Pastor Purser Called for Full Time al
the BAPTIST Church.

There was an important confer
pce held at the Baptist church on
last Thursday night, after a brief
service conducted by the pastor
and the baptism of a candidate
for membership. Delegates to
the Lincoln County Association,
which will convene Friday with
the Union Hall church, were
elected, as follows Rev. R. H.
Purser, Thos. G. Maxwell, L. P.
KEGS, j. W. White, 7. P. Scott.
The most important item of
business before the body was the
calling of pastor for the year
beginning with Jan. 1, 1904.
1t took only the time of a motion
and a second and the question,
put by Chairman Scott, to bring
the congregation to their feet in
favor of not only retaining Rev.
R. II. Purser as pastor, but with
an assured salary of 81, 900 for his
full time. 1t is confidently -ex-
pected that Bro. Purser will &C
cept the call. This is the first
time in the history of the church
that, unaided, it has called a pas
tor for full time; and the Baptists
are to be congratulated upon this
important and progressive step
they have taken. We might add
that no pastor has more acceptably
filled the Baptist pulpit at this
place than has Bro. Purser. He
has not only impressed his own
people with the sincerity of his
Christian life; but the community
at large have learned to esteem
him and trust him; not alone be-
cause of his high and holy calling,
but because in all the practical
walks of life he has proven him.
self to be fully worthy of their
confidence.
After and beginning with the first
Sunday in January, services will
be held every Sabbath at the Bap-
fist church, instead of the first
and third as heretofore.

TALK is DEAR.

A drunken man stopped a business
man on the street this morning and
wanted to talk. The drunken man had
hold of the business mans coat collar
and he could not escape. My time is
worth money" said the business man;
this conversation will cost you 25 cents
a minute. In two more minutes you
will owe me a dollar" The drunken
man paid the dollar and, when time
was up he said he guessed he had
enough. The experiment was such a
success that the Sober Mans anti-cOn-
Yersation union will be organized at
once, and a scale of prices fixed. The
charge for time occupied by a plain
drunk will be a cent a minute; fancy
drunk, with free Lunch breath, double
price; extra fancy trunk, with breath
smothered in onions, rhree prices and
money in advance; where drunken man
holds sober man by the coat or con-
tinues to shake hands through CONVEX
sation, double price; all jokes at which
a sober man must laugh are extra,
charges being gagged by age and
toughness of joke.-Atchison Globe.
