This is the evening for opening the bids for the installation of a ground water system and it is expected that fact will draw quite a number of interested citizens' to the council chamber.

It is understood that a couple of bids ihave already been filed with the city clerk, but thr Mr. Wardall has not yet submitted his fcid. There is a feeling that he may either consider that he bas a bid before the council the one submitted a couple of weeks ago or that he may, have decided that he would not foci with the proposition here any longer. When he last appeared before the council, he said that he did not care very much v. hether or not his proposition was accented, as he had other propositions Vcat were awaiting him, notably a railroad job.

In addition to opening the water bklo, there will possibly be a bond ordinance and a construction ordinance for consideration, in addition to tne regalar routine of work. It is not piobable that anything of great magnitude will be sprung, as the council-men are disposed to let things drift along as easily as possible for the remainder of their terms. The school board will also meet in regular session tonigiht. There is some important business to come up, including the discussion and decision of matters pertaining to commencement week. INSTITUTE AT STATE NORMAL.

Special Corps of Teachers to Emporia from New York. Emporia, Feb. 21. Announcement made at the State Normal today of certain new features of this year's summer school. For some time plans have under way for a spe cial institute and conference of su- ipsrintendents, high school principals and instructors who are engaged in the work of normal training in.

high schools and academies, and for those preparing for this phase of teaching. work. It has now been decided that this institute will 'be held from July 12 to 22, inclusive. President 'Mill of the normal, who is new in New York City, is looking for a special corps of instructors in each of the subjects prescribed by the state ifor normal training courses, and already has engaged two or three men of iarge calibre, whose names will be announced shortly, wihen the entire corps has been secured." There will be some specialist of country-wide reputation here for daily lectures and class room discussions in each of the subjects of fsychology, Methods and management, Language, Reading, Geography and Arithmetic. The board of regents has been gen erous in their support of these plans, and sufficient funds have been provided to employ, a special faculty, selected ifrcm all over the country with especial reference to their experience, training and ability to meet our pres ent Kansas conditions.

To each of the men whom Presi dent Hill is seeing in New York, Bos ton and Chicago, and whose experience and ability seems stiff icient, he is putting forth the problem of how 'best to organize the 'work in each subject to secure the best results for the high school graduate who is going out into the country to teach ihis first school. Eventually, the ones who seem best able to cope: with, the rural Admission 5 cents and 10 cents. Your Patronage Appreciated. The Brown Supply Company LUMBER, HARDWARE, IFJPLEEiEHTS COFFEYVILLE, KANSAS wield the. Damascus steel; ibut against the invisible principalities of the heart, the rulers of a darkened and an unenlightned consciousness, and wickedness which has usurped the throne of man's being.

There is a famous picture which represents the human soul in the hour of conflict. The invisible world has 'been' made visible by. the skill of the artist. There around the tried and anxious 'men are the embassies of the powers of evil, dim etheral forms lur-idily showing out on every side. There is the tempting offer of a crd-wn over iis head, but in each braided bar of gold in the diadem is hirking a fiend.

Within the1 goblet of -pleasure, a ven-onous serpent is coiled. The etheral tforms of demons are whispering foul thoughts in his ear. Beneath the couch of gauzy silk upon which his companions are reclining are noticeable lurid fires. A beautiful angel has drawn near but a skeleton of death can be traced beneath the white robes he has stolen. It is said that when" the canvas was first displayed, the noisy critics gathered about it but one looking, turned aside and wept.

He knew what' it meant. In our age when moral judgment is being developed as never before and conscience is becoming enlivened, we are coming more and to the conviction of the reality of the unseen powers from whose hostility we are in the most serious danger of having the 'higher sensibilities of our nature put to naught and crushed beneath a terrible tyranny. Evil thoughts are alien oour higher convictions and our noble sympathies and they invade the sanctuary of our most' holy intentions. In this holy war we cannot hope for victory if we rely on our own strength, we imust have the aid of the Almighty God. He is the power that Avill sustainN and give you the' everlasting The evening service was largely the scripture lesson being taken from Psalm The duet by Mrs.

Lynde and Mr. Joseph Brown was highly appreciated. The solo by Mr. Brown" was beautiful. The sermon by Rev.

Olinger was very interesting, the text being taken from Psalm 119:59: "I thought on my ways and turned my feet unto my testimonies." A Thinker is always a very interesting person. There are, -two kinds of thinkers. One may, be a mere dreamer; he has his thoughts but it does nothing for him. Here is a thinker whose thinking did something for him. It turned him completely around and set him upon a new road Man's ways, and God's testimonies meet in the issues of life and death.

This thinker brings his thoguht tc bear upon the chief business of life of making his ways harmonize with the testimonies of God. This thinker when he discovered that he was wrong promptly turned his steps" to the right. He was honest with himself to his God who discovers that he is wrong will immediately turn his feet toward the right. Most people do Tots of religious thinking but here we' arc mostly dreamers. Many people expect to Hoat to heaven on a bubble of pious sentiment, but thinking without turning to God will never save you.

Rev. Olinger deserves much praise in the discoursing of both seruons. Christian Church. Sunday at the Christian church there were? good audiences in attendance at both services. The morning eermon on the subject, "The Prayer That Was Not Answered," 'based upon the" of the rich' inan and Lazarus.

OKLAHOMA he soon tired of that kind of life and started out to make his own way, and finally stopped in North Dakota.

Here he was bitten by a rattlesnake on the leg and the wound has never healed properly. He left Dakota and near Joplin he was shot at by a brakeman on a freight train on which be was making his way, and fell off the train injuring the same leg on which he was bitten by the snake. He came on to Joplin with much difficulty, and as he was limping up the street yesterday a druggist asked him what was the matter and the boy showed him the leg, which was swollen almost to twice its natural size. After giving' the boy the best treatment possible the druggist sent him to the Salvation army at this city and ha is now in the hospital under the care of physicians. He is in a critical condition.

The boy is neatly dressed. He will be kept in the hospital and given the best of attention. PILLOW AS A BANK. New York Judge Decides That This is "Safe Place." Ne'w York, Feb. 21.

FOUND PLENTY OF BOOZE County and Local Officers Made Sat- udray Night Raid. Another raid for booze and booza sellers was made here Saturday night by county and local officers and their efforts were not in vain, for they found the" forbidden spirits in plentiful quantities and it is also quite probable that they found the sellers.

The total cost of the in salaries has been about It was- estimated that the old commission could have been dispensed eight or tea years ago without impairing the water supply, and that a saving of something like $2,000,000 could have been r' RESULT OF "WET" VICTORY. Joplin Prohibition Worker' Insane; Takes Life of Wife. Feb. 21.

Despondency over the victory of the "wet" forces in the local option election held here re cently affected the mind of J. F. Butler, and he cut his wife's throat with a razor and then severed his jugular vein. The woman cannot live. During the local option which was the -warmest ever held in this section of -the state, Butler worked incessantly for the "dry" cause.

He joined forces with the workers who brought "Billy" Sunday here to start the fight. Later he worked at the polls. He began to show signs of mental aberration soon after the return came in from the polls on January 27 Joplin is the only "wet" spot in the country at present. "How do you like that whisky, Pat?"
