At the ministerial meeting this morning it was decided to call Rev. Cha6. N.

They have been in Chicago for a month where the ex senator has been engaged in import ant legal business. The senator is the picture of robust health, looking as yonng as he did ten years ago. 'The Chicago courts work short hours." he said, comparing the Chicago conrts with these in Nebraska. "They con vene at 10 :30 a. m. in the morning, work till 12:30. Then they take a recess till 2 :S0 ana work till 4 :30. Chicago courts are three years behind with their business. They could do much more if they would try. How ever, it is difficult to secure witnesses in Chicago. It is often necessary to send fifteeen miles for a witness in the city and when the officer finds the right place, the witness is gone and it is necessary to wait for him to retnrn. The state does not pay its witnesses in Illinois, nor the defend dant's attorney, if the defendant was a panper. When the court asked me what time I wonld be ready for trial the next day, I replied,' seven o'clock'. He shrugged his shoulders and said that 9:30 wonld be plenty early enough. Mr. Allen thinks we have more district judges than necessary and seemed to be mnch interested in the bill before the legislature decreas ing the number. It is pretty generally conceded that Mr. Allen is one of the ablest United State senators of Ne braska ever had. Lighting Question Opened. The lighting qustion is fairly before the city council. At their meeting last night propositions were received from Dr. Heintz for electric lights and from the Columbus Light and Fuel Company, for gas lights. Dr. Heintz presented two propositions. One, to furnish 19 arc lights and 40 incandescent lights for the sum of 12000 a year, the incandescents to run all night and the arc lights until mid night. The other proposition of Dr. Heintz was to furnish 30 aic lights for 12000 a year. The proposition of H. A. Clarke, Jonas Welch and K. S. Dickinson was embodied in an ordinance which was read for the first time. These gentle men propose to furnish 75 lights of GO candle power at $22.50 each per an num, the contract to run five years. They offer to furnish fuel gas at $2 per thousand cubic feet. The council will hold a special meeting next Friday night to consider the question further. boy the an- l of Debaters Announced.
