Close.

FIVE MORE SERMONS.

The Ptle Conference at the Bap-
list church began the second week
with three great meetings Saturday.
Sunday morning Rev. J. S. Rodg-
ers preached on the Millennium to a
crowded house. In the afternoon
Rev. ]. C. Massee spoke to an audi
ence Of men only and at night
preached a powerful sermon from
the text, Remember Jesus Christ. F"
The night meeting was the biggest
yet held. The main auditorium and
the Sunday School room were both
filled and many were in the gallery
in the east end of the building. AL
so for the first time the new Baraca
Hall, the addition to the north of
the Sunday school room, was opened
and the overflow crowd was seated
in this new hall.
, The song service closed with solo
by Pastor Millard A. Jenkens, "The
Old Fireside, sung by request. The
singing of this pathetic song in the
rich, well-trained voice of the pas
tor moved many in the audience to
tears.
DR.. Massee then preached a pow
erful revival sermon, holding the
closest attention of the vast audi
ence. His magnetic style in the
pulpit and his thrilling flights of
eloquence made a profound impress
sion. Several professions followed
the appeal at the close of the SER
mon.
Yesterday was another busy day
with five sermons.
DR.. w. A. Nelson, Mr.. Frank L..
Mallary and DR.. w. H. Smith left
Saturday. Yesterday DR.. Lloyd T.

City where the body is being held.
The young man had been in the
Plateau valley for the past year, COM

years of age and a young man of eX-

past he has been employed on the

One day last week, probably on
Thursday, Chase, while at his work,
was bitten on the face by a Buffalo
gnat, one of those common little in
sects which are said to be very num-
erous and troublesome in the Plateau

the high point of the cheek bone on
the right side. The bite was very an

times. He went on about his work
the next day, Friday, his cheek was
all inflamed and he felt quite sick,

LARGEST PASSENGER
YARDS IN THE WORLD
Pennsylvania Railroad Begins ENca-
tion ON site of six Million
Dollar Terminal.

NEW YORK. July 1G.=Across the
East river, within mile and a half
of Manhattan, in Long Island city,
work has already begun on the new
Pennsylvania yards, These yards Will
be an essential adjunct to the Penn
sylvania terminal which is under
construction on Thirty-third street
and Seventh, Eighth and Ninth ave
nues in Manhattan, and will be the
largest passenger car yards in the
world.
The yard will vary from a quarter
two-thirds of a mile in width and
Will be two miles long. 1t will give
yardage accommodation to 200 cars
with the possibility of expansion The
undertaking will cost $G,OOO,OOO. ir-
respective of the cost of the real es-
tate proper.
The area to be used for the yard is
a sweep of country stretching paral-
lei to and principally on the south
side of the present Long Island rail
road tracks, and beginning about a
half mile out from the station. But
this 500 acres is either hill or swamp
land. The hin to the southeast. so
feet high and a mile long, known as
Sunnyside, must be graded to "A level
/ feet above the sea. To accomplish
this 100000 cubic yards of mater.
ial viii have to be eXcavated. 1t will
be composed principally of gravel and
sand, and will be used in the marshes.
It so happens that 2,50O,O0O cubic
yards of hin is almost exactly the
amount which will be required in the
latter work.
This work of cutting down and
building up is the work which has
just begun. Great steam shovels
are gnawing away at the side of the
hill. Deep in the steel teeth grit and
grind; the big steel derricks which
support them turn on their axes and
massive shovel swings with its
load over a car of the waiting dummy
train.
Just two of these shoveruls fill one
car. Then the train is drawn away.
the next car is filed and so on goes
the work.

and he was unable to proceed with his
work. His fellow employees took him
to camp and as speedily as possible
a physician was summoned. 1t was
found that the young man was suf-
fering from blood poison in a most
yirulent form brought about by the
irritation of the bite of the little
gnat.
Everything possible was done to
save the young man but his condition
grew rapidly worse. his sufferlngs
were frightful and yesterday after
noon he died in horrible agony.
The remains were taken to Plateau
City last night and there packed in
ice awaiting the coming of the under
taker who reached there some time
this afternoon.
The parents of the young man re-
siding in Washington county, Kansas
were notified yesterday and are on
their way to this county. 1t is thought
that they will take the body back with
them to the old home for burial. 1t
is said that the family is a very prom
inent one.
The deceased was unmarried. He
was a fine looking speciment of
