Rev. W. L. Walker, the noted pastor-evangelist of Danville, Ky., will assist the pastor and a large chorus choir will furnish the music. The hours for service Sunday are 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. and Sunday afternoon at the court house a special service will be held at 4 o'clock; a male Girls' Contest Last Evening The girls' recitation contest was held at the high school auditorium last evening and a large crowd greeted the sweet young girls. The music which Interspersed the readings was unsuallir (VAArl on/1 nn/tinnoo *j 6wwv? MM?? vnc auu'cutc wns atwciltive and interested. Miss Thelma Hodge, one of the high school contestants gave "The Legend , of King Nilas" and was awarded the Muifcau medal. This* med?l flr.fchteff each year by Hon. R. P. Morgan to the high school girl giving the most perfect recitation. The medal which has heretofore been given by Mr. A. B. Brannon to the grammar grade contestants has been discontinued by Mr. Brannon. but a lady who wishes her name withheld presents a medal to the grammar grade contestants and last evening this was won by Miss Jennie Harris. | Both medals were presented the1 lucky girls by Mrs. W. T. Benty, who made a pleasing and gracious presentation. Disgraceful Conduct Last evening during the recitation contest held at the high school auditorium, several young men about town started to "show off" and disturbed the speakers and the audience, and, in general, showed their long ears. The faculty soon picked the leaders and they are being watched for further trouble. If the young men cannot behave decently when they attend public gatherings, they ought to be invited to stay away until they learn a few lessons, or rather they ought to be called out publicly and made an example of, or sent to police headquarters. It is an outrage that every public gathering is disturbed by these thoughtless, misguided boys and if things don't change rapidly, they are headed down hill at an alarming gait. The authorities have suffered enough at the hands of this gang and tonight will have city policemen stationed in the building and ground to protect the speakers. Now, if they want to start something, let everybody fall in and help them to a perfectly nice room in the city lock-up. Special Meeting of Martha Chapter Martha Chapter, No. 79, O. E.

C., May 25.?Ne relations are expected from the ai cnymous letter received by Attorni Generajln the Weeks' investigation < the story of Walter H.

Ward, millionaire baker's son, t< day resigned as police commission* of New Rochelle. In the early part of the day tl only word that came from War sources was a denial of the repoi that he would resign under fire. Bi thtis afternoon shortly before his a1 torney notified the New Rochelle ai thorities that his resignation was i the mail, a man close to the Ward told the army of reporters mobilize here that they might as well go honn as "the family has the case sewe up tighter than a drum." When this was repeated to Distrk Attorney Weeks of Westchester cour ty, who earlier in the day asserte that he had not "swallowed hook, lin and sinker" of the story told by War of having fired in self-defense, *h pounded the table in front of him an roared: "Sewed up, eh ? Well, let me se you fellows right. Nobody can sto us. We are going through with thi thing, running down every possibl angle." Nevertheless, the public remaine as ignorant of the secret hold whic Peters and his band of alleged black mailers may have had on Ward, an on last Saturday, when the latter sur rendered a week after Peters ha been found shot to death near th Kenisco reservoir, where Ward claim ed to have motored for a tryst an been forced into a pistol battle. Mr. Weeks asserted that if War set up a plea of selfe-defense h would have to tell the whole stor of the-blackmailing. Asked if he ha seen any of the 'blackmailing" letter in substantiation of Ward's story, th district attorney replied that he ha seen two "threatening" letters?type written and signed "C. R." In connection with a report that th coroner's inquest might be postpone several weeks, Mr. Weeks said: "The coroner will hold no inques until the sheriff is through with hi investigation because I intend to hav all the facts brought out in the open.

The mem bers of the agricultural bloc of the i senate, who congratulated themselves f last night in 1 elief that the uassage s by the house of legislation amending t the act creating the federal reserve f system would bring ubout the elimi ination of W. P. G. Harding as gov1 ernor of the federal reserve board, ? may have laughed too soon, it devel ops today. ? The amendments, while requiring i the president in tilling the next vacancy to recognize agriculture, ? which means to appoint a "dirt'' farmi tr, also increase the number of apr pointive members of the board from 1 P.ve to six. It is pointed out today that it would be easy for the president to appoint a farmer to the new pos:1 lion created and also reappoint Govi ernor Harding. i It develops today that the appeal in behalf of Governor Harding will be as insistent ami quite as strong a< the appeal against him. As a rule > the members of the finance committee of the senate and the banking and ' currency committee of the house not only advocate the reappointment of Governor Harding, but in a measure demand it as a vindication against the bitter criticism which has been directed against him. In addition the banking and business interests of the country are determined, if possible, to retain Governor Harding as a member of the board. On the contrary, certain members cf the house and senate have informed their farming constituency that Governor Harding was responsible for the soealled deflation policy of the board and that that "deflation" policy produced all their financial woes. It is intimated in administration circles today that President Harding vould like to reappoint Governor Harding, both because that act would please the business men of the United States and because he feels that Governor Harding's administration of the federal reserve act has been highly efficient. He is deterred, it is said. ' because of uncertainty as to the effect the reappointment would have on the farmers of the country. In all p?h matters the president is moving v ^ cause a new congress will be elected the coming fall. Governor Harding is not seeking re appointment. It is believed, however, that if reappointment came without solicitation, he would accent it.. Sen taor J. Thomas Heflin of Alabama, the ' bitterest critic of Harding, said som time ago that the president would not dare reappoint Harding, hut that if h?? did, the senate would refuse to confirm him. Representative Tincher of Kansas said today that if the pre ii dent wanted to defy the farmers of . the West he could do so by reappoint; ing Harding.
