 Since this revival started, one of the regular attendants asked anoth- CT: Why and how is it that pr. Copeland holds the attention of this audience so well. There is not the attention during his entire deliver ances?"

And besides, he is an elo- quent man. of magnetic personality and soon inspires the deepest confi- dence."
 Services were held at 10 o'clock this morning and tonight a great audience is expected to attend as the interest is growing all the time. Charles Butler and the choir are singing the old gospel songs in a way that is appreciated by the con- gregation which frequently joins in the singing.

The people of Lubbock were some
what surprised Saturday morning Of
las, week when daylight came to find
that the ground was almost covered
with snow. The fall continued al
most through the entire day. but
melted as soon as il hit the ground.
The fall amounted to quite nice
precipitation and all went into the
ground. Coming on top Of the rains
that fell few days before forced the
moisture down. and gave us nice
top season. II was not cold enough
to Kill vegetation except In spots and
the crop gathering goes merrily on.
Lubbock people have been busy this
week preserving and otherwise saw
ing all their garden truck. ETC., and
there has been quite large quantity
raised this year In this part OF the
country.

II supplants their last brief com
munication saying armistice terms

detail the governmental changes
which have taken place in Germany
as evidence that the Kaiser has been
deprived Of ali power Of making war

Wilson was working today on the re-
ply to the last note from Vienna, in
which the Austrian government ac-
cepted all Of the principles and con-
ditions of President Wilson's com

Of the health rules. printed in the

While the sting of death has been
felt by many Of our families who
have lost relatives in other parts Of
the country, our little city has up To
the present writing only experienced
two deaths. and considering the num-
Der Of cases that have been in the

light. This is possibly on account Of
the splendid climatic conditions and
the sanitary condition Of the city
and also the precautions of the
