to the ladies who prepared the

Evangelistic Services Continue

The evangelistic services being
held at the Methodist church are
attracting a great deal of interest,
In spite of the inclemency of the
weather large audiences are in at
tendance. Rev. DIR. Layton. in
his eloquent, impressive manner,
delivered two great sermons Sun
day morning and evening, and is
continuing night after night with
growing interest. His discourse
Sunday morning on Conservation"
was intense, practical aud set forth
in very forcible manner the i'm
portance of thorough conservation
of all we are and have to the larger
interests Of the kingdom. Evening
sermon Popular Excuses of the
Day." was listened to with deep
interest while DIR. Layton, by un"
answerable argument, severe but
truthful denunciation; with biting
sarcasm and effective ridicule,
utterly demolished the excuses of
sinners showing the suicidal folly
of perilling ones soul by rejecting
Christ,
Bro. Johnson, the evangelistic
singer, has sung his way into the
hearts of all his hearers. He is a
good leader of chorus and is do
ing fine work with his young
Booster Choir" showing he is
greatly interested in his work.
The meetings will continue thru
out the week. You cannot afford
to miss a service.

Electricity For Farmers

Sumner is soon to be supplied
with electric current from the
Brookfeld plant, a contract to
that effect having been entered in
to Monday. The Sumner concern
will extend it's line from the M.
Fall corner north to the j. G..
Clinefelter corner and the Brook
field company will hook onto the
Laclede line at the Deininger
corner southeast of town and
build a line to the Clinefelter
corner where the two lines will
connect through a substation.
This will give the farmers be-
between Laclede and the Cline
felter place a fine opportunity to
get on the service. Work on the
new line will be commenced just
as soon as the material can be
placed on the ground. Farmers
on the Laclede end of the line are
invited to see P. w. Markham at
Brookfleld or the president of the
Laclede company at this Office in
regard to rates and condition on
which they can secure the service.
We are now in a position to make
a definite proposition

leads in the amount of work that
has been done in the winter clubs.
They haye finished one full course
and are ready to take up the second
course in sewing.
In Brookfield in the third ward
we expect to organize a club real
soon. This club intends to make
and sell their products both in
sewing and canning. The proceeds
are to go toward the beautifying
of the grounds in the new third
ward school and buying equipment
in the domestic science rooms.
This club has the hearty cooperat-

this good cause along, With the
proper cooperation other clubs in
the county will be organized.

AUTHORIZE CLOSING OF
 IL &. EMPLOYMENT OFFICES

J. c. White received telegram last evening from Phoenix, in which Mir. Davies, the director general for Ari- zona. authorizes the closing Of gov eminent employment offices and sol dier bureaus of employment. MT. White states that some 5000 men have secured employment through the local office, which he believes is an envia- ble record for Bisbee. The appropria- tion for this work was only $1S0 a month for all expenses and if it had not been for the Red Cross and other welfare organ,za- tions the local office would have been handicapped. The appropriation for this work was not made by con- gross and so the closing of the offices has been directed by the director gen eral at Washington.

Hurt, Six
 Horses Killed By
 Douglas Lightning

Bisbee was visited with a heavy shower last evening which consider ably relieved the warm spell the city has had during the past week
 At Douglas there was a much heav- fer storm along with some electrical disturbances which killed six horses at Camp Harry Jones and injured six of the men who were out on the picket line. The streets of Douglas were flooded with some two feet of water which filled the basements of several stores and ran into the Copper Queen store, the Club cafe and all the stores which were below the curb line.
 Electricity hit the flag pole on the J. c. Penny building scattering pole and brick from the building over the street in front of the store. The lightning which hit and killed the horses made a hole about six feet deep in the ground.
 The six soldiers Were unconscious from the effect of the shock for some time and late last evening two of the men had not as yet regained consci- ousness.
 The rain commenced about o'clock in the afternoon and continued to come down till about o'clock.
