George AIDES musical comedy, THE
Night of the Fourth" will be presented
at the Bijou this week by the Wells
Dunno Harlan company, which has been
secured for another week. The piece has
been seen here before and it is regarded
as one of the best of the early efforts
of the popular author.
The story deals with an eccentric old
millionaire, Eli Frost, who has a horror
of a noisy celebration on July 4. lie
goes to the country to spend the day
and finds that the Stepsons of the Amer
lean Revolution have arranged to celo-
brate the day in proper style. An amusing
series of situations and complications fol-
low, ultimately ended by Frost being
blown through a door by giant fire
cracker.
In the offering this season a number
OF new musical selections have been in
terpolated which are said to work tho
Musical Maidens overtime The origin
al cast of favorites, headed by Little
Chip and Mary Marble, will be seen in

BISHOP SETH WARD
BREACHES SERMON
URGES GRADUATING GLASS OF
OWENToN COLLEGE TO PUT
FIDELITY FIRST-cRoWD OVER
TAXED CAPACITY OF HALL.

The commencement sermon of the north
Alabama Conference college at Owenton
was preached by Bishop Seth Ward in
the chapel of the college yesterday morn
ing. A crowd which overtaxed the seat
ing capacity of the hall assembled to
hear the words of the distinguished di-
vine, and the opinion prevailed that the
discourse was a masterful effort of pulpit
oratory.
The bishop preached from the text Of
the parable of the talents as related in
the 18th chapter of Matthew. First touch
ing on the necessity Of such an occasion
as the cycle of time had now brought
to the college, he urged his hearers to
try and look at life from the divine point
of view. Then in connection with this
treatment of the text. he said that there
are four great stages or principles in
mans life-investment, responsibility, fdel-
ity and reward
Taking each head separately, Bishop
Ward explained how God invests every
one with certain talents, how we must an
prehend and try to appreciate the re-
sponsbilities that such an investment en-
tails on us, how God tests us by the
fidelity which we exercise, and finally.
how the reward of faithfulness lis sure.
Bishop Ward said that fidelity is the
supreme test of God, and charged his
hearers as follows: II say to you, put
fidelity first"

NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-Thomas A. Edi-
son did not know until informed By a
reporter. that Judge Hazel, in Buffalo.
had handed down decision against the
Goulds and in favor of the inventor. in
a suit which has been slumbering in the
courts thirty years. and which although
originally specifying about 100000 dam
ages, may now involve nearly fifty mil

The Wizard expressed immense salts
faction over the winning of the case, as
for ten years he has been expending
something like Sl.OOO,O0G annually in one
project alone-the reduction of Iow-grade
ore in New jersey.
Tremendous Importance attaches to the
victory of Edison financially. and be-
cause 1t is a direct blow to the great in
tcrests of the Western Union Telegraph
Company. which for thirty years. the
inventor says, has been employing de-
vices owned and patented by him.
Judge Hazel has ordered that an ac-
