NIGHT RIDERS
DESTROY BEDS
RAIDS IN MASON AND IN BROWN
COUNTY, OHiO.-KEN-
TUCKY BAND.

NASHVILLE, KY, May 3.-The to-
bacco beds of Ben Loude were Destroy
ed last night. He lives on small
farm west of here in a section of the
county where the Equity movement is
strong. His plants were doing well,
and it is thought that his beds were
about the only ones west of this city.
Several growers in Brown county,
Ohio, on the other side of the river,
lost their beds last night, and 1t is
stated that the same persons that de-
stroyed Loudes beds were instrument
tai in getting rid of those in Ohio.
A state official of Ohio is said to
have made a visit to Aberdeen, o., to
look over the country back of that
place, and upon his report will depend
whether or not armed guards will be
furnished. All the farms in that coun-
ty are now being guarded by private
citizens.

him, Peter and not merely him but all

! church the cross of Christ, for he
tempted the Savior as had the devil
upon the mount. With the cross Ia
ken away Christ is no longer the
Savior of poor miserable sinners, but

at from the divine and not from the
human standpoint.

not be overthrow or depopulated by
the process of death. Sixty genera

still here. Peter and the apostles and

did not take the church with them.

fgY JAMES ]. FINNEY0


In the presence of a splendid com
pany Of Methodists and many mem
bers Of other Christian denominations,
the beautiful new edifice being packed
to the limit, the Methodist church at
Cross Bridges was Friday formally
dedicated to the worship of Almighty
God. The sermon Of dedication was
preached by Bishop Hoss and the oc-
casion was one of the most suspicious
in the history of Methodism in Maury
county An audience that taxed all
the seating and standing room in the
church listened with rapt attention to
the magnificent address of Bishop
Hoss After the sermon and the exer-
cises were concluded the audience
went to the beautiful grove in the rear
of the church, where a bounteous bas-
ket dinner was served.
The exercises Friday marked the
dedication of one of the most COM
plete, attractive and ornate country
churches ever erected within the
bounds of the Tennessee Conference.
The church is a commodious and we'll
constructed brick edifice and is the
pride of every Methodist in the COM
munity 1t so happened that the dedi-
catory exercises took place on the first
anniversary of the laying of the cor
ner stone
Bishop Hoss for one hour and thir-
ty minutes preached with great power
It was a sermon such as the average
member hears but few times in life
The distinguished Bishop was in
spired and he preached with the pres
ence and the power of the Holy Spirit
upon him. Although many in the au-
dience were forced to stand during
the entire exercises of over two hours,
so rapt was the attention and so in
spring the effort of the speaker, that
not one stirred during this entire time.
Bishop Hoss may have preached
greater sermons than he did on this
occasion, but no Methodist present
had the good fortune to hear MIN,
and it is doubtful If stronger de-
Iiverance upon the vital principles or
the Christian religion could be made.
From beginning to end the sermon
breathed the spirit of the true faith;
it was splendid exposition OF the
vital principles upon which the church
militant stands; 1t was the sum total
of Christian faith as the Methodist
church understands and teaches them.
The sermon was appropriate to the
occasion, the theme being the true
church of God. It was sermon 10
which every broad minded Christian
concerned as to the vital and essen
tian features of his faith, can subscribe.
If it was doctrinal 1t was of the doc
trine of Methodsm, the doctrine
which, because It is SO broad and lib
eral. has made that church the ire
mendous power for the evangehzation
cf the world and the salvation or
souls that It has been for century
and half. The discourse was argu- i
mentative. but 1t was logical; every
2tatement was abundautly fortified by
scriptural authority
Nothing was said in disparagement
of any church Of Gods people, bur
with broad Christian love and chart
ty. with that spirit of liberality and
tolerance which is the chief claim and
the great bulwark of Methodism Bish-
op Hoss disputed the claims of other

The remarkable advancement that is
being made in automobiles along utility
lines is simply amazing. One of the lat
est and most interesting achievements
is the perfection of automobile fire fight
ers. Quite a number of the large cities
are now adding them to their freight
ing equipment and their practical value
has been already very satisfactorily
proved.
The illustration herewith represents
one of the latest and most complete
auto-fre engines yet built 1t was de-
signed by f. S. Craig, chairman of the
Board of Public Works, Long Branch,
Cal, and built by the Thomas B. JEFF
ferry & Company at the Rambler factory,
Kenosha, Wisconsin.
After many exhaustive tests of auto
mobiles, the Rambler construction was
decided upon by Mr. Craig as being best
suited to his apparatus, and his order
placed for the auto-fire engine from his
design.
The motor is the regular 4-cylinder
Rambler type-so is the tire equipment
The car has a guaranteed speed of 80
miles an hour under a weight of 3,00O
pounds. 1t is fitted with S0-gallon chem
ical tanks, $50 feet of hose, also chem

There are no less than 20 wooden
mills within a radius of 100 miles of
Cmcago and these mills alone will
consume an enormous quantity of wool
annually, and which wool they will
prefer to secure at Chicago rather
than to go to Boston and Philadelphia
for it as has been the custom for many
years. By stopping the wool at Chi
cago the grower will save large sums
in freight charges annually.
While it is too late to inaugurate
the movement on large scale this
season, another year warehouses with
capacity of 100,000,000 pounds of
wool will be erected in Chicago, and

tional association to fill it and hold
