There are now three working Sun

Baptist and Christian. just short
while ago there was but one We are
moving on right lines. Now the OBJ
ject of this little note is to call out the
enrolment Of each school and the
average attendance. BY this we will
see whether our peope as rule are
attending these Lords day services
and reaping the benefits thereof. It.
seems that it would be delightful
task and a Tabor of love-" for each
father and mother on the Sunday
mornings to help their little ones get
ready, and with them say, Come,
children, let US go to Sunday schools
Such training by precept and example
will do good and help save our boys
and girls from being Sunday oilers.
and loungers, here, there and yonder,
on the streets and other places whero
they get no good at all. This record
of three schools speaks volums for us
as to our moral and spiritual uplift.
But the load can be lightened if all
will take hold and hold on and never
let go till old age or death releases
the worker. Up then and be doing for
the day is far spent with some, and
the night of death draweth nigh, when
no man can work.

NEWPORT OFFICER SHOT
w. G. McDougal Shot Down in Saloon
by Drunken Man

Newport, March 14.-W. G. Me-
Dougal chief of police of Newport, lies
mortally wounded from gunshot
wounds inflicted by N L. Albright, d
carpenter, last midnight. The shots
were intended for Peter Anderson, a.
saloonkeeper.
Trouble first arose when Anderson
refused to sell to Albright any liquor,
because he was drunk and boisterous,
and called Officer McDougal, who ar
rested him, but did not lock him up,
on his promise to go home.
Albright went to his home, but only
to secure a double-barreled shotgun,
and returned to the vicinity of the
saloon, declaring he would shoot the
proprietor. When he reached the
corner, the saloonkeeper and McDugaI
were standing in front of the saloon
Albright raised his gun and, saying,
"Now I've got you both, - fired both
barrels in quick succession. The offi-
GERS back was turned to the man, and
he received both charges from the
