"WINE OF CARDUI" makes rosy checks and clear complexions , At C. P , QooJuun'l FOREIGN MISSIONS. Especially That Connected With The M. B. Church. How The Evangelizing "Work in Ac complished. Sunday morning Mrs. M. J. Shelley , ( lie confcrcnco nccrclnry , do * live red n discourse in the South Oma- 1m M. E. cliurcli. Tlioro was a largo nnd fashioimblo nttondanco. In the course of hnr exhaustive address Mrs. Shelley said the missionary work they were undertaking was far inoro momentous thmi v/an popularly imagined. It meant carrying the glad tidings to millions of unconverted human beings. There were at pres ent thousands , even millions dying without n knowledge of the Lamb of God who came into the world to re deem souls. Thn Women's Foreign Missionary society has n grand work to accomplish. This society was in stituted to carry out certain mission ary work which could not bo effectual ly done by men. Those acquainted with the laws of caste will know that no man is over * allowed to enter the x.cnatias except the husband. No wo man is allowed to sco a man except her husband , The women even of the highest caste are kept in the greatest ignorance , and exclusion and they therefore can bo reached only by women. It is admitted by all travelers nnd others , that it is the wives of India that nro the chief pro pagators nnd supporters of idolatry. Missionary men have said , "you nro right : wo must educate our girls. Wo hnvo lost our influence among the nations of the earth , because our sons have no mothers. " Human society depends upon women for its moral elevation. If you want to raise a nation of infidels , you cannot do bet tor than place them under infidel teachers. This is exactly the plan the Women's Foreign Missionary Society have pursued nil over the world , to christianize the mothers of these Indian homos. When this is done the future of that people- fixed ; they will bo made Christian people. The women hnvo felt that they have boon called by God to undertake this work , nnd they hnvo nobly responded to the call. This work requires workers at homo and workers abroad. Some hnvo thought that nil that is required to carry out missionary work was to bo willing to leave homo and friends and go to distant lands. But there is a good deal of missionary work to bo done nt homo. The foreign mis sionary work requires its workers to bo cultivated and well trained ; nnd hence the society has been sending out young girls who have spent a number of years qualifying tliomsolvcs for such positions. They hnvo gene out relinquishing everything , their homos , their friends , the society of Christian allocations to consort with those de graded and uncivilized people. Out of fifty-two girls , not one have over proved a failure , not ono has been unwisely chosen. All have proved efficient nnd strong , and when the ranks have boon thinned the vacan cies have soon been filled up. This workjneods home workers , and they nro just as sacred in the Master's sight na those who go abroad. The sacrifice nnd the self-denial that these workers endure cannot bo esti mated. Homo workers project the plan that workers abroad carry out. Homo workers provide the moans for carrying out the work abroad. Both missions nro ono in spirit nnd ono in labor , that is to evnn- goli/.e the whole world. Some of the results of this work have boon mar velous. Since the institution of this society in 180 ! ) it has done seine glo rious work. It has two thousand live hundred and seventy-eight auxiliary societies , sixty-five thousand six hun dred and sixty-two members in the M. E. church , 3G2l ! lifo members. It sustains eleven American missionaries in China , nine in India , four in South America , seven in Japan , five in Mexico ice and two in Africa. It supports over two hundred Jtiblo women nnd native teachers ; six hospital * and dispensaries. It has likewise fifteen boarding schools with over seven hundred pupils , about a hundred and twenty-five day schools with neatly three thausand pupil * , three orphanages with about four hun dred orphans ; two homes for friendless - loss women. More than n thousand Hoiianas are regularly visited. To 'ok sustain nnd carry on nil this work : 8107,932.45 have boon appropriated. Between May , 1880 , and May , 1881 , 524,1118 have boon appropriated. : 3omo of the girls have studied modi- cina and these medical girls are doing > the grandest work , the heathen women - men not being allowed to sco oa male physician. The girls have great oppwrtunities of making their : way into the homos by means of their ) medical schools Borne of the native girls have passed medical examina tions nnd these are doing n grand work. The funds are all collected in small Bums. Part of the funds are derived from the Halo of paper rags. : An interesting fact in regard to this society is that none of the women con nected with this work got ono cent mof pay ; there is not single salaried oflicor except the girls who work abroad. Mra. Shelley concluded that it was a grand work and there was yet a - great deal to bo accomplished. They must pray to God to increase their zeal and strength to carry it on. Jumped the Track , At ton o'clock yesterday the iC. - B. & Q. train after crossing the Wabash VaP. bash road half a inilo from the U , P. depot at Council. BlutTs , jumped tin track , a switch being slightly open : jolted and allowed the engine , baggage . car and ono coach to leave the- track - The engineer and fireman spran ? win - the engine and were unhurt. Tin engine ploughed into the earth eng the track and at present stands loep ] in soft