defense announced that they expected 10 show
that some OF the prisoners were not present at
the lynching. while others were merely guards
conveying the victim to the authorities IN Mis-
sissippi and that they were overpowercd by
armed unknown men, who took the prisoner
from them by threats and force. Twenty wit
nesses have been examined thus far and their
evidence is of a corroboratiye nature going 10
show that all of the accused except those who
claimed to be acting guards were at other
places when the lynching occurred.
The state il short in its scross-examinationa and
evidently relies more upon its direct testimony
than upon q hope of breaking down the cvi-
dence Of the defense. All evidence VIII be I'm
today.
Quite a stir was created in the court when
Judge W. L. Clark Of counsel for defense
moved that the court forbid the press repre-
the evidence until the case Is concluded The
court granted the motion
After adjournment the newspaper reporters
argued the question and prevailed upon Judge
Porter to rescind the order rather than forcs
them to make q test case Of the matter. judge
Clark says he viii call the attention OF the legs-
lature to the matter and endeavor 20 have \
law passed empowering judge to forbid publ.
cation in such cases and prevent reporsss
from disobeying such order.

This 10 the Period of the Approach Of the
Nativity of Christ.

To-day Is Advent Sunday, so called for
being the beginning Of the advent season.
This season in the church calendar Is
the period Of the approach Of the nativity
of our Savior
In the Greek Church this period lasts
from St. Martins Day. November llth'
TO Christmas Day.
In the other churches ii lasts from the
Sunday before st. Andrews Day, Novem-
Der Both, till Christmas.
The observance of the period dates from
the fourth century, and since the sixth
century it has been recognized as the be-
ginning Of the church year
There are four Sundays in the advent
season, for which special Scripture les
sons are prescribed. and these are Sc
fected with reference and bearing 10 the
second coming Of Christ. as Judge. as
well as to his first coming. as Savior.
Advent has sometimes been called the
Lesser Lent, and at one time was OBJ
served almost as strictly as the season
of Lent.
The rule is now relaxed, and I'm the
Church OF England fasting is confined
TO the week in which Ember Day
December 18th occurs.
The term second advent is now gen
orally used TO denote our Lords appear
ing the second time, so often spoken OF
in the New Testament.
Many opinions have been held as to the
time and manAer of such an event.
In the Apostolic churches il was COM
monty regarded as imminent. This,
though, was not the opinion Of the Apos-
tie St. Paul for he says in II Thess.. ii,
"a: Let 10 mail deceive you by any
means. for that day shall not come ex-
cept there come a falling away first. and
that man Of sin be revealed, the son of
rendition; who opposeth and eXalteth
himself above all that is called God. or
that is worshipped; so that he as God
stitch in the temple of God, showing him
self that he is Cod"
The collects. epistles and Gospels OF
the Church during the period all bring
TO mind the second coming of the Savior,
and more frequent services are held than
usual.
The people are also admonished and ex-
horted in sermons to greater acts OF faith
and devotion.
