A Beautiful and Impressive
Service.

The First Presbyterian church was
lastly decorated with flowers and palms
Sunday morning when the Baccalaureate
sermon was preached to the pupils Of
Madison Female Institute. DIR. X. III.
Crossield, president of Transylvania
University, delivered the sermon, which
was able, interesting, edifying. 1t was
couched in choice words and delivered
in DIR. Crosslield's inimitable manner
1t was a beautiful and impressive SER
vice and great crowd was present. In
fact the capacity of the church was
more than taxed HE Led Captivity

was the doctors theme, and after telling
of the dark days of the primeval age, he
showed that Christ coming had brought
civilization, liberty and all the good and
great privileges we now enjoy. Perfect
attention was given the speaker and
there was general regret when he brought
to close his mastery effort. The mu-
sic was delightful feature of the SER
vice, many of the best singers in town
taking part. The NJ. f. |. pupils were
all dressed in snowy white and after
marching into the church, singing as
they came, occupied front seats. They
presented beautiful and inspiring pic
ture and one that will not soon be for
gotten. 1t was happy day TO those who
will soon leave the Hill School, to
cope with the sterner problems that are
sure TO confront them. They are we'll
equipped to combat them. thanks 10 DIR.
Cassaday and his splendid corps of
teachers, and those who know the men,
bers OF the class of 1913 have reason to
believe that whatever fate betide them
they will prove more than equal to the
occasion. That they will, the Climax
joins their many friends in hoping.

Hung Jury in Maupin Case.

After being out from Friday afternoon
at l:l0 until Saturday afternoon at 400
and several times reporting to the judge
that it could not agree on verdict, the
Jury in the case of Brack Maupin for
killing James Faris, mention of which
has several times been made in these
columns, was finally discharged. The
members of this jury DID not publicly
announce their standing in the case, blu.
from the best we can gather, nine were
for acquittal and three for conviction
two for death; one for manslaughter. Itis
reported that one of these gentleman was
willing 10 90 to the nine If the other
two were, in order that verdict might
be made. This may or may not be true,
nor do we vouch for the standing OF the
Jury. The courthouse was crowded
during the entire trial and many re-
NAMED for hours. hoping to be the first
to hear the verdict, in the event one was
made.

the condition of my hands. l could
not put them in water without max
