SKELETONS FOUND
 UNDER THE HOUSE

Jackson, Miss. April 21.-(Special.) ) While negro workmen were engaged yesterday in excavating on the Car negie library premises with a view to placing a brick wall around the rear of the grounds. they unearthed two dead skeletons as one of them ex- pressed. As matter of course, the workmen suspended operations for sometime, but they managed to get out and assemble a whole lot of bones
 There were two skulls-no doubt about that-and one was thick, while the other was thin, leaving large lati- tude on guesses as to species of the human race represented in the pile. The negroes did not refuse to continue work, but they abandoned research into the cavern in which the skele- tons seemed to have been planted foot foremost and in horizontal position.
 Careful investigation seemed to de- velop that the bones of these former citizens had at one time or another been used by some student of anat-

REV. JONES TALKS
ON "TRANSGRESSOR'

Rev. c. O. Jones preached last night
at the Tigert Memorial church on
The Way of the Transgressor is
Hard" He said in part:
"A transgrcssor is one who violates
law. We have in this country positive
law and negative law. one says we
must, and the other says we munt not.
This is also true of Gods law. The
bible gives us "A number of definitions
of sin. The transgression of the law
is sin. All unrighteousncss is sin.
The plowing of the wicked is sin. To
him that knowcth to do good and
doeth it not. is sin. Men will tell you
they are not very bad. The barren
fig tree was cursed because it had no
fruit The curse of God viii bc upon
every soul that does not bear fruit.
who is the moral man? He is the
man who keeps the moral law. Some
men drink, cuss and do II lot of other
things, yet claim to he moral men.
That is, they are moral cussers, moral
drinkers. etc. The most moral man
in this town has committed enough
sins to damn a hundred men. God
cannot look upon sin with the least
degree of allowance The biggest
merchant in your town is the man
who sells the most merchandise. The
biggest farmer in your county is the
man who raises the most farm prod
ucts. The biggest man in any line is
the man who does the business. SO
the biggest sinner in Tulsa is the man
who has the greatest influence over
men in keeping them away from God
often he is the so-Callcd moral man.
