STRAW HAT "FANS

Special U. S. Envoy Lind and Wife

WARNING

Liable to Arrest If They Don't Change Lids By September Seventh.

"I'll arreBt any man who wears a straw hat after September 7," said Chief of Police Oormon this morning. "If any one commits this offense, he will have to appear before me and explain why he haBn't purchased a new fall hat." The hour has struck. The passing bell marking the decline of empires and the eclipse of nations has tolled the requiem of the summer headgear of all mankind. This all happened today. The winsome panama, with its Individual lines, the high crowned sailor with the pert little bow behind, and the fresh, new lid purchased two weeks ago at 85 cents, stand at last

on a common level, for all caste dis-1

tinctions fade in a time like this and one straw hat is just as good as another. Today is September 1, the date upon which the haberdashers issue their annual edict, calling upon the rest of the world to chuck the straw hat into the garbage can and call around to inspect the new fall styles.

A BIG ENROLLMENT

Arrangements for a six weeks' membership campaign for the First M. E. Sunday school have been completed by the committees appointed for that purpose and beginning next Sunday a contest between the men and women of the church will be held, the men under the leadership of Prof. D. D. Ramsey, and the women under the leadership of Mrs. D. S. Brown. The losing side is to give a banquet to the winners at the termination of the contest. Special plans by the leaders of the men's classes are being made to make their side victorious. The officers of the Sunday school have offered the main room of the church if they can

keep it there throughout the contest.

I Special speakers will be invited to apI pear before the men's class each Suni day and discuss topics of interest. Next Sunday the attraction in this line

They were taken on the spot, while cannons roared and the deadly hail of bullets fell without cessation. From Fort Sumter to Appomattox, Brady went through four years of warfare. He was guarded night and day by Allan Pinkerton and the Secret Service.
