The Revival.

The meeting at the Methodist
Church is increasing in interest each
evening. There were ten professions
Tuesday night, and many deeply
convicted. Let the good work 60 on
until the whole town is stirred for
God and righteousness.
Let the business men take an inter-
est in the meeting, for I am STR that
nothing could be of greater advantage
to the town than a spiritual uplift.
Bro. Andrews, the evangelist, is
doing some of the strongest preach
ing we ever heard, and Bro. Spindler
and wife, the singers, are doing their
part nobly. No one should miss this
opportunity of hearing these people.
We are expecting a great meeting.
Pray for us.

The moving picture show has evi- dently come to stay. and it already figures prominently in the recreative life of both cities and towns. In small towns. where public amusements are few. the moving picture show will be dominating factor. and in many of these towns the women are taking an active interest in seeing that the pie lures are Of helpful nature A pure. sweet story told in pictures. or clean bit of humor presented through nov ing picture films is enjoyable and gives an evening of recreation which will be helpful to q tired man or woman. and gives zest to life for the young. who crave amusement.

 FOR HYMEN'S ALTAR
He Is Being Made to Pay In Advance
 For His Expected Happiness.

When Earl Ullom got married a few weeks ago and gave his perse- l cutting Friends the slip to evade their
 post nuptial pranks, by taking the
 bridal party for d trip across the desert, he was pursued by the said prosecuting friends captured at Glen dale and separated from his perigri- mating family circle. brought back to town and put through q course of { tortures.
 Among the leaders of the friendly mob was Charles Sorenson. Soren-
 son has of late been exhibiting pro- nounced symptoms of matrimonial in- i lection, and those in the best posi- ! ton to know say the fever is now at it's height; in fact, the crisis will probably be passed today. Knowing | that a newly married man is more or less Irresponsible. and fearing that SorenSon would not be where they could put their hands on him after the wedding. UlIom, who yearns for revenge. and the rest of the crowd some fourteen in number, took SOr- enson into custody last night at his new home in the western part of the
 city and brought him to Washington street behind the same old horse that led the Ullom procession.
 He submitted gracefully. knowing
 that he had to; bought everything in
 Donofrio's store that the boys fancied
 would taste good during the night. and was then piloted to the national guard arsenal, where he was orna- mented with a ball and chain. Earl
 UllOm, John Sloan. Frank Spangler and Chas. Nafziger stood guard over him during the night This morning he will be released, but will be shadowed by one or another of the gang" until it is officially announced that he is married What may then happen to him nobody knows. The boys have no objections to his get ting married. On the contrary. they are pleased at the prospect. but they have a sort of a feeling that they propose to know where they can put their hands on him after he is mar ried. What their 'follw up" plans are was not divulged last night They insist that history should not be writ ten until after it has taken place.
