 Decatur. Sept. 7.-(Special. )--'T II wash my hands of you. have done my duty by you. If you want to coh- tinue on your road to hell 1t ain't my fault"
 Thus spoke Evangelist Bob Jones last night as he poured the contents of a glass Of water over his hands after preaching a strong sermon on the furies of hell and asking for mourners. A few members of the con- Rregation went forward for praers and Mir Jones told the remaining of the congregation to go on their road to hell while he prayed for those who asked for prayers.
 The services are being held under large tent in New Decatur morning and night, while services are being held during the day on the street corners, at the factories. at the shops and other places. Some of the most prominent women of the Decaturs are taking part in these street services.
 Evangelist Jones told the congreEa- ton last night that the incidental coi- lections nightly should be $50.

night Of the Atheneum club and was GEL

home Of Mr.. and Mrs. Fl. F. Millikan. A
color scheme Of pink and green, the club
colors, prevailed 10 the rooms and on the

the flowers used, and the tables with their
glittering array Of out glass and exquis-
lite china added much to the beauty of the

PIERCE HAS THREE DEFENSES
TEXAS WANTS OIL MAGNATE ON
CHARGE OF PERJURY.
His Attorney Claims That the Statute
of Limitation Has Run.

Jefferson City, Mo.-H. Clay Pierce
is making three defenses to the
effort of the state of Texas to get him
there to answer to a charge of perjury
in the making of an alleged false affi-
davit to the effect that the Waters
Pierce Oil Co. was not a party to any
agreement in restraint OF trade.
Pierce's attorney, j. D. Johnson Of st.
Louis, has sent to the governor a brief
in support of his contention that the
requisition should not be honored.
Johnson, in a telephone conversation
with the governor, said he had three
defenses: That the affidavit was made
in 1901, and on it's face showed the
statute of limitations had rum; that
the grand jury when it returned the in
dictment had only the affidavit before
it and heard no witnesses; that Pierce
did not read the affidavit before sign
ing it, but merely signed it after he
had been written by his attorney.
Under the laws of Texas, the making
of a false affidavit is a felony, while
in Missouri it is only a misdemeanor.
The hearing before the governor on
tho requisition was set for Thursday.
Johnson will not appear in person be-
fore the governor, but will rest on the
brief he has sent. Attorney General
Hadley will act in an advisory capacity
to the governor.

Masonic Grand Lodge.

The grand lodge of Mississippi, F.
and A. NJ, met at Natchez with 400
delegates representing the 32o b
dinate lodges in the State.
L. Lake, of Grenada, aged 81 years,
the oldest Master Mason in the State,
was in attendance. He was raised to
the masters degree in 1888.
A resolution was adopted authorizing
the trustees to contract for the erection
of the Masonic Widows and Orphans
Home at Meridian. The building will
cost $35, 900, and the fund in hand is
little short of that sum. In addition
there is an endowment fund of $4,000
on hand for the maintenance OF the
home.
A recommendation that the grand
lodge make permanent the order orig
inally directed by Grand Master Mckay
against the issuance of appeals for as
sistance by lodges through the grand
lodge or grand secretary was made by
the grand master.
The election of officers resulted as
follows: H. C. Yawn, grand master; E.
J. Martin, senior grand warden; w. ii.
Clifton, junior grand warden; Rev. ).
A. B. Jones, grand chaplain; B. A. V.

MISSISSIPPI NEWS
Two-C Gent Mileage.

The Mississippi railroad commission
has issued an order requiring the rail-
roads of the State to adopt a 2-cent
passenger rate on the interchangeable
mileage basis. The order is to become
effective thirty days hence and is made
applicable to all roads, excepting the
Gulf and Ship Island, which claims
charter exemption from supervision OF
passenger rates. Several railroads
have signified their willingness to
adopt the rate without protest.
The commission also made an impor-
tant modification as regards c&h fares
by repeating the following clause OF the
circular issued Nov. 4, 1904: Railroads
are authorized to collect 4 cents per
mile from passengers paying fare to
conductors, except in cases where no
opportunity to purchase tickets has
been afforded by the road. For hive
miles or less, where the fare is paid to
the conductor, the charge may be 70
cents"
The repeal of this provision puts the
cash fare passenger On the same basis
as the person who has purchased a
ticket.

NEED OF STANDARD WEIGHTS.
Wheat Sold by 20 Different Measures
in Great Britain.

The advocates of the metric system
want no better justification than
tables just prepared for the year book
of the British Auctioneers' institute.
1t is learned from this that the price
of wheat is made and the cereal is
sold in 20 different ways in England,
Scotland and Wales.
1t is measured ~variously by the
quarter, comb, load, boil, bushel, bar
rel, hundredweight, GENITAL, windle
and hobbet. Further confusion is
caused by varying weights of a bushel
in different parts of the country.
A bon is three bushels in some
places and four and six in others.
There are similar absurd variations
in other weights and
For instance, a stone of meat Is
eight pounds, a stone of iron IA
pounds, a stone of cheese 16 pounds
and a stone of hemp 80 pounds.
There are seven different areas Of
the standard acre in Great Britain.
The vagaries of liquid measures are
equally bewildering.

The Paris of South America.

Buenos Ayres is 'the whole thing"
in Argentina. l know no country in
the world which is so dominated by
its capital, writes Albert Hale in The
Reader. If the traveller ome from
the interior after leaving behind the
splendors Of Andean scenery and
crossing the 500 miles of prairie, he
feels like a swimmer who has been q
long time under water and takes his
first deep breath of civilization when
he enters the city. l arrived at six
o'clock in the morning, before the
busy life of the harbor awoke. AS we
rolled along the broad water front and
up the Avenida Mayo, I said to myself,
81 must have taken the wrong steamer
or l am dreaming. Surely | am in
Europe" 1t was not that things
seemed European or that it was easy
to detect an imitation; it was Europe.
No amount of self-argument would
overcome this illusion; the asphalt
smelt as it does in Europe and was
cleaned in the European way; the
little trees grew in the tradition of
European culture, the buildings were
French, the safes, the news-stands, all
the lazy life of the early morning was
continental. -. No wonder a chatty
old French lady asked me at %dejeuner.
"How do you like Buenos Ayres? It's
Little Paris, isn't it?"
