Christians , Jio asserted , are not found at the dance or the theater , nor do they play cords. These things belong to a worldly life , end have no tart In the Christian's experiences.

KEEPS HIS LINE OF-'DlFtNSE A SECiUT HIM Urn mill .SHJ-H .VolliliiK , lint tin- Auditor tilvi'M Out ti _ KliiMi of tinKlnniu'liil" Stiitc f the City. City Attorney Hnzclton has commenced preparing his answer to the petition for an Injunction fled by J , J , Shea on Thursday , and Is very confident that the city's showing when the case comui up for hearing will bo such that the court will not sus'aln Shea's c'alm for a restrain ing order. The course that will be taken by the dcfcrao was not divulged. The finance committee of the city council and Finance Clerk True were busy yesterday checking up the treasurer's hooks , but found tlmo to talk a little about the suit. The general opinion was that It might bo the means of Increasing the clty'o tax burden , even should the application be denied next Monday. Mr. True has handled all city warrants for a number of years. When he first began to buy city warrants a few yeirs ago they were hawked around the country , and selling at a discount of 20 per cent. Within a year ho had reduced this to less than 10 per cent , and for the last alx or eight years the discount has not been greater than G per cent. Ho Ins had no dllllculty In securing eastern capital to take care of thcao warrants. Early this year the bids for the larger warrants were at par , and In the middle of the summer Mr. True was obliged to send back over $8,000 which has been sent to him for Investment In city warrants , for the reason that the warrants could not I be obtained. Those warrants have been held for many years by tlo | same financial houses and none of them have over been put Into judgments against the city. Mr. True and the finance committee feared that Shea's threat might force these eastern capitalists I to take prompt steps to place their warrants [ In judgment. In that case the city wou'd have to levy Increased taxes at once to take i them up , regardless of the constitutional limits of the city's debt. "Nothing but evil can como of Shea's action In whatever way you look at It , " sajs Mr. True. "It's a menace against the earnings of all of tha members ot the flro department , the police department and every city employe , for Us effects must bo the depreciation of the war- mil to with which they nro paid. Many employes have kept their warrants for the last two years , and tha threat Is also against their savings. " AUDITOR EVAN'S SHOWING. City Auditor P. L. Evans was asked by many Interested cltlzcrs for a statement of the financial condition of the city at the present time , and his books were open dur ing the greater part of the day. In answer to the great demand for positive Information ho prepared the following- statement of the situation on October 1 : General fund warrants. . $142r > 03.CI ( Special funds warrants , . 72.12 Water fund , warrants. . . . 53,375.00 Total warrants out standing . . $19j,9oG.7S 110NDS.

This will reduce the total debt Just that much , and the report will show In addition that over $8,000 worth of bonds have been paid since October 1 , STEADILY DECREASING DEBT. A comparailve statement of the city's total debt at the present time with previous yeara as far back as 1893 makes a still better showing of the careful end successful man ner In which the financial affairs of tha mu nicipality have been cared for since all of the departments of the city administration have been under republican control. In 1893 the total debt was $882,341.42 ; in 1894 it was $885,924.42. ; In 1895 It had been reduced to $812,813.09 ; In 1S96 to $764,266.75 , and on March 1 , 1897 , the reduction had brought It down to $638,129.32 , and the result of the hammering process had further reduced It to $636,656.78 on October 1. The November report will show a still further reduction of about $70,000. Every dollar of this debt wa-j Incurred while the city was In the hands of the demo cratic party. The first part of It and the greater part was contracted under the ad ministration of W. R. Vaughari. Many bonds eold during that administration drew the ruinous Interest of 10 per cent , and the bonds vero sold at a corresponding discount. All ot those bonds that were drawn so that It could bo done have been refunded , some as low as 414 per cent. A comparative statement of the expenses of running the city administration since 18S8 furnishes strong argument In support of the claim of good business management. From that year until 1891 the gross expenditures over the gross Income for current expenses ranged from $40,000 to $10,000 annually and during these years the greatest Income the city has ever had ivas received. For the 'ast five years the expenses have ranged from $19,000 to $12,558.48 less than the Income - como with greatly reduced receipts. This year the savings will bo proportionately lareo , HH Hit * Kxroutor'N Heiinrt , In the district court yesterday the report of W. A. Maurcr , one of the executors of the estate of the late John Dobany , was the subject for considerable dlscucslon , The re port was objected to by H , C. Cory on. the general grounds tbit It showed a lack of disposition on the part of the executor to care for the debtors of the estate. The re port showed the collection of a large amount of money , nearly $8,000 , and no payments upon claims filed within the first six months. It showed that there had been paid the sum of $1,100 to two of the heirs , and that $1,500 had been paid out for repairs on the property of the estate. Cory apd W. S. R'llrd ' , the attorney - tornoy who represented him. hold severil claims against the estate , and this was the cause ot their objections. The court refused to entertain the objections but agreed to make an order to the effect that the money received hereafter from the estate should bo first used for keeping up the repairs , paying taxes and Insurance and the balance to be applied on the payment of claims. W. A. Maurer , as trustee and one of the exec utors , was allowed $50 a month from July 26 , 1895. In approving the report of Executor - utor Maurer the court took special occasion to commend the excellent management ho had shown In caring for all ot the Interests of the large property that had been consigned to hit * care.

