WEEDS ON ALL
STREETS AND IN
ALL SECTIONS
CITIZENS IN ALL PARTS OF CITY
ARE COMPLAINING OF UN
SLIGHTLY APPEARANCE OF THE
HOROUGHFARES.

Citizens in all parts of the city are
loud in their complaints of the un-
slightly appearance of streets, espe-
cfalIy paved thoroughfares. which have
been quite overgrown with rank weeds,
and since there has been such a large
number of able bodied prisoners
boarded at the police station for sew
eral days. the citizens are free to ask
what steps are being taken to clearing
the streets of such vegetation.
In the residential parts of the city
weeds have grown up so quickly that
at several points it is a menace TO
pedestrians to pass clumps as tall as
six feet. At numerous points. it is re-
walk. and especially Is this true of
paved streets intersecting East Gads-
den street.
Following the past few days Of copi-
Gus rainfall, mosquitoes have been en-
countered in various sections Of the
city, and in the New City section
where the pests are unusual at any
time of the year generally, they are
being reported in great numbers, and
it is claimed that weeds in the streets
are favorite breeding places for them
The hope is held out that some of
the able bodied prisoners. who are at
the city Jail in such large numbers
will be doled off in squads and do
some needed weed cutting in the
streets in all section, and particularly
along some of the paved streets in the
residential sections

London, Aug 19.-Complete silence
is maintained as to the fortunes of
war in the big battle understood to be

Republicans Should

The New York Times contains an
editorial calling on the republicans for

they purpose carrying out If success

The republicans profess great deal
OF confidence about carrying the

SERVICE AT THE
FIRST BAPTIST.
AN INTERESTING MID WEEK
MEETING WAS HELD AND AT
TENDANCE WAS FLATTERING-
LED BY JUDGE {. o. 5EGGS.

The fourth mid week service dur e.
| ing their pastors absence from the
city was held at the First Baptist
church last night. The meeting we s
opened with pra yer by Rev. Ira J.
Roberts. That live interest is still
being manifested is shown by the fact
that AZ were present.
A very interesting talk was given
by Hon. f. D. Beggs. He took his
text from several passages of Scrip
ture, the first one giving in a concise
form the thought of the lesson: Seek
We first the kingdom of God and his
Righteousness, and all these things
shall be added unto you. The other
passages were Ephesians 5:15-16:
Proverbs 1910 and James is. A
number of calls upon the individual
were enumerated and among them
We're the call to church and other re-
ligious matters; family, fraternities,
society, and the matter Of earning a
living. The great problem before all
people today is how much time and
effort to devote to these several ques-
tionS. Judge Beggs told of the Chris
tian's solution of the difficulty, which
was to put religious affairs first and
claim the promise quoted above
Another talk was given by Mr..
Roberts the same subject. One
point he emphasized was taking the
mind off the things of this world
both pleasure and business-and put
ting it on the divine.
Besides the regular music those
present were favored with solo,
"CalVary,' beautifully sung by Miss
Hattie Whftson. a pretty duet. God
is Love-" by Mr.. A. G. Sherrer and
Miss Ellie Wentworth, was another
treat.
The choir. during these mid week
meetings, has been very faithful in
attendance. Last night every mem
ber was present, making up a total
of thirteen.
Next Wednesday night the service
will have the form of a sacred con-
cert, chiefly on the Nictrola and the
committee in charge promises a good
program.
