An excellent crowd attended the
Metropolitan Church Sunday. The
pastor seemed at his zenith and drove
home to the hearts of his hearers the
truth of the gospel. A number of
visitors were present and baptismal
services were conducted after our SER
vices. The Union revival now being
conducted at the A. M. E. Church are
doing good work. The Holy Spirit is
among them and many precious souls
are turned awry from the world.
The forum was royalty entertained
by a musical treat of talent from Ar
g%entine, Kan. Much credit is due Mrs.
Ophelia Jackson and all who assisted
her. Mr.. Hill made us believe we had
a second Mr.. Hale present. His tenor
solo was creditably rendered. The
question of How does the death rate
of the Negroes compare with that of
the whites in the United States and
what is the proportion of increase of
Negroes compared with hat of the
Whites" was discussed. Prof. A. ].
Nicely talked at length on Ventilation
and Cleanliness. Mrs. Benson of Ohio
and the Chorus from Western Uni
versity furnished music for the occa-
sion.

BAPTIST MINISTER
 SAYS TANLAG HAS
 RESTORED HEALTH Always Thought Most Pat ent Medicines Were
 Fakes, But is Now
 Convinced That Tanlac is an Exception.

"I am an ordained Baptist minister, and have always been greatly opposed to patent medi- cines of any klnd." said Rev. Jno. M. Sims, of Atlanta, a few days ago. In fact, I have always regarded the great ma jority of them as nothing more or less than fakes, but l want to say to you that I believe Tanlac is an exception to the rule, be- cause 1 have never taken any, thing that helped me as much as this medicine.
 Mrs. Sims had not been very well and on the recommendation of friends 1 bought the first bot tie for her, but when I took it home to her she refused to take | it. was also very badly run down myself and in need of med icine of some kind, and as my friends had spoken so highly of Tanlac l decided to try it myself. 1 have only taken two bottles and have gained ten pounds in weight. When I weighed day before yesterday with my over- coat on, 1 weighed two hundred and fifteen pounds. When weighed this morning on the scales up the street without my overcoat, weighed two hundred and ten pounds, which is ten pounds more than I weighed be- fore began taking it.

My kidneys also gave me great deal of trouble. would lay awake for hours at night as l was so nervous 1 could get nc rest or sleep-in fact, I was SC run down 1 was almost a ner. vous wreck. I was not myself at all and was losing weight and strength rapidly. My digestion was so badly impaired I had tc avoid sweet of all kinds, as much

258 FIRST NUMBER OUT
Secretary Baker Takes Out Ini-
tiaI Misunderstanding Con-
tinues All Day Friday and
Throughout Night.
Long List Of Numbers Given in Order
as Drawn, From Which Those Who
Will Be Called to Serve in
First Army Will Be
Selected.

Washington, July 21.-The drawing
for the big United States army was
not completed until early Saturday
morning. The drawing began at 9:45
Friday morning, and continued
throughout the day and night, Alto
gether 10000 numbers were drawn
from the big fish bowl. It was officially
stated that the first 1000 numbers
drawn represented more than 1,OOO,-
600 men, and it is not considered
probable that men representing any
number drawn after the first 1000
will be called before any exemption
boald for the first army. The first
eight numbers were drawn respective
~ by Secretary Of War Baker, Senator
Chamberlain of the senate military
committee, Congressman Dent of the
house military committee, Senator
Warren and Representative Kahn,
ranking minority members of the SEN
ate and house military committees; ;
Maj. Gen. Tasker 81. Bliss, acting
chief Of staff Of the army; Maj. Gen.
Enoch Crowder, provost marshal of
the army; and Major General Mccain.
adjutaut general of the army. After
the first eight numbers had been drawn
the regular tellers took hold, and
worked through until the long task
was completed.
In only a small number of the larg-
est districts will the numbers above a
few thousand affect registrants. OF
the 4,557 registration districts
throughout the country the largest has
something over 10000 numbers, while
the smallest has only about 1885, and
the average is about 5000. AS the
drawing proceeded, 157 numbers were
withdrawn before one low enough to
affect the smallest district came out.
1t was 126. placing 1867 men number
ed 126 on their local lists as 18th in
order Of liability.
The following list shows the num-
bers in the order in which they were
drawn. The first number in each case
represents the order in which the sec
Ond, or red-fnk registry, number was
taken from the bowl. Four numbers
are given in each line. Beginning
with the first number, which was
drawn by Secretary Baker.

Elk Herd for Trout Lake.

Steps were taken Tuesday by the
state conservation commission to place
a large herd of elk on the Wisconsin
game farm at Trout Lake Villas county
The order will be placed with the au-
thorities Of Yellowstone National park
and if it can be9filled it is expected by
the conservation commission the ship
ment will be made within a few days
The Consignment will be full
carload and will come by express to
insure safe delivery,
In 1914 Wisconsin FRIENDS OF wild
life propagation raised fund to be
used in bringing elk from Wyoming
to the state. The game warden's de-
partment obtained twenty eight from
the Yellowstone country. They were
shipped by freight. The weather was
inclement and nearly all the animals
died on the journey. Ofthe herd only
two females survive. A male elk has
been presented to the state by Charles
Comiskey, Chicago. and these three ely
are the only ones in Wisconsin.
The fund raised two years ago was
was not used, as the state game he.
partment refused to pay the cost of
transportation because of the death
of SO large part of the shipment, The
sum of S266.55 is available and is in
the hands of LorenZ Frankfurth Hard
ware Co who was volunteer treasurer
of the fund. The money raised in 1914
is available at once, said Nr.Frank-
furth. I heartily approve of using it
toward the cost of placing elk IN the

state game farm at Trout lake. 1t was
raised for that purpose, and there is
no other purpose for which it can be
used under the terms on which it was
donated.
G. N. Wagner, real estate who was
chairman Of the committee that raised
the money, approved the plan to de-
Aote it to the cost Of bringing a. car.
load of elk to Wisconsin.
1--WE raised the money for that pur-
posen he said at was put in the
hands of Mr.. Franfurth as tresanrer,
and we are ready at any minute to
use it to meet the cost of stocking
the northern Wisconsin forests with
elk. / am glad the conservation COM
mission has decided to place an order
for the animJls'i
We took up the plan Tuesday, said
w. e. Barber member of the con-
servation commission, and will place
an ORDER Immediately for carload of
elk-fifty-five or sixty. [ think they
can be shipped at once. and if so, COM
ing by express, they can be on the
state game farm in thirty days. Yellow
stone park is overrun with elk, as re-
suit OF strict prohibition of hunting,
and there is no reason why Wisconsin
should not have hundreds OF elk in D.
few years. We shall also order some
moose, and We hope that this mag
nifcent animal will soon be found in
the north woods in large numbers.
OF course, strict legislation to protect
both animals will be passed proba-
bly, calling for fine of $500. or y
stiff jail sentence.
