MANY HEAR JONES
EVANGELIST SPEAKS TO LARGE
 CONGREGATIONS.
Delivers Two Forcibfe Sermons On the Necessity of Seixfng Ones Op- portunfty When It Presents
 Itself.

Rev Bob Jones again addressed thousands of auditors in the City Audi torium yesterday morning and evening, these being the first of the week day scrvices during his stay In the city. He again charmed his hearers by his simple words and intense earnestness Fully 60e persons were assembled in the auditorium yesterday morning to listen to the services. despite the fact that many families are moving and Monday is a very busy day at the shops.
 Mir Jones took as ms theme 'oppor- tunity on Wheels" taking his text from Acts viii; 30. where the Holy Book tells of Phillip running after the enunch who was riding In his chariot and questioning him on his reading of the Prophet Isaiah
 MT. Jones made plain. forcible talk on the duty of every man to grasp the present opportunity. to run after 1t and not let it escape him. but to grasp it while there is yet chance. for another may not be presented.
 At the night services there was a lar- ger attendance. Over 500 additional chairs had been placed on the main floor of the auditorium and the large hall
 Mr. Jones took as his text Acts k; g.: And as Jesus passed forth from thence he saw man named Matthew sitting at the receipt of custom; and He saith unto him. follow me. And he arose and followed Him."
 MT. Jones spoke forcibly on having the courage to acknowledge sin, and not caring for what the world thought. His sermon was in the nature of talk on courage and the honor and pride of honorable scars received in the battle for the right.
 The audience was intensely interested throughout and at the close of the ser- vices several advanced to the altar and expressed their determination to be- come Christians.
 MT. Jones. at the close of the services. said that he had never started 8 se- ries of services in any city with such an suspicious opening. and that 1t was his hope that before the week was ended the good begining woula be in- creased and that hundreds would have presented themselves at the altar.
 Services will be heid at the auditor. ium in the mornings at 10 o'clocK ana in the evenings at 7:30 o'clock. and not o'clock as previously announced.

 ness--City Voters Oppose
 Prohibition.
 Tuscaloosa, Sept. 30--(Special. )-Fif- teen out of twenty eight precincts have been heard from here. and so far the prohibition movement is AS ahead in the count of votes polled at the cleo tion today
 The city of Tuscaloosa gave the dis pensary 120 majority, while Northport, just across the river. gave prohibition S4 majority. Only two beats out of the number heard from have given the dispensary a majority. It is estimat- ed that the dispensary will be defeated by from 600 to TOO majority.
 The election was to determine whe- ther Tuscaloosa County Is to have pro- hibition or that the whiskey is to be sold under the new Moody dispensary law.
 All the morning voters thronged about the polls but the election passed very quietly. Quite a feature this morning was the appearance of 200 school children from Northport. They marched in a body over the town and around the court house where the booth was located. cheering for prohi- bition and waving their white flags | of temperance. At the Methodist Church the women held an all day prayer meeting It began at 10 o'clock and lasted until after the polls closed {.

The WATCH CAME BACK.
Luck of Man Who Met a Pickpocket
in Park Row.

H aving his watch stolen from him
and offered for sale back to him in an
hour was what happened to a friend
of mine the other day when crowds
gathered at the newspaper bulletin
boards waiting for news of the Thaw
jury" said a citizen to a New York
Sun reporter. 1T happened this way:
AN old friend of mine was stand
ing among others waiting for news OF
the Thaw jury when suddenly he felt
a twitch at his watch pocket and his
watch was gone. Not being sure OF
his ground he kept his loss to himself
and walked away from the crowd.
After transa eting a little business
in the neighborhood he turned toward
home. Remembering that he needed
a drink he stepped into saloon.
He was in the midst of his story,
telling the sympathetic bartender OF
his experience, with his back to the
door, whsn a voice back of him broke
into the conversation, ordered a drink
and asked the drink mixer if he had
any use for a watch, mentioning the
fact that there was one to be had
| cheap.
The barkeeper, having my friend
in mind, asked to see the watch and
| turned it over to my friend, who i'm
mediateIy recognized it as his. Turn
| ing around he inquired how much he
asked for the timepiece. The thiei
recognized his late victim and made
a bolt for the door. taking good care

NEW YORK LETTER.


New York, July 24-Southern Ia

ket 1t had a sensational advance Of
over four points. The buying was
even more aggressive than that Of yes
terday. Tho Street % man had the
tip that the dividend would be in
creased. Predictions were freely made
of placing the stock upon a six per cent
basis; some enthusiasts going 50 far
as to express the opinion that the divi-
dend would be al the rate OF per
cent.
1t is pointed out by some shrewd
traders that Southern Pacific should sell
as high as Atchison Common which
pays six per cent and is selling around

Although the tone Of the market con-
tinues DUH, professionals and room
traders take advantage Of any good
news which appears to hold up their
particular specialties. Union Pacific
was marked up a couple Of points on
the same class Of buying which was
so noticeable in Southern Pacific. It is
thought In the street that the Harri-
man interests are behind the present
upward movement.

Shelters were the chief features. Each
scored d fair gain for the day.
1t is said there is large short inter-
est throughout the market generally.
Today's action was q mild attempt to
cause the bears some anxiety and make
them cover at the higher quotations.
The market as a whole scored fair
gains throughout the list with indIca-
lions pointing to still further rallies to-
morrow.
