SPECIAL SESSION NECESSARY
In Case Clerks and Committeeman are Not Legally Allowed to Work After Adjournment of
 Legislature.

Special to the News
 Little Rock, June 10.-It is now generally believed that the opinion of Attorney General Kirby will be adverse to commit teemen and clerks of the recent legislature, on payment of war rants for work done since the ad- journment of the legislature.
 If this is done there will be a strong effort made to induce Governor Pindall to call a special session of the legislature for the purpose of enacting a law auth orizing the work, for it is claimed by many that some important bills, including the general ap- propriation bill, will be invali- dated otherwise,

and It's American Day
of Establishment.
REV. r. w. PATTON HERE UPON
SPECIAL WORK AND HE WILL
MEET CHURCHMEN TONIGHT IN
CHRIST cHURcH-SPokE MOST
ENTERTAININGLY AND CON-
ViNCiNGLY LAST SUNDAY.

A committee composed of the rector
of Christ church and prominent Epis
| cOpal laymen, has called a meeting OF
! churchmen in Christ church for this
/ evening at s O'Clock, to have an in
| formal conference with Rev. R. w
| Patton, of Virginia, in the direction
/ of increased interest in the work OF
the church at home and elsewhere.
Mr.. Patton preached at the morning
| service, at Christ church. last Sun
| day. making a strong and fOrceful ap-
| peal to the men of the church In
behalf of the Mems Thank offering.
in commemoration of the tTi-centen-
nial of the church in America, and for
missionary work in foreign lands. In
the evening, he preached at st.
Johns church, Warrington.
MIR. Pattons appeal was not only
eloquent and powerful. but it was,
above all things. valid, an argument
with stubborn facts for its basis, and
presented in a most striking manner.
II was a discourse to set people to
enquiring and thinking. Mr. Patton
is forceful and lucid. earnest and sim
cere. and, above all else, practical.
He spoke of the missionary work,
especially in China and Japan, show
ing the wonderful advance made by
Christianity in these countries ana
noting the remarkable factor it has
been in their development during the
last fifty years. He pointed out the
fact that, as modern facilities of COM
merce and interchange of commerce
are increasing, We are being brought
into closer and closer contact with
these peoples; that contact means as
sociation, and that as, in a measure,
we become like TO that with which
we associate. SO these OrieLtals, as
they continue to come into closer
touch with us. will inevitably bring
with them their religions unless we
forestall them by giving to them now
the true religion. the law of the love
cf God.
Mr.. Patton is nephew of Bishop
Williams. cf Virginia, the first mis-
sionary to Japan from this country.
There is now in Japan, especially
among the upper classes, A tendency
to cast off the worn-out garments of
the pagan creeds, and, rather than
an acceptance Of the true religion,
there is a strong leaning towards
agnosticism. 1t is now, while the
times are ripe, Mr.. Patton pointed
out. that we need to send mission
aries TO these people and to give to
them the bread of life.
II is impossible, in so brief A sum-
mary, to give any adequate conception
of the remarkable arraignment of
facts. which were brought to prove
the crying need of answering the plea
of dying souls: Come over and
help us.
Mr.. Patton quoted from an interest
ing article recently appearing in the
Atlantic Magazine. written by one in
authority, which goes TO prove the
erroneous conception prevalent to-
day, of the missionary work in China
and of the attitude of the Boxers, dur
ing the uprising. to the Christians in
that country.

years at hard labor in the penitentiary
for forgery and uttering forged paper.
During the time that Judge Avery
was pleading for light sentence and
the remarks of Judge Beggs, Andrews
remained silent and when sentence
was pronounced not a muscle moved
in his face nor was there a single
change in expression. He turned and
walked back to his seat moment af-
terwards, and while he entered no
complaint the smile which had been
conspicuous a few moments before
was not again visible during the after
noon, hut in its stead there was an
expression of seriousness.
Cary L. Fulton.
When called TO the bar, Fulton was
accompanied by his counsel C. Mo-
reno Jones and Geo. T. Morgan. The
former asked the court TO be lenient
with the prisoner. saying that he was
Il young man and that he had gotten
into bad company, which was the
prime reason that he had gotten into
trouble. and that. furthermore. he was
physically unfit to do manual labor.
They presented certificates from ply
sicianS to this effect.
Judge Beggs, in speaking TO the
prisoner. told him that he was a man
