Pinkerton read a paper on It Will be Hurried Up-The Road to be Running by Electric'ty Within Thirty Days. The Citizens' Electric Street R'y Co. has purchased a lot 40x100 feet in dimensions on the May corner, nearly opposite the present car stables. This lot at the comer of liast North and Mill streets is to be used as the site for trie company's new power house. The noitb.

wall will be twenty feet south of the sidewalk. The house will be 40x100 feet in dimen- Woik will begin this morning, and Henry Lunn, who has charge of the brickwork, will push the work foiward with all possible dispatch. It is expected that the house will be done and ready for occupancy within fifteen days. The generators are to be delivered within thirty days. Seven trucks, all propeily equipped with motors for use under the present cars airive at the same time.

A Iso one new car, equipped electrically. This will give the company eight motor cars to begin with. The pole gang is hard at work on West Main street, starting from Oakland Park yesterday morning straight down West Main street. Only ordinary poles such as are the telegraph and telephone companies, will be used on all streets excepting on Lincoln square where the interlacing of wires is so great that it was thought best to avoid all possible danger of interference by the use of iion posta with arms to carry the wire. Fourteen such posts will be used on Lincoln square.

It is thought that it will be necessary to put only a few if any additional poles on Water street. An arrangement has been made with the gas company for the use of their electric light line poles, and the use of the telephone poles is possible. The electric curient for the street railway company is carried along the central copper wire-which is caiefully insulated from the ii on cables which support it. There is no danger of communicating the curient to the telephones in and recent court decisions in this way, Ohio have ostublished that an electric street railway may use telephone poles en loute and that the stieet railway company can not be compelled by law toiemove its wires. The election of many poles may thus be avoided, and if the Citizens' company should use the telephone poles much of the objection of unsightlmess would be removed.

Although the powei is greater than would really be required, it may be that a decision to buy this larger engine will be made to-day. If it is bought an additional generator may be put in to furnish power for stationary electric motors in different parts of the city. The company is determined to pusn things forward with all possible dispatch and set to running by electric power as soon as maybe. The officers are sure that the line will be in lunning order The Murder Trial at Sullivan.

From Sunday's Daily Frank Wkcasei is on trial at Sullivan charged with the murder of John Kline. Kline was murdered on a farm about two miles southwest of Hammond, on Thursday morning, May 18, 1888. The newspaper accounts published at the time that Wacaser and Kline were on bad terms, that Wacaser had forbidden Kline ever to set foot on his farm, that they met near the line dividing Wacasei's farm from that of Kline's Bryan, that Wacaser andKhne quarrelled, that the former knocked the latter down and that while he lay on the ground Wacaser stabbed him to the heart, that Kline's sitter ran to the wounded man and heard him say "I'm dyme; Frank Waeaser has stabbed me." Wacaser surrendered himself to the sheriff at Sulli The evidence before the coronet's jury was such that "Wacaser was held for murder. The case has been occupying the attention of the Moultrie county circuit court for seveial days. It has been very difficult to procure a jury, but that was finally accomplished by Friday The calling of witnesses for the prosecution began.

The first witness was George Cunningham, a farmei's boy who had been in the employ of the Waeaser family before the murder and since. He was with Wauaser and Babb (who has been indicted with Wacaser for the killing) when Wacaser and Kline met. Cunningham did not remember what they said, He saw Kline make a motion with his hand up and down, looked away for a while and when he looked again Kline had picked up a board and was trying to strike Wacaser with it. The latter kept out of Kline's way, and after driving twenty-five yards the witness saw Kline fall. Witness was sent on an errand and when he returned he saw Kline lying in the field with some women about him.

"Wacaser then went to the house of his father-in-law and told him that he had killed John Kline and wanted to go to Sullivan. The memory of the witness as to what was said by Wacaser and Kline was a blank. Other witnesses on Friday wete Misses Belle Smith and Eva Temple. One testified that before the murder Wacaser had exhibited knife and said that he would "do Kline up." The other said that she had seen the ith the new power June. by the middle of Objective Mission i devotions weic led by The Mis.

The subjects discussed Thursday wern concerning the Pentateuch and the natural, Mosaic and evangelical doctrine regarding matrimony. Local Patentees. John Kaylor has been granted a patent knife with which the killing was done and knew that Wacaser often earned revolver.

The coiner testified as to the inquest and its finding. On Satuulay five witnesses weie examined. Di. W. A Smith testified to tho post-mortem ovimimition and to tht character of the wcund given Kline.

The knife pcnehated the left lobe of the lung and the heait, and caused death. Othci witnesses lecoguued tho clothicg tha had been worn by Kline and located th plate of the quarrel. Adam Wacaser, father of the accused is veiy wealthy, owning oue thousanc acres of land. He is able to provide stioiog defense for his son and that he doing so will be seen by the fact that he has employed M. Smysei, Judgi Meeker and Hon.

Prestley Closes His Pasta rat of the First Presbyterian Church. Rev. W. H. Prestley preached farewell sermon at the Presbyteria church on Sunday morning.

There wa THE ORDINANCE PASSED. he Citizens' Company Finally Cet the Desired Privilege of Using Motors. From Saturday's Dally. The called meeting of the council yes- erday morning was attended by all mem- ers. The object of the meeting was the onsideration of the ordinance granting le Citizens' company the right to use otors, erect poles and string; wire on leir right of way.

