Nio-c who witnessed the bibli cal drama last evening at the Eagle theater -au practically the 5th chapter o Daniel dramatize. upon canvas as the little moving picture 1 1 1 111 gave to its patron the true storv ,,f the "Fall I'.abv ! 'ii " The beaut ii'ul cit v mat was limit to Mich -nperli aili-iic c. .inplclcncs and one that was loitilicd beyond any city oi Us 111111' by cbnchadncar and ruled over b his son, was sur rounded by the Mcdcs and Per sians and their allied armies un der Gyrus the Great .Soldier. The Mcdcs and Persians had for year in the past assaulted in fierce but desultory battle, the walls of the city of Pabv Ion and their oiil hope of -victory was by cutting ol) all supplies. lleNhazer. pou ci ml and serene felt sate within her walls. Standing m the otirt balcony if In- palace congratulated iked , .lit w ith security oci ramparts. i lie had often himself as ,, gnat pride and the her high ben the great ban.pict hall ol his palace became a -ceiic ot midnight revelry vv hen fair wo mm danced before the king -and the treasure rooms ,,f iu. teinple gave up their st,,res of wine that the hour of revelry and ebauch 1.111 supreme. Just outside the gic.il walls o ihe city the enemy were workiiiL; with delei 111 1 1 1 .1 1 101 1 and rexeiiije. and while the revel cis inside were contenting them selves in deceitful gladness. G ins, strioni;, constant anil inven live had devised a number (if channels and trenches sufficient to draw the Ljreat river h'tiphrates lroin its regular course through the cil v and left Us , i v river-bed a highroad of entry beneath the impregnable walls. The story is beautifully told in the book of Daniel where P.elsiaer the King made a great feast j,,r thou sands his buds and command ed, while. he drank that the gold en and silver vessels which his father, 'ebuchadnc7ar had removed from th temple in Feru salcm be brought out that he, his wives and concubines might drink therefrom While drinking the wine the gay revelers prais(( (he gods ol gold, silver, brass, iron wood and stone. At the same hour came forth the fingers of a man's hand and wrote against the wall of the King's palace. In this Ivuir of fear and anguish Daniel was brought before the King and asked to interpret the sign said : 'This is the writing that was writ ten ; "Mene. Mene Tekel I'pharsin which means Thou art weighed hi the balance and art found want inir " ( bi that same fateful nitrl lit lielshazer the King of the Ghal deaiis was ruthlessly slain and Gy rus the Median ascended to his throne. The picture aside from its great moral beautifully protrays the scene of the revelers, the great river gate at night, and the burn ing of the city. The Guilford Council of Junior Order I'. A. M.

It provides for the dec tion of the mayor at large and lor I vv o couucihiien from each of the four wards. I he city government is divided into eight departments, over each of which .me of the 11 uincibiien presides In view of the fact that thecitv was too small ui pav its coininis sinners it was deemed wise to have eight men as this would re duce the work to a minimum, but the plan is even more successful where the men are paid and there is a smaller number. Sums of the results of the plan have been a new system of book keeping and auditing acc units and the employment of an expert ac coiintant; the passage of a milk and meat ordinance requiring all milk and meat to be inspected; the handling of police regulations on a business-like basis ; .requiring monthly balance sheets from the tinting department; monthly balance sheets from the city au ditor; and one of the greatest re- (Continued on Page four.)
