Church Notes.
BAPTIST.

Our prayer room looks very nice
since it has been seated with the new
chairs.
Bro. Bateson is kept quite busy OF
late making PASTORAL calls, as many of
our church people are sick.
We aye pleased to learn that Brother
Frank Potter has returned from the
West He has been kept very closely
at home by the illness of his parents.
Herbert Harrington has asked that
his church letter be sent to the First
Baptist church of Boone. This call
brought sadness to the hearts of many
of our people, for we had hoped that
Herbert might be with us as resident
member ere long.
On Sabbath last our congregation
listened to two excellent sermons. The
theme for the morning was Prayer"
Every thought suggested was wonder
full in beauty and strength. We regret
that more of our church members did
not hear it.

morrow "wednesday afternoon at 2

week owing to the extreme cold.
Mrs. r. w. Pierce and Mrs. A. III.
Bowen entertained their Sunday school
classes much to the delight of their
pupils.
Sunday school last Sunday numbered
234 notwithstanding the extreme cold.
The orchestra was out in full force and
gave few fine selections.
Mrs. r. c. Evans led the Epworth
League Sunday evening. A missionary
program will be given next Sunday
evening on China. A number of papers
will be given.
PRESBYTERIAN.
The severity of the cold weather dim
inished the attendance at Sabbath SER
vices especially from the country, but
profitable services we're enjoyed. The
pastor preached in the morning on
"Christian Forgiveness and in the
evening on ssEzekiel's Vision.,, In the
musical service the choir rendered
new anthem in the morning, and Miss
Terry favored the congregation with a
well chosen solo in the evening.
The Christian Endeavor topic was
Seeking the Lost''-as illustrated in
the parallels of Luke, 18th chapter, and
was led by Mrs. Adah Glenn with her
usual careful preparation.

a STRANGE CASE.
A Stolen Horse. A Dead Horse. and No
Horse at All

a Stolen Horse. A Dead Horse. and No
Horse at All
One of the queersst cases of horse
sleallhg on record III this county has
come TO HIGHT this week. On Saturday
night Mi. Wan. Mcbride found one of
ms best horses gone from the stable
and IA dead horse on the roadside near
his place. Mr.. Mcbride did not fancy
the exchange and at ouce instituted a
search for his lost property. On the
same day Mr.. Sam Dodge found a
stray horse on his place which proved
to be the one stolen from Mr.. Mcbride.
The officers found that the men who
had taken the horse were Jack Kelly
and j. M. Ehlers and that the team
they had been driving belonged to Mr..
Oliver. railroad grader. They further
found that the two fellows had taken
the train at Dow City and gone west,
leaving the wagon and one horse at
MIR. divers.
MIR Oliver was arrested on suspicion
OF having had something to do with the
crime. 1t looks however as if he was
entirely innocent and he is in fact the
only loser by the deal, as his horse is
dead and he has suffered the iuconyen-
fence and isnominy of arrest.
He says he knows nothing of the of
tense, that the men were broke and be
gave them shelter they promising to
pay when they got money, he gave
them the use of his team on the same
terms, with results as noted.

THE SOLDIERS HOME.
Yellow FeVer Last Visited the LO

The Soldiers Home, in Hampton,
Va, where the yellow fever has brok-
en- cut, IS one mile distant from Fort

dred yards from the Hampton Normal
and Agricultural School. 1t is be-

are about 900, and the most of them
old men who are rather Incorporate
and feeble Few of them are strong
enough TO resist disease, and the death
rate among them is high.
That section Of the country has not
suffered from the yellow fever since
1855, when the disease was brought TO
the Citv Of Norfolk, Va, by schOOn-
CT from Cuba. The victims of the dis
ease numbered about 1000, and the
place was nearly depOpulated After
the disease spent its force, some at
tempts were made to improve the con-

no appearance OF the fever until the
present time.
Tie troops at Fortress Monroe have
been ordered 10 leave the place at
once. There is an abundance OF nos
pital accommodation not far from the
Soldiers Home, as the wounded and
sick OF the Spanish war have LETT the
place.
The ji 5ease was not pronounced vel
