Some of the Butler pastors were reconnoitering about, the court house lawn on Monday morning as if they: were locating suitable places for heavy artillery. Such was really their purpose as was found out by inquiry. The bat- tery is to be put in action about 8 o’clock on Sunday evening. Just who is to deliver the bombard- ‘ment is held in secrecy. It will n|be the opening of the summer -| drive by the allied churches of the town. The weapons therefore will not be carnal. Let it be said in all seriousness that the local pastors of our several city church- es have at heart the welfare of the public, and that they have planned these union services to that end. It is expected to lead’ up to a union revival. effort early secrated e' in the fall led by an able and con- vangelist. Cornelius Roach in Bates County.
