a capacity Of 359 horsepower in ex-
cess of the unit which has been sup
plying Maysville with light and power

new plant With the installation of
this new unit the company Is provid-
ed with two individual plants within
one building either Of which carries
the city's demand with a considerable
surplus These plants may be oper-
ated together or separately. Either
one of the plants will furnish more
than the present demand of Mays
vile and the company is installing the
new plant primarily as a protection in
emergencies and with its installation
the old electric plant which the COM
pany has been holding for emergen-
cies, may be dismantled.
The two units in the new plant now
give to the local electric company
1850 horsepower or 1850 X. w. which
is one of the most powerful plants in
any city anything like the size of
Maysville in the country.
All connections are expected to be
made this week and there will be
practically no intereference with the
public. 1t was necessary to shut

FIFTY ADDITIONS
TO CHURCH IN
GREAT revival
Special Services VIII Be Continued at
Christian Church Through
Tuesday Evening-Suc-
cess Marked.

Just as there are outstanding
periods in the life Of the individual, or
turning points In the industrial or
civic life Of city or community, 80
too there are certain periods in the
life of a church which stand out prom
inently and mark new era in spirit
ual growth and influence. Positive re-
suits In any field of human endeavor
are only attainable through concen-
trated effort and an unyielding devo-
ton to governing principles. The
church Of the living God should be
beacon light In the community and
should stand for only such principles
as insure the highest standards of
Christian citizenship. That these very
desirable conditions have been met in
the evangelistic services at the Chris
tian church the past three weeks the
large crowds in attendance at about
all the services and the very happy
results attained bear the best pos
sible testimony.
Not in many years past if at all
has this church been so thoroughly
aroused or such a fine spirit of good
fellowship and devotion to duty been
evidenced. All other churches In the
city have been represented In the
audiences and the hearty cooperation
Of their various pastors have been a
strong factor in making this most
successful meeting from every stand
point. The preaching has been of the
highest character and its aim at all
times has been to reach the hearts of
men and women through an appeal to
their reason and to those intellectual
and moral forces inherent in human
ity. The response has been most en-
couraging, about fifty people having
united with the church with the pros
pect Of others yet to come. Large audi
ences were out Sunday morning and
evening services and it has been
thought well to continue through
Monday and Tuesday evening as the
interest aroused seems to Justify this
conclusion.
A reception will be given to the
new members Immediately following
the sermon Tuesday night and all
friends and members of the church
are most cordially invited to be pres
ent and help to make this great
event in the church's history. Fine
singing under Brother L. A. Britton's
splendid leadership is a strong factor

cese was celebrated Sunday.
The occasion was observed nall
parishes throughout the diocese but
especially in the churches which are
located in the city of Lexington. There
the Sunday services will be followed

After serving his deaconate at All
Saints church, Cleveland, Bishop Bur-
ton was for seven years associated
with his father at All Saints and st.
Marks churches, Cleveland Later he
moved to Richmond, Va, where he
served for ten years as pastor of the
historical "old mother church, st.
Johns, where Patrick Henry made his
speech of independence.
From st. Johns he came to St. An
drew's church, Louisville, where he
remained until his elevation to the
episcopate.
The conservation services were held
on January 30, 1896, in St. Andrews
church, Louisville, in the presence of
seven of the episcopate among whom
were the late Right Reverend T. U.
Dudley, then Bishop of the Diocese of
Kentucky, and the Right Reverend
Boyd Vincent, who preached at the
morning anniversary service held in
Christ Church Cathedral Sunday.
Bishop Burton removed to Lexing-
ton March 12, 1896. The following year

Elizabeth, the "Good Queen Bess"
Of England, whose reign from 1853 to
1903 was one of the most glorious
periods In the history Of her country,
was the daughter Of Henry VIII and
his second wife, the famous Anne
Boleyn. When Anne fell from favor
and was beheaded, the young princess
was declared illegitimate and for a
time had an unhappy life. Finally,
however, she was given her place In
the succession, after Edward and
Mary, and during Edwards reign she
lived peaceful life. While Mary was
on the throne Elizabeth was more or

we'll known that she had been brought
up Protestant, but at Mary's death
in 1858 her right to the throne was

English Book of Common Prayer and
asserted the royal supremacy over the
church, but she avoided fanaticism
