A BIG SUCCESS IN EVERY WAY.

The meeting of the Western slope
Horticultural society at Fruita Sat
urday was one OF the most success
full meetings of its kind ever held in
this section.
In spite of the bad condition of the
roads and the stormy weather the
attendance was very good indeed.
The society convened in the high
school building and the largest room
of the building proved too small to
accommodate the big crowd of fruit
men and others Interested in the
meeting and il became necessary to
seat a large number of the visitors
in the adjoining rooms
The program as published in the
Sentinel last week was carried out
with but few exceptions and changes
The various subjects were fully and
the gentlemen announced TO sneak
interestingly discussed not only by
but by many of the fruit men and
farmers who sat in the audience.
None of the addresses We're tiresome
and'eaeh one was given close atten-
ton.
Early in the evening an elaborate
banquet was served at the Odd Fell
lows hall. The spread was prepared
by the ladies of Fruita and many of

ices Great interest has been arous-
ed. immense congregations are at
tending. and not a service held SO
far has been without good results.
Rev Forsyth made no mistake In
securing DR.. Mahood TO direct the
revival
The eleven o'clock meeting was
the first service of yesterday Be
fore that hour the church began TO
fill and when the service opened the
auditorium of the church was filled
to overlooking. the lower floor of the
sunday school room was completely
4 lied and the spacious galleries
held about two hundred people. The
congregation was composed of near
ly one thousand people.
DIR, Mahood took for his text lsa-
iah 81; 14-"And Shall Say, Cast
Ye UP. Cast Ye Up. Prepare the
Way of My People" " The sermon
that followed was remarkable In its
strength and thought. The closest
attention of the congregation was
held throughout the discourse. Ii
was practical, convincing. sensible
and wholly impressive sermon The
lessons and thoughts that DR.. Mahood
drew from his text were clearly and
plainly put. His illustrations were
splendid and every one truly approp-
rate. The sermon went home to
many hearts. The invitations eX-
tended at the close brought many
responses and at the after meeting
there We're numerous conversions.
In the afternoon at three O'Clock
a young peoples rally in which all
of young peoples societies participat-
ed was held at the church. This
service also drew great congrega-
tion, the main auditorium and Sun
day school room being filled. A SER
mon specially for the young people
was preached by DIR. Mahood His
subject was THE Value of the Soul"

teresting, and made up of one long
train of mighty thoughts. 1t was
most effective and the interest arous- |
ed was something remarkable.
1t was one of the most successful !

scores of others professed a desire
to become saved.

The twentieth verse of the twelfth |
chapter of Revelations was taken as
his theme. The words of this verse

The menu was in three courses and
embraced many deltcacies. Every
Wand was superbly prepared and
there was a great abundance. The
banquet was great success. There
was no program of toasts.
Following the banquet an evening
session was held at the school build
ing and an adjournment was not
taken until nearly midnight.
About fifteen gentlemen from this
city attended the meeting and all re-
port a profitable and pleasant day.
Prof. Estes Taylor. OF the new local

met many of the fruit growers and
farmers of the lower valley.

BURGLARS USE DYNAMITE.

On Thursday night of last week, bur-
glars dynamited the safe in the store
of Mr.. Monte Shaw at Blackwells,
seven miles north OF Marietta, on the
A. K. & n. Railroad. The postoftice is
also in this store and the safe was used
by Mr.. Shaw for the postoffice deposits
as well as for his store business. The
burglars knocked off the combination
lock with hammer and put in dyna-
mite and blew the safe door open, scat
tering papers and wrecking things.
They got $l05.00 in money and some
checks, but left the stamps belonging
to the postoffice. One of the checks
was for the salary of the rural route
carrier, which MIR. Shaw had cashed.
This check was found with other
checks scattered along the road, about
a-half mile south of the store. Sheriff
w. j. Frey and Constable w. A. Bishop
visited the scene early Friday morning
and tracked the burglars to Mr.. Kemp's
in three miles of Marietta.
Mr.. Shaw says two strange white
men, one very large, wearing about
No. 10 or II shoe. and the other very
small man, were at his store and re-
manned in the woods nearly the entire
| day. The small man came to the store
and bought crackers and coca cola and
took a good view of the premises
