Held Interesting Meeting.
There are seven Christian church
es in Cass county, and they have in
their Bible school entered into a
contest for seven weeks, and during
each week will meet one night at
one of the towns in which there is
one of the churches. The first one
to have the meeting was Murray.
Their meeting was here on last Mon
day evening with a large crowd of
Deoole here, there was a goodly num
ber of people from the Murray
church Plattsmouth was represented

ville by 8, and Avoca by 2. Matters
pertaining to the success of the con
test and of interesting more people
in tlie school of the church was dis
cussed. The matter of securing a
minister for the Murray church is
looking much brighter at this time
and it is hoped that such will be the
result. The next meeting will be
at Avoca and will be on Tuesday
of next week. The following week
the meeting will be held at Weep
ing Water. All interested should at
tend these meetings. The Rev. J.

the buildings, he was accosted by a