earth at an auglo of 45 degrees Some of the ties are broken and turn ed out of place , and BOUIO of tLo roil bent. The coaches that remained on the track were pulled back by another engine nnd switched onto the Wn- bash trnck. None of the passengers or officials were injured. Small Firo- There was an alarm of fire about noon yesterday thatsontlhofirodepart- mont down Farnham street at n lively pace. The cause of the alarm was the breaking out of a fire in a small frame building near the U. P. bridge. It originated through some children playing with matches. The fire VM pretty well under way when the engines arrived. The car riage of No. 2 secured an attachment with the U. P. tank , and gotn stream of water t playing. The building was damaged about § 1,000 worth. All household goods were saved. The house was occupied by n man named Lawrence Barrett. QUARTERLY REPORT Of Mrs. H. B. Puller , the City Missionary. The last three months have been broken in upon by sickness , and ex cessive heat , yet I have visited or worked 411 hours. In my last report I spoke about a "Homo for the Friendless , " and the necessity for this has been fully . de monstrated since then. I think it was the very evening thnt the report was read , that a woman came to mo bogging to stay over night , with tears she pleaded , "You won't turn mo into the streets will you ? " without friends , and without money , what was she to do ? If our doors are closed against such ns she , they seek refuge where nlono they can find it , in houses of sin. Wo deem that this unfits them thereafter for decent , Christian homes ; shall wo .stand acquitted nt the judgment ? Shortly after a baby watt loft on my hands for a week , for whom I was trying to find a homo by adoption. Then n girl was brought to mo who wanted a place to work for her board , until she could go to her mother in the south. I fear she was irnud , however , as the girl disappeared while I was trying to find a situation for her. her.Next Next came n woman from the west , with four little children , desiring to go to St. Joe to her'husband who was- sick. As ho is n railroad omployo,8ho had no doubt she could got to- her des tination , but her trunk was liehlntthe hotel , as she had not the means-to-pay her night's lodging , neither had she dinner for herself or children. The funds for this wore turnishcd through the kindness of friends. A woman also wanted to find o > place- for her two Httlo girls , and/ / aged mother , saying it was impossible for her longer to support them. And lastly the easeof n young girl of considerable notoriety who was at the time in the city prison , for drunkenness , was brought to my notice. She expressed an earnest de sire to reform and I thank God. there wore tound men tiuo and bravo enough , to como to her aid. ono of them saying , "Somo man wrought h jr ruin , shall not another help in the rescue ? " But , , meantime , she had to bo kept in the . city prison , ( nnd this of her own free will ) to save her from the demons who were prowling around her , knowing , that only by holdihg to her lips tlso ' poisoned cup , which she might not have strength to resist , could she bo brought within their power. A Chris * tian homo was opened to her , and whether she stall bo saved or not , t buy who have tried to do fchis , may bo blessed by the consciousaoss that tlioy have done \vlwt they could. Instances like this have occuretl before - fore , and these cases wharc some tem porary home is needed , are constantly on the increase. "Who * is to ba done with thorn J The question presses it self upon every Christian and every friend of humanity. Who is to act in thisIf / nothing is done who is to bo responsible ? On my sick list , is a lit * tlo boy eight years old , who has been in bed for two years. His homo is miserably poor , nnd ho is such a pa tient , winsome little follow , I hat I think if the children who enjoy the luxury of toys , could see him , they would bo glad to divide with him. Ono of our mission schools Eddie Miller died n week or two since ; and another a colored boy lies appear- ently at the point of death. Unlike many of his class , ho has been quiet and attentive in school , and ho ex presses his willingness to go and meet the Saviour ; and was tolling mo ono night when I watched with him , about the friends who were waiting for his coming on "tho other side. " If througn the influence of the school ' 1 , this ono soul is saved , they who have labored in it , through all these weary , discouraging years , need not feel that it has been in vain. Sprinkling Matters. The indications now nro that some street sprinkling will bo done and that very shortly. Mr. Thomas Swift was mot yesterdayonasolicitingtourof Douglas street. Ho said ho was mooting with considerable success. Ho does not intend to bother about en tering into a contract with the conn- cil , but will deal with the tenants di rectly. Another gentleman who has an interest in the sprinkling of St. Louis , was engaged in soliciting along Farnham street yesterdoy also. - Oommlxiionors , Meeting- At the mooting of the county com missioners held on Saturday , the , , county treasurer was allowed to col the personal tax of Harry H. Kirby t , . there having been n double assess ment. It was decided not to establish county ro d No. 175. The following proposals to build a fifty foot bridge near Millard were opened ; Win. Yon ronB. . Dohren , 531 ; Eli Johnson , $550 ; B. - F , Parks , $085 , and Missouri Valloj Bridyo and Iron Works , $075. COUNCIL BLUFFS. Things of Interest Transpiring in That City.

