 The services at the church were attend ed by a large crowd and Dr. Stagg, the orator of the occasion, had the rapt at tention of his hearers. He delivered a forceful address on "Calvinism," and made a. profound impression on the audience.
 At the Colonial hotel, where the ban duet was held, there were fully 125 peo- pIe present. The committee on arrange ments, consisting of pr. W. H. Wilder. pr. J. G. Montgomery and Walter l.. Howard, had made preparations for an elaborate feast and the two hours were delightfully spent around the festival board.
 pr. w. H. Wilder acted as toastmaster and introduced each of the speakers in a happy and witty manner.

 'Slagel did not use a sling, and took only one throw, while even the warmest supporters of ex-Champion David admit that it was not until the third round that their man landed the wallop that made Goliath look like a cipher with the ring knocked off.
 'Slagel has undoubtedly surpassed all former records in the rock throwing line That fact is as plain as Attorney Luman F. Parker, of Vinita. Slagel brought the dead eagle to town Monday, and will have 1t mounted. Size of bird, seven feet two inches from tip to tip."

Secretary HesterlsSueS Analysis
 for Four Months
TEXAS BEHIND LAST YEAR
Other Gulf States Than Texas and ln- dian Territory Show Large ln- creases In the lnto-Sleht
 Figures.

New Orleans, January 10.-Secretary Hester's analysis of the cotton movement for the four months of the season from September 1, to the close of December inclusive, shows that compared with the crop movement last year. Texas includ- ing Indian Territory, has brought into sight this season in round figures 12,O0( bales less, while other gulf states which
 includes, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mssiss- 1 ippi, Tennessee, Missouri and Oklahoma have marketed 4S4,OOO more, and the group of Atlantic states, which include North and Sout-- Carolina, Georgia, Florida Alabama and Virginia, are 65T,O0O bales ahead, making the net increase in the total of the crop marketed 1,O79000.
 MT. Hester shows the amount brought into sight by groups of states for the four months of this season as follows: Texas and Indian Territory, 2,142,9 bales, decrease under the same time last year of 12,344 an increase over year before last of 2S2, 066 and an increase over the same time in 1901, of 115,032.
 Other gulf states 2,546.154 an increase over last year of 434721, an increase over year before last of s1 1923, and an increase over 1901. of 473,O44
 Atlantic states, 3,322,341, an increase over last year of 656,s95. an increase over year before last of 657, ,19S, and an increase over 1901 of 7S4,O13.
 Total crop in sight close of December, S,110,4 an increase over last year of 1.079, ,2S2, an increase over year before last of 12S0,5S7, and an increase over 1901 of 1922 ,0S9.
 The groups of states furnished in round figures of the crops of last year, and the year before last from Texas and Indian Territory last year. 2,S76,O0O bales, and year before last 2,SSl, ,OOO; other gulf states SS67,OO0 last year, and year before last S,797, ,oO0; Atlantic states 3,7es,O0O last year and the year before last 4100,OOO
 Mir. Hester makes the total Oklahoma movement, none of which Is included in the Texas crop, for the four months ending December 51, 177,710 bales this year against 127,739 last year. and 139,- 61O year before last.
 Of the Oklahoma crop there were mar keted to and via Texas points 121, ,609 this year against 99,612 last year, and 69, ,9s6 part of the gross movement to and via Texas points, are excluded from the fore going totals of Texas insight, which rep resents only the actual net movement of Texas and Indian Territory growth.

CHAMPION THRoWER
Proved His Prowess by Killing an
 Eagle With a Stone.

From the Kansas Clty Journal.
 The Bluejacket News reports the fol- lowing unusual incident which occurred near it's town recently:
 "A party named David once gained con- siderable notoriety by knocking seven kinds of daylight out of the champion heavy weight of the Philistines with rock, at a distance of fifty yards, and until a few days ago there has been no authentic case wherein Dawes famous re- cord has been surpassed.
 However, it remained for Bluejacket farmer to demonstrate that David was not the only pebble on the beach, and performed feat that made lavid's star performance look like minority report of the Cherokee Council.

 looked a little surprised, but he said nothing.
 However, when the boy proceeded to drum upon the desk and hum an air from 'Woodland" MT Depew looked up with frown and asked sternly: Young man, do you think this Is a music hall?" The boy looked about the room con temptuously 'I guess not!' he said. 'I wouldn't pay quarter to come in here.''

NEW USE FOR MEoAPHoNEs.
Government Is Supplying Them to
 Life-saving Stations.

From the New York Herald.
 There is another use for megaphones besides to call attention to points of in- terest to be seen from the "Seeing New York" coaches or for the coaches of col lege oarsmen to better voice their in- structions to the crews Scientists have recently applied this invention to a more laudable purpose. On Falkner's island off the Connecticut coast, there has been erected huge revolving platform, on which are stationed eight large mega phones, each measuring seventeen feet and having a mouth of seven feet in dla- meter. These horns send out their cry of warning to every points of the com pass, the power being furnished by a steam whistle. This shout has been heard a distance of twenty miles and when the win. is favorable the sound will carry nearly twice as far. The instru- ment utters its warning every fifteen sec- onds, and each megaphone utters it's cry in turn, E, that the sound makes it's way over the ocean in every direction. There Is a combination of short and long blasts for each point of the compass so that a mariner may know exactly whence the sound proceeds.
 Tho government recently made an ap- propriation of s6O000O to build a light house on Diamond Shoals. off Cape Hat teras, that graveyard of the Atlantic" " which is strewn with numberless wrecks. But at depth of one hundred feet the soil Is still soft, loose sand, so that no foundation could be found for the light house. Instead a new contrivance will be shortly set afioat there held down by mushroom" anchors. The instrument will consist of two huge megaphones, with a diaphragm to be vibrated by elec- tricity. The machine will be operated by clockwork and when once wound up will shout for many months without requir- ing any attention. The necessary cur rent will be furnished by dynamo, and in calm weather the shout will penetrate the air for distance of twenty-five miles,
