SERIES OF LECTURES
BEING CONDUCTED BY REV. LINDSAY
CLOSE TONIGHT.

Under the auspicies Of the Ep-
worth League, Rev q. D. Lindsay
has been delivering series Of
! lectures this week on "He chose
five stones from the brook" Sam |
17:40. The interest has continued
to grow with each lecture,
The first stone represented, Pur-
pose, or "beginning life with some
thing in view The subject was
handled in mastery manner and
spiced with just enough wit and
humor to keep the audience enthu-
siastic.
The second stone represented
Education, or preparing to carry
out your purpose. 3" Christian ed
ucation WAS the theme, and it was
closed with strong appeal to
"Denominational Patriotism" !" EN-
phasizing the duty of each church
to be loyal to its own schools.
TIE third stone represented
Confidence, or believeing you can
90 thing and doing it" Partic,
ular stress was laid on the fact that
too many people have confidence,
but lack judgment. This point
was happily illustrated by the story
Iof nna,..sellAA.e,.sr.~anSaos;g ~aanSaos;ged in
went out West, ana enSaSeo III
sheep -herding and who made the
mistake of corralling jack-rabbits
for lambs.
The fourth lecture was sermon
on Glove, or the spirit IN which
YOU should do thing" 1T was a
splendid effort dealing with that
"greatest of all christian graces.
The last lecture will be delivered
tonight on "The result of a care
fully prepared life"
There is no measuring the goo'
that will result from this course o.
lectures, only eternity can tell.

NEGROES FIGHT

John Mitchell and Robert Hop
SON, both colored, had a difficulty
at the o. VanRiper mill near the
depot Saturday, and in the general
mix4up that followed, Hopson re-
ceiveA two or .lree cuts froll =. =.
.snr in the hands of Mitchell: "a
triAl followed Monday. Mitchell
claimed that he acted in self-de-
fence in striking Hopson, but
claimed that he never cut him in
tentionally. but that the cutting
was done accidentally in the fight.
1t seems that Hopssn called
Mitchell vile name and stopped
down to get club when Mitchell
Jumped on him. But the court
couldn't see how so much cutting
could be done accidentally and a
fine of $40. was assessed against
him, the original charge Of agri-
waited assault being dismissed.
Hopson was afterwards arrested
for breach Of peace and fined 50.
on plea Of guilty.

the penalty for violating the Hog
Law as he calls it..
beg to differ With my learned
friend upon the Sfropoaition that
the law he quotes has my refer
ence to the present "Ft Ence Law
now said to be in force IN Hemp
stead County. If the "Judge"
will read Sections 1878. 1879, 1880
and on, including 1413 Of Kirby
Digest he will see that tthe penalty
he speaks of is for violEation of the
old Fencing District stdh htute which
was passed in 1899; al id has not
the remotest reference te J our Fence
Law adopted $50 called D by the
voters at the last general election.
Our present law has lito penalty
for its violation; unless ehe dam

culture, (of which has &c Il sri sri

others thought that the pJ lying OF

impounded, would be penalty
enough. 1t was not the lntention
of the legislature to make HI penal
violation of the law for Ieople to
