PREACHED ON LOVES LAMENT.
Rev. w. f. watkins sermon at the
Union Services.


The union services continue at the First
Baptist Church with unabated interest.
There was a large attendance last night
at the beginning of the song service. which
was conducted by Mr.. Sellers, he sung
Under His Wings" with very happy eff
feet.
Rev. W. F. Watkins preached from the
text, Matt. 1887: "Oh Jerusalem, Jeru>
salem, thou that killest the prophets. and
stonest them, which are sent unto thee
how often would have gathered thy chill
dren together, even as a hen gathereth
her chickens under her wings, and ye
would not"
From this text Mr. Watkins drew the
theme, Loves Lament" "Those words
reveal the heart of Christ" said the
preacher. at shows how earnest Jesus
was to save the guilty. Jerusalem was
under impending doom, but did not seem
TO be aware of it. Men are hard TO be
warned of danger. His desire to save the
sinner is not chilled by any SIM or per-
versity, or any delay. He gives shelter
and rest to those who come to Him, las
a hen gathers her chickens under her
wings" The text tells why some are lost,
Il would, but We would not" The dis
course was strong and clear
Cottage prayer meetings will be held at

AT REST IN THE FAMILY LOT.
The Body of Young Mcdonald Buried
in Isle of Hope Church Yard.

The Body of Young Mcdonald Buried
in Isle of Hope Church Yard.
The body of young Mcdonald, who was
buried in rice field at Isle of Hope last
Thursday owing to a misunderstanding re-
garding the privilege of burial in the
churchyard, were disinterred night before
last by a number of the friends of the
young man and placed in the lot in the
churchyard beside the remains of others of
his family.
The refusal to allow the burial in the
churchyard at first stirred up considerable
feeling among the residents at Isle of
Hope, but after the explanation of Presid-
ing Elder Thompson the matter has been
Strengthened out and it is thought that
there will be no further trouble.
The churchyard is large enough to bury
every resident of Isle of Hope said a gen.
tleman who discussed the matter yester-
day, and the only authority to prevent
burlals there must come from the board of
trustees of the church, who are extremely
unlikely to take any such step.

A Good Scheme.

Mr.. Leak, owner of the famous eI-
hibit cars which have been used for
exploiting California's resources, IS ne
gotiating with the state board Of trade
to devote their use in rendering the
same service for Arkansas. How to ad-
vertise the state successfully has long
been a subject that has eDgrossed the
attention of our people, and Mr.. Leak s
plan is meeting approval Of business
men and progressive citizens in all Sec
tious of the state. Mr.. Leak offers to
furnish two exhibition cars free of rent
to the state for three years and pay ali
expenses incurred in making the ex-
hibit during that time outside the state.
In return he asks the citizens to place
an exhibit from all over the state, con-
sisting of fruits, vegetables. grains,
timber, minerals, etc. to furnish band
and necessary advertising matter to be
used in advance of the exhibit. Each
county seat will besYisited in the near
future by Mr.. Leak or some one repre-.
sentating the state board of trade. &c
explain the matter and gather the ex'
hibit. The small amount necessary to
carry out the project can easily be
raised and would be moLey well spent

A VERY PESsIMIsTIC VIEW.
cornish Diver Who Does Not Be-
lIevc the American Liner
Paris Can be saved.

Falmouth, May PA leading Corn
ish diver, who returned here last night
from the Paris takes very pessimistic
view OF the prospects Of saving the
liner. To the press correspondent he
said:
Il do not anticipate that the Paris
will ever be fioated. She is pierced by
rocks amidships. her foreholds are
badly damaged, the bulsbeads are
practically useless, and even if she
were got of the rocks, believe she
would sink.
in my opinion the only remedy is a
false bottom. which il would take a
month to complete, and believe that
even moderately rough weather in the
meantime would break up the ship"
Everything is in readiness for to-
days effort 10 refoat the vessel. if the
weather continues favorable.
