CHICAGO'S EMINENT PREACHER
in Meyersdale Friday Eve. Jan. 5th,
Dr. Fred. E. Hopkin will deliver hig
celebrated lecture “The Golden
Fleece” in Smity Hall Friday Eve,
Jan. 5th under the direction of the
Lyceum Course,’ Admission 25 and
35 cents. Hopkins will be in Salis-
bury, Thurgday Eve. January 4th.
| The people of the Community ought
to avail themselves of the opportunity
to hear the noted lecturer and attend
the Courge.
FREDERICK E. HOPKINS.
Dr. Frederick BE. Hopkins, who is to
appear on this season’s Lyceum Course,
ifs a brilliant, magnetic and charming
speaker, an entertainer and an educa-
tor. He has a command of the Eng-
lish language that is particularly inter
esting to those who sit beneath his
spell. 5 :
During the last seven or eight’ years
of Lyceum work Dr. Hopkins has ap-
peared on more than 500 courses, and
in every case the audiences have been
enthusiastic over hig work. He brings
ta the platform a much needed mes.
. sage, and it may be safely said that
{ no man in years has made a more em-
FREDERICK E. HOPKINS.
phatic success with Lyeeum audiences.
Certainly no one is better equipped for
such work.
Recently the Chicago Examiner com-
mented as follows: “The Rev. Fred-
erick BE. Hopkins has stirred up the
biggest agitation Chicago has known
for a generation. Strong, virile, ear-
pest, he is the man that has started
something.”
The New York Sun says tbat Dr.
Hopkins is perhaps the most notable
living example of the moderii and im-
proved sort of gospel carrier. The
Sun adds. “When Parson Hopkins
preaches the ciurch is always ‘jui-
med to capacity,’ and no wonder at
all.”
Rhode Island and Textiles.
The first cotton mill in the United
States was builtin Pawtucket in Wash-
ington’s first administration. The mak-
ing of textiles has become Rhode Is-
land’s first industry. Some 60,000 per-
sons work in it, and its output is about
50 per cent of the manufactured prod-
ucts of the state, which, little as it is.
is fourth in the making of cotton goods
and third in the making of woolens
and worsteds.
Ready to Believe It.
A person who had got some little
smattering of zoclogical lore said one
day to a novice that crocodiles were
often seen in tears.
“Qh, that’s nothing!” rejoined the
novice. “I’ve often myself seen whales’
blubber!”—Stray Stories.
Patronizing.
“Flubdub has such a
manner.”
“Yes, he can’t pass a globe represent-
ing the world without patting it.” —
T.ouisville Courier-Journal.
A glad heart seldom sighs, but a sor-
rowful mouth often laughs.—Danish

An 2Act of Assembly, No. 263, ap-
proved the 28th day of May, 1915,
requires the Prothonotaries of the
Several Courts of Common Pleas of
this Commonwealth to provide an
Adsectum Judgment Index, which
and hig rates are reasonable. Give him | fixes the fees of the Prothonotaries
therefor. Hon. Wm. H. Ruppel,
President Judge of Somerset county,
the adsectum index system be in-
stalled in the office of the Phothono-
tary of Somerset County, and this
new system will begin January 1st,
1911.
Under this Adsectum system the
fees (payable in advance is the rule)
will be increased from $1.50 for
judgments entered by Plaintiff in
person, to $1.75; and for judgments
entered by Plaintiff’s attorneys from
$1.75 to $2.00, likewise an addi-
tional cost of 25 cents on Sci Fa’s and

tries of record which may require

record by the Plaintiff for protection
against possible loss and the Plain-
tiffs are liable to the prothonotary
for all entry fees, and they in turn
must look to the defendants for re-
imbursement. 2
