used. it was learned that. while the amount
OF money represented by the stock in
the new steamship trust given Mr. Morgan
seems large. it is not nearly so much as

trust and other combines effected by him.
According 10 this authority. Mr.. Morgan
received 500. coo 600 in stocks in the United

garded at the time as equivalent 20 S0.co.-
600 in cash. In the formation Of the Ameri-
can Bridge Company he is accredited with
having received 100000 IN common stock.
In the promotion Of North Pacific deals
which went TO the formation OF the North

credited with having received S25.000.OO0 in

ton trust. Mr.. Morgan is credited with hav-
ing been given SSo.oo0.OOO OF the stock as

Corporation attorneys OF national fame
are greatly interested in these figures. but

PRoTEMUs.

Last Sunday was red-letter day
for the Methodist church at Lib.
erty-rally day. Rev. Mr.. Lowery
preached his last sermon of the
conference year, and, to our iudg-
ment, the best sermon during the
two years; subject, Little Things
text, John ii. l5-.Take us the
foxes, the little foxes that spoil the
vines; for our vines have tender
grapes" He showed very conclu-
sively from Bible standpoint that
little sins, such as we see no harm
in-the dance, dram drinking, leav-
sing the. truth untold in a trade,
swearing, staying from church be-
cause all things don't suit are in
s1dious and dangerous sins. After
the sermon the finest dinner, such
as Methodists can spread, was en-
joyed by two or three hundred peo-
pie from the four corners of Obion
county, and my! the victuals that
were devoured! After about an
hour, IN which both young and old
enjoyed each other in conversa-
ton, we were called together and
listened to some fine songs, well
rendered, Miss Emma Covington at
the organ, with the Antioch choir
to her assistance. The best we think
were Sunday School all Round the
World" and pity the Heather
Children. Select readings were
given by Miss Fanny May Williams,
Herman Marshall, Pearl Williams.
The "Gleaners" came in with their
collection of SIS; yet behind $3.50,
which the congregation made good.
Rev. Lowery has done we'll, and we
love him for his earnest zeal and
honest religious convictions. Never
before, as we know, did this circuit
go out clean and even with every
thing, and Methodists may thank
Mr.. Lowery for it all.
