GUESTS HAD ASSEMBLED
And Preacher Was Ready, But the
Bride-to-be Changed Her Mind.

OwENsBoRo, KY, April 1l.-.A license
to marry was issued last Saturday by
the County Clerk to Jesse Ambrose and
Cora Britt, of Philpot. The marriage
was to take place at the brides home
Sunday afternoon. About fifty guests
assembled and the Rev. K. w. CoaKley
was present to say the ceremony. The
bride arrayed herself in the bridal robes
and the groom came. Everything was
ready for the ceremony when Miss Britt
said she had changed her mind.
Nothing that her mother or Am
brose could say would induce her
to get married. Ambrose took the
preacher aside and told him the we'd
ding had been declared off, and then
took his departure. AS soon as they
could recover from their shock of sur
prise the guests departed.
The young woman declines to assign
any reason for her act, except that she
does not want 10 marry. An Owens
boro suitor, Mr.. Morgan, went out to
see her on Saturday and it is thought
his visit resulted in declaring the we'd
ding off. Ambrose and Miss Britt are
both of good families and highly re-
spected. He is a well-to-d farmer,
thirty five years old, and is widower.
She is twenty-five.

A LANDSLIDE.
Senator Morgan Wins in Alabama by
Large Majority.
B sat johnson in His Home County
by 3 to THE Gov
ernorship Race.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA, April IA
Reports from All sections OF the state
indicate landslide for Senator Nor
gan as result of the Democratic
primaries held tn day. Gov. John
ston, who has waged vigorous and
aggressive fight against Senator
M organ, Dmes out of the wreck
with only one county to his credit as
result of TO days voting, which,
added TO the counties previously in
structed for him, gives him five
counties, with a total Of five votes.
A summary of the Morgan columns
shows forty two counties to his
credit, with t"tal vote of SO in the
legislature, which insures his re-
election to the Uuited States Senate.
The result in this (Jt ff~rson) county,
the leading county of the state, and
the home of the 9 vernon, shows a
majority of 10 for Morgan. John
SONS home b44t went against him
by vote o. 29l to l04 Johnston's
headquarters were closed at IL
O'Clock to night aud nothing was
given out for publication. Chair
man White and s cretary Neal Of
the Morgan campaign committee,
both claim the state by large
majority and say that Morgan's
voie wilt be increased 10 more tnan
100 in the democratic caucus when
the returns are all in.
The govt rnOrship race is in doubt,
with a probability that no one IT the
i've candidates in the race has a
majority of the delegates, and that
the contest will have to be fought
out on the convention floor.

First Methodist Church.

The Easter Sunday services at this
church will l)ng be remembered with
pleasure by the large congregation who
attended there Sunday, for the beau
tiful floral decorations, the lovely music,
and last but most, the masterful morn
ing sermon by the pastor, Rev A. 2.
McFerrin. The subject of the discourse
was ''the Resurrection of the Body "
Mr.. McFerrin prefaced his remarks by
slying that he would not stop to discuss
the question of the resurrection of
Christ's body. That the man who
doubted that, with the open Bible before
him, might as well doubt any other we'll
in the fesurrection of the body" said
he, and the argument of his sermon was
to convince others that after death the
body will be raised again; that 1.-The
grave shall give forth its dead;"
that the same body that is sown
in corruption shall be raised in
interruption; that the same body that
is sown THAT is, dies and is buried) IA
natural body, shall be raised a spirituI
body. That cleansed of its corruption,
freed from its mort4 lity, spirituaIized,
the body, raised from the dead and
reunited with the soul, shall have
eternal life. The sermon was not only
masterful in its logic, but beautiful in
expression, and will long be remembered
as one of the best of the many able ser
mons with which the pastor favors this
congregation. Following the sermon,
as an appropriate conclusion, that
touching, tender song 1--WE Shall Know
Him by the Prints of the Nails in His
Hands," which was beautifully sung,
with Miss Roberta Williams and Mrs.
A. S. Page leading in the verses, and
full choir, of some twelve or fourteen
voices joining in the chorus.
SONG SERVICE.
An audience which taxed to its ut
most capacity the large auditorium,
gathered at the church in the evening
to hear the song service, which was
greatly enjoyed. The following pro-
gramme was rendered:

A WAR correspondent, writing
from Pretoria, tells OF display Of
Boer bravery which, ( true, should
be recorded in the pages OF history.
"The world knows no finer example
of heroism," says the correspondent,
"than that exhibited by fourteen
women one of the five days fighting
around Spion Kop. Astrictly family
party of Beers, fourteen men and
their wives, were 'intrenched in
one position and held it with
amazing bravery against q small
force of British. For a long time
the men fought incessantly and
kent their wives busy reloading their
rifles. Finally fifty British soldiers,
with fixed bayonets, charged on the
intrenchment. AS they came closer
the Boer men crept over the earth
works and while the women began
shooting, tried with the butts OF
their rifles to hammer back the
British. Before their wives eyes
every one of the fourteen Beers was
killed-bayoneted or shot. The four
teen women. so quickly widowed
never though of surrender, but
fought most viliantly and coolly for
half an hour. The British sur
rounded them; not one of the four
teen survived to mourn her hus-
band. Two days later when the
British forces retired across the
Tugels, twenty. eight cOrpses, four
teen men, fourteen women, were
found within a radius Of leo feet.
Now there Is big, long mound
where rest the bodies Of as brave a
baud rs ever fought for freedom"
