Dr. Wlinlou Frenches a Seimon Reviewing His Flr&t Year's Fan- loiatc. At III'- Herein Huptlst church yes t' nlay morning tin- Hev. Or. 11. J. Wlmlon, the pastor. In his him mini, re viewed tin; work that h.nl boon done tin.' past year In that church, which was also the llrst nf his paHtnnili' III this city. The clergyman, In a concise siatemenl, showed what hail Ihvii ue- "iiipllshod ami what could he expect ed In t ho coming year if the present harmonious rotations continue. Tho text of Or. WimDn's sermon was from Samuel, villi:.', '"riicn Samuel look a stone ami set II between .Mlzpah and Sehurczah anil called the unmet of It Kbonozor, suyiiiK. 'hitherto the Kuril h.ilh helped us.' " Tho text, said tlii- clergyman, hud teforenoe to the delightful custom which existed In olden times of mark iiR with a white Mono something which needed to lie coinuu'Uiorated. Samuel tailed Hie name of the place Kbenezor. mid the meaning of that much-abused word N "Help." And so today at the beginning of this new year we would icit a tribute to God's help, whlih 'mm been over us In the year we have lived together, and whether we take the narrow view of the year wv have lived together In harmony or consider tin: mercies that lioil has dealt us, we must bo grateful to Ulni. The pastor's relation to the church .Hid the niembershlp In the past twelve months was llrst cousldeicil. lie spoke of loeolviug the call lo the church, the thoughts that arose, and "t" the advantages which presented ihemselves to his mind, on th ton mogatlon's side there was. of course. Mime ipiestlou as to his being able to till the place satisfactorily. He said; of course. 1 view the pastoral illa tions of the past year from my own standpoint. I inn not conscious of any niiiii or woman laying the weight of a feather In my way. In our olllclat re litlniis only the most pleasant things have oc lined. And may Clod's grace ui.iko niu mure worthy In th- year on which we are about to enter. Lot us .ii the second place notice tho advance ment In the church's spiritual wealth. We must not ni 'iisui e the spiritual ac tivity ol tho past year by our additions. We have admitted thirty to our church membership the past year, twenty-six by confession of fatth and four by let ter. We must not expect young con verts to ails1 above ihe activity of those who nit' already and have been I'T it long lime III tile kingdom of Cod. And so, dear brethren, while the lu :,..lherlng has not been law, wo are nut lo measure our condition by that means alone. There haa been n dothl "d Improvement in the heart feelings "f tiuv church." The pastor went on to tell of the wood work done by the Ladles' Aid so- lety of tho church, of how, unaided .Hid asking no lulp. the society lias gun.' ahead and that It had, the past v ar, ruined $titM. He said that the i i-eimurcr of the church had, on Satur day, forwartlotl a cheek paying the hi. teivnt on the church debt, and also re- hieing l ho principal of the deht soiu S.'OU. "These are the lesser things. On tiif spiritual side the Sunday school li.is been making a splendid record. While we liuv mil brought our thll 'Iicii lulu the church ami baptised lie-in by thf t weuiy-IIves, fifties and the hundreds, we have taught thorn tin- belter things of llf. the spiritual ami muiul truths. Iiuritig the past Mar the Voting People's society has been organized lllto the llaptlst Voitllg People's union." Urlully reviewing th: work of tho iriistee, h" declared lie would say more If they were not present, but would content himself by telling tin oiigrogntlon that the current expenses uf the church are all belnif paid, and i hat the. pastor's salary, which was the cause of crave doubts at tlrst. was mi longer a nuittei' tor nuleltud Ho .ild that there had existed only lho mom harmonious relations between tlm p.iHlor and the choli, and this condition h.nl been mi from the llrst.

AFTER CITY OFFICES. Candidates for City Clctk, Solicitor, Select Chairman, etc., Ate Hust ling for Support. ('onslderable speculation Is being In dulged In In olllelal circles as to who the ollloers of the various niuiMelp.it bullion will be. The c.ounclhi, poor boutd and bnard of health reorganize on the llrst Monday in April, while the reor ganization of the school board will not occur until the llrst of June. The light for th city clerkship, the most ardent struggle of all, goes mer rily on. .V. L. Moon, the Incumbent, and Fred Thomas are each exerting every effort to tie up a majority- nf voles, ten b.'lng needed to elect. Hoth sides claim the advantage, but. ns a matter of fact, the members still un pledged make the re.Milt decidedly tin eel tain, ami In fact, the llnnl may be the election of a "datk liorhe." Closely connected with the city clerk's light Is that for city solicitor. It. I). Stuart, who has held the olllce for the two years past Is a candidate for iv-ch'ctlou and ex-Mayor O'Neill Is also after the olllce. II. C lltitler's name has been mentioned but that gen. tleiuan has made no effort to secure the position. The outlook Is uncor. tain. Quit1 a light Is also being put up for the chairmanship of common coun cil. The Kepubllcans have settled on Hubert Whltlleld. the now member from th" Tlilid, while the Democrats are rallying around Alex. Kennedy, of the Fourth ward, who Is chairman of the present organization. in the upper branch the chairmanship will probably fall to either J. O. Davis or .!. V. Maunlon. Anthony F. Loftus. the piosctit deik ol the common council, whoso wnik has been highly satisfactory, will have, from the present outlook, no opponent. He would, at any rate, be a hard man lo bout, as he Is strongly entrenched In the good graces of the councllmen. It is said. also, that Sec- i clary Kvans ami Sanitary Olllcer .Mollltt will have uu opposition. On the poor board. 11 ('. Wlllluins will probably succeed I. A. Hlvell liuig as secretary and John McCain will bo made treasurer, to siucoed .1. F. Lynch. It Is Mr. .Morgan's tin n to b hulrmnn. but whether or not h" will take the olllce remains to bo soon. Tne lesult ot the reorganization of the school board Is a conipbtely unknown iii:intity. at this time. OBITUARY. Mis. Eliza B. Hathaway. Mrs. F.llza .1!.
