The Normal.

The opening exercises were
held IN the Chapel with Dr.D. G.
Hull director; Rev. W. E. M.
Brogan, of Starkville, read a
lesson from the Bible; prayer
by Rev. Morris, of Atlanta, Ca.
DR.. j. G. Hardy, President, de-
livered a we'll timeed, cordial ad
dress Of welcome to visitors
which was we'll received and
made every visitor feel thorough
ly at home, and Rev. r. A. N.
Wilson. of Batesville, delivered
the address to the convention Of
teachers, consisting of several
hundred present, a representa-
tive body greatly interested in
their work.
Mr.. Wilson is not only an en-.
tertaining, but highly instruc-
tive speaker and an orator Of
the first order.
He is to-date along educa-
tional lines and everything else
for the material advancement Of
our state.
We wish it possible for every.
body of the state to have heard
this thoughtful. learned and dis,
tinguished gentlemen. He said
that it made his blood flow faster,
as it ought every Mississipian,
to visit the A. & M. c., and see
what Mississippi has done and
is doing for her boys through it's
president and faculty.
No one can conceive the scope
and magnitude of Mississippi's
great college without seeing 1t.
It has done a great work. but
it will accomplish greater things,
it is in it's infancy, so to speak,
yet.
It is the duty, as we conceive
it, for every good, loyal citizen
to uphold the hands Of the pres
ident in his work in this great in
stitutiOn. No man can afford to
oppose education and perfection
has not been attained, nor will it
be in this life.
Mr.. Wilson's speech was most
enthusiastically applaunded to
the echo. DR.. Hull suggested a
rising vote of thanks, be tender

before the motion could be put,
indicating how we'll 1t was re-
ceived. It was fine address.
We would suggest, were it a
proper thing to do, that at the
next opening OF the next session
of the College that DR.. Hardy
invite Mr.. Wilson to be present
and deliver an address to the
young men of the college, the
second or third day. It would
be worth the while to every
young man who would be SO for
tunate to hear the address.
Quite number of teachers
came in on the noon train Tues
day and the indications are that
the Normal will prove the best
In it's history at the College.
We wish all most pleasant and
profitable time; that all will take
advantage of President Hardy's
invitation, feel at home and see
as much of the grounds, build
I'ings. cattle ETC., as possible,
which will be objects of educa-
ton that each can impart to
their pupils and the public gen.
orally who may feel an interest,
and all do.

"JOY ride"
Ended Quite DlSaSterOuSly For OC.
CupantS OF Automobile

Another exploit of the "sons of rest"
turned out disastrously Wednesday
morning. Five Of the young men be-
longing to the order were joy riding
in an automobile, instead of freight
train, near Fredericktown about ten
thirty o'clock and were running at
lively clip when an elevated bridge
was sighted by the driver, about one
hundred feet in advance. He immed-
lately showed on the brake which alb
solutely refused to respond and the
front wheels Of the machine struck the
elevation and threw the young men up
against the top of the machine. Two
Of these men were unfortunate enough
to have the bridge of their noses strike
on the very same piece of wood In the
top of the machine, one just after the
other. The noses were badly "peeled"
but aside from this there was no other
injuries sustained by any of the occu-
pants of the automobile. The injuries
were dressed at neighboring farm
house and the homeward journey was
begun,

ASSURED
Is The HiaWalha Assembly
For The Season OF 1910
At Lake HiaWdthd Park As In
Former Years
Citizens Association Of MI.
Vernon Prevails
Upon Board To Hold The
Assembly Here
The Very Best Program viii
Be Secured

Hiawatha Assembly for 1910 Is now
an assured fact.
The Assembly board met in this ci-
ty Tuesday in conference with COM
mittee of the Citizens's Association,
and in view of the genuine interest
manifested by the Association, and
its willingness to throw its influence
in support of the assembly, 1t was de-
cided to take the unusual risk involv.
ed in such late beginning.
The uncertainty as to the disposi-
tion of the park has been an obstacle
hard to surmount, but in view of state
ments of Mr.. Kachelmacher and the
Citizens Association, the Assembly
board assumed the risk and will spare
neither cost nor labor to make this
the best program of the fourteen
years of the assembly's stay in our
city.
The interest of the Citizens Asso-
citation was the determining factor
in the matter, had it not been
for the persistent efforts of the Asso-
citation IN behalf of the assembly, and
the assurances Of moral support, and
material support on the part of many
Of its constituents, there would have
been no assembly this year.
In backing up the assembly with It's
prestige the Citizens Association has
pracucally committed the citizenship
of Mt. Vernon to the loyal support of
the assembly, and will expect genu-
inc helpful interest on the part of all
who appreciate the worth of this
great Chautauqua.
1t Is greatly desired that Mount
Vernon shall have the best of every
thing, and surely here is an institu
ton which means much to the moral
and cultural life of our people, so let
everybody "boost" the Hiawatha Lake
Assembly from today until the gates
close behind the last session.

Prevented Her
Lively Scene At One OF The
Local Hotels

There was considerable excitement
around one of the local hotels Tues
day evening when one of the table
mattresses decided to run away with
a young man, whose home is in Fred
ericktown, and be united in marriage.
The mother and brother of the young
girl appeared on the scene and live
ly encounter ensued. The girl made an
attempt to assault her aged mother
and the police were caiIed to the
scene. The brother finally secured his
sister and marched her home. 1t is
claimed that the man the girl wanted
to marry has sued for a divorce, but
has not yet been allowed the same by
the court.

