way Another war with the Philistine5
again exposed him. Saul ordered Jonathan
and his servants to murder him outright
when opportunity offered, but Jonathan in
terposed and the King relented. Another
war with the Philistines brought additional
honor to David, resulting in increase of
envy and causing another attempt to kill.
DaVid's wife then belriended him, and he
fled for safety to Ramah Saul sent servants
to take the fugitive and finally himself went
forth in pursuit, but the spirit of God came
upon the servants and the King. and turned
them from their purpose. 1t was soon after
that Jonathan sought David. and they had
an interview in the field, part of which
forms the lesson for the day. Before be,

M'FADDEN GONE.
He Is Charged With Embezzling Seven
Hundred Dollars in Money.

E. H. McFadden, an employee of the
Henry Rose Mercantile and Manufac-
turing Company, has skipped the town.
He is charged with having embezzled
$500 of the firms money which he had
collevted from city customers. Being
suspected, he was being checked, and,
apprehensive of the result, he left sud-
denly. Although he earned moderate
salary, McFadden was what is called
"a high roller" "a gay and festive
bird" He had been in the employ of
several railroads and was engaged by
Mr.. Rose about six months ago. It is
the old story, and the moral-never
mind the moral, but be honest. An hon.
est man, the noblest work of God never
becomes entangled in the meshes of the
law Or IS ever put in Jail for stealing.

FASHIONABLE SUITS.
Elegant Patterns in the Most Approved
Styles.

A we'll fitting suit is one of the essen
tials to comfort, and when finished in
style it becomes almost a joy forever.
To fit well, a suit or any garment gen.
tleInan would wear, must come from an
artist in his line, and one of the most
thorough is the ''old reliable" A.. Zorn,
whose fame and name is a guarantee of
satisfaction in every respect to any one
desiring a suit in the latest and most
approved style A column or more could
be printed about Zorn's success but suf-
fee it to say that gentleman who would
be well suited should call and leave his
orders with A, Zorn on Milan street
opposite the Caddo Hotel.
