Every seat in the Opera house was filled last evening, and considerable space utilized as standing room at the grand temperance mass meeting in which nearly all of the churches in the city united. Music was fur- nished by the combined city choi The ad- dresses of the evening were all earnest tem- perance pleas, and were directed against the open saloons of the city, There was no minc- ing of mriters, and existing evils and their causes were freely discussed. The present policy of the city government in allowing saloons to run openly in deflance of tha prohibitory law was severely con- demned. Mr. Jacob Sims was especially out- spoken, and declared that the chief executive of the city was league with the saloon- keepers, and opposed to enforeing the law. At the close of the meeting the following resolution was introduced Resolved, That it is the sense of this meet- ingthat Mayor Rohrer be urgently requested 10 enforce the prohibitory law and we pledge him our caruest support. ‘The resolution passed almost unanimously. A collection was taken to defray the expenses of the meeting, and it was announced that the surplus, if any remained, would be de- voted to the enforcement of the law. Drs.

Oonnecting Link Between Lake Manawa and This City. THOUGHTS FOR THE RELIGIOUS. The Opera House Crowded With En- thusiastic Temperance Workers— General News in and About the City ~Personal. Situation of the Motor Tine. The delay in getting the motor line in readiness for operation does not seem to be caused entirely by the railroad companies, and it s thought that if the city couneil would take certain steps within its power, the obstructions might be cleared away and the line would soon be in active operation. A Bre reporter yesterday interviewed Mr. Reed, the present owner of the motor line franchise and learned some facts regarding it that may be of interest to the public. When asked as to the exact state of affairs now existing, Mr. Reed said: “In order that you may understand just what I had to contend against, and why the line is not already completed, T will begin at the beginning of my connection with the en- terprise and give you its whole history up to the present time. When I purchased Mr. J. K. Graves’ franchise I was given to under- stand by an interested party that there would be no delay caused in crossing the tracks of the railroad companies and that the way was entirely ciear for the immediate completion of the motor line from the dummy depot on Broadway to Lake Manawa. After completing the purchase I was proceeding to have these crossings condemned according to law, when the attorney of the railronds got out an injunction to prevent the condemnation proceedings. My attorney then advised me to try to com- promise the matter, instead of taking it into the courts. Winter came on about that time, and as nothing could be done toward com- pleting the line at that season, even if the way was clear, the matter rested untjl spring opened the way for further work. The com- promise plan was faithfully tried, but con- tract after contract that was sent to railroad headquarters was sent back unsigned, and sometimes without even a reasonable excuse for doing so. If possible I wanted to get the work done without incurring any hard feel- ings, but have thus far been unsuccessful. A right of way was granted for a motor line, but the railroads have only to ask the court for an injunction to stop it, and it is granted. The railroad attorney sceks in several ways to prevent the crossing, and in & number of instances I can trace hindrances put forth, directly to his ingenuity. Now it is not to be supposed that one railroad is at all willing to have its tracks crossed by any other line, but. there is no doubt in my mind but what there is a far different motive in all the talk about the objection of these companies. A petition asking the council to interfere was circulated and over four hundred signatures were secured, but it was never presented to the council. 1t was smothered somewhere. The board of trade has now taken the matter in hand, and their committee reports to-night. I understand thav the report is favorable, I hope that. the result will be more successful than the petition, and that this determined resistance will be overcome. Now, 1f it was not for this, I'could have the line running by the 18t of May. With the exception of these sings the track is all laid. The Wabash crossing has already been put in, and the jury that was appointed to_condemn the ‘stock track’ of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy will probably finish its work to-night.” ———— Catch On to This.

