Rev. Hauptmami Reslftns.
Last Sunday morning Rov. Win.
Hauptmann, pastor of the Congrogn
tlonnl church, tendered his resignation
as pastor of tho church, to take effect
March 1. Mr. Hauptmann did not
publicly givo his reasons for asking his
releaso, but it is understood that tho
fiuances of the church eocioty aro not
in a very flourshlng condition, and Mr.
Hauptmann has not boon paid as
promptly as he should have boon. Tbo
resignation of Rev. Hauptmann will
cause a seiious loss to tho church
workers of this city, and his place will
be hard to fill. He.ls a brilliant and
forceful speaker, and bis sermons have
the merit of being sincere. Red Cloud
can hardly afford to lose a minister of
Mr. Hauptmann's ability, and it is
hoped some arrangement may bo made
whereby he can be induced to with
draw bis resignation. '
