WOMEN TRAPQERGY
BEWARE OF THEIR wILEs, WARNS
 CHICAGO MINISTER.
Sells Divinity Students They>are Lambs Of Purity and, Says f Women are Lying In
 wait for Them.

{ Chicago, March l6.-An elaboration of a recent warning to the University of Chicago divinity students tos pe- ware duydnE their ministry of the wiles of woman, the Rev. w. E. bar< ton. Congregational pastor, todaN explained certain remarks on the SUD feet made by himself to Prespyte- rian ministers conference yesterday.
 T myself" says he. have known number of most diabolical plans to en- trap and ruin men of God who were doing in entire innocence what tney deemed to be their duty. These piots are by no means uncommon In down town churches"
 Rev. MT. Carton had drawn at the conference a picture of preachers with out guile beset by designing women seeking whom they might devour. He declared the average minister lamp fo>purity and e child so Tar as knowt- edge of the world was toncerned.
 For this lamb, he said, countless wo- men were lying in walt. ready instru. ments of the evil one to shear him or his robe of righteousness and hold him up to his flock and the scomns public as a wolf in sheep's clothing.
 "I should like to say that l believe that most of the clergymen to be good men, but many good men are -fndis- erect" said Rev. Mir. Barton. in TUT ther explanation of his remarks. The same may be said of many women church members. A clergyman should . 90 order his life and so safeguard hts relations with tne women of his con gregation that no breath of suspicion should ever be heard"
 One of the ministers who heard MT Barton's lectures said that he invari- ably had his wife answer the teie- phone because a woman can spy ou' evil motives in another woman more rapidly than a man.

si. Hopkins at The Grand.

With a display of striped stockings, enormous pigtails, plaintive voice and truly magnificent manner of getting into everybody's way. Sis Hopkins in the person of Rose Melville entertained a small audience of Montgomerians at The Grand Tuesday night.
 It was the old time Sis. the Sis that used to fill houses all over the South and West with good audiences. But perhaps the taste for the character has dwindled to almost nothing after ten years on the stage. Last nights au- dience showed that Montgomery was not at all enthusiastic about It. W hat there was of the audience appreciated the antics of the awkward girl on the stage and her development to so- phisticated person who set tansie in- vented by a good looking william to rights. ,,
 And the company supporting Miss Melville, who is an extremely clever woman, was about on a par with the lines of the offering itself. Take MISS Melville from the cast and the remain der of the company would hardly draw an audience sufficient to fill the front rows of any theatre.
 The next attraction at The Grand will be Nat Goodwin and Edna Good rich in The Master Hand" on Thurs day night of next week.

DIRECTORS MEET
COMMERCIAL CLUB SECRETARY.
 SHIP IS DISCUSSED.
Boosting of Clubs Finances Comes Us
 But Nething Definite Decided Many New Members Added ~ s. tn Roll,

It may be that the army of the un- employed is far greater than the good people suspect, 6r perhaps 1t is that the secretaryship of the Commercial Club is most desirable post but whatever the reason, there are 4oo or more applications received by Presi- dent Ball of the Club from men, young and old, desirous of succeeding G Grosvenor Dave.
 } The directors met last night to dis cuss the secretary matter. along with other things pertaining to the good of the order. But one look at the formidable stack of letters. recom- mendations. photographs. ct cetera, daunted even the most zealous or the progressive body. It Is estimated that the number of the documents~exceeas the 400 mark by far
 There will be a process of elimina- tion by which to solve the problem Of the secretaryship, for committee, consisting of President Fred s. Ball and two others, to be appointed by him. twill delve into the sea of cores pondence, select from the four hun dred odd about ten or dozen of the most likely. condense the dozen to probably two or three, ask this trio to come to Montgomery to undergo per SOnai 1nspeCtiOn anu to huhc eh0 AAoa selection after the inspection.

AssureAly the task of the special committee is not to be the most enjoyable in the world
 Besides casting fearsome glance at the stack of applications. the di- recHors discussed ways and means as to boosting the finances of the club. SC tha tthe body may be enabled to car ry on its work upon wider planes There was nothing of definiteness ar rived at but the proposition of assess ments. or the solicitation of subscrip- tions for the good work was consld- cred

Original Indietmest Quashed, Hut .
 New One Returned.
 Jesup. Ga. March 18.-There were two sensa tions today in the trial or W. B. Lyons and his son. Archie Ly- ons, charged with the killing of Flem- ing Smith.
 A motion of defendants counsel to quash the indictment on the ground that 1t was signed by one member of the grand jury not a resident of the county, was sustained. The grand jury was still in session and within two hours a new indictment had been returned.
 when court adjourned five jurors had been selected. It was during the examination of talesmen that the big sensation of the day was sprung. Le Roy Walker had been accepted as a juror by States counsel, when w. w. Bennett, of counsel for the defense. called A. L. Miller to the stand to tes- tify as to alleged statements made by the prospective juror tending to show bias. Miller drew note book from his pocket, which he referred to in answering questions of defense's coun- sel. He said that Walker had talked with him about the case and had said that Lyons and his son ought to be hanged.
 On cross-examination, Witness Mil Ter amitted that the note book had been given him by Attorney W. W. Bennett, who also furnished him with a list of questions to be put to pro spective jurors. for which. Miller said, Bennett agreed to pay him $4.50 per day, and he added that he had al
