There have been. some half-dozen suits for selling, delivering, or giving away beer in this city by outside par- ties during the last few weeks. and every use has been settled without trinl.

S, ALEXANDER The law of the state provides that incorporated cities. towns and vil- lages has, among its other powers one "To license, regulate and‘pro- hibit the selling or giving away of intoxicating malt, vinous, mixed or fermented liquors," and then with this authority from the statefiour city council has at various times passed liquor ordinances, till this last one Which not only prohibits the 'sale, but the delivery on orders, no matter how or where the orders were given to the liquor seller. Of course the minced and express companies can deliver cases of liquor on orders, though not sell, for the courts have decided that these companies are the agents not the liquor seller, but of purchaser. So also if a Park resi- dent wants a case of beer, he can go to Highwood, buy it and bring it home in his buggy and no one will disturb him. Where the ordinance comes in however, is when, as has sooften happened, some one in the Purl; has sent an order to a Highwood dealer for a case of beer, more or less, end the Highwood dealer’s wagon has brought it down here and delivered it. This last and newest ordinance was framed to meet just that phrase 0f the case. But the majority of these dealers did not know theuordi- 31108 went that far, and put-their foot into it. But like men all came to the court and on agreement by the city Oficials paid ten dollars each alid costs and promised to keep ‘BWBy from here. ln trenches deep.

The electric road is not exactly a missionary organization. but it takes good care of missionsirâ€" ies when they do go out. This time it made a good rate, hence the large number of crusaders. Arthur Evans went up as a sort of a guidetoleeoort them down here. They reached the church door at 8 o’clock. formed in- toliue two abreast. marched in sing- ing sacred martisl songs. and filled the front seats. With Mrs. C. H.

Diver, Lin- coln Murray and W. Hal-(linger. two of whom wer'e impromptu as two of the selected spaniel! could not come. Each speaker had his part ofthe subject mighed him and spoke ta Rahal” to hi5 time also. Then followed a brief conse- crationservice, open to all present though only twu or three of our people took part. The spirit of the entire service was most ex. eellent. There was no froth. n; pumped up enthusiasm about it. but a good healthy. holy zeal and enthusiasm antl a vast deal of in- telligent. practical Christian talent in exercise. There was nothing specially bi'illiant in the remarxs, or gifted in the prayers, but there was a lot of spiritual life and fer- vor and power. In fact. it wasan excellent meet- ing and itdid one good to come up alongside such robust. earnest, Christianity. The service was just one hour and closed promptly on the minute. At its close there was a general ha'nd shaking. be crusaders went over to their spec- ial ear and in due time reached home safely and refreshed in body. soul and spirit and the Monday evening papers of the Bluff City gave most glowingaceounts ofthc affair. On their return they left aribbon of gospel song all the way from the Park to V‘Vaukegan.
