David and Jonathan
Theme at St. Paul's

On last Sunday night at st
PauPs church, Rev. Allan Nc
Farland preached an eloquent
sermon on the theme of love,
using as the basis of his dis
course the classic Bible story of
David and Jonathan.
He parallelled in a logical and
convincing manner the expert
ences Of these characters with
the Christian life, dwelling on
the transforming power of love,
love of man for man and of man
for the Christ.
In mis- highly imaginative man
ner, Mr.. McFarlan described the
meeting of David and Jonathan,
telling how Jonathan's curiosity
changed to wonder, to admira-
tion and to love until Jonathan
was constrained to strip off his
"Kingly clothes, giving them to
the shepherd boy with the words,
kingly clothes become kipgly
characters"
Contemplation of Christi he
said, will inspire wonder,
which will change to admiration
and devotion, until we will ex.
claim as did Jonathan to David,
l love you as my soul!'H
He followed this beautiful
story of devotion through to the
end, reminding his audience
that such love as this knows no
cost. That as Jonathan suffered
hardships for defending the name
of David in the house of Saul, so
may Christians expect hardships
if loyal to the Master.
What thy soul desiretb will
do" said Jonathan when Da~ id
asked II he were sorry for his
covenant with him. This"
said the speaker, should be the
attitude of every follower of
Christ"
Then he drew beautiful pic
ture of that last scene on the
battlefield when David, mourn
ing over the body Of his friend,
said, THY lcvc to me was won
derful."
"On that last day." said the
speaker, will this be the atti
tude of Christ to you? Will he
have reason to stop by your side
and say, Thy love 70 me was
wonderful?'" "

Wine and dPistol Bring
Death to Farmer

Pistol toting and wine dirk
ing again made q bad combina-
tlon when negro. under the in.
fluence of drink, shot and killed
white man, seemingly without
provocation.
Last Saturday evening Charley
Campbell, celored, shot and
killed Lester Hancock, white
man, at McAllen's place, eight
miles from Cheraw on the Ma
tional Highway.
As the story goes, two negroes,
Charley and Lewis Campbell,
stopped on Saturday evening at
McAllen's place and asked for
wine, it being alleged that Nc
Allen usually had more or less Of
this commodity to spare.
While they were being served
two white men, Lester Hancock
and Clayton Hendrick drove up
and were invited to get out and
drink. They did so, it is alleged,
and after being served there was
some discussion as to who should
stand the next treat, though
there vas no dispute over the
matter.
Mr.. Hancock agreed to treat
a4d then, as the wine was being
drawn, without cause and with
out warning, SO far as is known
to the authorities, Charley
Campbell drew revolver and
began shooting, four balls TAX
ing effect in the body of Mr..
Hancock. 1t is further alleged
that as the wounded man was
falling, Lewis Campbell struck
him over the head with a quart
bottle.
Mr. Hancock was attended by
DR.. Bull, of Cheraw, who pro
nounced the case hopeless. The
patient lived only few hours
after being wounded.
The dying statement of Mr..
Hancock is in substantial agree
ment with the accounts Of the
tragedy given by both McAllen
who SOLD the wine, and Clayton
Hendrick.
The two Campbell brothers de
clare they were so drunk they
did not know what they were do
ing and do not remember the
events Of the evening.
Word of the tragedy was re-
ceived by the sheriff at II p M,

Interest Still Centers
In Serbian Campaign

The interest of the war during
the past week remained with
operations in and around Serbia,
where the Teutons aud their Bull
garian allies are endeavoring to
force their way through to their
Turkish ally.
The race for the road to Con-
stantinople has reached an ex-
citing stage. The Bulgarians are
within a few miles Of forming a
junction with their Austro-G err
man allies, while the French, in
small force, have Joined the
Serbians.
The French are not yet in suf-
ficlent mum bers to assume an ac-
tual offensive in Macedonia, but
the rapidity Of the Bulgarian ad-
vance in that region already has
diminished and large detach-
ments of French and British are
being rushed forward.
Actual junction between the
Bulgarlans and their allies will
soon show whether the Serbians
are able to hold their mountain
positions until the allies bring
up strong forces.
Italy is still hammering away
at the Austrian front, which is
shaken but not broken. 1t is
expected that the Italian offens-
i've will prevent the Austrians
from reinforcing their Balkan
army.
Russia, by her stubborn de-
fense in certain sections and her
continued offensive in Galicia
is keeping her opponents engaged
along the whole eastern front
In the west there is evidence
that the allies are again prepar-
ing for an offensive, which mey
prevent the Germans from di
verting any OF their force there.

OBJECT TO LOCATION OF
PROPOSED CEMETERY

A number of citizens held a meet
ing Monday evening and discussed
the ACCESSIBILITY of establishing
cemetery adjoining the new pumping
station. The opinion of the meeting
was that a cemetery should not be
established on grounds so close to the
station where shallow wells had to
be drilled TO get a sufficient water
supply, and where the city had work
ed for six years to find fresh water
at an expenditure Of almost a quarter
OF million dollars. A committee COM
posed of Ed Bryan. Herman ROmun-
der M. NJ. Clark, Frank Schultz and
James Heunessy was appointed with
full power to take whatever action
necessary to protect the citizens from
the use of impure water, and the tax
payers in the investment of a quarter
of million dollars.
From a report in another column
it will be noticed that the cemetery
proposition was definitely decided up
on at a meeting held in the Mish
awake hotel Tuesday night. One Of
the promoters stated to The News
Times Wednesday that the matter
had gone so far that it could not now
be prevented from going through.
The appointment of an organization
committee was the last necessary
step to its accomplishment.

FIRST BUSINESS MEMS
GAME WILL Be JUNE 8
Both Teams Select Lineup and
Start PraCtice-the North
SiderS Confident They Will
Again Be ViCtorS.

Owing 10 a misunderstanding
among the officials. the first baseball
game of a series to be played be-
tween the business men Of the south
side and those of the north side this
summer, was not played Tuesday af-
tenoon. The game was first sched-
uled for June ., but later changed
to, Tuesday afternoon, June s.
One OF the best series since the an
nual event was first held, is prom
ised for this season. Formerly il was
the custom TO play only one contest
but owing to differences which arose
after the game last summer it was
decided that hereafter a series of
three games would be played to as
sure 10 one side or the other. which
could reasonably claim the champion
ship.
The game Of 1914 was won by the
north side team by a score Of to 1.
Previous to this, the south side men
had held the championship among
the business men for several years.
The north side officials are more con-
fident this year than last that they
will be the victOrs not only in the first
game but the second. they claiming
that a third game will not be neces-
sary. Mgr. Wambach said We'd
nesday morning that his team would
so badly defeat the south siders that
a repetition of the score would not
be desired by the south siders.
However, according to Mgr.
Wilke of the south side, he is not at
all afraid of the north side advance
dope" and promises that his men
will take both games. With the addi-
ton of several new recruits this year
one of the best teams in years will be
seen. Among the strong men in the
south side assembly are Erickson,
said to have formerly been a mem
Der of the twirling staff of the Fort
Wayne team in the Central league,
and Carr a former Southern Mich
igan player.
