Annual Reunion of Sunday
School Workers

A new feature was this year
added to the county Sunday
school convention, for on Satur-
day evening supper was pro-
vided at the court house by the
frier ds of the Milbank schools,
and three long tables were filled
with the guests of the occasion.
The repast was an excellent one
and served to make the delegates
and visitors feel at home. After
the supper had been disposed of
the exercises were opened with
short praise service. in which
the orchestra of the Milbank M :.
E. school furnished some pleas
ing instrumental music. Miss
Chris tina Koch read an excellent
paper on the "Teacher Duty to
the Glass, in which the impor-
tant responsibility of the Sunday
school teacher were clearly and
forcibly presented. This was
followed by the taking up of a
mum Der of questions from a
question box.
The Sunday sessions of the
convention were held at the M.
E. church. In the afternoon
Mrs. G. A. Wood read a paper
on the Responsibility of Par
ents," which elected the com.
mendation of all present for the
manner in which the subject was
presented and pressed. home to
the hearts aud consclences of
those who have the care and
training of children. The pres
ident, under the subject "Weak
Places in Sunday School Work
in Grant County," pointed out
the fact that there are many To-
calities in the county where no
Sunday school nor other re-
ligious privileges are enjoyed,
and made the statement that the
localities where Sunday schools
were organized and conducted
were almost universally in ad
vance in all intellectual condi
tions of the comm unities that
were destitute of religious priv
ileges
Reports were presented from
some of the Sunday schools, but
the number Of schools that made
no complete report was sugges,
tive of the thought that the value
and interest of the conventions
would be materially helped by a
report from each school in the
county. At the afternoon meet
ing the following officers were
elected: President, Mrs. G. A.
Wood: vice-president, M. M.
Ramer; secretary, J. e. Truran;
treasurer, A. T. Horton.
In the evening Rev. w. B.
Hubbard, of Webster, who is
state mmitteeman of the ma
sional association, addressed a
large congregation, outlining the
machinery by which the Sunday
schools of the land are brought
into touch with each other
through the international lesson
system, and pointed out the
great progress in Sunday school
work that had been achieved
during the last half century, and
some of the benefits of the inter
national system.

Iron and Copper,

The world could not get along today
without iron and copper. The entire
loss of all the gold and silver in the
world would not be nearly SO serious
as would be sudden exhaustion of all
the iron and copper. since iron is used
for all purposes of construction, and
copper is an absolute requisite in the
use of electricity to the enormous ex-
tent which now obtains.

Petition for Pardon Of ]. W. Clark, Con
vIcted of Felony.
TO Governor A. ii. LONGING

10 Governor a. ID. L0Dglno;
At the May term 1898. of the circuit
court of the first judicial district of the
county of Perry, j. w. Clark was tried
and convicted on q charge OF robbery,
and was sentenced to serve ten years in
the state penitentiary. to which he was
carried q few days thereafter, and that
he has been in the said penitentiary
continually since that time.
At the time of said conviction saja
Clark was only twenty-three years old,
in good health, but that soon after his
confinement in the penitentiary his
health gave way and has since that time
continually TO the present time been
very bad and that he is not able to do
much work; and that he is alsoruptured
and in the year 1900 he had very hard
spell of typhoid pneumonia, from which
he has never sufficiently recovered to be
able 10 do manual labor, and he has
very little hopes of ever regaining his
health while he is confined.
During all the time he has been serv
ing under said sentence, he has never
caused any trouble to the persons having
charge of him. but on the other hand he
has always been obedient, in the com
pliance with the commands and require
ments of those in whose charge he has
been.
We, therefore, believing that the ends
of justice have been fully met in his
case, and owing TO the impaired condi
ton of his health, together with the fact
that he has never given any trouble,
respectfully petition that he be granted
full pardon.
Very respectfully yours,
(Signatures.)

THE AFTERNOON NEWSPAPERS.
Louisville Post.

LOUISVILLE HO5C.
The afternoon newspaper is the
paper the people read. 1t goes to
, the home to be read around the
J fireside by every member of the
, family.
Each season marks the growth
of the afternoon newspaper. In
Louisville, as in Cincinnati. IL
dianapolis, Columbus, Chicago,
st Louis and Nashville, the after
noon newspapers have the cir
cuIation and the advertising, and
spend the money.
This is especially true at st.
Louis and indianapolis, where the
local advertisers have simply
taken possession of the afternoon
newspapers, which, not once a
week, but two or three times q
} week, APPEAR with seventy five,
eighty five, min ty or one hundred
J columns of advertising.
! This is in accordance with the
laws of commercial development.
The man of business. with a great
plant and large stock, cannot
afford to have dull day any more
than he can afford TO have dull
seasons. He must make each day
count, and he must push his buci
} ness if ne does not wish to have
I hi business push him. So TO get
in touch with the buying public,
to let the shoppers of the CITY aud
state know what be has for sale,
he must more and more use the
columns of the afternoon news
papers. Thus it is that not here
alone, but all over thu country, the
afternoon newspaper goes for
5 ward. while the morning compila-
4 ton stands still or goes back.
