remain hero if $8,000 of the debt is
raised. This week an effort will bo
made to secure the $1,000 still lacking
on that amount. It will doubtless be
raised , for a failure to do &o will result
in his going.
The city election will bo held two
weeks from to-day , and three members

At an early hour yesterday morning
Olllcers Isonborger , Mullen , anil fowler ,
raided the joint on lower Broadway ,
near the Northwestern depot , kept by
Mrs. Pralor , and arrested a gang of six ,
who were gambling in a back room , and
whirled thorn to police headquarters in
the patrol wagon. The prisoners gave
the names of C. 13. Drisdon , Gcorgo
Smith , John Sampson , Beverly Field , J.
Vennblc , and .1.11. Smith. They arc
till colorcdindlvidualsand somoof thorn
are well known to the police. Drisdon
was the only one who could furnish
bonds , and he was released , but the
others spent Sunday in the city jail.
The Pralor ranch bears rather a hard
name , and several rackets have origi
nated there. It was there that a man
named Bolcn was shot abouta week ago ,
but nothing was done concerning the
ca o. At the rate lit which things are
going , it will soon bo time for the pro
prietress to move again. She conducted
a plaeo for months right under the
shadow of the government building ,
but moved a short time ago. and since
that time her "restaurant" has not been
quite so much under the eyes of the
police. The portion of the city in
which she now holds forth lias enjoyed
comparative peace and quiet for the
pat year nnd si half , since the notorious
"Tox" Baker and wife were sent to the
penitentiary for keeping a hoiibo of
prostitution in the neighborhood.
The charge placed on the police reg
ister opposite the names of the men ar
rested yesterday is to the cllect that
they were "gambling Sunday morning. "
The inference is that , according to the
standard of morality adopted by the city
administration , gambling during the
week is right and proper , but that after
midnight Saturday and until midnight
Sunday , a different rule is in force , and
that then , and then only , docs gambling
become a crime. However , even the
slightest improvement is to bo com
mended , and the attempt of the olllcials
to enforce the law oven one day in the
week should moot with public approval.
The hearing of these ca < es will como
up this morning before Judge Ayles-
worth.

I'ronnriiifr ' 'or More
A part of the machinery for the now
incandescent electric light plant of the
Council BlutVs Klectric Light company
arrived yesterday , and will be placed in
position sis soon as possible. The two
largo dynamos , 1.500 and 750 light-ca
pacity respectively , together with the
small companion dynamo for each ,
known as the ' 'exciter , " are now here ,
with all necessary connections , as well
as the "converters , " ' which are to bo
along the circuit where the house wires
leave the main lino. The object of
these "converters" is , as their name im
plies , to convert the current in suitable
quantities from the principal wire to
the smaller branch lines. The work of
putting in these "converters" will be
commenced at once. As soon as this is
done , the remaining work will bo di
rected to the two ends of the line , to
place the drops in the buildings at ono
end , and to get the dynamos and en
gines in position ut the other. It will
be impossible to set up the dynamos im
mediately as the building isnot ( juito
ready. The walls are all up line the
mason work completed , but tbo building
is not quite enclosed. It will probably
require the greater part of the present
week to finish it. The engines that are
to furnish the newer to run the now
plant are on the road , and it is time that
they wcro here , ft was expected to
have the plant in readiness for opera
tion by the 1st of Mareh.but the weather
of the past few days has boon unfavor
able and it will possibly bo a week later
than was intended before everything is
complete. The gang which has been
stringing wires has that work- well
under way , and the central portion of
the city as well as the residences nnd
business houses of hundreds of the sub
scribers are already wired.
Dull riiillinehs.
The effect of the sudden cold snap
was noticeable on the streets yesterday.
The principal thoroughfares wcro neat-iy
deserted , and even the motor cars ,
which usually present such a lively ap
pearance with their crowds of passen
gers , looked desolate and lonesome as
they glided quietly by. The churches
were not as well filled as they ordinarily
are , nnd the average BlulTilo seemed to
prefer to stay indoors , rather than face
the chilly atmosphere and uninviting
appearance of the outer world. About
noon it tried to snow , but tlio weather
wns too cold , and the attempt was given
ui > i disgust. The mercury lingered
bashfully around the 7.0 ro point durinir
the entire day , and could not bo prevailed -
vailed upon to look up. The sun was
evidently absent on some foreign mis
sion , and failed to put in an appearance.
In fact , it was jiiot the kind of a day that
the clerk of the weather might dish up
simply for spite , and was doubtless owing
to the fact that that erratic individual
had just awakened to a reali/.ing sense
of the situationt and was determined to
get in a little genuine winter this sca-
bon , bcforo his last opportunity had
passed , _

