ZION CHURCH NOTES.

An Overlooking response by Zion's
congregation filled our large audi
torium at both services last Sunday.
And the interest and attention was
in full harmony with the proportions
of the audiences. The pastor preached
from the subject: The Most Excel
lent Way" and it was evident that
hungry hearts were greatly helped
and inspired. A number of visitors
were also welcomed with a most
hearty invitation to return. Miss Les
sic King of the Second Baptist church,
Kansas City, delighted the morning
congregation with a solo, and awaken
ed its affection for the reception of
the message.
In the evening the third OF the illu-
ustrated sermon-lectures, from the
series, From Creation to the Cross, -
was given by the pastor. These
stereopticon services are becoming
more popular. Rainy weather does
not seem to have any effect upon the
interest of the congregation. Next
Sunday evening will give twenty-five
views from the birth of Christ for
ward. The lesson will be helpful as
well as entertaining The service be-
gins at 8 O'Clock sharp and everyone
is welcome.
The mid-week prayer services are
attracting large audiences, owing to
special program of Bible study and
singing, in addition to the service of
prayer. Do not fail to make one of
the good attendance for next We'd
nesday night, o'clock sharp. Come!

BIG CIRCUS DAY DRAWS NEARER.
Unusual Amount of Local Interest
centered On Coming of Barnum
G. Bailey.

The day of all days in the calendar
of the small boy has almost arrived
end the youngsters of this vicinity
are anxiously counting the hours un-
til circus day. 1t looks now as
though a large percentage of the To-
cal population, both young and old,
will be present at one of the perform
ances when the Barnum & Bailey
Greatest Show on Earth exhibits in
Denver, Aug. 23.
Not in several years has SO much
local interest been evinced in circus
event as has been displayed this sea-
son in the coming exhibition of the
Barnum & Bailey Circus. 1t is prom
ised that the show will display more
new and novel features than ever be-
fore, including 100 new acts from
Europe.
The principal feature is the new Ori-
entail, spectacular pageant, Persia,
or the Pageants of The Thousand and
One Nights This great display,
which is portrayed by 1850 persons,
and hundreds of horses, elephants
and camels, depicts in pageantry the
famous tales of the Arabian Nights.
In New York City, where this pageant
| was produced for the first time this
| Spring, it was announced the most
gorgeous and stupendous Oriental dis
play ever presented in America
Among the foreign circus novelties
to be seen for the first time this sea-
son are four troupes of wonderful
| Chinese performers direct from Pekin,
the Great Hanneford family of riders;
Signor Bagonghi, famous dwarf eques-
trian from Italy; James Teddy, cham
pion jumper of the world; Pallenberg's
two troupes of trained bears, and a
host of other novel acts too numerous
to mention individually.
The Barnum G Bailey circus is
| travelling this season on five trains,
made up of eighty-nine cars. More
than 1,400 persons are carried in the
various departments of this great
show, which also included an enlarged
menagerie of 10S cages and forty-one
elephants.
A brilliant, new, three-mile street
parade will be given on the streets
during the morning hours preceding
the first performance.

Paducah, KY, July 20, 1916
After searching all day for a Ne
gro murderer, police and detec-
tives were astonished late this
evening when Will R. Johnson,
alias Stovall, alias Thompson, a
white man surrendered at police
headquarters as the slayer of
Orilla Singleton, a Negro woman
30 years old, whose head was cut
almost off by johnson. Johnson
says he does not know why he
killed her. His story indicates
jealousy was the cause. The wo-
man was slain in the home of
Charles Lunday, a grocer. John
son says he has wife and child
in Helena, Ark. He formerly
lived in Corondelet, a suburb of
St. Louis. He admitted he loved
the Negro woman.
