kenova Nj. r.. church. Some who
have been residents here tor years,
consider it the greatest spiritual
awakening the city has ever enjoy

tents at the altar each night. The
Methodists are now in the seventh
week of the great work, with no
signs of the end. Two meetings
have been held every day for six
weeks, four weeks in cottages in
the afternoon and two weeks in the
church. The church has been crowd.
ed nightly, the altar for weeks be-
ing filled with penltents. One night
accommodations had to be made for
over thirty penitents by adding
chairs, as the crowds were so great
IL was almost impossible to do the
work with any degree of comfort.
Some Of the meetings were contin-
ued till midnight, and several re-
markable convictions and conver-
sions have taken place. With those
who were reclaimed, and the addi-
ton of young converts, make more

church. As usual number will
join other churches. Several chill.
dren will also be received into the
church, and a number of others will
no doubt join. A baptismal service
will be held as soon as arrangements
can be made. The meeting will con-
tinue another week and all services
hereafter will be evangelistic.

Hon. William Howard Taft, president.
elect of the United States, was made "a
Mason at sight" in Cincinnati last week.

OF the Grand Lodge of Ohio, Free and
Accepted Masons,. that this honor las

parts OF the country. The chief officers
OF the various national Masonic bodies as
well as the Grand Master Of the Grand
Lodge of almost every state in the Un-

200 subordinate lodges of Ohio were in

A Body Blow to the Trusts.

The decision rendered by the SUI
preDe court of the United States
last week in the Wall Paper com
pany case in which it was held that
the company could not collect a
debt of some $55, 900 because il
was trust, an illegal combination
In restraint of trade, was the most
far reaching decision as well as the
most effective blow that has been
struck at the trusts since these great
combinations of capital began to be
formed. The logic and law of ;he
Shedding is a simple, common-sepse
proposition. IL a trust is an illega' :,
Al unlawful combination, then it
has no standing in a court Of justice
and cannot there enforce it's con-
tracts or collect its debts. If this
holding is adhered to and persisted
in and folio we'd by the inferior
courts Of the country as it undoubt
edly will be, then the trusts have
had their day. They must go out
Of business unless they are legalized
by legislation, state and national.
If they can't enforce their contracts
and collect their debts they cennot
do business Hampshire Review.
