"THIs BEATS HELL.
Sam Jones, the Sacrilegist and
Sensationalist, on the Behead-
ing of John the Baptist.

Sam Jones, on his arrival at the
camp, says the Kentuckian- Citizen,
opened proceedings with as sensa-
tional sermon as he ever preach
ed. He said
s'John the Baptist was the right
sort of man. He decided and
chose for right and for God. They
did not like it and SO John found
himself in Jail. I expect some of
his congregation went down and
talked to him and said: "Well,
John, see they've got you in
Jail. Yes, here / am
Well, now that's too bad.
tell you, you we're little too hard
in something you SAID, and Herod
is hoppin' mad. He's a talking
about having your head
That's all right. Let him
take it, but he can't get my soul
and heart away from God
"Sure enough they did take
Johns head, but they couldn't
bulge him an inch from his duty.
Such a man in any community
nowadays weuld be worth his
weight in gold and diamonds
"Oid Daniel was another man
who chose. They got after him
and said: eff you don't step
prayln' to God and 60 to prayin' to
the king, he'll put you into the
lions den." Let them do what
they please, said Daniel, and down
he went on his knees, and the next
minute in he went. He knew that
if he did wrong he would go to
hell; if he did right he'd 20 to
heaven. God went down with him
into the den, and the FIRST thing
Daniel knew big lion went to
sleep and Daniel stretched himself
by his side, and pillowing his head
on the shaggy name of the brute,
said:
"THIs BEATS HELL ~
| choose to serve God forever and
I stand in no fear of kings -
"New, don't criticise me; pm

fault because there is an occasional
laugh. [ don't care what a man
dses while Pm skinning him; if he
laughs it Is all right. But if you
will hold while I skin, the price of
hides will go down, / can assure
you of that.
How can a Christian man or
woman sit eontentedly and listen
to such sacrileglous balderdash as
the above and make themselves
believe it sermon in the interest
and welfare of Christianity? There
is not congregation in this State
that would tolerate such language
from its local minister. 1t is moth
ing but profanity; yet people flock
to take it in as though it were their
only salvation, at the same time
knowing Sam Jones is abroad in
the interest of Sam Jones only.
The Christian religion, to a true
believer, is a sacred thing, and
a devout Christian does not care to
hear the name of God blasphemed.
Few, indeed after their curiosity is
once satisfied, ever care to listen
again to his haranges polluted with
sacrilege. Jones always draws a
crowd, but nineteen.twentieths of
it is there for inquisitiveness and
not for their spiritual welfare.

SEVERELY INJURED.
Hugh D. Mccorkle, or st. Louis,
Fails From q Bicycle While
Crossing the Street Rail-
way Track.

~~Ns ~ NASSA - A1hAoAAy VSO
William Thomas, who lives oppo
site Hardin College, saw mar
wandering aimlessly about ths
street near his house and, upon in,
vestigation, found that he was
severely cut and bruised about the
head and face. When found the
first thing the stranger wanted te
know was, his whereabouts ano
what had happened to him. His
clothes were dirty and out of shape
his arms and shoulders were badly
bruised a severe wound was foune
over the left eye, his chin was lale
open, and other cuts and bruises
made him look more like a drunken
tramp than young lawyer, as be
informed Mr.. Thomas, in a hal
dazed way. He was brought down
to the Windsor Hotel, where DR..
Murdeck dressed his wounds. Il
was there that Jesse F. Robertson
saw him, and recognized him as
Hugh D. McCorkle, fellow grad.
uate of the Law Department Of
Washington University, st. Louis,
McCorkle having graduated there
last June with high honors. The
wounded mans ideas were vague
and his mind wandered. He could
recall none of the incidents of the
twenty-four hours preceding. He
remembered staying a night al
Columbia, and seemed to have a
faint idea that he had been riding
a bicycle. He ate a hearty lunch
and was given a room at the hotel,
but did not sleep more than an
hour during the night, his arms
and shoulders giving him severe
pain. In the morning his memory
was somewhat clearer, and he
could remember all the events up
to noon Wednesday, the time inter.
vening being a total blank. He
thought, perhaps, he had been
overcome by the heat and fell from
his bicycle, but the fact that his
bicycle was found near the street
railway, near where it crosses
the Boulevard, seems to indicate
that he was riding in on the Celum
bia road after dark when he struck
the raised rail of the street railway
throwing HIM with the results
above noted. Mr.. McCorkle is /
bright young man and is credited
when at himself, with a remarka
bly, good memory. His parents re
side in Saline county, whence b.
came to this city on a bicycle, fol
mere pleasure, where he intendee
to take train to his home in St
Louis. He is not seriously in
jured, and will be detained her.
until he fully RECEIVERS his menta
faculties.
Those who have examined intt
the matter, say the evidences all g
to show that McCorkle travelled a
least fifteen miles in an uncon
scious condition. They say it il
quite conclus1vely shown that i
was not the last fall which injured
him, from the fact that his whee
is bespattered with blood which
dropped from his face. TIL,
last thing Mr.. McCorkle Cal
remember was having dranl
a large quantity of cold waite
while very warm, about 1:3O or
O'Clock Wednesday afternoon, and i
is supposed it must have beel
about that time that he receive,
his injuries. Friends in St. Louis
who read of the accident in the st
Louis morning papers, have sent
humber of kilograms to Mayo
Bassford inquiring after younl
McCorkle.
