GREAT CROWDS
ATTEND REVIVAL
Churches Have Joined Hands to
Fight the Great Enemy of
Souls. Many are Being
Saved.

The revival meeting which has
been in progress at the Baptist
church this week has increased in
interest and attendance at every
service since the meeting began.
Great crowds have greeted Evangel-
ist Boyles at each appointment and
Wednesday evening people were
turned away from the door unable
to gain admission. Much interest
is being manifested in the services
by both saint and sinner. The
Methodists have joined forces in the
work, the choirs of the two churches
have been consolidated and good
music is being rendered at each and
every service.
1t was announced Wednesday
night that about forty souls had
been saved up TO that time, with
many penitents at the altar enquir-
ing the way of salvation. 1t was
announced further, that all future
meetings would be held in the opera
house, owing to the fact that the
church was far too small to hold the
crowds. The first services, the
women's meeting, Is being held
there this, Thursday afternoon.
Tonight Bro. Boyles will preach on
"The DEVILS He'll Bound Train. "
Other subjects are announced as
follows:
Friday night, Feb. "a, 'Leaving
home Rich, returning Poor"
Saturday night, cat the Gate of
Heaven, But Lost"
Sunday, II a. M, "How to
Know when Saved"
Sunday afternoon, 2:SO, sermon
to men only, topic: 'She Made
Him Sleep on Her Knees"
Sunday night, Goods Last Call"
Special services for the children
and young people under sixteen
years of age will be held Saturday
afternoon.
All services will hereafter be held
in the opera house and everybody
in Pocahontas and surrounding
country is invited to attend the
meetings. Come, bring your
friends, invite your friends in the
country to come and enjoy these
splendid religious services.

fRISC0-MAN SHOWS
PICTURE OF BRIDGE
Paper States That Bridge Will De
Erected During This Year

In the February issue of the FRS
CONAN, the official paper of the
Frisco system, appears picture OF
the new bridge to be erected
across Black river at this place,
The total length of the bridge will
be 1925 feet.
The draw span will be the long
est on the Frisco Lines, and one of
the longest in the United States.
The bridge will be located in the
bend in the river, and because of
the difficult navigation at this point
the United States War Department
required a clear channel of 200
feet, resulting in the long swing
span.
To give an idea of the size of the
structure the artist has shown a
l,2oo-class engine on the bridge.
The height from the water to the
highest point is 90 feet.
The paper states that the bridge
will be built this year, which will
certainly be good news to poca-
hontas people and those travelling
to and from this place.

DEMOCRATS NOW
 PREPARE DEFENSE
Party Struggle Over Now. Republican Attack
 Is Due

Washington. June 2.-Democratic mem
 bers of the House having finished their
 party struggle over the wool tariff and
 agreed almost unanimously to support
 the Underwood bill, placing a duty of
 20 per cent ad valorem on raw wool, pre-
 pared today to meet the attacks upon the
 proposed revision of the schedules that
 are to come from the republican minor
 ty.
 The democratic plan was to introduce
 the wool bill today and refer it to the
 ways and means committee, by which 1t
 would be reported favorably next week.
 Leaders of the democrats were jubiant
 over the result of their caucus last night.
 They were pleased because differences
 threatened by the interpretation of Will liam Jennings Bryan in advocacy of free wool had been adjusted and the party apparently cemented in it's support of the revenue measure They construed the action of the caucus as rebuke to MT. Bryan.
 Representative Underwood, who, with ] Speaker Champ Clark, led the fight for | revenue tariff on wool from the be- ginning of the special session, said: "The adoption or this Dill ana the unah- | unity with which it was received by dem ocrats, many of whom did not favor It | as a policy, but was eventually brought | to see revenue necessity, demonstrated again the earnestness and wisdom of the
 democratic House. As for MT. Bryan's attack upon the bill, I can only say that he, has received his answer from demo- crats who never bolted a caucus. The Senate was not In session today. The charge that democratic leaders are adiourning the House over Monday each week to prevent consideration of general pension bill that might be brought up only on that day was made again today by Minority Leader Mann.
 Mir Underwood denied that the demo- crats were trying to delay execution. Adjournment to Tuesday was ordered.
