GREA! ALAMO
SHOWS COMING

The great Alamo shows, which will
open their weeks engagement in this
city May 9th, is large and most pre-
tentious carnival organization, in fact
the largest of its kind en- tour.
Fifteen new and novel, as we'll as
pleasing and amusing attractions and
rides, occupy most beautifully and
well lighted Midway, with its thous-
ands of electric lights. The show car
ries a we'll organized concert band
under the able leadership of one of
the best known musical directors in
the outdoor show world, Park 3. Prem
tiss.
The main show, or the big show as
most call it, the trained animal and
hippodrome circus royal, is certainly
all that the name implies, with its sew
en- big acts in number, including the
trained high school horses, high school
ponies, riding monkeys, the Salome
dancing bear, tableau horses and the
big sensational lion tanning act, with
Miss Ernestine La Roes, considered
the peer of all animal trainers, who
feeds them raw meat from her bare
hands, making them form pyramids,
Jump through hoops of fire and pre-
sents most daring and thrilling fight
for life in large steel cage with the
four man eating beasts. This act
alone is worth the time and money ex-
| pended.
The other main attraction, the un-
derground Chinatown and Barbary
Coast. showing how in real life the
users of opium, the morphine needle
and the cocaine users live their lives
of shame and degradation. The fam
Gus dance halls of old Barbary Coast,
where hundreds of girls first met and
took the step that leads to shame and
suicide, where the "chumps" as famil-
iarly called in the underworld are
''taken" for their hard earned cash
and bank rolls, also the different gam,
bling games in full operation, and the
wholesale hop and drug joints in full
sway. If you miss paying this attrac-
ton visit while in the city you will
have missed one of the main attrac.
tions direct from the San Francisco
and San Diego fairs, and in fact the
only and original production en- tour
The other attractions include tn,
big circus side shows and freak mu
scum gathered from all parts Of tn
old and new world under one canva
and for one price of admission, fiji
teen to sixteen attractions and dis

IAOVEhIISTS' T|THES

Systematic Giving Based On Individu-

Work OF the Church.

THE Second Advent of Christ, the
chief theme of the New Testament, Is
at once the most grand and awful
event that this world will ever ex-
nerience. 1t is the elimination OF
the plan of salvation. for then the
saints receive their reward" asserted
Evangelist r. f. Farley. of Newport
News. at the Adventist encampment
,ast night in a discourse on the sec
oud Coming of Christ The atteho-
anca each night so far has been on
the increase over the previous hisnt
so that extra chairs have been secured
to make the visitors comlortaote.
Pastor w. c. Moftert, the president
delivered mis- repor. Of the work IN
thu Virginia conference. All lines OF
endeavor and finance showed a =
ctded Increase. Adcertists belieVe
that one-tenth of their net income Is
holy unto the Lord" so this is set
aside for the support of the work OF
the ministry. The 1.-THE during the
past year showed full fifty per cent
Increase over the previous year. while
the other lines were in proportion.
The depart m entail secretaries render
ed their reports showing what nad
been accom- iiShed during the year ny
them. These were followed ny the
reports of the ministers. Every min
lister is held accountable, to the con-
ference for everything he does, and
from the conference he receives a
fixed salary without reference to the
amount of money the church where
he is located pays in to the treasury.
Mr.. Farley last night stated that
the coming of Christ is an event to
be expected in the very near future
that He will appear in person, and
take back TO heaven, from whence lie
comes all Of the righteous who have
ever lived. that the wicked will be
slain by the brightness of His coming.
and that the earth will be left "A vast
desolate wilderness. In part the
speaker said
ITO the Christian. the second com e
ing of Jesus is. or ought to be. the
most welcome event that could pos
sibJy occur But it seems that most
Christians are anxious that it will
not come in their day. Surely this
can be for no other reason than that
these reluctant ones are not ready TO
meet Him,
The services will continue during
