K. T. The commandery has neglected

Lawyer Jones and Constable Grant
became involved in dispute as to the
merits of the case. Grant pulled his
revolver and pointed at Brother Jones
who beata hasty retreat, and lodging
behind the Junge's bench, he crawled
under Justice Lyons chair, overturning
his Honor. Constable Grant followed
with drawn revolver, when Attorney

caught the revolver, placed his finger
behind the trigger so that it could not
be fired. Jones finally crawled out
from his hiding place, and fled from
the court room. Bowman's finger was
badly mashed during the struggle.

for contempt of court. 1t was a very
unfortunated occurrence as both persons
are prominent citizens.

unload his burden of sin. Rev, Reed
said, "The people have too many idols.

members to pui the secret societies
before the church. 1t is not right, and
they cannot get to heaven unless they
make all subservient to tile Church of
/ Christ" Mrs. Lettie Trent, the noted
elocutionist being present, was asked to
giye.a recitation. She consented, and
favored the preachers with, The Devil
