Just what the plot of this story will be, whom its characters will bo jinttorned after and where the Bccnca will be laid, Colonel Hofer Is not say ing. "1 have been In tlio newspaper bus iness for 35 yours aiid think 1 should bo titled to write a novel that Is In teresting nnd entertaining and that will sell.

"I am writing this novel to mnko tamo money. Thnt is the secret of the M'holo thing. There Is big mon ey in n good seller, nnd perhaps It might bo dramatized, nnd there lu ov en more money In thnt.

"This Is n novel wny to save to wnrd n vncntlon, a trip, or even n house nnd lot. It is worth trying by any ono who hns never saved In tho pnst, and Is n picturesque hint to the rising generation."

Every now and then evidently to hold their Jobs they start some fool 'btory of dUeovery of u secret plot to 'kill their charge. So far as safe guarding the president in concerned, tt Is tho meivkt slmin, since any one bent upon taking his life could do so by shooting or throwing a bomb from a m.'1'oikI story window. And, If they desired, they could easily shoot down tho t-ecret bervlce men nlso. These precautious did not at nil protect Mc Klnley or Gnrlleld. The prnetlce of biirroundlng the president with sec ret bervice men Is not only unnmert enn, but smacks of tho vogue that hedges about a king In those coun tries where the royal ruler has ron ton to suspect attack, but America hub few men of tho type thnt seek the llfo of a president. The mnn freest from all the tliimmery of mili tary and police guards wns Rooso elt, nnd he walked or rode where ho plenbod without tho slightest dan ger, apparently, as no attack was at tempted upon him during the seven yeaib he held the olllce. One would Imagine from the precautious taken by tho superservlceablo detectives that about boventy-flvo of every ono hundred American citizens were nnar chltts, whoso pockets bulged with bombs. It 1 a ridiculous custom which cannot be too boon abolished." C.ltl OF THANKS.

Dut to say theso City Engineer Gldley thnt ho would words, 'Ye must be born ngaln,' to not oppose It any longer. Mr. aid- ley has arranged so that a water tight bulkhead can bo thrown up around any property where the own ers do not want it filled. It was llrst planned to Improve tlio street as far west ns Seventh but Mr. Gldley snld thnt tlio block between Sixth and Seventh would be expensive work nnd would not benefit nnyono nt present nnd he believed that it would be best to defer that until later. The council agreed with this view. The greatest fill will bo on Market J avenue in front of E. 0. Flnnogan's property where It will be nbout eight- leen feet. The grades fixed arc more - ly sufficient to coincide with tho grades of streets on each side. Owing to tho owners of North Front street property having caused, a needless expense In bulkhcadlng by falling to promptly agree to havo their property filled ns well ns tho cost of It. This wilt bo done when tho street Is Improved. New Garbage Dump. Councilman Ferguson Inst night ro nowed his camplalut against tho pro sent city garbage dump In Ferndale. Ho said It was n menace to tho health of thnt section, declaring thnt W. H. Lingo did not even cover over tho de caying refuse with dirt. Henry Sengs tncken who lenses the garbage dump ground to the ci'y said that It wns the best placo now availablo and that It molested less people there than it would In any other accessible loca tion. Mr. Ferguson did not ngreo with him.

Ho said that during the Inst rain, a lot of this refuse was washed down to the corner of Second and Market, stopped up tho cntoh bnslu nnd flooded the basement of his building.

No one who attended tlio taberna cle service could possibly be in doubt as to the uy of eternal life after lis tening to the very able discourse da rn ered last night by Rev. H. I. Hut ledge, pastor of the Methodist church. The text used was: "Except a Man ,uur',r Rev. Kutlcdge said In part: "The man to whom Jesus mndo the remark which contains the words of my text wns Nicodeinus, a man of high stand ing In his own time and one of the high ofllclnls among the Jews. If Je sus had said to Daraabns, the robber, I ..... ; these words, "Vo must bo born surprised. if they hnd been spoken to Mary Mng Mcodemus, a man of high standing, Is different. Surely, If Nlcadcmus needed these words, cvoryono docs today. "What Is meant? Jesus meant that we must liavo n spiritual birth. In order tn see tlio kingdom of God, wo must bo born ngaln. The mnn who snld lie wns born In Manchester and nt Liverpool, wns naked what ho , meant nnd replied: "What nrt thou' a master In Israel nnd knowest not ' these things?" It In Just as Jesus said, 'Ye must bo born ngnln.' " Mr. Hutlcdgo pointed out during his sermon thnt the New Hlrtli wnn neither church momborshln. bnntlsm or pnrtnklng of tho Lord'H Supper, ' It was not necessarily obeying tho commandments of God. "These," Bald the minister, "Can nil bo kept nnd yet there Is something lacking In the life. Neither can wo cling to tho external ordinances of the church ' nnd expect new llfo from them. "The new birth Is n now life. This llfo must hnvc n beginning. No llfo l Is without beginning. Tho regenor ntlon which Is from nbovo Is not re formation of the old life but n new life from God. Wo must not bo stnrtlcd If It Is mysterious. All life In Itself Is mysterious. Jesus told NIcodemus It wns like tho wind, nnd we nro not to bo surprised at not be ing ablo to know nil nbout It now." Mr. Rutlcdgo closed by giving somo evidences of tho nev birth. Theso he said were the answering of prayer, tho desire to witness for God nnd tho frutts of tho spirit. Ho snld wo might know our new life by tho gcnulucncpR of the fruit. Not llko tho artificial fruit which could bo painted and tied upon the tree, this wns genuine.