The extremely unpleasant weather of yes- terday kept, many persons from venturing be- yond their homes and the attendance at the various churches suffered in consequence. Broadway Methodist was well filled. The sermon was an effective one and was deliv- ered by the pastor, the Rev. W. H. W. Rees. It was his first regular discourse since the revival services were begun several wecks ago. He chose for his text 1 Cor. iii:9, “We are laborers together with God, ete.” *I'his,” suid the speaker, “‘is a most wonderful pas- sage of scripture. It has in it the epitome of the divine economy. In it you can almost see the incarnation of Christ; the sufferin garden of Gethsemane; the cross dying Lord; the baptism of the Holy the beginning and ending of the plan of re- demption. In it you can almost hear the d vine commands. In it you have the largest possible outlook into divine things; mto the plans and purposes by which man is to be saved from himself and made a king and priest unto God. This part- nership of the human and the divine is a well established and thoroughly established fact. It is everywhere spolien of in the scrip- tures.” The speaker here referred to nu- merous passages to sustain this statement. “T want to show you that this contains and expresses a law which everywhere holds good, and also that either element left to itself fails. The necessity of personal salva. tion 18 presupposed. ‘Jhis, man cannot ac- complish alone. It is the union of two efforts, the harmony of two wills—God’s and man’s that perfects the work. The choicest things, those in which we most delight, are of the past. The greatest people, the profoundest Philosgphy, the most beautitul language, are among’ the things of the past. The dead languages are the richest. The Greek is the most flexible; the Hebrew the most express- ive. The valorous deeds, beautiful imagery and profound postulations of the low, sensual peoples have been perpetusted in the his- tories of those languages. They depended not upon God. They failed to save them- selves, There are nations which have existed for thousands of years, They have gone independent of the fionpcl and are yet un- saved. Herein lies the necessity for mission- ary effort. Religions that are purely human- itarian are short-lived. They may be pleas- ing, but they fail to satisfy the divine side of man, ‘The divine principle, operating alone, fails, How does the divine lift the humani By the interposition, not of the divine, but of the human, The bible is the voice of God in the language of man, God speaks, but man must reach the word of life that the race may hear and know what are Ged’'s wishes con- cerning them. All the elements that are necessary for the development of a crop of wheat are given. Soil, germ, sunshine and rain, all are bostowed bounteously. The germ is cast into the earth; sunshine and rain fall upon it; it springs up, developes the blade, then the stalk, and then the glorious, golden harvest stands before you. Now you may say “It is God’s purpose that I shall be fed.” So it is, but it is & part of the plan of feeding you that you put out your hand, 'gather the grain, convert it into bread and eat it. Thus you live. Iu this are combined the efforts of the divine and the human to do_the purpose of the divine. God can furnish the means for your sustenance, but you must use the means. The sawe is true of character, God de- signed that we should all be good, but He could not and can not make our characters for us. God furnishes pure influences, and in them are shown ‘His purposes, but. man must appropriate these influences, God fur- uishes His word, which is His power te salva- tion. He furnishes the free exposition. of this word, which .gives . the influen: which wre 0 Qaw men from world and worldly lusts into Himself and -heavenly things, but He leaves it for you to act in conjunction with these influ. ences and Klm-. You have the preacher and the preached word, but some men act as though the preacher ought to be taken up to heaven on Sunday night; filed with holy thoughts during the woek; let down again the next Sunday and be taken back into heaven again after the Sunday night service. 1 judge this from the looks of the contribu- tion basket #s it returns from some of my congregations. There is a law which operates in all things on earth. The wheels all turn one way and it is for man to discover this law ; to see these wheels and put over them the beits of man’s inventive genius, God has given us bodics, soil, sunlight and germs, but we must use them all to sustain life. ' You may work in harmony with this law and accomplish the purposes of God, or you may act contrary to these purposes and thvarl them all. The is ore in the mountain and lead in tho mine, but God cannot take these out and make & [rinting proas. You must dig them, com- ine them by the genius He has given you, and then the world is filled with the grand princinles of God and the purest thoughts of man. The fact of destitution also sustains this proposition. In theadministration of earthly affairs we can't get along without_God and He cannot get along without us. Most men will admit the firt statement, but most men are slow to admit the latter. Here is land where people are suffering from famine. There is no substance in the land and the people must die. There is another land which has abundant sustenance for itself and those who are starving, but God cannot take the corn and wheat from the one and bear it 10 the other. -Human hands must be the me- dium through which God's purposes are nac- .complished and the destitute are supplied. The great south land js suffering because years ago some one did not do his duty. To-day, ignorance, like a pall, covers tho land. Those people possess capacitics as great as ours. They ought to be as_highly intelligent and cultured as we are. This is the purpose of God and it is our duty to see that it is accomplished. The bible itself is a human product. It was written by men, but there is in it the di- vine clement.~ Take the divine element out of it and it is no more than any other book. Put the aivine element into it and it is the beacon light of the world; the guide to the pathway of the just. It is a glorious, an overpowering thought to me, that 1 am the temple of God. am' & building_ around deity. God is in me, He is the tenement of my body. You are the temples in which God dwells. Think of it, and let the thought spur you to a more perfect life and hearty obedience to God’s commands. _You are the husbandry of God,—His field, in which He sows the seed of the kingdom and from which He will expect to reap the harvest of His purposes accomplished in the lives of us all. If these propositions are true, then the least hesitancy on the part of the wenkest saint prevents the conquest of the world. How necessary it is that we_shall all do our work freely, gladly, and to the glory of God He with the one talent should make up his mind to do his_part, that there shall be no failure through his neglect. God will accom- plish His purposes, but it may take ages. You may help or you may hinder this work, God waited for 6,000 years until One could say, “Thy will be done,” and then the Christ child was born. He taited twelve centuries and Luther appeared. Fourteen centuries and Wesley lived and aroused the world with his grand and_true interpretations of the word of God. God is waiting for you and for me, Shall we keep him waiting longer, or spring to the task that is at our hand'and which he expects us to perform. This is our mission. No one can do it for us and God will hold us accountable for its accomplish- ment. A-full line of crock at Lund Bros. No, 23 M¢ A Main street. SR S. B. Wadsworth & Co. loan money.

