A SUCCESS The 28th, Anviyersary of Fair- view Baptist Church at Mayfield Sunday, The’ twenty-eighth anniversary Fairview Baptist clurch, Mayfield, Ky., was celebrated last Sunday at that place by perhaps one of the grandest turnouts of Christians for Christian) ake ever seen in that little city. The church is 28 years old. It has had fifteen pastors. The longest time anyone served was seven years and the shortest one month, and its life from the first until now is inte! iting and instructive. Rev. J. W. Hawkins, of the Washington street Baptist church of this city, had been engaged to preach the anniversary sermon, and when ler the occasion and the man, it is useless to say he preached it in all the fullness and meaning the term carries with it. Rev. McCutcheon, the pastor, had invited Revs. McFinley, of the C. M. E. church, Rev. Steward, P. E. of the Paducah district of the C. M. E. church and Rev. Howard, of the A. M. E. church; and all were pres- ent with as many of their mem- bers as could get into the church. Each pastor took up the collection. Rev. Hawkins preached three ser- mons, the church was greatly re- vived, the clouds that hung so heavily oyer that people were, for the most part, dispelled and now they see the star of hope. Rev. McCutcheon is to be congrat- ulated upon the success of the twen- ty-eighth anniversary of the church of which he is pastor, and upon se- curing the assistance of such men and ministers. The Mayblossom club will meet tonight in the basement of Washing- ton-street church. Refreshments will be served in abundance.

Yesterday afternoon at Sporting park, in mud and rain and siush, on the very spot where a few weeks ago a criticising public had the ap- parent hardness of heart to stay unto the end and eee our boys go down in defeat and even also down in the mouth, our boys won @ glorious vic- tory. The Graves county boys went down in defeat. If the Mayfields had made more and harder hits when hits were a cry- ing necessity, they might have beaten our boys, or at least done the next best thing, namely, given the splen- did audience a respectable run for their money, but they didn't do either. Whether it was the result of overconfidence or too much water in them is not known, but some are in- clined to think tha. it is due in no small measure, to superior playing on the part of our bo’ If the game was remarkable for any two features, those features were the determination on the part of both teams to play it. out rain or no rain and the uttr lack of ‘squabbling, a thing hardly ever absent at a cule hall game But our boys are hay will talk it for weeks to com War talk will get a rest, but their tongues won't, We'll need a rest on the sulject, but we won't get it; we'll jut have to be bombarded, and over and over again told how it all hap pened. ‘The fo'lowing is the score: 845 Paducah 2 8 2—13 Mayfield 221— 5 Mr. M.
