THE CHURCHES

At the First Baptist church the pas tor, Rev. Orville Coats. preached yes terday morning on The Universal In- heritance of the Believer"
 christianity brings to men the larger view and the broader vision. It has, from the beginning been the emancipator both of the bodies and the minds of men. When Satan took our Lord up into an exceedingly high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in moment of time, he was only doing with an evil purpose what the religion of Jesus does for us with good purpose. What the devil pretended to be able to give Jesus actually imparts to his follow CTS. When Paul found the Corinthian church divided by controversy over the relative superiority of different teachers he met the difficulty by di- verting their attention to something more important. Therefore, let no one glory in men. For aIs things are yours; whether Paul or Appollos. or Cephas. or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; and yet are Christ's and Christ is Gods The early settlers of Massachusetts built their homes and churches upon the hilltops. Fever and malaria, flood and savages lurked in the valleys. There was safety on high ground. Their action is a lesson for every Christian. It is well for us to build upon the high ground. Upon the foundation of the universal inner itance of the believer We find such a hilltop from which to look out this morning.
 The text suggests sciious dan ger. that of spiritual shortsightedness. Like the Corinthians We are apt to find ourselves quarrelling with insig-

A PECULIAR CASE.
Railroad Is Sued for Killing Turkeys
 on the Track.
200 SUITS JUST IN FRIDAY

Florence, June 15.-(Special.) )-Judge Charles P. Almon of the Lauderdale county circuit court has been called upon problem and one which has never before been raised in any state in the union.
 Seven turkeys owned by M. F. Jack son, were killed on the track of the Louisville and Nashville railroad a few miles north of Florence and the owner brought suit against the road for $1O damages.
 The question was raised as to whether a turkey is an animal or an obstruction in the sense of the statute which re- quires the alarm whistle to be sounded and breaks put down and every possible means employed to stop the train when an animal or other obstruction appears on the track
 A somewhat similar case was cited by the defense and the opinion of Judge Wilkes of the Tennessee supreme court by railroad train. The decision in question recites that birds have wings to move them quickly from places of danger and it is presumed they will use them; violent presumption in the case of a goose-an animal which ap- pears to be loath to stoop from it's dig nlty to escape. a passing train. But the line must be drawn somewhere and we are of the opinion that the goose-is the proper bird to draw 1t at.'
 Judge Almon, in his decision avoided the dangerous point as to whether tur- keys are animals or Instructions as con- templated in the statute, and gave the verdict in favor of the defendant on the ground that the plaintiff did not show recklessness or common law negligence on the part of the defendant.

In this there was over $100 in notes of small denomination, but all were Confederate. Then there were a score of photographs of men, women and children and one of dog. Finally,

Newspapers of the west seem to be rais- ing a great hue and cry over the fact that the Goldfeld Consolidated, the, big mining company In Goldfield, has got into the clutches of Wall street. Some papers state that the Morgans now con- trol the Goldield Consolidated. All this talk arises from the fact that some time ago, when the Goldfeld Consolidated
 needed some money to take over the combination mine, Senator Nixon, the president of the company, borrowed $1 ,o00, GOO from B. M. Baruch, a member of the New York stock exchange. Senator Nixon wanted to pay MT. Baruch a large premium on this loan, but the New York capitalist said that that was not

WAS NOT A MURDER
Opinion of Mysterious Death at

VICTIM NOT YET IDENTIFIED
Apparently Cut Own Throat and Then

Alpha, H.. April 15.-(Argus Spe'
cial)-The Henry county authorities
who have Investigated the death of the
man whose body was found beside the
track of the Burlington road near Op'
HEN last week have about come TO
the conclusion that it was not a case
of murder or hand-to-hand tiSht with
knives. as was later believed.
A close examination of the body
shows that the jUGular vein was not
cut. and that the man was undoubtel
ly struck by a train. His skull and
jaw bone were fractured.
Circumstances point to delibera c
attempt at suicide, first by cutting the
throat with the razor that was found
near pool of blood some distanca
from where the body was found and ii
ter by deliberately standing on the
track in front of an OncOmiug train.
still an Unknown.
The mans identity has not been G
tablished. The initials C. NJ. are tai
tooed on one of the arms, a handksr
chief in one of the pockets bears the

years has undergone no change. There
were big books at the Dcginning-there
are big books now, folios and quartos,
although fewer than then; but, big or
little, they open in the same way, at
the same side, stitched and covered the