W. S. Rico , assisted by Abbott , with Harris and asS Spaulding ; as gunners. All the colored men in the city were making them selves conspicuous on horseback and in : carriages long before the proces sion started , The right honorable chief marshal of the day , Allen Forbes , announced that on account of the unavoidable Uclny of the ; morning train from Omaha the procession " would not move before 11 P"o' o'clock , at which hour the colored troops began to form on Broadway , the right resting on Pearl street.

On account of : the de lay as stated the line of march fixed la"I upon was abandoned entirely. . The procession marched up Broadway to Qlon avenns and thence to the picnic grounds ' in ( Jlendalo. On arriving at g'tl the grand stand Charley Warner called the assemblage to ordorand announced "nwisio by the Coach Whip band. " As the last strains died away Col. ? . H. Keatly and Hon. C'll.

Ho concluded by paying a beautiful Sributo to the ina > - iyr Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Koatlcy. in the course of his remark * yas loudly applauded.

" TUB MLUJHTS IN An alarm of l-ic was sent in yastor- tlay about nooui from Box 4. The firemen were out in their usual prompt manner and at work subduing the flames. It was. found that Rev , T. H. Cleland's house , on SovontliiStrcot , , was in flames. The firemen woru not long in chockiug the fire nnd finally succeeded in yutting it out. The fire originated from an ovorhea'.od ' steve in the kitchea , where they had boon ironing. This is the third time this year that thsa house has cwght lire. The firemen deserve n grtnt donl of praise for their prompt action and ofli- cient inantvjoinont of this , firo- the first that has occurred in this ity for some timo. Allen , who assaulted Mr. Brownold Saturday in front of Hell A Hall's. store on upper Broadway , was arrested and taken before Jud > c Burke yester day morning. After hearing the case the judge fined him § 0.85 , including costs. Mr. Browuold tiled n complaint - . plaint in Justice lixird's court charg ing young Allen , who assaulted him Saturday when ho confronted him with the same charge , breaking and entering his ( Brownold's ' ) house and ' stealing money and other valuables. Justice Baird issued a warrant and placed it in the hands of Constable Gaitar , who is now on the track of Allen. A drunken man , named Van Dine , was arrested yesterday by 'Km Toner , and lodged in the calaboose , for SBIt in himself off as a detective. It seems that Van Dine came to Council Bluffs and claimed to bo in search fane man who had robbed a bank sumo- whore , Ho went to police headquarters - arnd tors and reported that ho had found his man and wanted assistance to arras - rest him. He said the man ho was after was working for Oberfelder cc : Newman , on Broadway. Tun Toner wont to bberfoldor's store with the supposed defective , who pointed out to him a man named O'Rouke , a tailor , working at that establishment , whereupon Tina arrested O'Rookc and took him to the station. It turned ' od out that the whole proceeding woi a furco and ihat Van Dine was undo the influence of liquor. The judg. . ordered O'Rourke discharged at once and committed Van Dine until he so bgrod oil , when ho will be led to the bar and asked to give nn account of himself. James Johnson , instead of enitlln- ting his colored brothers in leaving liquor alone got so crazy drunk tuat ho went howling up to the recorder's oflico declaring that unless ho was locked up ho would take somebody's life. They were not long in granting his wish , and when in the morning ho has to help replenish the school fund to ( ho tune of about So and costs he'll wish that ho had not got quite so much ofFJiis base. During the fire yesterday and near the premises there was quito a riot. Four boys onccagod in a general knock down. They were arrested and locked up in the calaboose.
