During the progress Of Rev. James Yer
mons sermon at the Christian Church in
Independence, Mo-, Frank Hester, a
hanger-on about saloons, who is known
to the police, arose in the rear of the audi
ence and announced that he wanted to
join the church. Il want to join the
church; am converted" yelled the man
with glowing red eyes and disheveled hair,
in loud, husky voice. Hester was seized
by half dozen strong hands and escorted
to the front door. The pastor had not
proceeded very far, however, before the
man returned and forced his way down
the aisle toward the pulpit. Il am going
to take charge of this business myself
said Hester, threateningly. "You people
don't like me, and l am going to clean
you out" At this juncture the congre-
cation was on the verge Of a panic and
women began to scream and faint. Sew
eral men grappled with the insane man,
who Immediately drew a large knife and
a pistol and prepared to defend himself.
Pandemonium reigned, and amid the
shrieks Of women and children and the
threats and curses Of Hester, the audi
ence fed from the church, leaving the in
truder in the building. The police were
summoned and the man was subdued and
taken to Jail.

Concerning That Cow.

Eds. 'RecordUnion" In your issue
of the 10th inst. / noticed the following
paragraph:
There is a COW in the last stage of
starvation lying in the road a short
distance above the Lewis orchard
about three miles from town. The
COW has been fed and watered by
some one, but should be sheltered or
removed from the hot sun
In justice to myself, would state that
the COW was not in the last stage of
starvation, as it had been properly fed
and cared for. The some one, who fed
and watered the animal, did so at my
request
Also, would have removed the ami
NAL in due time, had not some un-
scrupulous party taken the liberty of
knocking the COW in the head and
killing it. f. w. EHRHARDT.
