Revival Meetings Closed.
The union revival meetings
which hae been under wa in the
tent sin:e earl) in August, dosed
Monday night. Mr. McCrucken
the evangelist from Sarcoxic, left
last week having engagement!, at
other places that he could not put
off. The U cal ministers have
been conducting the services since.
The series of meetings have been
of benefit to the community, not
only in the number of conversions
recorded, but in awakening the
church membership of the town
to its duty and in uniting it as it
has never been united before, the
meetings being conducted jointly
by all the churches.
A marked feature of the meet
ings was that of the 40 conver
sions nearly all were adults, most
of them heads of families, and
two or three more than 60 years
of age.
Real Estate Transfers.
F. W. Rumble ha traded his
beautiful home on South Main
street, consisting! of 10 teres and
imnrovements. to C. I Awick for
ft t V
a 160 acre farm seven miles north
east of Jasper The Rumble home
is valued at Sgooo and the Awick
farm at $ti 000.
Marsh Deardorff sold the More

He has another good farm west of
town, on which he lives Mr.

Taxes Raised.
The county board of equaliza
tion met last week at the county
seat and increased the tax levies
of many Jasper County merchants
and business houses.
The board is composed of the
county court, the county clerk,
the county surveyor and the coun
ty assessor.
The local merchants affected aie
as follows:
Dr. Schooler, increased from
S400 to $500.
Crow Mercantile Co., increased
from $800 to Si coo.
Chandler & Son, increased from
S3400 to S3000.
J. D Harbur, increased from
$1000 to S2000
The board of equalization will
meet again on Monday, September
33. At that time they will hold a
j'oint session with the board of ap

A Question of Policy.
Not infrequently some fellow
with less brains than he ought to
have will do something foolish
and sometimes commit an act of
malicious meanness in this neigh
borhood and somebody comes
ulong and wants to know why wo
don't "write him up." Tliu
trouble about that is that the
newspaper can't do those fellows
iustice without embarrassing an
innocent wife or other relative.
Such matters do not add to the
sum of human Information any
how. and except in aggravated
cases we will pay no attention

Warning.
The district supeuntendent of
the Missouri Pacific writes the
mayor that complaints are being
made by trainmen that bos and
young men have a habit of jump
ing the trains and riding to the
outskirts of town, Besides the
fact that this thing is absolutely
senseless and inexcusable, there is
an ordinance forbidding it. and
the City Marshal is authorized to
enforce the ordinance.

BAPTISTS MEET IN JASPER
One Hundred and Fifty Members
of Association Spend Three
Days Here.
The Spring River Baptist Asso
nation i losed last Friday one of
the most interesting sessions it lias
ccr had. It covered a period of
three days. The introductory sc,r-
unon was by J. D. Chappolle, Cal
vary Church, Joplin, after which
the meeting was called to order by
Moderator P. B. Kinnell of Webb
City Churrh. Quite a large dele
gation of messengers from the va
rious churches were seated. Most
of the churches reported a good
years work. Missionary Hider's
report was encouraging. He will
probably remain in the association
another year. Several state and
other general workers were with
us, and were appreciated. "The
Spring River Baptist," a new four
pjyc paper devoted to the inter
cstb of the association of churches,
was presented to the association.
Alter the usual routine of In si
ness sermons were preached by O.
Parmer, a former pastor of the
ihurch, C. F. Wlutlock. of Jophn
second churrh, and Bilhe Bain f
Carl Junction.
The entertainment
was superb, many assuring us that
, Jasper could not be beaten in that
, tine. The meeting one year hence
will convene with the Webb City
church.
