Something About the Pictures.

In the presentation of the rough
sketches, which appear in this weeks
issue of the PLANET. 1 lay no claim to
accuracy. The only object was to
place wildly before the reader the
striking passages in this simple, but
touching narrative,
If by their aid, the interest is increas
ed and the statements made more eff
fective, their purpose and the aim
of the undersigned has been accom-
plished. May the public sympathize
with the unfortunate people as I have
done, and the efforts to save Pokey
Barnes unfortunate companion re-
doubled. Mary Alternately is still in
the shadow of the gallows, Mary
Barnes is in the Virginia penitentiary
The case has cost much money; the
expense now is equally as heavy. God
will bring all things right in His own
time.
Ten weary months have passed, but
we remember that the race is noI
given to the swift, nor the battle to
the strong, but he that holdeth out to
the end" Let us continue to hope.

The attention of a generous, kind
hearted public is respectly invited to
the third and fourth Sundays in June
next, as the days set apart for Fifth
Street Baptist Church Rally days. i
am ever-mindful OF the liberal support
and encouragement given me in my
work for the four years l have been
here and respectfully ask cOntinu-
ance of the same.
1t will be remembered that our
church was in debt about SIC. 200. but
| am thankful to say that by the unit
ed strength of a loving congregation,
the strong support of a wide-awake
deacon board. and the liberal DISPOSE
ton of the citizens and members of
other churches we have succeeded in
keeping up our current expenses and
at the same time reduced our debt to
a out SO 600.
Our punch cards are out, our work
ing clubs are bestirring themselves
and we ask all friends to the cause OF
the Master tocOme to our rescue
Very respectfully
w. +. GRAHAM, pastor