Mobile Register: Colonel Bevier, of- tn. confederate army, rclates that his surgeon came to him one day, saying that he had 175 men on the sick list. Many of them were believed to be play- m% sick, and the colonel and the sur- geon agreed upon a course of treatment. The result showed that, whatever pro- gress may have been made in the sci- ence of medicine, nothing is more of- fective in many cases than a certdia very simple and old-fashioned remedy. Next morning at roll call I had the sergeant-major form the sick in double file and march them to the doctor’s quarters, where he stood ready with a bucket of castor oil in one hand, a table- spoon in the other and his sleevesrolled up. One hundred and eighty-two sturdy invalids in open ranks were be- fore him, and the solemn preparations had attracted so much attention that }‘mli the brigade were present to see the un. The doctor gravely approached the head of the line. “Well, Brown, what morning?” “Oh, doctor, I have such a nervous headache.” I think a dose of castor oil w11l help you,” and with a wry face, amid the shouts of his comrades, Brown took it. “Mullins, are you sick?” “‘Yes, doctor, | have the plumbago.” “Castor oil is the very thing for that,” said the doctor. with an audible smile, and Mulling’ ‘‘plumbago” was greased with a heavy dose, ‘‘Hallo, Meiton, ~What's the matter with you?” Jolic,” said Melton, feebly. *Bad?” said the doctor. “Not very. I don't need any oil.” ““You must take this,” said the doc- tor, “unless you are well enough to go back to duty.” “I’ll go back then,” murmured Mel- ton, looking round apprehensively. ‘‘Adjusant,” 1 said, ‘“‘put him on double guard for shamming.” Thus the isiue was clearly defined, castor oil or double duty, and quite a number of them accepted the latter. The fun among the outsiders was up- roarious; bad jokes flew thick and fast. The curatives properties of castor oil bordered upon the marvelous, for next morning not over fifty men were re- ported on the sick list, e HOLMAN'S ROMANCE. The Great Objector Has a Story—Why He Cease 1 to Object to Pensions. Philadelphia Times: Representative Holman is not & man that babies would cry for nor children follow in the street. He has not a winning smile, and I do not believe he was ever guilty of a ca- ress, He is grizzled and dried up, not sowery old—only sixty-six—but dry and juiceless. His hair and scant whiskers are colorless, like stubbles in the hay- field, and his face looks so much like parchment that I always expect to hear & crackling in his cheeks when he opens his mouth to say anything. Mr. Hglman has made a reputation in congress by his lack of amiability; by preventing other men from getting what they want; by obf'uvliu y to every- thing that does not please fnim, and by advocating and practicing parsimony till it has become a proverb. Peo- ple who are going around with sub- scription papers always pass Holman by, and no one who is searching for a ro- mance would be likely to look for it in his record; but I heard a story the other day of his early youth that seemed al- most incredible, yet it is often true that fact is stranger than fiction, HI1S EARLY LOVE. Mr. Holman spent his early life just as Lincolun did, in & log house down in Southern Indiapa, and gothis schooling ails you this from itinerant pedagogues who had a scant knowledge of rending. writing and arithmetic, taught; to the boys ana girls in the winter, “boarded around,” and in the summers worked for the farmers in the neighborhood, Tor labor was so scarce that no one thought of going to school while the frost wag out of the ground. Then, ambitidus to know .-nmuthimi more than the colintry teachers could tell him he got a term or two at tho academy and became a teacher himself. One of his pupils was a daughter of the richest man in t$he neighborhood and the prettiest girl for miles around. Hol- man foll in loverwith her, agked her to marry him, but “got the mitten.” She was too ambitious to marry a poor fellow like him, who wore homespun, and took up with the son of a Louisville mer- chant. It wasalong time before the discarded lover recovered from the dis- appointment, particularly as the boys and girls teased him unmercifully about it, and their taunts at last drove him awny from the town in which he lived. He finally studied law and was admitted to the bar, went to the legislature, and then to congress, attaining prominence, as everybody knows. But he never quite forgot his early love. THE SOLDIER'S WIDOW. Soon after Garfield was elected presi- dent, Mr. Holman visited Louisville, and o gentleman called at his hotel to solicit his aid in obtaining a pension for the widow of aunion soldier, who, he said, was very much in need of the money. The claim had been rejected by the pension office on some techni- cality, although the facts were clear. Mr, Holman wanted to oblige his friend and inquired into the particulars of the case. ery soon it was disclosed that the claimant was the very same woman who had rejected him when he was a young man, and, although he declined’ to see her, he came to Washington with the papers in his pocket and made a strong effort to get a bill through the house of representatives. But he had objected to so many bills that other members were interested in that there were plenty of men to object to this, and for three sessions he tried in vain to get the pension granted. went to the members who w persistent in their objections and prom- ised not to interfere with them again if they would let him get his bill through. Of course they were glad to make such a contract with “‘the great objector,” and according to the understanding one morning he called up his pension bill, got it passed unanimously, and then fol- lowed it over to the senate, where he had no difficulty. When the measure became a law Holman wrote the lady a long letter, in which he made some tender allusions to old times and offered to do anything he could to promote her happiness. This explains why the gentleman from Indiana no longer objects to the consideration of pension bills. el ugue o Piles cured with certainty.
