A Clint AVItli City Attorney Holmes- Tlie CJuurclh' New Armory Organ izing it HIIHO Team Diamonds 1'iclccil Up In the Street. The Two The evangelists , Messrs. Smcad and Smith , are doing grand work in the inter est of having men. Comparatively little is known here concerning them , although their vork during the. past has been very wltlo spread and effective. Like all successful evangelists , they are both possessed of n strong personality , which impresses one forcibly either in per sonal contact or in their public work. Mr. Henry O. Sinead is n Yankee , born and bred. He left Hhodo Island , his native state , in 1870 , coining to Min neapolis. Nine years ago ho was con verted , and feeling impressed with a special call to this work ho immediately began it , but through the Y. M. C. A. Ho was connected with the work of this organization in Minnesota , Kansas , and also in Iowa. Five years ago ho began work as an evangelist. In person he is below the average in build and weight , of a nervous temperament , and when deeply interested he rises to the stature of a giant almost. His contact is mag netic and ho wins the heart of his auditor first and convinces him by his logical , matter of fact manner of stating bible truth afterward. His is not an eloquence which dazzles the intellect , but rather that which reaches the heart and conscience. His associate is of a dilTerent type. Arthur , L Smith is a Canadian by birth , though his parents were born in the state of Maine. Ho was reared in the faith of the Protestant Episcopal church of England , and in this was ordained and licensed to preach by Bishop Pad dock of Massachusetts. After the ago of ten ho lived with his parents in the htato of Vermont. Ho was very early impressed with the divine call , and set about preparing himself for the work. Like Mr. Smcad ho began with the Y. M. C. A. Ho was not a natural singer , but to render his work moroelTeotive ho determined to develop what faculty ho had. lie entered the Boston conserva tory of music , and took a thorough course in voice culture. So successful wore his ollorts that few men in public to-day caii equal Mr. Smith as a vocal ist. Ho is magnetic ; renders his work with great intelligence , interpret ing clearly and in a man ner that wins his hearers. Mr. Smith says that ho believes him self the first and only man over em powered by the Episcopal church to do evangelical work , lie is about twenty- live years of age , and having long years apparently ahead of him in this work , and possessing most excellent ability us a speaker , as well as a singer , ho will yet make himself felt in the calling ho iias chosen. He has been engaged in this work but two years and this is the lirst place which they have both visited together. Yesterday afternoon a mass meeting' ror men was held at the Baptist church. The auditorium was crowed to its ut- nest capacity , the audience coining 'rom the various church organizations is well as from none whatever , and Mr. Smith delivered a short but olToctivo iddrebs from the text , ' ' .But Now God Commandeth Men Every where to Repent. " Ho discussed the subject negatively. Hopentanco ib not fear ; it is not fooling nor conviction merely. All these are adjuncts to ro- Dcntanco. It is a "right about face. " When a man has been traveling in ono direction ho turns squarely around and goes the other way. At the close of the service quite a number arose for pray ers , and at the after meeting which bllowcd plant ) wore i > orfected for the urthering of the work while these gen tlemen are here. There have been a lumber of conversions already , and the ndications promito much along the inc. inc.Tho The G o'clock meeting at the same church was well attended and was con- luctcd by Mr. J. M. Oursler. Thoovon- ng services wore held in the Prcsbyto- ian church. The meotingsduringthis week will bo continued in the Baptist church unless the attendance- should re- pjiro moro room , in which event the Presbyterian church will bo used.

At the city council mooting this oven- ng City Solicitor Holmes will submit a oport on the question of repealing the , 'iis ordinance , which was referred to lim a short time ago. In conversa tion with a Bii2 representative on this subject yesterday , Mr. Holmes o.x- iressed himself as follows : "This gas' question is ono in which all of our citi zens are doubtless interested , and on which nearly everybody takes occasion to comment and offer suggestions , al though their only accurate knowledge of the facts in the case is that the pres ent price of gas is too high. They talk very glibly about what ought to be lone , and toll how to do it , without con sidering llmt all proceedings must bo n accordance with law or they will not amount to anything. Now , thonj I don't suppose that any- jody knows just what ordinance this company is doing business under , and t is something that will have to bo EOttlcd by the courts. I think that mrts of both ordinances are in ofTcd , nit am of the opinion that the present ranchise expires February 2 , 18S9. It s argued that the company has Violated ho terms of its charter and it should be orfoitod. Now wo will suppose that ho council repeals the ordinance , vhlch they have a perfect right to do. . 'ho gas company lias a plant hero , vliich cost them many thousands of lollare , and it is not to ho supposed that hey would give it up without a contest. i'ho limit of the expiration of the charter , cvou if it is not until March 30. 1800. is altogether too near at hand for the city to enter into a lawsuit , which could not possibly be terminated by that time , and would leave the case in controversy after it would otherwise hnvu quietly settled it- eclf. eclf.What would I do ? Why I would ad vertise for bids for a now plant at once , to bo opened on the 2d day of February , 1889. and the present company would boone ono of the bidders. Let the contract to the lowest bidder , and then if the tild company got left , and wanted to maKe a fight , le't them light it out with the now ono to tholr heart's content. This city is different from all others in the state with two or three excep tions , in that the city owns the streets. The city was laid out and settled before the land came into market , and when it was finally granted by the government tlita land was deeded to Frank Street , in trust for the people , who now own the street and always will , instead of abutting prop erty owners. If the city sees lit to grant another charter it can do so , but I am positive that there will be no more exclusive franchises. I think that here after the city will regulate the price of gas , which it could not do when the gas charter now in force was granted. If the old company desires to continue the manufacture of gas hero it will have to do as well as other companies are will ing to do. The gas question should not bp al lowed to interfere with electric light ing , which wo ought to hive , gas or no gas. It is claimed that we can get an incandescent lighting plant established hero that will furnish sixtcon-candlo power lights , to run until 10 o'clock , for fiO cents per month , and until midnight for 75 cents per month. That is some thing that would bo of benefit to { , ho merchants' and others , for business houses and residences , But as far as the gas question is concerned , I know what I would do if I was mayor , but I shall not make any suggestions. I have looked up the law and the facts in the case and inuko my report to-morrow evening.5' The Council Bluffs Lumber Co. want you to try some of their coal. - + - Sleigh bolls , slctls and skates.

