Baptists Doing Much Work.

The Baptist pastors of the
county are just concluding an
efficiency campaign. during
which the work of the denomi-
nation was placed before all the
churches in the county and plans
discussed for increasing the
efficiency in the individual
churches.
Much interest was taken by
all the congregations and it is
believed that the results achieved
will be far reaching. During
the campaign fifty joined the
tithing club and there were
other evidences OF Increased
efforts on the part of the indi-
vidual members.
The work throughout the
county is in fine shape and plans
are under way for even greater
work. Three new churches are
to soon be erected, the material
now being placed on the grounds.
A commodious brick edifice will
be erected at Hickory Grove,
costing $4,000 or $4,000. A
wooden building, of substantial
character is to soon be finished
at Smyrna, while a So, 600 build
ing will supplant the present
quarters used by the second
Baptist church in York.
Two new parsonages, one at
York and one at Glover, are
being completed.
Taken as a whole the York
association will have a most en-
couraging report to make at the
the State Convention, which
meets soon.

lSEnhR0WER'S TRIAL !:
NOT LIKELY THIS WEEK

The court of general sessions
for York county convened Mon
day at York with Judge Rice
presiding. 1t was thought that
the time of the court for the
present week will be taken up
entirely in the trial of cases in
which the prisoners are in Jail
and it will undoubtedly be the
second week before the Fairfield
cases are called. 1t may be the
third week, depending on the
business before the court.
Ernest Eisenhower is under
three separate indictments for
murder, charged with killing A.
D. Hood, sheriff of Fairfield coun-
ty, Deputy Sheriff Raleigh Boul-
ware and the negro prisoner,
Jules Smith. Morrison and Rawls
are under indictment for the
shooting of Sheriff Hood and the
negro Smith.
The tragedy occurred at Winns-
boro on the 14th day of last June,
when the negro rapist, Jules
Smith, was shot to death and
Sheriff Hood and Deputy Sheriff
Boulware were mortally wound
ed while they were taking the
negro up the steps of the court
house to place him on trial for
his life.
The trial of this case will be
watched with interest through
out the State, and it is expected
that large crowds will be present
during the trial of the case.

NEGRO MINUS AN ARM
As RESULT OF SHOOTING

Cliff Alexander, negro en-
ployed at the plant of the Char
lotte Brick company, suffered the
loss of his right arm Sunday as
a result of having been shot
with shotgun at close range
about 1880 O'Clock Saturday
night.
The shooting occurred about
half way up Ardrey's Hill, west
of the Southern passenger sta
ton, and, according to the
negro's version of the affair, the
shot was fired by Crawford
Tschellier, a young white man
employed in one of the local
cotton mills. Following this
statement of the negro and a
statement of a young man who
was in the company of Tschellier
at the time, the latter was ar
rested shortly afterward and
placed in the city prison. Sunday
afternoon he was taken to York
Jail, where he will be held pend
ing developments in the negro's
condition. Alexander bled pro-
tusely from the wound and it
was feared that in his weakened
condition he could not survive
the necessary amputation of his
arm, but this he did and at last
reports was doing as we'll as
could be expected. Tschellier,
who was said to have been under
the influence of whiskey at the
time, would make no statement
of the affair.
The shooting attracted a large
Gro wd to the scene and excite
ment ran high for short time.

Ing Car Schedules.


following the plan outlined at the
meeting held last Thursday, the first
of the letters to the railroads asking
for better service for Keokuk have
been dispatched. These letters are be-
ing sent out by the Industrial associa-
tion. These letters will be followed
by other letters, If the first ones prove
unsuccessful In the quest.
Keokuk has started on what has
been termed by one of the men inter
ested, a never-ending campaign for
better train service for the city. It
is believed that the fact that the let
tiers represent practically united
commercial front, will assure them
more than usual attention.
That better service can be secured
on several OF the lines Is the optim-
istic view point held by some of the
better service boosters. They believe
that the roads will pay some attention
to the complaints and that they viii
respond.
One OF the railroad men here sug-
gested that the Keokuk Electric COM
pany might help out the tituation for
visitors by posting in the station a
schedule OF their cars on all lines III
