TO-day-Rev. Seab Smith at Grace.
Other PUIpits TO he Filled by Their
PastOrs-Sunday schools Looking
Forward 10 Christmas Trees
But few Of the churches will hold special
Christmas services next Saturday Christ
mas day. In fact, there will be none other
than in the Episcopal and the Catholic
churches. The other denominations will
hold appropriate services Sunday instead.
Had it not been for Christmas falling on
Saturday. it is probable that special SER
vices in observance of the day would be
held by all churches.
The music will be a feature of the SER
vices in churches that will observe the
festival Programmes that are to be
sung and played are now being prepared.
The music will be of a high order.
Most of the churches will make some
provision for the poor. 1t will fall to the
Sunday school, in some instances, to help
them, while in others the work will be IN
dertaken by the church authorities. The
Sunday school children of some of the
churches will themselves be delighted with
Christmas trees or similar entertainments.
The churches provides for their own poor
first at Chris tmas time and then give indis-
criminately to ali in need as long as their
supplies hold out.

OF the alliance. He will send out pro-
grammes of the order of the services dur
ing the week. Last year. it is said, this
week of prayer was not observed at any

larry desires TO have it recognized this
time. The service will be held at his
church, and he would be glad to have
some of the others join with them. It will

other congregations to alternate i'm the
use of their houses of worship throughout
the week. At the Duffy street church
the services win be held every night at

The Nashville American had the fol-

about the evangelist who has been en-
gagged by The First Presbyterian church to
conduct Two weeks meetings for them
next month, beginning on Jan. 16: w. r.
Gales brought to a close the series of
union revival meetings he has been con
Quoting at Emmanuel Baptist church and
West End Methodist church. Nashville,
Tenn, for the past two weeks. That
the community has felt the powerful work
of this one of the most gifted preachers
ever heard in a Nashville pulpit, is evil
denced in many ways, chiefly in the large
audiences that have heard Mr.. Gales at
every service and the seriousness Of
thought and purpose manifested. The
evangelist has preached twice day for
| fifteen days. That he has had his heart
and soul in the work has been brought
home TO all who heard him. Few men
have wrought such on effect in this com
munity for years, and it Is with painful
reluctancy that The series IS closed, both
on the part of those having il in charge
and the wide circle of people who have
reaped the benefit.

Lexington. KY, May 5.-The 20
round fight between Johnny Van Heest
of Ashland, Wis, and George Stout of
Cincinnati took place here tonight I'M
der the auspices of the Navarro Ath-
letic club of this city. Van Heest
weighed in at 1271a and Stout at 1921.
George Siler acted as referee. At first
Stout seemed TO have it all his own
way-that is, he came out of the rounds
fresher than his antagonist Neither
dealt very heavy blows. Van Heest
struck out from the shoulder, while
Stout resorted to uppercuts. Stout's
friends believed that he would be the
winner until the close of the thirteenth
round, when the knock-down blow on
the chin from Van Heest's left was de-
hvered. Stout got up within ten sec
onds, groggy. Van Hest knocked him
down again with a left and a right in
the face. The gong postponed the real
knockout till the fourteenth round. One
blow at the very beginning of the
fourteenth fioored Stout and left him
unconscious.

A significant Suit.

Minneapolis May 5.-A special to the
Tribune from Tacoma, Wash, says:
James McCrea of Pittsburg, president
of the Pennsylvania company which con-
trolls the leased lines of the Pennsyl-
vania road west of Pittsburg, has COM
menced a very significant suit against
the old Northern Pacific railroad. The
suit is based on a judgment of $50, 900,
secured last year by ]. B. Montgomery
of Portland, Ore, who assigned it to
McCrea. 1t is reported that McCrea
will attack the reorganization of the
Northern Pacific ON the ground that
the transfer of property to the North
ern Pacific company was illegal and
without the sanction of congress. If
this contention can be sustained in the
courts another foreclosure will take
place, and ii is believed that through
such proceedings the Pennsylvania
road hopes to secure the road. BY Sc
curing line between Chicago and St
Paul the Pennsylvania will have track
age from ocean to ocean.