The knitting factory will run until about the Ist'of January , at which time the stock of yarn now on hand will bo made up , and some kind of a change will then bo made. The factory is now in charge of Mr. Mullin , who has bought out the yarn and manufactured goods now on hand , but the plant belongs to the syndicate. Mr. Mullin states that this is a splendid location , and that bus iness is very good. A great many local orders are received for work , and the business is on u good paying basis. It is hardly probable in view of these fads that the enterprise will be allowed to die. It is expected that a transfer of some of the stock will allow the business to be conducted on a much larger scale than over before. See Forrest Smith's special column.

The Harvard /Viinex / , Harpers Bazar : This now school , which has already been much to many women , had its first homo in an unpre tentious old brown wooden house in Appian Way a short street west of Harvard square , running from Brattle street northward to Garden street , in the plain old town of Cambridge , in the plain old state of Massachusetts. This was a private house , and part of ituis occupied as a dwelling. The annex had butthroo rooms. They wore used two as lecture rooms and ono as library. The two lecture rooms wore perfectly plain , both architecturaly and in fit ting. The library , also plain , was used by the girls as a study and general meeting place. It had book cases full of books of reference , dictionaries in various languages , encyclopedias , including , of course , the " 'Encyclopedia Britannica , " standard histories and numerous classically books in other de partments. There wus a rug , an ordin ary library table , a few wicker chairs , some chintz-covered window seats , sim ple muslin curtains , and in ono corner a little case or cabinet , on what our grandmothers called a "light stand. " On this cabinet lay that which was. as it wore , the only visible material link which bound the annex to the univer sity. This was the book in which pupils wrote their answers for the books to bo drawn from the college library. Near this book .vas a shelf. About one end was a card with the word ' 'delivered , " and here were the books brought in an swer to orders , Above the other was a card with the word "returned , " and there wore books read and ready to bo taken away. Hero , to this corner , at noon ouoh day , came a boy , who took the order book , and also the books that had been read. Later in the day ho reappeared , put the order book in its usual place , and deposited on the shelf the books wanted , Thus the inexhaustible supplies of the great ON ALL CASH SALES !

ThebO two cards , saying so little but weaning so much , with the traditional bird of wisdom between ( stulTcd as birds usually are ) , together with a number of very pretty pictures , were the only adornments of the room. Such was the fh > t home of the annex. In 1882 it moved to a. new ono a little further westward. This is an old house in Garden street , facing the common , known the "Round-houbo ' ' formerly as - , but more recently chrihtened Fay hall. It has a bit of lawn and some line trees about ; the finest of all , venerable with ago and slowly dying , is the his toric "Washington Elm , " the tree , that is , as everyone knows , the ono under which Washington took command of the army which later drove King George across the sea. It stands in the gtrect just in front of the gate. The front door of the house is u big , old- fashioned hall. Pictures hang hero and there , but the most noticeable thing is a largo plaster cast ol some Greek mabtcrpicco. The door on the left hand side as ono enters the hall loads into the reception room. This room conforms in shape to the wall at the end of the house , which is bomi-cir- cular , and which gives the house its peculiar name. The room is at once asthetic and homelike. A big rug , pretty chairs , pictures and odd brie-a-brao , aided * somewhat by the unique shape , give it a charming effect. On the right hand is a door leading into the largo lecture room ; behind that is a room used fora little of everything. These rooms , together with some odd crannies unit the hall for wrappings , make up the llrst lloor. The second lloor is used also for lecture rooms ; hero , loci , is a laboratory and the secre tary's room. Kucli Icctnro room is titled out with small cherry tables and chairs , and the wall is hung with photo graphs of world famed subjects. The laboratory is well equipped with the usual apparatus. Still higher in the building is u library , a very coxy room , with its books , tables , pictures and an open llro sputtering cheerfully in the grato.