The call for the leeting was signed by Aldermen Finn, hoemaker and Moran. The Central Union Telephone company resented a communication to the council, rotesting that the proposed use of electric lotors by the Citizens' company would iterfere with the seivice and ause unnecessary danger to lite and prop- The communication set forth that he danger might be averted by the use Jthe metallic power circuit and a double rolley. A deposition by Thomas D. ockwood, an electric engineer of Boson, accompanied the communication, he deposition set foitn the interference aused to telephones by the use single on electric roads. There was no ction on the mutter.

The ordinance introduced at the mcet- ng Tuesday night was then taken up nd read by the clerk. Alderman Simpson again announced bat he desired to throw no obstacle in lie way of the company, but he offered he same objection held when the ordi- auce was first introduced, namely: That le did not believe the ordinance could je legally acted upon because the com- iany was a new one and the usual ten days' notice had not been given, neither the consent of the majority of prop- rty owners along the line been secured. Alderman Finn arose to explain the igh't of the company and Alderman ScanlSn said he did not desire to waste plying the city attorney with ques- City Attorney McDonald gave as his opinion that property owners could say whether or not street railways should be aid down, but had no control over the motive power. It is the right of ttie louncil to say what power shall be used. 3e assured the council that there coulc no clanger to the city of litigation by passage of the ordinance.

On motion of Alderman Harwood the oidmancewasthen placed upon its ige. The ordinance was then read section by section and several amendments wei oilered. One was by Alderman Scanlan requiring the company to have the start ing and teimmal points painted on th cars. Anothei was oftered by Alderman Giaham, fixing the faie at five cents ove the entire line. On the adoption of each sec tion Alderman Simpson votedin the affiirn ative only when the section was reache' requiring the company to pay for th publication of the oidinance.

On th tintil vote of adopting as a whole all th membeis voted aye except Aldermai Simpson who voted in the negative. The council then adjourned. The Assault on Joe Hoffmeister. Joe Hoffmeister, who was assaulted Tuesday evening, while preventing a ma from beating a helpless woman, is sti confined to his room at the Smock hous and is in a serious condition. He was dealt a hard blow below the left eye wit some sharp instrument which penetrated to the cheek bone.

The wound of itself is not serious but erysipelas has set in and the face and eye are badly swollen, the eye being entirely closed and pufied fat for an inch. Hoflmeister says he gave the man no cause for assaulting him. He merely defended the woman who was being beaten. He and a man named Barrett had been sitting on the poich of the Smock house and heard the man and woman passing down the opposite side of the street, and the man abusing the woman. As they turned the corner at Hatfield's mill the woman was heard to cry for help.

The two men started to her assistance. They found her lying on the giound and the man kneeling upon her breast and striking her in the face. Hofi- Kabrick Pleads Guiliy.l The church trial of J. H. Kabrick on the charge of immoral conduct, prefeired by Thomas Peniwell, was held Monday morning at Janes' Chapel.

There were about thirty persons present. The facts in the case and the trouble led to he charges are already well known, here was a clash of authority between Ir. Kabrick and Mr. Peniwell as to who liould have possession of the keys to the burch after the janitor had been dismissed and this led to an assault on Penwell by Kabrick at the door of the tiureh. Rev.

M. D. Hawes, presiding Ider, selected Rev. James Toxworthy, of 'ana, to preside at the trial and J. W.

anner, of Decatur, acted as secretary. C. Corley, assisted by M. H. Ewers, Camargo, represented the prosecution nd Rev.

Sampson Shinn, of Blooming- on, was present to look after the intcr- sts of the defendant. W. J. Huff, Geo. jeby, Henry Cain, George Smith, W.

J. J. C. Beatty and John Stickle selected as a a committee to hear the vidence. Mr.

Kabrick entered a plea of uilty to the charges and the committee eturned a veidict as follows "We, the ommittce, find the defendant guilty on is own admission." This settles the mater and dissolves Kabnck's relations as a member of the Chapel. "Woman' be fair, we must adoie thee; Smile, and a world is weak before thee' 1 But how can a woman smile when she suffering untold misery from complaints rom which we men are exempt?

Bev. Prestley has been pastor of the church foi twelve yeais and has many warm friends and admirers, not alone confined to his congregation for he is beloved in this city by all. who know him. The fact that he was to bid adieu to his flock made many hearts in the congregation sad. He chose for his text Bov.

In taking charge of the field November 1st, 1870, there we 226 names found enrolled. This number has steadily increased till the membership today numbers 405. In these twelve and a half yiars 471 members have been added to the church, an average of 38 each year.

The benevolent work of the church for the same time foots up as follows. For Missions, Home and Foreign, over for other benevolent objects, over $4,000: for congregational purposes, nearly a grand total of nearly $64,000. Two Ladies' Missionary Societies have been formed; a Young People's Endeavor Society has been organized; two mission Sunday schools nave been organized, one of which formerly was the nucleus of Sargent Chapel, and prospering under the fostering care of the First M.

No debt rests on the church to-day for current expenses. It has been my aim and endeavor all these years, not preach myself, but Christ Jesus, the Saviour of sinners.

To those who have tried to injure me personally, they lave my forgiveness and prayers that they may be for given.
