graduating class last Sunday evening.
His subject was "Tho True Mission of
Life, and the Cost of Its Accomplish

"He saved others; Himself He could
not save." The words, though spoken
by His enemies, voice a groat primal
truth of His kingdom; true that in sav
ing others, Himself He could not save.
And not only is it truo of Him, but of
all who shall follow Him in tho regen
eration. Tho singing was uudor tho

tho northwestern part of tho county.
A few men up there seem to think
they cau rnn things to suit themselves.
Tho county attorney did well in not
taking hold of this case, thereby saving
tho cotinty a lot of costs. Tho ring
leaders in the prosecution of this caso
woro Julo Horn, L. C. Keith, O. A.
Whelan and A. P. Johnson, nnd tho
