the abuses of modern spiritual- ism christians should bhe care- ful about denying the kernal of truth and neglecting the conscious Krsnenco o spirit influence, asting on the heart, and urging it to the good. The wheat shall not be thrown away with the chaff. Noxt Sunday night he is to deliver an- other discourse, a virtual continuation of this, and will answer the questions: “Is thero sorrow in Heaven?'and ‘“‘Is there joy in hell?” Ho will answer some of the objections of infidelity, that those in heaven take in interest in the condi- tion of those in hell. PLAIN TALK INDEKD, Rev. Mr. Mackay at the Episcopal | chur on Sunday evening gave an address “‘Marriage”. He pictured out the ideal home and told some plain facts about the deplorable drift? of married life, « He spoke of the blessing of children in the home and how few seemed to appreciate them The tendency was directly opposite, and the practices and ideas concerning this subject were growing worse and worse. There were few children in the American homes. Somewhere, as he read in the paper the other day, it was the custom for a bride to carry a doll, and care for it, wash and dross it, until there v.ere children of her own to care for. If such a custom lprm'niled here the country would be filled with dolls in the arms of adults. The speaker thought marriage fast becoming a mere means of satisfying lust, a legal sort of concubinage, and that the tendency was awful enough to demand heroic treatment at the hands of public speakers and thinkers In regard to divorce, ho be- lioved that it was just in some cases, where marriage was really unbearable, and the union horribly abused by one, But ho did not believe in marriage being a mere convenience, and that one should throw off a faithful companion for the sake of satisfying some fancy or caprice. If the earnest, plain talk given on this dolicate subject could be carried into practice, it would make a revolution in socioty in many places. _ Cut rates to all points at McAllister's ticket oftice, 500 Broadway, Council ‘Bluffs, e — Real Estate Transfors, The following deeds were filod for re- ocord in the recorder's oftice, November 206, reported for the Brk by P.

The suicide of Moses Nixon, an old resident of Pottawottamie county and an old veteran, was announced in yesterday morning's Bex. A jury was impannéled, consisting of Charles D. Musser, A, 8, Barrett and Thomas Vallier, and they returned & verdict simply that *'deceased came to his death by his own hand, in accordance with a card found upon his body stating, ‘This is my own act,, " The little daughter of the deceased, a girl about twelve years of age, was the one that discovered the body of her father hanging in the barn, with a card simply stating as above that it was his own act, What led him to thus take his own life is still a mystery, but it is thought that it was done in a fit of despondency bordering on insapity, The hail storm of last sum- wmer ruined his crops and over this loss he brooded greatly. Sunday. morning after eating his breakfast as usual, he went to the barn to look after the stock there, aud about two hours later was found hanging there dead. Mr. Nixon was agod 47 years and was born in Fayetto county, Punn. He had been & resident of the state thirty years, and as stated duhrdny, was a member of the Abe Lincoln post (i, A. R., and about thuty of his comrades went out to the Hazel Dell church yesterday afternoon to attend the funeral. Nixon leaves besides his wife, two sons and a daughter. BUILDING BOOM, Creston Scems to be Having One Just Now, Cneetoy, November 26.—Our city is just now experiencing a building boom, and thinking thatTie Ber readers would be interested in knowing something of its all was made on our architect, K. Ball, who gave me all the de Sinco a lit- details, Mr. W. sired information required. tle over a year ago there has heen no less than twenty-five or thirty husiness houses put up in elegant and substantial style. The two on Pine street, 46x100 feet and two stories high, are built of pressed brick and cut stone trimmings. The Towa State ings bank building, on the corner of Pine and Montgomery, together with the two next, are of the samo style, and making that strcet loom up immense. I should mention in this connection the three built by Dr, Nance (brother of ex- Governor Nance of Nebraska) threc brick buildings, all occupied I beliove, But we are inclined to think that Maple atreot is outstripping Pino, Such great improvements as have been going on of late. The Merchants’ block, with its soven stores 100x164 feet, and all were ronted, except those eccupied by the owners themselves, before the foundations were laid. These, together with the fine structure nuuusivd by The Daily Adver- tiser office, and the Eagle block, as of- fices for Inwyers, doctors and sleeping apartments, and The Weckly Common- wealth, will make Maple street look handsome, so that eventually we opine it will be like unto Fourth street in the great city of St. Louis, (more or less) Then there have been built two new school houses of brick, not, however, quite completed as yet, but will be soon, 80 Mr. Ball, the architect informs me, These will be heated by steam, a grand RUBBERS !

These school buildings will accomodate about 775 pupils; six large rooms in each building, and much more commodious than the little narrow tucked up houses that are now in use, Fine residences havo also been built to the number of some ten or twelve, be- sides cheaper dwellings to the number of about 100. Altogether our beautiful city feols proud of her success in the past. Mr. Ball thinks that another year will sces a greater boom than this, as everything is now most substantially ar- ranged for. The beauty about all nice buildings is that they are pul up in a substantial and fine architectural style. This always catches the stranger’s eye, as he per- chance stops for a fow hours in_our city, and tho general remark is, ‘“‘Why, what a nice town you have here; I am sur- rised,"” We should have mentioned before that the C., B. & Q. have just completed a large store house. It is quite large and commodious and will be considered a great convenience to the “Q.” road, and a great addition to the town. WINTERS. SEEING THE WORLD.
