OUTING Was A
FINE SUCCESS

The outing of the missionary work
ers under the auspices of the Woman s
Missionary society of the Grove Pres
byterian church held in the grove
around the latter pleasant house of
worship Friday proved very sue
cessful affair, quite as enjoyable as
the occasion was novel.
About 100 delegates were present,
representing, in addition to the ladies
of the Grove Presbyterian church, the
Woman's Missionary societies of Ber-
wick, Bloomsbury, Orangeville and
Mooresburg. The visitors arrived be-
tween the hours of II and IL o'clock.
Previous to that hour the ladies of the
Grove church might have been seen
vending their way to the church ac-
companied with baskets containing
dishes and good things to eat. Tables
were tastefully spread in the grove

appearance everything was ready for
dinner.

was a most sumptuous affair and prov
ed feature of the days outing Sec
ond only to the excellent addresses
which followed.
About two O'Clock the assemblage
retired into the church, wh ere the ad-
dresses were delivered. The first ad-
dress was by Mrs. Bailey, State synod
ical president, who selected as her
subject, "Service for Christ" She is
pleasing speaker and her remarks
we're most convincing, She present
ed her discourse under the different
heads of Holy Service, " Joyous
Service, " Satisfied Service, " Re
ward of Service, " "Whole- Hearted
Service" and willing Service" ex-
planning and illustrating each by pass
ages of Scripture and experiences
from religious life.
Mrs. Bailey was followed by Miss
Rupert and Miss Frick. Miss Rupert
is home missionary from New Mex
leo and her remarks related to the
school for girls at Santa Fe, of which
institution she is teacher. Her ad-
dress was most edifying and proved a
great inspiration. Miss Rupert was
formerly from Bloomsbury. The vii
lage of Rupert was named in honor of
her grandfather.

CAPTURED AN
AMERICAN EAGLE

Arthur Cook, son of County Com
missioner Charles W. Cook, on Friday
enjoyed the novel distinction of cap
turing a bald eagle alive. In company
with his father he was driving into
Danville and was passing through
Warmers hollow near the slope when
he spied the majestic bird among the
water plants evideatly in pursuit of
prey.
The young man at once saw that
there was a possibility of capturing
the eagle and prevailed upon his faith
er to hold up the horse while he made
the attempt. Picking up couple Of
stones he stole within easy range and
proved his skill by hitting the big
bird the first time he tried. The eagle
endeavored to fly, but, wounded in one
of it's wings. was unable to rise.
The young man waded into the
water and succeeded in capturing the
eagle, which he dragged to the road
side. later placing it in the buggy.
The big bird, although young, mea-
sured some four feet from tip to tip of
wings, and was pretty hard to handle.
AS may be imagined it was not plea
SAINT companion in the buggy and it
required the united strength of the
two men to keep it in subjection.
Arriving at the farm of William
Churm a little further on they were
glad to get rid of the eagle and pre-
sented it to the farmer, who imprison-
ed it in his corn crib. During Satur-
day and Sunday the bald eagle was the
object of much curiosity, as it was the
first time that many persons ever had
an opportunity of viewing the great
king of birds.
While imprisoned at Mr.. Churm S
the eagle devoured chicken, which
was thrown into the corn crib giving
evidence of most voracious appetite.
