A Great Day at Lincecum.

The building of the church at Lince-
cum has been quite a task, owing to
the great financial stress that We have
all faced for the last six months, but
by the steady and determined work OF

feel that this community has been
greatly blessed by having such man

all the pastors of the respective churches
take the active part that this brother

The day had been set for some time

Ransom Rambo and Bro. G. w. Atwell
to the Office of deacon. Bro. H. d.

and attentive congregation. Some

Our pastor asked for an offering fol-

A fine dinner was then spread by the
good women of this community. After
spending two hours in good fellowship,

Three New Locomotives OF Improved
Type for l.. X. & N. Co.

The last three of the eight ten-wheel
locomotives ordered by the Louisiana
Railway and Navigation Co. year ago
reached New Orleans last week, and
were put into service between New Or
leans and Shreveport Immediately. The
purchase of the new locomotives was a
part of the plan of development inaugu-
rated by Mr.. Edenborn. A number of
cars were also contracted for, and con-
siderable improvement has been made
TO the tracks. The new locomotives
are of greatly improved type. CON-
pared with the old engines of the line,
and one of them, according to Mr..
Helm, is capable of doing the work OF
three engines of the old type. The
new engines will be used in heavy

Developments in the European War.

The report was given out tnlS
week that So vessels of the Ger
man navy were cruising in the
North Sea, but the report has
not been confirmed. At any rate
they did not run up with the En-
glish fleet, which is supposed to
keep up a patrol of the entire sea
outside of the immediate waters
of the German coast.
Germany reports the sinking
of an English submarine in the
waters between Helgoland and
the Kiel canal. If this. is true il
shows the English are making
use of their submarine fleet,
which is said to be larger than
the German submarine fleet.

is expected to usher in more fu-

IN the trenches during the winter.
Operations in the Dardanelles
have been resumed. A force of
20. 900 English troops have been
landed at .Enos. Turkeys CHIEF
port on the Aegean sea. About
the same number of French
troops have been landed on the
Asiatic side of the Dardanelles.

French ships have taken possess

captured several hundred TURK

The English have landed 3d.
600 troops on the Galipoli PENN
sular on the European side of the
Dardanelles. All together it is
said the French and English will
land fully $50, 600 troops on the
land before they proceed with a
concerted attack on the forts at
the narrow part Of the strait.
On the other hand. Russia is re-
ported to be transporting $50. 00G
troops across the Black Sea, to
land them on Turkish soil near
the Bosphorus, supported by the
guns of her ships, when she will
attack the forts in the Bosphorus
