composed Of two flutes, two clari-
nets, two oboes, two bassoOna and
two English horns, under tho per-
sonal conduct of the founder.

Evangelist Nelson Spoke on This In
teresting Subject at the Bap-
tist Church Last 4
" sf.s sta
Evening.
FINE MONDAY NIGHT AUDIENCE
Good Singing by the Large Chorus
and a Beautiful Solo
by Prof. Wood.

Degeneration" was the subject
of Evangelist Nelson's sermon last
night at the Baptist church. There
was a fine Monday night audience,
Mr. Nelson said that the matter OF
regeneration was so Fundamentally
important that it could not be en-
phasized too often. Some people say
when they see how many mistakes
and blunders they have made that
they would like so we'll to have an
other chance at life. To go back to
childhood would be impossible and
undesirable because we could not
we'll leave children, friends and &C
complishments to do so. But God in
His infinite goodness has arranged
a plan whereby none Of these things
need be forfeited. He has made it
possible to be born again" into that
kingdom regarding which we have
regrets, i. e., the spiritual realm.
You. can start anew, begin all over
again. This Is what Jesus meant
when He told Nicodemus Eye must
be born anew" The preacher said
that to be born but once meant that
we would have two deaths, the phys
ical and the spiritual, but If you
are born twice, /. e., of flesh and
then Of spirit, that there is no death.
This he based on Christ's declara-
tion at Lazarus grave, "Whosoever
liveth and believeth on me shall new
err de-" by which he meant that the
physical death is not death to the
Christian, but just the experience OF
going home to the Father where
there is no second death.
It was an impressive service made
more so by the singing of the large
chorus and the beautiful solo OF
Prof. Wood. ' ,"
There was a meeting this after
noon. Let all who possibly can be
present at 1880 this evening. A
good service is promised.

terlng, he found them at work with an
Iron step such as is used on telephone
and telegraph poles, and with a piece

DETECTIVE BURNS AT TRIAL

LOS ANGELES, July after
contributing $50 each for the privi
lege of airing their mutually uncom-
plimentary views, W. j. Burns and
Defense Attorney Earl Rogers for
Clarence Darrow, appeared in court
today in the Darrow trial to renew
their battle of wits.
Rogers was expected to begin at
once the cross-examination of Burns,
who is a state witness.
The standing dispute between
Burns and Rogers which had its in
ception in the San Francisco graft
cases" and was renewed late last
week when the pair clashed in cor
ridor of the federal building came
nearer to a head last evening when
Darrow, questioning Burns regarding
his acquaintance with John R. Har-
rington, of Chicago, made a remark
in an undertone which Burns prompt
ly resented. Darrow apologized,
whereupon Burns directed the atten-
tion Of the court to Rogers, who sat
grinning behind his client.
Il call the courts notice to Mr..
Rogers" said Burns, "a few days ago
he accused me of carrying sword
cane, which was absolutely untrue.
He also charged me with being a
suborner of perjury and | object.
Il make 1t again, sir, interrupted
Rogers, and I won't retract."
The court here interfered, inform
ing Rogers that witnesses should be
immune from insult.
Burns and Rogers thereupon be-
gan trying to out-scowl and out
bristle each other. After Judge Hut
ton had been a silent spectator o.
this contest for at least minute, NJ
announced the fines.
