There were about 40 penitents at the altar and 15 conversions. One close observer remarked to-day that there was weeping from the pulpit to the doors, and that when the serious ones were asked if they were ready to make a start they left the pews and went forward at once without further urging. The young people's meeting was also very largely attended. The young converts are working industriously, feeling that soon the revival will come to a close, and they are anxious to have their friends on the right side. At the jubilee service at Stapp's chapel on Sunday afternoon 15 converts united with the church on probation.

1 Military Election. To-morrow an important meeting of the officers of the Fifth Regiment, I. N. will be held at Springfield to choose a Lieut. Colonel in place of Capt.

O'Neill, resigned. Decatur will be well represented at this meeting. It is predicted that Major Durfee will be promoted by vote to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, and that Captain Culver, of Taylorville, will be boosted to the rank of Major of the gallant Fifth. That is Decahir's ticket. Many of the leading artists of the profession appear in the olio programme.

The company is highly recommended by the press. Admission, 35,50 and 75 cents. IT is now stated that a new warrant will be sworn out for the arrest of Thos. Molnerney, the alleged seducer of Lizzie Holl, and that he will stand a preliminary examination before Decatur justice. The accused is in custody.

He was taken before Judge Smith on Monday on a writ of habeas corpus ordered issued by Master in Chancery Brown, but as only the prosecuting witnesses went to Champaign with Sheriff Foster and the prisoner, the hearing was not had. It is expected that Mclnerney will put a new phase on the case at the proposed examination. Tuttle--Kepley.

His sermon was addressed to young converts, a large number of whom listened with eager attention to what he The sermon was a description of the history and progress of a young convert up to the altitude of steadfastness and largest usefulness, and was full wisdom and practical benefit.

The report will be considered by the council at its April meeting: DECATUR, April 30,1883. To Committee on Water Works--Gents: We, tho committee, having boon chosen to examine the Clapp Jones pump, now in use at the water works, would respectfully make the following report, viz: That an eccentric and mechanism similar to that on the main valve be used instead of that now used to operate tho cut off valve. also recommend that a hand wheel and pointer be placed on the valve stem to indicate tho chanaes made in setting the valves.

Crops in Paet Years. The Secretary of the Illinois State Board of Agriculture will soon publish a report of special interest to business men and farmers, In the report the wheat product is treated for a period of 23 years, (since i860), there being simply a note added in reference to the condition of the present or growing crop of winter wheat. It is shown that, in the period named, after deducting the amount consumed in the State, and the amount required for geed, there have been produced 408,075,531 bushels for exportation, valued at 8427,628,895. The yield last year was 52,323,261 bushels, valued at The yield of 1880,56,508,309 bushels, alone exceeded this figure; but the value of the crop of 1867, which was 855,000,000, was the largest for any year in the history of the State. It will probably be curious information to the country in it is true, that in the 23 years last past, beginning with 1860, there have been 10 years in which corn in Illinois has been raised at a loss, the net profit per acre for the whole period being only 81.13.

W. MIMEB, Sec. The Christian Evangelist. Prof. W.

G. Black, the evangelist, arrived in the city this forenoon from Clinton, and will deliver another sermon at the Christian church this afternoon. Prof. Black is described as a remarkable man, with a history. He graduated at Harvard; was for many years professorof languages in Butler university and pastor of the Disciple church in Indianapolis; has been pastor in Cincinnati, and has evangelized in many parts of the United States, and traveled extensively in Europe.

Prof. Black is a cousin of Pennsylvania's great classic scholar, jurist and statesman, Jerre Black, and in his studied, precise and elegant diction resembles that distinguished gentleman. He is a consummate linguist, and as he reads his scriptural lessons, pausing to trace every significant word though the ancient languages, imparting to it the nice and necessary shades of meaning so rarely heard, he affords a feast to the scholar. His revival at Clinton is reported very successful. No Matter What Happens You may rest assured that you are safe in being speedily cured by Thomas' Ec lectric Oil in all cases of rheumatism, Mrs.