Nccleot of the Scriptures.
"Thoio is a gross neglect among
Christian people in the searching of the
scriptures , " said Rev. James Haynes
yesterday morning in prefacing his ser
mon at the Broadway Methodist church.
"The scriptures contain the 'words of
eternal life , ' says the Apostle John.
The filth chapter and thirty-ninth
verso has this injunction : 'Search the
scriptures , tor in them ye think ye
have eternal life ; and these are they
which testify of Mo. " In Christ was
eternal life given to the world , and the
scriptures are the testimony oj God and
men , not only concerning Jesus himself
but of the plan through which life is
given 'to a dead world.
'An intelligent knowledge of those
oil-important fncts cannot bo gotten by
any means other than a porconnl
searching of God's word. It will not dote
to trust to the expositions of coinon-
tutors. They are but liumnn niicl are
liable to err. Even "their translations
are often faulty. As salvation is a per
sonal matter in which no other can
share our responsibility , so our educa
tion in the things that pertain to that
salvation rests entirely upon us.
"A mere superficial rending is not
what the text implies. Neither does it
mean that the bible is to bo road by
course , from Genesis-to Revelation ,
although by this means a perfect
familiarity with the book is gained. It
means that that the scriptures are to bo
searched , studiedinvestigatedthought
fully , nrayorfully , to got the testimony
of eternal life and the process of its
giving to men.
"A personal knowledge and under
standing of the scriptures will defeat
any skepticism and the arguments of
infidelity. The reason why Christians
are often overcome by these bophcstrics
is because they do not know what the
bible says concerning these thing.
Against every point which infidelity can
raise ( Jed gives arguments which
are unanswerable. It is the duty and
should bo considered the privilege of
Christians to fortify their faith with
these fncts. No matter for what pur
pose the scriptures are searched they
are sure to lead ono to Christ. If in
fidels will study the Word carefully they
will tlnd such nrguments against their
theories as will force them to abandon
their positions and embrace eternal
life.
life."You do not llnil any poor syntax In
the biblu. God guided the hands of the
apostles when thev wroteso that what
was written is God's word to men si
revelation of Himself and His will. The
bible says exactly what it means. Its
verbs , nouns , tenses , etc. , nro just what
and where God would have them. 1
have not had a , personal proof of nil the
statements the bible contains , but many
of them I have proven In my own ex
perience. I never 'saw the righteous
forsaken nor his seed bcgginc bread. '
Did you ? The whole bible is in perfect
keeping with the Christian experience ,
't ' contains the world's main stock of
facts. Thus it is taken out of the realms
of faith and put upon the broad plane of
universal experience. The facts it eon-
tains have been verified , either in your
observation or experience , and if you
will pause a moment you will linu in
this fact a good ground for your faith in
the scriptures.
"Many persons complain of the tire
someness of the bible ; that it is dry and
uninteresting. This is because they read
and do not'search. ' The bible is the
epitome of history , poetry , human life ,
and if ono reads carefully and in the
proper spirit , it will prove to bo the
most interesting reading and lead the
soul to the perfect understanding of
God's plans concerning His creatures. "

Stanley in Oiniilin.
*
Mr. T. W. Blackburn , formerly of
Omaha , now associate editor of the Los
Angeles Tribune , contributes the fol
lowing to the columns ot that paper :
The San BernardinoTimesstates that
Stanley was formerly a writer on an
Omnlm paper and fell -in love with a
widow in that city. His suit being re
jectedho left Omaha in disgust , becom
ing tlie famous Afaican explorer. Tlio
Santa Barbara Independent , quoting
Johnson's ene.yelopepia. thinks the San
Bernardino paper is in error , as the
sketch of the explorer's life in the en
cyclopaedia raukes no mention of the
Omaha episode.
Tlio facts are that Henry M. Stanley
wont to Omaha as n correspondent of
the Now York Herald in 18S or 51) ) .
His instructions when ho loll New York
were to go * o Pikes Peak , thn gold ex
citement in Colorado being at that time
at its highest pitch. Finding that
Omaha had as good a location to obtain
Pikes Peak news as Colorado itself , the
gifted newspaper man remained there ,
and wrote his scries of articles on the
gold excitement in that city. Stanley
was young , handsome , something of a
gallant , and fond of adventure , lie fell
in lovo'with an nctrcbswho was then on
the boards of the old academy of music a
vaudeville actress by the way. She was
a coquette and flirted with young bloods
of the city who had more money than
Stanley. When Stanley got perfectly
crazy in his affection for her , she ar
ranged a meeting with him after the
performance and , posting her friends ,
among whom was an Omaha Herald re
porter , had them stationed behind the
Bconcs to observe the results. Stanley ,
honest in his infatuation , knelt before
the woman and protested desperately.
She amused herself at his expense for
eoino time and then called in her con
cealed friends , much to her lover's biir-
priso and disgust.
The reporterfearing the consequences
if ho ventured to relate the incident in
his own paper , went over to Council
Blulfs and inserted a highly colored ac
count of the atl'nir in a Council BlulTs
newspaper , Mr. Stanley mot him BOOH
after it appeared on the corner of Four
teenth and Farnuni , where the Paxtou
hotel now stands , and gave him a sound
thrashing , The olfonding reporter ,
whoso name was MnoDonagh. resided in
Nebraska for twenty-live years after this
episode , and published a paper during
nil of those years. His interview witii
Stanley was never forgotten , however ,
nnd many a time ho was obliged to read
its harrowing details as his rivals and
contemporaries rang the changes upon
the story. This information is given
ujon positive authority for the benefit
of our San Bernardino and Santa Bar
bara contemporaries.
