“VAMPIRE” AT THE BONITA
FRIDAY, JULY THE 7
The Chicago Herald Declares Theda
Bara is the Modern Medusa
Everybody who can should attend
the first service of the combined
congregations of Carrollton at the
First Baptist church Sunday night,
July 9th. This service was post
poned from last Sunday evening.
The pastor will preach.
The pastor was at Woolsey last
.Sabbath to preach the funeral of
Mr. Ernest J. Snead, brother of
our esteemed superintendent.
Twenty years ago Ernest Snead was
cjterk of old Antioch church in
Fayette county when a new pastor
was called to this, his second charge,
and during all the intervening time
he has prized as invaluable the
frinedship of this noble Christian
gentleman—as pure as the driven
snow, as gentle as a lady, if it be
possible, as tender as a mother, as
loving as John, as courageous as
Daniel, as patient as Job, as true as
Joseph, and as loyal as Paul. His
like is not seen every day. Out
most cordial sympathies to his
heart-broken wife and daughter,
and to all his dear ones.
Next Wednesday evening the mid
week hour will be given to a study
of Proverbs, third chapter. These
studies have proved very interesting
and it is hoped that the attendance
will be large at the next meeting.

“Can it be that fate has reincar

Scientists have questioned this most
extraordinary of women to secure
fresh evidence to support their half-

propriate little song, “The Tulip
and Rose.”
Col. Oglesby, of McDonough, clad
in a priestly robe, performed the
ceremony with all the exruciating
grace and felicity of a regular min
ister. It might well be called i
“rainbow wedding” from the vari
colored gowns worn by the brides
maids and bride.

Elizabeth McClellan, and Opal May
nard, all of Carrollton, entered