OF Charles Foster By United
States Authorities
At CGntGrburg On Charge Of
BOOtlegglOg
Turned Over To Authorities
At Columbus

For the past several years, the res
idents OF the village of Centerburg
have been In state of uncertainty
and dread, owing to the presence of
certain number Of people who inhablt
their town, but now, their minds are
some what relieved since the United
States revenue officer, Galloway COM
pleted his several days work in and
about Centerburg Tuesday evening,
and caused the arrest of Charles Fos-
ter, who has for long time been sus-
picioned of the charge of bootlegging.
At one time previous the marshal of
the town attempted to arrest him
when he and his brother resorted to
violent means in order to prevent the
arrest and as a result the marshal
was badly beaten and was after that
time, practically helpless. Although
the merchants of Centerburg have
been anxious to have Foster taken into
custody, they have been afraid to tes.
tify against him for their own person
al safety, but the United States badge
worn by Officer Galloway served to
scare the man to such degree that
the arrest was simple matter. He
was ordered to appear before Mayor
Best of Centerburg Wednesday morn.
ing, at which time, he was turned over
to the United States authorities and
taken to Columbus.

there Is a Christ. He urged that we
owe Christ to the world, and the
world to Christ, and that the outlook
for evangelizing the world in this
generation is bright, and that the
laymen should appreciate the oppor-
tunity at hand.
The second speaker was DIR. w. r.
Funk, of Dayton, who with great force
and by splendid presence discussed
the topic, winning the World;
Mans job" He said this movement
is moving multitudes is fulfilling pro.
phecy, that this is the brightest day
in the worlds history. The simple
proposition of Jesus, challenges the
greatest minds and is that upon which
the very foundation of life depends
and Is the hope of the world. He
urged that spreading this gospel is
the manifest job of the church today.
With wonderful power Mr.. Funk told
of the downward pull of the nations
that are without Christ and that Je-
sus is the only upward life and for
this reason the heather nations are
not going to rise unless this gospel is
carried to them. The vast task of car
rying the gospel to the 625 millions
who are not yet evangelized is task
so vast as to attract the strongest
men. In the face of all this, it was
urged, that we sit still and hardly so
much as stir ourselves to destroy the
contending forces of the devil. He
told of the mighty force Of heather
religions and that nothing short of the
gospel of Christ would enable these
people to break with their sins and
superstitions. He concluded his re-
marks by telling from illustrations the
great force of the gospel upon the
lives of native heather.
Following this Chairman Litton an
nounced that the day sessions We'd
nesday were open to every one, men
and women, free but that nominal
charge of 25c would be made in the
evening, to unregistered delegates.

Which Is Being Held In The
City On Wednesday
Two Fine Addresses Given
At The Banquet
Telling Scope Of The
Missionary Movement

Now the Laymen's Missionary
Movement Convention Is on with
great power and interest.
Promptly at the appointed hour z
o'clock Tuesday evening the conven-
tion opened with the singing Of "On-
ward Christian Soldiers Marching as
to War;" by 2S0 men.
The invocation was said by DR.. G.
A. Reeder and after a splendid din
ner served by the ladies Of the M. P.
church and a rare concert by the M.
e. s. S. orchestra, Chairman Litton
made an announcement or two and
introduced Mr.. F. l.. Fairchild, one Of
Mount Vernons leading Christian
laymen, who presided and introduced
the two speakers of the evening. Mr..
Fairchiid said that it was with no lit
tie pleasure that he hailed the dawn
ing of this new day, when the gospel
light is breaking into the darkest cor
ners of the whole world. 1t was fur
ther stated as matter of no little
pleasure and interest that he noted
the getting together of the great
Protestant churches of the world in
the interest of their common Lords
Kingdom.
President j. Knox Montgomery, Of
Muskingum College then took up the
topic and presented the Laymen's
Missionary Movement, National cam
paign. Mr.. Montgomery reviewed
the history and development of mis-
sionary work and the Laymen's part
of the same. In 1906 small group
of college students held the famous
Haystack prayer meeting and launch
ed the first organized foreign mis-
sionary work in North America. In
1885 the Student Volunteer Movement
was organized taking as their watch
word, the "evangelization Of the world
In this generation" In 1906 a young
business man conceived the idea of
getting back of the great body of Stu
dent Volunteers and supporting them
in the front. This idea was trans
mitted to large group Of men and
the same year the Laymen's Mission
ary Movement was organized, taking
as their watch word "The Evangel-
ization of the World in this Genera.
ton" Since that time the movement
has been a success.
The campaign carried on in Canada
last year demonstrated that when
business men get back of the church
es, that they have more than doubled
the missionary contributions Of the
Dominion during the past twelve
months.
Mr.. Montgomery referred to the
great conventions and the hundreds
of smaller gatherings in the United
States and stated that there has been
more missionary talking and agitation
done in the United States during the
past two years than during all Of our
hundred years previous to the launch
ing of this laymens movement. In
reference to the great need he refer
red briefly to the fact that there are
over 600 millions of people, half Of
the population of the world today who
have never even so much heard that
