In the apostolic days. In each, the humanitarian aspect is fundamental, the needs of man, both physical and moral. The Christian church has given Sunday to the world, as the Jewish church gave the idea, of one day's rest In seven to the Christian church. Hence the church has a right to speak as to the Intent and purpose of Sunday.

"Our men found the body," ' 'said Mayor Patton last nlg-ht. "We haven't any life-saving equipment or any morg-ue, so we towed it back about 100 feet across the line and railed thHegewlsch police. They took charge of the body and the inquest will be held Monday." John Roman yck, 80 years old, until recently employed . by the Western Steel Car and Foundry Company, was the man whose body was found. "When a man gets past , CO years old," ran a note found in a pocket of his clothing,. "he is not wanted In this world any more. I have no, means of supporting my wife and family In the old country, so I'll quit." The body was taken to the undertaking rooms of V. Korthause at 13311 Brandon avenue.

Some have told me they had to here or lose business. Others again have told me there Is no such necessity. The fact is, in all such cases we have not enough of Sunday principle and too much commercial aeal. Real estate junkets are arranged for, and sales made, with all the excitement and confusion of a market day, though contracts, I am told, are not dated on Sunday, else were they illegal.

I have seen men coming and going, have seen them carrying their palls to and from the liquor shop without any attempt at concealment. I have seen children, in their early teens, going to the saloonat with the pall, and on several occasions have watched the crowd within through side doors kept wide open, with a policeman within twentyfive feet. I have seen policemen leaning over the bars, drinking, on Sunday afternoon, and the door wide open at that "Theaters and amusement halls run full blast on Sunday. You say, so they do elsewhere.

where the fundamental idea was the cessation of industrial and commercial activity, in order to rest and true upbuilding of the people. To argue that the shows, . so-called, are moral is to beggar the question. They are purely held for the profit of the management and not for the good they may do the people. .If the latter, then make all Sunday performances free, and see how long they will stay open.

Two new buildings will be erected for the manufacture of the Ice, the contract for one. which Is to to be of brick, is to be let this week, plans now being under way. The contract for the machinery was let on Saturday, night to the Henry Voght Company of Louisville. Ky.

The capacity of the ice plant will be from twenty-five to thirty tons per day. and is guaranteed to be in full operation by March- 1, but the company will , begin delivering Ice within ten. days to butchers and saloons which

supply will be shipped in uptil the local plant is completed. The new concern has already signed up contracts with all the leading business houses and a number of private families for ice for the coming year, and Mr. Hellwig, president of the concern, said last night "By. the way we are signing up contracts it doesn't look as though the local plant would .be any too -large.

However, a little) thing like that did not prevent Stanley from marrying Nellie, his second wife. But Stanley tired of Nellie as he had of Lizzie and soon left her and started to lay his plans for a third wedding. He over-reached himself however when he wrote to wife No. 1 demanding $1,000 on pain of death, if she failed to comply with his demand. He showed wife No. 2, according to the latter, the revolver and bullets he intended to use in making away with the first Mrs. ' Bonajko, In case she refused to come across. The letter, combined with the knowledge that Bonajko proposed

marrying a third wife, had the effect of bringing wives 1 and 2 together, and together they appeared before Judge Lewis and swore out the warrant which resulted in the arrest.
