Yesterday was an important. and interest- ing day among the Methodists of the Des Moines conference, which inclides Council 1slufMs. Tho changes mude by the new ap- polntment of pastors went into effect yester- day. Many a congregation hald an oppor- tunity tosee what their new preacher was like, The largest. and oldest Methodist church in Council Bluffs is the Broadway church, The tearing down of the old building to make Toom for the now one necessitates the gather- ingof the congregation in a temporary placo of worship, the Masonic temple hall being used for t purpose. The large hall was nearly fill morning. Tho newly appointed pastor, Dr. Stuart, was in hig e, and the ‘retiring pastor, Mev. Mr. Ertanictin, whio s now to bo @ presiding oldor, sat besido him. The strotehing of necks, and uneasy shift- ing of the squeaking chiirs, indicated the common curiosity to get as s00n as possiblea view of the now proacher. Such efforts wore not rewarded by the discovery of anything strikingly peculiar. A man, mediim in ht, uge, and_good looks, wel! shuped head, professional eyes, incliding glasses, full heard, excopt tho smooth-shaven upper Tip--a man who with a Littlo more hair and a ittle it b taken, ab_a dis- Tanc 3 perintendent MeN aughton— such 'in brief was what greeted the curious 10, Eith the opeming prayer, and still more so after the sermon was fairly inunched, the thoughtof external man was speedily done away. With an eirnestness in voice and munner, and the entire freedom from notes and manuscrints, 1o plinly presented, s Thonghts on tho text o ki chosen,— “This is his name whereby he shall be called, “The Lot our Righteousness.’ The spealcer showed much careful research in his showing thofine differences of mean- ing _in the various appellations of di “Tho Lord” should be more correctly understood if its translators had dllowed the original Hebrow sword “ehiovah” to have remained. Jehovah wis the distinetivetitle of the Hebrew cov- enant, making God. In the account of crea- tion, and until the fall of man, God was spokien of, but when God begun muking his covenant with man, and had entered upon his plan of redemption, it was “Jelovah,” From virious uses of appellations of doity the speakeor drew the conelusion that these names themselvos taught the fact of redemption, In the physical world man could get some idea of God's ommiseienco and omnipotence, but it by revelation that man_gained any know ledie of the heart of God. In these roy- clitions the very names glven to God indi- cated the general plan of salvation. The latter part of the sermon was devoted to the consideration of righteousness. The preacher did not believe that Christ's vighteousness was transferred 10 man s @ sort ora covering for his sins. Fuith in Christ was the foundation ot vight- cousness, and through Christ man might bo wiilt up Into righteousness, but it was a righteousness of his own, 1o closed with an eurnest appeal for all to seek this happiness. Afterthoe sermon Rev, Dr. Stewart made a fow remarlks on his relationship as pastor of this chureh. Ho declared that he bad came hore with but ono purpose, that of - doing good. Ho wintedto help the church aud ho must needs be helped by the church. He might have personal peculiaritics which wight prove distasteful, butgthe thought that on becoming well sequainted they would find that, ho had o heart which had been touched by tho desiro for righteousness, Ho wanted to know his peoploand ho knew of them and to hasten tho accomplishment of —this he car- nestly invited them all to meet him i class und proyer mectings. bl R U:w”l per cent advance on Morningside lots et 1, Losey & Jensen paint houses, il 1.

Al tho printing is in what was sup- osed to be black ink in its da; but it looks like the press work dono on bac coun weeklies, where the “we” of the concern has converted a_cider press into printing machine and used qapple-butter for ink.

Consequently, though he dyes his wools in intense colors, huving fow others, heso combines them, so mixes them wite black and with that dark cream of which Europe has never eaught the secret, that the total result is restful, and the very idea of glare or of full daglight on the” patterns is entirely absent, Tt is precisely the same with Oriental jewels.” Thoeir' natural glare is |<.-{n down b mbination and want of polish. The Asiatic who earved in jade and sank deep inscriptions into sapphires could have faceted precious stones as well as the cutters of Amsterdam, who until lately used no machinery, but he did not desire to do it, Hewanted subdued effects, and made of the garnet a car- buncle—which is a miracle of color with- out glare—or he cut off, as we have seen in many emeralds, a mere corner, so the beholder, instead of being bothered with flashing green, should peepat will into green depths, We do not say he was altogether right —as regardsthe diamonds he wasal- together wrong—but we may rely on it that he knew his business, and when he failed that he intended to fml. His intense appreciation of turquoise wa due not only to admiration for its color which can be matched only by one or two flowers, butto the fuct that it is the one gem that, for all its brilliancy of color, does not flash. To this hour the high-class Asiatic loves the cat’s eye as the BEuropean never can, because the light init gives no pain, but reveals itself through a sort of dusky shade. The Buropean has made lovely jewels, and will muake lovelier ones,” but he never has made the jewels like those of the Asiatic, who with inmimitable art can take from gold all its glitter with- out diminishing by one iota the perfec- tion of its color, and will hand you a bit of enamel in which the green is as bright as the emerald, the redas fiery as the ruby and the whole as restful to the eye as a piece of turf, The Oriental jeweler has another merit, andin it lies the secret of a possiblo _great development in the demand for Buropean jewelers’ work. He always gives to his jewels a certainty of value, His gold is gold of unadulter- ated purity; his silver, truly silver of the standard; hisgems the stones they are said to be, and his work paid forat an understood and invariable rate. Thes consequences are that he makes little, and that the market for his com- moner wares never ceases, jewels being as much property as English sovereigns are—equally portable, nearly as capable of concealment and as fixed in value e “*King of Baffalo, U.S. A Mr, William D, Eaton, isstill in Lon- don, writes Eugene Field in the Chicago News.

Immed- iately he charged at full speed. Thero was 1o time 1o reverse the lever or any thing else, save to look on. The bull struck the coweatcher with every one of his thousand pounds. The shock lifted the engine two feet from the track, broke the front truck, derailed one set of drivers and threw off every car be- hind it. The iron was torn up for twenty feet.