The vote of the middle-of-the-road popu lists , national democrat and prohibition tick ets was not reported from all over the coun ties , but the various committees estimate their total votes as follows : Populists , 5t > 30 ; national democrats , D.434 ; prohibition , 10,692. With these estimated the total vote of the otato Is 440,160. This Is a decrease from the total vote of last fall of 81,387. In spite of this decrease Mr. Shaw received a larger vote than was over cast for any republican candi date In Iowa , except McKlnley. His vote Is 15,841 larger than that by which Governor Drake was elected two years and 17,734 more than Governor Jackson received In 1893. On the other hand , White's vote Is 13,937 less than the vote given Molest In 1891 and * 25,000 less than the democrat and populist vote cast that year. The popocratlo campaign this year was the strongest ever made by that pirty for state ofllces , and the results , as shown by the above comparison , prove that Iowa does not show zny tendency toward free silver. The campaign on the part of the republicans was fought on the St. Louis platform , and Mr. Shaw discussed the money question In his speeches to the exclusion , practically , of all other Issues. Concerning the result , ho says that the democratic galna do not indicate an Increase In the free silver sentiment , what ever Bryan and his followers may claim.

LYNESS ESCAPES The Hospital and a Fearful Operation. Hospitals in greatcities are sad places to visit. Tlircc- fourths of the patients lying on these snow-white bcdso are women and girls. Why should this bo the case ? Because they have neglected themselves ! 'Women as a rule attach too little importance to first symp toms of a certain kind. If they have toothache , ( they will try to save the tooth , though many leave even this too late. They comfort themselves with the thought that they can replace their teeth ; but they cannot replace their internal organs ! Every one of those patients in the hospital beds4 had plenty of warnings in the form of bearing-down ( feelings , pain at the right or the left of the womb , nervous dyspepsia , pain in the hinall of the back , the ' " blues , " or some other unnatural symptom , but they did' ' not heed them. Don't drag along at home or in the shop until you are finally obliged to go to the hospital and biibmit to horrible examinations and operations I Build up the female organs. Lydia E , 1'inhham'n Vegetable Compound will save you from the hospital. It will put new life into you. The following letter shows how Mrs. Lyncss escaped the hospital and a fearful operation. Her experience Hhnuld encourage other women to follow her example. She bays to Mrs , Pinklmm : " 1 thank yon very much for what you have done for me , for 1 had given up in despair. Last February , I hud a miscarriage caused by overwork. It affected my heart , earned me to have sinking spells three to four a I day , lasting boiuctimes half a day I 'could ' not bo left alone. 1 ilowed con stantly. The doctor culled twice a day for a week , and once a day for four weeks , then three or four times a weelc for four months. Finally he said I would have to mi- dergonn operation. Then I commenced taking Lydia 15. I'inhham's Vegetable Compound , and after one week I began to recover and steadily improved until I was cured completely. Uv taking the Pinklmm medicine , I avoided an operation which the doctor said I would certainly have to undergo , I am gaining every day and will cheerfully tell anyone what you Imvo done for me.
