ADJUSTMENTS.
OPENING OF THE GRAND BY THE
JEWELL KELLEY STOCK co.

That popular organization, the
Jewell Kelley Stock Co., opened the
regular season of the Grand Monday
night presenting for the first time in
the city, 1.-The Gates of Justice" a
four-act comedy drama which received
the appreciation of the packed house
present. The Jewell Company is de-
cided favorlte in the city and the
opening Monday night was a fiattering
reception. The entire house was sold
out Monday morning and when the cur
tain went up on the performance at
night, the house was packed to over
flowing, while fully three hundred
people were turned away, unable to
gain admittance.
1t can be truthfully stated that Mr..
Kelley has first-class attraction, the
best ever seen here in its line. The
company is much stronger than last
season and their tour this year should
be productive of fame and fortune.
MI. Kelley himself is one of the
best young actors, and has surrounded
himself with an evenly balanced COM
pany. The work of Foster Ball and
Babe Doris is of a high order, their
work being artistic, and the best ever
seen on the local stage with a popular
priced company. The company's sue
cess in Paris is foregone conclusion.
Tonight romantic drama, 1.-The
Land of the Midnight Sum- will be the
play. At the Saturday matinee Little
Lord Fauntleroy" will receive the ap.
probation, while 1.-The Whole Damn
Family will conclude the engage
ment Saturday night

A Great Gathering OF Sunday
School Workers.

Next Monday and Tuesday, the Sun
day School workers will gather in con-
ventiOn from all over the county.
There is yet time for schools to elect
delegates and send report if they have
not already done so. The program will
begin promptly at $3.50 a. m. and all
are urged to be present and stay till
the close at p. m. Let every worker
come praying for blessing, and with
mind to learn. Each delegate should
bring note book and,pencil, take copious
notes, and make report to his Sunday
School the following Sunday. Next in
Importance to the preaching service of
the church stands the teaching service.
The pastor is irresponsible for the:one
as for the other. How better can our
pastors better this cause than by meet
ing together for conference under the
leadership of Sunday School expert
But how can pastors advance the cause
II Indifferent parents, superintendent,
and teachers, block the way? Is it ask
ing too much of pastors not only to at
tend but to urge the parents, the super
intendents and the teachers to attend
also? We are praying and expecting
that great good shall flow from this
convention. Let every one do his part,
and God will surely bless US. A great
revival wave is sweeping the country
and statistics show that the Sunday
School is the richest harvest field of
the church. Soul winning in the Sun
day School will receive great promi-
nence on the program. There are in
Kentucky between 400, 900 and 500, 600
white Protestant children of school age
not in any Sunday School and our
county has its proportion. Plans will
be discussed to reach these children
and bring them into the Sunday School
and the church. This convention
should be red-letter day in our county
and christians all over the county are
urged to attend. and those who can not
are asked to pray in their homes that
we may be guided by the Holy Spirit
in our plars and deliberations for the
unsaved of our county.

parent.

Chicago, Feb. 7.--Following upon the
heels of Deacon Cossum's rebellion
against First Apostle Dow e and his
declaration that Zion is a failure and
that the church is bound toward ruin
comes the news that a quiet exodus of
some of the most prominent of Zion S
leaders is taking place daily from Zion

with Dowie, taking pictures of lions
hosts, had left the city 1t was also
said that Deacon r. H Harper, former

Others Resign.
In the wake of this news comes the
that Deacon Charles Mey-

ALARMED BY ANNAPOLIS DEVEL-
OPMENTS SENDS LETTER
TO CONGRESS ASKING
CHANGES.

Washington. d. c., Feb. 7.-Unless
congress modlfies the law against haz-
ing the secretary of the navy may be
forced to dismiss 33 midshipmen from
the naval academy within the next
month, in addition to the eight who
already have suffered this penalty and
the three whose cases are awaiting
action.
Service Will suffer.
What is worrying the navy depart
ment is that if the present law is al
lowed to stand the service will suffer
by the wholesale dismissals. Secretary
Bonaparte. in addition to calling the
attention of congressman to the situa-
ton, laid the matter before the presi-
dent with the result that the latter has
made public letter urging that con-
gress modify the law against hazing at
the naval academy.
The president points out that in
some instances it is manifestly unjust
to subject a midshipman convicted of
hazing to dismissal from the academy,
as frequently the punishment is quite
disproportionate to the offense com
mitted He suggested. further, that it
is an error to try a midshipman ac-
cused of hazing by court martial His
idea is that the power to deal with
such cases ought to be lodged in some
administrative officer or body to deal
summarily with the cases.
Raised by Pardon.
The president was induced to take
up the subject with the committees of
congress by reason of the facts sub
mitted to him in the John Paul Miller
case. He pardoned young Miller. be-
cause he felt that his dismissal from
the academy would be a greater in
justice than the midshipman had COM
mtted on the man he hazed.

WRIT BY CHICAGO MIN
ISTERS.

preme court today denied a motion for
leave to file a petition for a writ to
compel Mayor Dunno of Chicago to en-
force the Sunday closing law as applied
to saloons. The court held it had no
jurisdiction in the matter.
Given Due Consideration.
Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. THE appli-
cation of the Rev William A. Bartlett
and other Chicago ministers for a writ
of mandamus to compel Mayor Dunno
TO close the Chicago saloons on Sunday
was received gravely by the supreme
court of Illinois yesterday and as
gravely referred.
Stead Gives Opinion.
Attorney General Stead threw what
Nigh be called a bombshell into the
saloon controversy in the shape of an
opinion which he gave to Gov. Deneen
on this question. 1t went to the root
of the matter and held absolutely that
it is the duty of the mayor or other
officer at the head of the municipality
to enforce state laws where the gov
ernor has no legislative authority to do
the work himself 1t goes farther than
that and holds that the municipal Off
Ger who fails of his duty is guilty of
malfeasance in office and should be
punished therefor.
Stands Law.
The opinion is important for the rea'
son that. according to custom and
practice in Illinois. an opinion of the
attorney general stands as the law OF
the state until the supreme court has
decided otherwise.
