AT McKENDREE CHURCH

JASPER, Tenn. March 94.-The
Easter services at McKendree church,
Jasper, were especially fine this year.
A great effort had been made by the
pastor, Rev. W. d. Dew, and the
members of his congregation to make
IL notable event, and from the morn
ing service to the children's service at
night, it was enjoyable in every way.
The church was decorated deliberately,
embellishing very much the already
beautiful interior. The music was
we'll prepared and work of the per-
formers closely followed by very
large congregations. Jasper has
large amount of musical talent, and it
was put to no better use than in pro-
claiming the resurrection of Christ.
The sermon by the pastor, Rev. Dew,
at II a. m. was a very learned dis
course, and heard attentively. The
congregation at morning service was
not so large, owing to there being
three other services, but at night it
was record breaker. The choir and
children marched from one of the Sun
day school rooms into the auditorium
of the church while march was play
ed on the organ by Mrs. G. Fl. Vann,
after which the program WAS carried
out as announced Misses Nell Hall,
Nell Robertson, Grace Kelly and Ava
Simpson were tire violinists, and the
readers we're Misses Lucy Wee Jack
son, Dixie Williamson, Effel Dew,
Fannie Darr and others The commit
tee in charge of the event was Mrs A.
l.. Robertson, Mrs G. II. Vann and
Mrs. A, r Hall Mrs. Vanu had
charge of the music, Mrs Hall and
Mrs. Robertson of the decorations.
Miss Callie Simp.on was director of

Can BarabOO Corn Match This?

James Miles says that he has raised
some corn that is the funniest corn he
ever saw and he does not know what
kind it is or what to call it. The facts
as far as are known are these: A man
was hunting last year up in the north
ern peninsula of Michigan and he shot
wild goose whose crop was filled
with corn. He sent some of it down
to FL. Welch who gave three kernels to
James Miles who planted it and hence
this monstrositv. The stalks look like
corn but every kernel has separate
husk on 1t like the outside and all are
agaia enclose in the usual husk. 1t
has no silk and the corn is of reddish
G .sL. Coming tIom the northern part
of Michigan the cora might need both
a coat and a vest TO protect it from the
frosts up there or again coming from

PLANS MADE FOR
LINEN FACTORY

Architect r. w. Mcfarland has
completed three sets of plans for fire
proof building to be erected on the
bank of the Baraboo river between
Oak and Ash streets where Macarthur
& Son own the water power. The build
ing will be 40 by so feet, two stories
high and so built that another story
may be added and additions made.
The lower floor will be half basement.
The outside exposure will be of buff
tile and there will be about eighty
windows to give plenty of light. Bids
will be received soon and If the work
is pushed the building will soon be
erected. The saw mill which occupied
the property has been moved. Nc
Arthur & Son operate a mill farther
down the river where towels and other
goods are made.

them to keep as souvenir of this
'sancient" dam.
After a short time Mr.. Moore return
Ell to the tent with a dark colored
stick sawed Off squarely at both ends,
and appearing similar to piece of
four inch iron pipe which might have
been exposed to the elements for many
years. The stick was dense, heavy,
close grained, and as though partly
petrified. Three of us decided it was
probably black ash; it had taken on
deep greenish black stain even to its
very center.
Mr.. Moore declares that this stick
must have been cut and laid by his
father as part of the foundation of
the dam almost, if not quite, seventy
years ago, and the records which he
has and his remembrance of da'es
would seem to authenticate his be-
lief.

Where Samaritans Are Punished.

They have some remarkable laws in
Austria, and Americans who mean to
go there better be careful how they
let their generous impulses get the
best OF them. Particularly it behooves
them TO be careful when rescuing per-
sons from death.
Recently a Viennese merchant, while
taking an evening stroll, found man
hanging from tree He promptly cut
the rope and by the use of strenuous
measures brought the would-be suicide
back to consciousness. His act of
benevolence was rewarded with a
summons to court for effecting the
rescue so carelessly as to raise several
bruises on the body when it fell to the
ground after being cut down.
1t may tax the credulity of the
American to believe it, but it is an
actual fact that the court decided that
the defendant was liable, under article
So-and-so of the Austrian code, which
reads that ANY person injuring an
other through want OF due care shall
be subject to fine and damages"

up IN our services when We say the Apos-

Church' to which in the average mans
mind the word Protestant is opposed, why
not nave the moral courage TO draw the
line IN contradistinction to the Roman
catholic Church and assert our title as
the Holy Catholic Episcopal Church of
the United States" as proposed by DR..
II. S. Thorne, in his letter to the New
York Churchman in its issue Of the nth
instant in which he says: This gives
the title in the creed and that part of
the old title that Is not objectionable. II
Is fully descriptive. 1t assumes nothing
and usurps nothing. 1t does not claim
American which il has no right to. Il
only gives title to that over which il has
authority. 1t is inclusive of missions
everywhere. but does not claim territory
where they are 1t does not interfere
with the rights of Rome, or Greece, or
Russia, or England. 1t keeps for con-
venience sake the title Episcopal and in
the United States which win serve to
identify it and prevent the inconvenience
that might arise from discarding all the
old title and having an entire new one.
1t is an attractive title and one TO which
serious objection could not be made either
by the new Catholic school or the old
Protestant school II ought to, ard
no doubt would, satisfy more clurchmen
than any other that can be named"

ago that the reporting facilities in his
time were very crude and uncertain He
was destined from birth to break all the
strength test records in his tribe and
grew up from babyhood without punish
ment. At an early age he married a
daughter of the Philistines. Little is
known OF their domestic career except
that soon afterward Samson went out
and killed thirty Philistines single-hand-
ed. though they were not even remotely
related to his wife.
This caused great indignation among
the Philistines, and it was voted to kill
Samson. Just for this Samson caught
500 foxes. tied them together by the tails
with firebrands between, and set them
loose in the Philistines' wheat fields To
punish him. his own people turned him
over to the Philistines. However, he
slew 1000 of them with the jawbone of
an ass. which remained an international
record until people began making
speeches recently against child labor and
pure food and drug laws.
By this time Samson had become such
a pest to the Philistines that they let
him severely alone and took smallpox
whenever they could to discourage him
from associating with them. Samson
served as one of the judges of Israel
for twenty years. never indulging in a

on him and prepared to exterminate him.
he took the gates of their hinges and
carried them twenty miles-the earliest

About this time Samson met with
Delilah, beautiful daughterNof Philis-
tine, and a love affair ensued which
caused a great deal of remark Delilah
loved Samson, but objected to his ap-
pearing as a human mattress, and one
night she sheared his hair off. Then she
called in her relatives to admire him,

Interest in our controversy with
Japan over the California alien land
bill now shifts from Sacramento to
Washington. Gov. Johnson, having
given notice that he will approve the
measure. it devolves upon the Federal
government to reply to Japan's pro-
test that the bill violates the CONNER
cial treaty OF 1911.
Evidently Japan expects the Federal
government to accept its view and
compel the Californians to bow to the
treaty as the supreme law of the land.
There are indications that the admin
istration expects Japan to read the
treaty in the light of the Constitution
which leaves such questions as the
ownership of land TO the sovereign
States. The theory of such an argu-
ment is that any power entering into
treaty with the United States must
bear in mind our dual form of govern
ment and its distribution of jurisdic-
ton
1t is TO be hoped that Japan will &C
cept at its face value the desire of
the administration for continued good
relations. Our friendship with Japan,
founded on Perry's great service to
that country, may be destroyed in
either or both of two ways. Ameri-
