The new Sunday school rooms at the
First Presbyterian chureh were filled
early Sunday morning, and the dedi
cation exercises were carried out in
detail, as previously announced. In
response to the roll call, each class
arose and repeated a watchword verse.
The -singing by the primary class was
exceptionally good, and deserves spec
ial mention. A number of songs and
recitations were rendered bv this well
trained department. The pastor reaa
a letter from S. P. McDivitt, and Col
Robert Bingham, with an appropriate
address delivered the keys to the
pastor.
The pastor responded, presenting in

Another Interesting Bible study was
conducted this mfcrnfng by Dr. D. M.
Stearns at the First Baptist church. Th
names of God in the Bible was his topic
and in connection with them the deey
significance of numbers in the Scrip
tures. A striking feature of these meet
ings is the absence of all formality.the
audiences have become accustomed to
being addressed as a class, and respond
to questions often tfiven out in rapid
succession. Many interesting passages
or bcripture are thus fixed in the mind,
and as the teaching is progressive, ad
vance constantly to the deeper things
of Bible truth, many are conscious of
daily benefit, and all exhibit a lively ap
preciation of the method adopted.
In this morning's stady Dr. Stearns
touched briefly upon the "eooking
stove" features of church life, depend
ence upon "socials" for interest, and
upon bazaars, fairs, concerts, etc., for
financial support, founding his remarks
uporrthe concluding verses of Genesis,
14th chapter. Here he fook the position
that if this chapter alone were faithful
ly read and expounded once or twic
year, to congregations who believe In
"the most high God, possessor of heaven
and earth," there would be no such en
' tertainments taken for God's work
The woman's prayer meeting will
assemble promptly at 10:30 tomorrow
morning, and will be led by Miss Lottie
Price of the Baptist church.
These meetings are proving a most
helpful adjunct to Dr. Steam's work.
Their object is very simple, to wait
upon God in prayer, and prepare the
minds of those who are so deeply in
terested for the truths they are to re
ceive from the leader. No distinct effort
at Bible teaching is intended but reci
tations of the promises of the Scripture
is always expected. Services this even

Control of session, separate class

At 3:30 in the Sunday school rooms,
Lr. I'ninips again addressed those
who assembled, on"The Graded Course
of Study." In this Intensely interest
ing address, the speaker made a stronsf
plea for the storing of the child's mem
ory with the Word of God itself, and
that they be taught the grand old
hymns. The speaker then showed that
the Bible as a w hole must be tauaht to
the children. He developed the details
i of a system for teaching: Bible histo
jry. Bible doctrine and Bible literature,
I to beginners.

The doctor's style is eminently prac

punctuated with the earnest question.
"What ine you going to do ubout it?"
The session of the Sunday school in

Birmingham. Ala., Sept. 1. A terri
ble wreck occurred this morning short
ly after 9 o'clock, one mil.' west of Ber
ry. Ala., a coal town UO miles east of
Birmingham on the Soutlern railw-iy.
The official report says one white man
and 25 negroes were killed outright.
From 20 to 50 negro 33 were seriously
hurt.
The train was bringing an excursion
from Greenville, Miss., to Birmingham,
and was wrecked on a rough part of
the road. The rails spread and the en

Constantinople, Sept.l The report cir
cuiatea in tne united states by a news
agency that the Turkish government
addressed an abrupt note to United
States Minister Leishman saying it
absolutely refused further to discuss
responsibility for the capture by brig
ands of Miss Ellen M. Stone, the
American missionary, as the outrage
was not committed on Turkish ter
ritory, is not true. As a mat
ter of fact the question of the
porte's responsibility Is indisputable,
since the capture, payment of ransom,
and liberation of the captives all oc
curred on Turkish territory. The In
sufficiency of the efforts displayed by
the Turkish authorities has been a
subject of complaint by the United
States legation.

tucky soil the best wheat in the wide
world. Only the plumpest and choicest
berries are selected. These are thor
oughly cleaned and then by a special
process of gradual reduction are con
verted into flour. The cream of the
flour is separated and sifted through
the finest silk bolting cloth, giving it a
velvety softness seldom found in ordi
nary flour. That's "Clifton," and that's
why it is a perfect flour the finest pro
duct expert millers and modern mills
can make from the best wheat grain.
"Clifton" Is a flour of quality at a
reasonable price. You can pay as
much and get an inferior flour, but you
cannot get a better flour, whatever you
pay.
