CURTIS CHURCH REVIVAL Rev. R. W. Thiot Preached Strong Sermon Last Night on "Sin.” Rev. R, W. Thiot preached to a good slxed congregation last night on "Sin.” He said that when a man commits sins God finds him and punishes him He said that man always tries to hide hts sin. That it Is often the ease that men get Into the church to hide their sins; that they might hide their sin from men, but that they could not hide them from God. Adam tried to hide himself; David and Arhan tried to hide their etna, and Saul condoned his sin, but God always found them out and punished them, he said. He said that no matter how small the sin might be In one's sight nor how secret it might he that God was going to put Ills finger on It. Mr. Thiot Is conducting hts own meeting and the Holy Spirit la there In power. Meetings are held every evening at 8; SO. Child Cross! FevsnahT Sick?

FOUND BODIES OE M NEGROES Probably Over 100 Indians Killed in Race Riot. Wierd Story From Quatemala. New Orleans. —The United Fruit Co., today W3K attempting to confirm by wireless a strange story of a race riot on one of Its plantations in Guan temala, in which it is reported 64 ne groes an I prabably 100 Indians were killed, i-'moulderlng race hatred of the native Indiat’s for negroes, in flamed by one of the negroes win ning the Indian girl, Nazada. from he' father at dice and his refusal to sell her hack to a native is reported to have caused the trouble. The negro, Clarence Williams, hart been employed on the Teuahuena farm, one o; the United Fruit planta tions In the Montagna River district according to the story, and had In curred the hatred of many of the In dians because of his success with dice. As the story goes, Christofo Zurello, a half breed Loss of a neighboring farm, had wanted Nazada asa wife for his son and was Incensed when h'> learned that she had become the property of the negro. Zurello offer ed the negro thirty pesos for the girl. Mutilated With Knives. The negro refused. Soon after Williams left for his work Saturday, May 9th. three men appeared at the shanty.

DORSEY AND THE GOVERNORSHIP Protest Being Made Against Injecting the Leo Frank Case Into Politics. Atlanta, Ga. —A state-wiri* protest Is being mad* against a movement which is unaer way In Atlanta to put Hugh Dorsey in the gubernatorial face and mane the Mary Phagan murder case a political Issue in the coming primary. Strong politic:)l voices are also raised against It here in Mr. Dorsey’s home community, and present Indications are that in the face of this feeling Mr. Dor sey's proposed candidacy may not ma terialize. The point is marie that if Mr. Dorsey runs at all, he would have to run on the Frank case as a platform, since he has nevtA- taken any part in the public or political !1f« of the state and is known to the public at large purely and solely through his connection with this single case as solicitor general and prosecuting attorney. To Inject the Frank case Into politics. It Is believed by many people here, would he harmful to the welfare of Georgia, hurting the state at home and In the eyes of the world. How widely that opin ion is concurred in In other' sections of Georgia may be Judged from the tone of the press. Says the Washington, Georgia, Report er. with its usual conservatism, “we have great respect for Hugh Dorsey as a lawyer, but we fall to see where his conviction of Leo Frank In any way qualifies him for the governorship." The Macon News, under a title “po litical Accidents." says, "Dorsey may be, but he has not yet r**oven himself a big man. He has never taken a big part In the public life of the state In a political sense he has been created by series of unusual circumstances. The Frank case alone has made h m.” “We must by all means keep the Frank case out of the gubernatorial race." says the Savannah Press "It would he unfortunate In many* ways for Mr Dorsey to become a can didate for governor Just now." says the Athens Banner. "It would he unfortunate for him and for the state." Continue Contempt Case. —The contempt case against W J. Burns, the defective and Dan T.ehon, his employe, set for bearing be fore Judge Ben H Hill of the superior court here Tuesday were continued un til later In the week on request of coun sel for the defendants.

He was defeat ed with apparent ease by “Young” Tubbs, a hoy player from a nearby course at I.ittlestone-on-Sea.

The Englishman was never in danger thereafter At the turn Ouimet was one down and Tubbs finished the with 2 up. The card: Out— Ouimet 554 744 535—42 Tubbs 554 443 555—40 In— Ouimet 554 455 355—41—83 Tubbs 453 545 464—40—80 The defeat of Ouimet cast a gloom over the American contingent but the cloud was partially dispersed shortly afterwards by the brilliant victories of Frederick Herreshoff, New York, and Harold Webber, Toledo.

Sandwich, Eng.—The defeat of the young American open champion proved as great a sensation as had that of Jerome D. Travers, American amateur champion. It had been thought that Ouimet would have no difficulty in disposing of the com paratively unknown and youthful Tubbs. Ouimet’* weakness on the green proved his undoing. On several oc casions he was short of the hole and he occasionally overran it. Sometimes he missed easy putts. At the last hole he failed to get down a three foot put. Herreshoff. after a weak start in his match had little difficulty in dis posing of J. R. Platt by four up and two to play. Harold Weber completely outclassed K. M. Carlisle. H. F. D.
