A freshman opened the door for
them and Judith found herself in a
great square hall filled with young
men in dinner coats. talking, smok-

from little morning room which
evidently housed the drunken vic.

Someone dashed off with her wraps
to the chaperon's room, and Eric led
her into the living room. The hush
that fell upon groups as her blue
and copper glory passed was flatter-

A youngstcr. in flame-colored
dress brought her heels abruptly to
earth from the transports OF wild
clog dance on the hearthstone. Ju-

were other goods cnsconced here and

and divans. They looked ut Judith
curiously when the dancer cast an
embarrassed glance in her direction.

shortly.
The whitc-haircd Dresden china

came down the stairs with mincing
steps, and the guests were brought
one by one to be presented to her.

ASKBURN CAMP MEETING
WILL BEGIN JULY FIRST

On Thursday night next, the first
day of July, will commence the regu-
lar annual old time Holiness Camp
Meeting under the tabernacle on the
camp ground in Ashburn. 1t will last
ten days. The old time religion in all
its fullness will be preached and the
songs our fathers and mothers sang,
together with some new ones will be
sung in the power and demonstration
of the spirit. Modernism, evolution
and higher criticism and all other
"isms" including fanaticism will
sneak out of sight before the glad
shouts eminating from hearts made
glad by the love of God shed abroad
in them. Blues, perplexities of life,
care, worry, dissatisfaction and prob
lens of life and the awful problem of
sin can be solved satisfactorily under
such conditions. AS usual large at
tendance will come from the sur
rounding counties who picnic on the
grounds, while ample provision for
board and lodging at a minimum cost
will be made for those coming from
a distance. Address G. E. Morrison,
Ashburn, Ga, for particulars.

SUSPECT In OREGON
MAIL TRAIN ROBBERY
IS HELD In DOUGLAS

Douglas, Ga.-Suspected of being
one of the three De Autremont broth
ers, who are alleged to have dyna'
mited train near Siskiyou, Oregon,
and killed four members of the crew
on October II, 1925, youth answer
ing the general description of the De
Autremont twins Roy and Ray, is
being held at Douglas, Ca, for iden-
LITIGATION by postoffice authorities,
according to a wire received Monday
by Joe P. johnson, postoffice in
spector in charge of the Atlanta di-
vision.
The suspect, however, insists that
he was in the state prison at Weth-
ersfield, Conn.,, at the time of the
crime and his statement is being
checked by postoffice inspectors.
The youth was spotted by the post
master at Alma, Ga, through cir
cular isued by federal authorities and
was arrested Saturday in Blackshear,
Ga, later being transferred to Doug
las.
Since the crime, the De Autremont
brothers have escaped one of the
most widespread searches ever insti-
tuted by government authorities.
Rewards aggregating $4,000 are
offered for the capture of the broth
ers who are indicted in Jackson
county, Oregon, for murder and in
the United States court at Portland
for train robbery. A Southern Pa
cifc passenger train was held up just
beyond Siskiyou, the mail car dyna-
mited, the clerk burned to death and
the engineer, fireman and brakeman
shot. An express charge of dyna-
mite left the mail car in such shape
that the bandits were unable to enter
it.
