:sAM JONES TO MEN ONLY.



Last night, ut the Auditorium, gather.
eel the largest crowd of men ever assem-
oiled under one roof in the south. Twelve
thousand men left home to 60 to heal
Rev. Sam Jones' sermon to men only.
but only eight or nine thousand could

torium, and many went away dsap.
pointed.
The text was taken from the 14th
chapter of st. Paul to the Romans: $50,
then every one shall give an account of
himself to God"
"There are three things which we
have to answer-conscience, record and
judgement" Mr.. Jones went on to say
that he was simply going to hew to the
line, "and if you get cut in half it is be-
cause you are sitting on my line, you
little fool, you.
A drunken man made some disturb
a1ce at this juncture, and Mr.. Jones
told the officers to "please take that
mouth out; if you will there won't be
any of the fellow left to make FUSS
she is drunk" said some one.
"Well, if he's drunk" said Mr.. Jones,
"treat him mercifully, for he's drunk on
Memphis whisky, and it's your fault
that he can get it to get drunk on"
After excoriating The Iunfaithful ofici-
ais and raking them over the Goals for
stuffing ballot boxes and such acts as
that, he took the ''record" part of his
discourse, which was the most interest
ing.
He said: "When you and I crossed
the line of accountability our hearts
were blank tablet, and we began to
write our record. Every mile we go we
make that record, and when we appear
before the judgement seat of God we
will have the record written that will be
our justificati or condemnation. You
can't hope to defeat justice up there;
you can't bride Gods grand jury; you
can sescape IGod. When1You all leave
this building tonight you will go in diff
ferent directions, but every stree has
sign reading: To the Judgement"
In speaking of a certain class of
churchmen, Mr.. Jones said: eff all the
chu CHI members in Memphis get to
heaven the rest of the inmates will have
to sleep with their pants under their
heads. But hear me: If we have got
hypocri 9 in our churches we got 'em
right out of your gang, Bud; and you
can have them back if you want 'em.
You run your dirty dogs into the church
and then .cuss the church for having
them"
During his discourse Mr.. Jones took
occasion to refer to the ministers. He
said in a certain city he was offered a
1925, ZOO home and big church with a
salary of $4,000 a year, but he wasn't "a
fool. II preach to two million people
and get $4,000 "a year, and l wouldn't
t Ike a smal office like that"
The close of Mr.. Jones sermon was
very touching and beautiful. He recited
The history of Ibis conversion and his
promise to his dying father, and said
that the blood of Jesus Christ had wiped
out every page of his sinful record and
made the tablets of his heart as white as
snow. He also referred to the .conver-
sion of Sam Small while he (SmalD was
reporting his sermons at lCartersville,
Ca, and wound up by strong exhorta-
ton to all present to live right and be
saved at last. About 90 per cent of
those present arose when he asked for
all to rise who would lead better life.

FEARS OF AN INVASION.
The Japanese Victories Have Aroused the
 Chineso.


 London, Sept. 17.-A Central News dispatch from Seoul says:
 Within ten hours after the conclusion of the battle the military engineers had completed a field telegraph line from here to Ping Yang. A large number of prisoners were brought into the Japanese camp from houses in which they had hidden themselves during the final assault. Several thousand Chi nese fled toward a valley to the north ward and upon finding their retreat in this direction cut off, surrendered In a body. Ping Yang is now being searched in the belief that number of important Chinese officers are in hiding in the city under the protection of friendly Coreans.
 The number of Chinese killed is esti- mated at 2,30O. The walls of Ping Yang were badly shattered by the cannonade WhASh "dc PoaiSo 4Poh ShSLi " lhc guns of the Japanese, but the city it. self is only slightly damaged. The Japanese emperor has tslegraphed from Hiroshima, where the headquarters of the army are located, congratulating Marshal Count Yamagata upon the success of the Japanese arms.
 Marshal Yamagata has issued a gen. eral order commenting the valor of the troops which they have demon- strated on the battlefield. The order concludes with an expression of pride on the part of Marshal Yamagata at being in command of so brave an army. A flying column of the Japanese army is pushing northward with the object of taking possession of the moun- tain passes. At the same time procla- nation has been issued promising full protection to the Coreans If. they will refrain from acts of hostility toward the Japanese. On the other hand they are informed that if they give shelter to or engage in traffic withsthe Chinese they will be summarily dealt with by process of martial law. .
 A dispatch from Tokio says continu- ous artillery salutes are being fired in celebration of the victory of the Japanese army. The Shanghai Mer- cury prints a special edition contain ing dispatches from the front and edi- torial comments on the result express full appreciation of the crushing de- feat and great slaughter of the picked troops comprising the Chinese army engaged. The paper dilates upon the consequences of the disaster to the Chinese arms, and >expresses we'll grounded fear of speedy Japanese in- vasion.

A Letter from the -,evada Republican State
 Committee.
 Carson, New, Sept. 17.-Senator John P. Jones of Nevada has been requested by the republican state central commit tee to resign his seat in the United States senate, to which he was elected by republicans. .~ This request is made in long letter which was drafted by Chairman Trennor Coffin and approved by the state central committee at a meeting held in this city. The letter ex- haustively reviews Senator Jones' letter of August 29 to the former chairman of the committee, Enoch Strother, in which MT. Jones announces that he has left the republican party to join thc populists, and severely criticises his course of action. The main points of the letter are as follows:
 You say that you have not changed your principles. We'll and good, then it follows that you have merely chang ed your name, and instead of calling yourself republican you will hereafter term yourself a populist. Do the shin ing examples of populist influence (cen- spicuous among others that of your own colleague) with whom you are daia ly and hourly confronted in the senate justify the belief that such change will add to your prestige and power as a member of that body?

 Lexington. Ky. Sept r.-The Breok. inridge forces did not lay down $heiu arms when the batsse ended saturfay. They have been as busy as bees ever since trying to find soms kspholo tos escaping from the verdict. Desha Breckinridge and several friends went down to Scott county to-day cna at- tempted to enter protest against certain precincts in that couns ty, but failed. They tried to throw out precinct in this Uayettss county thai gave owens about forty majority beA down to Ccett county to-day and at- ballots had been burned were not res turned. Bob Baker, the we'll known turfman, and a strong Owens man, sos one of the fastest horses in town late this afternoon and brought the boxes in.
 There Is no questioning the cact that Breckinrldge's followers. many, of whom have bet large sums on his winning, are laying the foundation for.a contest before the district committee at Frank fort next Saturday. It is currently stated that Breckinridge's friends stand to lose between s100, ,000 and $2O0,- 900 and they will not give up until all means of defeating Owens shall havd been exhausted.
 This afternoon Milton Young, the we'll known turfman. bet s20o to $40 that Ow- ems would be the nominee, and for hours placard was posted In the Phoe- nix hotel offering to bet 1000 to $3O0 and to give $26 to anyone who would find man to take the Breckinridge end of 1t. President Treacy of the Ow- ems club says there is no doubt about Owens election. and the other Owens men are equally positive of his cleo. ton.
 The best returns that can be obtained at this hour give Owens a. plurality over Breokinridge of 330. The total vote Is as follows:
