Religious Meetin IS

Outline OF sermon preached on
Sunday evening by Rev. A. Link
letter.
The introduction related to the
things. that christian had to stand
for In this world. Faith was rep
resented as active. leading to noble
deeds. It.was that principle, the
obedience OF which led to Justifca-
ton, Roman 81
1t was this faith that brought
about repentance which was more
tn an simply reforming or sorrow
for the sins of the past. It had TO
represent a specific change of mind
radical change that caused turn
irg away from sin and the leading
of a new lite. The change that
repentance had to do with, stood
related to the atonement which
covered the quiet of the
past life The speaker declared
the atonement of Christ TO be
necessity If 1t was passible for
a man afier he came into the
church to live on such high NOR
al and spiritual plain as to com
mend him to God. There must be

that repen ence ard the obedience
that follow bring with 1t the re-
mission of past sins through the
atouement OF Christ After man

stand for the proper observance of

hope that all christians must have.
For here was the dividing line e

A Christian stands for hope that
is spread abroad In the hearts by
the Holy Spirit, which he has

shops first but has the promise of a
foremanship at the first opportunity.

CUSTER'S ORDERLY
is UNDER ARREST
Charged With Killing a Man in
New York.
a Few Years Ago He Travelled For a
Paducah Wholesale Whiskey
House.
ONLY SURVIVOR OF MASSACRE.

w. II. MCGEE. formerly a whlskey
drummer travelling out of Paducah,
Is under arrest in New York on
charge OF murder. MCGEE came here
few years ago to travel in the west
for Loeb & Bloom. and while a guest
at the Palmer House was interviewed
by Sun reporter relative to being
the sole survivor OF the Custer mas
sacre and a few days later the st
Louis papers published full page sto-
ries about him.
MeGee claims he was an ORDERLY
TO Gen. Custer on that memorable
expedition to Little Horn, end was
mere boy at the time.
Gen. Custer sent him with dis
patches to Gen. Reno's division some
distance away just before the last
fight" and in this way MCGEE e.
capped the death that befell every oth-
er person in brave Clusters command.
He had all the papers to prove his
assertion.
He did not. remain with the Pa
ducah house long. and nothing had
since been heard Of him here until
the following appeared in yesterdays
dispatches:
New York, Dec. 10.-Wm. MCGEE,
who claims to be the sole white sur.
vivor of Clusters command in the ia
nous battle of the Little Big Horn. is
under arrest here charged with
homicide.
Late Thursday nlght.he got into an
argument with Frank Mitchell, a
saloonman, over the proper method
of cooking a kidney stew. 4 quarrel
followed and the men attacked each
other with kitchen knives, the fracas
having occurred in Mitchell's Hat.
MCGEE. who lived on the western
front for forty years, declares Mitch
ell attacked him first and by practic-
ing an old trick felled his opponent,
not however, until ne receiver Sc
we're scalp wound.
Mitchell did not appear badly of
at the time. but he died twenty-four
hours later. MCGEE was arrested in
the meantime in a newspaper office,
where he had gone to set the editor
right regarding the story of the
fight.
In telling his story of the army
MCGEE declared he was detached by
Custer Just before the massacre TO
carry a message to Mai. Reno. who
was to have made joint attack with
Clusters troops on the Indians.
MCGEE bears the scars of 'aany
wounds which he claims to have re-
ceived before he reached Reno's
forces. Recently he came here from
Texas and has been canvassins for
magazine.
